Abstract [en]

This qualitative study contains a critical discourse analysis of media's portrayal of children's consumption of advanced skincare. The purpose of this study is to analyze how the discussion about children's skincare consumption is portrayed in the news media, and identify discursive patterns and themes based on the textual content of the articles. The analysis concerns eight articles from varied news media, which has been analyzed based on Norman Fairclough's three-dimensional model. To carry out this analysis, the study is based on two questions. These are about how children's skincare consumption is portrayed in news articles, as well as which patterns we can identify in how children's skincare consumption is represented in media. 

The conclusions we can draw based on our critical discourse analysis is that the media presents this discussion as problematic, as we have been able to identify discursive themes that strengthen and clarify the content of the articles. We have also seen an interplay and recurring patterns in the material's textual content, where we can, among other things, identify the same words and structure in the articles.

Abstract [sv]

Denna kvalitativa studie innehåller en kritisk diskursanalys om medias skildring gällande barns konsumtion av avancerad hudvård. Syftet med studien är att analysera hur diskussionen angående barns hudvårdskonsumtion framställs nyhetsmedia, samt identifiera diskursiva mönster och teman utifrån artiklarnas textinnehåll. Analysen berör åtta artiklar från varierade nyhetsmedier, som har analyserats utifrån Norman Fairclough’s tredimensionella modell. För att kunna genomföra denna analys har studien utgått ifrån två frågeställningar. Dessa handlar om hur barns hudvårdskonsumtion skildras i nyhetsartiklarna, samt vilka mönster vi kan identifiera i hur barns hudvårdskonsumtion framställs i media.

De slutsatser vi kan dra utifrån vår kritiska diskursanalys är att media framställer denna diskussion som problematisk, då vi har kunnat identifierat diskursiva teman som stärker och tydliggör artiklarnas innehåll. Vi har även sett ett samspel och återkommande mönster i materialets textinnehåll, där vi bland annat kan identifiera samma ord och struktur i artiklarna.
