Manrique, Daniel R. « Evaluation of the effectiveness of three instructional modalities for best practices of military training and education ». Thesis, TUI University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3690543.
Texte intégralThis study examined three different instructional delivery modalities in order to identify the best practices for training and education of military personnel from the Department of Defense (DOD) in preparation for supporting civilian authorities during emergencies, disasters, and catastrophic events. This quantitative research sought to identify the best practices for military education recognizing the instructional delivery that results in the highest student academic performance and the highest level of personal learning satisfaction in order to identify program effectiveness and maximize the use of educational budget for DOD.
The population for this research study consisted of nine hundred students (n=900), divided into three groups of 300 students who graduated from the US Army North (USARNORTH) training program for Defense Support to Civil Authorities (DSCA) course level II, conducted from 2012 to 2014. Each group was composed of five courses of 60 students each who have completed the Defense Support to Civilian Authorities (DSCA) program via one of the three instructional delivery methods: face-to-face instruction, n=300; digital instruction, n=300; or web-based instruction, n=300. This study used secondary data collected from 2012 to 2014 from students’ academic final grades and satisfaction survey feedback to identify the best instructional methodology. The finding after conducting all statistical analyses reveled that in fact the overall, type of instruction significantly affected participants’ reported course satisfaction and course success, even when controlling for educational level, branch of service, gender, and instructor teaching experience. Based upon the findings, participants who received face to face instruction had higher course success (final grades) than did participants who had web-based and digital instruction. Participants who had face-to-face instruction also reported higher course satisfaction than did participants who had web-based and digital instruction. When examining the differences between digital and web-based instruction, parametric and nonparametric findings suggests that when controlling for demographic covariates, participants who had web-based instruction were more likely to report higher satisfaction responses than were participants who had digital instruction. However, the results were mixed between webbased and digital instruction for course success. Finally, the results of this study provide a better understanding of the most effective instructional approach and practical contributions that could improve current military education modalities and enhance instruction delivery by supporting face to face education as the instructional method that provides a higher level of students ‘success and satisfaction which can be used to justify allocation of funds and resources for educational programs for DOD which is currently impacted by a ten-year cut in spending due to caps instituted by the Budget Control Act (BCA) of 2011 (Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR2014). xviii

Texte intégralPhysical exercise is characterized by its beneficial effects on the human body. At the bone level, it results in an osteogenic action that improves the quality of the bone tissue. This is determined by vascularization and angiogenesis, among other things. The vascular network provides the bone tissue with the oxygen and nutrients that the bone cells need for their proper functioning. The effect of exercise on these different parameters depends on the intensity, frequency and type of exercise. Continuous exercise has little effect on bone tissue. Intermittent exercise has beneficial effects in terms of osteogenesis in Wistar rats. However, no study, to our knowledge, has investigated the effect of combined exercise on bone tissue quality and vascularization. Our objective is to analyze the effects of these different modalities of continuous, intermittent and combined exercise on the architectural and micro-architectural parameters of bone tissue, while taking into account the different mechanisms of mechano-transduction and vascularization. This study shows that combined training tends to promote angiogenesis of the distal femur. This phenomenon is associated with an osteogenic effect on the femoral trabecular bone. Intermittent running, previously known in the literature for its osteogenic effect, tends to have a slight angiogenic effect. Continuous running at moderate intensity does not seem to affect all the parameters in the femoral bone

Resumo: Justificativa e Objetivo: Complicações pulmonares estão entre as maiores causas de morbidade e mortalidade do pós-operatório (PO) de cirurgia cardíaca. As causas são diversas e estão relacionadas à disfunção pulmonar causada pela circulação extracorpórea, esternotomia, uso da artéria mamária interna, drenos torácicos e à dor no período pós-operatório. Ocorre disfunção da musculatura respiratória acompanhada de perda da força muscular e redução das capacidades e volumes pulmonares. Nesse contexto, técnicas fisioterapêuticas têm por objetivo a reexpansão e melhora da capacidade pulmonar além da manutenção ou ganho de força muscular respiratória, e podem contribuir para prevenção e tratamento de tais complicações. O objetivo do presente estudo foi avaliar o efeito do treinamento muscular inspiratório em pacientes submetidos à cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio, com o uso do Threshold® IMT no período pós-operatório. Método: Quarenta e sete pacientes submetidos à revascularização eletiva do miocárdio através de esternotomia mediana foram randomizados por sorteio prévio à avaliação pré-operatória e divididos em dois grupos: Grupo Estudo (23 pacientes, cinco mulheres e 18 homens) e Grupo Controle (24 pacientes, oito mulheres e 16 homens), com idade média de 61,83±8,61 e 66,33±10,20 respectivamente. Ambos os grupos foram submetidos ao protocolo de rotina para atendimento fisioterápico em pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca. Apenas o grupo estudo foi submetido a um protocolo de treinamento inspiratório com o uso do Threshold® IMT com carga de 40% da Pimáx obtida no 1º PO durante três dias. Foram mensuradas e comparadas às pressões respiratórias máximas (Pimáx e Pemáx), VC (Volume Corrente), CV (Capacidade Vital) e Pico de Fluxo Expiratório (Pico de Fluxo Expiratório) no Pré-OP, PO1 e PO3. Resultados: Observou-se redução significativa em todas as variáveis mensuradas no 1º dia de pós-operatório quando comparadas ao pré-operatório, nos dois grupos estudados. Pimáx (p<0,0001), Pemáx (p<0,0001), VC GE (p<0,0004) e GC (p<0,0001), CV GE (p<0,0001) e GC (p<0,0001) e Pico de Fluxo Expiratório (p<0,0001). No PO3, o GE apresentou, em comparação ao GC, maior valor de CV, (GE 1230,4±477,86ml vs GC 919,17±394,47ml, p=0,0222) e VC (GE 608,09±178,24ml vs GC 506,96±168,31ml, p=0,0490). Conclusão: Pacientes submetidos à cirurgia cardíaca sofrem redução da capacidade ventilatória e da força muscular respiratória após a cirurgia. O treinamento muscular realizado foi eficaz em recuperar o volume corrente e a capacidade vital no terceiro dia de pós-operatório, no grupo treinado. Não houve diferença na incidência de complicações respiratórias e o grupo treinado apresentou menor tempo de internação na unidade coronariana
Abstract: Background and Objectives: Pulmonary complications are the major causes of morbidity and mortality of postoperative period (PO) of cardiac surgery. The causes are diverse and are related to pulmonary dysfunction caused by cardiopulmonary bypass, sternotomy, internal mammary artery use, chest drains, and pain in the postoperative period. There may be dysfunction of the respiratory muscles accompanied by loss of muscle strength and reduction of capacity and lung volumes. In this context, physical therapy techniques are designed to re-expansion and improve lung capacity and maintenance or gain of respiratory muscle strength and may contribute to prevention and treatment of such complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of inspiratory muscle training in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, using the Threshold® IMT in the postoperative period. Method: Forty-seven patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting via median sternotomy were randomized by lot prior to the preoperative evaluation, and divided into two groups: Study Group (SG) (23 patients, 5 women and 18 men) and Control group (CG) (24 patients, 8 women and 16 men) and with mean age of 61.83±8.61 and 66.33±10.20 respectively. Both groups were subjected to routine protocol for the physical therapy treatment in post-cardiac surgery. However, only the study group was subjected to inspiratory training protocol using Threshold IMT® with a load of 40% of MIP obtained in first postoperative day for three days. Maximal respiratory pressures (MIP and MEP), VT (Tidal Volume), VC (Vital Capacity) and Peak Flow in the Pre-OP, PO1 and PO3 were measured and compared. Results: There was a significant reduction in all variables measured on PO1 compared to preoperative values in both groups, MIP (p<0.0001), MEP (p<0.0001), VT SG (p<0.0004) and CG (p<0.0001), VC SG (p<0.0001) and CG (p<0.0001) and Peak Flow (p<0.0001). At PO3, SG presented higher value of VT, SG 1230.4±477.86ml vs CG 919.17±394.47ml (p=0.0222) and VC SG 608.09±178.24ml vs CG 506.96±168.31ml (p=0.0490). There were differences between SG and CG for VT (p=0.0490) and VC (p=0.0222) in PO3. Conclusion: Patients undergoing cardiac surgery experience reduced ventilatory capacity and respiratory muscle strength after surgery. Muscle training was performed to retrieve the effective tidal volume and vital capacity in the third postoperative day of the trained group. There was no difference in the incidence of respiratory complications and the trained group had shorter hospitalization in the coronary unit

Pillette, Léa. « Redefining and Adapting Feedback for Mental-Imagery based Brain-Computer Interface User Training to the Learners’ Traits and States ». Thesis, Bordeaux, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019BORD0377/document.
Texte intégralMental-Imagery based Brain-Computer Interfaces (MI-BCIs) present new opportunities to interact with digital technologies, such as neuroprostheses or videogames, only by performing mental imagery tasks, such as imagining an object rotating. The recognition of the command for the system is based on the analysis of the brain activity of the user. The users must learn to produce brain activity patterns that are recognizable by the system in order to control BCIs. However, current training protocols do not enable 10 to 30% of persons to acquire the skills required to use BCIs. The lack of robustness of BCIs limit the development of the technology outside of research laboratories. This thesis aims at investigating how the feedback provided throughout the training can be improved and adapted to the traits and states of the users. First, we investigate the role that feedback is currently given in MI-BCI applications and training protocols. We also analyse the theories and experimental contributions discussing its role and usefulness. Then, we review the different feedback that have been used to train MI-BCI users. We focus on three main characteristics of feedback, i.e., its content, its modality of presentation and finally its timing. For each of these characteristics, we reviewed the literature to assess which types of feedback have been tested and what is their impact on the training. We also analysed which traits or states of the learners were shown to influence BCI training outcome. Based on these reviews of the literature, we hypothesised that different characteristics of feedback could be leveraged to improve the training of the learners depending on either traits or states. We reported the results of our experimental contributions for each of the characteristics of feedback. Finally, we presented different recommendations and challenges regarding each characteristic of feedback. Potential solutions were proposed to meet these recommendations in the future

Texte intégralIntroduction: Global postural reeducation (GPR), Pilates, and stabilization exercises using a Swiss ball, in addition to classic kinesiotherapy, are often used in physical therapy. There are no studies comparing exercises with the ball, Pilates, and GPR. Objectives: to compare GPR with Swiss ball and Pilates in relation to trunk muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility of the posterior muscular chains and spine mobility in healthy adults. Methods: 100 subjects of both sexes, aged between 18 and 50 years, randomized into groups: Control, Ball, GPR and Pilates. The individuals were evaluated by a blinded evaluator at the baseline and post-intervention, in relation to anthropometric data, physical activity (IPAQ), flexibility (Toe-touch test), mobility of the spine (Schober and Stibor), strength (BIODEX isokinetic dynamometer) and trunk muscle endurance (Sorenson and Crunch). Each intervention was performed in one one-hour session per week, for 8 weeks, in groups of five people. The statistical analysis followed the principles of intention to treat (p <= 0.05). Results: There was a statistically significant difference for gain in flexibility only for the GPR, a gain in extensor and flexor endurance for the exercises with the ball, and GPR, and a gain in flexor endurance for the Pilates, compared to the control group, which had no alterations after intervention. There were no significant differences in the results for strength. Conclusions: The Pilates exercises, GPR and exercises with the ball, applied once a week for eight weeks, were especially effective in improving muscle endurance and muscular flexibility. None of the interventions developed trunk muscle strength

Texte intégralThis thesis, which take place in a clinical approach with a psychoanalytic orientation in the sciences of education, focuses on the future mathematics teacher. Previous research in such an approach has led researchers to describe the time of transfer from student to teacher, as "professional adolescence" (Bossard, 2004) and to propose (Blanchard-Laville, 1997) (Chaussecourte, 2003, 2014) the notion of transfert didactique to apprehend modalities of the relation to knowledge in the space of the class. In line with this work, this thesis proposes to put to work the notion of transfert didactique through two methodological modalities to the conjugation of which it reflects. It is firstly, clinical interviews of research and on the other hand clinical observations. The latter are declined in two forms, one "ultra-clinical" (Chaussecourte, 2003) and the other more instrumented (Blanchard-Laville, 1997). The coupling observation and interview is the subject of a methodological interrogation. In this thesis, mathematics is considered both as an object of instruction and as a potentially structuring object of the psychic economy of mathematics teachers. From this perspective, the thesis raises the question of the place of the didactics of mathematics in a clinical research with a psychoanalytic orientation. The clinical study of the material leads us to propose and to mobilize the notion of parentalité psychique interne professionnelle which could be relevant to apprehend modalities of the didactic transfer of the teacher especially during moments of professional insecurity (Beginning of career, change of assignment'). Finally, the sensitivity to these questions seems to us to be a way to be taken into account in teacher training, in particular through the use of devices for analyzing professional practices
Sosner, Philippe. « Effet hypotenseur de nouvelles modalités d’exercice physique chez le patient hypertendu de grade 1 ou 2 ». Thesis, Poitiers, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016POIT2260.
Texte intégralHigh blood pressure is a common disease with many cardiovascular complications. Inactivity is also an important cardiovascular risk factor, and the regular practice of physical activity (PA) decreases very significantly this risk, more than the single improvement of blood pressure (BP). Therefore, PA is recommended for its contribution on the management of hypertension. The “acute” BP fall following a bout of exercise contributes to the “chronic” antihypertensive effect of physical training, by inducing both functional and structural adaptations (BP regulation systems and components of arterial wall, respectively). Face to the many modalities of PA (aerobic, strength, continuous or intermittent mode, outdoor, indoor or in swimming-pool) and to the desires and availabilities of the patient, we aimed to assess, in hypertensive individuals, the effect of new modes (high-intensity intermittent exercise (HIIE), cycling in immersed condition) using preferably ambulatory BP monitoring measures. Thereby, our research identified, through a meta-analysis and 3 clinical studies, the following results:A- regarding PA characteristics : 1- a BP decrease following one bout of HIIE, 2-week HIIE training (thrice a week) and 9-month HIIE training (twice a week) in a combined lifestyle program;2- an additional BP improvement in up-to-the chest immersed condition; 3- an improvement in arterial stiffness (pulse wave velocity, PWV);B- regarding patient’s characteristics: favorable moderators such as a resting BP ≥135/85 mm Hg, or the association of diet intervention. These results should contribute to improve prescription of PA in hypertensive individuals

Texte intégralThe thesis takes for object the training issues of future designers. At the crossroad of education sociology, of work and professions sociology, it consists in accounting the different socializations which led individuals to become designers. It consists in understanding who and how people decide today to become designer. This thesis is based on a survey led in two training institutions which have the particularity to be on the highest level of design superior teaching: one large public school and one large private school. On the other hand, it consists in examining the different professional paths existing for students. First, thought the analysis of the social characteristics of student admitted in these two establishments, it consists in understanding the common processes of primary socialization which led these young people to turn towards the designers profession. Then, we will see how these two schools, thought their selection way and their specific secondary socialization, oppose themselves quite vividly on the way to conceive the designers profession and the nature of the services a designer can be led to accomplish in a company. The methodology gathers long duration observations; sixty interviews carried out with students, teachers and professionals; the exhaustive analysis of the archives of scholar files from the two schools and the results of a quantitative survey led among students in 2010

Texte intégralThe professionalization process of nurses in France seems to be preferentially based on knowledge and activities. The professionalization of individuals through the building up of a professional identity is hardly taken into account. In this study, we suggest to examine the professional identity development of nursing students from a psychosocial viewpoint. The building up of nursing students’ professional identity rests on the elaboration and development of socio-professional representations of the nursing profession on the one hand, and of cross-group relationships and the process of social categorization embraced by nursing students through their training on the other. Conducted among beginning and advanced students in four Training Institutes of the Aquitaine Region, this two-stage survey combines quantitative and qualitative methods: small, spontaneous group interviews were conducted at the beginning and end of the school year; the full student body was also given a questionnaire halfway through the school year. The results indicate differences and changes in the students’socio-professional representations of their future profession. Differences were observed not only depending on training level but also depending on the students’ home IFSI (Institut de Formation en Soins Infirmiers - Nursing Assistant Training Institute). The cross-ISFI social categorization reveals changes in categorization methods depending on the IFSI, and little correlation with training levels

Texte intégralCardiovascular disease risk factors, such as lipid profile deterioration, become more pronounced after menopause making coronary heart disease a leading cause of death among postmenopausal women. A large proportion of women after menopause gain weight especially in the abdominal region resulting in several metabolic disturbances. Recent evidence also suggests that loss of estrogen function in menopause is associated with the development of a state of hepatic steatosis. Excessive fat accumulation in hepatocytes has been shown to play an important role in the development of insulin resistance and is even considered as a hepatic component of the metabolic syndrome. There is an important need to establish strategies to counteract fat accumulation in adipocyte and liver in postmenopausal women specifically considering the fact that utilization of hormone replacement therapy is now less supported. The four studies of the present thesis have been conducted in an attempt to provide information on the treatment and prevention of estrogen withdrawal-induced fat mass and hepatic steatosis via lifestyle modifications (diet and exercise training) in an ovariectomized (Ovx) rat model of menopause. In the first two studies we focused on fat mass gain and regain following weight loss. In study 1, we showed that food restriction program (FR) decreased (P < 0.01) body mass, intra-abdominal fat pad weight, and liver triacylglycerol (TAG) levels as compared to normally fed Ovx rats. Moreover, resistance training program (RT) was useful in preventing body weight as well as adipose tissue and liver fat regain in Ovx rats, following diet-induced weight loss. Results of study 2 confirmed the efficiency of the FR + RT program in reducing body weight as well as liver and adipocytes fat accretion in Ovx rats. In line with the findings of our first study, continuation of only RT constituted an asset to attenuate body weight and fat mass regain in Ovx rats following a FR + RT weight loss program, although the impact was less than maintaining FR alone. Similar to estrogen supplementation, results of study 3 indicated that endurance exercise training conducted concurrently with the induction of ovariectomy significantly attenuated liver and adipocyte fat accumulation. However, an endurance exercise training state acquired before ovariectomy did not provide any protective effects against ovariectomy-induced fat accumulation if exercise is discontinued after the ovariectomy. Finally, complementing previous findings we showed in study 4 that liver gene expressions of transcription factors SREBP-1c and ChREBP along with downstream lipogenic enzymes SCD-1 and ACC were increased with estrogens withdrawal conversely to reduced PPAR-α mRNA levels (P < 0.01). Furthermore, gene expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines including IKKβ and IL-6 as well as protein content of NF-кB were higher (P < 0.01) in the liver of Ovx than in Sham animals. All of these responses were corrected with estrogen supplementation alone as well as with endurance exercise training alone in Ovx rats. On the whole, our results indicate that exercise training (resistance or endurance) has a significant impact on reducing fat accumulation in liver and adipocytes in Ovx rats. In addition, it seems that endurance exercise training in Ovx rats stimulates estrogenic-like effects on the expression of genes involved in lipid accumulation and sub-clinical inflammation in the liver.

Understanding the types of exercise programs that appeal to older individuals, as well as the factors that predict exercise adherence was the rationale behind this thesis. Study one investigated adherence between three types of home-based exercise programs, as well as identifying the predictors of exercise adherence among older individuals who were at an elevated risk of falling. Community-dwelling older adults aged >70 years (n=317) were recruited and divided into three groups consisting of gentle exercise (GE), structured strength and balance training (SSB) or a novel “unstructured” group that incorporated exercise into their daily lifestyle (LIFE). After six months of training, retention to the program was 81%, and overall adherence for the entire sample was 43%. Health status was the major predictor for non-adherence (OR=1.96, 95% CI=1.18-3.25) and other factors significantly associated with higher exercise adherence included parameters from biological, psychological, functional and behavioural domains. The LIFE and GE groups recorded significantly higher adherence (25.5%) compared to the SSB group and since the GE group was used as a control condition, it appears that the LIFE approach enhanced adherence to exercise in older adults. Following the identification of numerous barriers to home-based exercise participation for older individuals and discovering that lifestyle programs can yield higher adherence, study two examined the effects of a novel form of training, Nintendo Wii Fit, on strength, balance and functional performance. This novel training regime was compared to a program which integrated exercise into daily life (IEDL) and was based upon the LIFE program in study one. The main outcome measures for this study included exercise adherence, strength, balance and functional performance. Nineteen community-dwelling women aged >70 years were recruited and randomised into the Wii group or the IEDL group. Following 10 weeks of training, adherence to the Wii Fit (88%) and IEDL (85%) groups was comparable. Additionally, the Wii Fit group displayed significantly higher balance confidence (17.3%) and knee extensor strength (33.1%) compared to the IEDL group. A number of improvements were recorded within the Wii Fit group for functional performance, knee flexion and extension strength and power, ankle dorsiflexion and static balance. Within-group improvements for similar parameters were recorded for the IEDL group, however, their magnitudes were often lower. It appears that novel, home-based exercise programs can improve exercise adherence among older populations without compromising performance outcomes. The findings from this research provide allied health professionals with additional choices to traditional exercise programs for elderly populations.

After surgery for the replacement of hip and knee joints, patients often experience lower limb dysfunction due to pain in the operated area. Abnormalities are seen in the inability of the patient to properly balance his weight on both legs. Surgeons usually suggest that patients should use accessory equipment to improve the weight-bearing balance of both legs in order to accelerate their return to normal function. It is thus important to establish a system for quantitative evaluation of both the weight-bearing balance of the legs during walking and the therapeutic effect of the accessory equipment. A tilting table is a rehabilitation equipment for gravity adaptation but it can neither be used in lower joint exercises, weight-bearing feedback at standing posture, nor in balance training. We also cannot quantitatively evaluate the effect of sole pressure feedback because this measurement needs to be taken simultaneously during training for integrated gravity adaptation and stepping balance. Balance shafts which are commonly used in walking training of patients with lower limb dysfunction cannot sufficiently support the patient’s body-weight and their use will ultimately result in poor recovery of muscle strength. It is interesting to know that during the act of balancing posture, the correct order of muscle activation and the balance of lower limbs can be induced and improved, respectively, in walking training by certain combinations of sole pressure data and electrical stimuli. The goals of the present study can be divided into three major items: quantitative evaluation of walking balance in patients with artificial hip or knee joints, development of a walking training system using sole pressure feedback gravity adaptation, and development of a walking-training system using sole pressure feedback electrostimuli. The first part of this study was done in cooperation with Professor Ming-Yih Lee, who developed the sole pressure detection system, and the Department of Orthopedics at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital. This aimed to analyze and compare the weight-bearing balance during walking between normal individuals and patients with artificial hip or knee joints. In addition, we also evaluated post-stroke patients and compared the efficacy of three different sole pressure detection systems. Our study is the first one to use three balance indicators in the clinical assessment of walking in orthopedic patients. We analyzed the walking balance conditions among ten normal individuals, nine patients with artificial hip joint replacement and 26 patients with artificial knee joints. The subjects were made to walk independently and then walk while using three different kinds of accessory equipment with different heights of armrests. The three different armrest heights include 1) up to the level of the greater trochanter of the standing patient (condition A), 2) midway between the height of the greater trochanter and the palm (condition B) and 3) up to the level of the distal wrist crease (condition C). Our results demonstrated that 40% of knee joint replacement patients who used condition B or C had the best balance indicators, and 56% of hip joint replacement patients who used condition C had the best balance indicators. As for the comparison of the three sole pressure detection systems, our study used a sole pressure detection system developed by ourselves and two commercially available devices, the Pedar and GaitMatII, to clinically evaluate post-stroke patients. Our results showed that in the walking cycles, the single foot standing time ratios between the affected and unaffected legs measured by the GaitMatII pressure pad and our systems were 0.6 and 0.625, respectively. The single foot standing peak force ratio between the affected and unaffected legs measured by Pedar was 0.86 while the single foot standing total pressure ratio between the affected and unaffected leg measured by our system was 0.46. The second part of the study was the improvement of our newly developed gravity adaptation stepping machine. We attached sole pressure detection and feedback equipment and suspended weight supporting gear to the machine and developed a computer-based interface Window program with use of visual basic software. We used a touch-control monitor for better manipulation. The pattern of pressure distribution in 24 sensors in both legs could be monitored simultaneously when the patients stand on the paddle by transducing signals from the monitor to the Programming Logic Controller (PLC) and the sole pressure detection feedback equipment. The system also provided adjustment parameters such as paddle velocity, right and left foot alternation transfer time, and paddle amplitude. As for the suspended weight-supporting gear, our system could not only provide the patients with protection while using this rehabilitation equipment but also provide the accessory tool of body-weight support for handicapped patients. The third part of our study consisted of making some additions to the sole pressure detection system developed by Professor Lee, to lessen the power requirement, miniaturize the hardware design and systemically improve the design elements such as the M30620ECGP single chip microprocessor, quick-flashing memory card, alternative switch, membrane volt-resistance sensory element, signal amplification and transfer circuit, power circuit, liquid crystal display monitor, and amplifier. We also integrated a custom-made double-channel electrostimulator into the sole pressure feedback walking training system. The power circuit was modified to be able to simultaneously provide 3V and 9V of power to achieve a stimulatory effect. We performed function tests of the electrical stimuli by using different frequencies (100 Hz and 5 Hz). The output currents were 2.2mA and 0.6mA respectively, and the output voltage was 90V. We noted no interferences when the two channels were simultaneously tested. In the quantitative analysis of walking weight-bearing balance, our balance indicators could prove to be a useful basis in the clinical evaluation of a patient’ ability to control his posture. The results can provide surgeons and therapists with an objective reference in analyzing the outcomes of surgery and therapy. In the development of the sole pressure feedback gravity adaptation stepping training system, our study demonstrated that patients can use one single equipment for training in balance, stepping, and gravity adaptation simultaneously. This can not only shorten the rehabilitation time but also simultaneously provide the surgeons and therapists with the control parameters through the computer, and thus adjust to a more appropriate rehabilitation regimen for the individual patient. In terms of the custom-built sole pressure feedback electrostimulatory walking system, we have shown that our equipment can not only expand the storage capacity of testing data but also achieve the effect of sole pressure walking training through double stimulatory pulses generated by the pads that are attached to the patients’ lower limbs.

Texte intégralAt present knowledge society encounters great transformations and challenges. One of these is the urgent necessity to restrict the (still) persistent phenomena of reduced academic and prof essional levels of its populations. In this last decade Portugal has implemented a series of educational policies that target on elevating the levels of qualifications of the Portuguese population and positioning it at the same standing of European standards. Within the framework of the implemented policies the varieties of educational and professional methods which enable a range of different routes to regular education stand out greatly. With the main objective of understanding the influence that the choices made by students have on their life projects and future expectations, this research was based on a case study of student population leaving high school in the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon who followed assorted educational routes. The obtained results point to a relation between the chosen educational routes, supported by characterizing variables (number of retentions, school results, perception of the course taken and self -assessment of the learning undertaken) with the life projects and future expec tations of these young people differentiated by dimensions of family structure, qualifications and self -assessment skills.
