Abstract (sommario):

Drawing upon case studies of three organisations operating six call centres in Australia, this thesis explores the manifestations and interplay of employee resistance and accommodation in response to five facets of employer control: electronic monitoring; repetitious work; emotional control; the built environment; and workplace flexibility. Accommodation refers to the ways workers protect themselves from and adapt to the pressures that make up their day-to-day experiences of work. Accommodation, unlike resistance, which implies opposition to control, may superficially resemble consent to control. I argue that resistance and accommodation are not polar opposites; rather they are both reflections of the conflict and tensions that lie at the heart of the employment relationship. At the study sites, employees utilised resistance and accommodation both separately and concurrently. An explanation of these seemingly contradictory responses and of the links among accommodation individual resistance and collective resistance lies in the concept of ???self???. In this thesis, ???self??? refers to workers??? perceptions of fairness, dignity and autonomy. I examine how these notions frame worker discontent and promote employee solidarity. ???Everyday resistance???, a concept first developed by Scott (1985) in relation to peasant struggles, is employed to highlight the existence of subterranean struggles in workplaces that otherwise appear to be harmonious. At the study sites, everyday resistance was a multi-faceted, widely employed strategy whose strength lay primarily in its immediate impact. There was, however, no necessary sequential development from accommodation, through everyday resistance to overt, formal forms of conflict. What was evident was that multiple responses to employer control could co-exist and inhibit or promote one another. But it was through organised collective resistance that more formalised gains were made and widely held grievances addressed. I suggest that, although everyday resistance may lay the groundwork for more formal struggles, one should not conclude that traditional collective resistance is ???genuine??? resistance and everyday resistance is simply a second-best prelude to it. Although conflict is always present, its intensity differs. If we are to understand the complexity of worker responses to managerial control, we need to expand the theoretical frameworks within which we analyse and interpret conflict.

Abstract (sommario):

The current investigation was an examination of the repetition-to-repetition magnitudes and changes in kinetic and kinematic characteristics of the back squat using accentuated eccentric loading (AEL) and cluster sets. Trained male subjects (age = 26.1 ± 4.1 years, height = 183.5 ± 4.3 cm, body mass = 92.5 ± 10.5 kg, back squat to body mass ratio = 1.8 ± 0.3) completed four load condition sessions, each consisting of three sets of five repetitions of either traditionally loaded straight sets (TL), traditionally loaded cluster sets (TLC), AEL cluster sets (AEC), and AEL straight sets where only the initial repetition had eccentric overload (AEL1). Eccentric overload was applied using weight releasers, creating a total eccentric load equivalent to 105% of concentric one repetition maximum (1RM). Concentric load was 80% 1RM for all load conditions. Using straight sets (TL and AEL1) tended to decrease peak power (PP) (d = −1.90 to −0.76), concentric rate of force development (RFDCON) (d = −1.59 to −0.27), and average velocity (MV) (d = −3.91 to −1.29), with moderate decreases in MV using cluster sets (d= −0.81 to −0.62). Greater magnitude eccentric rate of force development (RFDECC) was observed using AEC at repetition three (R3) and five (R5) compared to all load conditions (d = 0.21–0.65). Large within-condition changes in RFDECC from repetition one to repetition three (∆REP1–3) were present using AEL1 (d = 1.51), demonstrating that RFDECC remained elevated for at least three repetitions despite overload only present on the initial repetition. Overall, cluster sets appear to permit higher magnitude and improved maintenance of concentric outputs throughout a set. Eccentric overload with the loading protocol used in the current study does not appear to potentiate concentric output regardless of set configuration but may cause greater RFDECCcompared to traditional loading

Abstract (sommario):

Dans ce document, nous étudions l’évitabilité de différentes formes de répétitions dans les mots. En particulier 3 des 6 chapitres sont dédiés aux répétitions abéliennes en lien notamment avec deux questions d’Erdős de 1957 et 1961. Nous commençons par montrer qu’il existe un algorithme décidant, sous certaines conditions, si un mot morphique évite des puissances abéliennes. Cet algorithme élargit la classe sur laquelle les précédents algorithmes pouvaient décider. Une généralisation de cet algorithme nous permet de montrer que les longs carrés abéliens sont évitables sur l’alphabet ternaire et que les carrés additifs sont évitables sur Z2 . Le premier résultat répond à une question ouverte de Mäkelä datant de 2003 alors que le deuxième rappelle la question ouverte de 1994 concernant l’évitabilité des carrés additifs sur Z.Une autre généralisation de notre algorithme permet d’étudier l’évitabilité des motifs au sens abélien. Nous montrons que les motifs binaires de longueur supérieure à 14 sont évitables sur l’alphabet binaire, améliorant la précédente borne de 118.Nous donnons des conditions suffisantes pour qu’un morphisme soit sans longues puissances nème k-abéliennes. Ce résultat nous permet de calculer, pour tout k ≥ 3, le nombre minimum de carrés k-abéliens qu’un mot binaire infini doit contenir en facteur. Il permet aussi de montrer que les longs carrés 2-abéliens sont évitables sur l’alphabet binaire et qu’il existe un mot ternaire qui ne contient qu’un seul carré 2-abélien en tant que facteur.Enfin, nous proposons une classification complète des formules binaires en fonction de la taille d’alphabet qu’il faut pour les éviter et du taux de croissance (exponentiel ou polynomial) du langage les évitant In this document, we study the avoidability of different kind of repetitions in words. We firstshow that under some conditions one can decide whether a morphic word avoids abelian n-thpowers. This algorithm can decide over a wider class of morphism than the previousalgorithms. We generalize this algorithm and use it to show that long abelian squares areavoidable over the ternary alphabet and that additive squares are avoidable over Z2 . The firstresult answers a weak version of a question formulated by Mäkelä in 2003 and the second oneis related to an open question from 1994 about the avoidability of additive squares over Z.Another generalization of this algorithm can be used to study avoidability of patterns in theabelian sense. In particular, we show that binary patterns of length more than 14 areavoidable over the binary alphabet in the abelian sense. This improves considerably theprevious bound of 118.We give sufficient conditions for a morphism to be long k-abelian n-th power-free. This resultallows us to compute for every k ≥ 3 the number of different k-abelian squares that a binaryword must contain. We prove that long 2-abelian squares are avoidable over the binaryalphabet and that over the ternary alphabet there exists a word that contains only one 2-abelian square.We also give a complete classification of binary formulas based on the size of the smallestalphabet over which they are avoidable and on the growth (exponential or polynomial) of theassociated language

Abstract (sommario):

Purpose: The purpose of our investigation was to compare repetition maximum (RM) to relative intensity using sets and repetitions (RISR) resistance training (RT) on measures of training load, vertical jump, and force production in well-trained lifters. Methods: Fifteen well-trained (isometric peak force= 4403.61+664.69 N, mean+SD) males underwent RT 3 d·wk-1 for 10-weeks in either an RM group (n=8) or RISR group (n=7). Weeks 8-10 consisted of a tapering period for both groups. The RM group achieved a relative maximum each day while the RISRgroup trained based on percentages. Testing at five time-points included unweighted ( Results: Moderate between-group effect sizes were observed for all SJ and CMJ conditions supporting the RISR group (g=0.76-1.07). A small between-group effect size supported RISR for allometrically-scaled isometric peak force (g=0.20). Large and moderate between-group effect sizes supported RISR for rate of force development from 0-50ms (g=1.25) and 0-100ms (g=0.89). Weekly volume load displacement was not different between groups (p>0.05), however training strain was statistically greater in the RM group (p<0.05). Conclusions: Overall, this study demonstrated that RISR training yielded greater improvements in vertical jump, rate of force development, and maximal strength compared to RM training, which may partly be explained by differences in the imposed training stress and the use of failure/non-failure training in a well-trained population.

Abstract (sommario):

Repetitive and forceful exertions have been dentified as an important risk factor for occupational injuries. One method used to determine appropriate exposures to these and other risk factors is psychophysics, which is based on individual perceptions of task demands and/or risk. Effects of work exposure have been indicated as of potential importance, but have not been well studied. Indications from an earlier study related to psychophysical limits for a repetitive manual torquing task were that five days of work conditioning had minimal effects on resulting Maximum Acceptable Repetition Rates (MARR). However, it is unknown whether and how longer work exposure durations might influence MARRs. The current study investigated the effects of work exposure on MARR and adjustment time over 10 working days (two weeks) with two days of rest after five days. Ten participants (five males and five females) performed a manual torquing (45 Nm load) task at mid-chest level in the coronal plane for a one hour test session. Starting repetition rate for each participant was set at single high and low rate on alternate days. Temporal (exposure) effects were determined, where day of exposure was the independent variable, and MARR and adjustment time were the dependent variables. Final MARRs were relatively lower during the first few exposure days (14 - 15 repetitions/min) and increased for days 5 - 7 (16 - 18 repetitions/min). On average participants made four adjustments to reach MARR . Day was not found to significantly affect MARR, though week affected both MARR and adjustment time. Thus, an exposure of two weeks may be needed to obtain stable and valid psychophysical limits for manual torquing and, perhaps, related tasks. Master of Science

Abstract (sommario):

The purpose of the study was to compare the physiological responses of skeletal muscle to a resistance training (RT) program using repetition maximum (RM) or relative intensity (RISR). Fifteen well-trained males underwent RT 3 d·wk−1 for 10 weeks in either an RM group (n = 8) or RISR group (n = 7). The RM group achieved a relative maximum each day, while the RISR group trained based on percentages. The RM group exercised until muscular failure on each exercise, while the RISR group did not reach muscular failure throughout the intervention. Percutaneous needle biopsies of the vastus lateralis were obtained pre-post the training intervention, along with ultrasonography measures. Dependent variables were: Fiber type-specific cross-sectional area (CSA); anatomical CSA (ACSA); muscle thickness (MT); mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR); adenosine monophosphate protein kinase (AMPK); and myosin heavy chains (MHC) specific for type I (MHC1), type IIA (MHC2A), and type IIX (MHC2X). Mixed-design analysis of variance and effect size using Hedge’s g were used to assess within- and between-group alterations. RISR statistically increased type I CSA (p = 0.018, g = 0.56), type II CSA (p = 0.012, g = 0.81), ACSA (p = 0.002, g = 0.53), and MT (p < 0.001, g = 1.47). RISR also yielded a significant mTOR reduction (p = 0.031, g = −1.40). Conversely, RM statistically increased only MT (p = 0.003, g = 0.80). Between-group effect sizes supported RISR for type I CSA (g = 0.48), type II CSA (g = 0.50), ACSA (g = 1.03), MT (g = 0.72), MHC2X (g = 0.31), MHC2A (g = 0.87), and MHC1 (g = 0.59); with all other effects being of trivial magnitude (g < 0.20). Our results demonstrated greater adaptations in fiber size, whole-muscle size, and several key contractile proteins when using RISR compared to RM loading paradigms.

Abstract (sommario):

The purpose of this research note was to examine whether relationships existed between anthropometrics (body mass, body fat percentage [BF%], and femur length) and descriptive characteristics (age and sex) with repetitions performed to failure at 70% of 1 repetition maximum (1RM) in the back squat. Fifty-eight subjects (males = 43, females = 15; age: 23 +/- 3 years, training age: 5.5 +/- 2.5 years, body mass: 80.65 +/- 16.34 kg, BF%: 10.98 +/- 3.53%, and femur length: 47.1 +/- 2.6 cm) completed a 1RM squat followed by one set to failure at 70% of 1RM. Total repetitions performed at 70% of 1RM were 14 +/- 4 (range: 6-26). Bivariate correlations showed significant inverse relationships between body mass (r = -0.352, p = 0.003), BF% (r = -0.278, p = 0.014), and femur length (r = -0.265, p = 0.019), with repetitions performed. No significant relationships existed between age and sex (p > 0.05), with repetitions performed. All these variables entered into a standard multivariate regression. The model R2 was 0.200, and body mass had the largest influence (p = 0.057) because relative importance analysis demonstrated body mass to contribute to 43.87% of the variance (of the R2) in repetitions performed. No other variable was significant or approached significance (p > 0.05). Our results reveal that body mass, BF%, and femur length all are inversely related to repetitions performed at 70% of 1RM in the back squat.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis is concerned with current debate about alternative 'lexical' and 'episodic' accounts of repetition priming in visual word perception. Like some previous research, the present study investigated effects of 'context congruence' of pre-test and test word presentations. However, modified methods were employed to limit methodoligical problems observed in previous research and to treat the issue of strategic control in repetition priming. The experiments investigated the effect of test orienting tasks which either did or did not require subjects to engage in deliberate remembering of pre-test context. A recognition-memory orienting task was employed to induce deliberate remembering and a letter-judgement orienting task was employed to avert deliberate remembering. Experiment 1 demonstrated a strong effect of orienting tasks in a naming task; repetition priming was reliably greater in the recognition-memory condition. The effect was replicated in a 'restricted' tachistoscopic identification task in Experiment 2, suggesting that the locus of the effect was within processes integral to word identification. Experiment 3 showed that the effect could not be attributed to an inadvertent masking of repetition priming in the letter-judgement conditions, or to be manipulation of subjects' prior knowledge of repetitions. Although these results provide new evidence of episodic memory coding in repetition priming, it can be argued that they do not necessarily imply that all repetition effects depend upon episodic memory coding. The remembering-enhanced repetition effect might reflect the superimposition of an exceptional autobiographical-memory repetition effect upon a normal lexical repetition effect. To test this possibility, Experiments 4 through 7 tested for evidence of dual memory components as a functional dissociation between normal and remembering-enhanced repetition effects. No evidence of a dissociation was found for the following expprimental manipulations: (1) modality of pre-test word presentation, (2) word frequency, (3) subjects' confidence criteria for word naming, (4) 'level of processing' of pre-test words. The discussion considers theoretical and methodological implications, and reviews some related research. The main conclusion suggests that the findings of this thesis are consistent with the assumption of a unitary episodic memory system underlying repetition priming and other phenomena of learning and memory, and that the findings pose some problems for alternative accounts.

Abstract (sommario):

Repetitions in child-directed speech (CDS) have been shown to vary over time, and are suggested to affect first language acquisition. Correlations between verbal contents of repetitions in CDS and children’s language development have been suggested. The verbal contents of repetitions in Swedish CDS have not yet been investigated. The aim of this study was to examine the verbal contents of repetitions in Swedish CDS during the child’s first 2 years and possible changes in proportions of repetitions during the same time span. Verbal contents of repetitions in parents’ speech in 10 parent-child dyads as the children were 3, 6, 9, 12 and 24 months old were investigated focusing on word classes, sentence types and whole-constituent change. The results were compared to the children’s productive vocabularies at the age of 30 months. Possible occurrences of item-based constructions and frequent frames in the repetitions were also examined. The overall results revealed patterns concerning change in verbal contents in repetitions over time and correlations between verbal contents in repetitions and child language development. Two proposals were made: parents adjust the complexity of their speech to linguistic developmental stages of their children, and linguistic variation in the input increases as the child grows older. Repetitioner i barnriktat tal (BRT) har visat sig variera över tid, och har föreslagits påverka förstaspåksinlärning. Även ett samband mellan det verbala innehållet i repetitioner i BRT och barns språkutveckling har föreslagits. Det verbala innehållet i repetitioner i svenskt BRT har inte undersökts tidigare. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka det verbala innehållet i repetitioner i svenskt BRT under barnets två första år och möjliga förändringar gällande andelen repetitioner under samma tidsperiod. Det verbala innehållet i repetitioner i föräldrars tal hos tio förälder-barn-dyader då barnen var 3, 6, 9, 12 och 24 månader gamla undersöktes med fokus på ordklasser, satstyper och förändringar gällande konstituenter. Resultaten jämfördes med barnens produktiva ordförråd vid 30 månaders ålder. Även den möjliga förekomsten av typbaserade konstruktioner (item-based constructions) och frekventa ramar (frequent frames) undersöktes. De övergripande resultaten uppvisade mönster gällande förändringar inom det verbala innehållet i repetitioner över tid samt ett samband mellan det verbala innehållet i repetitioner och barns språkutveckling. Två antaganden gjordes: föräldrar justerar komplexiteten i sitt tal efter språkliga utvecklingsfaser hos sina barn, och den språkliga variationen i inputen ökar med barnets ålder.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Because of the variety of his output, many of Valle-Inclan's works have been studied in isolation, or in selective, often arbitrary categories, rather than as pieces of a whole. The aim of this thesis is to consider the elements that provide significant links in his writing between 1889 and 1922, and to demonstrate that works that are apparently unrelated are part of a larger picture. From early articles and short stories, through novels, to the emergence of theatre, the repetition of themes and motifs, of characters and of stylistic devices, reveals an underlying interdependence between works that on the surface appear unconnected or even contradictory. This is especially true of those works that appeared during the first three decades of Valle's literary career, most of which share the common backdrop of Galicia. Despite changes in perspective and moves from one genre to another, there are constants that relate individual works to those that precede and follow, creating a unifying pattern of continuity. Many of these features have been the subject of critical studies on Valle-Inclan, but to date there has been no comprehensive review of the connecting factors within his Galician works. This thesis aims to explore the links that give unity to this period, from the very earliest short stories through to the culmination of Valle's Galician theatre.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis investigated visual word recognition in bilinguals and monolinguals through the effects of word frequency, lexicality and repetition. The first series of experiments focused on whether bilinguals can suppress lexical access in a non-target language and the role of task demands in L1 and L2 lexical access. The next series of experiments further investigated the role of task demands, list composition and repetition in monolinguals. The ERP data show, for the first time, that in bilinguals, lexical access occurs in the non-target language, supporting the notion of a nonselective lexical access. Delayed lexicality effects in ERPs for L2 compared to L1 suggested a delay in lexical access for L2 in late bilinguals, although behavioural data showed a similar word frequency effect to L1. These conflicting responses have not been anticipated by current models of bilingual visual word recognition. However, monolingual data make clear that lexical effects can be modulated by task demands and list composition in behavioural responses. In monolinguals, the slower processing of less familiar items was enhanced by item repetition only when the task required a lexical decision and words and word-like letter strings were presented. Lastly, this thesis has demonstrated that current models of visual word recognition have not fully implemented these elements and have not predicted response times distribution or ERPs. Future models of visual word recognition should incorporate these elements to be able to characterise lexical access in bilinguals and monolinguals.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis investigated the role of phonological short-term memory (PSTM) in the long-term learning of new phonological word-forms. Previous studies using the paired-associate paradigm have suggested that the learning of unfamiliar material is mediated by PSTM (e.g. Papagno & Vallar, 1992). The first aim was to replicate and extend this previous work. The second aim was to determine whether the Hebb repetition paradigm could provide an alternative method with which to investigate the role of PSTM in new word-form learning. Seven experiments were conducted to explore these aims. Experiment 1 obtained phonological similarity effects for words and nonwords in an immediate serial recall task, confirming that. the chosen manipulation of phonological similarity was adequate. Experiments 2 and 3. adopted the paired-associate task and replicated Papagno and Vallar (1992), thus extending their results to English participants and materials. Phonological similarity was shown to selectively disrupt the learning of nonword pairs. In contrast, some evidence was found to suggest that phonological similarity fails to affect the learning of word pairs. However, Experiment 3 showed that the detrimental effect of phonological similarity was restricted to an intermediate phase of learning. These findings suggest that PSTM mediates the learning of unfamiliar material, although the role of PSTM may change during the course of learning; Experiments 4 and 6 adopted the Hebb repetition task and generated patterns of results consistent with Papagno and Vallar (1992) and Experiments 2 and 3. Phonological similarity disrupted the learning of nonword sequences, but not the learning of word sequences. These findings suggest that PSTM mediates sequence learning for unfamiliar material, thereby providing initia~ evidence that the Hebb repetition paradigm may be a possible analogue of new word-form learning. The role qf PSTM in nonword sequence learning could not be reliably assessed in Experiments 5 and 7 due to the absence of reliable Hebb Effects. Analyses of between-trial learning and forgetting rates using a Markov model revealed that phonological similarity had a negative impact on forgetting rates for nonwords in both paired-associate and Hebb repetition paradigms, suggesting that phonological representations of non-words are particularly fragile. Finally, it is proposed that the paired-associate paradigm represents a closer analogue of new word-form learning than the Hebb repetition paradigm as it makes use of existing lexical-semantic information.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

How many times do children learning to read need to see printed words for the words to be reliably recognised? Reitsma (1983) demonstrated that Dutch children who had made average reading progress for six months could read words they had seen as few as four times significantly faster than similar unfamiliar words. This research has been quoted widely as suggesting that children learning to read English need similar level of exposures to learn unfamiliar vocabulary. To investigate this claim, a small group of English Year 1 children were assessed on words they had encountered varying numbers of times in books used to teach them to read. In addition to investigating whether four repetitions were sufficient for a variety of words, the vocabulary was analysed to evaluate the relative level of repetitions required for children to reliably recognise words varying in decodability, word class and morphemic complexity. The overall sample of words needed to appear in books more than 15 times for reliable recognition. Words children could decode required significantly fewer repetitions than those beyond their decoding ability. No significant differences were found for repetitions needed by words varying in word class or morphemic complexity. Decodable words, out of all the categories analysed, were those requiring the fewest repetitions, reliable recognition being attained within the band from 4 to 15 occurrences, and might therefore be considered as candidates for ‘spongelike acquisition’. Non-decodable words, however, did not attain reliable recognition until repetitions exceeded 40, confirming in an indirect manner the critical importance of decoding skills for children’s reading development. Repetition of vocabulary, though, a neglected factor in research, appears to be equally essential, and the results of this small pilot study seem to warrant a larger-scale investigation. Above all, what this study has shown is that, for at least some children and some types of word, acquisition is not ‘spongelike’.

Abstract (sommario):

Syftet med denna studie att belysa framgångsrikt pedagogiskt arbete för elever medspråkstörning. Vi använde oss av en kvalitativ metod för att ta reda på detta. Vi använde ossav intervjuer och observationer. Vi observerade tre olika lektioner, lärmiljön på tre olikaskolor och en förskola och vi intervjuade sex pedagoger som arbetar med barn medspråkstörning. Vi analyserade materialet genom tematisk analys. De teman vi sågkategoriserades. Kategorierna utgick ifrån vad forskningen säger är framgångsfaktorer ochsom var relevanta utifrån vårt syfte. Lärmiljön i de olika skolorna och förskolan skiljde sig endel, men det fanns även vissa likheter som att man hade tillgång till grupprum. Allapedagoger uppgav att struktur, rutiner och användandet av bildstöd var en framgångsfaktor.Vi fann även att man behövde arbeta med kortare lektioner och mer variation iundervisningen och att man som pedagog behövde ge eleverna förförståelse och repeteramer. Vikten av goda relationer framhölls också.

Abstract (sommario):

Physical Therapy Ph.D. The National Occupational Research Agenda stresses the importance of identifying work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WMSD) risk factors, understanding their exposure dependent nature, and identifying strategies to reduce their incidence and severity. We first examined behavioral changes after exposure to a low repetition low force (LRLF) reaching task for 12 weeks in young rats. We observed increased movement reversals in LRLF - week 8, indicative of a decline in fine motor control, and a small decrease in voluntary task participation in LRLF - week 12, compared to controls. This decline was associated temporally with a low-grade increase of macrophages in peripheral nerve and distal forelimb bones that correlated with nociceptive neurochemical increases in the spinal cord. We next examined motor behavior changes in young rats exposed to either a food retrieval high repetition negligible force (HRNF) task or a lever pulling high repetition low force (HRLF) reaching task. We found that both tasks led to motor declines, with more marked declines in fine motor control in the HRNF group. Thus, repetition, rather than the difference in force magnitude between the 2 tasks, appears to be the key factor in the induction of motor declines associated with repetitive motion injuries (RMIs). Also, these findings indicate that activities involving negligible force do not necessarily pose a lower risk than activities involving low force. Factors such as fine motor coordination requirements may even pose greater risks. Also, compared to the LRLF task, the high repetition tasks resulted in more motor performance declines, thus confirming exposure-dependency in the context of RMI. We also explored the effects of HRNF and HRLF tasks on supraspinatus tendon of young adult rats in 6 and 12 weeks. We found a small but non-significant elevation of ED1+ macrophages in 6 weeks. The supraspinatus tendon does not appear to develop as many pathological changes as forelimb flexor tendons (Barbe, et al., 2003) with task performance. Lastly, we examined the effects of performing HRLF tasks in aged rats. We found that aged rats demonstrate both declines in motor performance and pathological tissue changes over the course of 12 weeks of exposure to the HRLF lever pulling task. The observed declines in grip strength in aged trained control and HRLF rats over time suggest that both age and cumulative exposure to the repetitive task are factors in the development of WMSDs. Our findings suggest that additional study of exposure-dependency and risk factors is warranted. Deeper understanding of the relative contributions of various risk factors can help inform prophylactic programs and/or interventions for individuals who are at risk for, or suffer from, WMSDs.

Abstract (sommario):

The current study tested the effects of a cognitive defusion intervention on implicit attitudes toward milk and lemon as measured by the Implicit Relational Assessment Procedure (IRAP). One-hundred and eleven participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions: control math, control defusion, half defusion, or full defusion. Participants filled out a series of self-report measures at the beginning of the study on psychological functioning, as well as attitudes toward milk and lemon. Participants then completed a task specific to their condition, with control math participants completing a simple math task while defusion conditions completed a defusion intervention – word repetition technique (WRT) – for certain words. The control defusion condition completed the WRT for the words “car” and “rabbit,” the half defusion condition completed the WRT for the word “milk,” and the full defusion condition completed the WRT for the words “milk” and “lemon.” After completing the condition specific tasks, all participants completed a milk/lemon IRAP that included the words “milk” and “lemon” and pictures of milk and lemon. All participants finished the study by completing a final set of self-report measures. Results of the study indicated that IRAP performance was not significantly different between conditions following various levels of a defusion intervention. However, results showed that the pattern of IRAP response latencies did significantly vary between conditions, but this effect was driven by a significant difference on a single response latency between two conditions suggesting this finding is an artifact. Thus, the current study cannot conclude that a defusion intervention can significantly affect implicit attitudes towards common objects, and any future research should consider applying a defusion intervention to clinically relevant stimuli to further assess for defusion effects in the IRAP.

Abstract (sommario):

To address the needs of the growing number of Spanish-English bilingual children in the United States, Nonword Repetition (NWR) tasks were created to reduce testing bias in the assessment and diagnosis of children with developmental language disorder (DLD). Several studies have shown promising results in the use of NWR tasks; however, fewer studies have addressed questions such as the use of different scoring methods or analyzing error patterns. Thus, this study was conducted to address these gaps in the research. An English and a Spanish NWR task were administered to 26 Spanish-English bilingual school aged children (6;0-9;4). Two different scoring methods (percent phoneme correct and whole word scoring) were compared for diagnostic accuracy and the types and frequency of errors were analyzed. Both scoring methods showed statistically significant differences between groups (participants with DLD and those with typically developing language). Whole word scoring in Spanish had the best diagnostic accuracy, according to sensitivity, specificity, and likelihood ratio measures. However, due to the small number of nonwords that any participant repeated correctly, this may not be a clinically practical scoring method. The Spanish NWR task was a better measure than the English NWR task in identifying children with DLD, suggesting that Spanish NWR could be used to assess DLD in bilingual children. Participants with DLD produced more consonant, vowel, substitution, and omission errors than those with typically developing language. There was no difference between groups for addition errors. Significantly more omission errors were made in Spanish, likely due to the longer nonwords. The longer nonwords may be key in distinguishing between typically developing children and those with DLD. These results have the potential to inform future clinical practices in selecting, scoring, and analyzing NWR tasks.

Abstract (sommario):

O presente estudo avalia a associação entre estresse no trabalho e auto-relato de diagnóstico médico de lesão por esforço repetitivo (LER). Trata-se de um estudo seccional, inserido no Estudo Pró-Saúde, que consiste no acompanhamento de uma coorte de funcionários técnico-administrativos de uma universidade no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Os dados foram obtidos, no ano de 2001, a partir da aplicação de um questionário auto-preenchível. A população de estudo constou de 3.314 funcionários, dentre os quais, 485 apresentaram auto-relato de diagnóstico médico de LER, após sua admissão como funcionários da universidade. A prevalência de LER foi maior entre as mulheres (19,4%) do que entre os homens (8,8%). O estresse no trabalho foi avaliado através da versão reduzida do Job Content Questionnaire, desenvolvido por Karasek e Theorell, cujas questões se destinam a avaliar a demanda psicológica, o controle sobre o próprio trabalho e, o apoio social no trabalho. A análise do estresse no trabalho foi realizada de acordo com os quadrantes propostos por Karasek (1979): baixa exigência (baixa demanda e alto controle); trabalho passivo (baixa demanda e baixo controle); alta exigência (alta demanda e baixo controle) e; trabalho ativo (alta demanda e alto controle). Nesta análise, utilizou-se como categoria de referência, a baixa exigência, por compor um cenário ideal de trabalho. Após ajuste por variáveis socioeconômicas e demográficas (idade, escolaridade e renda familiar per capita) e, ocupacionais (anos de trabalho na universidade e ocupação), homens e mulheres com alta exigência no trabalho, apresentaram uma chance maior de serem acometidos por LER (homens: OR= 1,88; IC95% 1,07-3,29 e mulheres: OR= 1,90; IC95% 1,32-2,02). No ajuste adicional pelo apoio social no trabalho, houve redução da força da associação, para ambos os sexos. Para as mulheres com alta exigência no trabalho, esta associação manteve-se significativa (OR= 1,63; IC95%= 1,12-2,37); enquanto que para os homens, esta associação ficou marginalmente significante (OR= 1,62; IC95%= 0,91-2,87). Este estudo reforça que o desequilíbrio entre a demanda psicológica no trabalho e o controle sobre o próprio trabalho é importante na ocorrência de LER e, portanto, pode ser útil na elaboração de medidas preventivas desse crescente problema de sáude pública. Espera-se que as hipóteses geradas neste estudo possam ser testadas em novas investigações que incorporem o desenho longitudinal, como o Estudo Pró-Saúde, no qual este se insere. The study evaluates the association between job strain and self-reported medical diagnosis of repetitive strain injury (RSI). This is a cross-sectional study, included in the Pro-Saude Study, which consists of tracking a cohort of technical and administrative employees of a university in the State of Rio de Janeiro. The data were obtained in 2001 from the application of a self-administered questionnaire. The study population consisted of 3314 employees, among which 485 were self-reported medical diagnosis of RSI, after this admission to university. The prevalence of RSI was higther among women (19.4%) than amog men (8.8%). Job strain was assessed by the shortened version of Job Content Questionnaire, developed by Karasek and Theorell, whose questions are intended to assess the psychological demands, control over work, and social support. The analysis of job strain was performed according to the quadrants proposed by Karasek (1979): low strain (low demand and high control), passive job (low demand and low control), high strain (high demand and low control) and, active job (high demand and high control). In this analysis, was used as the reference category, the low strain, an ideal setting for composing work. After adjusting for socioeconomic and demographic variables (age, education and family income per capita) and occupational (years work and occupation), men and women with high demands at work were more likely to be affected by RSI (men : OR = 1.88, 95% CI 1.07; 3.29 and women: OR = 1.90, 95% CI 1.32; 2.02). In additional adjustment for social support at work, a reduction in strength of association for both sexes was founded. For women at high strain at work, this association remained significant (OR = 1.63, 95% CI 1.12 to 2.37), while for men, this association was marginally significant (OR = 1, 62, 95% CI 0.91 to 2.87). This study reinforces that the imbalance between job psycological demands and job control is important in the occurrence of RSI and therefore may be useful in developing preventive measures of this growing problem of public health. It is expected that the hypoteses generated in this study can be tested in further investigations that include the longitudinal design, as the Pro-Saude Study, in which it falls.

Abstract (sommario):

Objetivo: analisar a organização do trabalho no desenvolvimento das Lesões por Esforços Repetitivos/ Distúrbios Osteomusculares Relacionados ao Trabalho - LER/DORT, em taquígrafos de ambos os sexos, de duas Casas Parlamentares na região metropolitana de São Paulo. Método: estudo qualitativo; os instrumentos de coleta utilizados foram: entrevista individual, observação do trabalho e questionário de saúde e trabalho, composto de questões de identificação, estilo de vida, dados ocupacionais e de morbidade e o Questionário Nórdico de Sintomas Osteomusculares. Resultados: Identificaram-se fatores biomecânicos como prováveis causas de LER/DORT, tais como: manutenção de postura estática e movimentos repetitivos de digitação / manuseio de gravador; e aspectos da organização do trabalho, como por exemplo: divisão de tarefas por ciclos de tempo, pessoal reduzido, horários e pausas irregulares. Os taquígrafos relataram: exigências física, cognitiva, sensorial e psicológica do treinamento/ trabalho, pressão temporal, receio de errar, sobrecarga de trabalho nos períodos de pico e desgaste motivado pela disponibilidade integral de horários. Os trabalhadores identificaram como causas de LER/DORT: as dimensões temporal, ambiental, e da ação do trabalho, bem como aspectos individuais e condições fora do trabalho. Conclusões: (a) A taquigrafia parlamentar caracteriza-se pela fragmentação das tarefas, ritmo imposto e prazos rígidos, semelhante a uma linha de montagem; (b) aspectos da organização do trabalho podem influenciar a sobrecarga biomecânica e o aumento no tempo de exposição ao risco para LER/DORT entre taquígrafos; (c) para serem eficazes, medidas preventivas devem considerar os aspectos biomecânicos, bem como as características da organização do trabalho e a participação dos trabalhadores. Objective: to analyze some of the relevant aspects of work organization in the development of Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders- WRMSD among male and female shorthand typists, in two parliamentary institutions in the metropolitan area of the city of São Paulo. Method: qualitative study; the instruments used to collect data have been: individual interview, observation of the work and questionnaire of health and work, composed of identification, occupational and morbidity questions and the Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire. Results: Biomechanical factors such as the maintenance of static posture and the repetitive movements of typing / handling the voice recorder have been identified as probable WRMSD causes; as well as some aspects of work organization, such as: task division in time cycles, reduced staff, irregular schedules and breaks. The shorthand typists have spoken about: physical, cognitive, sensorial and psychological requirements of training/work, time pressure, fear of making mistakes, work overload in rush periods and strain caused by the full-time availability schedule. The workers have come up with WRMSK causes: time, environmental and action dimensions of their work, as well as individual aspects and extra-work conditions. Conclusions: (a) The parliamentary shorthand typing work is characterized by divided tasks, rigid work rhythm and deadlines, like a factory assembly-line; (b) several elements of work organization may influence the biomechanical overload and it may also increase the exposure to WRMSD risk among shorthand typists; (c) effective preventive measures must consider the biomechanical elements, as well as the aspects of organization of the work and workers participation.

Abstract (sommario):

O objetivo da presente pesquisa foi identificar a ocorrência de Lesão por Esforço Repetitivo (LER) em Cirurgiões Dentistas (CDs) e os meios de prevenção e tratamento adotados. Trata-se de um estudo transversal com 127 CDs associados à Associação Paulista de Cirurgiões Dentistas/Regional de Ribeirão Preto (APCD/RP). Foi utilizado um questionário auto-aplicável abordando as temáticas relevantes para a identificação e compreensão do objeto de estudo. A amostra foi dividida em dois grupos, sendo o Grupo A composto por CDs acometidos por LER (48,05%) e o Grupo B pelos não acometidos (51,95%). Encontrou-se como região mais acometida pela LER, os ombros (27,8%), seguida pelas mãos (24,6%), quanto ao sexo houve predominância do feminino com 77%, e a especialidade onde mais ocorreu adoecimento foi a endodontia, com 70% dos endodontistas. Em relação às informações que os CDs têm à respeito da LER assim como da relação das práticas de atividade de trabalho desenvolvidas na Odontologia e o adoecimento por LER, observou-se que o profissional ainda desconhece a doença e sua relação com o exercício profissional, fator determinante para adotar práticas de prevenção. Os tratamentos adotados pelos CDs acometidos pela doença são em ordem decrescente, medicamentoso, fisioterápico, acupuntura e por práticas alternativas. Os resultados deste estudo confirmam e reforçam a necessidade de novas pesquisas e subsidiarão a elaboração de um manual de prevenção que será distribuído gratuitamente aos profissionais. This study aimed to identify the occurrence of Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) in dental surgeons and what means of prevention and treatment were adopted. We carried out a cross-sectional study, involving 127 dental surgeons (DS) associated to a regional association of dental surgeons (APCD/RP). A self-applied questionnaire was used, addressing relevant themes to identify and understand the study object. The sample was divided in 2 groups: Group A (48.05%) consisted of DS affected by RSI and Group B (51.95%) of professionals who were not. The most affected area was the shoulders (27.8%), followed by the hands (24.6%). RSI mainly attacked female professionals (77%) and endodontists (70%). As to the DS information about RSI and about the relation between dentistry activities and the disease, we found that these professionals are still unaware of RSI and its relation with professional activities, which would be a determinant factor to adopt preventive measures. Affected DS adopted the following treatments, in decreasing order: medication, physiotherapy, acupuncture and alternative practices. These results confirm and reinforce the need for further studies and will serve as foundations for the elaboration of a manual, to be distributed freely among these professionals.

Therefore, we analyzed the data for 71 workplaces in the productive area of a shoe company which are characterized by having a defined task cycle, and had the index of exposure to WMSD upper limbs calculated through the OCRA method. Data analysis was accomplished using the exploratory data analysis of WMSD and construction of a Generalized Linear Model (GLM). This model identified the factors that influence the rate of exposure the most and made it possible to quantify the possible chance of raising this index when risk factors are present in the workplaces. The factor indicated as the most influential one was the "sudden movements" factor, the presence of this factor increases the chance of raising the level of exposure in 2.12 times more than when this factor is not present.

Abstract (sommario):

Os Distúrbios Osteomusculares Relacionados ao Trabalho (DORT) acometem a saúde do trabalhador, desde a década de 90, gerando ocorrências num grande número de pessoas, em diferentes países e diversas atividades, sendo um dos casos mais evidenciados no contexto ocupacional. Trabalhadores sujeitos a cargas de trabalho semelhantes, que desempenham a mesma atividade, podem apresentar variações significativas no seu estado de saúde relacionado ao trabalho. Uma forma eficaz de reduzir o número de casos de DORT é a prevenção, que só se torna efetiva se for participativa e abrangente e se minimizar os fatores de risco presentes nas situações de trabalho. O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar a gestão preventiva dos problemas relacionados aos DORT, através de uma abordagem ergonômica estruturada, interpretações, prevalências, tipos de tratamentos ou reabilitações para retorno ao trabalho, bem como avaliar e gerar dispositivos de controle dos problemas relacionados aos DORT em uma indústria cimenteira, baseando-se na estratégia SOBANE, por ser uma estratégia de prevenção que avalia os fatores de risco e permite a interação com os trabalhadores. (excluída a frase sobre limitação do método) Como resultado prático para a empresa foram propostas recomendações através de plano de ação detalhado, de forma a melhorar continuamente as atividades e postos de trabalho, reduzindo os fatores de risco. Work Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (WRMD) affect the health of workers, since the Nineties, generating occurrences in a great number of people, in different countries and several activities, which are being one of expressed cases in the occupational context. Employees subjected to similar loads, performing the same activity, can present significant variations of their state of health work related. An effective way to reduce the number of WRMD cases is the prevention, only becomes effective if it is participative and comprehensive and if it minimizes the risk factors present at the workplace. The purpose of this study was to conduct the preventive management of the problems related to WRMD, through a structural ergonomic approach, interpretation, prevalences, types of treatments or rehabilitation to return to work, as well as generating controls devices of problems related to WRMD in a cement industry, based on SOBANE strategy, to be a prevention strategy which evaluates the risk factors and allows the interaction with employees. On the basis of the findings, recommendations are proposed through a detailed action plan, in order to apply continuous improvement in the work environment, reducing the risk factors.

Abstract (sommario):

Vid flertalet studier har det framkommit att ordförrådets storlek och förmågan till nonordsrepetition påvisar samband med nyordsinlärning. De prosodiska egenskapernas inverkan vid nyordsinlärning är emellertid inte lika studerad. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka hur barn mellan 4:5 och 6:0 år med typisk språkutveckling presterar på nyordsinlärning i relation till ordförråd och repetition av nonord samt att utforska vilken inverkan prosodiska egenskaper har på förmågan till nyordsinlärning. I studien deltog 15 barn vilkas resultat på nyorden, ordförrådstestningen och nonordsrepetitionen uträknades. Nyordsinlärningsuppgiften bestod av sex ord vilka sammankopplades med sex olika föremål. Nyorden matchades i par med avseende på en åtskiljande prosodisk egenskap mellan dem: antingen antal stavelser, betoning eller ordaccent. Inga signifikanta korrelationer mellan nyordsinlärning, ordförråd och nonordsrepetition kunde påvisas. Det framkom dock att korrelationen mellan ålder och nonordsrepetition var nära signifikans och indikerade att ökad ålder gav ett högre resultat på nonordsrepetitionen. Gällande de prosodiska egenskapernas relation till nyordsinlärning upptäcktes en signifikant skillnad i betoningsplacering, nyord med betoning på den finala stavelsen fick högst resultat. Barnen lärde sig också trestaviga ord i större utsträckning än tvåstaviga ord. Studien implicerar att betoning och ordlängd verkar ha viss betydelse för nyordsinlärning i kontrast till ordaccent, medan det inte kan påvisas några föreliggande korrelationer mellan nyordsinlärning, ordförråd och nonordsrepetition. Several studies have shown that vocabulary size and nonword repetition ability correlate with novel word learning. The impact of prosodic features on novel word learning has, however, not been studied extensively. The purpose of this study was to examine how children aged 4:5–6:0 with typical language development perform on novel word learning, vocabulary and nonword repetition and to explore what impact prosodic features have on the ability to learn novel words. The study involved 15 children whose performance on the novel word learning task, vocabulary testing and nonword repetition was calculated. The novel word learning task consisted of six words which were connected to six different items. The novel words were matched in pairs differing by only one prosodic feature: either the number of syllables, stress or tonal word accent. No significant correlations between the novel word learning, vocabulary and nonword repetition were found. However, the correlation between age and nonword repetition reached near significance, which indicated that increased age gave a higher result on the nonword repetition. Regarding how the prosodic features related to the novel word learning, a significant difference between stress placements was detected. Novel words with stress on the final syllable were easier to learn. The children also achieved a higher result on the three syllable words than the two syllable words. The study implies that stress and word length seem to play a somewhat important role for novel word learning in contrast to tonal word accent, while it appears to be no relation between novel word learning, vocabulary and nonword repetition.

Estes dados superam as estimativas da OMS (Organização Mundial de Saúde) que, em 1981, apontavam 10% das pessoas com incapacidades na população mundial. A resposta publica ao problema da incapacidade é dada, via Previdência Social, pelos programas de suporte de renda articulados a programas de reabilitação profissional. Dados recentes publicados na imprensa brasileira mostram que os custos sociais anuais com a concessão de benefícios por incapacidade cresceram 260%, no período de 2001 a 2004, passando de R$ 2,5 bilhões para R$ 9 bilhões.Objetivos: O objetivo geral deste estudo é explorar a questão da incapacidade no contexto da reforma previdenciária brasileira dos anos 1990 e seus propósitos de redução do gasto público pela extinção e privatização de serviços sociais.Como objetivos específicos, a descrição das mudanças ocorridas nas práticas de reabilitação profissional do INSS que culminaram com o desmonte da sua rede nacional de serviços, bem como, do processo de incapacitação de trabalhadores demandantes de benefícios por incapacidade da Previdência Social, a partir da própria expressão dos envolvidos, identificando e analisando os aspectos sociais que interagem neste processo. Métodos: Pesquisa documental em documentos institucionais da Previdência Social de 1992 a 1997 para a reconstituição do desmonte dos serviços de reabilitação profissional do INSS e Histórias de vida tópicas de treze trabalhadores incapacitados, complementadas por pesquisas em prontuários. Resultados: (1) Descrição e análise do processo de desmonte dos serviços de reabilitação profissional do INSS como parte das diretrizes políticas da reforma previdenciária brasileira da década de 1990; (2) reconstituição do modelo técnico-assistencial convencional de reabilitação profissional do INSS e (3) apresentação da trajetória de incapacitação de trabalhadores adoecidos por LER/DORT, perfil dos entrevistados e discussão dos aspectos sociais que interagem no agravamento do processo. Conclusões: Estamos às voltas, nos casos de incapacidade crônica, com uma ¿classe-que-vive-de-benefício-da ¿Previdência-Social¿. O processo de reforma da Previdência Social culminou, na prática, com a extinção dos programas de reabilitação profissional e a extinção das carreiras previdenciárias voltadas para o atendimento terapêutico Abstract: Introduction: According to IBGE demographic study in 2000, 14% of the Brazilian population declared to suffer from some sort of disability, which means 25 million people. These figures are above WHO estimates, which stated that 1981 people with disabilities represented 10% of the world¿s population. The public answer to the problem of disability is provided by the Social Security, via income support programs coupled with professional rehabilitation. Recent data published in the Brazilian media show that the annual expenditure with financial support to the disabled grew 260% between 2001 and 2001, going from R$ 2.5 billion to R$ 9 billion. Objective: To reconstruct, through interviews, the disability process of workers suffering from RSI (repeated stress injury) who demand funds from the Social Security Service and took sick leave for prolonged periods, discussing some of the social aspects involved. Method: The life stories of twelve workers with disabilities caused by RSI; The reports by two workers who had an amputation as a result of work-related accidents; Study of the institutional documents from the Social Security Service between 1992 and 1997. Results: (1) reconstruction of the professional rehabilitation project of the INSS, through the 90¿s; (2) creation of a profile of 13 disabled workers on sick leave who receive financial support form the INSS; (3) Narrative of the collective history of disability of workers due to IRS; and (4) description of the changes in the professional rehabilitation practices by the INSS in the context of the pension scheme reform. Conclusions: In the cases of chronic disability, we are faced with a ¿class-who-lives-on-Social-Security¿. The process of reform of the pension scheme culminated, in practice, in the extinction of professional rehabilitation programs, the drastic decrease of personnel and the extinction of careers targeted at the therapeutic service Doutorado Saude Coletiva Doutor em Saude Coletiva

Abstract (sommario):

This work documents the author's interest in drawing and is based on the mental background of his artistic creation. The work is guided by the interest in the physical conditions of the drawing itself (materiality of the drawing), but also in the study of drawing as a fluid material of artistic creation, entering into the relationship with the image (drawing as a material). At the same time it deals with the process of creation itself and the phenomenon of repetition. The primary goal of the whole work is not the deliberate laying of pre-formulated questions and the subsequent search for their answers, the presentation of some finished truths, or the mere illustration of a certain issue, but rather the process of finding questions that emerge during the process of creation itself.

Abstract (sommario):

A partir d’une réflexion plastique, cette recherche vise à étudier les liens entre la répétition et l’art vidéo. La répétition, pensée en termes de processus, s’inscrit dans une double perspective. Elle est d’abord un principe de composition qui génère un certain nombre d’effets. Elle est ensuite un motif capable d’interroger une série de glissements perceptifs susceptibles d’interroger notre travail psychique actuel. Une première partie, consacrée à la mise en boucle de l’image et du son et à la boucle du direct, vise à étudier comment la diversité des processus de répétition à l’oeuvre dans l’art vidéo peut orchestrer de façon singulière la perception des objets temporels. Une seconde partie permettra d’étudier comment les processus de répétition opèrent lorsqu’ils prennent place dans des vidéos qui intègrent une dimension narrative. La circularité des récits, les jeux de dédoublements et de redoublements, les allers-retours entre textes et images agissent comme autant de ritournelles qui décousent l’unité des personnages et de leurs récits pour tenter de cerner un sujet aujourd’hui caractérisé par son indétermination Starting with a reflection based on plastic arts, this thesis aims at studying the links between repetition and video art. Repetition, considered as a process, is double. First, it is a composition principle which produces several effects. Secondly, it is a motif capable of interrogating a series of perception shifts likely to question our current psychic work. The aim of the first part, devoted to sound and image in a continuous loop and to feedback processes, is to study how the many processes of repetition at work in video art can orchestrate our perception of temporal objects. The second part will focus on the way these processes of repetition operate when they take place in videos with a narrative dimension. The narratives’ circularity, the processes of doubling and reduplication, the back and forth movement between texts and images act as ritournelles which undo the characters and their stories’ unity to try and comprehend a subject whose profound nature is today indeterminate

Atualmente a exigência por produtos seguros se fortalece num ritmo muito acelerado, fazendo com que o beneficiamento pós-colheita dos produtos agrícolas se constitua numa atividade em grande expansão no Brasil. A Movimentação Manual de Cargas (MMC) nas unidades de beneficiamento de tomates (UB) é a atividade laboral mais freqüênte nas etapas do processo de beneficiamento e a que mais expõe os trabalhadores a riscos de lesão do sistema osteomuscular. O objetivo geral desse estudo foi analisar as tarefas de MMC das Unidades de Benrficiamento de Tomate de Mesa, visando contribuir para a prevenção das ocorrências de distúrbios osteomusculares nos trabalhadores. Para a realização do estudo, foram escolhidas seis Unidades de Beneficiamento, todas localizadas no estado de São Paulo. A compreensão do funcionamento geral das UB, foi possível a partir da aplicação do método da Análise Ergonômica do Trabalho (AET). Através de ferramentas que compõem o método da AET, como as observações sistemáticas, que possibilitaram o conhecimento do fluxo de produção, e as verbalizações dos trabalhadores, foi possível a identificação das etapas do processo de beneficiamento em que a MMC se apresentava com maior predominância. Para avaliar o risco de lesão do sistema osteomuscular dos trabalhadores nas etapas selecionadas dentro do processo de beneficiamento onde a MMC se apresentava de forma predominante, foram aplicados os métodos da equação National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), que é um método de análise quantitativa e que determina o Limite de Peso Recomendado (LPR) para cada tarefa e o método do Diagrama das Áreas Dolorosas que é um método subjetivo em que os trabalhadores através de um questionário apontam para as áreas do corpo que apresentam desconforto. Em todas as etapas do processo de beneficiamento estudadas, o peso real da carga movimentada manualmente superou o limite de peso recomendado (LPR) pelo NIOSH. O Diagrama de Áreas Dolorosas identificou extremo desconforto na área posterior do tronco, ombros, braços e antebraços, corroborando os resultados obtidos pela equação do NIOSH Abstract: Tomato cropping is one of the biggest Brazilian agriculture markets, that generates more than 200,000 direct jobs. Nowadays the demand for safe products increases in a very accelerated rhythm, making the post harvest beneficiary process of the agriculture products an activity with a great expansion in Brazil. The manual material handling (MMH) in the fresh tomatoes packing houses is the most frequent labor activity in the phases of beneficiary process and the one of major risk of bone-muscle system lesion to the workers. The main goal of this work was to analyze the MMH tasks in six table tomato packing house in order to contribute to the prevention of the bone-muscle disturb occurrences in them. To accomplish this six packing houses located in São Paulo state were chosen. The comprehension of the packing house general functionalities was accomplished from the application of Work Ergonomic Analyses (WEA) method. Using WEA method tools, as the systematic observations, made it possible the identification of beneficiary process phases in which the MLM was predominant. In order to evaluate the risk of bone-muscle system lesion of the workers in the selected phases of the beneficiary process where MMH was predominant, two methods were applied: the first one was the Equation Method of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), which is a quantitative analysis method that determines the Recommended Weight Limit (RWL) for each task. The second one was the Painful Area Diagram method, which is a subjective method where the workers indicates, through a questionnaire, the body areas which present discomfort. In all studied phases of the beneficiary process, the actual load weight manually moved overcome the NIOSH recommended weight limit (RWL). The painful area diagram identified extremely discomfort in the posterior area of the trunk, shoulders, arms and forearms, reaffirming the results obtained by the NIOSH equation Mestrado Planejamento e Desenvolvimento Rural Sustentável Mestre em Engenharia Agrícola

Abstract (sommario):

Introdução: O Código de Processo Civil determina que nos processos judiciais em que a matéria depender de conhecimento técnico ou científico, o juiz será assistido por perito, que produzirá um laudo. Foram analisados 83 laudos de processos judiciais do Tribunal Regional do Trabalho da 2ª Região (TRT-2), referentes a reclamantes com Lesões por Esforços Repetitivos ou Distúrbios Osteomusculares Relacionados ao Trabalho (LER/Dort), que abrangem afecções crônicas do sistema musculoesquelético de origem ocupacional e são decorrentes, dentre outros motivos, da execução de movimentos repetitivos por tempo prolongado e sobrecarga estática, sem que haja tempo para uma recuperação fisiológica. Deveriam abordar os vários aspectos do adoecimento para auxiliar a decisão judicial quanto à existência de agravo à saúde relacionado ao trabalho, assim como sua extensão e repercussões sobre a vida e capacidade laboral do trabalhador. Objetivos: Identificar e analisar, nos laudos, conceitos sobre adoecimento ocupacional e incapacidade laboral, bem como as principais linhas de argumentação, para a descaracterização do nexo causal nos casos em que havia nexo causal presumido pelo critério epidemiológico. Material e método: O material de estudo (83 laudos) foi buscado dentre os processos arquivados no período de 2012 a 2016 na Coordenadoria de Gestão de Arquivo do TRT-2, que abrange 30 municípios da região metropolitana de São Paulo e Baixada Santista. Atributos associados aos grandes temas da pesquisa foram codificados com o objetivo de melhor sistematização para uma análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Os laudos periciais foram elaborados, na sua quase totalidade por médicos, dentre os quais 56 (67,47%) médicos do trabalho, 13 (15,66%) médicos sem especificação de especialidade, 9 (10,84%) médicos com especialização em perícia ou legistas e 4 ortopedistas (4,82%). Um deles (1,21%) foi elaborado por fisioterapeuta. Do total de laudos, 25 (30,12%) não tinham quaisquer informações sobre o processo de adoecimento e apenas 23 (27,71%) contemplaram uma história clínica abrangente. Em 34 (40,96%) não havia qualquer informação sobre as características da atividade de trabalho e em 30 (36,15%) havia a citação de alguns aspectos biomecânicos. Apenas 19 (22,89%) apresentaram uma análise da atividade de trabalho, incluindo aspectos biomecânicos e organizacionais. Nenhum laudo continha uma análise da incapacidade para o trabalho de forma ampla, sendo que em 50 laudos (60,24%), o perito considerou apenas o diagnóstico para se pronunciar sobre a incapacidade. Do total dos laudos, apenas 13 (15,66%) utilizaram o conceito de multicausalidade e 12 (14,46%) o de concausalidade. Dos 15 laudos com nexo causal presumido pelo critério epidemiológico, descaracterizados no caráter ocupacional na perícia, nenhum continha uma análise da atividade de trabalho, embora 9 deles tenham utilizado argumentos biomecânicos, 8 tenham utilizado o argumento de que se tratava de doença degenerativa e 3 de que o quadro era de fibromialgia não ocupacional. Foram discutidos conceitos de adoecimento ocupacional, nexo causal e incapacidade, além da relação de desigualdade, presenteísmo, individualização do adoecimento e culpabilização. Conclusão: A maioria dos laudos periciais peca pela falta de consistência conceitual, metodológica e argumentos fundamentados, deixando lacunas na área clínica, na análise da atividade de trabalho e na avaliação de incapacidade. Introduction: The Civil Code Procedure determines that in judicial proceedings in which the matter depends on technical or scientific knowledge, the judge will be assisted by experts, who will produce a forensic report. A total of 83 reports, from the Regional Labor Court of the 2nd Region (TRT-2), were analysed, concerning claimants suffering from Repetitive Strain Injury or Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders (RSI/WRMD), which include occupational chronic conditions of the musculoskeletal system, that are due, among other reason to the execution of repetitive movements for a prolonged time and static overload without pause foa a physiological recoevery. They should address the various aspects of illness in order to assist the judge in his decision regarding the existence of as aggravated health related to work, as well as its extent and repercussions on the life and work capacity of the worker. Objectives: To identify and analyse concepts about occupational illness and disability to work, expressed in the reports, as well as the main lines of argument, for the de-characterization of the causal nexus in cases where there was causal nexus presumed by the epidemiological criterion. Material and method: The study material was searched from the archived processes from 2012 to 2016 in the File Management Coordination of TRT-2, which covers 30 municipalities in the metropolitan region of São Paulo and Baixada Santista. Attributes associated with the major themes of the research were codified with the aim of better systematization for a content analysis. Results: The expert reports were elaborated almost entirely by physicians, among them 56 (67.47%) occupational physicians, 13 (15.66%) doctors without a declared specialty, 9 (10.84%), forensic doctors, 4 orthopedists (4,82%). One of the reports (1.21%) was elaborated by a physiotherapist. Of the total reports, 25 (30.12%) did not have information about the illness process and only 23 (27.71%) contemplated a comprehensive medical history. In 34 (40.96%) there was no information about the characteristics of the work activity and in 30 (36.15%) there were citation of some biomechanical aspects. Only 19 (22.89%) presented an analysis of the work activity, including biomechanical and organizational aspects. No report contained an embrancing analysis of disability to work comprehensively, and in 60.24% of them, the expert considered only the diagnosis to pronounce on the disability. Of the total reports, only 13 (15.66%) used the concept of multicausality and 12 (14.46%) the concept of concausality. Of the 15 reports with a presumed causal nexus by the epidemiological criterion, which were not characterized in the occupational character, none contained an analysis of the work activity, although 9 of the 15 reports used biomechanical arguments to de-characterize the occupational character, 8 used the argument that it was degenerative disease and 3 that the condition was non-occupational fibromyalgia. Concepts of occupational illness, causal nexus and disability were discussed, as well as the relationship of inequality, presenteism, individualization of illness and blame. Conclusions: Most of the expert reports are lacking in conceptual, methodological and reasoned arguments, leaving relevant gaps in the clinical area, in the analysis of the work activities and in the assessment of disability.

No. of bitstreams: 1 DissTOS.pdf: 1026563 bytes, checksum: 3084e32eb13447dd885b2643417f39a5 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2005-02-22 Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) constitutes a group of disturbs, with multifactorial origin, mainly promoted by workplace factors (physical, organizational and psychosocial). WMSDs cause high human, social and economic costs, which justifies effort to determine more efficient prevention strategies. However, for an effective prevention is necessary to establish the main risk factors, and create or aprimorate assessment tools. It was proposed a new tool for risk assessment Checklist for musculoskeletal risk assessment (RARME). The objective of this study was to evaluate the consistency of this checklist in relation to other physical load indicators: discomfort and exertion ratings, sick leave and Ergonomic Workplace Analysis. Thirty-one subjects took part in this study. They performed fifteen different tasks involving repetitive motion pattern and manual material handling. Checklist was applied by direct observation in the workplace. No relation between the results from checklist and the other physical load indicators was identified. Several factors might have contributed to the lack of consistency between indicators. Exposure variability, cognitive overload of the observer, bias in observation methods, and instruments for risk measurement are important factors to be considered when analyzing the present results. Thus, although it was not possible to check the protocol validity, relevant methodological aspects when using theses types of checklists were discussed. Besides this, an improved version of RARME protocol is presented. As Lesões por Esforços Repetitivos/Distúrbios Osteomusculares Relacionados ao Trabalho (LER/DORT) constituem um grupo de distúrbios, de origem multifatorial, promovidos ou agravados por características do local de trabalho (físicas, organizacionais ou psicossociais). As LER/DORT causam alto custo humano, social e econômico, o que justifica esforços para determinar estratégias de prevenção mais eficazes. Porém, para uma prevenção efetiva é necessário que se identifique as principais causas destes distúrbios, além de se criar ou aprimorar ferramentas de avaliação dos riscos presentes no trabalho. Diante disto foi proposto o Roteiro para Avaliação de Riscos Músculo-Esqueléticos (RARME). O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a consistência deste Roteiro em relação a outros indicadores de sobrecarga física: escalas de desconforto e esforço, afastamento do trabalho e Análise Ergonômica do Local de Trabalho. Foram avaliados 31 indivíduos que realizavam 15 atividades diferentes com padrões de movimento repetitivos e manuseio de cargas. A aplicação do RARME foi feita por observação direta. Não foi identificada relação entre o RARME e os outros indicadores de sobrecarga física. Vários fatores podem ter contribuído para esta inconsistência. A variabilidade da exposição; sobrecarga cognitiva do observador e erros inerentes à observação; e características dos instrumentos usados para medir o risco são fatores importantes a serem considerados quando se analisam os presentes resultados. Portanto, embora não tenha sido possível checar a validade deste novo Roteiro, foi possível determinar uma série de considerações metodológicas importantes para o uso de protocolos de registro postural. Além disso, uma versão aprimorada do RARME foi proposta.

Abstract (sommario):

I detta arbete undersöks två etablerade och en experimentell metod för bestämmande av läsbarheten hos texter. Metoderna undersöks genom att de appliceras på två litterära verk: Atemschaukel av Herta Müller och Berühre mich. Nicht. av Laura Kneidl. Metoderna som undersöks är läsbarhetsformeln Flesch-Reading-Ease (meningslängd och ordlängd) och ordfrekvens (hur vanliga orden är). Dessa båda läsbarhetsundersökningar är väletablerade och har använts flitigt. I detta arbete testas även en ny möjlig läsbarhetsfaktor: Upprepningar av ord, där upprepningar av innehållsord räknas. Resultaten av analyserna enligt de olika metoderna sammanställs och jämförs för att besvara två frågor: 1. Vilket verk förefaller mest lättläst enligt de två etablerade läsbarhetsundersökningarna? 2. Samvarierar mängden upprepningar med resultaten från de andra två läsbarhetsundersökningarna? Resultaten ger en något splittrad bild: Atemschaukel är enligt Flesch-Reading-Ease det mest lättlästa verket, medan ordfrekvensen visar på motsatt förhållande: Berühre mich. Nicht. har de genomsnittligt vanligare orden. Huruvida upprepning av ord har ett samband med läsbarheten är svårt att avgöra baserat enbart på resultaten i denna undersökning. Användandet av språkliga stilfaktorer för eventuellt att läsbarhetstest inte lämpar sig för undersökning av skönlitterära texter.

Those who manage to recover and resume their professional activities often do so under certain health restrictions. The objective of the present study was to look into the work-disease-rehabilitation process of workers afflicted with repetitive strain injury (RSI)/work-related musculoskeletal disorder (WRMD). Semistructured interviews were applied to seven operators at a private call center in Ceará (five of whom presented RSI/WRMD), one supervisor and one trade union representative. The findings show that our subjects share a number of characteristics with call center operators described in other studies on RSI/WRMD, such as the prevalence of female workers (>70%) and outsourced jobs. On the other hand, our subjects differed from most studies with regard to their age range (18-22 years) and schooling (relatively high level). Many of our subjects were taking courses at the university in order to improve their professional qualification while on the job. The poor working conditions, long hours and pressure for productivity placed our subjects at increased risk for acquiring RSI/WRMD. In general, when workers present work-related diseases, companies may deny the existence of a causal relationship. When such relationships are recognized workers are referred to treatment and rehabilitation through public health care (SUS). When rehabilitated workers return to their respective companies they are often given jobs below their actual skill level to prevent recurrence of RSI/WRMD. Once the period expires during which rehabilitated workers are protected against dismissal by law, many such workers are laid off. Thus, workers in this category are caught in a dilemma: if they remain on the job after their rehabilitation, they will have to perform activities they consider meaningless or even humiliating, while being discriminated by peers and supervisors, and if they decide return to the labor market, they will do so as recently rehabilitated and not yet fully trained. Dentro do atual contexto do trabalho, muitos trabalhadores têm sido afastados de seu exercício profissional em decorrência de adoecimento provocado pela própria situação de trabalho. Quando ocorre retornarem às suas atividades laborais, após o restabelecimento de sua saúde, muitas vezes o fazem com restrições de sua capacidade de trabalho. O objetivo deste trabalho é apreender a experiência dos atendentes quanto ao processo de trabalho-adoecimento por LER/DORT-reabilitação. A pesquisa envolveu sete atendentes de um call center de uma empresa privada de telecomunicações que atua no estado do Ceará, entre os quais cinco apresentavam sintomas de LER/DORT e dois permaneciam saudáveis, uma supervisora e um membro do sindicato da categoria. A técnica utilizada foi a entrevista semi-estruturada. Os resultados encontrados revelaram que alguns aspectos do perfil do atendente são semelhantes aos apresentados em outros estudos, como, por exemplo, a predominância feminina com pouco mais de 70% e a preponderância da terceirização como vínculo de trabalho. Quanto aos aspectos que diferiram estão a predominância de atendentes com idade entre 18 e 22 anos e o nível de escolaridade elevada. Neste caso, encontramos um número expressivo de atendentes matriculados em cursos superiores, o que significa que se trata de trabalhadores que ainda estão buscando maior qualificação enquanto trabalham. Esses atendentes se defrontam com condições de trabalho precárias, ritmos intensos de trabalho e cobranças excessivas por produtividade, o que maximiza suas chances de adquirir a LER/DORT. Somando-se a isso, nas situações em que trabalhador adoece, a empresa tenta encobrir a relação com a situação de trabalho, negando-se a reconhecer o nexo causal entre os aspectos do trabalho e a doença. Nos casos em que se reconhece o nexo causal, o atendente é encaminhado para tratamento e reabilitação através do INSS. Quando este trabalhador retorna à empresa, em geral assume um posto de trabalho muito aquém de sua qualificação por praticamente não haver outra atividade que possa realizar sem riscos para o retorno dos sintomas de LER. Afora isto, uma vez findo seu período de estabilidade em razão do adoecimento, o atendente geralmente é demitido. Esses trabalhadores vivem, portanto, dois dilemas que os amedrontam: ao permanecer na empresa, são forçados a realizar atividades que consideram inúteis e até humilhantes, o que leva a sentirem-se discriminados por colegas e supervisores; ao serem demitidos, estarão no mercado de trabalho já com sua capacidade de trabalho comprometida, antes mesmo de estarem totalmente qualificados, e tendo que concorrer com aqueles que são considerados saudáveis.

Abstract (sommario):

This paper describes my work with a historical craft and my attempt to find new ways to look at it, work with it and present it. I use the embroidery technique Hardangersaum which is all white, and where selected threads of the woven fabric grid are removed while others are wrapped and embellished. The artistic research leans heavily on the traditional craft but tries to isolate it from its historical baggage. I turn my focus to the grid of the fabric and I present some viewpoints from Rosalind Krauss and Hannah B. Higgins. I describe questions of scale and presentation that have emerged and show how digital animation has played a major role in the development and the communication of the embroidery work.

Abstract (sommario):

This study aims to describe what discourses about the illness of the body of the worker diagnosed with RSI/Dort and its relation to social protection devices of the state (accident benefits and wages) and against the state (administrative and legal demands of the workers against the INSS). This is intended to identify the reports about the (in) utility body worker diagnosed with RSI/Dort present in INSS and publications from these publications, map the other social actors that present themselves in these documents in discourses on the concept of body unable to work. Also problematize the relationship between work, body and health in contemporary from the senses that are constructed in discursive play and how the various devices and instances of state crossing in the production of meanings about the subjects that are affected by RSI/WMSD and we are in a situation of inability to work. In an attempt to demarcate the conditions of possibility of these discourses, seeks to emphasize the historicity of brands involved in aspects of production, circulation and consumption of these discourses. Based on the desk research as a methodological strategy, the work is guided in look that takes the analysis of the discursive practices through the production of meanings. Documents are used as the publications of the INSS on your Website that have addressed the issue as RSI/Dort. Examination of documents, notes the consolidation of the publications of the INSS in the production of meanings about RSI/Dort, but also is the recent statement arregimento between the Ministry of Social Security and the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Labour and Employment. Regarding the assessment of incapacity for work, emphasizes the supremacy of medical care for physical examinations, which possibly indicates the importance given to social security expert in the production of truth about this disease. Therapeutic measures are still considered incipient and the prognosis is not favorable to the worker. The reintegration of the worker who has been affected by RSI/Dort and is able to return to work is still a step-confrontational, which has demanded accountability questions about the disease and the social protection of such workers. Shares judicias between worker and company, employee and company and INSS and seem to establish a field conflictive to guarantee rights and social protection for the worker who is marked as unable to work due to RSI/Dort. O presente estudo objetiva enunciar as discursividades sobre o adoecimento do corpo do trabalhador acometido por LER/Dort e sua relação com os dispositivos de proteção social do Estado (benefícios acidentários e previdenciários) e contra o Estado (demandas administrativas e judiciais dos trabalhadores contra o INSS). Com isso, pretende identificar os relatos sobre a (in)utilidade do corpo do trabalhador acometido por LER/Dort presente nas publicações do INSS e, a partir dessas publicações, mapear os demais atores sociais que se presentificam nesses documentos no discursos sobre o conceito de corpo incapaz para o trabalho. Também se problematizam a relação entre trabalho, corpo e saúde na contemporaneidade a partir dos sentidos que se constroem nesse jogo discursivo e de que forma as diversas instâncias e dispositivos de Estado se atravessam na produção de sentidos sobre os sujeitos que são acometidos pelas LER/DORT e que se encontram numa situação de incapacidade para o trabalho. Na tentativa de demarcar as condições de possibilidade dessas discursividades, busca enfatizar as marcas de historicidade envolvidas nos aspectos de produção, circulação e consumo desses discursos. Partindo da pesquisa documental como estratégia metodológica, o trabalho pauta-se no olhar que assume a análise das práticas discursivas através da produção de sentidos. São utilizados como documentos as publicações do INSS em seu portal eletrônico que têm como assunto abordado as LER/Dort. Na análise dos documentos, observa-se a consolidação das publicações do INSS na produção de sentidos sobre as LER/Dort, mas também é enunciado o recente arregimento entre o Ministério da Previdência e Assistência Social e os Ministério da Saúde e Ministério do Trabalho e do Emprego. No que diz respeito à avaliação da incapacidade para o trabalho, ressalta-se a supremacia do olhar clínico sobre os exames físicos, o que indica possivelmente a importância dada ao perito previdenciário na produção de verdade sobre essa enfermidade. As medidas terapêuticas ainda são consideradas incipientes e o prognóstico é bastante desfavorável ao trabalhador. A reinserção profissional do trabalhador que foi acometido pelas LER/Dort e encontra-se apto ao retorno ao trabalho ainda é uma etapa conflituosa, o que tem demandado questões sobre a responsabilização pelo adoecimento e pela proteção social desse trabalhador. As ações judicias entre trabalhador e empresa, trabalhador e INSS e empresa e INSS parecem estabelecer um campo conflituoso para garantia de direitos e proteção social para o trabalhador que é marcado como incapaz para o trabalho em virtude das LER/Dort.

One of the measures for controlling these disorders is workplace exercise, either at the workstation or in a separate environment within the company. However, there is controversy regarding the effectiveness and means of applying these interventions. Objectives: To assess and provide evidence of the effectiveness of workplace exercise in controlling musculoskeletal pain. Methods: The following databases were searched: PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, PEDro and Web of Science. Two independent reviewers selected the elegible studies. Possible disagreements were solved by consensus. All randomized controlled clinical trials that evaluated exercise interventions in the workplace musculoskeletal pain relief were included. The PEDro scale (range=0-10 points) was used to rate the quality of the studies included in this review. Results and Conclusion: The electronic search yielded a total of 8680 references published in English. At the end of the selection process, 18 studies were included. Strong evidence was found to support the effectiveness of physical exercise in controlling neck pain among workers who performed sedentary tasks in offices or administrative environments, while moderate evidence was found for low back pain relief among healthcare and industrial workers who performed heavy physical tasks. These positive results were reported when the training periods were longer than 10 weeks, the exercises were performed against some type of resistance and the sessions were supervised. None of the studies evaluating sedentary workers reported positive results for controlling musculoskeletal shoulder pain. Further randomized controlled trials are needed to comparatively evaluate, among other aspects, the effects of light and heavy training for shoulder pain relief. As disfunções musculoesqueléticas representam um problema de saúde mundial. Dentre o conjunto de medidas para controle dessas alterações está a prática de exercício físico em ambiente ocupacional, que pode ser realizada no próprio setor de trabalho ou em ambientes à parte, mas dentro da empresa. Entretanto, há controvérsias quanto à efetividade e à forma de aplicação desse tipo de intervenção.Objetivos: Avaliar a efetividade e fornecer evidências a respeito da prática de exercício físico no ambiente ocupacional para o controle da dor musculoesquelética. Métodos: As seguintes bases bibliográficas foram consultadas: PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, PEDro e Web of Science. Dois revisores independentes selecionaram os estudos pertinentes, e as eventuais discordâncias foram solucionadas por consenso. Foram incluídos no estudo os ensaios clínicos randomizados controlados que realizaram intervenção no local de trabalho envolvendo exercício e avaliaram a dor musculoesquelética. A escala PEDro, que tem pontuação de 0-10, foi utilizada para avaliação da qualidade dos estudos incluídos nesta revisão. Resultados e Conclusões: A busca eletrônica resultou em um total de 8680 referências publicadas em inglês. Ao final do processo de seleção, 18 estudos foram incluídos. Forte evidência foi encontrada para a efetividade do exercício físico no controle de dor cervical em trabalhadores que realizavam atividades em escritórios ou setores administrativos, descritos como sedentários enquanto evidência moderada foi encontrada para a região lombar daqueles que realizavam atividades envolvendo manuseio de pacientes ou materiais na indústria, desde que os treinamentos fossem aplicados por períodos superiores a dez semanas, incluíssem exercícios realizados com algum tipo de resistência e fossem supervisionados. Nenhum estudo avaliando trabalhadores sedentários relatou resultados positivos para o controle da dor musculoesquelética em ombros. Novos estudos randomizados controlados são necessários para avaliar, dentre outros aspectos, o efeito comparado de treinos leves e pesados para ombros.

Abstract (sommario):

Syfte: Studien syftade till att undersöka om det fanns en relation mellan barns prosodiska och expressiva grammatiska förmågor samt hur förmågan att använda betoning hos barn med typisk språkutveckling kan beskrivas. Metod: Tolv barn i åldrarna 3;7–6;11 med typisk språkutveckling rekryterades till studien. Två material utarbetades för att dels undersöka expressiv grammatisk förmåga och betoningsförmåga, dels expressiv betoningsförmåga och fonologi vid repetition av ord och nonord. Barnens grammatiska förståelse testades med Nya SIT. I ord- och nonordsuppgiften analyserades förmågan att producera korrekt andel stavelser samt förmågan att producera korrekta konsonanter, vokaler samt korrekt betoning. I det expressiva grammatiskt-prosodiska materialet analyserades förmågan att uttrycka korrekt andel stavelser samt expressiv grammatisk förmåga och betoning i respektive grammatisk konstruktion. Resultat: Det fanns en svag, icke-signifikant korrelation mellan förmågan att producera korrekt andel stavelser i det grammatiskt-prosodiska materialet och förmågan att producera stavelser i ord- och nonordsuppgiften. Det fanns en stark, signifikant korrelation mellan förmågan att producera korrekt andel stavelser och expressiv grammatisk förmåga. Det fanns även en stark, signifikant korrelation mellan expressiv grammatisk förmåga och förmågan att repetera vokaler och konsonanter i ord- och nonord. Slutsats: Barnen uttryckte både betoning och grammatik väl och hade mycket hög förmåga till att realisera vokaler och konsonanter enligt målyttrandena. Det fanns inte någon skillnad i prestation som gick att hänföra till skillnader i betoningsmönster. Om ett barn i den här gruppen var bra på att uttrycka korrekt betoning var barnet även bra på expressiv grammatik, men förmågorna är inte testade oberoende av varandra. På grund av gruppens storlek går inte resultaten att generalisera till en större population. Aim: The study aimed to investigate whether there was a relationship between children's prosodic and expressive grammatical abilities and how the ability to use stress patterns in children with typical language development can be described. Method: Twelve children aged 3;7–6;11 with typical language development were recruited to this study. Two materials for assessment were developed, one for examining expressive grammatical and prosodic ability and stress patterns, and one for examining phonology and stress patterns by word and nonword repetition. The children’s grammatical understanding was assessed with “Nya SIT”. In the word and nonword repetition task the use of syllables and the ability to produce consonants and vowels as well as the use of stress patterns were analyzed. In the expressive grammatical-prosodic material, the ability to express the correct proportion of syllables and expressive grammatical ability as well as prosodic stress in respective grammatical constructions were analyzed. Results: There was a weak, non-significant correlation between the ability to produce the correct proportion of syllables in the grammatical-prosodic material and the ability to produce syllables in the word and nonword task. There was a strong, significant correlation between the ability to produce the correct proportion of syllables and expressive grammatical ability. There was also a strong, significant correlation between expressive grammatical ability and the ability to repeat vowels and consonants in words and nonwords. Conclusions: The children expressed both prosodic stress patterns and grammar well and had a very high ability to realize vowels and consonants according to the target utterances. There was no difference in performance that could be attributed to differences in prosodic stress patterns. If a child in this group was good at expressing correct prosodic stress, he/she was also good at expressive grammar, but these abilities were not tested independently. Because of the group’s size, the results cannot be generalized to a larger population.

No. of bitstreams: 1 TeseIAPW.pdf: 1512962 bytes, checksum: fa65d9db2288861ce39f29eb99b3533c (MD5) Previous issue date: 2004-12-02 Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WRMDs) are diseases that result in persistent pain, loss of functional capacity and associated work disability. This diagnostic is important because it is used to guide clinical and legal decisions. Their initial diagnosis is difficult because such diagnoses are based on complaints of pain and they often involve conflicting social and economic interests. Because of the complexity of such diagnoses, further studies are needed in order to analyze the association between subjective descriptions and objective findings. Therefore was made two research. The objective of the first research was to evaluate the impact of personal, clinical and occupational aspects on work ability of workers with and without WRMDs using an approved version of the Work Ability Index (WAI) and pain scale. This evaluated 127 workers of industrial production lines. A descriptive analysis was carried out using the Chi-square test and it was also performed a logistic regression analysis. A significant association was identified between the WAI and all personal, clinical and occupational aspects. Regression analysis showed that pain and sick leave together accounted for 59% of poor work ability. The objective of the second research was to evaluate the clinical and functional aspects of WRMDs, in relation to physical evaluation, perception of pain, self-reporting of symptoms and functional ability, among active workers at a single company with and without symptoms or evidence of this disorders. 134 female workers were physically evaluated by two trained physiotherapists. They filled out a questionnaire on discomfort due to pain, a pain scale, the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire (ODQ) and the Work Ability Index (WAI). The results were correlated and logistic regressions were run. According to the results symptom reports were explained by the results from the pain scale and the clinical findings and clinical findings by symptom reports and WAI. In two research the relationship between pain, symptom reports and clinical findings demonstrates that the patient s current state can be assessed not only by means of objective examinations, but also by means of instruments that take into account the patient s perception of his or her state. Os distúrbios ostemusculares relacionados ao trabalho (DORT) podem resultar em dor crônica, diminuição da capacidade funcional e associada incapacidade para o trabalho.Seu diagnóstico é importante pois direciona as decisões clínicas e legais. No entanto, essas lesões apresentam desafios para seu diagnóstico e prognóstico, uma vez que envolvem indicadores subjetivos, porque há fatores de interesses sociais e econômicos envolvidos. Em função desta complexidade, mais estudos são necessários para analisar a associação entre relatos subjetivos e achados objetivos. Desta forma foram realizados dois estudos. O objetivo do primeiro foi avaliar o impacto de fatores pessoais, do trabalho e da lesão na capacidade funcional dos trabalhadores com e sem história de acometimento de lesões músculo-esqueléticas relacionadas ao trabalho, utilizando a aplicação autorizada do Índice de Capacidade para o Trabalho (WAI) e escala de dor. Este avaliou 127 trabalhadores de linhas de produção industrial. Os resultados foram analisados descritivamente, por meio do teste Qui-quadrado e pela análise de regressão logística. Todos os fatores pessoais, ocupacionais e clínicos analisados apresentaram relação significativa com a capacidade para o trabalho. A análise de regressão mostrou que dor e afastamento do trabalho explicaram juntas 59% da baixa capacidade para o trabalho. O objetivo do segundo estudo foi avaliar os aspectos clínicos e funcionais dos DORT, em relação a avaliação clínica, percepção da dor, auto-relato de sintomas e capacidade funcional através da avaliação de trabalhadores de uma mesma empresa, com sem sintomas de DORT. 134 mulheres foram fisicamente avaliadas por dois fisioterapeutas treinados e responderam a um questionário relacionado a sensação de dor ou desconforto, escala de dor, questionário de incapacidade de Oswestry (ODQ) e índice de capacidade para o trabalho (WAI). Os resultados foram correlacionados e a análise de logística foi aplicada. Os resultados indicaram que relatos de sintomas foram explicados pela escala de dor e exame clínico e o exame clínico foi explicado pelos relatos de sintomas e WAI. As associações entre dor, relatos de sintomas e exame clínico, demonstraram que o estado atual do paciente pode ser avaliado não somente por exames objetivos mas também por meio de instrumentos que levem em conta a percepção do próprio paciente sobre seu estado.

Abstract (sommario):

Le mot est au centre de toutes les attentions dans l’entier de l’œuvre de Marivaux. Si ce questionnement sémantique est sans doute au cœur de toute entreprise littéraire, il revêt une acuité particulière pour l’auteur dont le style a été nommé « marivaudage », terme dont le sens premier en dit long sur le caractère exacerbé de cette thématique. En effet, Marivaux exhibe le doute lexical, il exhibe la polysémie, creuse la verticalité du sens comme pour en révéler des strates inouïes, pour en épuiser les possibles. Dans cette œuvre complexe, le mot ne tient pas de l’heureuse évidence mais est sans cesse soumis au soupçon : soupçon d’une manipulation, soupçon d’un sens second, soupçon d’un emploi galvaudé ; un scepticisme dans la fiction qui constitue sans doute la marque de la quête aléthique de son auteur, car Marivaux a pensé le mot, en écrivain et en philosophe ; une quête dont quelques textes théoriques gardent la trace. Cette thèse se propose donc d’observer le pourquoi et le comment du fonctionnement sémantique dans l’œuvre de Marivaux, d’interroger le questionnement permanent autour du mot _ un mot mis en question dans son sens, remis en question dans ses applications au sein d’une interaction _, de scruter les rouages du mécanisme lexical propre à cet auteur et ce, en observant le contexte de production des œuvres, puis le travail sur la répétition du mot et enfin le mot pris dans un réseau de résonance à différents niveaux au sein de la phrase, au sein du discours et au sein du monde et des normes communicationnels qui soutiennent tout échange Words are a focal point in the whole work of Marivaux. This theme could be important in any literature production but it seems to be particularly significant in the one for which « marivaudage » was created for. Marivaux enhances the doubt about word meaning, he exhibits the polysemous nature of each term in order to reveal an unknown level of semantic. In his complex work, words are suspected to be abused, distorded, misunderstood, manipulated. This scepticism that we can find in the novels themselves is a proof that Marivaux thinks about words as an author and as a philosopher. My work tries to investigate on why words are questioned so often and how Marivaux can handle it : first, examining context, the early XVIIIth century offered a fertile ground to that type of reflexion, then looking at the repetition in the texts, to finish with words associated with other worlds, in a sentence, in a text, in a speech to see how these interactions can influence its meaning
