Full textAbstract:
Les polymères de coordination poreux, plus communément connus comme des MOF « Metal-Organic Frameworks » sont une classe émergente de matériaux poreux formés par assemblage d’ions métalliques et de ligands organiques. En raison de leurs structures et propriétés, les MOF ont suscité un grand intérêt pour un large éventail d’applications, principalement au stockage et à la séparation des gaz, à la catalyse, à l’optique, au stockage d’énergie…. L’un des principaux avantages de ces matériaux repose sur la possibilité de moduler, voire améliorer leurs propriétés par la fonctionnalisation. La fonctionnalisation de ces matériaux s’effectue en grande majorité par voie chimique humide qui présente souvent quelques contraintes, notamment la durée des réactions, le coût énergétique…. Les travaux présentés dans ce mémoire concernent l’étude de la fonctionnalisation de ces matériaux par une voie chimique sèche, en l’occurrence par un traitement plasma de type décharge à barrière diélectrique en régime impulsionnel (I-DBD). À notre connaissance, aucun procédé de fonctionnalisation des MOF par plasma n’a encore été étudié dans la littérature. L’objectif principal de cette thèse est d’étudier la fonctionnalisation de ces matériaux par DBD par greffage de groupements amines. Une étude paramétrique des conditions de décharge DBD a permis de déterminer les paramètres/conditions de la décharge DBD les plus favorables à la production de radicaux azotés dans le plasma. Ainsi, cette production est favorisée par l’utilisation d’un plasma de NH3 comparativement aux plasmas N2/H2 ou Ar/N2/H2. En outre, les conditions de décharges optimisées pour réaliser des traitement DBD en régime impulsionnel en NH3 sont comme suit ; une tension de 6 kVp-p, une fréquence de 4 kHz, une distance inter-électrode de 3 mm et une pression de 104 Pa. Une première étude de pré-fonctionnalisation de l’acide téréphtalique a montré l’efficacité du procédé DBD à greffer des groupements a mines sur le ligand de pontage. Ces travaux se sont poursuivis avec l’étude approfondie du traitement par plasma DBD de deux MOF : MOF-5 à base de zinc et le MIL-53 à base d’aluminium. Ces investigations ont mis en évidence l’instabilité du MOF-5 vis-à-vis de l’ammoniac, mettant ainsi en exergue l’importance de travailler avec des cations trivalents, voire tétravalents pour faire des traitements plasma en NH3. Le traitement DBD du MIL-53 Al a prouvé une fonctionnalisation réussie par d’insertion par substitution d’un carbone par un azote au sein du ligand organique, ce qui ouvre la possibilité d’utiliser cette voie pour fonctionnaliser d’autres MOF. Finalement, l’analyse des propriétés texturales et d’adsorption d’hydrogène à température ambiante et pression atmosphérique ont montré une amélioration de la quantité d’hydrogène stockée dans le MIL-53 Al traité par DBD, qui reste faible mais ce résultat est prometteur pour développer des matériaux permettant d’avoir une capacité d’adso rption plus importante aux conditions environnementales de pression et de températurePorous coordination polymers, more commonly known as MOFs "Metal-Organic Frameworks", are an emerging class of porous materials formed by the assembly of metal ions and organic ligands. Due to their structures and properties, MOFs have attracted great interest for a wide range of applications, mainly in gas storage and separation, catalysis, optics, energy storage…. One of the main advantages of these materials lies in the possibility of modulating or even enhancing their properties through functionalization. The functionalization of these materials is mostly carried out by wet chemical process that often presents some constraints like the duration of the reactions, the energy cost…. The work presented in this thesis concerns the study of the functionalization of these materials by a dry chemical method, in this case by a plasma treatment using an impulse dielectric barrier discharge (I-DBD). To the best of our knowledge, no method of functionalization of MOFs by plasma has yet been reported in the literature. The main objective of this thesis is to study the functionalization of these materials by DBD by grafting amino groups. A parametric study of the DBD discharge conditions made it possible to determine the most favorable DBD discharge parameters/conditions to produce nitrogen radicals in the plasma. Thus, this production is favored using an NH3 plasma compared to N2/H2 or Ar/N2/H2 plasmas. In addition, the discharge conditions optimized for carrying out DBD treatment in pulsed regime in NH3 are as follow: a voltage of 6 kVp-p, a frequency of 4 kHz, an inter-electrode distance of 3 mm and a pressure of 104 Pa. A first study of pre-functionalization of terephthalic acid showed the effectiveness of the DBD process in grafting amine groups onto the organic ligand. This work continued with the in-depth study of the DBD plasma treatment of two MOFs: zinc-based MOF-5 and aluminum-based MIL-53. These investigations have highlighted the ins tability of MOF-5 with respect to ammonia, thus highlighting the importance of working with trivalent or even tetravalent cations to carry out plasma treatments in NH3. The DBD treatment of MIL-53 Al has proven successful functionalization via insertion by substituting a carbon atom with a nitrogen one within the organic ligand, which opens the possibility of using this pathway to functionalize other MOFs. Finally, the analysis of the textural and hydrogen adsorption properties at room temperature and atmospheric pressure showed an improvement of the amount of hydrogen stored in the MIL-53 Al treated with DBD. Although this amount remains low, these results are promising to develop materials with a higher adsorption capacity at room temperature, or even at atmospheric pressure

Full textAbstract:
Le projet SYNERGY (ANR) dans lequel s’inscrit ma thèse se donne pour objectif long terme d’optimiser les propriétés de sorption et de désorption d’un matériau poreux (e.g. MOFs) en rassemblant et couplant dans un seul et même matériau différents mécanismes de sorption, à la fois physique et chimique. Pour ce faire, deux types de procédés plasmas sont retenus : le premier ayant pour but de fonctionnaliser la surface dudit matériau et le second d’imprégner dans son volume des éléments métalliques réagissant positivement au stockage de l’hydrogène. Dans le but de mettre en place de tels procédés plasmas, il est alors nécessaire de s’intéresser au milieu plasma qui représente le réservoir des espèces actives et dont l’interaction avec le matériau détermine le résultat final. Ainsi, les objectifs qui soutiennent mes travaux de thèse reposent sur le développement de régimes impulsionnels hautes tensions transitoires sub-microsecondes et la compréhension de leur impact sur la dynamique du plasma associé à de tels procédés. La première est de type décharge à barrière diélectrique qui opère en régime impulsionnel, à haute pression (> 104 Pa) et en gaz d’ammoniac pur, source d’espèces aminées pour la fonctionnalisation. L’observation de cette décharge iDBD en ammoniac pur montre pour la première fois l’obtention d’une décharge stable en mode diffus. Par ailleurs, Les différents résultats obtenus par imagerie rapide et par E-FISH fournissent des pistes quant à l’obtention de ce mode. La seconde est un nouveau régime de décharge haute tension et sub-microseconde nommé FHiVI², opérant à basse pression (1 Pa). Conçu et breveté au cours de ma thèse, l’objectif d’un tel régime est l’amélioration du taux d’ionisation lors de procédés plasmas tout en limitant les phénomènes de rétro-attraction des ions générés à la cathode, phénomène courant dans le cas des procédés de pulvérisation assistée par plasma. Couplé avec un régime HiPIMS, les tous premiers résultats de ce nouveau régime FHiVI² indiquent qu’il peut permettre au minimum doubler le taux d’ionisation par rapport au régime HiPIMSThe long-term aim of the SYNERGY project (ANR), in which my thesis is involved, is to optimize the sorption and desorption properties of a porous material (e.g. MOFs) by combining and coupling different sorption mechanisms, both physical and chemical, in a single material. To achieve this, two types of plasma processes are used: the first to functionalize the surface of the material, and the second to impregnate its volume with metallic elements that react positively to hydrogen storage. To implement such plasma processes, it is necessary to focus on the plasma medium, which represents the reservoir of active species, and whose interaction with the material determines the final result. Thus, the objectives underlying my thesis work are based on the development of sub-microsecond transient high-voltage pulse regimes and understanding their impact on the plasma dynamics associated with such processes. The first is a dielectric barrier discharge (iDB) operating in a pulsed regime, at high pressure (> 104 Pa) and in pure ammonia gas, providing amino species for functionalization. Observation of this iDBD discharge in pure ammonia shows for the first time that a stable discharge can be obtained in diffuse mode. In addition, the various results obtained by fast imaging and E-FISH provide clues as to how this mode can be achieved. The second is a new high-voltage, sub-microsecond discharge regime called FHiVI², operating at low pressure (1 Pa). Designed and patented during my thesis, the aim of such a regime is to improve the ionization rate during plasma processes, while limiting the back-attraction of ions generated at the cathode, a common phenomenon in plasma-assisted sputtering processes. Coupled with a HiPIMS regime, the very first results from this new FHiVI² regime indicate that it can at least double the ionization rate compared with the HiPIMS regime

O diagnóstico considerado por muitos autores padrão-ouro para a PCM é o encontro de células fúngicas sugestivas de Paracoccidioides brasiliensis no Exame Microscópico Direto (EMD) de escarro ou outros espécimes clinico, como raspado de lesão, aspirado de linfonodos, biopsia, etc. As provas sorológicas têm grande importância, complementando ou substituindo o exame micológico no diagnóstico/prognóstico da doença. O objetivo do presente estudo foi comparar dois desses testes sorológicos para PCM: a imunodifusão dupla (IDD) e o ensaio imunoenzimático ELISA. A metodologia foi estabelecida comparando-se títulos de anticorpos obtidos de três grupos de pacientes: 142 amostras de soros de 83 pacientes com PCM (Grupo I), 49 doadores saudáveis (Grupo II) e 13 pacientes com IDD positiva para outras micoses pulmonares: 11 com histoplasmose e 2 com aspergilose (Grupo III). Nossos resultados mostraram que a 8 (9,6%) e 5 (6,0%) dos pacientes com PCM foram falso negativo ao teste de IDD e ELISA, respectivamente. Dentro do grupo de pacientes saudáveis, não houve casos de falso positivo na IDD, porém, 5 (10,2%) amostras foram positivas com títulos baixos no ELISA. Entre os 13 pacientes com outras micoses, o ELISA mostrou que 10 (77,0%) foram positivos enquanto a IDD não apresentou nenhum caso de reação cruzada. A sensibilidade do ELISA (93,9%) foi um pouco superior ao da IDD (90,3%). A especificidade do ELISA calculada como base o controle saudável e os pacientes com outras micoses foi 89,7% e 23,1%, respectivamente. A IDD mostrou uma especificidade de 100% para ambos os casos. Os valores preditivos positivos e negativos foram de 100% e 83,8% para IDD e de 88,5% e 90,3% para ELISA, respectivamente.

Full textAbstract:
Individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) are prone to certain diseases in their lifetime, such as osteoporosis. Absorption of calcium is essential to maintaining good bone health and preventing osteoporosis. This study examined primary care providers’ (PCPs) choice of calcium supplementation, as well as type of calcium supplementation, and the relationship between variables in the IDD population. Ten PCPs were asked to complete a 14-question web-based survey, with five surveys completed. Calcium citrate was the preferred supplement among respondents at 50%. Retrospective data was collected from patient records and included type of calcium supplement prescribed, bone density test results, and other variable factors. The type of calcium supplement prescribed did not affect bone density results in subjects with IDD. There was a weak significance between calcium supplement type and gender and vitamin D. It is of modest benefit to include vitamin D with calcium supplementation to enhance calcium absorption.

Full textAbstract:
Social climate is defined as a set of long-standing features which impact upon the people within the environment, such as the restrictions of the setting and staff-patient relationships. Chapter 1 introduces the social climate research and highlights gaps in the literature. Chapter 2 presents a systematic review of the literature of social climate in forensic mental health services and the links to aggression. Chapter 3 critiques the Essen Climate Evaluation Schema (EssenCES; Schalast, Redies, Collins, Stacey, & Howells, 2008), a social climate measure commonly-used in the United Kingdom. Chapter 4 examines the perceptions of social climate among offenders with Intellectual Developmental Disabilities (IDD) using the EssenCES, and the views of staff working with them via focus groups together with using an adapted version of the Attitudes To Prisoners scale (ATP; Melvin, Gramling, & Gardner, 1985). Whilst no significant relationships were found between patient and staff questionnaire ratings and the frequency of incidents, the staff focus groups highlighted that factors such as inadequate staff training, inconsistent working practices, and patients being inappropriately placed in certain environments had an impact upon patient behaviours. Chapter 5 draws together the findings from the previous chapters and implications for research and practice are discussed.

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by the dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. It is among the most common fungal infections in Latin America, with Brazil being the country of highest endemicity, mainly in the Southeast part. The diagnosis considered by many authors as gold standard for the PCM is the finding of suggestive yeast cells of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis in the Direct Microscopic Examination of sputum or other clinical specimens, such as scraping the lesion, lymph node aspirate, biopsy, etc. The serological tests are of great importance, since they complement or replace the mycological examination in the diagnosis / prognosis of the disease. The aim of this study was to compare two serological tests for PCM: a double immunodiffusion (IDD) and Enzyme-Linked Immunoabsorbent Assay (ELISA). The methodology was established by comparing antibody titers obtained from three groups of patients: 145 serum samples from 83 patients with PCM (Group I), 49 healthy blood donors (Group II) and 13 patients with IDD positive for other pulmonary mycoses: 11 with histoplasmosis and 2 with aspergillosis (Group III). Our results showed that eight (9.6%) and 5 (6.0%) of patients with PCM were false negative to the IDD and ELISA tests, respectively. In the group of healthy patients, no cases of false positive in IDD were observed; however, 5 (10.2%) of samples were positive with low titers in ELISA. Among the 13 patients with other mycoses, the ELISA showed that 10 (77.0%) were positive while the IDD tests did not show any case of cross-reaction. The sensitivity of the ELISA (93.9%) was slightly higher than the IDD (90.3%). The specificity of the ELISA calculated basing on the healthy control and patients with other mycoses was 89.7% and 23.1%, respectively. IDD showed 100% of specificity for both cases. The positive predictive and negative predictive values were 100% and 83.8% for IDD and 88.5% and 90.3% for ELISA, respectively. The accuracy of the tests was also calculated: the IDD was 94.4% while ELISA was 86.2%.

L’obiettivo di questo lavoro è l’analisi e l’interpretazione giuridica degli effetti nel
mercato assicurativo europeo, con ovvi sviluppi nelle legislazioni nazionali, conseguenti
all’approvazione della nuova direttiva riguardante la distribuzione assicurativa, ovvero la
Direttiva 2016/97/UE del Parlamento europeo e del Consiglio, denominata “Direttiva
IDD”.
L’acronimo IDD sta ad indicare l’espressione Insurance Distribution Directive, ossia
la disciplina della distribuzione assicurativa in generale. Si fa riferimento alla nozione di
“distribuzione”, in alternativa a quella di “intermediazione” assicurativa impiegata dalla
precedente direttiva 2002/92/CE (“IMD”: Insurance Mediation Directive), poiché
raggruppa tutti i soggetti che procedono alla vendita dei prodotti assicurativi, ampliando
la cerchia dei destinatari delle disposizioni in questione.
Dopo una breve introduzione concernente il cambiamento normativo negli ultimi
anni del panorama assicurativo europeo, innanzitutto in questo elaborato si evidenziano
le fasi dello sviluppo normativo riguardante gli intermediari assicurativi in Italia.
In seguito, questo studio delinea e riassume le novità principali frutto della nuova
direttiva “IDD”, la quale ha modificato, integrato e sostituito la direttiva precedente;
quest’ultima, infatti, risulterà definitivamente abrogata dal 1 ottobre 2018.
A fronte degli attuali e considerevoli cambiamenti che stanno interessando il settore
della distribuzione assicurativa a livello europeo, infine, il presente lavoro si propone di
approfondire l’analisi del recente schema di Decreto Legislativo, approvato in esame
preliminare dal Consiglio dei Ministri lo scorso 8 febbraio 2018, diretto a dare attuazione
in Italia alla già citata Direttiva n. 2016/97/UE; la materia in esame è comprensibilmente
mutevole e di ampia portata e si può facilmente ipotizzare che tale tema costituirà, nel
prossimo futuro, uno dei principali leitmotiv dell’attività assicurativa.

Full textAbstract:
När en medlemsstats genomförande av ett EU-direktiv innebär tillförsel av ytterligare bestämmelser vilka medför en förhöjd skyddsnivå i förhållande till direktivet, innebär det utförande av gold plating. Eftersom förfarandet leder till särreglering i förhållande till andra medlemsstater uppstår därmed en konflikt med EU:s harmoniseringsambitioner på den inre marknaden. Det saknas emellertid en allmängiltig definition av gold plating; kommissionens definition är exempelvis snävare än hur definitionen görs gällande i andra fall. Uppsatsen har till syfte att besvara hur gold plating bör definieras och för att ge ytterligare förståelse för begreppet undersöks det svenska genomförandet av IDD, vilket innebar strängare nationella krav i förhållande till direktivet på ett antal områden. IDD beskrivs som ett minimiharmoniseringsdirektiv, men är utformat enligt en lagstiftningsmodell som förutsätter ett enhetligt lagstiftningsgenomförande i medlemsstaterna. IDD kan även relateras till ett flertal rättsområden inom vilka fullharmonisering råder, exempelvis finansmarknadsområdet och direktivet MiFID II. I uppsatsens analys framförs ett ställningstagande om att en definition av gold plating bör tydliggöra åtskillnad mellan å ena sidan ett utvidgat tillämpningsområde, å andra sidan tillförsel av materiella krav, eftersom de olika förfarandena innebär olika juridiska problem. Det framhålls dessutom att en bred och deskriptiv definition av gold plating kan vara användbar vid identifiering av direktivs miniminivå. Analysen innebär vidare några kommentarer avseende IDD:s harmoniseringsgrad och en övergripande kategorisering av de avvikelser från miniminivån som har identifierats i genomförandet av direktivet. Därtill framhålls att ett nationellt införande av en norm eller princip som innebär att minimikraven ska vara vägledande vid genomförande av minimiharmoniseringsdirektiv kan strida mot direktivet i det enskilda fallet. Med tanke på EU:s höga regleringsaktivitet och det faktum att medlemsstaternas lagstiftningsmakt har fått ta ett steg tillbaka, kan gold plating mer eller mindre vara en förutsättning för åtgärdade av nationella reformbehov. För att säkerställa att gold plating utförs i enlighet med direktivet och EU-rätten i övrigt, krävs ett tidigare nationellt engagemang och deltagande i den EU-rättsliga beslutsprocessen.

Full textAbstract:
The problem examined in this study was the lack of policy in New York State regarding the provision of prioritized residential services for intellectually disabled individuals who are being cared for by an aging caregiver. The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore and document the needs experienced by aging parents regarding securing the future of their intellectually disabled adult child. The theoretical framework for this study was based on Sabatier’s advocacy coalition framework. The research questions examined the lived experiences of aging parents caring for an adult child with an intellectual disability what parents perceive their needs are in order to secure their adult intellectually disabled child’s future. Data were retrieved from 5 parents who resided in New York State. The findings from this study confirmed existing literature indicating that aging parents will need to secure residential placement or alternative living arrangements before they can no longer care for their adult intellectually disabled child. Another finding from this study was that the pertinent service delivery program does not provide direct assistance to these families. Therefore, advocacy was a necessary action in order to obtain services. The voices of the parents could influence policy makers to make aging parents with an adult intellectually disabled child a higher priority when seeking residential placement, provide direct representation from OPWDD, and provide residential placement that fits the ID adult’s needs. These programmatic changes may result in positive social change for this population

We have analized more precisely one of the susceptibility loci, Idd5 on chromosome 1. This locus is of special interest because the corresponding genetic region include candidate genes like Ctla4 or Icos. Moreover, the human synteny on chromosome 2q is also a susceptibility region for human diabetes (IDDM 12 locus) and include CTLA4. The Idd5 locus has been investigated using congenic recombinant strains of mice. We have also characterized the genetic control of autoimmune phenotypes associated to NOD mice diabetes, like the inducible thyroi͏̈ditis of chronic evolution and spontaneous infiltration of salivary glands

ITC/USA 2005 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2005 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, NevadaThe Telemetry Data Center (TDC) at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico recently targeted analog best source selectors for replacement along with their associated signal handling equipments. The commercial selectors available offered no better performance, so TDC engineers circulated a "White Paper" on real time correlation based compositing. Within two years a Correlating Source Selector (CSS) was fielded successfully. The CSS’s bridging feature unexpectedly opened the door to a ubiqituous software decommutator (decom) that has catalyzed a complete “make-over” of the entire TDC architecture. Hardware and software interaction in a decom is different with the CSS. While performing its correlation tasks the CSS is able to provide raw data over TCP/IP directly to the end application. The CSS places the data in computer friendly frame aligned form and the decommutation may be performed in software. The converse is similarly simple, a data file maybe transferred to the CSS for commutation into PCM. This white paper describes the morphing of software decommutation into a commodity, integrated into each end device, be it graphics display, Disk or Chart recorder. The result is an interesting consolidation that spawns a new functionally integrated Telemetry Data Center ( iTDC). This integrated Display Decom (iDD) concept has been demonstrated on Apple G5 RISC computers.

Full textAbstract:
När nya politiska regleringar införs på en marknad kan det få konsekvenser för alla aktörer på marknaden. Det kan påverka både deras verksamhet och deras relationer. Syftet med denna uppsats är att få en ökad förståelse för hur relationen mellan företag på försäkringsmarknaden förändras inför en större politisk förändring och vilka faktorer som kan spela in. För att undersöka detta intervjuas företrädare för försäkringsbolag och försäkringsförmedlare inför det kommande direktivet om försäkringsdistribution (IDD). För att undersöka hur relationerna förändrats används en modell av relationen som grundar sig i bland annat Anderson och Narus (1990) forskning om relationens beståndsdelar och hur dessa hänger ihop. För att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar hur förändringen går till används en modell av Hadjikhani, Thilenius och Pourmand (2009) som förklarar hur politiska förändringar kan påverka företag, både direkt genom lagstiftning och indirekt via andra företag. Slutsatserna som dras är att: Relationerna mellan försäkringsbolag och försäkringsförmedlare påverkas av regleringar såsom direktivet om försäkringsdistribution (IDD) och att relationen börjar förändras redan innan regleringen trätt i kraft. Vilken relation två företag har till varandra influerar till vilken grad företagen utsätts för direkt och indirekt påverkan inför förändringar i politiska regleringar. Graden av indirekt påverkan de olika företagen utsätts för kan påverka relationen mellan företagen. En politisk förändring kan innehålla både stödjande och tvingande element.When new political regulations are introduced to a market, they can have consequences for all market players. This can affect both the activities and relationships between them. The purpose of this paper is to gain a better understanding of how the relationship between companies in the insurance market is changing as a consequence of a major political change and which factors can be relevant to this change. To investigate this, representatives from insurance companies and insurance brokers are interviewed about the forthcoming Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD). To investigate how the relationships changed, a model of the relationship, based in, among others, Anderson and Narus (1990) model, which deals with the constituents of a relationship and how they relate to each other. To investigate the factors which influence how the relationship changes, a model of Hadjikhani, Thilenius and Pourmand (2009) is used, which explains how political changes can affect companies, both directly through legislation and indirectly through other companies. The conclusions drawn are that: Relationships between insurance companies and insurance brokers are affected by regulations such as the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD) and that the relationship begins to change even before the regulation is implemented. The relationship between the companies influences the extent to which companies are exposed to direct and indirect influence as a result of political regulations. The degree of indirect impact on the various companies can affect the relationship between the companies. A political change can contain both supporting and compelling elements.

Full textAbstract:
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a chronic autoimmune disease in which the insulin producing β-cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans are selectively attacked by the immune system. The β-cells are destroyed resulting in a reduced or eliminated insulin production, which in turn lead to a high blood glucose level. The non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse is the most commonly used animal model for human T1D. NOD mice develop diabetes spontaneously through a process that closely resembles the human pathogenesis. In both humans and the NOD mouse, disease is caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. In the NOD mouse, more than 30 insulin-dependent diabetes (Idd) loci on 15 chromosomes have been linked to disease susceptibility, however, most of the Idd-regions lack identification of a disease associated gene. B cells are required for T1D development, although the underlying mechanisms are not fully revealed. The aim of this thesis was to dissect B cell-related immune deviations in the NOD mouse, including the underlying genetics of these traits. The TACI receptor binds two ligands, i.e. the cytokines BAFF and APRIL.TACI ligation by APRIL mediates class switch, drives plasma cell differentiation and increases immunoglobulin production. In Paper I, a novel NOD-specific B cell-related trait was identified, i.e. the increased percentage of TACIhigh-expressing splenic B cells, by comparing NOD mice with non-autoimmune disease prone C57BL/6 mice. To investigate if the described TACI trait was controlled by genes linked to any Idd-region, an Idd-focused linkage analysis was performed. The TACI-trait mapped to regions on chromosome 1 and 8, more specifically to the vicinity of the Idd5.4 and Idd22. Interestingly, the linkage to Idd22 was explained by mice ≥61 days of age, suggesting a temporal genetic regulation of TACI expression possibly influenced by the ongoing autoimmune process. In Paper II, the linkage of the TACI trait to chromosome 1 and 8 was confirmed by analyzing the percentage of TACIhigh-expressing B cells in congenic NOD.C1/Idd22 mice. Moreover, the functional consequence of TACI upregulation was investigated, with the focus on plasma cell development and immunoglobulin production. NOD splenic B cells stimulated with APRIL displayed increased numbers of plasma cells and produced higher amounts of IgG and IgA compared to B cells from C57BL/6 mice. Thus, the TACI upregulation on NOD B cells possibly contribute to a B cell compartment which is more disposed to plasma cell differentiation and isotype switch. NOD mice display enhanced and prolonged immune response towards several antigens, including non-self immunoglobulins. In Paper III, the genetic factor(s) controlling the altered immune response against a BALB/c derived monoclonal antibody were dissected. Significant linkage to the Idd1/Idd24, Idd12, and Idd18.1 regions as well as to a proximal region on chromosome 2 (33.5 Mb) was detected. The linkage to Idd1/24 was verified by analyzing a set of H2-congenic NOD and C57BL/6 mice, and the linked region was narrowed down to ~8 Mb. Candidate gene analysis revealed a significant difference in the transcription of the H2-O/DO molecule. This suggests that multiple mechanisms contribute to the loss of immune response control, including an altered MHC class II peptide loading on NOD B cells. In Paper IV, a novel B cell intrinsic receptor for IgM and IgG was revealed. The receptor appeared to be more abundant in NOD mice compared to C57BL/6 mice, as the level of extramembranous IgG monomers and IgM pentamers on peripheral blood B cells from NOD mice was significantly higher compared to C57BL/6 mice. In addition, analysis of immune complex binding using IgG- or IgM-opsonized bacterial particles revealed a higher degree of binding in NOD mice compared with C57BL/6 mice. The enhanced capture of immunoglobulins and immune complexes could thus contribute to the development of T1D by altering normal B cell functions such as activation and immune complex transportation.

A avaliação de um determinado ramo do conhecimento, propicia dignificar o saber quando métodos confiáveis e sistemáticos são utilizados para mostrar à sociedade como tal saber vem se desenvolvendo e de que maneira tem contribuído para resolver os problemas que se apresentam dentro de sua área de abrangência. No contexto da avaliação institucional podem ser observadas questões múltiplas como de estrutura, de organização e funcionamento, e de expectativas, mas, sobretudo, a construção do conhecimento. Os sistemas de informação em bibliotecas estabelecem, nos seus processos de medição, dados que retratam sua evolução histórica, com o intuito de quantificar seu desempenho e produtividade; porém, não vinculam uma relação dos resultados obtidos ao planejamento estratégico e, consequentemente, aos objetivos de qualidade da organização, os quais poderiam oferecer parâmetros de análise sobre o que se está medindo, para que se mede e porque se mede. Nem tampouco estabelecem índices, tais como: de resultado, de impacto, de desenvolvimento, os quais poderiam demonstrar a expansão de suas potencialidades. Como objetivo geral a pesquisa propôs a criação de índice de desenvolvimento para as bibliotecas universitárias brasileiras (IDBU) a partir da análise da literatura sobre indicadores. Propôs, ainda, como objetivos específicos: identificar a tipologia de indicadores de acordo com os processos de uso da informação: construção de significado, construção do conhecimento e tomada de decisões, através de benchmarking internacional e análises comparativas; testar a hipótese e os indicadores utilizados nos sistemas de medição e monitoramento das bibliotecas universitárias; criar algoritmo para composição do IDBU; propor um índice de desenvolvimento para bibliotecas universitárias. Os procedimentos metodológicos propostos são de natureza qualiquantitativa, sendo do tipo descritiva exploratória, aplicando-se como método o "Modelo Interpretativo de Análise" (MIA), desenvolvido por Marteleto (2000) e a Análise de Redes Sociais (ARS) do autor J. David Johnson (2011). Os instrumentos utilizados para coleta e tratamento dos dados foram o Software Estatístico Minitab; Software de Análise de Redes Sociais UCINET e Fontes de Pesquisa. A presente pesquisa obteve como resultados a análise do comportamento da literatura sobre os indicadores para bibliotecas universitárias; proposição da metodologia, representação matemática, fórmula, elaboração de diagrama de composição do IDBU e criação do índice de desenvolvimento de bibliotecas universitárias, propriamente dito, assim como a construção de Repositório Temático sobre o assunto, disponível na Web.
The evaluation of a particular branch of knowledge, provides dignify know when reliable and systematic methods are used to show the society as such knowledge is developing and how has contributed to solving the problems that arise in their area. The institutional evaluation context can be seen multiple issues such as structure, organization and operation, and expectations, but above all the construction of knowledge. Information systems in libraries shall include in its measurement process, data reflecting its historical evolution, in order to quantify their performance and productivity; however, they do not bind a list of results of the strategic planning and, consequently, the quality objectives of the organization, which could offer analysis parameters about what is being measured, that is measured and why it is measured. Not establish indices, such as the result of impact of development, which could demonstrate the expansion of its capabilities. The general objective of the research proposes the creation of development index for Brazilian university libraries from the literature analysis of indicators. It proposed moreover the following objectives: identify the type of indicators according to the use of information processes: construction of meaning, knowledge building and decision-making through international benchmarking and comparative analyzes; test the hypothesis and the indicators used in measuring and monitoring systems of university libraries; create algorithm for composition of IDBU; propose a development index for university libraries. The proposed methodological procedures are quantitative qualitative nature, being of exploratory descriptive, applying as a method to "Interpretive Model Analysis" (MIA) developed by Marteleto (2000) and the Social Network Analysis (SNA) the author Johnson (2011). The instruments used for the collection and processing of data were the Statistical Software Minitab; Software Social Network Analysis and Research UCINET sources. This research had as results the analysis of the literature on behavioral indicators for university libraries; proposition of the methodology, mathematical representation, formula, preparing IDBU composition diagram and the creation of university libraries development index, itself, as well as the construction of the Theme Repository on the subject, available on the Web.

Gopalakrishnan, Arjun. "Probabilistic Analysis of Contracting Ebola Virus Using Contextual Intelligence." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2017. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc984182/.
Full textAbstract:
The outbreak of the Ebola virus was declared a Public Health Emergency of International Concern by the World Health Organisation (WHO). Due to the complex nature of the outbreak, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had created interim guidance for monitoring people potentially exposed to Ebola and for evaluating their intended travel and restricting the movements of carriers when needed. Tools to evaluate the risk of individuals and groups of individuals contracting the disease could mitigate the growing anxiety and fear. The goal is to understand and analyze the nature of risk an individual would face when he/she comes in contact with a carrier. This thesis presents a tool that makes use of contextual data intelligence to predict the risk factor of individuals who come in contact with the carrier.

Full textAbstract:
The C4 photosynthetic pathway acts to concentrate CO2 around the enzyme Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase oxygenase (Rubisco), ensuring that it catalyses a carboxylation rather than oxygenation reaction, which in turn suppresses photorespiration. In nearly all cases C4 photosynthesis is underpinned by characteristic Kranz anatomy, with concentric wreaths of bundle sheath (BS) and mesophyll (M) cells surrounding closely spaced veins. The increased yields associated with the C4 pathway have lead to the suggestion that C3 crops such as rice should be engineered to undertake C4 photosynthesis, however, this goal is currently held back by a lack of understanding about how the development of Kranz anatomy is regulated. Recently, a number of candidate Kranz regulators have been identified in an RNA-seq study that compared leaf development in maize foliar (Kranz) and husk (non-Kranz) leaves. However, this study did not consider the impact of a recent whole genome duplication in the maize lineage on the gene expression patterns analysed. Therefore, in this thesis maize homeolog gene-pair divergence during early leaf development was assessed. This revealed that expression divergence of homeolog gene-pairs is a significant evolutionary phenomenon. Functional validation of a subset of Kranz candidates revealed that a Zmscr1-1; Zmscr1h-1 double mutant exhibited defects in Kranz patterning, including increased formation of extra BS cells and veins with no separating M cells. Furthermore, Zmnkd1; Zmnkd2 double mutants exhibited a subtle increase in extra BS cell formation. Taken together, this indicates that both ZmSCR1/ZmSCR1h and ZmNKD1/ZmNKD2 function redundantly during Kranz development. No evidence was obtained that two additional genes, ZmSHR2 and ZmRVN1, play a role in Kranz development, and expression of candidate Kranz regulators in rice did not alter leaf anatomy. Together, this work has confirmed roles for a number of genes in Kranz regulation, and has provided insight into the complex regulation underpinning Kranz development in maize.

"Behovsanalysen inför försäkringsrådgivning : Hur ska den genomföras för att omsorgsplikten ska kunna uppfyllas inför rådgivning om personförsäkringar och försäkringsbaserade investeringsprodukter?" Thesis, Linköpings universitet, Affärsrätt, 2021. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:liu:diva-175011.
Full textAbstract:
För att försäkringstagare ska känna sig trygga med att de har tecknat en lämplig försäkringsprodukt tar många försäkringstagare hjälp av rådgivare innan de ingår försäkringsavtal. Innan rådgivningen kan börja behöver försäkrings- eller investeringsrådgivaren genomföra en behovsanalys av konsumenten, för att utreda bl.a. konsumentens krav och behov. Därefter ska rådgivningen och de rekommendationer som ges baseras på de uppgifter som framkommit i behovsanalysen för att konsumenten ska kunna erhålla lämpliga råd och rekommendationer för just hens specifika situation. Att genomföra rådgivningen på ovanstående sätt ingår i den omsorgsplikt som rådgivaren behöver uppfylla, vilken går ut på att tillvarata konsumentens bästa intressen. I uppsatsen utreds hur rådgivningen om privata personförsäkringar och försäkringsbaserade investeringsprodukter ska genomföras enligt EU-rättsliga källor och framförallt enligt svensk rätt, som genomfört de EU-rättsliga direktiven. Tre stycken djupare intervjuer har genomförts och används för att ta reda på om rådgivningen i praktiken stämmer överens med gällande rätt. Intervjuerna har även som syfte att klargöra hur olika personer inom försäkringsbranschen upplever att behovsanalysen i praktiken genomförs och om det finns några problem eller oklarheter med den nuvarande regleringen. Slutsatserna kan sammanfattas till att lagstiftningen är tillräcklig på försäkringsområdet, däremot kan en mer principbaserad reglering vara vägen att gå framöver för att utreda de oklarheter och problem som framkommit i uppsatsen. Att använda sig av mer principbaserad reglering kan hjälpa rådgivare och fungera som vägledning i rådgivningssituationer som är mer komplicerade. Det råder bl.a. en osäkerhet på marknaden hur en konsuments lämpliga risknivå, inbegripen risktolerans och riskvilja, ska avgöras. Det finns ett behov av att tillsynsmyndighet eller lagstiftare behöver klargöra reglerna på området ytterligare, för att konsumentskyddet ska stärkas. Utöver en mer principbaserad reglering på området är en ytterligare lösning på framkomna problem att FI behöver utöva mer tillsyn över rådgivare och försäkringsförmedlare. Det kan t.ex. vara i form av mer omfattande granskning av rådgivningsdokumentationer, för att upptäcka genvägar som rådgivare ibland tenderar att ta. Granskningen av dokumentationer kan även leda till att FI upptäcker fler rådgivningstillfällen där rådgivaren inte tagit uppgifterna i hänsyn när rådgivning sedan genomförts.

Invasive Development Disorders (IDD) are a group of conditions characterized by the onset of lags and impairments in the development of social, communication and behavioral skills during infancy. The empathy capacity prejudice has been indicated as an endophenotype characteristic of IDD. The present study evaluates and compares empathy in people with IDD and a control group through a task of judging basic facial expressions that are contained in an Empathy Card-deck, an instrument developed by the researcher. Seven male participants with IDD, aged between 6 and 15 years, a minimum IQ of 70 (Wisc III) and all fulfilling criteria for IDD diagnosis (DSM IV) were evaluated. The IDD group erred significantly more than the control group in judging the card-deck of basic facial expression photos (p< 0.001), in the card-deck of drawings (p=0.007) and in both tests when the total performance was analyzed (p< 0.001). There was a significant difference between the control and IDD groups in the expression of doubt (p=0.031) and disgust (p=0.005) in the Drawings Card-deck, and in the expression of disgust (p=0.005) in the Photo Card-deck, always with a greater error index for the IDD group. When analyzing the performance in Photos and Drawings together, there is a statistically significant difference between expressions of doubt (p=0.012), disgust (p<0.001) and surprise (p=0.006). The results obtained reinforce the findings of previous studies about empathic capacity prejudice in individuals with IDD.
Os Transtornos Invasivos do Desenvolvimento (TID) são um grupo de condições caracterizadas pelo início na primeira infância de atrasos e déficits no desenvolvimento das habilidades sociais, comunicativas e comportamentais. O prejuízo da capacidade de empatia vem sendo apontado como um aspecto característico do endofenótipo dos TID. O presente estudo avaliou e comparou empatia em pessoas com TID e um grupo controle, através de tarefa de julgamento de expressões faciais básicas, contidas no Baralho da Empatia, instrumento desenvolvido pela pesquisadora. Foram avaliados 7 participantes com TID, do sexo masculino, com idades entre 6 e 15 anos, com QI mínimo de 70 (Wisc III) e que preenchiam critérios para diagnóstico de TID (DSM IV). Foram pareados por idade, sexo e inteligência com indivíduos com desenvolvimento normal. O grupo com TID errou significativamente mais que o controle, no julgamento de expressões faciais nas fotos (p< 0,001), nos desenhos (p=0,007) e nos dois testes quando analisado o desempenho total (p< 0,001). Houve diferença significativa entre controle e TID nas expressões de dúvida (p=0,031) e nojo (p=0,005) no Baralho de Desenhos, e nas Fotos, na expressão de nojo (p=0,018), sempre com maior índice de erros do grupo TID. Quando analisado o desempenho nas Fotos e Desenhos juntos, aparece diferença estatisticamente significante entre expressões de dúvida (p=0,012), nojo (p<0,001) e surpresa (p=0,006). Os resultados obtidos reforçam achados de pesquisas anteriores sobre o prejuízo da capacidade de empatia em pessoas com TID.

Full textAbstract:
With increasing demands for lowering emissions from diesel engines, bio fuel has been introduced to the fuel mixture. This fuel is based on vegetable oil with a much smaller carbon footprint than fossil fuel. The chemical composition of bio fuel has lead to deposits forming inside the fuel injector in diesel engines, these deposits are usually denoted as Internal Diesel Injector Deposits (IDID). At Scania CV AB an injector test rig is designed with the goal of creating and investigating IDID. This project has made a theoretical investigation of how IDID are formed and how this affects the mechanics inside the injector. It has also analysed injector components from a worst case scenario perspective in order to find a testing method for creating IDID in the test rig. By analysing performance changes from a build-up perspective, where IDID decreases the tolerances inside the injector, as well as friction, formed when deposits cause injector mechanics to stick together, it has been found that injector performance does hardly change from build-up and that performance changes only occur when friction is introduced. From the injector component analysis it is found that the limiting factors in rig testing come from fuel system components rather than the injector itself. This is the base for a rig running test method presented.

O campus como base física de suporte aos sistemas de educação superior de massa adotado de forma globalizada a partir dos anos 1950 e sua contextualização histórica e projetual no âmbito brasileiro encontra um número muito reduzido de estudos. A exemplo da Europa e dos Estados Unidos, sob as pressões demográficas ocorridas após a Segunda Guerra Mundial e como imperativo de desenvolvimento econômico, inúmeros campi brasileiros foram implantados. Porém, já em 1975, os Anais do I Seminário Nacional sobre Planejamento de Campi Universitários retratavam inadequações dos novos campi das universidades federais que as incapacitavam de atender às demandas da Reforma Universitária de 1968. Sucessivos acordos de empréstimo foram assinados com o Banco Interamericano de Desenvolvimento para a reestruturação física desses espaços. O último deles, o Programa MEC/BID III, firmado nos anos 1980, destinou 105 milhões de dólares a nove universidades federais, visando expansões, preenchimento de lacunas e solução de deficiências físicas remanescentes da implantação desses campi nas décadas de 1960 e 1970. Como objetivo geral, este trabalho aborda um tema da maior importância para o planejamento físico do espaço universitário: a consolidação do campus como tendência internacional mesmo em países como a França, onde, até os anos 1950, ele não era sequer uma realidade a ser copiada, e o Brasil, onde até os anos 1960 predominavam faculdades isoladas. Como objetivo específico destaca-se a investigação dos aspectos históricos e arquitetônicos relacionados aos campi federais brasileiros na década de 1980, na esteira das ações de reestruturação e expansão física das universidades, no âmbito do Programa MEC/BID III, coordenado pelo Centro de Desenvolvimento e Apoio Técnico à Educação (CEDATE). A metodologia utilizada se relaciona com o campo dos estudos historiográficos na Arquitetura e no Urbanismo. A busca das fontes secundárias conduziu a pesquisa à Biblioteca da FAU/USP, onde foram coletados 42 artigos nacionais oferecidos pelo Índice de Arquitetura Brasileira e 90 títulos de artigos internacionais dos mais tradicionais periódicos. Conduziu também à UFF, onde foi coletada literatura específica sobre campus universitário e sobre o Programa MEC/BID III. Constituiu também importante fonte secundária a literatura internacional oferecida por Muthesius (2000), Chapman (2006), Turner (1984), De Carlo (2005) e outros do cenário nacional, como Alberto (2003), Cunha (2007) e Rodrigues (2001). As fontes primárias foram privilegiadas por meio de entrevistas com profissionais oriundos do CEDATE, bem como com arquitetos, engenheiros e gestores do processo de implantação do campus da UFJF na década de 1970 e outros atuantes em sua consolidação, na década de 1980. Para a materialização da abordagem, este trabalho apresenta um estudo de caso da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, um campus típico oriundo das grandes implantações dos anos 1960 e consolidado posteriormente, nos anos 1980, por meio do Programa MEC/BID III. Os resultados encontrados ao longo do estudo evidenciam uma profunda identidade e convergência dos processos experimentados na Europa com a experiência vivida no ensino superior brasileiro a partir de meados do século XX.
The campus as a physical support base for mass higher education systems, which was adopted globally from the 1950s, and its historical and conceptual context from the Brazilian point of view have been subjected to very few studies. Following the example of Europe and the United States, due to demographic pressures after World War II and the need for economic development, numerous Brazilian campuses were implemented. In 1975, however, the Proceedings of the First National Seminar on the University Campus Planning already revealed the shortcomings of the new campuses of federal universities, which made it impossible for them to meet the demands of the 1968 University Reform Act. Successive agreements were signed with the International Development Bank for the restructuring of these physical spaces. The last of these, the MEC/IDB III program signed in 1980, allocated USD 105 million to nine federal universities in order for them to expand, fill in the gaps and find solutions for the shortcomings that remained after the establishment of these campuses in the 1960s and 70s. The general objective of this paper is to delve into an issue of major importance for the physical planning of the university space: the consolidation of the campus as international trend even in countries like France, where they didn’t even exist until the 1950s, and Brazil, where until the 1960s the isolated College prevailed. Among the specific objectives stands the inquiry of historic and architectural aspects related to campuses of federal universities due to restructuring and physical expansion activities that occurred within the scope of the MEC/IDB III program in the 1980s, through the actions of CEDATE - Centre for Development and Technical Support in Education. The methodology used is related to the field of historiographical studies in Architecture and Urbanism. The search for secondary sources led the research to the FAU-USP library, which provided 42 national articles offered by the Brazilian Architecture Index and 90 titles of international articles from the most traditional international journals. It also led to the UFF, where specific literature was gathered on university campuses and the MEC/IDB III program. Also were important as secondary sources the international literature offered by Muthesius (2000), Chapman (2006), Turner (1984), De Carlo (2005) and other national publications from such authors as Alberto (2003), Cunha (2007) and Rodrigues (2001). Furthermore, the primary sources were prioritized in this study. Interviews were conducted with professionals from CEDATE as well as with architects, engineers and managers involved in the implementation process of the UFJF campus in the 1970s, and others who worked on its 1980’s consolidation. To put this approach into practice, this paper presents a case study of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, which is a typical Brazilian campus from the large 1960’s implementations, which was later consolidated in the 1980s through the MEC/IDB III program. The results found during the study show a profound identification and convergence of the processes experienced in Europe with the Brazilian higher education experience since the mid -twentieth century.

Full textAbstract:
The nonobese diabetic mouse (NOD) is an excellent animal model to study type 1 diabetes. As with some humans, disease in the NOD mouse is effected by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. At least 20 insulin dependent diabetes (Idd) susceptibility loci have been identified so far, both in humans and in the NOD mouse. In this thesis, the overall aim has been to understand the genetic basis of diabetes in the NOD mouse by assessing immunogically-related phenotypes. As lymphocytes are the main players in the onset and progression to overt diabetes, we searched for physiological abnormalities in T and B cells, which could contribute to the breakdown of tolerance to pancreatic antigens. Ultimately, we postulate that abnormalities in the T or B cell compartments, under the genetic control of a previously defined diabetes susceptibility regions (Idds) could unravel the biological mechanisms underlying diabetes susceptibility and facilitate the identification of etiological polymorphisms involved in the disease. NOD T cells are defective in upregulating CTLA-4 upon in vitro activation. Previous studies have shown that this defect is, at least in part, controlled by gene(s) in the Idd5 region on chromosome 1. In paper I, we provide evidence that defective upregulation of the CTLA-4 in NOD T cells is not controlled by the Idd5.1 and Idd5.2 regions, but rather by genes linked to the telomeric region of chromosome 1 and to the Idd3 locus, for which the prime candidate gene is Il-2. Interestingly, we could restore some of the defective CTLA-4 expression in NOD T cells by the addition of exogenous IL-2 during T cell activation in vitro. In paper II, we show that NOD thymocytes are resistant to superantigen-mediated negative selection and that this trait is under control of the Idd5.2 region. Interestingly, it appears to operate in a T cell non-autonomous manner. In paper III, we describe a competitive advantage of NOD thymocytes to mature when they co-develop with B6 thymocytes in embryo aggregation chimeras. These results imply that defects exist in the positive/negative selection mechanisms in the NOD thymus. Apart from T cells, B cells also play an important role in the initiation of diabetes in NOD mice, probably as antigen presenting cells. In paper IV, we report that the genetic basis of an enlarged marginal zone (MZ) B cell population observed in the NOD mice is linked to the Idd9/Idd11 region. Together, these findings contribute to the dissection of the molecular mechanisms underlying diabetes pathogenesis, and shed light on the contribution of central and peripheral tolerance mechanisms to this process.

Dissertação apresentada à Universidade Fernando Pessoa como parte dos requisitos para obtenção do grau de Mestre em Ciências da Educação: Educação Especial, área de especialização em Domínio Cognitivo e MotorO presente estudo teve por objetivo a análise e reflexão sobre a transição para a vida pós-escolar (TVPE) de alunos com necessidades educativas especiais, nomeadamente, com Dificuldades Intelectuais e Desenvolvimentais (DID), na escola inclusiva de hoje, numa escolaridade de doze anos. Tendo por base a revisão da literatura, em particular a nova conceção de DID, bem como o enquadramento legal em vigor, procura-se perceber como é a resposta educativa para alunos com DID e como decorre o seu processo de transição pós-escolar na escola pública atual. As DID implicam transformações, a vários níveis, no processo de ensinoaprendizagem, pelo que a finalidade dos programas educativos para estes jovens é a sua preparação para uma vida em sociedade com a maior autonomia, competência e dignidade possível. Tal constitui um desafio para as escolas públicas de hoje, incluindo as de nível secundário, uma vez prolongada a escolaridade obrigatória para os doze anos. Assente numa metodologia quantitativa, este é um estudo de caráter exploratório, de tipo descritivo, que envolveu 70 participantes, entre professores de Educação Especial, Diretores de Turma e Encarregados de Educação de alunos com DID. Os dados foram recolhidos, através de inquérito por questionário, em dez escolas da rede escolar pública no Norte de Portugal. Após a análise dos resultados do estudo, concluiu-se que o modelo concetual de DID não é ainda do conhecimento generalizado dos professores, pese embora os currículos específicos individuais elaborados para os alunos com DID refletirem uma preocupação com a funcionalidade dos jovens. Apurou-se que o DL nº3/2008 está a ser cumprido no âmbito na TVPE, seguindo-se o preconizado na lei para o início, a conceção e implementação do PIT. No levantamento dos pontos fortes e dos obstáculos à TVPE, constatou-se como fundamental a cooperação entre escola, aluno e família, ao passo que os maiores constrangimentos no processo surgem ao nível da cooperação entre escola e comunidade envolvente.
This study aims at analysing and reflecting upon the post-school transition of students with special educational needs (SEN), namely with Intellectual Developmental Disabilities (IDD), in today’s inclusive schools, during 12 years. Starting off with the literature revision, specially on the new definition of IDD, and an overlook on the current legal framework, the study’s author aims at understanding, through an exploratory and descriptive study, what the education of learners with IDD consists of and their post-school transition process in regular state schools nowadays. Intellectual Developmental Disabilities introduce several transformations to the learning and teaching process, because the aim of the school programs for these youngster is their preparation for life in society, as autonomous, competent and dignified as possible. That is a challenge for state schools nowadays, including secondary schools, since compulsory education has been extended for twelve years. Based on a quantitative methodology, this is an exploratory study, of descriptive nature, which involved 70 participants, among Special Educational Needs (SEN) teachers, head teachers and parents/tutors of students with IDD. Results were gathered through a survey in ten state schools in the north of Portugal. Results show that most teachers aren’t yet acquainted with the concept of IDD. Still, the curricula made for students with IDD reflect a functional basis. It was also possible to check that Public-Law no. 3/2008 is being followed in the process of postsecondary transition (PST), regarding its beginning, conception and implementation. The study carried out a survey on the strengths and obstacles on the PST, having found that the cooperation between school, students and families is the basis for success, while most difficulties in the process lie in the cooperation between school and surrounding community.

Contribution à l'étude de la protection du preneur d'assurance après la directive sur la distribution d'assurances." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Poitiers, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020POIT3025.
Full textAbstract:
L'intervention du droit de l'Union européenne est croissante dans toutes les branches du droit, y compris en droit des assurances. S'agissant de la distribution d'assurance, la directive sur la distribution d'assurance (DDA), entrée en vigueur en 2018, témoigne d'une immixtion croissante des règles européennes. La présente thèse étudie la manière dont le droit de l'Union, et en particulier la DDA, modifie les contours français de la distribution d'assurance. Cette influence s'opère de différentes manières. D'abord, le champ d'application des règles encadrant l'activité est élargi, posant ainsi diverses questions terminologiques. Ensuite, le contenu de ces contraintes est revisité selon deux aspects.Le premier aspect est le plus novateur et largement issu de la DDA. Le droit européen intègre désormais une protection de la clientèle, prise de manière globale, en amont de l'acte de distribution. Il instaure à cet égard un arsenal de lutte contre les conflits d'intérêts, ainsi que des contraintes de gouvernance et de surveillance des produits. Ces règles nouvelles doivent permettre au preneur d'assurance de bénéficier d'un contexte plus favorable lorsqu'il souscrit ou adhère à un contrat d'assurance. La nouveauté de ces textes suscite des interrogations quant aux termes utilisés et à leur intégration en droit français.Le second aspect concerne la protection du preneur d'assurance telle que connue en France, au niveau individuel. Il s'agit alors pour le droit européen d'ajouter des obligations à la charge des professionnels en matière d'information et de conseil. Si ces exigences, destinées à éclairer le consentement du preneur, préexistent en droit français, elles se trouvent amplifiées par le droit de l'Union, dont la DDAThe European Union law involvement is increasing in all branches of law, including insurance law. Regarding to insurance distribution, the Insurance Distribution Directive (IDD), which entered into force in 2018, shows a growing interference of European rules. This thesis examines how Union law, and in particular IDD, is changing the French contours of insurance distribution. This influence takes place in different ways. First, the scope of the rules framing the activity is broadened, thus posing various terminological questions. Then, the content of these constraints is revisited according to two aspects.The first aspect is the most innovative and largely derived from the IDD. European law now incorporates customer protection, taken in a global way, before the act of distribution. In this regard, it establishes an arsenal to avoid conflicts of interest, as well as constraints on the product governance and oversight. These new rules should allow the policyholder to benefit from a more favourable context when he enters into or joins an insurance contract. The novelty of these texts raises questions about the terms used and their integration into French law.The second aspect concerns the policyholder's protection as known in France, at the individual level. It is then up to the European law to add obligations to the burden of professionals in the field of information and advice. While these requirements, intended to clarify the policyholder's consent, already exist in French law, they are amplified by Union law, including the IDD

Full textAbstract:
This study examines the motivation factors that make some individuals (terrorists) confidential informants. The study is based on the assumptions of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Herzberg’s motivation-hygiene theories. Accordingly, main assumption of the present study is that some individuals with unsatisfied needs in religion-abusing terrorist (RAT) networks choose to become confidential informants to satisfy their predominant needs. The main hypothesis for the purpose of this study is “The individuals’ decision-making processes to cooperate with law enforcement intelligence (LEI) as a confidential informant is affected by some motivation factors during recruitment process.” The present study tests 27 hypotheses in order to answer two main research questions. To meet its objectives the present study uses quantitative research methodology, constructs a cross-sectional research design, and employs secondary data analysis to test the hypotheses of the research questions. A dataset was formed based on official records of Turkish National Police by including all confidential informants within eight different RAT networks in Turkey. First, individual effect of each motivation factor on being a confidential informant is tested and discussed in detail. Then two group specific multivariate models for being an informant in Al-Qaeda and Turkish-Hezbollah are illustrated, compared and contrasted. Both bivariate and multivariate statistical analyses not only revealed the extent of individual effects of motivations among RAT groups, but also helped us to build fitting multivariate models that explain the probability of being informants in certain RAT networks. By doing so, the present study aims to make contributions to the literature and practice on this relatively unexplored phenomenon. Findings indicate that while some motivation factors are common among all RAT networks, the strength and direction of their effects vary among different RAT networks.

As reformas orientadas para o mercado realizadas no Brasil e no Equador a partir da década de 1980 e de 1990 diminuíram os gastos públicos e os recursos humanos das organizações nacionais de patrimônio cultural. Para suprir a demanda por tais recursos, surgiu, na arena política do patrimônio cultural, o agente financeiro internacional. Nesse contexto, esta dissertação busca compreender a relação de poder e as formas como são feitas as escolhas políticas entre os órgãos de patrimônio nacionais e a instituição multilateral que financia diversas políticas públicas culturais. Para tanto, partiu-se da experiência de dois países latino-americanos, o Brasil e o Equador, analisando em que medida os órgãos nacionais desobrigaram-se da realização das políticas públicas para o setor, sofrendo ingerência dos organismos financeiros internacionais. Estabeleceu-se como objeto de estudo três organizações o Banco Interamericano de Desenvolvimento (BID), o Instituto do Patrimônio Histórico e Artístico Nacional (IPHAN), no Brasil, e o Instituto Nacional de Patrimonio Cultural (Instituto de Patrimônio Cultural) (INPC), no Equador e recorreu-se à pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e de campo, bem como a entrevistas com gestores dos órgãos estudados. Confirmou-se a hipótese de que o processo de enfraquecimento das instituições nacionais de patrimônio cultural contribuiu decisivamente para que se retirasse, progressivamente, o poder de decidir, executar e avaliar políticas públicas de preservação do patrimônio cultural dos domínios do Estado. Entretanto, não se confirmou que as decisões se transferiram para organismos internacionais, mas sim para a iniciativa privada, buscando tornar os órgãos nacionais voltados àquele fim meros chanceladores de decisões tomadas fora deles. Verificou-se, ainda, que o processo de desmonte das instituições nacionais de patrimônio cultural brasileira e equatoriana se reverteu nos últimos anos com os governos dos presidentes Luis Inácio Lula da Silva e Rafael Corrêa, repercutindo, inclusive, na condução das políticas públicas financiadas pelo BID para o setor.The market-oriented reforms carried out in Brazil and Ecuador from the 1980s and 1990s diminished the public expenses and the human resources in the national organizations of cultural heritage. In order to meet the demand for those resources, the international financial agent has come up in the arena of cultural heritage policy. In this context, this thesis aims at understanding the power relation between the national heritage organs and the multilateral institution, which supports several policies of cultural heritage, as well as the ways they choose their policies. To do so, starting with the experiences from two Latin American countries, Brazil and Ecuador, an analysis was held in order to determine to what extent the national organs relieved themselves of accomplishing the public policies for the sector, which caused them to undergo interference by the international financial organs. As the object of study, three organizations were chosen: the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), the Instituto do Patrimônio Histórico e Artístico Nacional (National Institute of Artistic and Historical Heritage) (IPHAN), in Brazil, and the Instituto Nacional de Patrimonio Cultural (National Institute of Cultural Heritage) (INPC), in Ecuador. The research has used related literature, documentary and field research, as well as interviews with the managers of the organs in study. The hypothesis confirmed was that the process of weakening of the national institutions of cultural heritage has contributed decisively to deprive, progressively, the power to decide, implement and evaluate public policies for the preservation of cultural heritage of the State domains. However, it has not been proved that the decisions had been transferred to international organs; rather, to the public initiative, seeking to turn the national organs focused on preservation of heritage into mere chancellors of the decisions made apart from them. It has also been observed that the process of dismantling the Brazilian and Ecuadorian national institutions of cultural heritage was reversed in the last years during the government of Luis Inácio Lula da Silva and Rafael Corrêa, echoing, also, in the conduct of public policies for the sector sponsored by the IDB.

A study of performance measurements of TOC-TDD and IDD Student：Tsung Wen Wang Advisor：Dr. R. K. Li Master Program of Management for Executives National Chiao Tung University ABSTRACT The intention of this thesis is to discuss whether the existing varied performance measurements can lead all the members of company stride forward together to the objective of the company as a whole, or, on the contrary mislead the parts drop into the local optimum or even to proceed in the opposite direction？ The most important thing of the performance measurement is in order to induce the parts (subsystem) to do what is good for the system as a whole, therefore, measurements are not just numbers, and furthermore measurements are the vehicle to influence a behavior. For the sake of getting this purpose, Dr. Goldratt bring forward two breakthrough concepts in performance measurements- TDD(Throughput Dollar-Days) and IDD(Inventory Dollar-Days),by way of the mutual comparison as well as validation in-company major performance measurements of studied case with these two simple KPI, they root out that some golden rules which have been esteemed for a long time might result in local optimum even lead to damage the goal of whole company. Nevertheless, while they cut -in from the point of view of TDD and IDD, actually they can find that all kind of objectives will reach the same goal by different routes and hang together toward what is good for the company as a whole, it is really touch everybody with new and fresh field of vision. Through the comparison and validation of current performance measurements of studied case-factory with TDD&IDD, I found that these two KPI are not only capable of edge out their current performance measurements but also can lead the whole employee to do what is good for the company as a whole, I also try to cut-in from the other aspect of measurements to challenge the applicability of these two KPIs, but there is not any weak point can be attacked actually. Folksay that the more complicated the problem, the simpler the solution must be, these two KPI- TDD and IDD are look like very simple but they are approved not only capable of connecting varied performance measurements in harmony, moreover, they are in a position to induce the parts to do what is good for the system as a whole spontaneously, It is really impressed everyone! At the end of this research，it also bring forward how to extend the concepts of TDD and IDD to the application of other fields， as well as how to introduce TDD and IDD smoothly to subsystem.

abstract: The purpose of this instructional design and development study was to describe, evaluate and improve the instructional design process and the work of interdisciplinary design teams. A National Science Foundation (NSF) funded, Transforming Undergraduate Education in Science (TUES) project was the foundation for this study. The project developed new curriculum materials to teach learning content in unsaturated soils in undergraduate geotechnical engineering classes, a subset of the civil engineering. The study describes the instructional design (ID) processes employed by the team members as they assess the need, develop the materials, disseminate the learning unit, and evaluate its effectiveness, along with the impact the instructional design process played in the success of the learning materials with regard to student achievement and faculty and student attitudes. Learning data were collected from undergraduate geotechnical engineering classes from eight partner universities across the country and Puerto Rico over three phases of implementation. Data were collected from students and faculty that included pretest/posttest scores and attitudinal survey questions. The findings indicated a significant growth in the learning with the students of the faculty who were provided all learning materials. The findings also indicated an overall faculty and student satisfaction with the instructional materials. Observational and anecdotal data were also collected in the form of team meeting notes, personal observations, interviews and design logs. Findings of these data indicated a preference with working on an interdisciplinary instructional design team. All these data assisted in the analysis of the ID process, providing a basis for descriptive and inferential data used to provide suggestions for improving the ID process and the work of interdisciplinary instructional design teams.Dissertation/Thesis

To consider the principle of continuously improvement and management, we know that focus on global performance is the key. But in fact, we find the departments of business are so emphasize on local benefits that hurt the global performance and create so many problems to managers. This is because the current KPI is not link the local performance to global performance. Two performance measurement indices TDD and IDD proposed by Dr. Goldratt claim that they can link local performance to global performance. In order to verify this advocation, this research first collects a series of KPI currently used by most semiconductor fab. Secondly, each KPI is reviewed and studied to see it whether can link local performance to global performance or not. Finally, a study of whether TDD/IDD can replace it is performance. Results of the study show that the KPI which currently used by the industries of semiconductor will fall into the trap that critically emphasize the local performance. Use TDD and IDD not only avoid the problems which produce by emphasize the local performance but also provide the managers a speedy and clearly direction of improvement.

Full textAbstract:
Bioactive gibberellins (GAs) are phytohormones with various effects on plant development, from seed germination through fruit development. The signaling pathway of GA is centered on DELLA proteins (DELLAs), a group of growth repressors degraded upon perception of GA. Previous studies demonstrated that DELLAs administrate global regulation of gene expression. However, given that DELLAs do not contain any canonical DNA-binding domain and that DELLAs only have a moderate association to their target promoters, the nuclear-localized DELLAs are believed to interact with transcription factors for function. Indeed, quite a few transcription factors have been identified as DELLA interactors in the plant model Arabidopsis thaliana, some of which are well-known downstream transcription regulators involved in other signaling pathways. Nevertheless, the molecular mechanisms how DELLAs inhibit so many aspects of plant growth cannot be fully explained by the known DELLA interactors.
Recently, our lab discovered that INDETERMINATE DOMAIN 1 (IDD1), a C2H2 zinc-finger protein in Arabidopsis, and its closest homolog IDD2, have a strong physical interaction with DELLAs, revealing the potential involvement of these two IDD genes in GA signaling. Hence, the objectives of my doctoral research are (1) to evaluate the roles of IDD1 and IDD2 in GA-responsive phenotypes, (2) to investigate the genetic interaction between IDD1, IDD2 and DELLAs and (3) to identify the function of IDD1 and IDD2 and the significance of IDD-DELLA interaction in transcriptional regulation of IDD/DELLA targets. First, we found that both IDDs redundantly promote GA-induced hypocotyl elongation, and that they also play a positive role in stem elongation and floral initiation. Secondly, epistasis analyses exhibit that REPRESSOR OF ga1-3 (RGA) and GA INSENSITIVE (GAI), two DELLAs with a predominant role in vegetative growth, antagonize IDD1 and IDD2 in hypocotyl elongation, and that GAI also opposes IDD2 in stem elongation and floral initiation. These results entail an antagonistic relationship between IDDs and DELLAs via protein-protein interaction. We then showed that IDD1 and IDD2 repress the expression of canonical DELLA direct targets, including GA20ox2, GA3ox1, GID1b and SCL3. IDD1 also inhibits transcription of CAPRICE (CPC) and GLABRA2 (GL2), two crucial regulators of root epidermal cell patterning. Taking into account that IDD1 and RGA associate with the same region in CPC promoter, we conclude that CPC is a direct target of the IDD1/RGA complex. In addition, transient expression assays suggested that IDD1 and RGA counteract each other's effects on expression of GA20ox2, GID1b, SCL3, CPC and GL2, providing evidence that IDDs and DELLAs function antagonistically in transcriptional regulation of downstream genes in general. Although both IDDs bear a putative repression motif GLGLGL in their C termini, mutation of this motif did not affect the repressive activity of IDD1 in our transient expression system. On the other hand, fusion of the viral protein 16 (VP16) transcriptional activation domain to IDD1 seems to override the original repressive activity of IDD1. Together, these results uncover a new branch of GA signaling pathway through IDD1 and IDD2, shed light on the interplay of the two IDDs and DELLAs in GA feedback regulation and give insights into the molecular mechanism underlying IDD-mediated GA repression of root hair development.

Full textAbstract:
INTRODUCTION: The OTPN at Massachusetts General Hospital works to reduce barriers to care and implement tailored accommodations to improve patients with ASD/IDD access to and participation in healthcare. A quality improvement project was conducted to understand the OTPN interventions perceived as valuable by the recipients of care.
THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE AND EVIDENCE: Patients with ASD/IDD experience unmet healthcare needs and low patient satisfaction when accessing healthcare. Wagner’s Chronic Care Model was used as a framework to understand the factors that contribute to this problem. Current literature provides evidence-based strategies to improve the quality of care for patients with ASD when accessing healthcare services, but lacks descriptive evidence from the patient and caregiver perspective.
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with three clients of the OTPN (one former patient with ASD and two parents of former patients). Using the phenomenological method, data was collected and analyzed to develop themes identified among participants. A follow-up interview with the OTPN obtained the OT perspective that informed the interventions valued by project participants.
RESULTS: Participants identified barriers to care prior to collaborating with the OTPN, as well as valued OTPN interventions that involved patient-centered anticipatory planning, advocacy, and coordination of care. The OTPN used her OT perspective to understand the intersection of the person, environment and occupation to inform interventions that improved the patient experience.
CONCLUSION: Customized interventions provided by the OTPN were highly valued by previous clients and were perceived to improve their healthcare experience by addressing unique patient needs and preferences.

Full textAbstract:
La presente ricerca si propone di approfondire gli effetti nel mercato assicurativo della nuova disciplina contenuta nella direttiva 2016/97/UE del Parlamento europeo e del Consiglio (Insurance Distribution Directive, IDD). Lo studio è stato mosso dalla volontà di condurre un'attenta analisi ed una disamina della normativa che si è succeduta nel tempo in materia di distribuzione dei prodotti assicurativi, al fine di metterne in evidenza tutte le peculiarità e le differenze tra la disciplina previgente e quella attuale e di mostrarne eventuali punti dubbi e critici attraverso una prospettiva non solo di diritto interno, ma anche e soprattutto europea dal momento in cui non deve essere affatto sottovalutata la circostanza per cui il fenomeno assicurativo ha avuto origine ed è rimasto collocato in una dimensione sovranazionale, in perfetta sintonia alla realizzazione del progetto diretto alla creazione di un mercato unico dei servizi finanziari e delle assicurazioni. Fulcro dell'elaborato è l'indagine puntuale dei profili giuridici ed operativi degli istituti e degli strumenti creati dal legislatore comunitario e recepiti da quello nazionale, utili a consentire la migliore protezione dell’assicurando nel corso delle trattative finalizzate alla conclusione dell’accordo. Si vedrà come la volontà del legislatore sovranazionale è stata l’introduzione di un’equiparazione sostanziale tra il ruolo dell’impresa assicurativa e quello dell’intermediario che realizza i prodotti offerti in vendita; scelta che ha sovvertito del tutto la disciplina previgente contenuta nella direttiva IMD. Oltre alla previsione di obblighi di disclosure e di regole di comportamento improntate alla trasparenza, all'adeguatezza ed alla conformità della distribuzione dei prodotti offerti alle effettive esigenze del cliente/consumatore, novità di fondamentale importanza è stata l’introduzione della Product Oversigh and Governance (POG), un nuovo sistema di governo e controllo da attuare anche sulla fase precedente dell’ideazione del prodotto assicurativo, diretto ad evitare che vengano commercializzati prodotti non adeguati alle reali esigenze della clientela. Si vedrà come per essere pienamente compliant alle regole POG sviluppate sia a livello europeo che domestico, le imprese di assicurazione e gli intermediari assicurativi che realizzano prodotti da vendere ai clienti sono tenuti ad elaborare e adottare presìdi stabili in materia di governo e controllo del prodotto che prevedano misure appropriate e procedure lineari finalizzate all'ideazione, al monitoraggio, alla revisione e alla distribuzione dei prodotti e al contempo proporzionate al grado di complessità e rischiosità degli stessi, oltre che alla natura e alle dimensioni dell'attività svolta dai soggetti produttori. La IDD con tutte le sue novità ha rappresentato una “rivoluzione copernicana” che ha stravolto l’ottica dell’intermediazione assicurativa originaria in vista di una nuova fase della distribuzione in cui l’attenzione non è rivolta più al prodotto ma al singolo soggetto come cliente/consumatore meritevole di tutela. Solo se tutte le nuove disposizioni continueranno ad essere tradotte in un concreto miglioramento dei processi distributivi, il settore assicurativo potrebbe davvero cambiare volto e aumenterebbe ancora di più la fiducia e l’interesse della clientela per il ricorso a corrette e adeguate coperture assicurative per la gestione dei rischi. Ciò, nonostante alcune persistenti criticità e lacune del sistema da rivedere e alle quali il legislatore dovrà porre rimedio.

The overall purpose of this study was to describe a model for the development of women in construction in the Limpopo Province of South Africa. To achieve this purpose two phases were used i.e., the two stage empirical phase that employed a mixed method research process to identify and understand the development needs of women in construction and a theory-generation phase, which consisted of 8 stages that interfaced with phase 1 The population of the study were stakeholders in the construction industry namely, women contractors who are active grade 2 (registered as such on the CIDB register of contractors) and owner-managers in the Limpopo Province of South Africa, representative of the board of the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB), Construction Education and Training Authority (CETA), the Independent Development Trust (IDT), the Council for the Built Environment (CBE) and the South African Women in Construction (SAWIC). Qualitative data was collected through in-depth one-on-one interviews, whilst quantitative data was gathered through administering questionnaires. Six (6) stakeholders participated in the interviews and out of the targeted 167 in the CIDB register, 120 completed the questionnaires. The results of the empirical phase were subjected to the 8-step method of theory generation according to Chinn and Kramer (2011:152- 205). A conceptual framework for the model for development of rural women in construction was organized by applying the proposed elements of a practice theory according to Dickhoff, James & Wiedenbach (1968) and Barnum (1994). The theoretical evaluation of a model was done utilizing Chinn and Kramer (2011:205) criteria for evaluation of a theory. Guidelines to operationalize the theory were also described as well as recommendations and conclusion.

Dissertação de Mestrado apresentada no ISPA – Instituto Universitário para obtenção de grau de Mestre na especialidade de Psicologia Educacional.O presente trabalho teve como objetivo compreender como é realizada a educação literária numa instituição para jovens e adultos com “Dificuldade Intelectual e Desenvolvimental” (DID). Mais especificamente, quis-se 1) Caraterizar o contexto institucional no que se refere à intervenção na área da literacia quanto ao meio envolvente e às atividades de literacia; e 2) Caraterizar os clientes da instituição quanto às suas competências de literacia e a motivação para a leitura. Como estratégia de pesquisa optou-se pelo estudo de caso, em que a unidade em análise correspondeu a uma instituição particular de solidariedade social (IPSS), intitulada de “Quinta-essência – Qe, Uma Nova Linguagem para a Incapacidade”, constituída sob a forma de associação civil sem fins lucrativos para jovens e adultos com DID. Participaram neste estudo 8 clientes do Centro de Atividades Ocupacionais (CAO) da Qe. Como metodologia de recolha de dados optou-se pela observação participante, completada com o registo estruturado (duas grelhas de observação pedagógicas no domínio da leitura e da escrita) e um conjunto de provas desenvolvidas no âmbito da investigação em literacia emergente. De um modo geral, considera-se que este estudo respondeu aos objetivos a que se propôs. Os resultados apresentados revelaram que a Qe valoriza a educação literária dos seus clientes, pois, para o efeito, investe em diferentes áreas de trabalho organizadas, em projetos e atividades diversificadas e frequentes, facilitando os recursos necessários ao seu desenvolvimento. Além disso, verificou-se que os clientes analisados estão aptos e motivados para a aquisição e desenvolvimento da literacia.
This paper aimed to understand how literary education is held in an institution for young people and adults with “Intellectual and Developmental Difficulty” (IDD). Specifically, it was intended to 1) Characterize the institutional context with regard to intervention in the area of literacy regarding the environment and literacy activities; and 2) Characterize the institution's clients regarding their literacy skills and reading motivation. The research strategy adopted was the case study, in which the unit under analysis corresponded to a particular social solidarity institution (IPSS), entitled “Quinta-essência – Qe, Uma Nova Linguagem para a Incapacidade”, constituted under the non-profit civil association for young people and adults with IDD. Eight clients from Qe's Occupational Activities Center (OAC) participated in this study. The data collection methodology used was the participant observation, complemented by a structured register (two pedagogical observation grids in the field of reading and writing) and a set of tests developed in the emerging literacy research. In general, it is considered that this study responded to the objectives set. The results showed that Qe values the literary education of its clients, because, for this purpose, it invests in different organized work areas, in diverse and frequent projects and activities, facilitating the necessary resources for its development. In addition, it was found that the clients analyzed are able and motivated for the acquisition and development of literacy.

Relatório de estágio de mestrado em Educação (área de especialização em Educação de Adultos e Intervenção Comunitária)De acordo com a Associação Portuguesa de Deficientes, há cerca de meio milhão de pessoas com Dificuldade Intelectual e Desenvolvimental (DID) em Portugal. Por isso, torna-se crucial a conceção de espaços físicos/infraestruturas, que consigam dar resposta às necessidades apresentadas por esta população. Logo é imprescindível que estes locais viabilizem a criação de condições que promovam a qualidade de vida e o bem-estar destes indivíduos. O projeto “Estimulação Multissensorial e Cognitiva em Adultos com Dificuldades Intelectuais e Desenvolvimentais: prevenção do declínio cognitivo e promoção da qualidade de vida” foi desenvolvido num Centro de Atividades Ocupacionais que alberga 70 adultos com DID e teve, como finalidade, a promoção da autonomia e bem-estar destes adultos. Assim sendo, e tendo sempre como referência os interesses, as necessidades e as potencialidades do público-alvo, foram criadas diversas atividades, sustentadas em duas linhas orientadoras: a Estimulação Multissensorial e a Estimulação Cognitiva. Através da análise ao processo e aos resultados foi possível comprovar que se alcançaram resultados bastante positivos, resultados que permitem evidenciar a importância e a pertinência da intervenção em contexto de Centro de Atividades Ocupacionais.
According to the Disabled Portuguese Association (Associação Portuguesa de Deficientes), there are about half a million of individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) in Portugal. Thus, it is essential to create physical facilities adapted to the disabled people’s needs, which promote their life quality and well-being. This project “Cognitive and Multisensory Stimulation in Adults with Developmental and Intellectual Difficulties: prevention of cognitive decline and life quality promotion” was developed in an Occupational Activity Centre that provides lodging for 70 adults with IDD which has as purpose the promotion of their autonomy and well-being. Having always as a reference the interests, needs and potentialities of the target audience, several activities were anchored on two guiding lines: Multisensory Stimulation and Cognitive Stimulation. Through the process analysis and its results, it was possible to prove the importance and the relevance of Occupational Activity Centres in context.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Psicologia apresentada à Faculdade de Psicologia e de Ciências da EducaçãoA presente investigação tem como objetivo primordial estudar a influência do programa de intervenção educativa PIAAR-R nos níveis de atenção e de reflexividade em adultos com Dificuldade Intelectual e Desenvolvimental (DID). O estudo apresenta-se como uma investigação quase-experimental,sendo a amostra constituída por 20 adultos que frequentavam dois Centros de Atividades Ocupacionais (CAO) da APPACDM de Lisboa, com idades compreendidas entre os 20 e 63 anos, de ambos os sexos (65% do sexo masculino e 35% do sexo feminino).A avaliação da Atenção e Reflexividade foram medidas com base nos seguintes testes, Trail Making Test e Teste de Atenção por Cancelamento,recolhidos em três momentos: Pré-Teste, Pós-Teste e Follow Up. Após se ter realizado o pré-teste, iniciou-se a aplicação do Programa PIAAR-R durante seis semanas. Após o seu término, realizou-se um pós teste (dois dias depois)e um Follow Up (com a diferença de um mês após o término do programa).Os resultados deste estudo, foram obtidos num contexto individual e de grupo, num ritmo de duas vezes por semana, tendo por vezes este ritmo sido alterado consoante as necessidades de cada sujeito. O período de avaliação decorreu entre 22 Novembro de 2016 e 24 Maio de 2017. Os níveis de Reflexividade e de Atenção no Pré-Teste nesta amostra são inferiores aos resultados de populações ditas normais. O programa educativo teve efeitos significativos no incremento da Reflexividade quer no Pós-Teste quer no Follow Up; quanto aos níveis de Atenção, apesar de se ter verificado um incremento, este não demonstrou ser significativo; demonstrando uma eficácia parcial do PIAAR-R, levando-nos a questionar possíveis adaptações para este tipo de população.
The present research has as main objective to study the influence of the educational intervention program PIAAR-R in the levels of attention and reflexivity in adults with Intellectual and Developmental Difficulty (IDD). The present study comprehends a quasi-experimental design. The sample consists of 20 adults who attended two Occupational Activity Centers (CAO) of the APPACDM in Lisbon, aged between 20 and 63 years of age, both sexes (65% male and 35% female). Attention and Reflexivity were measured based on the following tests,Trail Making Test and Cancellation Attention Test, collected in three moments: Pre-Test, Post-Test and Follow Up. After the pre-test, The PIAAR-R Program was applied for six weeks and two days after its completion, a post-test and a follow-up (with the difference of one month after the end of the program). The results of this study were obtained within individual and group context, at a rate of twice a week, and this rhythm had at times to be altered according to the needs of each subject. The evaluation period ran from November 22, 2016 to May 24, 2017. The levels of Reflexivity and Attention in the Pretest in this sample are lower than the results of normal populations. The educational program had significant effects on the increase of Reflexivity in both the Post-test and Follow Up; while levels of Attention despite increasing, were not significantly, suggesting a partial efficacy of PIAAR-R, leading us to question possible adaptations for this type of population.
