Full textEsta tesis se centra en la tendencia ascendente de la organización plana y la autogestión en la organización posburocrática. Recientemente, ha surgido un sistema organizativo llamado holacracia como un sistema organizativo menos jerárquico pero burocrático. Mediante un estudio etnográfico longitudinal, esta tesis examina empíricamente cómo es capaz de funcionar una organización que practica la holacracia, para teorizar el fenómeno de la organización posburocrática. Además, esta tesis investiga empíricamente cómo se ven afectados los gerentes desanimados por la conversión de la organización a la autogestión y, a su vez, pueden afectar a la organización. Finalmente, esta tesis explora y conceptualiza la utilidad de la subjetividad y la intimidad en el enfoque de investigación del fenómeno novedoso. Esta tesis contribuye a la teoría organizacional al introducir un modelo de burocracia pluralista, explicando cómo la autonomía y el alineamiento dentro de una burocracia pluralista pueden reconciliarse en lugar de permanecer en la paradoja. También analiza cómo el poder se relaciona con la identidad cuando los gerentes enfrentan la pérdida de su estatus posicional sin perder sus puestos de trabajo en una transformación organizacional en holacracia. Finalmente, esta tesis presenta una teorización temprana sobre el concepto de intimidad hermenéutica, al ofrecer un enfoque metodológico matizado para navegar la relación y el yo para producir una investigación de alta calidad.
This thesis focuses on the rising trend of flat organization and self-management in the post-bureaucratic organization. Recently, an organizational system called holacracy has emerged as a less hierarchical yet bureaucratic organizational system. Through longitudinal ethnographic study, this thesis empirically examines how an organization practicing holacracy is able to function, in order to theorize the phenomenon of post-bureaucratic organization. Additionally, this thesis empirically investigates how managers unmoored by the organization’s conversion to self-management are affected and in turn may affect the organization. Finally, this thesis explores and conceptualizes the usefulness of subjectivity and intimacy in the research approach of novel phenomenon. This thesis contributes to organizational theory by introducing a model of pluralistic bureaucracy, explaining how autonomy and alignment within a pluralistic bureaucracy can be reconciled rather than remaining in paradox. It also analyzes how power relates to identity as managers cope with losing their positional status without losing their jobs in an organizational transformation to holacracy. Finally, this thesis presents early theorization on the concept of hermeneutic intimacy, by offering a nuanced methodological approach for navigating relationship and self to produce high-quality research.

Full textLa esquizotipia se configura como un continuum de síntomas subclínicos y clínicos, y del funcionamiento que en su extremo se manifiesta como trastornos del espectro de la esquizofrenia. La esquizotipia y la esquizofrenia comparten una estructura multidimensional comparable, siendo las dimensiones positivas y negativas los factores más respaldados. Estudios transversales previos que emplearon la estrategia psicométrica de alto riesgo indicaron que la esquizotipia es un método útil para identificar los factores de riesgo y los de protección para el desarrollo de la psicopatología del espectro esquizofrénico. Sin embargo, las investigaciones longitudinales siguen siendo escasas. El cuerpo de la tesis incluye tres capítulos que investigan la validez predictiva de las dimensiones positivas y negativas de la esquizotipia, la estabilidad temporal de los síntomas y rasgos del espectro de esquizofrenia en individuos con alta esquizotipia, y el papel de la esquizotipia positiva y negativa como posibles marcadores de riesgo distal que moderan las asociaciones de los estresores con síntomas casi-psicóticos, paranoides y negativos experimentados en la vida diaria en una muestra no-clínica. El Capítulo 1 presenta un estudio destinado a ampliar los hallazgos transversales previos examinando si la esquizotipia negativa y positiva basales, valoradas psicométricamente, predicen diferencialmente los síntomas prodrómicos, los trastornos de personalidad del espectro de la esquizofrenia y el funcionamiento 3 años después. Además, examina la estabilidad temporal de estos constructos durante un período de 1,4 años. Ambas dimensiones esquizotípicas basales predijeron síntomas de la personalidad esquizotípica, paranoide, y evitativa además de deterioro en el funcionamiento. La esquizotipia positiva predijo síntomas casi-psicóticos, depresión, baja autoestima y psicopatología general. La esquizotipia negativa predijo trastornos emocionales y personalidad esquizoide, y haber recibido tratamiento de salud mental durante el último año. Las personalidades, los síntomas prodrómicos y el funcionamiento predijeron los mismos constructos 1,4 años después. El Capítulo 2 describe un estudio destinado a extender nuestros hallazgos anteriores al examinar longitudinalmente si la esquizotipia positiva y negativa predice síntomas y deterioro en el funcionamiento 4.4 años después. Este estudio investiga la validez de los síntomas negativos medidos por dos instrumentos de entrevista. La esquizotipia negativa predijo de manera única los rasgos esquizoides, los síntomas negativos, el deterioro en el funcionamiento y esquemas cognitivos positivos de los otros. La esquizotipia positiva predijo de manera única los rasgos de la personalidad evitativa y esquemas cognitivos negativos de los otros. Ambas dimensiones predijeron rasgos de las personalidades esquizotípica y paranoide, sospecha, depresión y esquemas negativos del yo. Las dos dimensiones predijeron síntomas positivos y una disminución de los esquemas positivos de los otros. Los resultados indican que la sub-escala negativa de la CAARMS está saturada por desregulación afectiva, mientras que el NSM parece ser un instrumento válido para evaluar síntomas negativos. El Capítulo 3 presenta un estudio que investiga la expresión de la esquizotipia positiva y negativa en la vida real usando la técnica Experience Sampling Methodology. El estudio examina las asociaciones longitudinales de la esquizotipia positiva y negativa, así como su asociación transversal con las experiencias esquizotípicas en la vida diaria. Busca extender los estudios previos al investigar cómo el estrés predice la expresión en el entorno real de los síntomas psicóticos, paranoicos y negativos en individuos con esquizotipia alta. La esquizotipia positiva predijo síntomas casi-psicóticos y paranoides, la negativa predijo un subconjunto de estos síntomas y mostró una tendencia hacia la significación en la predicción de síntomas negativos.
Schizotypy is operationalized as a continuum of personality traits, subclinical and clinical symptoms as well as impairment that, in its extreme form, is manifested as schizophrenia-spectrum disorders. Schizotypy and schizophrenia share a comparable multidimensional structure with positive and negative dimensions being the most strongly supported factors. Previous cross-sectional studies employing the psychometric high-risk strategy indicated that schizotypy is a useful method for identifying risk and resilience factors for the development of schizophrenia-spectrum psychopathology. However, longitudinal investigations remain scarce. This thesis includes three chapters investigating the predictive validity of positive and negative schizotypy dimensions, the temporal stability of schizophrenia-spectrum symptoms and traits in high schizotypy individuals, and the role of positive and negative schizotypy as potential distal risk markers moderating the association of stress with psychotic-like, paranoid, and negative symptoms experienced in the real life environment. Chapter 1 presents a study aimed at extending previous cross-sectional findings by investigating whether baseline psychometrically assessed negative and positive schizotypy differentially predict clinical risk symptoms, schizophrenia-spectrum personality disorders (PDs), and functioning in a nonclinical sample 3 years later. Additionally, this study examines the temporal stability of these constructs over a 1.4-year period. Both Time 1 (T1) schizotypy dimensions predicted schizotypal, paranoid, avoidant PDs, and functioning at Time 3 (T3). Positive schizotypy specifically predicted psychotic-like symptoms, depression, low self-esteem, and general psychopathology at T3. Negative schizotypy predicted emotional disturbances and schizoid PD at T3, as well as receiving mental health treatment over the past year. PDs, prodromal symptoms, and functioning assessed at Time 2 (T2) predicted the same constructs at T3. Chapter 2 describes a study aimed to extend our previous findings by examining whether longitudinal assessment of baseline positive and negative schizotypy at baseline predicted interview-based ratings of symptoms and impairment 4.4 years later. Furthermore, since the relationship between negative schizotypy traits and symptoms with depressive symptoms remains an unresolved issue, this study investigated the validity of negative symptoms as measured by two interview instruments. Baseline negative schizotypy uniquely predicted schizoid PD traits, negative symptoms, impaired functioning, and diminished positive self-schemas at the 4-year follow-up. Baseline positive schizotypy uniquely predicted avoidant PD traits and negative other-schemas. Both dimensions predicted schizotypal and paranoid PD traits, suspiciousness, depression, and negative self-schemas 4.4 years later. In addition, the two dimensions predicted positive symptoms (the effect size was larger for positive schizotypy) and diminished positive other-schemas (the effect size was larger for negative schizotypy). Baseline negative, but not positive, schizotypy predicted negative symptoms as assessed by CAARMS and NSM. However, only the prediction of NSM negative symptoms by negative schizotypy remained significant after controlling for affective dysregulation (i.e., dimensional scores of avoidant personality, anxiety and depression). Chapter 3 presents a study investigating the real-life expression of positive and negative schizotypy using the Experience Sampling Method. This study examined the prospective association of baseline positive and negative schizotypy as well as their cross-sectional association with schizotypic symptoms and experiences in daily life. Moreover, this report sought to extend previous research by investigating how daily life stress and social contact differentially predicted the real life expression of psychotic-like, paranoid, and negative symptoms in high schizotypy individuals.

Full textIn adolescence, brain maturation involves subtle global and regional anatomical changes, and estimating the exact morphology of some structures during post-pubertal development is therefore difficult. Effect of sexual dimorphism on brain maturation has been under-explored prospectively by magnetic resonance imaging. In this context, this work is focused on the longitudinal study of the effects of sex on brain maturation using two methods to control and analyze the spatial positioning variations of images acquired at different time points. In a first study using a multimodal approach, our goal was to examine sexual dimorphism in brain maturation of the limbic system to explain the emotional differences between girls and boys during adolescence. We adapted a method of longitudinal processing on anatomical and diffusion images of 335 healthy adolescents between 14 and 16 years. We highlighted sexual differences in brain maturation of the limbic system with a later maturation of boys compared to girls. These changes mediated sexual differences in emotional regulation, illustrated by an increase in positive personality traits in boys and a decrease in girls. In a second study using an original registration approach, our objective was to estimate and extrapolate maturation trajectories based on sexual dimorphism. We highlighted divergent trajectories between girls and boys between 14 and 16, illustrating a differentiation in maturation rates that increased during this period, specifically in the prefrontal cortex. These differential trajectories made it possible to estimate a maturational advance of 5 months in girls in the prefrontal cortex. All these results provide useful information for a better understanding of the differences in brain maturation between girls and boys, and their links with the emotional system dysregulation and therefore the vulnerability to depression in adolescence

Full textTiivistelmä Tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli pitkäaikaisseurannassa selvittää taaperoikäisiltä lapsilta otettujen sylkitestien ja muiden määritettyjen riskitekijöiden mahdollista yhteyttä karieksen kehittymiseen. Erityisesti haluttiin myös tutkia pitkittyneen tutin käytön merkitystä. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 183:sta alle kouluikäisestä lapsesta. Aloitusvaiheessa otettiin mikrobiologiset sylkitestit lapsilta, joiden keski-ikä oli 2,5 vuotta, ja määritettiin anamnestisesti mahdolliset riskitekijät laktobasillien ja hiivasienten kolonisaatiolle. Kahden vuoden seurannan jälkeen tutkittiin riskin toteutumista maitohampaiden karioitumisessa. Seuraavassa seitsemän vuoden seurantatutkimuksessa tutkittiin karieskehitystä maitomolaareissa ja ensimmäisissä pysyvissä molaareissa kahden vuoden iässä määritetyissä riskiryhmissä. Myös syljen mikrobiologisten testien avulla määritetyn riskin toteutumista selvitettiin seitsemän vuoden seurannan päätyttyä. Tutkimuksen aloitusvaiheen sylkitestitulokset osoittivat, että tutin käyttö ja tuttipullon käyttö öisin olivat yhteydessä syljen kariekseen liittyviin mikrobeihin, ja ne voivat siten lisätä kariesaktiivisuutta maitohampaistossa. Kahden vuoden seurantatutkimuksessa todettiinkin, että karieskehitys oli yhteydessä aikaisemmin määritettyihin riskitekijöihin: pitkittyneeseen tutin käyttöön ja tuttipullon käyttöön öisin. Seitsemän vuoden seurantatutkimuksen tulokset osoittivat, että makeisten käyttö kaksivuotiaana, puutteellinen hampaiden harjaus ja tuttipullon käyttö öisin ovat riskitekijöitä sekä maitomolaarien että ensimmäisten pysyvien molaarien karieskehitykselle. Fluoritablettien käyttö vähensi maitomolaarien karioitumista. Myös varhain tehdyillä syljen mikrobiologisilla testeillä oli pitkäaikainen ennustusarvo. Tulokset osoittavat, että riskin määritys taaperoikäisten lasten karieskehitykselle voidaan tehdä varhaisessa vaiheessa sekä mikrobiologisten sylkitestien avulla että määrittelemällä muiden mahdollisten riskitekijöiden esiintyvyys. Varhaisen kariesriskin määrityksen avulla voidaan ehkäisevät hoitotoimenpiteet kohdistaa ajoissa riskiryhmille ja siten ehkäistä karieskehitystä ja korjaavan karieshoidon tarvetta lapsilla

Full textDen här studien undersöker emblemanvändning explorativt i förälder-barninteraktion. Emblem definieras som konventionella gester med en verbal motsvarighet. Målet i denna studie var att undersöka om emblemanvändning underlättar språktillägnande. Fasta gester – gester tillhörande sånger – undersöktes som en underkategori till emblem. 20 barn och deras föräldrar spelades in när de interagerade fritt vid sju ålderspunkter: 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 och 24 månader vilket också korrelerades med barnets produktiva ordförråd vid 30 månader. Resultaten visade att föräldrars emblemanvändning vid 24 månader och barns emblemanvändning vid 15 månader korrelerade med barnens ordförråd vid 30 månader, vilket indikerar att emblemanvändning vid dessa ålderspunkter förutsäger ordförrådets storlek några månader senare. T-tester visade att emblemproducering hos barn skiljde sig åt mellan gruppen med barn med lägre produktivt ordförråd och gruppen med barn med högre produktivt ordförråd. Vid 15 månader fanns också en signifikant skillnad mellan grupperna vilket indikerar att emblem spelar en viktig roll vid språktillägnandet. Fasta gester visade ingen korrelation med barnets språkutveckling. Barnens emblemproduktion utvecklades med åldern och troligtvis tillsammans med ordproduktion. Föräldrar verkar justera sitt emblemanvändande till barnets ålder och/eller språkkunskaper, vilket indikerar att ett barnriktat gestikulerande finns vid förälder-barn interaktion.
