Abstract:

This thesis contributes to the literature on the Howard Government's mutual obligation policy by investigating the perspectives of those who are subject to it: specifically, those required to undertake Work for the Dole. To date, research on participants' perspectives has been limited to a few predominantly quantitative studies, most of which have been commissioned or conducted by government departments. This study provides a more qualitative and independent perspective on participants' experiences and their views about their rights and obligations as unemployed people. It considers the extent to which these experiences and views are consistent with or conflict with the rationales for mutual obligation. The study included a survey of 87 participants in nine Melbourne and Geelong-based Work for the Dole projects conducted in 1999, eight focus groups conducted with 59 of these participants, and 37 in-depth interviews conducted with a new sample of Work for the Dole participants in 2002. Unemployed participants in the study had a strongly positive orientation towards work and many had substantial experience of employment. They viewed work as necessary to fulfil human capacities and needs, and often believed that they should work for their own well-being, as much as to contribute to society. Far from expressing any distinctive values of a 'dependency culture', participants appeared to share many of the work values of the wider community. However, many also had substantial experience of unemployment and faced significant barriers to gaining ongoing work. This thesis provides evidence that Work for the Dole provides short-term benefits for many such unemployed people: most study participants enjoyed taking part in the program and felt that they gained benefits from participating. They clearly endorsed some kind of work placement and skill development programs for the unemployed. Given the Howard Government's abolition of a range of previous programs of this type, Work for the Dole is now the only such program available for many participants and was often preferred to doing no program at all. However, more than four in ten survey participants did not enjoy doing the program overall, and a fifth actively disliked taking part. Further, the program's impact on employment prospects appeared to be either negligible or negative-which was not surprising given the scheme's focus on the unemployed discharging their 'obligations to the community' and 2 overcoming a 'psychology of dependency', rather than on job outcomes for participants. However, this thesis argues that there is very limited value in a program which provides benefits at the time of participation but does not help in achieving the main aim of the unemployed: gaining work. The study analyses the Howard Government's three central rationales for the mutual obligation policy: that it ensures that participants fulfil the requirements of the 'social contract' by requiring them to 'contribute to the community' (the contractualist claim), that it deters the unemployed from being 'too selective' about jobs (the 'job snob' claim), and that it benefits participants by developing their capacity for autonomy and self-reliance (the new paternalist claim). These three rationales are assessed in the light of participants' responses. With regard to the contractualist claim, the study finds that most participants shared the widespread community belief that only 'genuine' jobseekers deserve unemployment payments, but many did not share the community's support for the requirement to work for payments. While a third of survey participants supported this requirement, almost half opposed it. Most believed the government was not fulfilling its obligations to the unemployed to provide appropriate employment and training opportunities which were relevant to the jobs they were seeking. Many viewed the mutual obligation 'contract' as a one-way set of directives imposed on them and believed that the breaching regime which enforced these directives was unreasonably punitive and unfairly administered. With regard to the 'job snob' claim, study participants largely rejected an expectation that they should be required to accept any job, and most had substantial concerns about the specific form of the job search regime. They did not agree that 'any job is better than no job' and objected to the pressure under mutual obligation arrangements to apply for jobs which they considered inappropriate. They were not willing to be forced into jobs in which they feared they would be unhappy and which they were likely to soon leave; rather, they wanted assistance to help them to find sustainable work. Finally, with regard to the 'new paternalist' claim, many participants believed that compelling recipients to undertake certain activities or to apply for unsuitable jobs unreasonably restricted their freedom of choice, undermining rather than increasing their autonomy. As argued by Yeatman (2000b), recipients may benefit from a program, or from a case manager who assists 3 them to develop their capacities, but compulsion to undertake activities that are not related to individual needs and goals is likely to undermine capacity-building. The evidence of poor employment outcomes from Work for the Dole adds further weight to this view. The provision of a greater range of program types in place of Work for the Dole-including those which combine work with accredited training and those providing subsidised placement in mainstream jobs-would address many concerns held by participants in this study. However, compulsion to participate in a labour market program would remain problematic in a society which generates far fewer jobs than are needed for full employment. The thesis concludes that the mutual obligation principle privileges the obligations of the unemployed over their rights to autonomy and to work. Its associated requirements have further added to the already considerable constraints faced by unemployed people who are attempting to identify and meet their own work-related goals. Ironically, a policy which is portrayed by the Government as promoting active participation in society, in reality requires many payment recipients to passively obey government directives-instead of actively participating in shaping their own future.

Abstract:

Den tidigare forskning som finns kring barn som utsätter barn för våld är begränsad och det saknas forskning kring hur dessa barn stöttas upp av socialtjänsten. Studiens syfte är därför att undersöka hur socialsekreterare uppmärksammar och arbetar med barn som utsatt barn för våld. Detta undersöks genom en kvalitativ forskningsmetod där det empiriska materialet inhämtas genom tio strukturerade intervjuer med socialsekreterare. Studiens resultat presenteras genom en tematisk analys och analyseras med hjälp av Bourdieus perspektiv. Senare diskuteras resultatet i relation till tidigare forskning. De främsta slutsatser som dras från resultatet är att barns våld mot barn inte alltid uppmärksammas och att socialsekreterares bedömningar av barn som utsatt barn för våld påverkas av faktorer som ålder, kön, allvarlighetsgrad i brottet samt socioekonomi. I resultatet framgår att socialtjänsten har ett flertal insatser att tillgå, men att utbudet av dessa varierar mellan kommuner och vissa socialsekreterare upplever därför en brist i insatser. Risk- och skyddsfaktorer som uppmärksammas extra mycket är närmiljön som omfattar familj, skola och umgänge.
Previous research on children exposing children to violence is limited and there is no research on how these children are being supported by social services. The purpose of the study is therefore to examine how social workers pay attention to and work with children who have exposed children to violence. This is conducted through a qualitative research method, in which the empirical material is obtained through ten structured interviews with social workers. The studys’ result is presented through a thematic analysis and analyzed with help of Bourdieus’ perspective. Later on, the result is being discussed in relation to previous research. The main conclusions drawn from the result are that violence between children are not always noticed and the social workers’ assessments of children who has exposed children to violence are affected by factors such as age, gender, severity of crime and socioeconomics. The result shows that the social services have a number of interventions available, but the range of these vary between municipalities and some social workers therefore experience a lack of interventions. Risk and protective factors that are given extra attention are the immediate environment that conclude family, school and social life.

Abstract:

After being a dominant decorated ware in the northern Southwest for centuries, Cibola White Ware ceased to be produced in the Grasshopper region of Arizona within a single generation, sometime between A.D. 1300--1325. The demise of Cibola White Ware and the increase in locally-produced Roosevelt and Grasshopper red wares coincided with the transition to full dependence on agriculture in this region. This study draws on feminist theory, theories of technological change, and an extremely robust archaeological record to construct an explanatory model of this ceramic transition by exploring one critical feature of the context in which it occurred: the labor of Grasshopper women. The model proposes that Roosevelt and Grasshopper red ware pottery were less labor-intensive than Cibola White Ware pottery to produce and that their adoption was related to women's scheduling constraints associated with the rapid transition to agriculture.

Abstract:

The original Project report has been written to serve a number of aims and audiences. Obviously, its immediate aim was to serve as a record of the Project itself and through the evaluation of its successes and learning help further projects work in Central Asia particularly and overseas generally. Linked to this, a further aim was to develop discussion and debate amongst colleagues in the communities of practice of both management development and work-based learning. Finally, in the wider sense, it will hold some value to other such groups with an historical interest in the transition of Post Soviet states. (Co mm) This commentary together with the processes of presentation, and Project report and the appendices that include papers and reports from the Project itself form the total submission for the final stage of the award of Doctor of Professional Studies. This paper specifically looks to augment crucial areas of understanding and development not fully developed in the Project report itself particularly in relation to knowledge management and work-based learning. In addition this paper has also been structured to satisfy explicitly all the descriptors for level 5 particularly' by the inclusion of a small section on personal development. An Appendix has been added to support this suggesting, by chapter, where examples of descriptor practice exist in the original report. (Appendix One)

Abstract:

The workplace is an arena that most individuals spend time at. Work-related stress and psychosomatic complaints are problems for the society. Work-related stress has increased in Sweden over the past decades. The aim was to investigate the difference between men and women in work-related stress and psychosomatic complaints among working adults in the Swedish population, and to see if there is a relationship between work-related stress and psychosomatic complaints. The author posted an online survey on Facebook and Discord and 95 adults answered the survey. The result showed that there is a relationship between work-related stress and psychosomatic complaints. Psychosomatic complaints are more common among those who experience more work-related stress. There were no differences between men and women when it comes to work-related stress and psychosomatic complaints. The model Job demand control support model was used in this study. The model is measured with scales such as workload, time pressure and role conflicts. It can be used to see the relationship between job decision latitude and stress indicators. Psychosomatic complaints are more common among those who experience more stress. There are no differences between men and women when it comes to psychosomatic complaints and work-related stress.

Abstract:

In the past three years, the number of breach penalties applied by Centrelink to welfare recipients have more than trebled, with some 349,000 incidences reported for the 2000-2001 year. This Masters Degree research study examines the lived experience of some individuals who have been breached by Centrelink, to ascertain whether their lived experiences accord with the stated policy expectations and intent of the Howard Government. Government policy statements are identified from the literature, as are a range of alternative viewpoints and critiques offered by commentators. A qualitative research survey instrument was developed. Survey data was collected from people passing on the footpath outside three Brisbane Centrelink offices. Fifty-six individuals who stated they had been breached at least once responded. The results of primary and secondary analysis of the collected data is presented in the findings, followed by discussion as to how the lived experiences of the unemployed respondents matched Government expectation and intent

Abstract:

Our study was a qualitative study in the gender mainstreaming work within Entebbe municipal council, Uganda. This thesis was funded by SIDA through a Minor Field Studies scholarship. The main focus was internal communication, particularly implementations of governmental policies. During eight weeks, we worked at the municipal council in Entebbe to investigate how the implementation of the local gender policy had been since its conduction in 2008. Our study worked on the theoretical frame of reference in the areas of organization, communication and project management. Our empirical data were gathered through conversations with citizens of Entebbe municipality, interviews with stakeholders and heads of departments of Entebbe municipal council, and observations of municipal programs and internal meetings. The purpose was to develop a communication plan, but the result of our research became a study to identify Entebbe municipal council’s current position in the implementation phase and to propose methods to oblige and fulfill the local gender policy’s objectives and requirements. The study showed that they didn’t need another steering document but increased presence of and communication about the local gender policy for the entire municipal council to contribute to a more gender equal organization.

Abstract:

The topic of this thesis pertains to how female characters are portrayed in the American period drama TV series Mad Men (2007–2015) that is set in the 1960s, and the main focus is on Margaret ‘Peggy’ Olson, who works as a copywriter at the fictional advertising agency Sterling Cooper. This thesis focuses on three main themes through which Peggy Olson’s journey in Mad Men are analyzed: appearance, obstacles in the workplace and sexual behavior in the workplace. The purpose of this research is to analyze such obstacles and forms of discrimination that women face in the workplace, and apply them to the context of Peggy Olson’s fictional career in Mad Men. Another main purpose of this thesis is to study the TV series in closer detail and to find out what is said about women and how these things are said — since Mad Men is a successful series, it is important to study what kind of image it portrays of women in order to understand its popularity and cultural significance. Mad Men is a topic that has been analyzed in several studies, but another purpose for conducting this thesis was to specifically analyze it from a work-based point of view since very few exist. The data that was used when conducting this paper consists of the series’ seven seasons, in DVD format. The theoretical background consists of different fields of research, and each section has their own theoretical background. In this thesis, the theoretical background consists of historical information about working women in the 1960s, television studies, and, most prominently, studies related to sexual harassment, gender-based obstacles and discrimination in the workplace. I have also utilized studies about appearance and relationships in the workplace. The conclusion of my analysis indicates that women in Mad Men often are discriminated against in the workplace due to the gender, women are expected to be attractive in order to please men, and that sexual harassment is rampant throughout the series. Despite this, Peggy Olson is able to defy these obstacles, have a successful career, and gain respect
Tämä työ käsittelee naispuolisten fiktiivisten hahmojen kuvausta amerikkalaisessa 1960-luvuun sijoittuvassa draamasarjassa Mad Men (2007–2015), ja tutkielmani painopisteenä ovat pääosin sarjan naishahmon Peggy Olsonin kokemukset mainostekstien laatijana. Tutkielmani keskittyy kolmeen pääteemaan, jotka liittyvät Margaretin kohtaamiin vaikeuksiin työelämässä. Nämä kolme teemaa ovat: ulkonäkö, esteet työelämässä ja seksuaalinen häirintä. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on analysoida sellaisia esteitä ja syrjinnän muotoja, joita naiset kohtaavat työelämässä, ja tutkia miten nämä teemat esiintyvät Peggyn fiktiivisen uran aikana Mad Menissä. Toinen tarkoitus on analysoida sarjaa tarkemmin ja tutkia millaisen kuvan Mad Men antaa naisista ja miten asia ilmaistaan, jotta voimme ymmärtää sen suosion ja kulttuurisen merkityksen. Mad Men-sarjaa on tutkittu ja analysoitu useasti aiemmin, mutta tämän tutkimuksen tarkoituksena on tutkia, miten naisten tekemä työ on kuvattu sarjassa, sillä tällaisia tutkimuksia on harvassa. Tämän tutkielman materiaali koostuu sarjan seitsemästä kaudesta, jotka on julkaistu DVD:nä. Tutkimuksessa käytetty teoria koostuu eri alan tutkimuksista, ja joka teemalle on omat aiheeseen sopivat tutkimukset. Tutkielmani materiaali koostuu tutkimuksista, jotka kuvaavat ajan naisten työelämää ja 1960-luvun ajankuvaa, televisiotutkimuksista, ja ennen kaikkea seksuaaliseen häirintään, naisten työelämän esteisiin sekä ulkonäköön ja suhteisiin keskittyviä tutkimuksia. Tutkimukseni johtopäätös on, että sarjan naisia syrjitään sukupuolen takia, ulkonäkö on naisten tärkein ominaisuus, ja seksuaalinen häirintä on jatkuva ongelma. Peggy pystyy kuitenkin selviämään näistä esteistä, ja saa lopulta osakseen kunnioitusta ja menestyksekkään uran

Abstract:

This study focuses on stress management of educators, and specifically in the KwaZulu–Natal geographical region. The study consists of four focus areas (which are presented in article format), namely: * The first article identifies the role–players and their functions in delivering quality education to all South Africans. The article identifies the role–players from literature research and discusses their influences on the South African educational environment. A biographical profile of the educators of the KwaZulu–Natal area is compiled in the article by means of empirical research. * The second article employs both theoretical and empirical research to focus on the causes of stress to educators in public schools. In addition to identifying the causes of stress, the article also determines how stress impacts on the work performance of educators in KwaZulu–Natal. * The third article reports on management and leadership qualities of a school, and how guidance can assist in the transformation process. The study further examines the effects of a principal's leadership behaviour on the school's learning culture in KwaZulu–Natal. * This final article is a comparative study. It provides an overview of similarly focussed studies by Jackson (2004), Jackson and Rothman (2006) and Van Wyk (2006) with regard to the causes of stress among educators (but in different application settings namely the North West and Free State provinces). The focus in the final article is to determine if the stressors and its influences in education are generic throughout South Africa, or localised to KwaZulu–Natal. The research design consisted of selecting four districts randomly from the twelve in KwaZulu–Natal. From these districts, a total of 1 500 participants were randomly selected from the total population of 2 123 educators in the four districts. This amounted to a sample of 70.6% of the population). A total of 358 respondents completed the questionnaires resulting in a response rate of 23.3%. The study employed the statistical software programme SPSS 17.0 for Windows to analyse the data. A number of quantitative statistical techniques befitting the doctoral level of research were used to analyse the data. These techniques are: * Kaiser–Meyer–Olkin (KMO) measure of sampling adequacy; * Bartlett's test of sphericity; * Exploratory factor analysis; * Cronbach Alpha's reliability coefficient; and * Pearson's correlation coefficient. The major findings of the study were that: * Three major role–players are identified in the first article, namely the educators, the Department of Education and the learners. To effectively facilitate quality education, management is a crucial component, whilst these role–players are also influenced by the macro environment. * The second article identified causes of stress. These causes account for a favourable 71.6% of the variance explained, and are: organisational support, overload, remuneration, control, job insecurity, job opportunities and growth opportunities. * The third article identified seven factors of importance in management and leadership. These factors explained a favourable 78.6% variance and are: Management and leadership styles, financial security, management and leadership fairness, stressors, empowerment, job security and sense of control over the work environment. * In the final article it is clear that the stressors are generic to South Africa. The majority of stressors have been identified by studies in the Free State, North West and in this study in KwaZulu–Natal. These stressors are organisational support, overload, growth opportunities / task characteristics, rewards and remuneration, and job insecurity. The ultimate recommendation of the study is because stress impacts negatively on the educators and their performance, a national strategy is partly required to improve educator stress as there are a number of common stressors in the three separate studies. Yet, further research is needed to substantiate the prevalence of these factors in all the provinces. A provincial approach is recommended for province specific stressors, while the national strategy could address the common stressors in conjunction with a provincial stress relieve programme. The study culminates in a final perceptual map of stressors, it causes and educator management that could handsomely assist in the drafting of such a national stress strategy for educators.

Full text

Abstract:

Née d'un château comtal vers l'an 1000, Dôle obtint ses franchises en 1274. Elle suivit alors le sort du comte, cédé par Otton IV au roi Philippe le Bel, pour son fils. Si, comme tout l'occident, la peste et la guerre la meurtrirent, l'accession au comte de Marguerite de France, en 1361, et le mariage de sa nièce avec Philippe le Hardi, en 1369, en réorientèrent le destin. Alors que la province se réorganise Dôle devient le centre de l'importante trésorerie du bailliage d'aval, et le parlement s'y réunit régulièrement dès 1377. Philippe le Hardi et plus encore Philippe le Bon, en firent la capitale de la comté : en 1422 la ville est le centre d'un nouveau bailliage, puis en 1423 le siège de l'université des deux bourgognes. Alors s'y constitue une élite urbaine autour des hommes de loi et des hommes de finance, dont les plus éminents sont issus des familles Vurry, Carondelet, Basan, Chassey, Toubin, et quelques autres. Les chantiers urbains d'initiative princières - halles, boucherie, bâtiment du parlement - révèlent le monde de l'artisanat, tandis que les grands marchands (Fremy, Gyot, Du Champ. . . ), amodiataires des revenus seigneuriaux (tabellionage, prévôté, moulins et fours, péage, boucherie. . . ), acteurs du commerce, constituent avec les hommes de loi un groupe ascendant, acquérant noblesse et seigneuries. Le chapitre de Notre-Dame, fond2 par le prince en 1304, domine la familiarité des prêtres, et anime la seule paroisse de la ville; tandis que le couvent des cordeliers, dans le sillage de Sainte Colette, joue un rôle actif au sein de l'observance. Assiégée et saccagée par les armées de Louis XI en mai 1479, Dôle parvint sous Charles VIII, grâce à son corps de ville aide par Guillaume de Rochefort, à recouvrer sa fonction de capitale. La reconstruction était en bonne voie lors de la conclusion du traite de Senlis, en 1493
Born from the castle of an earl circa 1000, Dôle obtained her liberties in 1274. She had then the fate of the county, granted by Otton IV to Philip the fair for his son. If as well as in the whole western Europe, she suffered from plague and war, both the coming to the county of marguerite of France in 1361, and her niece's wedding to Philip the bold in 1369, altered her fate. As the province got organized, dole became the heart of an important treasury and the parliament convened there on regular sessions from 1377 on. Philip the bold and even more Philip the good, turned it into the main town of the county, in 1422 the town was the center of a new bailiwick, then in 1423 the seat where there was the university of both burgundies. Then an urban elite formed around lawyers and financial men of whom the best known were from the families Vurry, Carondelet, Basan, Chassey, Toubin, and some others. The urban sites issuing from the prince's wille - halls, butchers' hall, parliament house let appear the world of handicraft, whereas the huge merchants (Fremy, Gyot, Du Champ. . . ), tax-farmers of bannal revenues (scrivening, provostship, mills, bake-houses, toll, butcher's hall. . . ), trade's actors, made up together with lawyers a merging group acquiring nobility and seigneuries. The chapter of Notre-Dame, established by the prince in 1304, ruled over the community of priests, and animated the only parish of the town, whereas the Franciscan friars' convent, in the track of St Colette, played a big part in the bosom of observance. Besieged and sacked by louis xi armies, in may 1479, Dôle achieved under Charles VIII, by the action of her town council, supported by Guillaume of Rochefort, the status of a chief town. Her rebuilding was well under way, when the Senlis treaty was signed in 1493

Abstract:

Wise investments in Information Technology have become increasingly important in staying competitive in today's environment. Massive amounts of people and IT-systems are involved in the process of input becoming output. As these employees and IT-systems must be harmonized, it becomes relevant to study how employees’ routines and habits are related to the usage and embeddedness of these systems. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to investigate how embedded IT can lead to improved business processes. This is done through exploring how embedded IT is used in workflows as well as to examine what support and hindrance IT can offer. Therefore, extensive theoretical research was conducted within the fields of habits and routines, business processes and embedded IT, developing a framework for analysis. Then, a case study was conducted where a specific process within insurance claims was thoroughly analyzed through interviews and work shadowing. This facilitated a within-case analysis. The results of the study showed the interdependency between the pillars of this study. Workflow habits and routines influences IT usage, whereas IT aims to support through automatization and informatization. However, to enable this and achieve a significant improvement, the processes it aims to support needs to be fully known.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis explores a number of interdisciplinary writings on the Italian past by later nineteenth- and early twentieth-century artistically minded critics and cultural commentators, with a view to recovering their historiographical importance. Beginning with an exploration of the parameters and scope of a genre defined as 'aesthetic history', along with some theoretical work grounded in current debates about the nature of historical representation, this thesis goes on to offer in-depth discussion of texts on the Italian past by John Ruskin, Walter Pater, Vernon Lee, Henry James, D. H. Lawrence and Adrian Stokes. By offering a critical reconstruction of each author's thinking about the past, along with the cogent and ill-explored engagements they make with historiographical study, this thesis affords the reader a better understanding of some of the tensions present in historical writing - tensions surrounding issues of epistemology, visuality, psychology and materiality - during what were decades of great change in historical thinking. Moreover, this thesis offers a detailed investigation into the important role played by the Italian past in the aesthetic-historical canon, which in turn produces a more complicated picture of the connections between literature, aesthetics and historiography during this period.

Abstract:

Power to the Profession is focused on equitably advancing an effective, diverse, and well-compensated early childhood education profession across states and settings. Our children live in an increasingly diverse world, and they both need and benefit from a workforce that reflects and embodies that world. As such, when our current systems cause harm to educators, they can also harm children and their families. The inverse is also true: when our systems help educators, we help children and their families. We know that higher education plays a critical role, with many opportunities to support the workforce. If we are going to see our vision through and reimagine what could be, we have to take stock of the progress we have made, identify missed opportunities and barriers, and develop an action plan. Our panel will share perspectives and experiences from different parts of the higher education system and discuss key issues including equity, compensation, pathways, leadership, and financing, and will share recommendations for an aligned system designed to support early childhood educators.

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to find out if Chilean pedagogues feel sufficiently prepared to work with and around bi- and multilinguistic children. The two questions that are answered in this thesis are Do the pedagogues feel like they have enough theoretical and practical knowledge about bi- and multilingualism? In that case, how and why? How do their personal experiences and feelings towards bi- and multilingualism affect their professional work? In order to answer the purpose of this thesis a qualitative study is conducted using semi-structured interviews as a method. The results show that the pedagogue have a positive look on bi-and multilingualism. Both when it comes to themselves as well as the children. This affects their work in a positive way since they feel that being bi- and/or multilingual is important. These feelings and thoughts make the pedagogues positive and motivated about working with these children. The pedagogues mention practical knowledges that they have such as singing, counting, telling stories etcetera. But when it comes to their theoretical knowledge none of the interviewed pedagogues have read about bi- or multilingualism. Therefore none of the pedagogues mention any specific theoretical ways in which they work with or around bi- and multilingualism. But what they do have thoughts about is that they feel that it is important to encourage bi- and multilingual children and their language development. And that they will find ways to work with these children even if their theoretical and sometimes practical knowledge might be lacking.

Abstract:

In this advanced level essay Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is discussed within a Swedish Sports setting and the purpose is to better understand why children and adolescents with ADHD in Sweden drop out of sports clubs at an earlier than average age. This study is based on an interpretive view of knowledge and has a qualitative method. Through interviews with various experts of ADHD and other neurodevelopmental disorders the study aims at understanding the reasoning of children with ADHD as they navigate the complex cultural and institutional environments found in sports. Erving Goffman's theories about stigma are utilized in the study to further understand the relationships between youth with ADHD and coaches, other parents and peers in sports. ADHD is often stigmatized in social interactions in sport and the power that coaches, and other “normal” people have over the youth with ADHD can be considered a key to understanding why ADHD is stigmatized and why so many drop out at an early age.

Full text

Abstract:

De 1598 à 1668, cent trente-cinq officiers ont appartenu au parlement de Dole, cour souveraine aux attributions étendues, tant politiques que judiciaires. Ils se répartissaient entre quatre groupes quasi étanches, le groupe semi-honorifique, celui des présidents et conseillers ordinaires et ceux du parquet et du greffe. Leur carrière, courte en général, quinze ans moyenne, variait selon l'époque et la fonction. Celle-ci était largement conditionnée par les antécédents professionnels des officiers qui étaient recrutés majoritairement chez les officiers du roi et les avocats, avec une préférence pour les plus haut gradés et les plus expérimentes. L'origine familiale était également importante. La majorité des officiers de la cour étaient issus du monde parlementaire ou de la noblesse. Pour accéder au parlement, les familles de "robin" tissaient tout un réseau d'alliances dans le milieu parlementaire. Le mariage était ainsi au cœur de la stratégie des familles de robe. Les hommes le contractaient entre vingt-cinq et vingt-six ans avec des femmes jeunes d'environ vingt et un ans. C'est la raison pour laquelle l'intervalle proto-génésique était long bien que l'intervalle inter génésique fut court. Le nombre et la survie des enfants de parlementaire étaient à peine supérieurs a la moyenne du siècle. Leur éducation était comparable à celle des jeunes aristocrates occidentaux. La fortune des parlementaires dolois ne peut être connue que d'une façon qualitative.

Abstract:

Det finns faktorer på arbetet som påverkar yrkesverksamma till att bli mer eller mindre stressade. Socialt arbete inom socialtjänsten präglas ofta av en hög arbetsbelastning, höga krav, orealistiska förväntningar och i allmänhet ett komplext arbete. Det är något som påverkar hur den enskilda socialarbetaren upplever stress. Studiens syfte är att undersöka risk- och skyddsfaktorer för yrkesrelaterad stress hos socialarbetare samt deras copingstrategier vid stress. Den valda metoden för studien är kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer med fyra socialarbetare inom socialtjänsten. Intervjuerna analyserades tematiskt med studiens tre centrala teman som huvudfokus: riskfaktorer, skyddsfaktorer och copingstrategier för stress. De teoretiska utgångspunkterna för studien är fenomenologi, Karasek och Theorells (1990) krav, kontroll och stöd modell samt teoretiska begrepp såsom yrkesrelaterad stress, risk- och skyddsfaktorer samt copingstrategier. Studiens resultat pekar på att socialarbetarna inte upplevde stress i stor omfattning, men kopplade stress främst till hög arbetsbelastning. Vi diskuterar om tillgången till socialt stöd och upplevelsen av kontroll kan ha agerat som en "buffert" mot yrkesrelaterad stress. Studien påvisar även att socialarbetarna växelvist använde olika copingstrategier för att hantera stress på arbetsplatsen.
There are factors at work that affect professionals to be more or less stressed. Social work in social services is often characterized by a high workload, demands, unrealistic expectations and in general a complex work. Which affects how the individual social worker experience stress. The study aims to examine the risk and protective factors for occupational stress among social workers and their coping strategies for stress. The method chosen for the study is qualitative semi-structured interviews with four social workers in social services. The interviews were analyzed thematically with the study's three central themes as the main focus: risk factors, protective factors and coping strategies for stress. The theoretical starting points for the study is phenomenology, Karasek and Theorell (1990) demand, control and support model and theoretical concepts such as occupational stress, risk and protective factors and coping strategies. The study results indicate that the social workers did not experience stress in large quantities, but related stress mainly to high workload. We discuss that the availability of social support and the experience of control may have acted as a "buffer" against occupational stress. The study also shows that social workers alternately used different coping strategies for managing stress in the workplace.

Abstract:

During recent years the stigmatised phenomenon of menstruation has received increased attention, revealing various challenges faced by menstruating women and girls. The prevalence of these have shown to be particularly profound in low- and middle-income countries. Despite an enhanced understanding of how menstruators may be affected by having their periods the focus within the growing body of literature on Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) remains narrow, often focusing solely on the practical aspects of MHM, whilst failing to acknowledge the social dimensions of menstruating. Women who work have been notably overlooked within the existing research, which almost exclusively has targeted schoolgirls. This study aims to widen the understanding of MHM, entailing both social and practical aspects. It also seeks to shed light on the experiences of working women, as a previously neglected group. To investigate how menstruation may affect women within their working environment, a field study with respondent interviews was conducted in Accra, Ghana. The narratives of the respondents, consisting of women working within the informal sector at markets, disclosed challenges that relate both to the social and practical aspects of MHM. The results point to the continued need for including working women in the research on MHM. It also demonstrates how practical and social aspects overlap and thus needs to be linked to gain a full understanding of menstruation and how it affects the menstruator.

Abstract:

Syftet med den här studien är att söka förstå varför pojkars betyg är lägre än flickors relativt de resultat som uppmätts på nationella prov. Vidare är ambitionen att redogöra för vad elever anser att denna skillnad beror på genom att lyfta fram elevers uppfattningar till och tankar om pojkars underprestation. Denna studie redogör för forskning om pojkars, i relation till flickors, generella underprestation i skolan. Initialt redogörs för forskning som beskriver skillnader mellan pojkars och flickors inställning till, prestation i, måluppfyllelse och erhållna betyg i skolan för att sedan följas upp med och jämföras mot elevers synpunkter och tankar kring fenomenet. Detta är en kvalitativ studie där två pojkar och två flickor intervjuats med syfte att ta del av elevers perspektiv i frågan. Det framkommer att elever i denna studie är väl medvetna om könsskillnader i prestation, ansträngning och förhållningssätt till lärare och skolprestation men eleverna uppfattar även att det finns dolda system som de anser påverkar bilden och bedömningen av eleven. Eleverna menar att flickor anpassar sig till dessa system medan pojkar, generellt sett, inte vill eller kan anpassa sig till normer och värden lärare är bärare av. Studiens resultat pekar också på att det finns sociala vinster för pojkarna i och med att man inte följer dessa normer och värden. Slutligen förs en diskussion om det är så skolans genussystem skulle kunna tänkas ha en negativ inverkan på pojkars skolprestation.

Abstract:

O presente trabalho se propõe a discutir sobre um projeto de desenvolvimento territorial que seja endógeno ao município de Pelotas e, por esta razão, em contraponto às propostas, programas e projetos que visam a geração de empregos a partir do crescimento econômico que são, ambos, hegemônicos e, sobretudo, exógenos tanto ao território quanto ao perfil particular dos pelotenses. Esta discussão procura apontar para um caminho que conduza o trabalhador – a partir do seu trabalho – a gerar tanto a riqueza material quanto a sua própria autonomia (econômica, social, cultural e política), pois se objetiva que a atividade produtiva do doce, tal qual estamos propondo, lhe possibilite o exercício da cidadania. Para tanto, a primeira parte é formada pelo debate entre dois dos cinco candidatos às eleições municipais de 2012 (à prefeitura de Pelotas – RS/Brasil), pois, nela fizemos um diálogo com as propostas de centrodireita do DEM versus as da esquerda do PSOL, sobre o caminho a ser seguido por Pelotas para sanar a “estagnação” econômica do município, que perdura desde a década de 1980 (aprofundada com a entrada do país na Globalização). Então, é neste sentido que discutimos a crise do emprego em Pelotas. Isto é, do artesanal-rural à cidade dos alimentos do passado áureo – que, somados, representam o ápice da geração em quantidade de empregos em Pelotas – ao conceito de Indicação Geográfica da Terra do Doce: que parte das tendências contraditórias do fordismo versus as do sistema flexível até sua relação com o cenário cooperativo e autônomo da Economia Solidária que, segundo apontam nossos resultados, indicam-se como sendo a tendência à vanguarda no âmbito da relação de geração, ao mesmo tempo, de riqueza social e autonomia ao trabalhador, de forma sustentável; logo, objetivando – a partir da Geografia – apontar caminhos que levam ao emprego do século XXI, em Pelotas, para os pelotenses do passado e do presente, mas de forma que eles sejam os atores locais deste desenvolvimento endógeno do seu território cidadão.
The present work proposes to deliberate about a project of territorial development that is endogenous to the municipality of Pelotas and, for that reason, in counterpoint to the proposals, programs and projects that aim to generate jobs parting from the economic growth that are both hegemonic and, most of all, exogenous to the territory as well as to the particular profile of the inhabitants of Pelotas. This discussion intends to point to a path which conducts the worker – parting from his work – to generate either the material wealth as well as his own (economic, social, cultural and political) autonomy, thus it objectivizes that the productive activity of the sweet, in the way we are proposing, facilitates him the exercise of citizenship. For this, the first part is formed by the debate between two of the five candidates to the 2012 municipal elections (to the City Hall of Pelotas – RS/Brazil), thus in it we create a dialogue with the DEM´s mid-right proposals versus the left ones of PSOL, about the way to be followed by Pelotas to aid the municipality economic “stagnation” which perdures since the 1980´s decade (deepened by the entry of the country in the Globalization). So, it is in that sense that we discuss the job crisis in Pelotas. Viz, from the rural-artisan to the city of aliments of the golden past – which, added up, represent the apex of the jobs generating in quantity in Pelotas – to the concept of The Land of the Sweet Geographical Indication: which part from the contradictories tendencies of Fordism versus the ones of the flexible system until its relation with the cooperative and autonomous scenario of Solidary Economy which, as our results show, has been indicated as being the trend to the vanguard in the ambit of the relation on generating social wealth and the worker autonomy at the same time, in a sustainable way; thus objectivizing – parting from the Geography - to point paths that take to the employment of the XXI century in Pelotas, for the past and present inhabitants of Pelotas, however, in a way that they are the local actors of this endogenous development of their citizenship territory.

Guided inquiry is a teaching practice gaining popularity in the college setting, particularly within STEM classes, although it is a strategy that can be used across a broad spectrum of disciplines. Increasingly, courses are being offered online (asynchronously), which can present challenges for instructors seeking to help students become intellectually engaged, reaching deeper understandings of course concepts and the relationships among them. Guided inquiry may be one tool instructors can use to encourage students’ deeper exploration of course material. The purpose of this practice session is to explore how guided inquiry can be applied in an online setting, with discussion regarding its benefits and challenges.

Most manufacturing companies are run with the purpose of making money. The profit can be created in two ways. On one hand through the difference between the earnings and the expense and on the other hand through the number of products that are sold within a certain time period. As demand increases a company can ramp up their production but this can come at a loss of the need to do big investments through machines, production lines, personnel and buildings which increases the risk of lowering the profit per product. Kabe, in Tenhult, is today producing two different kinds of RVs, on the one hand semi- integrated which are basically a house of the back of a truck and on the other hand fully integrated where you build a vehicle on top of an empty chassis. The big difference in the amount of work needed in assembling has led to Kabe deciding to separate the two different kinds of RVs in their own assembly lines in the RV factory. To be able to fit these lines in the building the manufacturing of certain big components, that is roofs, walls and floors, have been moved to a separate building and the work then commenced in trying to balance the assembly lines. Kabe is growing in their field and is expected to have an increase in sales in the coming years but the manufacturing of big components, which is now located in the component factory, has fallen behind when it comes to capacity evaluation leading to Kabe not knowing if the component factory is going to be able to keep up when the production speed is increased. To get a number on the potential capacity in the component factory a work sampling study is performed where different non-value adding activities are identified. These are eventually supposed to be eliminated or, in the case of them being necessary but non-value adding activities, reduced. A 5 Whys-analysis is performed with input from operators and leaders to be able to identify the root causes of the different activities and different suggestions of action are then presented as a guide towards the right direction to be able to uncover this “hidden” capacity. The result of the work sampling study suggests that the component factory is utilized to about 50 % at the moment which gives it a potential capacity of almost double of today’s capacity. Underlying causes for this primarily depend on the milling machine, imbalance between different serial stations, problems with operator planning due to the everchanging demand from the customer on the assembly lines as well as that the company has put in more resources and done changes without documenting or planning the effects that this will have on the company in the long run but there are possible solutions to all of this.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Occupational exposure to wood dust and biohazards associated with wood dust (endotoxins, (1->3)-b-D-glucans, Gram (-)ve bacteria and fungi), their correlation to respiratory function, and symptoms among woodworkers have been investigated in the present study. Wood dust, endotoxins, and allergenic fungi are the main hazards found in woodworking environments. Relatively very few studies have been done on wood dust exposure. The present study was designed to comprehensively investigate the health effects of wood dust exposure, and in particular provide new information regarding: Exposure to (1->3)-b-D-glucans in an occupational environment; Levels of exposure to wood dust and biohazards associated with wood dust in different woodworking environments; Correlations among personal exposures, especially correlations between (1->3)-b-D-glucans and fungi exposures, and endotoxins and Gram (-)ve bacteria exposures; Effects of personal exposure to biohazards on lung function; Effects of personal exposure to biohazards on work-related symptoms; and Determinants of inhalable exposures (provide which factors in the environment influence the personal inhalable exposures). Workers at four different woodworking processes; two logging sites, four sawmills, one major woodchipping operation and five joineries situated in the state of New South Wales in Australia were studied for personal exposure to inhalable dust (n=182) and respirable dust (n=81), fungi (n=120), Gram (-)ve bacteria (n=120), inhalable endotoxin (n=160), respirable endotoxin (n=79), inhalable (1->3)-b-D-glucan (n=105), and respirable (1->3)-b-D-glucan (n=62). The workers (n=168) were also tested for lung function. A questionnaire study (n=195) was carried out to determine the prevalence of work-related symptoms. The geometric mean inhalable exposure at logging sites was 0.56 mg/m3 (n=7), sawmills 1.59 mg/m3 (n=93), the woodchipping mill 1.86 mg/m3 (n=9) and joineries 3.68 mg/m3 (n=66). Overall, sixty two percent of the exposures exceeded the current standards. Among joineries, 95% of the hardwood exposures and 35% of the softwood exposures were above the relevant standards. Compared with green mills, the percentage of samples, which exceeded the hardwood standard was high for dry mills (70% in dry mills, 50% in green mills). The respirable dust exposures were high at the joineries compared with the other worksites. Exposure levels to fungi at logging sites and sawmills were in the range 103-104 cfu/m3, woodchipping 103-105 cfu/m3 and joineries 102-104 cfu/m3. The predominant fungi found at sawmills were Penicillium spp. High exposure levels of Aureobasidium pullulans were also found at two sawmills. At the woodchipping mill the predominant species were Aspergillus fumigatus, Penicillium spp., and Paecilomyces spp. The sawmills, which employed kiln drying processes, had lower exposure levels of fungi compared with the green mills. Those workplaces which had efficient dust control systems showed less exposure to fungi and bacteria. Although mean endotoxin levels were lower than the suggested threshold value of 20 ng/m3, some personal exposures at sawmills and joineries exceeded the threshold limit value. The mean inhalable (1->3)-b-D-glucan level at the woodchipping mill was 2.32 ng/m3, at sawmills 1.37 ng/m3, at logging sites 2.02 ng/m3, and at joineries 0.43 ng/m3. For the respirable size fraction, mean endotoxin and mean (1->3)-b-D-glucan concentrations were much lower, being similar to observed dust concentrations. Significant correlations were found between mean inhalable endotoxin and Gram (-)ve bacteria levels (p<0.0001), and mean airborne inhalable (1->3)-b-D-glucan and fungi levels (p=0.0003). The correlations between mean respirable endotoxin levels vs Gram (-)ve bacteria exposure levels (p=0.005), and respirable (1->3)-b-D-glucan exposure levels vs total fungi levels (p=0.005) were also significant. Significant correlations were found between lung function and personal exposures. Multivariate analyses showed that the effect of all the personal exposures on cross-shift decrements in lung function was more prominent among sawmill and chip mill workers compared with joinery workers. Woodworkers had markedly high prevalence of cough, phlegm, chronic bronchitis, frequent headaches, throat and eye irritations, and nasal symptoms compared with controls. Among the woodworkers, smokers had a high prevalence of chronic bronchitis (20%) compared with non-smokers (10%). Some workers also reported a variety of allergy problems due to exposure to various types of wood dust. Both joinery workers and sawmill and chip mill workers revealed significant correlations between work-related symptoms and personal exposures. Chronic bronchitis was significantly correlated with personal exposure to wood dust, endotoxin, (1->3)-b-D-glucan, fungi, and Gram (-)ve bacteria among joinery workers. Whereas among sawmill workers chronic bronchitis was significantly correlated with personal exposure to endotoxin, (1->3)-b-D-glucan, and fungi. Woodworkers showed significant positive correlations between percentage cross-shift change (decrease) in lung function and respiratory symptoms. Significant inverse correlations were also found among percentage predicted lung function and respiratory symptoms. The elevated inhalable dust exposures observed in this study can be explained by a combination of factors, including: lack of awareness of potential health effects of wood dust exposure among both management and workers, aging equipment, inadequate and ineffective dust extraction systems or usually none especially for hand held tools, poor maintenance of the ventilation system in some, non-segregation of dusty processes, dry sweeping, and the use of compressed air jets. The determinant-of-exposure analysis confirmed the field observations. The significant determinants of personal inhalable dust exposures (n=163) were found to be: local exhaust ventilation, job title, use of hand-held tools, cleaning method used, use of compressed air, and green or dry wood processed. Type of wood processed was not found to be statistically significant. A majority of workers (~90%) did not wear appropriate respirators approved for wood dust, while the workers who did wear them, used them on average less than 50% of the time. Workers should be protected by controlling dust at its source. When exposure to wood dust cannot be avoided, engineering controls should be supplemented with the use of appropriate personal protective equipment.

Abstract:

This exploratory study aimed to discover the current contribution of Educational Psychologists to special schools catering for children and young people (CYP) with profound and multiple learning difficulties (PMLD) from the perspective of educational psychologists (EPs) and special school staff. A systematic literature review highlighted that no research has been carried out in this area. It did however highlight other areas of research previously undertaken in regards to CYP with PMLD and research which had captured the views of educational psychologists and (special) school staff. The research was carried out in light of the recognition that an increasing number of CYP with PMLD are entering specialist provision and an identified role for EPs in working with children who have severe, complex or challenging needs. The researcher created an online survey which was distributed to 146 Educational Psychology Service across England in addition to independent and private EPs. The survey was also sent to 288 special schools across England, identified as catering for CYP with PMLD. A number of 207 responses were received from EPs and 44 from special school staff. The quantitative data was analysed using descriptive statistics and the qualitative data was analysed using quantitative and qualitative content analysis. Important findings regarding the current contribution EPs are making to these specialist settings was highlighted in addition to potential barriers and opportunities to practice. The impact of this on future EP practice and research implications are also discussed.

Abstract:

Excerpt: The recent study by Sahlas et al1 in the Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases concluded that “the estimation of a patient's weight in the acute setting can lead to overcalculation of the tissue plasminogen activator dose, which is associated with poorer functional outcomes.” However, this conclusion is not well supported by their study1 because the most severe ischemic stroke cases were the ones that were most likely not weighed, and this severity could have led to the increased mortality that was found2 and the majority of unweighed patients were actually given an underdose that was associated with better discharge outcomes, as explained below.

Darbo objektas – kariūnų blauzdą tiesiančių ir lenkiančių raumenų funkcinių ypatybių nustatymas ir palyginimas metų eigoje. Tikslas – nustatyti, kaip pasikeičia kariūnų blauzdos raumenų funkcinės ypatybės per 6 mėnesių trukmės fizinio rengimo ciklą. Uždaviniai: 1. Nustatyti blauzdą tiesiančių ir lenkiančių raumenų susitraukimo vidutinį galingumą, maksimalią jėgą, susitraukimo kampą, nuovargį ir atsigavimo kaitą. 2. Palyginti blauzdos raumenų nuovargio ir atsigavimo skirtumą, tarp pirmojo ir antrojo testavimo, esant dinaminiam raumens susitraukimui. Hipotezė - manome, kad atliekant antrąjį testavimą kariūnai po 6 mėn. studijų turi būti fiziškai pajėgesni, labiau turi pasireikšti blauzdą tiesiančių ir lenkiančių raumenų nuovargis ir atsigavimas. Išvados: 1. Abiejų testavimų metu blauzdą tiesiančių ir lenkiančių raumenų susitraukimo vidutinė galia krūvio metu sumažėjo, o praėjus 5 min. po krūvio atsigavo. 2. Blauzdą tiesiančių raumenų maksimali jėga bei atliktas darbas I-ojo testavimo metu yra didesnis negu blauzdą lenkiančių raumenų, tačiau II-ojo testavimo metu pastebimas didesnis nuovargis abiejų raumenų. 3. Blauzdą tiesiančių raumenų maksimalios jėgos kampas abiejų testavimų metu yra vienodas, tačiau blauzdą lenkiančių raumenų II-ojo testavimo metu yra didesnis. 4. Pastebimas ryškus blauzdos raumenų atsigavimas abiejų testavimų metu.
Object of this work – to determine function features of cadets’ shank straighten and bend muscle and to make comparison in the course of year. Aim – to find out how function features of cadets’ shank muscle are changing during 6 months physical training period. Tasks: 1. To establish contraction average power, maximum power, peak torque, tiredness and recuperation alternation of shank straighten and bend muscle. 2. To compare the difference between 1st and 2nd test of shank muscle tiredness and recuperation when there is dynamic contraction of the muscle Hypothesis – it is thought that during 2nd test after 6 months cadets should have more physical power, there should be displayed more intense tiredness and recuperation of shank straighten and bend muscle. Conclusions: 1. During 1st and 2nd test muscle contraction average power in the course of strain has decreased and after 5 min. it has recuperated. 2. Maximum power of shank straighten muscle and work done during the 1st test is bigger than of bend muscle, but during 2nd test there is seen larger tiredness of both muscle. 3. Peak torque of shank straighten muscle during both tests is the same, but peak torque of shank bend muscle is bigger during the 2nd test. 4. There is seen a distinct shank muscle recuperation during both test.

Full text

Abstract:

This comparative study focuses on the detective genre and is conducted through literary analysis with a feminist critical perspective of two of its most iconic protagonists, Sherlock Holmes and Miss Marple, created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle in 1887 and Agatha Christie in 1930 respectively. The purpose is to attempt to establish the effect of the gender differences on these two protagonists. Both Holmes and Miss Marple are deemed as iconic in the detective genre, but the protagonists do not have similar experiences and are created by authors of different genders. Thus, the focus is to explore how gender differences are represented in the literary texts A Study in Scarlet (1887), “A Scandal in Bohemia” (1891), and The Murder at the Vicarage (1930) when it comes to their work as detectives. By using a feminist critical perspective and with the help of previous research, the differences in three central issues, that is, work methods, attitudes and method of disguise, are established. The most prominent result from the analysis is that Miss Marple has to work independently from the police force and trust another character, Leonard Clement, with what she knows hoping that Clement will use her observations to make the case move forward. By contrast, Holmes is approached by clients and even assists the police force in investigations, while Miss Marple is dismissed because of gender discrimination and ageism when she reaches out to the police force. Miss Marple is clearly a victim of gender discrimination and ageism, while Holmes is seen as eccentric but fully competent as a detective. Holmes is even described as having “extraordinary powers” while Miss Marple is described as an “old pussy” in a derogatory manner. Therefore, the results are that there is a significant difference in attitude where Holmes as a man encounters more positive attitudes and Miss Marple as a woman encounters more negative attitudes, all because of gender discrimination and ageism. These results are of great importance as it reveals what gender differences Holmes and Miss Marple encounter in their literary texts. It opens up the opportunity for more research in gender differences and gender discrimination in comparisons between protagonists. That Miss Marple is successful in the end, however, functions as a feminist statement.

Abstract:

As we have been actively involved in various teaching programmes for many years, we wanted to enquire how the students and teachers understood their school and compare it to how we experienced it. Do the students fully understand the knowledge they are receiving and can they learn from it? Do the teachers believe what they are teaching is understood by the students? What is the underlining knowledge of social practices in the school, which can inspire students in different ways? The aim of the study, as the title suggests, is to convey and describe the various methods practiced in a specific social practice.

Our project is a quality study. We have used observation, specific intense individual and group interviews. In the result, arrives a different message through what there is possible for the students to learn about the matter. These messages are visible in the different attitudes the teacher, the school and the organisation have vis-à-vis the matter. In the discussion, we have focussed on what has arrived in the result around the teacher's and the organisation's attitudes. How can these attitudes influence the students' attitude to the matter and how will one work in order to become aware about the messages that are sent.

Abstract:

År 2009 hade dokumentärfilmen Bananas!* premiär. Filmen skildrar rättegången i en långdragen konflikt mellan nicaraguanska bananarbetare och fruktföretaget Dole, där skadliga bekämpningsmedel anses ha gjort bananarbetare sterila. Bananas!* skapade debatt inför premiärvisningen vid Los Angeles filmfestival, då Dole ansåg att filmens innehåll bar på osanning, och ville stoppa filmen. Efter visningen stämde Dole filmens regissör Fredrik Gertten, producenten Margarete Jangård och filmbolaget WG Film. Detta blev starten på en kamp mellan ett företag och ett journalistiskt arbete, och en medial uppståndelse blev till. Den här uppsatsen undersöker hur tidningar i USA och Sverige rapporterade om konflikten kring Bananas!*. Tidningarna Los Angeles Times och Sydsvenskan analyseras för att ta reda på hur olika karaktärer i konflikten framställdes. Breven och den stämningsansökan som Dole skickade, där företaget uttryckte sin misstro gentemot filmen, analyseras även för att ta reda på hur Dole ramade in händelsen och hur detta kan ha påverkat tidningarnas rapportering. Detta med hjälp av teorier som framing, nyhetsvärdering och nyhetsretorik. Resultatet av denna undersökning visar att framställningen av karaktärerna skiljer sig åt i de två tidningarna. I Sydsvenskan är den generella framställningen av Fredrik Gertten positiv och av Dole negativ, medan framställningen av bananarbetarna och advokaten Juan Dominguez blir något positiv. Los Angeles Times framställer Dominguez, och delvis bananarbetarna, på ett negativt sätt, medan Dole och Gertten till stor del blir neutrala i dessa artiklar. Undersökningen visar även att Doles inramning av konflikten kan ha påverkat vad tidningarnas rapportering fokuserade på, där Sydsvenskan fokuserade mer på Doles felaktiga agerande och deras stämningsansökan medan Los Angeles Times rapportering överensstämmer med Doles inramning.

Abstract:

This thesis will examine why women are still expected to perform the “second shift” of both housework and childcare within contemporary society. To discuss this, an exploration of gender and feminist literature will explain the way men and women become associated with different gender traits and roles which occur through the socialisation process. In addition, a contemporary perspective will examine the changes that have occurred for women within the public areas of work and the implications for women in combining both their work and family obligations. This thesis will demonstrate that while feminine roles have been analysed by gender theory, further work needs to be done to challenge men’s roles within the home which has reinforced women’s continued association with their familial responsibilities.

Full text

Abstract:

La fondation d'une collégiale dans la ville de Dole répond à un voeu très ancien, celui d’Othon IV, duc de Méranie et comte palatin de Bourgogne. La mort l’en empêche, c’est Mahaut d'Artois son épouse, qui fonde en 1304 un chapitre constitué de douze chanoines, avec quatre chapelains perpétuels appelés semi-prébendés, et un doyen qui possède une double prébende. Cette fondation répond à la nécessité pour la comtesse de disposer d’un clergé apte à assurer le service spirituel d’une ville et de sa chapelle. Ce chapitre est associé à une familiarité de 15 à 20 prêtres dont la particularité est qu’ils soient natifs de la cité doloise. Ce chapitre relève du pape et non de l'archevêque de Besançon, le pape se réserve l'investiture canonique des chanoines nommés par le roi. L’assise foncière et urbaine du chapitre est due à Mahaut d'Artois qui fait les premières fondations et donations. La période moderne voit se greffer une assise temporelle importante grâce aux volontés testamentaires des fidèles. Les possessions foncières du chapitre à l’extérieur de l’espace urbain (170 hectares) s'émiettent dans une dizaine ou vingtaine de kilomètres autour de Dole. En Haute-Saône, nous trouvons le prieuré de Marast (130 hectares de terres) où le chapitre seigneur féodal, règne en maître sur nombre de villages. Le chapitre dolois possède les fonctions de curé et prieur de Dole et imprègne la vie religieuse de la ville. Les chanoines assurent eux-mêmes la cura animarum, c’est-à-dire, qu’ils se chargent de toutes les messes de la paroisse en cette qualité, avec les rémunérations qui accompagnent les actes liturgiques, baptêmes, mariages, et enterrements. Les chanoines dolois sont convaincus qu’ils peuvent exercer une influence en profondeur sur les fidèles en mettant l’accent sur la gestuelle et le rite. Le chapitre touche aussi le produit des dîmes, c'est-à-dire entre 7 et 8 % des récoltes en tant que curé primitif. Originaires de la région et de la villeelle-même, les chanoines possèdent un réel bagage intellectuel que la municipalité doloise et les corps constitués de la ville savent utiliser. Les chanoines, sont représentés de façon non négligeable dans les structures de la ville, nous retrouvons leur présence dans l’université fondée en 1423 par le duc Philippe le Bon. Certains chanoines y occupent des postes de professeurs, d’autres siègent à la chambre des comptes ou au parlement de Dole. Le chapitre joue un rôle majeur dans les institutions à caractère charitable et hospitalier, comme l’hôpital général, la maison du Bon-Pasteur où un chanoine siège au conseil d’administration. A l'Hôtel–Dieu, un chanoine est toujours directeur, et ce en accord avec la ville. La prébende doloise fait partie d’un jeu local qui vise à placer un fils de la bourgeoisie ou de la noblesse au sein d’une communauté religieuse en fonction du prestige que sa famille peut en retirer. Les chanoines composent, à de très rares exceptions, un milieu homogène issu des milieux bourgeois dolois. Cette bourgeoisie judiciaire et marchande étroitement unie n’a de cesse de consolider sa position sociale et de « se farder de noblesse » grâce aux charges exercées. Avec ces 1 500 livres annuelles, au milieu du XVIIIe siècle, la prébende doloise paraît donc très attractive. Elle participe au désir d’ascension sociale d’une famille, et assure aux chanoines une modeste aisance. Etre chanoine de Dole c’est aussi faire partie des élites, le lévite dolois par sa fortune, son influence morale et religieuse peut se confondre avec les hommes de loi et plus particulièrement des notaires. Le chapitre de Dole reste à l’époque moderne le reflet de la position stratégique des familles doloises, d’une forme enviable de réussite, et d’un rôle majeur dans la vie religieuse doloise
The foundation of a college in the town of Dole answers to a very old cvcwish, the one of Othon IV, duke of Mérany, count palatine of Burgundy. His death prevented him from achieving his dream. His wife Mahaut d’Artois founded a chapter in 1304, of twelve canons with four perpetual chaplains, named semi-prebends, and a dean who had a double prebend. This foundation met the need for the countess to have a clergy able to ensure a perpetual unit city a chapel. This chapter is associated with a familiarity of 15 to 20 priests coming from Dole. This chapter is under the pope is and not the archbishop’s responsability. The pope keeps the canonical investiture of the canons appointed by the king. The land and urban base of the chapter is due to Mahaut d’Artois, who did the first foundations and donations. The modern times sees graft an important temporal basis thank to the testamentary wishes of the faithful. The landholdings of the chapter outside the city disappeared in a dozen kilometers around Dole. In Haute Saône, we can find the priory of Marast (130 hectares of land) where the chapter feudal lords reigns supreme on many villages. The Dole chapter has the functions of priest and pervades the religious life of the city. The Dole chapter has the functions of priest and pervades the religious life of the city. The canons provide themselves the cura animarum that’s to say they take care of all masses in the parish, being paid for the liturgical actions, baptisms, weddings and funeral. The canons are convinced they can exert influence over the faithful with an emphasis on gesture and ritual.The chapter also gets the money from the tithes that is to say between 7 and 8 % of the crops as the first priest. Coming from the region an from the town itself, the canons are really intellectually gifted that the town of Dole and the elcted assemblies in the locale communities and the fnd trully there again in the ducke Philippe le Bon. Some canons are working as teachers there and some others sit at the chamber of accounts or at the Dole parliament. The chapterplays a very important part in the institutions dealing with charities and hospital waters, as the general hospital, the Bon Pasteur house in which a canon sits at the board of governors. At the Hotel Dieu, a camon is always at its head and this with the town’s agreement.The prebend from Dole is part of a local interplay which sets a son coning from the Bourgoisies or Nobility’s rignts among a religious community depending or the prestige that his family com be provided with. The canons build, with little exception, a homogenous group descended from the Dole Bourgoisie. This judicial and commercial Bourgoisie closely linked never stop strenghening its social stats and copying the nobility thanks to its duties. With this 1500 “livres per year, in the mid 18th century the Dole prebend therefore one seems very attractive. It contributests a family’s ”wish toreach social achievement and provides confortable living.To be a canon from Dole it with quitea is also to beloowg to the elite the Dole levite thanks to his wealth his morale influence can be compared to new of law and more particularly to sollicitoirsThe Dole etaper remains in modern times, the reflet of the strategic situation of the Dole choper remains in modern times , the reflect of anenivisable vison of achievement and of major part in the Dole religions life

Congress' 1964 passage of the Tonkin Gulf Resolution represented the pinnacle of the legislature's conscious repudiation of its role as superintendent of America's foreign policy to the executive branch. Conversely, for most diplomatic historians, the passage of the 1973 War Powers Act marked Congress' reawakening to its supervisory role and the collapse of what historian Arthur Schlesinger Jr. termed the "Imperial Presidency." In fact, it was the 1970 repeal of the Tonkin Gulf Resolution, a resolution that embodied everything Congress had abdicated and all the dangers that abdication represented, that actually served to announce Congress' unwillingness to acquiesce to presidential foreign policy. The repeal of the Tonkin Gulf Resolution had long-term implications for the exercise of America's cold war foreign policy, effects that were most keenly felt by President Gerald Ford when Congress refused to allow U.S. intervention in Angola despite Ford's personal pleas to both legislative branches

Bananas are the number one selling produce item in the grocery store. On average, bananas account for 6% of produce department sales and 1% of total grocery store sales. According to The Packer’s “2010 Fresh Trends”, 88% of consumers in all categories purchase bananas. Also, 94% of consumers in the study purchased bananas within the last twelve months. Over the last decade, fuel prices have increased to a point where logistics and shipping have become more important than ever to the banana industry. This logistics challenge is compounded because there are no bananas grown in the United States and the fruit has to be shipped from around the world. Fuel is used at high rates via the ocean cargo and trucking shipments to meet yearly demand. To manage these logistical challenges, this thesis analyzes the optimal shipping route for bananas arriving to the west coast from Central and South America to various markets using a transshipment model. The goal of the transshipment model estimates the supply chain that creates the lowest cost. Through analysis of fuel, trucking, and shipping markets, the model makes the optimal decision regarding transportation routing. The model is limited to transportation costs only. However, items such as fruit costs and other additional up charges could be analyzed.

Abstract:

This study analyzed repeated methylphenidate (MPH) administration and its effects on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the dorsal striatum and nucleus accumbens of male and female adolescent rats. In Experiment 1, rats were administered intraperitoneal (ip) saline, 1, 3, or 5 mg/kg dose of MPH every second day from postnatal day (P)33–P49. Locomotor activity was analyzed for 10 min after each administration. Results revealed that the 1 mg/kg dose of MPH produced locomotor suppression, however, the 5 mg/kg dose of MPH produced locomotor sensitization and robust behavioral activation in females as compared to males. In Experiment 2, animals were administered ip saline or the 5 mg/kg dose of MPH using an identical regimen but a 30 min behavioral test was employed. Dorsal striatum and nucleus accumbens tissue was assayed for BDNF at P50. Females demonstrated sensitization to MPH and increased locomotor activation compared to males. Interestingly, females given MPH demonstrated a significant 42% decrease of striatal BDNF whereas males administered MPH demonstrated a significant 50.4% increase of striatal BDNF compared to controls. There were no effects on accumbal BDNF. This report demonstrates robust sex differences in the behavioral response, but sex-dependent changes in striatal BDNF in response to MPH in adolescence.

Abstract:

Les glaces accumulees depuis plusieurs centaines de milliers d'annees au-dessus des grandes calottes polaires contiennent des bulles d'air qui constituent les seuls echantillons de l'atmosphere passee de notre planete. L'analyse isotopique de l'oxygene de cet air a ete effectuee sur des carottes de glace issues du forage de vostok, en antarctique, et de deux forages au centre du groenland, grip et gisp2. Ces enregistrements couvrent les deux derniers cycles climatiques en antarctique (soit environ 250 000 ans d'archives), et le dernier cycle climatique pour les carottes du groenland (soit environ 130 000 ans). L'homogeneite isotopique de l'oxygene atmospherique en tout point du globe permet une correlation des enregistrements glaciaires issus des forages de gispii et de vostok sur l'ensemble du premier cycle climatique. Les resultats de cette etude montrent que les modifications climatiques ont probablement ete en phase entre les hemispheres nord et sud. Pour les glaces proches du socle rocheux au groenland, correspondant au dernier interglaciaire, la sequence stratigraphique a ete perturbee par des deformations liees a l'ecoulement de la glace. Neanmoins, la correlation du fond de grip avec l'enregistrement a vostok permet d'attribuer des ages bien specifiques a certaines de ces couches de glaces. L'enregistrement des isotopes de l'oxygene atmospherique obtenu sur deux cycles climatiques a vostok, permet enfin de reconstituer le signal d'effet dole sur les 250 000 dernieres annees. Ce signal mesure l'enrichissement naturel en oxygene 18 de l'atmosphere par rapport a l'oxygene de l'eau l'oceanique, du aux fractionnements inherents aux reactions de photosynthese et de respiration de la biosphere globale. Cette derniere etude met en evidence un minimum d'effet dole autour de 175 000 ans. Ces resultats apportent de nouveaux indices sur la relation entre l'insolation, le climat et la biosphere oceanique ou continentale.

Abstract:

Avsikten med denna studie var att undersöka vilka spår av teknikundervisning somfanns i grundskolans år ett till tre. Våra upplevelser var att lokala arbetsplaner ochmedvetet arbete inom teknikämnet saknades i år ett till tre, vilket vi ansåg försvåraelevernas chanser att uppnå målen för teknikämnet i slutet av år fem. Trots upplevelsenav att teknikämnet försummas, har vi ändå sett att lärare undervisar i teknik i år ett tilltre, dock omedvetet. Syftet blev därmed att studera teknikämnets förekomst och karaktärmer systematiskt och genom observation och analys kritiskt granska hur teknikämnetkom till uttryck i den vanliga undervisningen. Detta analyserades utifrån en kvalitativmetod med deltagande observationer och berättande observationsanteckningar sominsamlingsdata. Datainsamlingen genomfördes på två olika skolor och baseras påtjugoen lektionsobservationer.

Resultatet visar att lärare i år ett till tre skapar möjligheter för eleverna att tillägna sigtekniska kunskaper och färdigheter, dock omedvetet, vilket vi benämner som doldteknikundervisning. Lärares omedvetna teknikundervisning resulterar i att elever i år etttill tre, genom handling eller resonemang, kan knyta an till kursplanemålen förteknikämnet i år fem. Det framkommer dock att lärarna inte alltid tar tillvara påelevernas initiativ, vilket genererar i att tillfällen att lyfta tekniken går förlorade.

Vår uppfattning är att lärare är omedvetna om att delar i deras vanliga undervisningtillhör teknikämnet. Vi har sett dold teknikundervisning och tror att den förkommer istor utsträckning, därmed finns det dold måluppfyllelse som inte heller blir synlig förlärarna vid bedömning av kursplanemålen.

The purpose of this study, through our own experience of the course outline andconsciously work on the subject of technology, is that it is inadequate through years oneto three. This, we felt prevent students' chances of achieving the objectives in thesubject technology at the end of year five. Despite our experience of the subjecttechnology’s negligence, we have still seen that teachers teach technology in year one tothree, but unconsciously. With this background, we became curious about the traces oftechnology education that do exist in primary school’s years one to three. The aim wasto study technology’s prevalence and nature of a more systematic and thorough analysisto critically examine how the subject of technology was reflected in mainstreameducation. The method of study is qualitative in nature, involving observations andnarrative field notes as data collection. The data collection was carried out at twodifferent schools and is based on twenty-one lesson observations.

The results show that teachers' unconsciously technology teachings actually succeed inthe students in year one to three, by act or reasoning may relate to curriculum objectivesfor the subject in year five. The results found that teachers in years one to three createopportunities for students to acquire technical knowledge and skills, however,unconsciously, which we refer to as hidden technology education. We have also seenthat the teachers do not always take advantage of their student’s initiative, which resultsin lost opportunities to further develop the subject.

Our view remains that teachers are unaware that part of their regular teachings actuallybelongs to the technology topic. We have seen hidden technology teaching and believethat it is lost to a large extent; therefore, there is hidden effectiveness that does notbecome visible to the teachers.
