Abstract:
Si les recherches ont établi la validité prédictive des centres d'évaluation (CE) dans le domaine du recrutement, leur validité de construit n'a pas été démontrée. Dans notre recherche, nous tentons de mettre en place une procédure permettant de mettre à l'épreuve la validité de construit et la validité prédictive de notre CE sur une population de 125 officiers de Marine. Cette procédure comprend l'évaluation de l'efficience mentale (habiletés spécifiques et facteur g), de la personnalité (Cinq Grands), et de dimensions spécifiques à des épreuves de mise en situation (jeu de rôle, in basket, entretien structuré, épreuve de groupe évaluées grâce à des grilles comportementales). En premier lieu, des analyses factorielles exploratoires sont conduites pour identifier des dimensions spécifiques à ces épreuves de mise en situation. Dans une perspective nomologique, nous étudierons également les liens entre ces dimensions et les scores obtenus aux échelles de personnalité et d'intelligence. Dans une deuxième partie, nous étudions les liens entre nos prédicteurs et un critère de performance ultérieur évalué en moyenne quatre ans après. Les résultats montrent que le facteur "Conscience" ainsi que les aptitudes verbales sont significativement liés à la réussite professionnelle. Les dimensions "Initiative" et "travail en équipe" de l'épreuve de groupe ainsi que la dimension "Délégation et contrôle" de l'épreuve in basket apportent une variance expliquée spécifique par rapport à l'utilisation des variables d'intelligence et de personnalité. Nos résultats suggèrent que le CE appréhende à la fois des variables dispositionnelles et des compétences spécifiques
Although research has established the criterion-related validity of assessment centres (AC) for selection purpose, their construct validity has not be demonstrated. This study is an attempt in AC research to apply both construct and criterion validation strategies to a sample of 125 military officers. The selection procedure assessed cognitive ability (specific abilities and g factor), personality (Big Five factors), and dimensions measured by four AC exercices (role play, in basket, group discussion, structured interview assessed with behavioral checklists). First, exploratory factor analyses were conducted to establish construct validity of the different exercices. In a nomological perspective, we also analysed the links between the exercices dimensions, personality inventories and intelligence scales. A second part of our work analysed the hypothetical links between predictors and performance criteria, assessed four years later (on average). Results show that the factors Conscientiousness and verbal abilities were significantly related to work performance. The dimensions of "Initiative" and "Teamwork" as measured by a group discussion and the dimension "Control and delegation" as measured by a basket exercise provided incremental variance in job performance, beyond cognitive ability and personality. The findings suggest that AC shows both validity generalisation and situational specificity

Abstract:
La réalité clinique que nous rencontrons dans un cadre psychanalytique classique ou lors desséances psychanalytiques nous amène, souvent en premier-plan, des moments où les patientsutilisent ce cadre comme un instrument de construction, une construction qui se réalise dans lenégatif de la relation avec le psychanalyste, comme une tentative de recréer la « formeoriginaire ». Il s’agit des moments dans lesquels le patient amène dans la situation analytique desformes de manifestation des expériences archaïques ou du potentiel traumatique, des formesappartenant à un espace-temps non psychisé, potentiel, un temps qui garde l’actualité de sesexpressions suite à un manque traitement, d’élaboration de ses contenus.J’ai commencé en partant des deux hypothèses suivantes :L’apparition violente des éléments archaïques ou celle du potentiel traumatique dans la situationanalytique représente une forme de manifestation de l’actuel, qui n’a pas la forme élaborée d’unemétaphore, ni la forme primaire de la représentation, mais une forme archaïque, inaccessible à lapsychisation, dans une forme semblable à la présentation, Darstellung, qui aspire à la représentation,c’est-à-dire à une transformation dans une forme accessible aux processus primairesd’élaboration.Au moment où les expériences archaïques et le potentiel traumatique pénètrent violemment lasituation analytique avec des réalités archaïques en répétant un actuel qui est en dehors du tempspsychique de celui des patients, ceux-là ils veulent vivre et se trouver un Ici et Maintenant.Chacun des cas présentés dans cette thèse représente des expériences qui ont tout d'aborddémarrées de l'exploration du potentiel de chaque situation clinique à part. Le cadrepsychanalytique, le cadre de l'analyse avec les enfants institutionnalisés ou le cadre desconsultations psychanalytiques avec les couples mère-enfant offrent une potentialité spatiotemporelledans laquelle la dynamique relationnelle bénéficie d'un espace et temps desexpressions flottantes et associatives. Ce processus de la libre dynamique des contenus amenéspar les patients et celle des formes dont je les ai reçues et élaborées ces contenus ont représentél'accès à cette expérience d'ici et maintenant qui nous a porté vers ce qui a finalement représentéla solution de sortie de l'impasse et celle de continuer les processus de transformation
The clinical situations we encounter within the classic psychoanalytical setting during thepsychoanalytic sessions bring us, often in foreground, moments when the patients use the settingas a construction tool, a construction that is developed in the negative of the relationship betweenthe patient and the psychoanalyst, as an attempt to recreate the "original shape". These are themoments in which the patient brings within the analytic situation different forms of expression ofthe archaic experiences or of the traumatic potential, forms coming from a space-time nonintegrated,a time that keeps the actuality of his expressions due to an not-enough elaboration ofits contents.I started on the basis of the following hypothesis:The violent appearance of the archaic elements or of the traumatic potential within the analyticsituation is a form of manifestation of the actual, which has not been developed the form of ametaphor, nor the primary form of representation, but an archaic form, inaccessible to thesymbolization process, in a shape similar to the presentation, Darstellung, which aspires to representation,that is to say, to a transformation in a form accessible to the primary developmentalprocesses.. When the archaic experiences and traumatic potential violently penetrate the analytic situationwith archaic realities repeating an actual that is outside of the psychic time of the patients, thosethey want to live and be a Here and Now.6 Each of the cases presented in this thesis represents experiences that first started to explore thepotential of each clinical situation at hand. The psychoanalytic setting, the setting of the analysiswith institutionalized children or the setting of the psychoanalytic consultations with the motherchildcouples, offer a spatiotemporal potentiality in which the relational dynamics benefit from aspace and time in a floating and associative expression. This process of free dynamic contentbrought by patients together with the forms in which I have received and developed such contentopened the access to the experience of the here and now, bringing us to what eventuallyrepresented the solution exit from the impasse and that continue the developing andtransformation process

Montano, Damaris. "Carbonate U-Pb dating via LA-ICPMS : insights into chronostratigraphy in lacustrine settings." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2021. http://www.theses.fr/2021SORUS545.

Full text
Abstract:
Les dépôts lacustres font l'objet d'études approfondies car ils sont propices à l’enregistrement des modifications de nombreux facteurs environnementaux (changement climatique, modification du couvert végétal…), et également car ils renferment des ressources en matière première de toute première importance. Cependant, les reconstructions chronostratigraphiques dans ces contextes sont généralement entravées par la rareté des données permettant d’établir l'âge des dépôts de manière continue. L'objectif principal de ce projet de thèse est d'examiner les avantages et les limites de la datation au carbonate U-Pb (LA-ICPMS) (méthode LAcarb) comme un nouvel outil chronostratigraphique pour les dépôts lacustres. Le deuxième objectif est d'étudier plus précisément le potentiel de datation de la méthode en analysant sa capacité à établir un âge avec résolution temporelle pertinente en fonction des différents types de carbonates et de minéralogies. Pour atteindre ces objectifs, plusieurs phases carbonatées (microbialites, ooides, oncoides) et ciments diagenétiques ont été collectés dans deux exemples lacustres fossiles ayant un âge absolu relativement bien établit: le Miocène du bassin du cratère Ries (SW Allemagne) et la formation Yacoraite (Crétacé-Paléogène) du bassin de Salta (NW de l'Argentine). Une étude sédimentologique et diagenétique s’appuyant sur des analyses pétrographiques et des isotopes stables de l’oxygène (O) de du carbone (C), a permis de sélectionner les phases carbonatées les plus précoces. Ce travail a été réalisé afin de maximiser les chances d’avoir préservé la composition géochimique originelle en U-Pb des fluides en présence lors du dépôt. Dans le bassin du cratère Ries, la méthode LAcarb a fourni des âges précis qui ont permis des corrélations chronostratigraphiques à une résolution temporelle de l’ordre de la séquence stratigraphique du 3e ordre (0,5 à 5 Ma). Dans le cadre de la formation Yacoraite, deux modèles d'âge ont été obtenus le long d'une coupe stratigraphique de référence. L'un est dérivé de la géochronologie des zircons extraits des dépôts de cendre volcaniques intercalés dans la formation Yacoraite (modèle d'âge maximum des dépôts; MDA). Le second est dérivé de la méthode LAcarb (modèle d'âge minimum des dépôts; MIDA). Les deux modèles se superposent remarquablement et permettent de décrire une même dynamique des taux de sédimentation avec une résolution temporelle d'environ 0,9 à 2% (2σ). L'âge des dépôts révisé pour la formation Yacoraite a ensuite été intégré dans un modèle chronostratigraphique combinant les données biostratigraphiques, hemiostratigraphiques et magnétostratigraphiques issues de la littérature. La localisation de la limite Crétacé-Paléogène (KPg) a bien été confortée dans la formation Yacoraite. De plus, la révision des âges de la partie sommitale de la formation Yacoraite a également permis de valider la localisation des deux phases hyperthermiques du Paléocène-Éocène (Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum: PETM, et l’optimum climatique de l’Eocène; EECO) dans les deux formations sus-jacentes. Une analyse statistique a ensuite été réalisée sur la base des âges de 80 phases carbonatées de la formation Yacoraite. Les microbialites ont fourni les plus faibles succès en potentiel de datation (41 % d'âges cohérents avec le modèle MDA) ainsi que les plus basses précisions concernant l'âge (2σ <10 %). A l’inverse, les ciments lacustres ont été couronnés des meilleurs potentiels de datation (64 % d'âges cohérents avec le modèle MDA) avec des âges de meilleure précision. De plus, les phases dominées par la calcite ont généralement fourni des âges plus précis que les phases dolomitiques. Les avancées concernant les potentialités et les limites associées à la méthode LAcarb ont ainsi permis de proposer au travers de cette thèse une méthode complète pour construire un modèle d'âge robuste des dépôts en milieu lacustre. Les perspectives de ces travaux sont multiples, avec par exemple [...]
Lacustrine deposits are extensively investigated because they play a pivotal role as environmental recorders and host valuable economic resources. However, chronostratigraphic reconstructions in these settings are usually hampered by the scarcity of data required to establish the depositional age of the system. The prime objective of this PhD project was examining benefits and limitations of carbonate U-Pb (LA-ICPMS) dating (LAcarb) as new chronostratigraphic tool for lacustrine deposits. The second objective was to investigate the dating potential, in terms of dating success and time resolution, of various carbonate types and mineralogies with the aim to better organize future LAcarb based research. To achieve these goals, depositional (microbialites, ooids, oncoids) and early diagenetic carbonate phases of known absolute age were collected from two lacustrine settings: the Ries Crater basin (Miocene, SW Germany) and the Yacoraite formation (Fm.) from the Salta rift basin (Cretaceous-Paleogene, NW Argentina). A sedimentologic and diagenetic study based on petrography and Oxygen (O) and Carbon (C) stable isotope analysis allowed to select carbonate phases that most possibly preserved the pristine U-Pb geochemical composition and consequently inform on the timing of deposition. In the Ries Crater basin, LAcarb provided accurate ages that allowed chronostratigraphic correlations at a time resolution of the 3rd order stratigraphic sequence (0.5–5Ma). In the framework of the Yacoraite Fm., two depositional age depth model were obtained along a stratigraphic section. One derived from zircon (ash layer) geochronology (maximum depositional age depth model; MDA depth model) and the other from LAcarb (minimum depositional age depth model; MIDA depth model). The two models remarkably overlap and describe the same sedimentation rate dynamic with a time resolution between 0.9 and 2% (2σ). The revised depositional age of the Yacoraite Fm. was then integrated in a chronostratigraphic model merging biostratigraphic, chemostratigraphy and magnetostratigraphy data from literature. Accordingly, the KPg limit was interpreted to be located in the Yacoraite Fm. whereas the two Paleocene-Eocene hyperthermals (Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, PETM; early Eocene Climate Optimum, EECO) were identified in the two overlying formations. A statistical analysis was achieved based on the ages of 80 carbonate phases from the Yacoraite Fm. Microbialites provided the lowest dating success (41% ages consistent with the MDA depth model) and age precision (2σ < 10%) in contrast with lacustrine cements that yielded the highest dating success (64% ages consistent with MDA depth model) and age precision (2σ < 3%). Furthermore, calcitic phases usually provided more precise ages than dolomitic phases. The better comprehension of potentialities and limitations of LAcarb acquired in this PhD allowed to propose a workflow to build a robust depositional age depth model in lacustrine settings. Three possible perspective scenarios were introduced: 1) the study of the Ries Crater basin as analogue of paleolakes on Mars; 2) the use of LAcarb to select pristine carbonates for chronostratigraphic studies; and 3) basin scale chronostratigraphic correlations in the Yacoraite Fm

Abstract:
Dans le contexte socio-économique du début du XXI siècle, l'éducation reste un enjeu sociétal majeur. Dans cette perspective, la question de la formation des enseignants et plus précisément celle de l'accompagnement à l'entrée dans le métier des débutants apparaît centrale. Nous l'interrogeons ici sous l'angle d'une recherche qualitative visant à comprendre dans quelle mesure le dispositif actuel de conseil pédagogique contribue au développement professionnel de professeurs débutants du primaire. Plus précisément, nous étudions, dans le cadre conceptuel de la didactique professionnelle, les cheminements des conclusions formulées au cours d'un entretien-conseil, de leur formulation jusqu'à leur transformation potentielle en compétences professionnelles. Cette recherche, en utilisant des références dans les théories de l'analyse interactionniste du discours et des activités cognitives de raisonnement et de problématisation, étudie de façon longitudinale l'accompagnement dans trois dyades enseignant débutant – conseiller pédagogique sur une année scolaire. Elle permet de mettre au jour, pour notre corpus, des résultats sur : 1) la nature des conclusions formulées lors des entretiens-conseils ; 2) les processus et difficultés qui aboutissent à la formulation des conclusions ; 3) le devenir des conclusions énoncées dans la suite de l'accompagnement ; 4) les conséquences du dispositif de conseil pédagogique dans le développement professionnel des débutants ; 5) les conditions minimales pour que l'accompagnement puisse être une situation potentielle de développement professionnel
In the socio-economic context of the beginning of the 21st century, education remains a major societal issue. In this regard, the matter of teacher training, and more specifically that of supporting novices as they go into the profession, seems central. Here, we approach it from the perspective of a qualitative investigation aiming to understand the extent to which the current system of educational advice contributes to the professional development of novice primary school teachers. More specifically, within the conceptual framework of professional didactics, we study the progress of the conclusions drawn in the course of a counselling interview, from the moment they are drawn until the time they are potentially transformed into professional skills. Using references from the theories of interactionist analysis of speech and cognitive activities of reasoning and problematizing, this research examines longitudinally the way support is provided in three novice teacher – educational adviser dyads over the course of a school year. Within the boundaries of our corpus, it leads to the uncovering of results about : 1) the nature of the conclusions drawn during the course of the counselling interviews ; 2) the processes and difficulties that lead up to the drawing of the conclusions ; 3) the evolution of the conclusions formulated in the following interviews ; 4) the consequences of the system of educational advice on the professional development of novices ; 5) the minimal conditions necessary for the support to be a potential situation of professional development

Abstract:

Currently there is disagreement on the best tools for measuring situation awareness (SA) as well as the nature of the processes that underlie it. The current project examined the intrusiveness of two commonly used techniques, the Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique (SAGAT) and the Situation Present Assessment Method (SPAM), on operator SA, workload, and performance by manipulating the key features distinguishing the techniques—whether displays remain visible and whether scenarios are paused. The results indicated that both factors affect operator SA, workload, and performance. We also found that the intrusiveness associated with blanking displays and not pausing scenarios depended on the type of information being queried. Specifically, making information more difficult to access from external displays had a more negative effect on the ability to answer queries pertaining to specific aircraft as opposed to general sector characteristics. These results support the Situated SA approach, which holds that operators often off-load information to their environment to limit what they must store internally.

Abstract:
I denna kandidatuppsats undersöks berättelsers retoriska funktion i tidningen Situation Sthlm. Huvudsyftet är att undersöka om och i sådana fall hur berättelserna i tidningen bidrar till att uppnå tidningens publicistiska målsättning. I det ingår det underordnade syftet att undersöka om och i sådana fall hur berättelserna bidrar till att skapa identifikation hos läsarna. Materialet består av sex stycken berättelser som är tagna ur olika nummer av tidningen och samtliga berättelser handlar om hemlösa människor som själva är försäljare av tidningen. Uppsatsen bygger på teorier om vad en berättelse är, berättelsers retoriska funktion samt teorier om identifikation. Analyserna är gjorda efter Sonja K. Foss modell för narrativ analys om än i något reviderade version då inte alla analyskategorier som finns med i originalmodellen används i uppsatsen. Uppsatsen visar på att samtliga berättelser har potential att skapa identifikation och att bidra till den publicistiska målsättningen i någon mån men de berättelser som har potential att engagera flest läsare är de som är specifika på flera olika nivåer. Detta uppnås dels genom att ge detaljerade beskrivningar av miljöer och dels genom att karaktärerna skildras på ett mångdimensionellt och nyanserat sätt i kombination med att deras handlingar upplevs som motiverade och begripliga. Även användandet av topiker är centralt för att uppnå det retoriska syftet. Genom att vissa av berättelserna erbjuder läsarna flera olika topiker (mentala mötesplatser) minskar risken att vissa läsargrupper exkluderas.
This Bachelor thesis investigates the rhetorical function of stories published in the Stockholm based street newspaper, Situation Sthlm. The main purpose of the study is to investigate if, and in such a case how, the stories aid in obtaining the goals set by the newspaper with regards to their publishing criteria. A subordinate purpose to that is to investigate if, and in such a case how, the stories aid in creating a sense of identification for the readers. The materials used, include six stories retrieved from several different issues of Situation Sthlm, and in common each story depicts a homeless person who works as a vendor for the street newspaper. The thesis utilizes several different theories aimed at describing the concept of stories, the rhetorical function of stories as well as theories regarding the concept of identification. The model for narrative analysis established by Sonja K. Foss, has been applied for the analyses performed in this study, the model has however been slightly reduced due to the exclusion of certain categories that are included in the original model. It is concluded in this thesis that the six stories analyzed all have the potential of creating a sense of identification for the reader and that they, to an extent, contribute to the newspaper’s publishing criteria. Nevertheless, the stories that have the potential of capturing the largest amount of readers are those that include several different levels of specificity. This is partially achieved through highly detailed descriptions of the milieus in which the story takes place and partially through highly nuanced and multi-dimensional character portrayals in combination with creating an essence of the character’s actions as being well motivated and comprehendible. The usage of topos is also crucial in order to achieve the rhetorical aims in the stories analyzed. By offering an array of topos (fictional meeting places), which was the case for some of the stories, there is a reduced risk of excluding certain categories of readers.

Abstract:
Cognitive reappraisal is an emotion regulation strategy that has been shown effective in down-regulating negative emotions in both psychological and electrophysiological measures. Although there are many studies on cognitive reappraisal, only recently have there been studies differentiating between various ways of employing the strategy. This event-related potential (ERP) study sets out to compare the efficiency and temporal dynamics of three cognitive reappraisal techniques – situation-focused reappraisal, social distancing, and temporal distancing – by measuring their effects on emotional responses to aversive pictures, as indexed by the affective ERP component the late positive potential (LPP). EEG data was recorded from 17 participants. The results revealed no significant differences between emotion regulation strategies and baseline for the total ERP epoch (3,000 ms). When differentiating between early (400-800 ms), mid (800-1,500 ms), and late (1,500-3,000) periods of the epoch, significance was found in some conditions, but since no significant overall LPP activity was found, these numbers are difficult to interpret.

Abstract:
La Riserva Cognitiva è un costrutto teorico elaborato per spiegare le discrepanze tra l’integrità dei tessuti neurali e il funzionamento cognitivo. E’ infatti stato spesso osservato che il rapporto tra danno neurale e manifestazione clinica o funzionale è estremamente variabile. La Riserva Cognitiva spiega questa variabilità in termini di efficienza e flessibilità delle reti neurali: una maggiore adattabilità nell’esecuzione dei compiti cognitivi permette di rispondere meglio ad eventuali danni o invecchiamento cerebrale. Lo sviluppo della Riserva Cognitiva è influenzato sia da fattori innati che dalle esperienze incontrate durante tutto l’arco della vita: principalmente educazione, attività lavorativa, ed attività di svago. Proprio per questa natura “cumulativa” della Riserva Cognitiva, in questa tesi sottolineiamo l’importanza di esplorare i fattori che ne determinano lo sviluppo fin dalla giovinezza. Proponiamo quindi il concetto di Potenziale di Riserva Cognitiva (Cognitive Reserve Potential, CRP), come insieme delle risorse funzionali presenti durante l’adolescenza, prima che le esperienze educative e lavorative siano concluse, o anche solo iniziate. Nel primo dei lavori presentati utilizziamo dati provenienti da uno studio longitudinale di coorte per studiare l’impatto del funzionamento cognitivo giovanile in una prospettiva longitudinale. Modellando curve di crescita latenti, indaghiamo l’associazione tra cambiamento cognitivo in un primo periodo di vita (11-70 anni) e cambiamento in età avanzata (70-82 anni). Mostriamo dunque per la prima volta come le traiettorie di cambiamento cognitivo tra infanzia e tarda età adulta predicano in modo significativo il declino nei 12 anni successivi. Ciò fa luce sulla natura dell'invecchiamento cognitivo e conferisce una rilevanza aggiuntiva alle esperienze precoci, il cui impatto può ripercuotersi su tutto l’arco della vita, fino ad un’età avanzata. L’obiettivo del secondo studio è fare chiarezza sul rapporto tra fattori ambientali, esperienziali e funzionamento cognitivo in adolescenza. In esso, analizziamo il sistema complesso costituito da misure di intelligenza cristallizzata, intelligenza fluida e indicatori relativi a varie dimensioni ambientali: status socio-economico, possedimenti familiari, capitale culturale, e abitudini di lettura. Una network analysis evidenzia come il capitale culturale e le abitudini di lettura siano associati alle abilità verbali indipendentemente dallo status socio-economico e dai possedimenti. I risultati di questo studio confermano l’importanza di adottare una visione più articolata rispetto al solo status socio-economico nella considerazione dei fattori ambientali ed esperienziali in relazione allo sviluppo cognitivo. Per rispondere a quest’esigenza, nello studio 3 ci occupiamo dello sviluppo di un questionario dedicato alla valutazione del Potenziale di Riserva Cognitiva negli adolescenti, il CRPq. Lo strumento misura atteggiamenti e abitudini nell’ambito delle attività di svago, dell’ambiente familiare, delle relazioni coi pari e delle abitudini alimentari. Un’analisi delle componenti principali, confermata da un’analisi fattoriale eseguita su un campione indipendente, mostra che il CRPq misura in maniera affidabile 12 sottoscale, fornendo inoltre un punteggio di CRP globale. Lo strumento ha quindi reso possibile una prima esplorazione delle associazioni tra CRP e misure di intelligenza, funzionamento esecutivo e fattori socio-economici, anch’essa presentata e discussa nell’ambito dello Studio 3. Quello della Riserva Cognitiva nei giovani è un fenomeno complesso, che ha iniziato ad essere studiato solo di recente. Il presente lavoro di tesi rappresenta pertanto un primo approccio. Nelle conclusioni riflettiamo sulle sfide che abbiamo incontrato e sulle possibili prospettive future.
Cognitive Reserve is a theoretical construct elaborated to explain discrepancies between brain integrity and cognitive functioning. Indeed, high interindividual variability has been observed in the relationship between neural damage and its clinical and functional manifestation. Cognitive Reserve explains this variability in terms of efficiency and flexibility of brain processes: greater adaptability in the execution of cognitive tasks grants a better response to brain damage or ageing. The development of Cognitive Reserve is influenced on the one hand by innate factors and on the other by experiences encountered throughout the lifespan: mainly education, work activity, and leisure activities. Because of this "cumulative" nature of Cognitive Reserve, in this dissertation, we emphasise the importance of investigating the factors that determine its development from a young age. Thus, we propose the concept of Cognitive Reserve Potential (CRP) to represent the set of functional resources available during adolescence, before educational and work experiences are concluded or even started. In the first work presented here, we use data from a longitudinal birth cohort study to examine the impact of youth cognitive functioning in a longitudinal perspective. Our analysis relies on latent growth curve models to investigate the association between earlier (11-70 years) and later (70-82 years) cognitive change. We thus show for the first time how trajectories of cognitive change between childhood and late adulthood significantly predict decline over 12 subsequent years. This finding sheds light on the nature of cognitive ageing and lends additional relevance to early life experiences, the impact of which may reverberate across the lifespan into later life. The second study aims to clarify the relationship between environmental and experiential factors and cognitive functioning in adolescence. In it, we analyse the complex system consisting of measures of crystallised intelligence, fluid intelligence, and indicators of several environmental dimensions, namely, socioeconomic status, home possessions, cultural capital, and reading habits. A network analysis shows that cultural capital and reading habits are associated with verbal abilities independently of socioeconomic status and possessions. Thus, this study confirms the importance of taking a more nuanced view than just socioeconomic status when considering environmental and experiential factors in relation to cognitive development. To address this need, in Study 3, we develop a questionnaire dedicated to the assessment of Cognitive Reserve Potential in adolescents, the CRPq. The instrument measures attitudes and habits pertaining to leisure activities, family environment, peer relations and eating habits. A principal component analysis, confirmed by a factor analysis performed on an independent sample, shows that the CRPq reliably measures 12 subscales while also providing a global CRP score. Thus, we could perform an initial exploration of associations between CRP and measures of intelligence, executive functioning, and socioeconomic factors, which was also presented and discussed in Study 3. Cognitive Reserve in youth is a complex phenomenon that has only recently begun to be studied. The present dissertation, therefore, represents an initial approach. In our concluding remarks, we reflect on the challenges encountered so far and on possible future perspectives.

Abstract:
Over the last couple of decades, there has been increased interest in environmentally friendly technologies. One of the renewable energy sources that has experienced huge growth over the years is wind power with the introduction of new wind farms all over the world, and advances in wind power technology that have made this source more efficient. This recognition, together with an increased drive towards ensuring the sustainability of wind energy systems, has led many to forecast the drivers for future performance. This study aims to identify the most sustainable wind turbine design option for future grid electricity within the context of sustainable development. As such, a methodology for sustainability assessment of different wind turbine design options has been developed taking into account environmental, data uncertainty propagation and economic aspects. The environmental impacts have been estimated using life cycle assessment, data uncertainty has been quantified using a hybrid DQI-statistical method, and the economic assessment considered payback times. The methodology has been applied to a 1.5 MW wind turbine for an assessment of the current situation and potential technology improvement opportunities. The results of this research show that overall, the design option with the single-stage/permanent magnet generator is the most sustainable. More specifically, the baseline turbine performs best in terms of embodied carbon and embodied energy savings. On the other hand, the design option with the single-stage/permanent magnet generator performs best in terms of wind farm life cycle environmental impacts and payback time compared to the baseline turbine. With respect to the design options with increased tower height, it is estimated that both designs are the least preferred options given their payback times. Therefore, the choice of the most sustainable design option depends crucially on the importance placed on different sustainability indicators which should be acknowledged in decision making and policy.

Full text
Abstract:
Vehicle management may be considered to consist of traffic management, usage control, maintenance, and security. Various regulatory authorities undertake the first aspect, fleet managers will be concerned with all aspects, and owner-drivers will be interested mainly in maintenance and security. Car theft poses a universal security problem. Personalisation, including navigational assistance, might be achieved as a by-product of an improved management system. Authorities and fleet managers may find smartcards to be key components of an improved system, but owners may feel that the need for improved security does not justify its cost. This thesis seeks to determine whether smartcards may be used to personalise vehicles in order to improve vehicle management within a forseeable time and suggest when it might happen. In the process four broad questions are addressed. • First, what improvements in technology are needed to make any improved scheme using smartcards practicable, and what can be expected in the near future? • Second, what problems and difficulties may impede the development of improved management? • Third, what non-vehicle applications might create an environment in which a viable scheme could emerge? • Finally, is there a perceived need for improved vehicle management? The method involved a literature search, the issue of questionnaires to owner drivers and fleet managers, discussions with fleet managers, the preparation of data-flow and state diagrams, and the construction of a simulation of a possible security approach. The study concludes that although vehicle personalisation is possible- and desirable it is unlikely to occur within the next decade because the environment needed to make it practicable will not emerge until a number of commercial and standardisation problems that obstruct all smartcard applications have been solved.

Abstract:
Die Reaktionsauswahl und die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit sind kapazitätslimitiert. In Doppelaufgaben des Paradigmas der Psychologischen Refraktärperiode (PRP) wird angenommen, dass die Reaktionsauswahlstufen in Aufgabe 1 und Aufgabe 2 sequentiell verarbeitet werden. Für Konjunktionssuchaufgaben wird angenommen, dass die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit Objekte selektiert und Objektmerkmale zusammen bindet, was zu einem seriellen Suchprozess führt. In der vorliegenden Dissertation wurde untersucht, ob die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit (d.h. Merkmalsbindung) demselben zentralen Verarbeitungsengpass wie die Reaktionsauswahl in Doppelaufgaben unterliegt. Sequentielle Verarbeitung von Reaktionsauswahl und visueller Aufmerksamkeit würde Evidenz dafür zeigen, dass beide Prozesse derselben Kapazitätslimitation unterliegen, während parallele Verarbeitung Evidenz dafür zeigen würde, dass beide Prozesse unterschiedlichen Kapazitätslimitationen unterliegen. Um diese Frage zu untersuchen, wurden Reaktionszeitmaße (locus-of-slack Methode), Targetdetektionsmaße (d’) und Ereigniskorrelierte Potentiale (EKPs; N2pc (N2 posterior contralateral)) gemessen. Schwerpunkt aller Analysen war der visuelle Aufmerksamkeitsprozess in einer Konjunktionssuche, die als Aufgabe 2 in Doppelaufgaben implementiert wurde. Aufgabe 1 war stets eine Wahlunterscheidungsaufgabe. Die Verhaltens- und elektrophysiologischen Ergebnisse zeigten, dass die Reaktionsauswahl in Aufgabe 1 und die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit (d.h. Merkmalsbindung) in Aufgabe 2 parallel verarbeitet wurden unabhängig von der Stimulusmodalität in Aufgabe 1, der Schwierigkeit der Reaktionsauswahl in Aufgabe 1 und der Darbietungsform des Stimulusdisplays in Aufgabe 2. Außerdem wurde eine Methode entwickelt, um die Anzahl der Objekte zu berechnen, die parallel zur Reaktionsauswahl verarbeitet wurden. Die Berechnungen stützten die Konklusion, dass die Reaktionsauswahl und die visuelle Aufmerksamkeit unterschiedlichen Kapazitätslimitationen unterliegen.
Response selection and visual attention are limited in capacity. Concerning dual-tasks of the Psychological Refractory Period (PRP) paradigm, it is assumed that response selection of Task 1 and Task 2 are processed sequentially. On the other hand, concerning conjunction search, it is assumed that visual attention selects the items and binds the item features resulting in a serial search process. In the present dissertation I investigated whether visual attention (i.e., feature binding) is subject to the same bottleneck mechanism as response selection in dual-tasks. Sequential processing of response selection and visual attention would provide evidence that both processes rely on a common capacity limitation, whereas concurrent processing would provide evidence that they rely on distinct capacity limitations. Reaction time (RT) measures based on the locus-of-slack method, target detectability measures based on d’, and the event-related potential (ERP) technique to measure the N2pc (N2 posterior contralateral) were combined to investigate this question. Analyses focused on visual attention deployment in a conjunction search task, which was implemented as Task 2 in dual-task situations. Task 1 was a choice discrimination task. Both tasks were presented at variable temporal overlap (Stimulus Onset Asynchrony, SOA). The behavioral and N2pc results showed that response selection in Task 1 and visual attention (i.e., feature binding) in Task 2 operated concurrently irrespective of the stimulus modality in Task 1, the response selection difficulty in Task 1 and the type of presentation of the search display in Task 2. Based on a method that was developed in the present dissertation, it was possible to calculate how many items of the search display were processed in parallel to response selection. The results supported the conclusion that response selection and visual attention rely on distinct capacity limitations.

Abstract:
Syftet med denna studie är att analysera situationer av kunnande i matematik utifrån en specifik undervisningskontext med stora drag av aktiv inlärning. Den är upplagd som en fallstudie och genom observation av klassrumsmiljön samt genom intervjuer av matematikläraren och sju elever i skolår sex analyseras i vilken mån den undervisning som bedrivs kan utnyttjas vid en bedömning som stärker elevernas lärande. Huvudresultatet av studien pekar på att den undervisningskontext som utmärker detta fall, där bedömning till stora delar görs utifrån intuition, inte ger eleverna möjligheten att visa läraren vad de kan, utan snarare vad de inte kan utifrån elevens synvinkel. När prov infördes blev bedömningen mer strukturerad och eleverna fick större möjligheter att visa vad de kan i matematik. Studien visar på nödvändigheten av fortsatt forskning om vad läraren lokalt behöver för att kunna föra en undervisning baserad på aktiva elever som själva får sätta sina mål.

Abstract:
The purpose of this essay is to examine the relation between reproductive rights and overpopulation. The main research question is whether the increase of the population size can affect the moral aspects of the reproductive rights. Relying on, and building upon arguments already developed by a number of philosophers, I show that although some restrictions might be justified, these restrictions cannot completely rule out the basic right to reproduction. Based on this, I then proceed with an overview of the possible solutions. In the subsequent discussion, a one-child-per-couple philosophy stands out as the best option. This would be morally justified according to the initial statements, as well as the most effective alternative when it comes to initiating a significant population decline. The one-child-per-couple philosophy is then contested by several problems that could theoretically arise, but none of these problems are, according to my discussion, strong enough to dispute the positive aspects of the theory. The conclusion of this essay is that we, as a species, have a moral obligation to limit our numbers and that we ought to start acting accordingly.

Full text
Abstract:
Research suggests that individuals in the workplace might have a difficulty sharing their perceptions of risk and challenging unsafe behaviours. This thesis utilises The Theory of Planned Behaviour to examine which factors promote or hinder healthcare workers’ willingness to speak up and confront clinicians’ risky behaviours that could lead to medical error and hence endanger patient safety. The Theory of Planned Behaviour addresses issues surrounding intentions garnered from explicitly measured variables; in addition the thesis further sought to identify attitudes to speaking up using an implicit measure approach, and an approach using a computerbased, scenario-placement, reaction time methodology. Overall, the results of the thesis’s four studies suggest that nurses’ decisions to speak up are influenced by a variety of negative and positive beliefs. These beliefs include the effect speaking up has on the nurse speaking up and the patient; the support and actions of other nurses and medical personnel; and nurses feelings of confidence, knowledge and experience. Nurses also demonstrated a belief that they are more likely to speak up than their peers. Results also suggested that nurses speak up to individuals that they trust and distrust, indicating that trust and distrust are not polar opposites. The findings suggest that if speaking up is to be promoted practitioners need to address nurses’ negative beliefs—this is especially true with regard to fears about speaking up to authority figures. Nurses stated beliefs that they are more likely to speak up than their peers might be a result of presentation-bias or self-bias, if the cause is self-bias then training nurses to be more assertive and challenge risk might be made more difficult by nurses’ collective denial that they have any difficulties speaking up.

Ce travail a pour finalité l’élaboration d’une séquence d’enseignement et d’apprentissage du concept d’énergie potentielle. Une étude didactique, historique et épistémologique de ce concept montre que l’énergie potentielle doit être interprétée comme une énergie latente due à des forces d’interactions qui se développent entre les éléments constituant un système. L’option qui est faite ici est d’introduire le concept d’énergie potentielle à partir de deux types d’activités : des activités qui se rapportent au caractère latent de l’énergie potentielle et des activités relatives à son caractère d’interaction. La séquence a été expérimentée trois fois en deux ans, dans trois classes différentes. Les résultats obtenus sont très intéressants. Nous avons réussie à amener des élèves qui ne pouvaient admettre l’existence d’énergie dans un système inerte, à faire évoluer leur conception progressivement jusqu’à l’accepter

Full text
Abstract:
Connective ties in discourse: Three ERP studies on causal, temporal and concessive connective ties and their influence on language processing.

Questions

In four experiments the influence of lexical connectives such as " darum", therefore, " danach", afterwards, and " trotzdem", nevertheless, on the processing of short two-sentence discourses was examined and compared to the processing of deictical sentential adverbs such as " gestern", yesterday, and " lieber", rather. These latter words do not have the property of signaling a certain discourse relation between two sentences, as connective ties do. Three questions were central to the work:

* Do the processing contrasts found between connective and non-connective elements extend to connective ties and deictical sentential adverbs (experiments 2 and 3)?

* Does the semantic content of the connective ties play the primary role, i.e is the major distinction to be made indeed between connective and non-connective or instead between causal, temporal and concessive?

* When precisely is the information provided by connective ties used? There is some evidence that connective ties can have an immediate influence on the integration of subsequent elements, but the end of the second sentences appears to play an important role as well: experiments 2, 3, and 4.

Conclusions

First of all, the theoretical distinction between connective and non-connective elements does indeed have " cognitive reality" . This has already been shown in previous studies. The present studies do however show, that there is also a difference between one-place discourse elements (deictical sentential adverbs) and two-place discourse elements, namely connective ties, since all experiments examining this contrast found evidence for qualitatively and quantitatively different processing (experiments 1, 2, and 3).

Secondly, the semantic type of the connective ties also plays a role. This was not shown for the LAN, found for all connective ties when compared to non-connective elements, and consequently interpreted as a more abstract reflection of the integration of connective ties. There was also no difference between causal and temporal connective ties before the end of the discourses in experiment 3.

However, the N400 found for incoherent discourses in experiment 2, larger for connective incoherent than non-connective incoherent discourses, as well as the P3b found for concessive connective ties in the comparison between causal and concessive connective ties gave reason to assume that the semantic content of connective ties is made use of in incremental processing, and that the relation signaled by the connective tie is the one that readers attempt to construct.

Concerning when the information provided by connective ties is used, it appears as if connectivity is generally and obligatorily taken at face value. As long as the meaning of a connective tie did not conflict with a preferred canonical discourse relation, there were no differences found for varying connective discourses (experiment 3). However, the fact that concessive connective ties announce the need for a more complex text representation was recognized and made use of immediately (experiment 4). Additionally, a violation of the discourse relation resulted in more difficult semantic integration if a connective tie was present (experiment 2). It is therefore concluded here that connective ties influence processing immediately.

This claim has to be modified somewhat, since the sentence-final elements suggested that connective ties trigger different integration processes than non-connective elements. It seems as if the answer to the question of when connective ties are processed is neither exclusively immediately nor exclusively afterwards, but that both viewpoints are correct. It is suggested here that before the end of a discourse economy plays a central role in that a canonical relation is assumed unless there is evidence to the contrary. A connective tie could have the function of reducing the dimensions evaluated in a discourse to the one signaled by the connective tie. At the end of the discourse the representation is evaluated and verified, and an integrated situation model constructed. Here, the complexity of the different discourse relations that connective ties can signal, is expressed.
Konnektiva im Diskurs: Drei EKP-Studien zu kausalen, temporalen und konzessiven Konnektoren und ihrem Einfluss auf die Sprachverarbeitung.

Einführung und Fragestellung

In vier Experimenten wurde der Einfluss von lexikalischen Konnektiva wie " darum", " danach" und " trotzdem" auf die Verarbeitung von kurzen zweisätzigen Diskursen untersucht und mit der Verarbeitung von deiktischen Satzaderbien wie " gestern" und " lieber" verglichen, die nicht wie die Konnektiva die Eigenschaft haben, die Diskursrelation zwischen zwei Sätzen explizit auszudrücken.

Drei Fragen standen im Mittelpunkt der Arbeit:

* Findet sich der Kontrast zwischen konnektiven und nicht-konnektiven Elementen auch zwischen Konnektiva und deiktischen Satzadverbien wieder (Experimente 2 und 3)?

* Spielt der semantische Inhalt der Konnektiva die primäre Rolle: ist die Hauptunterscheidung zwischen konnektiven und nicht-konnektiven Elementen zu machen, oder zwischen kausalen (darum, deshalb), temporalen (danach, hinterher) und konzessiven (trotzdem, dennoch) Elementen (Experimente 3 / 4)?

* Wann genau wird die Information, die Konnektiva bieten, genutzt? Es gibt Evidenz dafür, dass Konnektiva einen sofortigen Einfluss haben, aber auch dafür, dass das Ende der Texte eine gewichtige Rolle spielt: Experimente 2, 3, und 4.

Konklusionen

Zunächst einmal hat die theoretische Unterscheidung zwischen konnektiven und nicht-konnektiven Worten tatsächlich " kognitive Realität" . Dies wurde bereits in früheren Studien gezeigt. Die aktuellen Experimente zeigten jedoch, dass es auch einen Unterschied zwischen einstelligen (deiktische Satzadverbien) und zweistelligen (Konnektiva) Diskursrelationen gibt, da alle Experimente, die diesen Kontrast untersuchten, qualitativ und quantitativ andere Verarbeitung für Konnektiva zeigten (Experimente 1, 2 und 3).

Zweitens spielt der semantische Typus der Konnektiva ebenfalls eine Rolle. Dieser Einfluss zeigte sich nicht für die LAN, die für alle Konnektiva im Vergleich mit nicht-konnektiven Elementen gefunden wurde, und die dementsprechend auch als Korrelat abstrakterer Integration von Konnektiva vorgeschlagen wird. Es zeigte sich ebenfalls kein Unterschied zwischen kausalen und temporalen Konnektiva vor dem Ende des Diskurses in Experiment 3. Die N400, gefunden für inkohärente Satzpaare in Experiment 2, größer für inkohärent konnektive als inkohärent nicht-konnektive Diskurse, wie auch die P3b, gefunden im Vergleich zwischen kausalen und konzessiven Konnektiva in Experiment 4, lieferten jedoch Grund zu der Annahme, dass die Bedeutung von Konnektiva in der inkrementellen Verarbeitung genutzt wird, und dass die Relation, die Konnektiva signalisieren, diejenige ist, die Leser versuchen zu erstellen.

Im Hinblick auf wann die Information, die Konnektiva liefern, genutzt wird, scheint es, also ob Konnektivität generell und obligatorisch für bare Münze genommen wird. So lange die Bedeutung der Konnektiva nicht mit einer präferierten kanonischen Diskursrelation konfligierte, zeigten sich keine Differenzen innerhalb verschiedener konnektiver Diskurse (Experiment 3), aber die Tatsache, dass konzessive Konnektiva die Notwendigkeit einer komplexeren Textrepräsentation voraussagen, wurde sofort erkannt und genutzt (Experiment 4). Zusätzlich resultierte eine Verletzung der Diskursrelation in Experiment 2 in erschwerterer semantischer Integration, wenn ein Konnektivum vorhanden war. Es wird daher gefolgert, dass Konnektiva die Verarbeitung sofort beeinflussen.

Diese Schlussfolgerung muss jedoch etwas abgeschwächt werden, da die satzfinalen Elemente darauf hinwiesen, dass Konnektiva andere Integrationsprozesse am Ende der Diskurse auslösten als nicht-konnektive Elemente. Es scheint, dass die Antwort auf die Frage, wann Konnektiva verarbeitet werden, weder sofort noch hinterher ist, sondern dass beide Sichtweisen korrekt sind. Es wird hier vorgeschlagen, dass vor dem Ende eines Diskurses Ökonomie insofern eine entscheidende Rolle spielt, als eine kanonische Relation angenommen wird so lange es keine gegenteilige Evidenz gibt. Ein Konnektivum könnte die evaluierten Dimensionen in einem Diskurs auf die signalisierten reduzieren. Am Ende des Diskurses wird die erstellte Textrepräsentation evaluiert und verifiziert, und ein integriertes Situationsmodell erstellt. Hier drückt sich dann die Komplexität der verschiedenen Diskursrelationen, die Konnktiva signalisieren können, aus.

Abstract:
Cette thèse examine le processus de mobilisation pour des étudiants en formation professionnelle et ses relations avec la constitution des buts de leur activité et les caractéristiques des dispositifs et des situations de formation rencontrées. Pour cela, nous adoptons une approche par l'activité des étudiants en situation de formation afin de nous démarquer des approches de la " motivation " développées par la psychologie et des approches en termes de " rapport au savoir " développées en sociologie. Nous nous appuyons sur le cadre théorique de l'activité élaboré par Rubinstein (2007) pour développer le concept de mobilisation proposé initialement par Charlot, Bautier et Rochex (1992). Nous avons réalisé un recueil de données de type ethnographique et longitudinal auprès de trois classes d'étudiants inscrits dans une formation de Brevet de Technicien Supérieur en Agroalimentaire dans trois établissements différents. Notre analyse se déroule en trois temps : * caractérisation des environnements, dispositifs et situations de formation rencontrés par les étudiants des trois établissements ; * approche statistique de l'état de mobilisation pour les différentes situations de formation ; * monographies longitudinales concernant quatre étudiants. Nous montrons que l'état de mobilisation pour une classe de situations est préfiguré par quelques situations passées, présentes et projetées pour chaque individu. Mais cet état s'actualise en fonction des caractéristiques des situations rencontrées, dont certaines jouent un rôle important : cohérence des finalités de la situation avec la finalité professionnelle affichée par la formation ; contenus abordés en tant que savoirs outils (Douady, 1983) pour l'action en situation professionnelle ; tâches appelant à déployer des actes de création réelle (Rubinstein, 2007) ; ... Les étudiants sont mobilisés pour des situations par lesquelles leur personnalité se réalise dans et par les actions déployées : elle se constitue et se donne à voir à l'individu et aux autres. Ces situations sont au fondement de la constitution de buts stables pour leur activité et d'un itinéraire de toute une vie pour l'individu. Les étudiants n'ont pas de meilleurs résultats scolaires pour les situations de formation pour lesquelles ils sont mobilisés. Les étudiants sont démobilisés lorsque leur activité est morcelée et ne parvient plus à réguler les actions au regard de leurs buts, des caractéristiques de leur personnalité et des conditions et exigences des situations. Leurs résultats scolaires sont inférieurs à leurs résultats moyens pour les situations où ils sont démobilisés. En conclusion nous proposons des développements pour la théorie de l'activité élaborée par Rubinstein et pour le cadre théorique de la didactique professionnelle. Nos résultats permettent de développer ceux présentés par Rochex dans son ouvrage " Le sens de l'expérience scolaire " (1995). Ils nous amènent à proposer des pistes de réflexion pour penser les questions de l'alternance, de l'orientation et du décrochage scolaire en formation professionnelle.

Abstract:
The study is a quantitative analysis into the selection process of the Masters in Business Administration (MBA) programme at the Tshwane University Technology (TUT). The selection battery used at TUT to select the MBA applicants is comprised of the Situation Specific Evaluation Expert (SpEEx), the English Literacy Skills Assessment (ELSA), and the 15 Factor Questionnaire (15FQ+). This test battery aims to obtain information on an applicant with regards to his/her cognitive potential (verbal and non-verbal ability), language proficiency, and personality. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between the selection battery and the academic performance of those students selected into the MBA programme at TUT by examining the differences between the scores of the psychometric selection batteries and the academic performance of those students selected. Upon analyses and interpretation of the data it was determined that there were no statistically significant differences between the scores of the different components of the selection batteries used and the academic performance of those selected.

Abstract:
Cette thèse a voulu mettre en regard les clivages entre culture instituée transmise par l’École, et culture(s) intime(s) des personnes (candidates à la VAE) en cause dans la recherche, dont son auteure. Cette mise en regard est nourrie par un but : montrer dans quelle mesure le travail d’écriture sur la pratique, à la fois individuel et collectif, permet-il d’articuler la singularité des sujets, des trajectoires, des expériences, des situations et des activités, à la généralisation du discours institutionnel relié aux procédures normées du dispositif VAE. Mais ce travail d’écriture permet-il aussi de construire des savoirs à partir de l’expérience, objet et source de développement, et de faire progresser langage et processus de pensée ? Notre troisième question : comment ce travail d’écriture à partir de l’analyse collaborative de la pratique conduit-il à faire se rencontrer l’enquête de la vie courante et l’enquête scientifique, dans l’effort partagé pour organiser l’expérience par sa reformulation, sa théorisation et son objectivation ? Trois hypothèses majeures, en lien étroit avec la théorie développé par Lev Vygotski sur le développement des fonctions psychiques supérieures, ont conduit la recherche : les interactions langagières produites lors d’un accompagnement en ZDP, dans une dynamique heuristique, éthique et collaborative, développeraient en synergie, des échanges inter et intra-psychiques ; ces interactions langagières favoriseraient les processus de conceptualisation, de réflexivité, d’internalisation, de langage intérieur et de positionnement de soi en tant qu’auteure de sa parole ; ces interactions transformeraient alors les rapports au monde, à autrui, au savoir et à l’écrit des scripteurs, ainsi que leur reconnaissance identitaire en tant qu’individu, et en tant que professionnel
This thesis wanted to put on the opposite between established culture, transmitted by School, and private culture, the VAE candidates’ concerned by this research, as well as the author’s. This putting on the opposite is fed by a purpose: to show to what extent the individual and collective work of writing on practical, allows to articulate first the peculiarity of the subjects, the trajectories, the experiences, the situations and the activities, with the generalization of the institutional speech linked with the standardized procedures of the device VAE ? In a second time does this work of writing allows to build knowledges from the experience, object and source of development, and to make progress language and process of thought? Our third question: how does this work of writing from the analysis collaborative of the practice, lead to make the investigation of the common life meet the scientific investigation, in a shared effort to organize the experience by its reformulation, its theorization and its objectification? Three major hypotheses, in narrow link with the theory built by Lev Vygotski on the psychic development of the superior functions, led the research: the linguistic interactions produced during a support in development area potential , in a heuristic, ethic and collaborative dynamic, would develop in synergy, exchanges inter and intra-psychic ; these linguistic interactions would help the processes of conceptualization, reflexivity of insourcing, inner language and positioning of itself as author of his word; these interactions would transform then, relations to the world, to others, to the knowledge and to their writings, as well as being recognized in their individual and professional identity

Relatório de Trabalho de Projeto apresentado para cumprimento dos requisitos necessários à obtenção do grau de Mestre em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica
A escassez de órgãos para transplante trata-se de uma problemática atual. O número de pessoas em lista de espera por um órgão é elevado e o número de dadores revela-se insuficiente para as necessidades. O enfermeiro pela sua proximidade à pessoa e família na prestação de cuidados, ocupa uma posição privilegiada na identificação de potenciais dadores. Estes cuidados requerem conhecimentos e competências (técnicas, humanas, éticas e legais) para as quais deve estar desperto. O presente relatório pretende refletir o percurso vivenciado para o desenvolvimento e consolidação dos mesmos. Para a sua concretização, foram realizados estágios em locais e instituições de referência na doação e transplantação. Este relatório demonstra o processo de aquisição de Competências Comuns e Especificas de Enfermeiro Especialista em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica e de Mestre, com vista à sua apresentação e discussão pública para a obtenção do Grau de Mestre em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica. Foram desenvolvidos 2 projetos: - de Intervenção em Serviço (PIS) e - de Aprendizagem Clínica (PAC), no âmbito do 4º Curso de Mestrado em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica da Escola Superior de Saúde do Instituto Politécnico de Setúbal. O PIS foi desenvolvido na Urgência Geral Polivalente (UGP) do Hospital X, no âmbito da pessoa em situação neurocrítica, de acordo com a Metodologia de Trabalho de Projeto. O objetivo foi capacitar os enfermeiros para a importância da deteção e prestação de cuidados precoces a estas pessoas, em contexto de urgência, de forma global e norteada, pelo que se optou por uma formação virada para a identificação/referenciação de potenciais dadores, o diagnóstico, a avaliação, os cuidados na manutenção e a abordagem da família/pessoa significativa com vista ao transplante com sucesso. Para além da pesquisa bibliográfica, recorreu-se ao referencial teórico da Transição de Afaf Meleis, uma teoria de médio alcance. O PAC teve como objetivo refletir criticamente a prática desenvolvida à luz das Competências Comuns e Especificas do Enfermeiro Especialista em Enfermagem em 7 Pessoa em Situação Crítica e Crónica e Paliativa e analisar as aprendizagens, refletindo acerca de um conjunto de competências de índole mais diferenciado - Competências de Mestre em Enfermagem Médico-Cirúrgica e que pressupõe um entendimento mais profundo da pessoa. Foram igualmente elaboradas instruções de trabalho que visam melhorar a prática através da sua aplicação. Os ganhos obtidos com os estágios originaram saberes e conhecimentos específicos que foram partilhados e permitiram mudanças positivas na equipa multidisciplinar através de sessões formativas que permitiram debate de ideias, esclarecimento de dúvidas e uma prática mais sustentada e apoiada num procedimento setorial reformulado.
The shortage of organs for transplantation is an actual problem. The number of people on the waiting list is high and the number of donors proves is insufficient for the demand. Nurses due to the proximity to the person and family during care, occupie a privileged position at the identification of potential donors. Nurses should be aware that such care requires knowledge and skills (techniques, human, ethical and legal). In this way, this report intends to reflect the experience for the development and consolidation of them. For that, we made internships in leading institutions for donation and transplantation area. The present report reflects the path in the process of acquisition of Common and Specifics Skills during the internship of Nurse Specialization in Medical-Surgical Nursing in internship, to its presentation and public discussion, with the aim of obtaining the degree of Master´s Course in Medical-Surgical Nursing. In this period is noteworthy of mention the two projects developed: Attendance Intervention Project and Clinic Learning Project under the 4th Master’s Course in Medical-Surgical Nursing, College of Health Polytechnic Institute of Setúbal School. The Attendance Intervention Project was developed in a hospital’s emergency department, under the scope of Neurocritic Person situation by applying the work project methodology. The objective was to train nurses to the importance of detecting and providing early care, global and guided way, to a potential organ/tissue donor in the emergency department, so we opted for a training based on the identification / referral of potential donors, diagnosis, assessment, care and maintenance in the approach to family / significant person for a successful transplant. In addition to the bibliographic research, we used the theoretical framework Transition Afaf Meleis, a Theory of medium range. The objective of Clinic Learning Project was to reflect critically about common skills of the Specialist Nurse and Specific Skills of the Specialist Nurse in Critic and Chronic/Palliative Care, and analyze the learning, reflecting on a set of more differentiated nature of skills - Master Skills in Medical-Surgical Nursing and which requires a deeper understanding of the person. They were also working instructions aimed at improving practice through its application. 9 The gains we had from the internships originated specific knowledge and expertise that were shared, enabling positive changes in the multidisciplinary team through training sessions that allowed discussion of ideas, clarifying doubts and a more sustained practice and supported a sectoral recast procedure.

Abstract:
In the tourism industry local and regional food holds great potential as a contributor to sustainable competitiveness at a destination. However, from an analysis of the literature and promotional material of South African and key international destinations, there is an indication that the contribution of food to sustainable tourism and the marketing of destinations has received very little attention globally as well as in South Africa. A framework and guidelines for developing and implementing food tourism could enable destination marketers and entrepreneurs to optimise the tourism potential of local and regional food. To this end a Strategic Food Tourism Destination Marketing Framework was conceptualised and was based on the findings of a South African situation analysis and international trends and best practices. The South African situation analysis entailed an empirical investigation into food tourism, a key component of destination marketing in South Africa, to determine its current status, future potential and initiatives. Regional and provincial destination marketing organisations were involved in the research process To support the Strategic Food Tourism Destination Marketing Framework, two key tools were developed, namely FOODPAT (a tourism and culinary atlas linked to a geospatial database) and a Product Potential and Attractiveness Tool. The framework and tools were tested in a South African destination, the Winelands of the Western Cape. Its application revealed that the stakeholder users were successfully provided with mechanisms to develop and implement food tourism. This study presents the key components and gives an evaluation of the framework and tools that were developed. Guidelines and recommendations for the development, packaging and marketing of local and regional foods are postulated. Proposals for future research are put forward.

Abstract:
Land allocation for development has a significant link with various forms of environmental impact. Consequently, environmental implications of development need to be appraised through mechanisms provided by effective planning systems. An integrated approach to land-use planning and environmental management is the central theme in this research. The thesis discusses land-use planning systems and environmental management, and the question of linking EIA to such systems, with a view to supporting the argument that integration could contribute to better environmental outcomes. The thesis sets the context by reference to other countries, particularly the United States and Britain. Under the planning system, ETA has been used in Britain to lessen pollution. The discussion moves to the concept and practice of ETA, and to Australian land-use planning and environmental management at State and local levels. Attention is focused on recent efforts in favour of more integrated approaches. Sustainable development is also addressed because of its imperative to consider development and environment cohesively, and because it is increasingly determining new frameworks for planning and environmental management. Within this context, integrated planning ideas are applied to analyse the new consolidated planning system in Tasmania. The finding of the study is that Tasmania's planning framework is well-designed, and a promising initiative towards achieving sustainability. However, planning mechanisms could be strengthened further by extending the requirement for the inclusion of environmental management tools, such as ETA and environmental audits (EA). Environmental management mechanisms like ETA and EA, and associated tools such as state of environment reporting, can play a significant role alongside land-use planning to achieve sustainable development. Suggestions for improvement and the future development of Tasmania's integrated planning system are proposed to conclude the study.

The campus violence and juvenile deviant behavior were deteriorating in recent years, especially for students in the senior and vocational high schools. This study aims to investigate the potential factors associated with these behaviors among different family situations, and hope that the result can help provide appropriate counseling guidance for parents, teachers or schools’ administrators.   This study was based on the students from the senior and vocational high school students in Taiwan collected by the Taiwan Education Panel Survey. The factor analysis was used to determine the three different aspects for measuring deviant behavior and associated factors, and the factor loadings were used to compute the scores. The two independent sample t-test, ANOVA, correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were implemented to understand the association between different deviant aspects and potential factors. In particular, the multiple imputation was used to impute the variables that have high missing proportion.   The study shows that whether the students live with both parents affects the association of student’s external deviant behavior and internal deviant behavior significantly with other factors. Factors that are statistically significantly associated with all deviant behavior aspects include gender, living stress, influence from peers and relationship between teachers and students. For students who live with parents, the three deviant behavior aspects are also statistically associated with the school type, physiological confusion and campus environment.   The ways to decrease deviant behavior for students from senior and vocational high school students are following. Students shall seek professional assistance when they are under living stress or who are victims of campus violence. Furthermore, students shall develop positive self-worth cognition and proper leisure habits. Parents should strive to maintain the integrity of the family and try to participate in their schools’ activities, so that their children can feel their concern and support positively. At the same time, parents should pay more attention to their children's friends, and encourage them to maintain an appropriate relationship among their friends and to keep distance from friends who have deviant behaviors. Schools’ administrators and teachers shall initiate some proper contact and cooperate with parents frequently to prevent students having deviant behavior and also dedicate their time to develop harmonious, safe and friendly campuses to reduce campus violence.

Summaries in German and English
The Geneva model of discourse analysis is a linguistic tool developed by Eddy Roulet and his team in Geneva. It was first presented in its modular approach in 1999. This dissertation examines whether the Geneva model can be applied to New Testament texts and whether this application yields results for exegesis. I first explain the model with its five basic modules and twelve organization forms, giving examples from German texts as well as simple New Testament examples. Then I apply the model to two New Testament texts (Rom 6:1,11 and John 8:31,42), summarizing the results in relation to exegesis at the end of each analysis. In the final chapter I discuss which parts of the Geneva model should generally be applied to New Testament exegesis, explaining its potential and its limitations and suggesting some areas in which the Geneva model could be complemented by other approaches.
Das Genfer Modell ist ein von Eddy Roulet und seinem Team in Genf entwickelter linguistischer Ansatz zur Diskursanalyse. Er wurde 1999 erstmalig in seiner modularen Auspragung vorgestellt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird untersucht, ob dieses Modell auf neutestamentliche Texte angewendet werden kann und ob diese Anwendung einen Ertrag fur die Exegese bringt. Ich erlautere dazu das Modell mit seinen funf Grundmodulen und zwolf Modulverbindungen zunachst an deutschen und einfachen neutestamentlichen Beispielen. Sodann wende ich das Modell auf zwei neutestamentliche Texte an (Rom 6:1-11 und Joh 8:31-42). Am Ende jeder Anwendung fasse ich die Ergebnisse fur die Exegese dieser Texte zusammen. Im Schlusskapitel schliesslich erortere ich, welche Teile des Modells in der Exegese mit Gewinn eingesetzt werden konnen, wo Nutzen und Grenzen seiner Anwendung liegen und in welchen Bereichen das Modell durch andere Ansatze sinnvoll erganzt werden kann.

Abstract:
Σκοπός της παρούσης έρευνας είναι η μελέτη της συνεισφοράς που μπορεί να έχει η διδασκαλία μέσω επίλυσης προβλήματος στην κατανόηση των ανισώσεων και στην ανάπτυξη της ικανότητας μοντελοποίησης από μαθητές της Β΄ Γυμνασίου. Σχεδιάστηκε ένα οιονεί πείραμα που αφορούσε τη διαφοροποιημένη διδασκαλία του κεφαλαίου των ανισώσεων σε δύο τμήματα 17 μαθητών (πειραματική ομάδα και ομάδα ελέγχου). Αξιολογήθηκαν η κατάκτηση του γνωστικού αντικειμένου και η ικανότητα μοντελοποίησης-επίλυσης μιας κατάστασης-προβλήματος μέσω γραπτής δοκιμασίας, ενώ διενεργήθηκαν και συνεντεύξεις. Παράλληλα σκοπός μας ήταν η διερεύνηση της ικανότητας μοντελοποίησης-επίλυσης μιας κατάστασης-προβλήματος ενός ευρύτερου δείγματος μαθητών Β΄ Γυμνασίου, σχολείων αγροτικής, ημιαστικής και αστικής περιοχής. Πραγματοποιήθηκε επισκόπηση σε ένα δείγμα 39, 48 και 53 μαθητών αντίστοιχα, οι οποίοι κλήθηκαν να αντιμετωπίσουν γραπτώς μια κατάσταση-πρόβλημα, ενώ επίσης διενεργήθηκαν συνεντεύξεις. Από την ποσοτική και ποιοτική ανάλυση των αποτελεσμάτων προκύπτει ότι οι μαθητές μεσαίας επίδοσης είναι αυτοί που κυρίως επωφελήθηκαν από την διδασκαλία μέσω επίλυσης προβλήματος. Επιβεβαιώθηκε η διάκριση τεσσάρων επιπέδων ανάπτυξης στην ικανότητα δόμησης και χρήσης μαθηματικών μοντέλων από μέρους των μαθητών, ενώ κατέστησαν εμφανείς οι μεγάλες δυσκολίες που αντιμετωπίζουν οι τελευταίοι στην ανωτέρω διαδικασία.
The purpose of this research is to study the contribution of teaching through problem solving, in understanding inequalities and in the development of modeling capacity by students of the 2nd high school. A quasi-experiment was designed on differentiated instruction of inequalities in two classes of 17 students (experimental and control group). The achievement of the knowledge object and the ability to resolve a problem situation through mathematical modeling, were assessed by means of a written test and interviews. At the same time, our aim was to investigate the modeling capacity of a larger sample of 2nd high school students, of rural, suburban and urban schools. A survey was carried out in a sample of 39, 48 and 53 students respectively, who were invited to address a problem situation in writing, while interviews were also conducted. The quantitative and qualitative analysis of the results shows that medium performance students were the ones who largely benefited from the “teaching through problem solving” approach. The identification of four levels in the development of constructing and using mathematical models was confirmed, while became apparent major problems faced by the students in the above process.
