Streszczenie:
Research has shown that young children have some understandings of death. However, adults are hesitant (or even avoidant) to discuss death with young children for fear that they will scare them, or they are not sure what to tell them. Sessions were part of this project, educating adults in a child’s development and how that development affects what young children understand about death. The three sessions, completed over two weeks, included three topics including anxieties the adult may have about death, cognitive and emotional development of the young child, and the adult’s role in discussing death with young children. Participants completed a pre- and post-test. Results indicated that adults felt more comfortable discussing the death of a person with a young child, as well as feeling less avoidant of having those discussions.

This thesis explores associations that could have an impact on the experience of a parental death in childhood. It suggests a methodology for establishing the prevalence of parental bereavement that helps the author to explore quantitatively any associated links between parental death in childhood and delinquency rates in 16-year-olds. As well as helping to establish the prevalence of parental death in childhood, the methodology also enables the author to explore possible contributing factors that could increase a child's vulnerability to the experience of parental death such as social class, age and gender of child and dead parent these are presented as a set of risk variables in which the data shows an increase in a parentally bereaved child's susceptibility to delinquent behaviour. It also compares themes within essays written by parentally bereaved children and none parentally bereaved children. The exploration used the Thematic Apparition Test coding as a framework from which to identify differences in the stories told about the future by each comparison group.

Streszczenie:
Only in the past two decades have adults become aware that terminally ill children do know at some level when they are dying. This research used a case study format to investigate the changes in how one child dying of leukemia viewed herself. Specifically, it looked for symbolic and emotional themes which emerged in the material, including Decathexis (separation) and Rebirth. Each of twenty-eight drawings created by this child was analyzed in-depth for content by the researcher. Convergent material from hospital records and a parent journal supplemented the stories and teacher notes accompanying the drawings. Six experts from three countries also categorized each drawing for images of Decathexis and Rebirth. Initially, themes of threats, dreams, trickery and intuition appeared along with fear and sadness. Once the child seemed to clearly understand that she would die, these changed to fading and distancing images, indicative of separation. There was a slight increase in images supporting themes of resignation and happiness. Physical deterioration and resistance appeared throughout the series as distortions of a girl and dilapidated and edged houses. Themes of a new home and travel also appeared throughout. The classification by experts according to Decathexis and Rebirth resulted in unanimous agreement on twenty-five per cent of the pictures and two thirds of the experts agreed on the placement of eighty-six per cent of the pictures. It would appear that on one level the child knew from the beginning that she would die, but at another level she resisted that knowledge for a time. As clear awareness of death was developing, defensive themes such as trickery and dreaming appeared in stories which accompanied the drawings. However, the images, themes and convergent material suggest that she reconciled the dual awareness levels and worked towards acceptance of her fate.

This study addressed the question: “What meaning do social workers give to their experience of working with families with children facing death?” Its purpose was to explore the meaning social workers attach to their unique professional role in this particular area of practice. Four social work participants from a children’s hospital were recruited, chosen because of their experience in working directly with this population. Criteria for inclusion were a minimum education level of a Master’s Degree in Social Work and at least two years of experience working in the hospital setting. A qualitative descriptive approach, drawing on phenomenology, was utilized. Each participant was individually interviewed for one hour using a semi-structured format. A phenomenological approach to data analysis was used. After careful review, four areas of meaning-making emerged: what brought participants to this work; meaning-making within the function of the role; connection and companionship; and, challenges faced within the role. These results add to the relatively small base of knowledge regarding the experience of social workers who work in pediatric end-of-life care in a healthcare setting.

Streszczenie:
Recent studies on the Argentine public health system have demonstrated that the lack of medical resources in different parts of the country force pediatric oncology patients and their family members to travel to Buenos Aires in order to access care. This internal migration poses difficulties for these families as travel and resettlement are expensive, lead to the separation of family members, and interrupt the child's schooling. This dissertation was designed to document the everyday life experiences of traveling families in order to understand the barriers they faced while attempting to access medical treatment and the strategies they used to surmount these obstacles. Narrative research and Critical Medical Anthropology were combined in order to analyze individual treatment and migration experiences within the political and economic context of the Argentine public health system. The interviews, visual timelines, drawings, and participant-observation carried out with 35 families shed light on differences in the conceptualization of medical treatment and migration between children and their parents, the ways in which the process of parenting was affected by relocation, and the changes that need to be made in the current Argentine public health system to provide timely and high quality pediatric oncology treatment and avoid delays in diagnosis and treatment.

Streszczenie:
The purpose of this focused ethnographic study was to describe the patterns of a good death held by elderly Japanese Americans living in Hawaii. Eighteen "healthy active" elderly Japanese Americans were interviewed individually. In addition, supplementary data, such as interviews with experts and field observations were collected for triangulation of the data. Four themes were derived from 1224 keywords, 56 categories, and 13 patterns. These were: being a burden to the family, process of life and death, individual views on death, and Japanese culture in Hawaii. Being a burden to the family was the largest concern in the participants' idea of dying a good death. Having secure financial resources were key for adequate preparation. The elderly Japanese Americans believed that suffering at the end-of-life should be avoided in order to achieve a good death. Their concept of suffering included: unmanageable pain, being ill for a long time, and being bedridden. Several participants preferred a sudden type of death because they would not have to suffer and not be burdens their family. Contentment in life was also an important aspect of a good death. There was a common belief that the way a person lived was connected with the way he/she died. A number of the participants preferred to die in their own home. Hospitals and retirement homes were other alternatives for the place of death. Individual views on death contributed to establish the concept of good death among elderly Japanese American participants. They shared similar attitudes toward death which were a part of life and inevitable. These attitudes were influenced by religious beliefs and past experiences with death. Different generations of elderly Japanese Americans had different views. The Shin-Issei (first generation who immigrated after World War II) and the Nisei (second generation) held more Japanese views compared to the Sansei (third generation) who were more acculturated. Although the Japanese American parents and children might have different views on life and death, the importance of close family relations and family support was passed on to younger generations.

Streszczenie:
Parent-child conversations have remained on the periphery of studies investigating children's developmental understanding of death and the circumstances under which death is first discussed with children have not yet been documented in the literature. The current program of research sought to investigate the content of parent-child conversations about death and the impact of such discussions. This dissertation is comprised of three manuscripts that collectively contribute to the literature by documenting young children's early experiences with death, exploring the role of parental beliefs and attitudes in parental explanations of death, and evaluating children's feelings and understanding of death after such conversations. The first manuscript reports on parental use of religious and biological explanations of death. Parents (n = 130) of children 1- to 7-years of age completed an online questionnaire. The types of explanations of death provided by parents were examined in relation to parental religiosity, afterlife beliefs, death anxiety, and perceptions of children's physical and emotional reactions to the conversations. The most frequent types of explanations provided to children were religious-spiritual. Parental beliefs in afterlife and death anxiety were able to accurately predict whether parents provided a religious-spiritual explanation. The majority of parents perceived no physical and emotional reactions in their children, however, there was a positive correlation between the biological explanation of the irreversibility of death and perceptions of children's generalized anxiety. The second manuscript provides information on children's earliest conversations about death and parental satisfaction with such conversations. Parents (n = 140) of children 2- to 7-years responded to an online survey regarding their children's experiences with death and the circumstances, conversations, and explanations related to these experiences. The majority of parent-child conversations about death were first initiated when children were between 3- and 3.5-years of age and conversations were most likely initiated by parents. A subset of parents (n = 88) provided narratives of the explanations of death that they gave their child. Satisfaction was higher in those parents who provided explanations of a continued existence after death compared to those who discussed the absence of a future physical relationship after death. The final manuscript reports on children (n = 48) 3- to 8-years that came to the lab and had a conversation about death with their parents. Children also completed measures of fearfulness and death understanding. Children's understanding of the cessation of bodily functions at death was predicted by discussions of the physical causes of death. Understanding of the irreversibility of death was also related to the content of discussions, as those parents who addressed a continued existence had children with lower understanding scores compared to those who discussed the causality of death. Higher levels of understanding death were correlated with higher levels of fear. Previous researchers who have reported that children's fear of death decreases as their biological understanding of death increases have recommended that death be discussed in biological terms with children. The current research introduces a new alternative, that a religious-spiritual conceptualization of death may act as a buffer to children's fear of death and danger. Taken together, findings from these three studies provide empirical support to enhance the developmental literature on children's understanding of death, as well as contribute a new line of inquiry to the field that includes young children's religious-spiritual conceptualizations of death and parent-child conversations.
Les conversations entre les parents et leurs enfants au sujet de leur compréhension de la mort sont restées a la périphérie des études de recherches, ainsi que les circonstances dans lesquelles ces conversations existent qui n'a pas été explorer. Ce programme de recherche à comme objectif principale d'explorer le contenue des conversations entres des parents et leurs enfants au sujet de la mort, ainsi que d'explorer l'impacte de ces discussions. Cette dissertation et compris de trois manuscrits qui ensemble contribue a la littérature par une documentation des expériences vécus par des jeunes enfants auprès de la mort, une exploration du rôle des croyances et attitudes parentales dans les explications offerte aux enfants, et un évaluation des émotions et compréhension de la mort auprès des enfant suite au conversations avec leur parents a ce sujet. Le premier manuscrit décrit l'utilisation parentale d'explications religieuses ou biologique de la mort. Les parents (n = 130) d'enfants âgées entre 1 a 7 ans on remplis un formulaire en ligne. Les types d'explications pour la mort offertes par les parents on été examinée ainsi que la relation entre les perceptions parentales des réactions affectifs et physiques de leur enfant, leur croyances religieuses, leur croyances en vie après la mort, et l'anxiété parentales au sujet de la mort. L'explication parentale la plus fréquente offerte aux enfants était religieux-spirituel. Les croyances parentales dans la vie après la mort ainsi que l'anxiété des parents au sujet de la mort a démontré une relation positive avec les explications religieux-spirituel. La majorité des parents n'ont pas perçu une réaction physique ou affectif chez leurs enfants, par contre, une relation positive a été démontrée entre une explication biologique que la mort est irréversible et les perceptions parentales de l'anxiété générale chez un enfant. Le deuxième manuscrit décrit les premières conversations au sujet de la mort ainsi que la satisfaction parentale. Les parents (n = 140) d'enfants âgées entres 2 a 7 ans on répondu a un formulaire en ligne au sujet des expériences de leurs enfants auprès de la mort, les circonstances, ainsi que les conversations et les explications offertes reliées a ces expériences. La majorité des conversations entres les parents et leurs enfants étaient initiées quand l'enfant était entre 3 et 3.5 ans, et la plupart des conversations était initiées par les parents. Une minorité des parents (n = 88) on offerte des récits exactes de leurs explications au sujet de la mort. La satisfaction parentale était plus hautes chez les parents qui on offerte des explications d'une existence continué après la mort, en comparaison avec les parents qui on discuter l'absence d'une existence physique après la mort. Le troisième et finale manuscrit décrit les enfants (n = 48) âgées entre 3 a 8 ans qui sont venue au laboratoire et qui on eu une conversation avec leur parents au sujet de la mort. Les enfants on aussi compléter des mesures de leurs compréhensions de la mort et leurs peurs. La compréhension des enfants au sujet des cessations des fonctions corporel à la mort était prédite par des discussions des causes physiques de la mort. Une compréhension de la irréversibilité de la mort était reliée au contenue des discussions parentales, car les parents qui on adressée une existence continue avait des enfants avec des niveau de compréhension plus basse en comparaison avec ceux qui on discuter la causalité de la mort. Une compréhension plus élevée de la mort était reliée à un niveau de peur plus élevée. Ensemble, les résultats de ces trois études offre des données empiriques pour améliorer la littérature développementale au sujet de la compréhension de la mort chez les enfants, ainsi que contribue une nouvelle ligne de recherche a ce domaine qui inclut les conceptualisations religieux-spirituel chez les enfants et le conversations entres parents et enfants.

Streszczenie:
The effect of grief on children with autism is an under-researched area of study. Until recently, it was often assumed that individuals with autism did not have the capacity to grieve. Because of deficits in social skills, interpersonal relationships, and language and communication skills, these individuals are especially vulnerable as they navigate the challenging social and emotional aspects associated with bereavement and grief. Bibliotherapy is offered as supportive strategy for bereaved children, providing them with structure and guidance through a time of uncertainty and change. This study is based on two focus groups, one with teachers of children with autism (n = 8) and one with parents of children with autism (n = 5). Researchers focused on the purpose of supporting children in grades K–3 through the death of a loved one or pet. Focus group participants discussed their perceptions of how this special population of children grieves and how to support them following a significant loss, such as the death of a loved one or beloved pet. After reviewing selected resources (supportive stories), participants offered their impressions regarding the appropriateness and potential effectiveness of the resources. Focus groups were audiotaped and later transcribed. Transcriptions were carefully reviewed and discussed by two individuals to identify and summarize themes. After summarizing the information from the transcriptions and organizing the information, one individual served as a quality check, to verify the accuracy of the findings. Additionally, a member check was offered to participants to assure accuracy in the typed transcripts (for intended meaning and content). The following information and recommendations are presented based on the input from the focus group participants. Three overarching themes were identified in this study, as well as some specific cautions and warnings. Participants emphasized the importance of individualization in the selection of stories for children with autism. Readers should be aware of the child’s specific needs and circumstances when they are selecting a story. The stories should be developmentally appropriate and should help support the child through the specific type of death or loss that has occurred. Participants also discussed the importance of selecting books that are concrete, simple, and structured. As children with autism often have difficulty with abstract concepts, the topic of death and loss should be approached in a concrete and literal way. Books that present information in this manner will best help the child to understand their experience. Practitioners who use bibliotherapy to support children with autism through a death or loss should be sensitive to family beliefs. Open communication should be used with the child’s family in order to select a book that best fits that child’s needs. Children with autism will also benefit from stories that help to normalize their experience and that help them to understand the emotions that they or their family and friends may experience. Future research is recommended to further explore the use of supportive stories in aiding a child with autism through the grief and loss process. It is important to examine how children with autism respond to the selected stories and to understand how effective the stories are in their coping and understanding process.

Streszczenie:
This thesis presents an investigation into children in medieval England through burial, the most archaeologically-visible evidence for the treatment and conceptualisation of children in life. It examines whether children were distinguished in burial from adults in parish cemeteries of the 10th-16th centuries. Selected cemeteries are analysed in detail to establish whether or not children received different burial treatment to adults. The burials of biologically-immature individuals are compared with the remainder of the burial population, totalling c.4,700 individuals, assessing whether the provision of burial furniture, burial in a shared grave and location of graves varied by age at death. The dissertation includes a discussion of archaeological and historical approaches to children and child burial, both general and medieval, medieval attitudes to children, death and burial, before discussing the case study sites in depth. From this, the methodological issues of undertaking such a study are considered and a sympathetic methodology developed, before the presentation of analysis, discussions and conclusions. I demonstrate that a variety of burial practices were used during the medieval period and that differentiation by age at death occurred. The results show that burials of juveniles are commonly differentiated, particularly infants aged 0-1 year or children aged 12 years or younger, by furniture, inclusion in a multiple burial and location. The thesis concludes that a variety of factors affected how an individual was buried, with age a strong determining factor for those dying at a young age. The influence of age is interpreted as resulting from medieval attitudes to infants, children and adolescents based on active, socially-identified characteristics, indicative of age-based appropriate burial treatment on both familial and community levels due to emotional, social, religious and economic concerns.

This study aims to discover the meaning that primary school children place on the loss of a parent and the impact it has on the children’s lives. As it is an emotive topic, and because of the difficulties of interviewing children, qualitative techniques of research data collection are considered the most appropriate. The study will explore, discover and describe children’s personal experiences of loss in a phenomenological and contextual manner. The sample in the study will be selected according to non-probability and purposive sampling techniques. Because children are being interviewed, the researcher will ethically approach gatekeepers for permission, and gain their informed consent. Data will be collected using semi-structured interviews, in which the researcher will interact with the interviewees in a natural setting. Data analysis will be done according to Tesch’s eight steps for analysing qualitative research data (Creswell, 1994:155). Once this process has been completed, the data will be verified against the four criteria that Guba (in Krefting, 1991:214-222) developed for testing the trustworthiness of qualitative research findings. The results of the study, as well as conclusions and recommendations drawn from the data, will be disseminated by means of a written report.

Streszczenie:
The Victorian obsession with the child is also often, in the world of literary criticism at least, an obsession with death, whether the death of the child itself or simply the inevitable death of childhood as a seemingly Edenic state of being. This study seeks to consider the way in which the child figure, in texts by four authors published at the end of the nineteenth century, is aligned with an inversion of this relationship. For Walter Pater, Vernon Lee, George MacDonald, and Henry James, the child is bound up instead with un-death, with a construction of death which seeks to remove the finitude, even the mortality, of death itself, or else a death which is expected or anticipated, yet always deferred. While in “The Child in the House” (1878) and “Emerald Uthwart” (1892), Pater places the child at the nexus of his construction of a death which is, rather than a finite ending, a return or a re-beginning, Lee's interest in the child figure's unique access to a world of art, explored in “The Child in the Vatican” (1883) and “Christkindchen” (1897) culminates in a dazzling vision of aesthetic transcendence with “Sister Benvenuta and the Christ Child” (1906). MacDonald, for whom death is already never really death, uses the never-dead child figure in At The Back of the North Wind (1871) and Lilith (1895) as an embodiment of his own distinct engagement with aestheticism, as well as a means by which to express the simultaneous anticipation and depression he experienced in contemplation of death. Finally James, in What Maisie Knew (1897), explores the child's inherent monstrosity as he crafts the possibility of a childhood which consciously refuses to die. This study explores a trajectory in which the child’s place within such reconsiderations of death grows increasingly intense, reaching an apex with MacDonald’s fantastic worlds, before considering James’s problematisation of the concept of the un-dead child in What Maisie Knew.

There is a taboo surrounding death in our North American culture. We're not sure how to talk about it, or how to connect through it. The HBO series Six Feet Under breaks this taboo with its honest, humorous and moving look at death and dying. There are important lessons to be drawn from this series. Teachers could revolutionize their classrooms as this show has revolutionized television: by dealing with issues that most tend to avoid. Parker Palmer and Mary Rose O'Reilley's views on education provide a foundation for this thesis. First, teachers need to recognize the fragility of their students as well as their own. Second, they need to appreciate that loss comes in many forms, and that mourning is often necessary. Third, teaching needs to create a space for both students and teachers to express themselves. Fourth, this space also needs to exist in order for both teachers and students to truly listen to one another. Fifth, teachers need to change their own perception of death and dying if they expect students to do the same. Last, teachers need to promote the idea of connection with the world outside the classroom. This thesis's intention is to bring awareness and acceptance around death and dying to individuals, particularly teachers, by exploring Six Feet Under through the characters' journeys, and extracting its many valuable lessons.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of a group intervention with 12 bereaved children, aged 8-12. All of the children had been bereaved of a parent within the past 2 years. Due to the small number of children available for inclusion in the study, 6 of the children had previously received individual professional help for grief related issued. The design was a repeated measure pre and post intervention between group design. The study compared the two sub-groups of bereaved children with a group of non-bereaved children who were matched in terms of age and sex.

Since Roland Barthes published Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography in 1982, the prevailing theory about photography has revolved around its primary role as a manifestation of transience, death, and mortality. Whether one promotes the philosophy that the photographic image steals away the soul and promotes death, or that it simply captures images of those that have died or will die, the photograph has been commonly interpreted as a visual reminder of the finality of human life. At no time does such an interpretation appear to be more tangibly true than during the mid-nineteenth century when the photograph was commonly used to preserve the actual visage of death in post- mortem portraiture. Here, death is not suggested or implied, but is vividly present. However, the theoretical emphasis that Barthes placed on death has limited our understanding of such images by eliding other meanings historically associated with them. As an addendum to Barthes, I propose that post-mortem images - particularly those of children - represent a more complex relationship between life and death as it pertained to nineteenth-century American culture. Moreover, I believe that it is important to consider post-mortem photography in tandem with painted mourning portraiture, and to contemplate both within a larger visual and cultural context in order to gain a more holistic understanding of these images in antebellum America. My dissertation will re-situate post-mortem representations of children within the material and religious culture of antebellum America, amid evolving historical beliefs about the life of children, the concept of childhood, and ideas about child-rearing, not just postmodern theoretical notions of death. My particular focus on children responds to the poignancy of childhood death in antebellum America and the way in which these images particularly embody the belief in continued existence through the afterlife. By placing such images within the wider context of nineteenth-century culture, I will demonstrate that life existed in death for antebellum Americans through the physical or material presence of the photograph along with Christian spiritual associations regarding the soul and the afterlife. In other words, belief in an ongoing relationship between material and immaterial "bodies" was exteriorized in the painted or photographic representation of the physical corpse, enabling antebellum Americans to interpret the image as both the icon and physical residue of the soul. I will demonstrate that the materiality of the post- mortem image allowed antebellum Americans to preserve that sense of life within death. While the material presence of the image acted as a reflection of "being," spiritual beliefs in a heavenly afterlife permitted nineteenth-century viewers to meditate on the perpetuation, rather than the impermanence, of existence. While this complex historical dimension of post-mortem imagery - a dimension largely ignored by Barthes - provides the central focus of my dissertation, I will also analyze how these images were produced, commissioned, displayed, viewed, touched, cherished, and otherwise utilized in antebellum American culture.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A child’s death represents a traumatic loss, which can be understood as a crisis impacting on the family as a functioning unit. The purpose of the current study was to investigate grief and resilience in families in which a child has died, while specifically focusing on the internal resistance resource of family hardiness. A cross-sectional research design was implemented concurrently with intensive interviews conducted according to the principles of grounded theory. In total, 35 bereaved parents from the Western Cape participated in the study as representatives of 23 families. The participants each completed three questionnaires, a biographical questionnaire, the Family Hardiness Index and the Family Attachment and Changeability Index 8. Pearson and Spearman correlational analyses indicated significant positive correlations between family hardiness scores (including scores on the subscales for commitment, challenge and control) and family adaptation (measured by use of the Family Attachment and Changeability Index 8). Significant associations were also found between certain biographical variables and family hardiness. Intensive interviews were, furthermore, conducted with participants representing 12 different families. The analysis of interviewtranscriptions resulted in the formulation of various thematic categories, such as grief-reactions, continuing bonds, external support, religion, as well as the core category of family hardiness. A grounded theory was thus developed concerning grief and resilience in families in which a child has died. The results of the study reveal the importance of qualitative methods to explore the unique experiences of bereaved parents and families with the purpose of constructing applied interventions on the family level. The family hardiness concept was also clarified and shown to be a possible resistance resource conducive to family adaptation following the loss of a child.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die dood van `n kind is `n traumatiese verlies, wat beskou kan word as `n krisis wat `n impak het op die gesin as `n funksionerende eenheid. Die doelwit van die huidige studie was om verdriet en veerkragtigheid in gesinne waarin `n kind oorlede is, te ondersoek, met `n spesifieke fokus op die interne weerstandsbron van gesinsgehardheid. `n Dwars-snit opname navorsingsontwerp is gebruik in oorleg met intensiewe onderhoude, wat volgens die beginsels van gegronde teorie gevoer is. In totaal is 35 ouers, woonagtig in die Wes-Kaap, betrek by die studie, wat opgetree het as verteenwoordigers van 23 gesinne. Die deelnemers het elk drie vraelyste voltooi, naamlik `n biografiese vraelys, die Gesinsgehardheid Indeks en die Gesinsgehegtheid en Veranderlikheid Indeks 8. Pearson en Spearman korrelasie-berekeninge het aangedui dat gesinsgehardheid-tellings (asook die tellings op die subskale vir toewyding, uitdaging en beheer) beduidend positief korreleer met gesinsaanpassing (gemeet met die Gesinsgehegtheid en Veranderlikheid Indeks 8). Beduidende verhoudings is ook gevind tussen sekere biografiese veranderlikes en gesinsgehardheid. Verder is intensiewe onderhoude gevoer met die verteenwoordigers van 12 gesinne. Die ontleding van onderhoud-transkripsies het gelei tot die formulering van verskeie tematiese kategorieë, naamlik verdriet-reaksies, die voortdurende verbintenis, eksterne ondersteuning en godsdiens, asook die kern-kategorie van gesinsgehardheid. `n Gegronde teorie is sodoende ontwikkel, wat betrekking het op verdriet en veerkragtigheid in gesinne waarin `n kind oorlede is. Die resultate van die studie wys op die belang van kwalitatiewe metodes om die uniekheid van bedroefde ouers en gesinne se ervarings te verken met die doel om gepaste intervensies op gesinsvlak te ontwikkel. Die konsep van gesinsgehardheid is ook verhelder en aangedui as `n moontlike weerstandsbron, wat bevorderlik is vir gesinne se aanpassing ná die verlies van `n kind.

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior
O Brasil à um paÃs marcado pela violÃncia. Ela tem vitimizado grande parte da populaÃÃo, em especial jovens com menos de 19 anos, na maioria negros e pobres. Muitos destes jovens encontram-se nas ruas em busca do prÃprio sustento e da famÃlia, enquanto constroem um modo prÃprio de existÃncia, pautado em formas mÃltiplas de sociabilidade. Em torno deles circulam preconceitos e mitos que apontam em diversas direÃÃes, mas que falam de uma sociedade marcada por enormes diferenÃas sociais, que nÃo assume a responsabilidade por suas prÃprias crianÃas e adolescentes em situaÃÃo de vulnerabilidade social e pessoal, e que sequer os reconhece como sujeitos. A existÃncia destes sujeitos que compÃem o territÃrio urbano incomoda a muitos e, por vezes, tem provocado discussÃes em torno da revisÃo do Estatuto da CrianÃa e do Adolescente, da necessidade de se âlimparâ a cidade, trancafiando-os em prisÃes e reformatÃrios ou atà exterminÃ-los. Trata-se de idÃias que se fundamentam na concepÃÃo de que estas crianÃas e adolescentes sÃo seres incorrigÃveis, visto que sÃo afeitos ao mal, nÃo valorizam a vida e nada temem, nem mesmo a morte.Esta tese, Sentidos de Vida e Morte pra Meninos com ExperiÃncia de Moradia de Rua, se propÃe a discutir sobre os mecanismos que geram estes entendimentos em torno de crianÃas e adolescentes com experiÃncia de moradia de rua, referendando-se em Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari e Rolnik, autores que concebem o socius como usina de produÃÃo de verdades, realidades e subjetividades. Nesta perspectiva, ela objetiva tambÃm conhecer os sentidos que estes jovens atribuem à vida e à morte, com o intuito de romper com os mitos e modelizaÃÃes que intentam defini-los. O que seria a vida para crianÃas e adolescentes que pautam uma sociabilidade no complexo espaÃo urbano? Como estes jovens concebem a prÃpria existÃncia? Que sentidos atribuem à morte? O que hà de vida na morte? O que hà de morte na vida? Por que â e para que â viver? Por que â e para que â morrer? Estas sÃo as perguntas norteadoras deste estudo. Como proposta teÃrico-metodolÃgica de investigaÃÃo, optou-se pela SociopoÃtica, em virtude de ela conceber o pensar como um exercÃcio em que se articulam conceitos e afetos, alÃm de introduzir o grupo como unidade de referÃncia na produÃÃo de conhecimento, aqui entendido como o grupo-pesquisador. à guisa dos resultados da pesquisa, o grupo-pesquisador produziu conceitos plurais em torno da vida e da morte, os quais foram interpretados à luz do pensamento complexo de Morin. Dentre os conceitos produzidos destacam-se vida e morte como caminhos articulados ao bem e ao mal; vida e morte furacÃes, vida-labirinto, vida-jogo, morte-revelaÃÃo, morte-ponte-escura, casa-escura, monstro destruidor, manifestando o quanto a violÃncia tem marcado as formas de subjetivaÃÃo de crianÃas e adolescentes com experiÃncia de moradia de rua.
Brazil is a country marked by violence. It has victimized a large population, particularly young age of 19, mostly black and poor. Many of these young people are on the streets in pursuit of their own living and family, while building their own way of existence, based on multiple forms of sociability. Around them circle prejudices and myths that point in different directions, but they speak of a society marked by huge social disparities, which assumes no responsibility for their own children and adolescents in situations of social vulnerability and personal, and not even recognize them as social subjects.The existence of these subjects that make up the urban territory bothers many and sometimes has led discussions on the revision of the Statute for Children and Adolescents, the need for "clean" the city, shutting them in prisons and reformatories or to exterminate them. These are ideas that are based on the notion that these children and teens are incorrigible beings, since they are accustomed to evil, do not value life and fear nothing, not even death. This thesis, Meanings of Life and Death for Children with Experience House Street, aims to discuss on the mechanisms that generate these understandings about children and adolescents with experience of street housing, endorsing on Foucault, Deleuze, Guattari and Rolnik, authors who design the socius as a factory for the production of truths, realities and subjectivities. In this perspective, it also aims to understand the meanings they attach to the young life and death, with the intention of breaking with the myths and model calculations that attempt to define them. What would life for children and adolescents who guided a complex sociality in urban space? How these young people perceive their own existence? What meanings attributed to death? What's life in death? What is death in life? Why - and what - live? Why - and what - to die? These are the questions guiding this study. As the theoretical and methodological investigation, we chose to Poetry Society because of her design thinking as an exercise in which they articulate concepts and feelings, and introduces the group as a reference in the knowledge production, defined here as the group researcher. By way of research results, the research group produced around plural concepts of life and death, which were interpreted in light of the complex thought of Morin. Among the concepts produced stand out life and death as articulated pathways to good and evil, life and hurricanes death, life-maze, game, life, death, revelation, death bridge dark, dark house, monster destroyer, expressing how much violence has marked the forms of subjectivity of children and adolescents with experience of housing street.

Streszczenie:
This study focuses on children’s cognitive understanding of the concept of death from a scientific perspective. The investigation is conducted through the sub-concepts of understanding death - irreversibility, inevitability, universality and non-functionality – derived principally from the work of Jean Piaget. I propose within this study that children’s understanding of these subconcepts is mirrored by their understanding of astronomy as the concept of death includes the idea of hidden phenomena, disappearing, existence, and non-existence, alternation or seriation (death after life) and time. Whilst these concepts are part of other sciences such as physics, cosmology and mathematics, these particular phenomena are only found in the scientific field of astronomy. Specifically, therefore, instead of investigating their understanding of the concept of death through the knowledge of cessation, it is an investigation of their knowledge of the concept of time. The study thus includes the concept of time within the sub-concepts of death to judge the children’s understanding of death. The study employs qualitative methods, uses the interpretive paradigm, and relies on investigating the children’s knowledge of astronomy in order to find out how they construct their understanding. This is related to the common cognitive thinking that children do in their daily life with the phenomena of astronomy. To support this investigation, two common children’s stories are used as tools of the study, in order to probe their cognitive thinking. The first story focuses on the concept of death. The second story focuses on the knowledge of astronomy. The sample includes 21 children from ages 4 to 9 years. The results show that children have a schema of cognitive thinking based on inferences and scientific knowledge that enables them to understand the concept of death beginning at age four. They are able to make logical inferences inductively and deductively. They show that they have developed cognitive concepts, which allows them to classify scientific from non-scientific knowledge. Their understanding of the concept of time and the phenomena of astronomy support them in understanding that death is inevitable, universal, irreversible and non-functional. Children in this sample reflect that they understand non-functionality as they relate it to the concepts of non-existence, invisibility and disappearance from the environment. This study finds that educational intervention can confirm these insights. Inductive and deductive strategies can be used when dealing with the concept of death. The study also sheds light on children’s knowledge of astronomy as a way to acquaint children with the concept of death as scientific knowledge.

Children’s experience with death is a normative experience occurring around 8 years of age for most (Knight, Elfenbein, & Capozzi, 2000). Though this is an expected part of childhood, the need for and effectiveness of bereavement support for children is outlined in the literature as these experiences can put children at risk for emotional and behavioral difficulties (Samide & Stockton, 2002; Siddaway, Wood, Schulz, and Trickey, 2015). The current presentation outlines the exploratory implementation of grief support groups in a middle and elementary school for children dealing with the death of a loved one to support them in their grief. These 5 weekly sessions were designed and executed using evidence-based and peer-reviewed literature, which will be further discussed in this presentation, along with the theoretical perspective through which this project was approached. Finally, the tool developed to evaluate the outcomes of these sessions will be shared in conjunction with the end results.

Vaikai žiūrėdami televizorių praleidžia ženklią savo laisvalaikio dalį. Animaciniai filmukai, viena iš neatskiriamų televizijos tinklelio dalių, išimtinai orientuota į vaikus. Pastarieji yra imlūs perduodamai informacijai, kuri ne visuomet gali atitikti realybę. Viena iš sričių, – mirties ir ją lydinčių emocijų adekvatus suvokimas. Tyrimo problema. Keliami šie probleminiai klausimai: ar 6-8 metų vaikai geba suvokti mirtį ir kiek šiam suvokimui turi įtakos animaciniuose filmukuose demonstruojami mirties aktai? Darbo objektas – 6-8 m. vaikų mirties suvokimas. Darbo tikslas – nustatyti 6-8 metų vaikų mirties suvokimą šiuolaikinės animacijos kontekste. Darbo uždaviniai: 1) atskleisti teorinius vaikų mirties suvokimo raidos aspektus; 2) ištirti 6-8 metų vaikų mirties suvokimą; 3) nustatyti animacinių filmukų poveikį 6-8 metų vaikų mirties suvokimui. Teorijoje dažniausiai išskiriami penki mirties komponentai: neišvengiamumas, universalumas, baigtinumas, negrįžtamumas, priežastingumas, kuriuos vaikai ir suaugę suvokia skirtingai. Išskirtų mirties komponentų suvokimas skiriasi priklausomai nuo amžiaus: iki 6 metų prasčiausiai suvokiami baigtinumo, priežastingumo komponentai. Iki devintų metų pabaigos formuojasi neišvengiamumo komponento supratimas. Tyrimo metu, naudojant mirties sampratos klausimyną, nustatytas tiesioginis ryšys tarp amžiaus ir mirties sampratos (komponentų suvokimo). Kuo jaunesnis vaikas, tuo daugiau suvokimo klaidų. Geriausiai tiriamieji supranta mirties... [toliau žr. visą tekstą]
Children spend a significant part of their leisure time watching television. Cartoons, one of the inseparable parts of the TV grid, exclusively focused on children. Last-mentioned are susceptible to transmitting information, which does not always correspond to reality. One of the areas - death and its accompanying emotions adequate perception. Problem of research. Raised problem questions: are 6-8 years old children able to understand death and how much this perception is affected by modern cartoon demonstration of death acts? The object – 6-8 years old children death perception. The aim of research – to identify 6-8 year-old children perception of death concept in context of modern animation. Tasks: 1) to reveal theoretical aspects of children death concept development; 2) to explore 6-8 year old children concept of death; 3) to identify influence of animation to 6-8 year old children to perception of death. In theory usually distinguished five components of death: inevitability, universality, finality, inevitability, causality, which children and adults perceived differently. These components of death perception vary depending on age: 6 years poorly understood finality and causality components. By the end of nine year emerging understanding of inevitability component. After interview of eleven children using death concept questionnaire doesn’t found significant difference between boys and girls perceptions of death. It is observed that there is a direct...

Objectives: To describe the characteristics of children who died and their modes of dying in a South African Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Design: Retrospective review of data extracted from the Child Healthcare Problem Identification Programme (Child PIP)and the PICU summary system (admission and death records) on children of any age who died in the PICU between 01 January 2013 and 31 December 2017. Setting: Single-centre tertiary institution. Patients: All children who died during PICU admission were included. Measurements and Main Results: Four-hundred and fifty-one (54% male; median (IQR) age 7 (1-30) months) patients died in PICU on median (IQR) 3 (1-7) days after PICU admission; 103 (22.8%) had a cardiac arrest prior to PICU admission. Mode of death in 23.7% (n=107) was withdrawal of life sustaining therapies; 36.1% (n=163) died after limitation of life sustaining therapies; 22.0% (n=99) died after failed resuscitation and 17.3% (n=78) were diagnosed brain dead. Ultimately, 270 (60%) children died after the decision to limit or withdraw life sustaining therapies. There was no difference in the number of deaths during office and after-hours periods (45.5% vs. 54%; p = 0.07). Severe sepsis (21.9%) was the most common condition associated with death, followed by cardiac disease (18.6%).Ninety-four (20.8%) patients were readmitted to the PICU within the same year; 278 (61.6%) had complex chronic disorders. During the last phase of life, 75.0% (n=342) were on inotropes, 95.9% (n=428) were ventilated, 12.0% (n=45) received inhaled nitric oxide and 10.8% (n=46) renal replacement therapy. Only 1.5% (n=7) of children became organ donors and postmortems were done in 47.2% (n=213) of the patients. Conclusions: Most PICU deaths occurred after a decision to limit or withdraw life-sustaining therapy. Severe sepsis was the most common condition associated with death. Referral for organ donation was extremely rare.

Streszczenie:
This thesis is concerned with the lived experience of nineteen Zimbabwean migrants I interviewed in the UK who were forced apart from their children for a lengthy period of time by the UK immigration system. It explores the processes through which these migrants were rendered rightless in their country of birth where their government directly threatened their physical lives and how they were forced to migrate to the UK without their children in search of human rights and protection. However, upon arrival in the UK, these migrants' rightlessness was reinforced as the UK immigration and asylum law affords only the most minimal of rights to asylum seekers and other categories of forced migrants. The thesis attempts to uncover the extent to which the Zimbabwean migrants were denied full access to human rights, especially the rights to legally remain, work and to be reunited with their children in the UK. It also seeks to show how, over a period of time, these migrant parents' selves fell apart; they lost total control of their own lives in the UK and witnessed the disintegration of the connections they had to their children, partners, parents, friends and other kin left behind. The thesis argues that to be afforded partial rights, that is, the right to continue to live and breathe (bare life) but not the right to legally belong and/or to exercise personal autonomy is to be condemned to a living death. By exploring the sufferings and dehumanization processes of the Zimbabwean migrants, the thesis seeks to reveal the gap between the UK's rhetorical commitments with regards to promoting and protecting human rights, and the actual practice of its immigration regime.

Streszczenie:
Background: The death of a child can be a devastating experience for many parents; research suggests it results in an intense and enduring grief which can negatively impact on parents' psychological well-being. Parents with surviving children face the task of navigating their own grief and continuing to parent. Surviving children's responses to the loss of a sibling is complex and sometimes problematic; it is suggested that family functioning is a key aspect of the sibling's response. Psychological literature shows that sibling bereavement has been under-researched (Woodrow, 2007) with little attention given to the quality of the emotional relationship between parent and child, before and after sibling loss. Aims: Research to explore the stories of bereaved parents and how they experienced their emotional relationship with their surviving children after the death of another child can build on and expand existing literature; resulting in suggestions for clinical psychologist on how to better support surviving relationships at this difficult time. Methodology: Qualitative methods allow for richness, context and allow parents to tell stories of their emotional relationships with surviving children. Stories are the way in which we give order and meaning to the events in our lives (Gilbert, 2010). Consequently, a narrative analysis was viewed as the most epistemologically and ethically appropriate research method; and most appropriate to answer the research question. Analysis and Findings: Parents told stories of connection and disconnection in their emotional relationship with their surviving children after the death of another child in the family. Emotional connection and disconnection is influenced by the competing and potentially incompatible tasks of 'parenting' and 'grieving'. Stories of connection with surviving children were constructed as 'putting my living children first' and 'avoiding the fog' of grief; these stories illustrated less connection to the deceased child and parental grief. Conversely, stories of disconnection with surviving children were constructed as getting 'stuck in the fog' of grief and 'remembering'; these stories illustrated more connection to the deceased child and parental grief.
