AbuRa'ed, Ahmed Ghassan Tawfiq. „Automatic generation of descriptive related work reports“. Doctoral thesis, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2020. http://hdl.handle.net/10803/669975.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
A related work report is a section in a research paper which integrates key information from a list of related scientific papers providing context to the work being presented. Related work reports can either be descriptive or integrative. Integrative related work reports provide a high-level overview and critique of the scientific papers by comparing them with each other, providing fewer details of individual studies. Descriptive related work reports, instead, provide more in-depth information about each mentioned study providing information such as methods and results of the cited works.
In order to write a related work report, scientist have to identify, condense/summarize, and combine relevant information from different scientific papers. However, such task is complicated due to the available volume of scientific papers. In this context, the automatic generation of related work reports appears to be an important problem to tackle. The automatic generation of related work reports can be considered as an instance of the multi-document summarization problem where, given a list of scientific papers, the main objective is to automatically summarize those scientific papers and generate related work reports.
In order to study the problem of related work generation, we have developed a manually annotated, machine readable data-set of related work sections, cited papers (e.g. references) and sentences, together with an additional layer of papers citing the references. We have also investigated the relation between a citation context in a citing paper and the scientific paper it is citing so as to properly model cross-document relations and inform our summarization approach. Moreover, we have also investigated the identification of explicit and implicit citations to a given scientific paper which is an important task in several scientific text mining activities such as citation purpose identification, scientific opinion mining, and scientific summarization.
We present both extractive and abstractive methods to summarize a list of scientific papers by utilizing their citation network. The extractive approach follows three stages: scoring the sentences of the scientific papers based on their citation network, selecting sentences from each scientific paper to be mentioned in the related work report, and generating an organized related work report by grouping the sentences of the scientific papers that belong to the same topic together. On the other hand, the abstractive approach attempts to generate citation sentences to be included in a related work report, taking advantage of current sequence-to-sequence neural architectures and resources that we have created specifically for this task.
The thesis also presents and discusses automatic and manual evaluation of the generated related work reports showing the viability of the proposed approaches.La sección de trabajos relacionados de un artículo científico resume e integra información clave de una lista de documentos científicos relacionados con el trabajo que se presenta. Para redactar esta sección del artículo científico el autor debe identificar, condensar/resumir y combinar información relevante de diferentes artículos. Esta tarea es complicada debido al gran volumen disponible de artículos científicos. En este contexto, la generación automática de tales secciones es un problema importante a abordar. La generación automática de secciones de trabajo relacionados puede ser considerada como una instancia del problema de resumen de documentos múltiples donde, dada una lista de documentos científicos, el objetivo es resumir automáticamente esos documentos científicos y generar la sección de trabajos relacionados. Para estudiar este problema, hemos creado un corpus de secciones de trabajos relacionados anotado manualmente y procesado automáticamente. Asimismo, hemos investigado la relación entre las citaciones y el artículo científico que se cita para modelar adecuadamente las relaciones entre documentos y, así, informar nuestro método de resumen automático. Además, hemos investigado la identificación de citaciones implícitas a un artículo científico dado que es una tarea importante en varias actividades de minería de textos científicos. Presentamos métodos extractivos y abstractivos para resumir una lista de artículos científicos utilizando su red de citaciones. El enfoque extractivo sigue tres etapas: cálculo de la relevancia las oraciones de cada artículo en función de la red de citaciones, selección de oraciones de cada artículo científico para integrarlas en el resumen y generación de la sección de trabajos relacionados agrupando las oraciones por tema. Por otro lado, el enfoque abstractivo intenta generar citaciones para incluirlas en un resumen utilizando redes neuronales y recursos que hemos creado específicamente para esta tarea. La tesis también presenta y discute la evaluación automática y manual de los resúmenes generados automáticamente, demostrando la viabilidad de los enfoques propuestos.
Una secció d’antecedents o estat de l’art d’un articulo científic resumeix la informació clau d'una llista de documents científics relacionats amb el treball que es presenta. Per a redactar aquesta secció de l’article científic l’autor ha d’identificar, condensar / resumir i combinar informació rellevant de diferents articles. Aquesta activitat és complicada per causa del gran volum disponible d’articles científics. En aquest context, la generació automàtica d’aquestes seccions és un problema important a abordar. La generació automàtica d’antecedents o d’estat de l’art pot considerar-se com una instància del problema de resum de documents. Per estudiar aquest problema, es va crear un corpus de seccions d’estat de l’art d’articles científics manualment anotat i processat automàticament. Així mateix, es va investigar la relació entre citacions i l’article científic que es cita per modelar adequadament les relacions entre documents i, així, informar el nostre mètode de resum automàtic.

Presentem mètodes extractius i abstractius per resumir una llista d'articles científics utilitzant el conjunt de citacions de cada article. L’enfoc extractiu segueix tres etapes: càlcul de la rellevància de les oracions de cada article en funció de les seves citacions, selecció d’oracions de cada article científic per a integrar-les en el resum i generació de la secció de treballs relacionats agrupant les oracions per tema. Per un altre costat, l’enfoc abstractiu implementa la generació de citacions per a incloure-les en un resum que utilitza xarxes neuronals i recursos que hem creat específicament per a aquest tasca. La tesi també presenta i discuteix l'avaluació automàtica i el manual dels resums generats automàticament, demostrant la viabilitat dels mètodes proposats.

Peerless, Cathy Bufflap. „Storytellers' reports of the good work of storytelling“. Thesis, University of Hartford, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3620411.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Storytelling is often experienced as profound and transformative. Scholars view storytelling as both human essence and essential to human survival. This exploratory, qualitative study explored contemporary storytellers' reports of the good work of storytelling using the GoodWork Project (GWP) (Gardner, Csikszentmihalyi, and Damon, 2001) as the conceptual framework. Guided by the GWP this study examined cultural controls, social controls, individual standards, and outcome controls that impacted storytellers, their practice and good work.
This study applied the methodology of Gardner, Gregory, Csikszentmihalyi, Damon, and Michaelson (1997) and Gardner et al. (2001) to answer the primary research question, What do storytellers report regarding the good work of storytelling as conceptualized by the GWP (Gardner et al, 2001)? The unit of analysis was professional storytellers representing a population that that has not been studied any detailed and disciplined way. The cohort of a 12 storytellers, 3 men and nine women represented African American, Appalachian, Jewish, and Native American storytelling traditions. The protocol instrument consisted of inquiries in nine areas about their experiences, professional work, personal values, beliefs, opportunities and responsibilities relevant to storytelling.
The author conducted an in-depth one-on-one interview with 12 exemplary storytellers, all creative leaders. The complete interview was digitally recorded and transcribed verbatim. Storyteller responses comprised the data. The researcher hand-coded the content by hand, identifying eleven themes and GWP subtopics. For further data analysis, NVivo 10 text-analysis software was used. These steps categorized interviewees' statements according to richly interlinked motifs and ideas, which permitted the author to verify nodes showing the data's correspondence to the GWP conceptual framework.
Seven conclusions emanated from the findings describing storytellers' good work. The oral tradition, dedication to serving others, personal values, trust in storytelling community, culture and cultural heritage, and the paradox of technology impacted storytellers' good work. All of the storytellers interviewed and the overwhelming majority of contemporary scholarly literature agree with the argument that this dissertation develops, which is threefold: the human connection is at the heart of the power of story; second, the social environment for creative expression underlies the capacity of storytellers to do their professional work; and third, the opportunity to benefit other people, communities and support their own culture, also form critical features of storytellers' good work.
This study contributes to the view of storytelling as an art form and a leadership skill. It addresses the ethical questions of the use of stories and storytelling in business or corporate settings. This study described professional storytellers' experiences navigating complexities of the storytelling profession in today's highly technological and rapidly changing environment.

Throughout the nineties a range of factors, not least the series of suicides at Cornton Vale women's prison, highlighted concerns about how the criminal justice system deals with female offenders in Scotland. There has been a review of community-based disposals and the use of custody for women (Scottish Office, 1998a), an Inspection of Cornton Vale was conducted (HMI, 2001), and a Ministerial Group on Women's Offending was set up (Scottish Executive, 2002a). Despite this concern the numbers of female offenders being sentenced to custody has continued to rise. This study sought to examine the nature of criminal justice social work services delivered to female offenders and the way in which ideological and policy shifts have impacted on it. Differences relating to gender, with regard to both practitioners and clients, within the context of criminal justice social work in Scotland,w ere considered.T his included a consideration of the impact of the policy shift from the "welfare" to the "justice" model. Thirty-five interviews were conducted with criminal justice social work staff and material was drawn from 420 Social Enquiry Reports. The study examined practices and policies which relate to how women are supervised, how these relate to the presentation of information in social enquiry reports, and in turn how this may relate to the final court disposal imposed. A discrepancy between policy and practice was identified in that the latter draws on the "welfare" model more than is endorsed by formal policy. This greater emphasis on the "welfare" model applies to work with female offenders in particular. There were concerns amongst criminal justice social work staff that such a difference in approach might be discriminatory. A new "welfare" model of supervision appears to have been adopted in the supervision of female offenders. This model emphasised the importance of the working relationship, between supervisor and client, within which women offenders should be allowed scope for negotiation. Information on female offenders derived from both interviews with criminal justice staff and the data obtained from SERs is used to review social control theory (Hirschi, 1969), as it exists, as an explanation of female offending. Carlen's study (1988) of female offenders suggested that integral to their involvement in offending was a rejection of the controls to which they are subjected and of their gender roles. By contrast the profile of women offenders as identified in this study suggests that women are offending partly in an endeavour to conform to, or at least cope with, their gender roles. Female offenders were reported as having experienced greater adversity and this appears to havee licited a protective response from social workers. This protection began in women's childhoods and is evident in their treatment as adults. The organisation of community service is considered by female social workers to have an inherent gender bias which renders it less suitable for female offenders. These concerns appear to have foundation in terms of an apparent gender bias in the operation of community service schemes. Female offenders sentenced to community service were more likely to have had their SERs compiled by male SER writers, while female offenders sentenced to probation were more likely to have their SERs compiled by female SER writers. Female social workers specifically appear to adopt a stronger welfare orientation when compiling reports on female offenders apparently motivated by an inclination to protect. This has implications for gender specific allocation of work. The effect is not protection if reports arc undermining community service as a possible alternative to custody for women, as appears to be the case when the SER writer is female.

Hall, Christopher J. „Social work as narrative : an investigation of the social and literary nature of social work accounting“. Thesis, Brunel University, 1993. http://bura.brunel.ac.uk/handle/2438/5293.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This thesis investigates what can be gained by approaching social work reports and conversations as narratives. A conventional approach to social work accounting practices is to treat such documents as (more or less) accurate descriptions of social workers' clients, their problems and proposed remedies. Such a realist approach was found to be flawed, since it assumes straightforward access from accounts to external reality, not considering the constructedness of such documents. Drawing on theoretical themes from the sociology of scientific knowledge, literary theory, conversation analysis, ethnomethodology and sociolinguistics, this thesis explores the construction and reception of social work accounts as rhetorical, narrative and interactional processes. The documents analysed represent some of the occasions on which social workers describe and recommend social work intervention with children and their families - research interviews, court reports, internal memos, case file entries and journal reports. On these occasions, social work is performed and displayed in descriptions of people and their attributes, justifications for social work intervention and excuses for lack of success. The main theme of the thesis is that social work accounts can profitably be analysed as stories. To explain their work and their clients' world to a variety of audiences, social workers are heard to tell competent, professionally persuasive stories. A variety of storytelling features are explored, looking in particular at plot, character, the construction of the reader and the authority of the writer. Stories are heard to vary with reading occasions and critical audiences, and it is the study of reading relations which is a main focus of the analysis - to whom are these accounts addressed and how are they available to be read? Rhetorical features are investigated in order to understand how social work accounts are made available to be read as morally and factually persuasive. A critical reading is also offered, which questions the adequacy of the accounts, and makes available the possibility of reading unheard stories. Reflexive interludes comment on the claims of the thesis writer in terms of the efforts of the social work writer. The implications of this study are that treating social work accounts as textual accomplishments undermines social workers' claims for reporting objectively about their clients and their problems. Social work can be seen as constituted in and through the performance and reception of stories: doing competent social work is achieved through telling competent social work stories.

As-built schedules prepared during and after construction are valuable tools for State Highway Agencies (SHAs) to monitor construction progress, evaluate contractor's schedule performance, and defend against any potential disputes. However, previous studies indicate that current as-built schedule development methods are manual and rely on information scattered in various field diaries and meeting minutes. SHAs have started to collect field activity data in digital databases that can be used to automatically generate as-built schedules if proper computational algorithms are developed. This study develops computational algorithms and a prototype system to automatically generate and visualize project level and activity level as-built schedules during and after construction. The algorithm is validated using a real highway project data. The study is expected to significantly aid SHAs in making better use of field data, facilitate as-built schedule development, monitor construction progress with higher granularity, and utilize as-built schedule for productivity analysis.

Morgan, Candia Ruth. „An analysis of the discourse of written reports of investigative work in GCSE mathematics“. Thesis, University College London (University of London), 1995. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10019185/.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
The focus of this study is students' written reports of mathematical investigations carried out for examination at 16+. These coursework texts are produced within a discourse of 'investigation' that involves the students, their teachers and an official, practical and professional literature. This discourse has been examined through analysis of written and oral texts produced by the different groups. A method of analysis of mathematical texts has been developed, based on Halliday's functional grammar, using techniques of critical discourse analysis. This takes into account the ways in which mathematics, mathematical activity and the relationships between writer, reader and subject matter are constructed in the texts. The method was applied to a set of students' written reports of investigations, revealing some variety in the types of text and in the ideational and interpersonal functions served by the texts. The fact that coursework texts are examined by the student's teacher is a significant aspect of the context of their production. The assessment process was therefore investigated through interviews with mathematics teachers reading and assessing student texts. Tensions were identified between the stated aims of investigative work, the values of the assessment process and those of the traditional practices of mathematics and school mathematics. These tensions were manifested in the teachers' readings and assessments of the student texts and were resolved in various ways by different teachers. Textual features significant to the teachers' readings were identified and described although the teachers themselves generally appeared unable to describe explicitly the forms they would value highly. Teachers' responses to unusual or erroneous aspects were also explored. Variations in teachers' readings indicated that students' texts cannot be taken as transparent representations of their thinking.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
This study examines clients' reports of aspects of a single child health clinic visit and of a home visit by the health visitor. There are two foci of the thesis. First: recall; value and use of the advice/information selected by the client as the most important; second, an exploration of the meaning of support identified by some clients.Seven health visitors participated in the research, which incorporated two studies. In the first study, the researcher observed the content of discussions between 100 clients and the health visitor in child health clinics. These clients were then interviewed at home and asked questions about the advice/information received from the health visitor during theirprevious visit to the child health clinic.For the second study, information was recorded by the health visitor describing the content of 149 home visits. Clients were interviewed at home and asked similar questions regarding advice/information received from the health visitor. In addition, those clients who described receiving support were asked to describe the meaning to them of this aspectof the visit.Data analysis for both studies included descriptive and inferential statistics and content analysis.Findings from both studies indicate that recall of advice/information is related to the amount of advice/information given to the client. This may have implications for the amount of advice/information that health visitors are encouraged to provide.Advice/information received from the health visitor was generally valued and used by the mothers in both studies. Clients appeared most likely to be dissatisfied when topics had been raised which they had no interest in discussing. It is suggested that that there may be correspondence between some clients' descriptions of support, and taxonomies of social support found in social support literature. An exploration of health visiting work employing the concepts of social support is recommended.

There is a need to learn more about how managers use accounting information. This thesis investigates how managers make use of business reports; as they are one of the ways managers receive information. Previous research was found to broadly correspond to four important aspects affecting how managers make use of business reports; aggregation, timeliness, flexibility and dimensions. A case study was conducted at NCC Construction. The main findings from this study are that managers have the possibility to view information in the reports at their desired level of specificity and they are not concerned about the issue of timeliness. Furthermore they are satisfied with flexibility in reports, but wish for more capabilities and do not desire non-financial information in reports. Therefore the four aspects are found to no longer be a hindrance to managers in their use of business reports as much as could be expected from previous studies. Technological developments and business practices are found to have changed managerial work. Reporting has become faster and is more accurately reflecting the real world operations, making business reports more useful to managers.

Thesis (MBA)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.The MBA programme at the USB comprises two main parts, namely coursework and a research report. Students need to successfully complete both in order to graduate; however, a percentage of students are unsuccessful in that they either a) fail to complete the coursework as well as the research report, or b) successfully complete the coursework but fail to complete the research report. Those in the first category manage to cut their losses by preventing further expenditure of resources; however, those in the second category risk failure after full investment of time and money. The USB has seen an increase in the number of students from the second category; it is an undesirable outcome which needs to be addressed at the institutional and individual level. This research report aims to assist the USB in gaining more insight into this problem, and in addressing it effectively. Since the students themselves are pivotal in the MBA research phase, the research for this report took the form of live, in-depth interviews with MBA students at the USB who have successfully completed their coursework, but have not submitted their research report. The semi-structured interviews were based on themes highlighted in the literature on academic non-completion and delay. The most prominent contributing factors identified, were: a) inadequate preparation for research, which impacted on self-efficacy, i.e. the student’s belief in his/her own research competence; b) student motivation levels, which are influenced by the lack of intrinsic motivation to study, and by perceiving the research report to be irrelevant to their goals; c) timing of topic choice, which some felt came too early and did not allow an informed choice, and which others felt came too late and reduced the research time; and d) the lack of structure and deadlines during the research phase, which was problematic given the students’ expressed need for external pressure to prioritise the research report. In the light of the above factors, suitable recommendations are made on how the USB could address the problem.

Students’ and teachers’ own choices and actions – their agency – are an integral part of language education, yet we know little about agency in specific classroom contexts. One such context is when students search for information online as part of their foreign language education. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the agency enacted through the choices and actions of six upper secondary Spanish students and their teacher. Their choices and actions take place while they are working with a task that asks the students to read authentic web sites with text originally written in Spanish for a native Spanish speaking audience. Using a sociocultural perspective on the process of language learning in this task, the research question is: Through what choices, actions and reports do the students and the teacher exercise and express their agency? The study was carried out in two student groups in their second year at upper secondary school. Primary data were collected during the first lesson of a theme and consist of multiple sources, including computer screen recordings, sound and video uptake along with prompted interviews performed with both students and teacher. The main findings suggest that student and teacher choices and actions did not cohere, due to different objects of their respective activity system. The data shows that when students search for information online as a part of their language studies, they: Act as producers at the same time as consumers Multitask Translanguage Focus on end product more than the learning process Divide their work between them rather than work collaboratively Finding “third spaces” – where students’ home practices are not easily applied to student or teacher objects of the activity systems, leads to a discussion concerning language view and language learning through the use of the Internet.

This study aims to discuss the teacher process of education and the construction of (re)configurations about the teacher s work in reports, produced by prospective teachers, in a discipline Teaching Practice in Portuguese Language, undergraduate Letters students at a public university in Paraíba, northeastern Brazil, in 2006. The theoretical-methodological framework of this research is based on the Sociodiscursive interactionism (ISD), as presented by Bronckart (1997, 1999, 2004, 2006). Besides this main theoretical framework, this study was also based on other theoretical frameworks: the Activity-Clinic (Clot, 1999; Clot, 2001; Clot et al., 2001) and the Activity Ergonomy (Amigues, 2004; Saujat, 2004). The interpretative analysis highlights the most salient (re)configurations in the reports made by trainee teachers. As analysis procedures, we examine in each text its wider production context; internal questions organization, enunciative marks and semantic characteristics in the organization and interpretation of acting in the work, adopting as analysis categories the constituent elements of action as per the model projected by Bronckart (1997, 1999) and reviewed by Machado (2009). Results show that native language teachers´ work is represented as an interactive, instrumental and mental activity, which involves motive, intention and capacity. It is a work above all subject to evaluations, which focus mainly on the way to act the actants involved in conducting the activities. The study shows therefore the need to observe the various dimensions that involve the work of the teacher who is in the process of formation.

Como fundamentação teórica e para a análise de dados, foram adotados os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos do Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo, vertente interdisciplinar da psicologia da linguagem, de base vigotskiana, que atribui ao agir e à linguagem um papel fundamental no desenvolvimento humano (BRONCKART, 1997/99 e 2004). Foram assumidos, também, aportes teóricos da Ergonomia da Atividade (SAUJAT, 2002 e 2004; AMIGUES, 2002; 2003; 2004), e da Clínica da Atividade (CLOT, 1999; CLOT e FAÏTA, 2002), disciplinas que estudam a atividade de trabalho situada à luz da psicologia interacionista social de Vygotsky e da filosofia da linguagem de Bakhtin, o que as faz compatíveis com o interacionismo sociodiscursivo. Na metodologia apresentamos os dados que foram coletados no curso de Letras, da Universidade Federal da Paraíba, sendo constituídos por relatórios de estágio produzidos para a disciplina de Prática de Ensino de Língua Portuguesa. A análise de cunho interpretativo discute as (re)configurações mais salientes nos relatórios produzidos pelos estagiários. Como procedimentos de análise, procuramos verificar, em cada texto, o seu contexto de produção mais amplo, passando pelas questões de sua organização interna, marcas enunciativas e pelas suas características semânticas na organização e interpretação do agir no trabalho, o que nos permitiu detectar modos de agir da categoria profissional professor. Os dados nos mostram que o trabalho do professor de língua materna configura-se como um trabalho de caráter interacional, instrumental, e mental, que compreende capacidades, motivos e intenções. É um trabalho, sobretudo, sujeito a avaliações, que incidem, principalmente, sobre o modo de agir dos actantes envolvidos na realização das atividades. O estudo aponta, portanto, para a necessidade de se contemplar as diversas dimensões que permeiam a ação docente no processo de formação de professores.

Introdução: O Código de Processo Civil determina que nos processos judiciais em que a matéria depender de conhecimento técnico ou científico, o juiz será assistido por perito, que produzirá um laudo. Foram analisados 83 laudos de processos judiciais do Tribunal Regional do Trabalho da 2ª Região (TRT-2), referentes a reclamantes com Lesões por Esforços Repetitivos ou Distúrbios Osteomusculares Relacionados ao Trabalho (LER/Dort), que abrangem afecções crônicas do sistema musculoesquelético de origem ocupacional e são decorrentes, dentre outros motivos, da execução de movimentos repetitivos por tempo prolongado e sobrecarga estática, sem que haja tempo para uma recuperação fisiológica. Deveriam abordar os vários aspectos do adoecimento para auxiliar a decisão judicial quanto à existência de agravo à saúde relacionado ao trabalho, assim como sua extensão e repercussões sobre a vida e capacidade laboral do trabalhador. Objetivos: Identificar e analisar, nos laudos, conceitos sobre adoecimento ocupacional e incapacidade laboral, bem como as principais linhas de argumentação, para a descaracterização do nexo causal nos casos em que havia nexo causal presumido pelo critério epidemiológico. Material e método: O material de estudo (83 laudos) foi buscado dentre os processos arquivados no período de 2012 a 2016 na Coordenadoria de Gestão de Arquivo do TRT-2, que abrange 30 municípios da região metropolitana de São Paulo e Baixada Santista. Atributos associados aos grandes temas da pesquisa foram codificados com o objetivo de melhor sistematização para uma análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Os laudos periciais foram elaborados, na sua quase totalidade por médicos, dentre os quais 56 (67,47%) médicos do trabalho, 13 (15,66%) médicos sem especificação de especialidade, 9 (10,84%) médicos com especialização em perícia ou legistas e 4 ortopedistas (4,82%). Um deles (1,21%) foi elaborado por fisioterapeuta. Do total de laudos, 25 (30,12%) não tinham quaisquer informações sobre o processo de adoecimento e apenas 23 (27,71%) contemplaram uma história clínica abrangente. Em 34 (40,96%) não havia qualquer informação sobre as características da atividade de trabalho e em 30 (36,15%) havia a citação de alguns aspectos biomecânicos. Apenas 19 (22,89%) apresentaram uma análise da atividade de trabalho, incluindo aspectos biomecânicos e organizacionais. Nenhum laudo continha uma análise da incapacidade para o trabalho de forma ampla, sendo que em 50 laudos (60,24%), o perito considerou apenas o diagnóstico para se pronunciar sobre a incapacidade. Do total dos laudos, apenas 13 (15,66%) utilizaram o conceito de multicausalidade e 12 (14,46%) o de concausalidade. Dos 15 laudos com nexo causal presumido pelo critério epidemiológico, descaracterizados no caráter ocupacional na perícia, nenhum continha uma análise da atividade de trabalho, embora 9 deles tenham utilizado argumentos biomecânicos, 8 tenham utilizado o argumento de que se tratava de doença degenerativa e 3 de que o quadro era de fibromialgia não ocupacional. Foram discutidos conceitos de adoecimento ocupacional, nexo causal e incapacidade, além da relação de desigualdade, presenteísmo, individualização do adoecimento e culpabilização. Conclusão: A maioria dos laudos periciais peca pela falta de consistência conceitual, metodológica e argumentos fundamentados, deixando lacunas na área clínica, na análise da atividade de trabalho e na avaliação de incapacidade.Introduction: The Civil Code Procedure determines that in judicial proceedings in which the matter depends on technical or scientific knowledge, the judge will be assisted by experts, who will produce a forensic report. A total of 83 reports, from the Regional Labor Court of the 2nd Region (TRT-2), were analysed, concerning claimants suffering from Repetitive Strain Injury or Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (RSI/WRMD), which include occupational chronic conditions of the musculoskeletal system, that are due, among other reason to the execution of repetitive movements for a prolonged time and static overload without pause foa a physiological recoevery. They should address the various aspects of illness in order to assist the judge in his decision regarding the existence of as aggravated health related to work, as well as its extent and repercussions on the life and work capacity of the worker. Objectives: To identify and analyse concepts about occupational illness and disability to work, expressed in the reports, as well as the main lines of argument, for the de-characterization of the causal nexus in cases where there was causal nexus presumed by the epidemiological criterion. Material and method: The study material was searched from the archived processes from 2012 to 2016 in the File Management Coordination of TRT-2, which covers 30 municipalities in the metropolitan region of São Paulo and Baixada Santista. Attributes associated with the major themes of the research were codified with the aim of better systematization for a content analysis. Results: The expert reports were elaborated almost entirely by physicians, among them 56 (67.47%) occupational physicians, 13 (15.66%) doctors without a declared specialty, 9 (10.84%), forensic doctors, 4 orthopedists (4,82%). One of the reports (1.21%) was elaborated by a physiotherapist. Of the total reports, 25 (30.12%) did not have information about the illness process and only 23 (27.71%) contemplated a comprehensive medical history. In 34 (40.96%) there was no information about the characteristics of the work activity and in 30 (36.15%) there were citation of some biomechanical aspects. Only 19 (22.89%) presented an analysis of the work activity, including biomechanical and organizational aspects. No report contained an embrancing analysis of disability to work comprehensively, and in 60.24% of them, the expert considered only the diagnosis to pronounce on the disability. Of the total reports, only 13 (15.66%) used the concept of multicausality and 12 (14.46%) the concept of concausality. Of the 15 reports with a presumed causal nexus by the epidemiological criterion, which were not characterized in the occupational character, none contained an analysis of the work activity, although 9 of the 15 reports used biomechanical arguments to de-characterize the occupational character, 8 used the argument that it was degenerative disease and 3 that the condition was non-occupational fibromyalgia. Concepts of occupational illness, causal nexus and disability were discussed, as well as the relationship of inequality, presenteism, individualization of illness and blame. Conclusions: Most of the expert reports are lacking in conceptual, methodological and reasoned arguments, leaving relevant gaps in the clinical area, in the analysis of the work activities and in the assessment of disability.

Background: Stroke is the fifth leading cause of death in Tennessee. The Tennessee Stroke Registry (TSR) Act requires East Tennessee State University’s College of Public Health to maintain a stroke database of participating hospitals and produce an annual report. Currently, twelve hospitals submit data to the TSR.
Objectives: The TSR seeks to provide stroke information to Tennessee residents, policy makers, and health-care professionals. This presentation will highlight the key findings of the 2015 TSR report and will serve as an update to the 2014 report presented at the 2015 Tennessee Public Health Association conference.
Methods: Data for the TSR was collected via Quintiles, American Heart Association’s online database. Microsoft Excel and ArcMap 10.3.x were used to conduct a descriptive analysis of stroke across Tennessee, observing characteristics of both stroke overall and of individual subtypes.
Results: Seventy-nine percent of strokes in Tennessee in 2015 were ischemic. Some subtypes showed significantly different proportions of males versus females. For instance, females made up 63% of subarachnoid hemorrhage patients. The average age of stroke patients in Tennessee was 67.1 years, but varied for subtypes, ranging from 58.2 to 69 years. The majority of stroke patients (75.1%) had a recorded history of hypertension. Counties with high stroke mortality rates tended to cluster in areas of few certified stroke centers.
Conclusion: Stroke subtypes exhibited different characteristics than stroke overall and geographic disparities were highlighted through the descriptive mapping. Identifying and understanding these differences and disparities can help in addressing ways to improve stroke care in Tennessee.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAnnotation:
Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (VEMPs) are short-latency electromyograms evoked by high-level acoustic stimuli recorded from surface electrodes over the tonically contracted sternocleidomastoid (SCM) muscle. These responses are presumed to originate in the saccule. The purpose of this preliminary report is to provide an overview of our initial experience with the VEMP by describing the responses obtained in five subjects. Click-evoked VEMPs were present at short latencies in two normal-hearing subjects, one patient with profound congenital sensorineural hearing loss, and one patient with a severe sensorineural hearing loss due to Meniere's disease. Additionally, VEMPs were absent in a patient with profound sensorineural hearing loss following removal of a cerebellopontine angle tumor. The amplitude of the VEMP was influenced by the amount of background activity of the SCM muscle, stimulus level, and stimulus frequency. Tone-burst evoked responses showed an inverse relationship between stimulus frequency and response latency. VEMPs may prove to be a reliable technique in the clinical assessment of vestibular function.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the perceived anxiety experienced by coronary care nurses working eight- and 12-hour work shifts. It was hypothesized that length of shift work affects the before- and after-shift anxiety for nurses working eight- or 12-hour work shifts. Anxiety differences between the eight- and 12-hour work shifts were examined as well as differences between the before- and after-shift anxiety for each length of shift.Thirty-two (32) coronary care nurses from a general medical and surgical hospital in the Midwest volunteered to participate in the research. The sample consisted of all females (18 Registered Nurses, nine Licensed Practical Nurses, three charge nurses, a supervisory nurse, and a rehabilitation nurse). The nurses had voluntarily selected the eight- or 12-hour length of shift work and understood that they would be committed towork that shift for one year. Twelve nurses worked the eight-hour shift; 20 nurses chose the new 12-hour shift.The State Anxiety Inventory (SAI) was used to measure the nurses' before- and after-shift anxiety. Baseline data were collected from the nurses prior to the initiation of the 12-hour shift. The Box-Jenkins Time Series Analysis was used to analyze the daily before- and after-shift anxiety scores and to establish a forecasted trend for both the eight- and 12-hour shifts.The first finding was that the before-shift anxiety scores for the eight-hour workers declined, while the anxiety scores for the 12-hour workers increased, following the implementation of the 12-hour shift. The same trend was forecast for the after-shift anxiety scores. The eight-hour nurses' after-shift anxiety scores declined while the 12-hour nurses' anxiety scores increased. A transfer function was conducted for both the eight-hour and 12-hour before- and after-shift anxiety scores. No predictive trend could be established for the eight-hour anxiety scores; however, the 12-hour after-shift anxiety scores were found to be consistently higher than before-shift anxiety scores.Department of Counseling Psychology and Guidance Services

This study aims at analyzing how teachers in pre-service practice represent teaching in internship reports taking into consideration their own work and the in-service teachers' work. Our research is featured by the transdisciplinary approach of Applied Linguistics (AL) since it was adopted the views of the Sociodiscursive Interactionism (SDI) which conceives that language has a fundamental role in the understanding of human development (BRONCKART, 2006; 2008; [1999]2009), as well as the views of the Sciences of Work, such as the Activity Ergonomics (AMIGUES, 2004; SAUJAT, 2004) and the Activity Clinic (CLOT, [1999]2007), which are disciplines compatible with the former theory. Our data consist of sixteen reports written by students of the Supervised Internship V module of the undergraduate course of Letras Inglês (Modern Languages - English) of the Federal University of Paraiba. Our goals in analyzing these texts were to identify the representations of the teaching work in relation to how the prescriptions and the real activity were made explicit in the reports. These texts have shown that there is a more wide-ranging description and evaluation of the in-service teachers' work in relation to the pre-service teacher s; that the work prescribed by the in-service teacher is almost always reformulated by the pre-service teacher; and that the pre-service teachers' real activity is still sparsely discussed in the reports. The study reveals the need to implement the guidelines given by the supervised internship teacher in order to foster discussions about the pre-service teachers' work that unveils the real activity. The study also brings to light the need of having the supervised internship report as an academic genre to be understood more as a reflexive mechanism and less as an evaluation tool.
Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar como as representações sobre o trabalho docente são construídas a partir do agir do professor regente e do agir do professor em formação nos relatórios de estágio. Nossa pesquisa se insere no grande panorama da Linguística Aplicada (LA) no que concerne ao caráter interdisciplinar, pois utilizamos o aparato teórico-metodológico do Interacionismo Sociodiscursivo (ISD), que atribui à linguagem um papel fundamental para se entender o desenvolvimento humano (BRONCKART, 2006; 2008; [1999]2009), como também os aportes teóricos das Ciências do Trabalho, tais como a Ergonomia da Atividade (AMIGUES, 2004; SAUJAT, 2004) e a Clínica da Atividade (CLOT, [1999]2007), que, igualmente, norteiam nossas reflexões, estando alicerçadas nos pressupostos do programa teórico do ISD. Nosso corpus constitui-se de dezesseis relatórios produzidos por alunos da disciplina de Estágio Supervisionado V do curso de Letras Inglês da Universidade Federal da Paraíba. Objetivamos, a partir do estudo desses textos, identificar como as representações do agir docente são evidenciadas nos relatórios a partir das prescrições e do real da atividade. Os dados nos mostraram que existe uma maior descrição e avaliação do agir do professor regente em detrimento do agir do professor em formação; que o trabalho prescrito pelo professor regente é quase sempre reconfigurado pelo professor em formação; e que o real da atividade do estagiário ainda é pouco evidenciado e discutido nos relatórios. O estudo aponta para uma necessidade de se implementar o encaminhamento fornecido pelo professor formador do estágio no sentido a favorecer discussões sobre o agir do professor em formação que revelem o real de sua atividade e para que o gênero acadêmico relatório de estágio seja entendido mais como um instrumento reflexivo e menos como uma ferramenta avaliativa.

Although violence in schools has received increasing attention in the media in Trinidad and Tobago over the past decade, the limited existing data on school violence is concerning. The present investigation utilizes newspaper articles from the three main newspaper outlets as textual data to explore the framing of school violence in Trinidad and Tobago. Research shows the manner in which the media report on school violence influences public perceptions, gives rise to particular attitudes and can influence decisions by policymakers (Jacobs, 2014). This investigation aims to assess for school violence using the question: How is school violence portrayed in print media in Trinidad and Tobago. Specifically, we will examine: 1) the characteristics of these reports on school violence in print media and 2) the similarities and differences between print news sources related to school violence. The exploration of these research questions will provide a framework for exploring how findings on school violence may impact public perception and subsequent prevention of school violence in Trinidad and Tobago.

BACKGROUND: The influenza virus is uniquely capable of creating pandemic illness in our population. The unpredictability of pandemics necessitates plans that will allow registered nurses to expand current capacity to care for ill individuals. It has been documented that personnel resources, often nurses, are a limiting factor in the health care system’s ability to care for large influxes of patients. Prior research has shown that an outbreak of an infectious disease, such as influenza, may lead to healthcare workers (HCWs) intentionally staying out of work. The potential increase in patient demand coupled with a decrease in the number of critical care nurses reporting to work will strain the ability of healthcare systems to meet the needs of patients. To date, research has not studied critical care nurses’ intentions to report to work during a pandemic influenza. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the percent of critical care nurses that intend to report to work during an influenza pandemic. Covariates that may influence CCNs intention to report included personal, professional, and employer characteristics. Additionally, the impact of threat (perceived susceptibility to influenza and perceived severity of an influenza pandemic) and efficacy (perceived self-efficacy and perceived efficacy of the overall response) on intentions were analyzed. METHODS: A cross-sectional and descriptive design was utilized. Participants were recruited through the American Association of Critical Care Nurses. The final sample totaled 245 critical care nurses from across the United States. The participants completed an adapted version of the Johns Hopkins Public Health Infrastructure Response Survey Tool (JH~PHIRST) as well as personal demographics and information on their primary employer. Data were analyzed using bivariate methods and logistic regression. RESULTS: This study found that nearly 87% of CCNs intend to report during a pandemic flu, but this number drops to 78% if severity of the pandemic is factored in and further declines to 63% if the CCNs are asked to work extra. Perceived self-efficacy is a primary factor in explaining CCNs intend to report to work. CCNs with high perceived self-efficacy were6.221 (95% CI: 2.638-14.673) times more likely to report than those with low perceived self-efficacy. Perceived self-efficacy continues to significantly impact intentions to report to work when the severity of the pandemic is considered as well as when CCNs are asked to work extra. CCNs with high perceived self-efficacy are consistently, significantly more likely to intend to report than those with low perceived self-efficacy. CONCLUSION: Perceived self-efficacy is related to CCN intentions to report to work during a pandemic flu emergency. Future research should examine methods for increasing CCN perceived self-efficacy, including professional, educational and employment factors

There is a dearth of information about how students with visual impairments learn science-process skills. The study presented here investigated students' concepts and skills in one science area: the estimation of measurements. The estimation of measurements is one of the fundamental concepts that connects all science disciplines that provide the necessary skills to understand the natural world (National Research Council, 1996; Roth & Roychoudhury, 1993) and is an instructional goal at every grade level of the Mathematics Standards (National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, 2000). Estimating is as important in the science laboratory as it is in real-world environments. In the laboratory, students are asked to make measurements using tools, such as rulers, balances, and beakers, all of which typically rely on visual perception. Although adaptive technologies are available to a small sample of students, these tools are not universally available for those who need them in mainstream classes (Jones, Taylor, & Broadwell, 2009a). The purpose of this study was to document the reported experiences of students with visual impairments with estimating measurements, as well as the students' conceptualizations of linear distances and accurate estimations.

This thesis focused on factors contributing to improved work environment in small-scale enterprises and sustainable health for the entrepreneurs. In Study I, implementation of the provision of Systematic Work Environment Management (SWEM) with and without support was investigated. Two implementation methods were used, supervised and network method. The effect of the project reached the employees faster in the enterprises with the supervised method. In general, the work environment improved in all enterprises. However, extensive support to small-scale enterprises in terms of advice and networking aimed at fulfilling SWEM regulations had limited effect – especially considering the cost of applying these methods. Studies II, III, and IV focused on entrepreneurs’ health, work conditions, strategies for maintaining good health, and utilisation of Occupational Health Service (OHS). A closed cohort of entrepreneurs in ten different trades responded to two self-administered questionnaires on health and work conditions, with five years between the surveys: at baseline, 496 entrepreneurs responded, and 251 entrepreneurs responded at follow-up. Differences were tested by Chi2-test, and associations estimated with logistic regression analyses. Qualitative interviews on entrepreneurs’ strategies for maintaining good health were included. In Study II, the most frequently reported complaints, musculoskeletal pain and mental health problems, were associated with poor job satisfaction and poor physical work environment. In Study III, consistent self-reported good health, i.e. good health both at baseline and at follow up, was associated with self-valued good social life when adjusted for physical work conditions and job satisfaction. Entrepreneurs’ strategies for maintaining good health included good planning and control over work, flexibility at work, good social contact with family, friends and other entrepreneurs, and regular physical exercise. Study IV concerned entrepreneur’s utilisation of OHS. Entrepreneurs affiliated to OHS had either better or more adverse work conditions than non-affiliated entrepreneurs. Medical care and health check-ups were the services most utilised. Affiliation to OHS correlated with use of specific information sources and active work environment management. The entrepreneurs were not consistently affiliated to OHS over the five-year-period.

The dissertation presents evidence on the measurement properties of self-report items in contemporary organizational contexts (Podsakoff & Organ, 1986). Operationally, the dissertation adopts a construct representation approach to construct validity, defined by the response processes engaged for measurement performance in trait assessment (AERA, 2014; Embretson, 1983). For example, self-report measures are known to be affected by a variety of variables, such as semantic and referent features (Cermac & Craik, 1979; Kelly, 1955) and design factors that impact cognitive context (Stone, et al, 2000; The Science of Self-Report). In turn, the response processes impacts the external correlations (Embretson, 2007). To the extent that semantic-referent features and design factors are construct-irrelevant, reduced external correlations can be expected. This dissertation presents evidence from a qualitative review of self-report future time perspective (FTP) instruments across organizational and retirement contexts. A quantitative review compares external correlates of the two instruments. A retrospective-observational study benchmarks the psychometric properties of Carstensen's self-report instrument using modern latent-variable modeling (item-response theory [IRT]). Structural equation modeling (SEM) is further used to test for moderating effects of subjective life expectancy (SLE) on latent predictors of FTP and retirement plans. Evidence from a '3 x 2' mixed-subjects experimental design is also presented indicating the effects of subjective life expectancy (SLE) on measurement error in personality factors, FTP, and retirement plans. Discussion centers on advancing measurement paradigms in psychological and education research, as well as -more generally- adopting an integrated perspective of construct validity for advancing and evaluating substantive research.

This study explored social workers’ use of humor with clients in therapy. The main objective of this study was to ascertain whether clinicians initiate humor in therapy. If, indeed humor was initiated, why, to what extent and how facilitative is the clinician’s use of humor in regards to the working-relationship, which includes the therapeutic process. This study adopted Lazarus’s Cognitive Appraisal Theory in order to determine if the use of humor aids the client in the appraisal process. The sample included 11 members from the National Association of Black Social Workers and 19 members from the Clinical Social Workers and Social Work Private Practice Yahoo!

Ces dix dernières années, l'étude des réseaux petits-mondes a montré une grande stabilité de certaines métriques issues de la théorie des graphes formels. Elle porte sur l'analyse de réseaux traduisant des activités de l'homme : réseaux d'échanges téléphoniques, de connexions aériennes, de navigation sur le Web, de structure des lexiques linguistiques, mais également de réseaux de diffusion des épidémies ou de réseaux de relations sociales. En revanche, peu d'études ont porté sur l'analyse de la dynamique de ces graphes et leur évolution au cours du temps. C'est cette approche que nous développons dans ce document. Nous nous intéressons ici à des graphes obtenus à partir de comptes rendus professionnels de travailleurs sociaux. Ces graphes modélisent les cooccurrences des mots au sein des phrases. Notre analyse porte sur un lexique professionnel et sur l'évolution de son usage sur une période de près de 40 ans. Après avoir constitué notre matériel à partir des textes écrits (environ 1500 pages dactylographiées), ce corpus d'étude a été quantifié, vérifié, homogénéisé et traité orthographiquement sur un mode semi-automatique. Puis ce corpus normalisé a donné lieu à la constitution d'un graphe global pour la période complète, et d'une quarantaine de graphes pour chacune des sous-périodes étudiées. C'est sur ceux-ci que porte l'analyse de la dynamique d'évolution de graphe issu d'un lexique professionnel. Au final, notre travail permet de pointer le paradoxe existant, entre d'une part la contrainte d'écriture liée à un objet qui ne change que très peu dans la nature de sa mission (le travail d'un éducateur de rue) et d'autre part la permissivité du langage oral qui ne cesse d'évoluer (le langage professionnel). Par ailleurs notre approche propose une certaine automatisation pour dégager l'essentiel d'un "dire professionnel" dans un corpus de comptes rendus.

Background: Case reports are presented on four Veterans, aged 29–46 years, who complained of chronic dizziness and/or postural instability following blast exposures. Two of the four individuals were diagnosed with mild traumatic brain injury and three of the four were exposed to multiple blasts. Comprehensive vestibular, balance, gait, audiometry and neuroimaging procedures were used to characterize their injuries.Case report: Vestibular assessment included videonystagmography, rotary chair and cervical and ocular vestibular evoked myogenic potentials. Balance and gait testing included the sensory organization test, preferred gait speed and the dynamic gait index. Audiometric studies included pure tone audiometry and middle-ear measurements. Neuroimaging procedures included high resolution structural magnetic resonance imaging, susceptibility-weighted imaging and diffusion-tensor imaging.Findings: Based on the neuroimaging and vestibular and balance test results, it was found that all individuals had diffuse axonal injuries and all had one or more micro-hemorrhages or vascular anomalies. Three of the four individuals had abnormal vestibular function, all had abnormally slow walking speeds and two had abnormal gait and balance dysfunction.Conclusion: The use of contemporary neuroimaging studies in conjunction with comprehensive vestibular and balance assessment provided a better understanding of the pathophysiology and pathoanatomy of dizziness following blast exposures than standard vestibular and balance testing alone.
