Objectives To develop an alcohol intervention model that predicts life years (LYs), quality adjusted life years (QALYs), and healthcare costs classified by the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) screening tool and other various risk factors related to alcohol consumption. Furthermore, the developed model was transferred to the Thai setting. Methods Eight Scottish Health Surveys from 1995-2012 were linked to Scottish morbidity records and death records for the period 1981 to the end of 2013. Parametric survival analysis was used to estimate the hazard risks of first alcohol-related and non-alcohol related hospitalisations and deaths. For men and women, multivariate data analyses were applied separately for each gender in modelling the utility score, risks of subsequent hospitalisation and annual healthcare costs within the follow-up period. Risk profiles were used for the covariates of the models as follows: age, socio-economic status, health condition, alcohol drinking (i.e. AUDIT and binge drinking), smoking, body mass index, and physical activity. According to the under-reporting bias of alcohol consumption among the survey population, this study adjusted the reported alcohol consumption using alcohol sales data. Multiple imputation approach was applied to deal with missing data. A health-state transition model with annual cycle length was developed to predict LYs, QALYs, lifetime costs, and cost-effectiveness. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis was also performed to deal with parameter uncertainty. Moreover, a methodological transferability protocol of the Thai study was detailed. Results The sample size of the cohort was 46,230. The developed model showed the association between drinking and alcohol-related and non-alcohol related hospitalisations and deaths which were calculated as LYs and QALYs. Other risk factors were also taken into account that would likely affect the outcomes of interest. The modelling showed that an increasing AUDIT score and the number of cigarettes per day were associated with an increased risk of first alcohol-attributable hospitalisation. Predicted outcomes for a male aged 30 year with high-risk drinking levels (AUDIT >7) were worse than males with low risk drinking (AUDIT ≤7), with approximately 5 LY gained and 7 QALY gained. The same results for females were obtained for high-risk drinking (AUDIT >4) compared to low-risk drinking (AUDIT ≤4), with approximately 10 LY gained and 12 QALY gained. Furthermore, an economic evaluation was performed to compare the no-intervention situation with a hypothetical health promotion intervention - which aimed to stop drinking (measured by the AUDIT) and smoking (measured by the number of cigarettes per day) behaviours. To compare the costs and benefits of the hypothetical intervention and no intervention over the lifetime period, a within-trial analysis combined with the developed model was able to capture both short- and longer-term consequences (i.e. LYs, QALYs, and healthcare costs) of the intervention. Finally, the model was able to compare cost-effectiveness ratio between risk behaviours without the new intervention and the modified risk behaviours when the new intervention is implemented. Conclusions The study highlights the potential and importance of developing health economic models utilising data from routine national health surveys linked to national hospitalisation and death records. The developed framework can be used for further economic evaluation of alcohol interventions and other health behaviour change interventions. The framework can further be transferred to other country settings.

The main objective of this project is to investigate the costs and environmental impacts generated at the use phase of the machine tools. Machine tools are essential elements for the manufacturing sector. Cost estimation model has been developed based on previous studies. The cost model has 6 main groups: Energy, consumables, resources, waste, space and labour costs parameters. The importance of the use phase in the whole life cycle is underlined. This is related to the high energy consumptions of the machine. Therefore, special attention has been paid to the electricity consumption, developing an accurate model with a life cycle view: Apart from cutting energy, auxiliary machinery and stand-by situations has been defined in this model. The environmental impact analysis has been divided into material, use, disposal and transport categories, with special focus on consumables (cutting fluids, filters, cutting tools and lubricant oil) and energy consumption for the using phase. A LCA analysis in EcoScan software has been carried out with a real example: The FS-8000 milling machine. The analysis has confirmed that impacts related to the high electricity consumption during using phase are the most important burdens with almost 70% of the total impact. This is follow by hazardous oil disposal (13.9%), cutting tools (7.7%) and transport (6.6%). Last, a sensitivity study for environmental impacts has been conducted. The correlations between parameters have revealed that although the impact ranking determined from the EcoScan analysis is appropriate, there are some deviations when parameter variability is taken into account. Therefore, the report suggest conducting a sensitivity study along with the LCA for more precise results.

INTRODUÇÃO. O uso abusivo de álcool impõe alto custo econômico à sociedade O seu consumo está relacionado a importantes conseqüências adversas, como situações de intoxicação, a própria dependência, acidentes de carro, episódios de violência e outros. JUSTIFICATIVA. A discussão sobre o custo social do uso do álcool se mostra pertinente no Brasil, visto que seu impacto perpassa o acometimento apenas do paciente, mas também de outras esferas sociais onde este sujeito está inserido. OBJETIVOS. Estimar o custo social, ou seja, os custos direto (internações e atendimentos ambulatoriais) e indireto (mortalidade e incapacidade) das principais doenças diretamente relacionadas ao uso do álcool dependência ao álcool, cardiomiopatia alcoólica, gastrite alcoólica, doença alcoólica do fígado, pancreatite crônica induzida por álcool e síndrome alcoólica fetal no Brasil no ano de 2007. MATERIAL E MÉTODO. Trata-se de um estudo do tipo exploratório, descritivo e transversal. Foram considerados o total de internações, de atendimentos ambulatoriais e de registros de mortalidade hospitalar relativos às doenças diagnosticadas como causas diretas do abuso do álcool no Brasil no ano de 2007. Todos os dados foram coletados junto ao DATASUS (Departamento de Informática do SUS). O cálculo do custo social foi realizado a partir dos Anos de Vida Perdidos por Mortalidade e Incapacidade, multiplicados pelo valor do rendimento médio mensal de todos os trabalhos assalariados no Brasil, calculado por sexo e nível de escolaridade. RESULTADOS. O valor do Custo Social do uso do álcool no Brasil no ano de 2007 foi de R$8.562.680.331,00. Na formação desse valor, 79,67% corresponderam aos custos que ocorreram na população masculina. Nas regiões Norte, Nordeste, Centro-Oeste, Sudeste e Sul, os valores foram, respectivamente, R$255.097.103,00; R$1.025.139.711,00; R$935.799.783,00; R$4.829.791.323,00 e R$1.931.717.630,00. DISCUSSÃO. Na maioria dos diagnósticos, o maior valor do custo social encontra-se entre os anos 40-49, faixa etária de maior participação no mercado de trabalho brasileiro. Ou seja, os brasileiros que estão sofrendo os agravos do uso do álcool, ocasionando o maior impacto socioeconômico, são aqueles que, em tese, deveriam compor o grupo de pessoas da população economicamente ativa, contribuindo para o enriquecimento do país. A região Sul é a terceira maior em termos populacionais, a segunda de maior valor do custo social e a primeira com o maior percentual de padrão de consumo problemático, demonstrando que há uma relação direta entre o padrão de consumo de álcool e o impacto socioeconômico gerado pelo seu uso, uma vez que essa região, mesmo sendo a terceira mais populosa, assume o segundo lugar em termos de custo, já que é a região de maior prevalência de bebedores problemáticos. CONCLUSÃO. Os dados apresentados demonstram a necessidade de se investir em ações de prevenção e tratamento dirigidas a públicos distintos, como a população masculina, economicamente ativa e os residentes da região Sul do país. Porém, são apenas estimativas, tendo a necessidade de serem ampliados de modo a considerar todas as conseqüências advindas desse uso e que geram ônus ao país, para que seja possível promover subsídios concretos para a devida elaboração de políticas públicas, baseadas em evidências científicas para o benefício de todos
Alcohol abuse imposes high economical cost to society. It´s use is related to important adverse consequences such as intoxication, dependence, car accidents, violence episodes and others. MEAN. The debate around the social cost regarding alcohol consumption has been prove to be relevant in Brazil since it´s impact goes beyond the patient himself, but is also involved in other social spheres where he belongs. OBJECTIVE. To assess the social costs, direct (internments and outpatient appointments) and indirect (mortality and incapacity), of the main diseases related to alcohol consumption alcohol dependence, alcoholic cardiomiopathy, alcoholic gastrititis, alcoholic disease of the liver, chronic pancreatitis induced by alcohol and fetal alcoholic syndrome in Brazil in the year of 2007. MATERIAL AND METHOD. This is an exploratory, descriptive and transversal study. In this study we considered the total number of internments, of outpatient appointments, and of registrations of mortality related to diseases diagnosed as the cause of alcohol abuse that occurred in Brazil in 2007. All data were collected at DATASUS (Department of Computer Science of SUS). The calculation of the social costs was accomplished by multiplying the Disability Adjusted Life Years with the value of monthly medium income of all salaried works in Brazil, considering gender and education level. RESULTS. The total value of the social costs caused by alcohol consumption in Brazil in 2007 was R$8.562.680.331,00. 79,67% of this value corresponded to the male population. In the North, Northeast, Center-West, Southeast and South region, the values were R$255.097.103,00; R$1.025.139.711,00; R$935.799.783,00; R$4.829.791.323,00 and R$1.931.717.630,00 respectively. DISCUSSION. The majority of the diagnoses revealed that the biggest value of social costs is among people between 40 and 49 years old. People in this age group have the largest participation in the Brazilian job market. In other words, the Brazilians who suffer the worst effects of alcohol consumption are those who are part of the economically active population, therefore causing the largest socioeconomic impact. South region has the third largest population, second in value of social cost and first in prevalence of problematic alcohol consumption. This observation demonstrates that there is a direct relationship between the pattern of alcohol consumption and the socioeconomic impact by it´s use. Because the South region has the biggest prevalence of problematic drinkers, it stands as the second place in terms of social costs, even being the third most populous region. CONCLUSION. The present data demonstrates the need to invest in prevention and treatment directed to different targets: the economically active male population, and the residents of the South region of the country. Although we have presented here interesting estimates, further studies need to be made in order to become possible to promote concrete subsidies for the elaboration of public policy for the benefit of the whole country

Streszczenie:

El objetivo de esta tesis es, por un lado, conocer, comprender y visibilizar una creciente y significativa comunidad sikh que desde hace décadas habita en Barcelona y, por otro, analizar los cambios y las modificaciones en el cuerpo y la corporalidad como necesarios o pertinentes para la inserción y adaptación en un contexto nuevo tras el proceso migratorio. Dadas las particulares características del grupo de estudio, una comunidad en la que determinada corporalidad es en gran medida un elemento significante de su adscripción religiosa, en este trabajo se ha tratado de observar y analizar las transformaciones y las continuidades en el cuerpo y la corporalidad como parte del proceso de adaptación de los individuos sikhs inmigrados que habitan Barcelona. Para ello se parte de la idea del cuerpo —y por extensión la corporalidad-, como elemento a disposición de los individuos y grupos, a veces mediatizado por el contexto en el que habitan, pero también como lugar para la agencia; imbuido de ideologías político-religiosas, que pueden ser corporalizadas, pero también susceptible de ser negociadas en función de las coyunturas. Para el desarrollo de la investigación se ha llevado a cabo trabajo de campo etnográfico durante más de 18 meses mediante etnografía multisituada donde Barcelona, Londres, Delhi y el Panyab han sido lugares para el trabajo.
The aim of this doctoral thesis is, on the one hand, to know, understand and visibilize a significant and rising Sikh community that has been living in Barcelona for decades. On the other hand, it analyses the body modifications and the changes in corporeality which are necessaries and relevant for the insertion and adaptation in a new context after the migration process. Corporeality is a significant symbol of religious adscription therefore in this research we have observed and analyzed changes and continuities of the body and corporeality as part of the adaptation process of immigrant Sikhs inhabiting Barcelona. In this way, we start from the premise that bodies -and by extension the corporealities too- are elements at the disposal of individuals and groups that sometimes are determined by the context in which they live, but they are also a place for agency. Bodies are imbued with political and religious ideologies which can be explicitly embodied, but they are also capable of being negotiated depending on the circumstances. For this research I have done multi-sited ethnographic fieldwork for an eighteen-month period in Barcelona, London, Delhi and Punjab.

Nosso estudo visa a compreender as Representações Sociais do Kanaimî, do Piya san e do Tarenpokon no povo Macuxi, nas Malocas do Canta Galo e de Maturuca, localizadas na região Nordeste de Roraima. Objetivou aprofundar as ideias que os índios dessas localidades possuem sobre esses personagens da cultura, a fim de apresentar seus significados e relacioná-los à religiosidade. A pesquisa inicial foi bibliográfica, visando a observar como entendiam o Kanaimî, o Piyasan e o Tarenpokon no passado. Realizaram-se entrevistas que serviram de suporte na verificação das representações na atualidade, além das análises tendo como referência a teoria da representação social. O Kanaimî, como personagem espiritual e protagonizador de constantes ataques violentos, manifesta- se e promove terror aos índios. Isso faz com que os índios realizem uma série de rituais visando a afastá-los de seus caminhos. O Piyasan, como curador da saúde e de diversos problemas espirituais dos indígenas Macuxi, medeia a solução desses problemas junto aos entes espirituais o máximo possível. O Tarenpokon, também como curador com capacidade de proporcionar a saúde, realiza sessões de rezas que agem sobre os diversos bichos, para afastá-los ou convencê-los a curar as pessoas. Procuramos relacionar essas explicações com a cosmovisão dos Macuxi para entendermos suas manifestações religiosas. Tomamos como base os estudos históricos e socioantropológicos de aspectos religiosos existentes sobre os Macuxi que estão relacionados aos personagens Kanaimî, Piyasan e Tarenpokon ampliando suas representações sociais e especificando os significados que possuem

The initial research was literature in order to observe how the Kanaimî understood, and the shaman Tarenpokon in the past. We conduct interviews, which were used to support the verification of representations today, and analysis with reference to the theory of social representation.

Resumo: Essa pesquisa teve como objeto a obra Usos e Costumes dos Bantos, escrita em 1913 pelo missionário e etnógrafo suíço Henri Junod (18631934). Seu trabalho etnográfico no sul de Moçambique, particularmente com o estudo do costumes do que foi denominado grupo "tsonga", teve relevância em vários temas do debate antropológico. Porém a historiografia da disciplina se restringiu, majoritariamente, ao seu argumento sobre parentesco e evolução social exposto pelo texto basilar de Radcliffe-Brown "O irmão da mãe na África Austral". Nessa pesquisa buscou-se explorar outras contribuições etnográficas do autor, a partir de uma leitura detalhada de sua principal obra. Para isso, outros escritos, e versões da mesma obra, foram incluídos no estudo a fim de aprofundar nas idéias do autor. Dessa forma, a pesquisa apresenta contribuições de Junod sobre temas como linhagem, ritos de passagem. sistemas de casamento e sobre a relação entre norma social e comportamento. Apresenta-se também um breve estudo sobre a trajetória de Junod e a relação com sua obra. O olhar da historiografia da antropologia dirigido à obra de Junod a partir do debate estabelecido com Radcliffe-Brown relegou o pensamento de Junod à matriz evolucionista. Porém, com essa pesquisa, mostra-se que há outros pontos obscurecidos até então que o relacionam também à crescente corrente da antropologia social
Abstract: The object of this research is the work Ufe in a $outh African Tribe, wrote in 1913 by the Swiss missionary and ethnographer Henri Junod (1863-1934). His ethnographic work in the south of Mozambique, particularly with the costumes' study of what had been named "tsonga" group, had relevance in several themes in the anthropological debate. However, the anthropological historiography restricted itself, mostly, to Junod's argument about kinship and social evolution exposed through the Radcliffe-Brown's basilar article "The mother's brother in South Africa". In this research, it was explored others ethnographical contributions of Junod, found through a detail reading of Ufe in a South African Tribe. Other texts was used too, inclusively others versions of the work in question, with the objective of deepening in the author's ideas. In this matter, this dissertation presents Junod's contributions in themes as lineage, rites of passage, systems of n:arriage and the relation between social norm and behavior. Also, it was possible to present a brief study of the Junod's trajectory and its relation with his work. The Radcliffe-Brown's vision about Junod' s ideas located him in the evolutionary matrix. However, with this research, it was demonstrated that others elements, that had been obscured until now, relates Junod to the growing current of the social anthropology

Streszczenie:

En Medellín, Colombia, existen una serie indígenas migrados desde sus comunidades que han construido un cabildo pluriétnico, el cabildo urbano Chibcariwak, y que reivindican que se puede ser indígena viviendo en la ciudad. Por otro lado, tanto la organización indígena de la región, la Organización Indígena de Antioquia – OIA –, como el Estado colombiano cuestionan la “autenticidad” identitaria de estos indígenas que viven en contexto urbano por el hecho de que no cumplen con una serie de características – que vivan en contacto con la Naturaleza, que practiquen rituales propios, etc. –. En este trabajo se cuestiona el discurso indigenista que obliga a estas personas a comportarse de una manera determinada si quieren “conservar” la identidad, determinando cuál es el locus enuntiationis desde el que se construye, y también la lógica que hay detrás de este discurso, que lo que hace, al fin y al cabo, es reproducir a nivel epistémico las relaciones de dominio y explotación propias de la colonialidad. En definitiva, este trabajo busca determinar si el movimiento indígena actual que hay en esta región de Colombia representa una alteridad, o bien actúa como un agente más del sistema-mundo moderno/colonial.
In Medellin, Colombia, there are indigenous migrated from thier communities who have built a multi-ethnic cabildo, the urban cabildo Chibcariwak, and they claim that can be indigenous living in the city. On the other hand, both the indigenous organization of the region, the Indigenous Organization of Antioquia – OIA – such as the Colombian State identity question the "authenticity" of these indigenous people living in urban context by the fact that do not comply with a series of features – living in contact with Nature, to practice own rituals, etc. –. In this paper, the indigenous discourse that forces these people to behave in a certain way if they want to "preserve" the identity is questioned, determining what is the locus enuntiationis from which it is built, and also the logic behind this discourse is questioned, that what, in the final analysis, is to reproduce in a epistemic level the domain and exploitation relations of coloniality. In short, this study seeks to determine whether the current indigenous movement is in this region of Colombia represents an alternative, or acts as an agent more of the modern/colonial world- system.

Resumo: O Mapiko é manifestação cultural do povo Maconde, originário da província de Cabo Delgado, norte de Moçambique. Mapiko é o nome dado à manifestação cultural tradicional e à máscara utilizada por ela. Tal manifestação mistura música, dança e cena. Rodeado de mistérios e segredos; ao som de batuques e cantos tradicionais, o mascarado realiza sua dança. A manifestação, tendo como base o imaginário do povo Maconde, apropria-se do mundo espiritual e cria a convicção da existência de ligação lógica entre o dançarino mascarado e as suas crenças. O Mapiko possibilita, através da arte, a representação dos diferentes modos de estar na vida espiritual, usando a força da sua história e do seu cotidiano, transmitindo em cada dança as suas convicções. Este trabalho aborda aspectos do Mapiko tais como sua origem, tradição, cantos, batuques, máscaras e especificidades da dança realizada pelo mascarado. A pesquisa também reflete sobre questões acerca dos segredos, mistérios e limites da pesquisa acadêmica sobre tal tradição. A tese inicia-se com a descrição do trabalho de campo realizado em Moçambique em 2014 e explora as descobertas e dificuldades encontradas. O trabalho propõe, portanto, ao leitor, um mergulho no universo do Mapiko, passeando entre mistérios, cores, aromas, imagens e sabores do povo Maconde. A tese é acompanhada por um DVD que contém um documentário sobre o Mapiko e o processo de aprendizagem vivenciado pela atriz-pesquisadora em Moçambique
Abstract: Mapiko is a cultural expression of Maconde¿s people original from Cabo Delgado¿s province on the north of Mozambique. Mapiko is the traditional cultural expression and the mask used on it. This expression brings together music, dance and scene. Surrounded by mystery and secrecy; to the sound of drums and traditional song, the masquerade holds his dance. The expression has its base on the imaginary of Maconde¿s people who appropriates the spiritual world, creating the belief of the existence of a logical link between the masquerade dancer and his beliefs. Trough art, Mapiko makes possible the representation of different ways of being in the spiritual life. It uses the power of its stories and its everyday aspects conveying in each dance its beliefs. The present work addresses the aspects of Mapiko such as its origins, tradition, songs, drumming, masks and particularities in the dance performed by the masquerade. The research also reflects on issues about the secrets, mystery and limits of the academic research about the theme. The dissertation begins with the description of the fieldwork in 2014 in Mozambique and explores its discoveries and difficulties. The work propose the reader to dive into Mapiko¿s universe, along with its mysteries, colours, aromas, images and flavours of Maconde¿s people. A DVD accompanies the dissertation which contains a documentary about Mapiko and the learning process experienced by the actress-researcher in Mozambique

Resumo: Presenciamos a subordinação da cultura aos ditames do capital, a paisagem, como mais um produto à venda vem transformando os sentidos dos territórios e do patrimônio cultural. É um processo que vem alterando materialmente e simbolicamente o território e seus usos, por meio da refuncionalização turística que vem sofrendo o patrimônio cultural de Cunha. A apropriação de velhas paisagens e a reterritorialização de novas são responsáveis por uma nova reconfiguração espacial. Compreender a dimensão sócio-espacial dessas transformações em Cunha, com referencias culturais tão latentes, é o que nos propomos nessa análise
Abstract: We observe the subordination of the culture to the dictates of the capital, the scenery or landscapes like one more product for sale is transforming the senses of the territories and of the cultural inheritance. It is a process what it is altering materially and symbolically the territory and his uses, through the tourist refuncionalização that is suffering the cultural inheritance of Wedge. The appropriation of old sceneries and the reterritorialização of territory are responsible for a new space reconfiguration. It is what we intend this analysis understand the relation of dimension socio-space of these transformations and the dimension in Cunha, and with references cultural so latent in the region

Resumo: Este trabalho tem por objetivo compreender a vida cotidiana nos domicílios do termo da cidade de Belém, entre os anos de 1808 e 1830. Nossa investigação percoreu tanto a composição humana como material desses espaços, revelando estratégias para a manutenção e o incremento das condições de vida. Para o sucesso destas estratégias, as redes de sociabilidades cumpriam papel importante, suprindo necessidades materiais ou legitimando pedidos e requerimentos junto à Justiça. Em uma sociedade onde as vidas materiais e sociais estavam interrelacionadas, era importante que os interesses entre indivíduos entrassem em acordo, para que as relações se mantivessem estáveis. Contudo, por vezes as diferenças de interesses poderiam gerar conflitos e a necessidade do rearranjo dessas relações
Abstract: The objective of this work is to understand the daily life in the domiciles of Belém, between the years of 1808 and 1830. Our inquiry includes the human and material composition of these spaces, disclosing strategies for the maintenance and the increment of the daily life conditions. For the success of these strategies, the relationships fulfilled an important paper, satisfying material necessities or legitimizing petitions next to Justice. In a society where material and social lives were interrelated, it was important that the interests between individuals entered in agreement, so that relations kept steady. However, for times the differences of interests would generate conflicts and then, rearrangements were necessary in order to keep the relations flowing

Resumo: Nos últimos anos, o consumo de chás aumentou significativamente em função da divulgação dos benefícios à saúde, provenientes da sua ingestão, sendo considerado importante na dieta devido ao elevado potencial antioxidante. No entanto, os estudos sobre o teor de compostos com propriedades antioxidantes encontrados em chás brasileiros são escassos. Devido a estudos que comprovam a presença de fitoquímicos bioativos em chás, este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o conteúdo de compostos fenólicos totais (CFT), flavonóides totais (FT) e a capacidade antioxidante (DPPH¿ e ß-Caroteno/ linoleato) das infusões de 9 ervas provenientes da Região Amazônica: Agirú (Chrysobalanus icaco), Açoita-cavalo (Luehea speciosa), Capim-santo (Cymbopogon citratus), Erva-cidreira (Lippia alba), Graviola (Annona muricata), Jucá (Caesalpinia ferrea), Pata-de-vaca (Bauhinia forticata), Parirí (Arrabidaea chica) e Sacaca comum (Croton spp). Além disso, os compostos fenólicos presentes nos extratos metanólicos das folhas de três espécies foram separados e quantificados pela técnica de cromatografia líquida de alta eficiência (CLAE) acoplado ao detector de arranjo de diodos (DAD). A metodologia analítica consistiu de uma extração aquosa (infusão) para análise de compostos fenólicos e flavonóides totais, bem como para as análises de atividade antioxidante. Para análise por CLAE, os compostos fenólicos foram extraídos com metanol, seguida de hidrólise ácida, com o objetivo de liberar as formas agliconas. Com base nos resultados obtidos, em relação aos compostos fenólicos totais, das nove infusões analisadas, três apresentaram os maiores teores: C. férrea (721,08 mg EAG/g), L. speciosa (540,90 mg EAG/g) e C. icaco (497,79 mg EAG/g). Por outro lado, para flavonóides totais, a erva L. speciosa e a L. alba foram as que apresentaram os maiores teores (12,80 e 15,42 mg EC/g, respectivamente). Para as análise de antioxidantes pelos método citados, o Jucá (C. férrea), foi o que obteve o maior resultado. As amostras que apresentaram o maior teor de compostos fenólicos totais, foram posteriormente analisadas por CLAE; Para efeito comparativo, o chá verde comercial (Camellia sinensis) também foi analisado por CLAE. Os resultados obtidos da identificação e quantificação foram, em mg.g-1 para cada uma das amostras: Agirú (ácido gálico 0,45, miricetina 0,78 e quercetina 0,14); Açoita-cavalo ((+)- catequina 1,20 e quercetina 0,14); Jucá (ácido gálico 0,59 e quercetina 0,13); Chá-verde (ácido gálico 0,24, (-)- epicatequina 2,44, (+)- catequina 0,68 e quercetina 0,66). Para as ervas estudadas o Jucá foi o que se destacou, apresentando o maior teor para análise de compostos fenólicos totais e potencial antioxidante para as metodologias aplicadas, o que indica seu possível benefício à saúde o que pode estimular novos estudos sobre a caracterização mais aprofundada sobre seus constituintes
Abstract: In recent years, consumption of tea has increased significantly as a result of the health benefits derived from those ingestion. Moreover, tea has been considered important in the diet because of the high antioxidant potential. However, there is a lack of studies on the content of compounds with antioxidant properties found in Brazilian teas. Due to some studies that have proved the presence of these bioactive phytochemicals in tea, this work aimed to evaluate the content of total phenolic compounds (TPC), total flavonoids (TF) and antioxidant capacity (DPPH ¿ and ß-carotene / linoleate) of 9 herbs infusions from the Amazon region: Agirú (Chrysobalanus icaco), Aloita-cavalo (Luehea speciosa), Capimsanto (Luehea speciosa), Herb (Lippia alba), Graviola (Annona muricata), Juca (Caesalpinia ferrea), Pata-de-vaca (Bauhinia forticata), Parirí (Arrabidaea chica) and common Sacaca (Croton spp.) Furthermore, the phenolic compounds present in methanol extracts of the leaves of three species were separated and quantified by liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with a diode array detector (DAD). The analytical methodology consisted in aqueous extraction (infusion) for the analysis of phenolics and flavonoids, as well as for the analysis of antioxidant activity. For HPLC analysis, the phenolic compounds were extracted with methanol, followed by acid hydrolysis in order to release the aglycone forms. Based on the results obtained for total phenolic compounds, from the nine infusions assayed, three showed the highest levels: C. férrea (669,94 mg GAE/g¿1), C. icaco (494,13 mg GAE/g¿1) and L. speciosa (459,23 mg GAE/g¿1). On the other hand, for total flavonoids, L. speciosa and L. alba herbs showed the highest content (12,85 and 15.42 mg CE/g¿1, respectively). For the capacity antioxidant analysis by the mentioned methods, Jucá (C. férrea) has showed higher values. The samples that exhibited higher levels for total phenolic compounds were analyzed by HPLC: Agirú (Chrysobalanus icaco), Açoita-cavalo (Luehea speciosa) and Jucá (Caesalpinia ferrea). For comparative purposes, commercial green tea (Camellia sinensis) was also analyzed by HPLC. The results for phenolic compounds identification and quantification were, in mg.g¿1 for each sample: Agirú (0.45 of gallic acid, 0,78 of quercetin and 0,14 of myricetin); Açoita-cavalo (1,20 of (+)-catechin and 0,14 of quercetin), Jucá (0,59 of gallic acid and 0,13 of quercetin), and green tea (0,24 of gallic acid, 2,44 of (-)-epicatechin, 0,68 of (+)¿catechin and 0,66 of quercetin). For the herbs studied, Jucá was the most remarkable one, presenting the highest levels for the total phenolic compounds content and for the antioxidant potential by the applied methodologies, which indicates their potential health benefits that can stimulate new studies on the further characterization of their constituents

The 'collapse' of communism in the Soviet Union, and the resulting shockwave that unsettled the organised left across the world, came to define and close the story of the twentieth cenrury attempt to build for socialism. For the organisations of the British left, the period of the 19805 and 19905 saw major shifts both in attitude and organisational structure, weakening the strength of positions and influence that they held within the labour and union movements. However, following the beginning of the economic crisis in 2008, the concept of socialism has been revisited in academic discussion with the aim of reinvigorating it for the twenty-fIrst cennny. Drawing on an oral historical approach, the research presented here in thirtyfour interviews with left-wing activists, provides a new ground-level narrative on the development and operationalisation of socialist political thought and action. It is a narrative that contextualises established political commentary on socialism in Britain in the words of those who work towards a socialist society, founding our understanding in lived experience. This thesis develops and implements an analytical model based in generational theory in order to examine the development of political consciousness simultaneously in the short and long term; across the horizontal and vertical transmission of ideas and experiences within left-wing organisations and among activists. It argues that a generational approach allows a unique and vital perspective in understanding the social construction of ideology, analysis and purposeful action for social change. It provides a language in which we may better understand the complexity of the negotiated relationship between locational circumstances and canonical narratives; personal experience and ideological adherence. The thesis argues that this negotiated relationship is a dynamic two-way process of interaction, and that political consciousness must be understood in the locational appropriation of canonical history; the canon as a product of collective experience.

Vertebrate males frequently carry higher numbers of parasites than females. This bias in parasite loads could be a consequence of sexual selection. Grouping species are also assumed to be afflicted with larger numbers of parasites than solitary animals and associated costs of this parasitism could vary with group size or structure. I examined sex-biased parasitism and the influence of group size on parasite loads in Cape ground squirrels (Xerus inauris), a highly social species that occurs in the arid regions of southern Africa. Males carried three times as many ectoparasites as females, but females harbored nearly three times more endoparasites than males. Amount of time spent (per hour) autogrooming was similar between males and females, but amount time spent allogrooming by adult female was over eleven times that of adult males. Longer allogrooming of group members could be decreasing the numbers of ectoparasites of group members and ultimately the group. Males infrequently give or receive allogrooming and travel in very large home ranges, potentially increasing their exposure to ectoparasites. However, movement throughout a large home range may result in males foraging in areas with lower densities of fecal pellets, which could explain the lower endoparasite loads observed in males. When I considered the age class of group members, female age classes were similarly parasitized but male age classes were not. Sub-adult males carried similar ectoparasite loads to adult males and similar endoparasite loads to adult females. This result is of particular interest because sub-adult males are becoming scrotal but typically remain in the group until adulthood. Sexual selection does appear to influence parasite loads in this species, and parasite removal or avoidance potentially mitigates individual parasite loads and their associated costs. Parasites can be detrimental to the health, longevity, and reproduction of their hosts, but these costs are rarely quantified. I removed ectoparasites and endoparasites from Cape ground squirrels for three months and evaluated changes in female body mass, reproduction, burrow use, and grooming in response to parasite removal. Female body mass did not increase with parasite removal, but reproductive success (per capita offspring raised to emergence) increased nearly four-fold, while allogrooming by treated females decreased. Since breeding is highest in the late winter dry season when fewer resources are available, the impact of parasites may be highest during this season. Lactation and gestation are the most physiological stressful processes that females undergo, and the dramatic increase in reproductive success in treated females suggests that these females are able to allocate more resources to reproduction than females afflicted with parasites. These results suggest that studies investigating reproduction and fecundity must consider the vulnerability of the host to parasite infection and the potential impact on reproductive success.

Streszczenie:

El presente estudio se centra sobre el análisis de la creencia en la bilocación registrada en el área centro-meridional de Cerdeña. Sobre la base de los datos recogidos en el curso de un trabajo de campo, describo la creencia según la cual ciertas personas culpables frente a la comunidad eran condenadas en vida a salir en espíritu como si fuesen almas en pena ante mortem. Los protagonistas de esta creencia eran los ricos propietarios cuyas culpas eran principalmente las de haber explotado al pobre sin medios para defenderse, la avaricia, la práctica de la usura, la incorporación de tierras de manera ilícita y deshonesta y los abusos contra las sirvientes. Con este trabajo se intenta analizar la creencia en la bilocación de los ricos terratenientes sobre la base de las afirmaciones directas de los informantes e interlocutores entrevistados. A través de sus relatos fue posible describir la figura del condenado en su preciso contexto, que remonta a mediados del siglo pasado. El análisis de los acontecimientos políticos y económicos que caracterizaron la historia de la isla principalmente en los últimos tres siglos, permitió entender la creencia como una forma precisa de contestación hacia los cambios traumáticos impuestos por la política reformista de los Saboya, dirigida a la abolición de los usos comunitarios de amplias porciones de tierra. La nueva clase social de propietarios que surgió de la aplicación de las nuevas leyes acumuló posesiones practicando abusos que provocaron una desaprobación generalizada, con rebeliones e insurrecciones. Asimismo, relacionando la condena del propietario explotador con ciertas formas de regulación social características de las zonas más centrales de la isla, logré entender de manera más compleja el principio de causa y efecto que rige la estructura conceptual, en que la condena encuentra su coherencia y racionalidad específica. Comparando la creencia en la bilocación del rico terrateniente con otras creencias en que el tema de la salida del alma es central logré destacar sus peculiaridades, y la forma como se constituye en un vehículo de significados cuya complejidad indica en los portadores de estas creencias, un alto nivel de conciencia de si mismo y de sus derechos, garante de una dignidad que sigue siendo percibida como inviolable.

Streszczenie:

La diya es una composición preislámica adoptada por el Corán. Se aplica en caso de homicidio involuntario y eventualmente voluntario, y actúa como mecanismo que anula la posibilidad de venganza. En la diya, como en otras expresiones de composición, 1) la reconciliación entre las partes es tan importante como la compensación material a la parte ofendida, 2) el montante de la compensación depende de qué persona se ha ofendido, 3) todo individuo pertenece a un grupo, y si es un hombre considerado responsable, esto es, capaz de trabajar, queda obligado a participar en una eventual recaudación de diya. La diya está presente en la Mauritania contemporánea tanto en la justicia oficial como en el derecho consuetudinario. Mauritania es uno de los Estados islámicos cuyos aparatos penal y privado contractual se han consolidado y, paralelamente, se ha mantenido y legitimado el derecho vindicatorio. En el país en el que se contextualiza esta tesis la justicia oficial reconoce la privada, hasta el punto que las dos están imbricadas. En la resolución jurídica de homicidios involuntarios por la vía consuetudinaria el grupo al que se adscribe el individuo toma mucha importancia. Entre los bīḍān ese grupo es la qabīla, la tribu. Hoy en Mauritania la práctica totalidad de expresiones de diya se reduce a la resolución jurídica de accidentes de circulación. En el panorama circulatorio presentado, el de Nouakchott, la capital mauritana, abundan las conductas que transgreden el código de circulación y tienen lugar colisiones, algunas de las cuales comportan daños humanos. En tal caso, y puesto que dichos homicidios son considerados involuntarios, la diya entra en juego. En la tesis describo el itinerario jurídico convencional que sigue a un accidente con muertos en el que las partes son bīḍān, es decir, arabófonas. Dicho recorrido da fe de la imbricación de la vía consuetudinaria y la oficial. Tras el accidente, el culpable es detenido. Posteriormente suele ser puesto en libertad bajo la responsabilidad de un miembro de su tribu. Una vez materializada la composición, esto es, presentado y aceptado el perdón de la parte culpable a la parte ofendida y entregado el dinero pactado, un notario debe dejar constancia de la ejecución del pacto para extinguir el recurso a la justicia oficial. Actualmente en Mauritania si las partes pactan entre ellas, pues, el itinerario empieza y termina en el ámbito oficial. Hay casos en los que la parte ofendida no acepta la entrega del dinero, si bien expone esta decisión tras haber recibido a una representación de la tribu del culpable y haber aceptado sus excusas. En estas ocasiones los derechohabientes entienden que no ha lugar lucrarse gracias a la muerte de su pariente, puesto que esta es involuntaria, ha ocurrido por deseo divino. Los justiciables en Mauritania pueden recurrir a la justicia o ficial o bien optar por la consuetudinaria. El grado de desconfianza hacia la primera es elevado. A ello se suma la preferencia por obrar discretamente, el hecho que a los informantes bīḍān prefieren conocer en cada momento qué ocurrirá en lugar de restar a expensas de un juez, y la ausencia de la demanda del perdón de la parte culpable a la ofendida en la vía oficial.
Diya is a pre-islamic composition adopted by the Quran. It is applied in case of involuntary manslaughter and eventually in case of intentional homicide. Diya acts as a mechanism that eliminates the possibility of revenge. Mauritania is one of the Islamic states whose criminal and contractual private devices have been consolidated and, in parallel, has maintained and legitimized vindictive law. In the country in which this thesis is contextualized official justice recognizes private justice, to the point that the two are intertwined. Diya is present in contemporary Mauritania in both formal justice and customary law. Nowadays in Mauritania almost all expressions of diya are reduced to the legal settlement of traffic accidents. In my/this thesis I describe the conventional legal route that follows an accident with physical injuries in which the parties are Arabs. This itinerary attests how the customary and the official path are strongly interwoven. After the accident, the culprit/offender is arrested. He is usually released shortly afterwards under the responsibility of a member of his tribe. Once the composition has been materialized, that is, it has been presented, the injured party has accepted the forgiveness of the guilty party, and the money has been delivered, a notary must record the implementation of the agreement to cancel the use of official justice. Currently in Mauritania if the parties reach an agreement, then, the itinerary starts and ends at the official level. Litigants in Mauritania may resort to the official justice system or opt for the customary - interwoven with the official-. The degree of mistrust toward the first is high. We should also point out a preference for conducting the affair with discretion, the fact that Arabic informants prefer to know at all times what will happen rather than subtract at the expense of a judge, and the lack of demand for forgiveness of the guilty party in the offended official channels.

This qualitative research of the life stories of ten spiritual healers is focused on the threads of their journeys that led them to this unusual line of work, and their descriptions of their inner experiences while they do their work. Spiritual healers use some form of prayer, a communication with the world of spirit, as a significant part of their healing practices. Their stories reveal their controversial beliefs in invisible dimensions and how and why they believe they interact within these dimensions to experience their own mental, emotional, and spiritual healing, and offer this to others. A recurrent theme throughout participants’ lives is their ability to find positive meaning and personal growth through unusual adversity. They all have a strong sense of calling, of life purpose, that drew them to this work in divergent and fascinating ways, many having this awareness even as young children, with self-actualization as an expected purpose and outcome in life.

The topic of this dissertation is the relationship between social stratification and inequality in electoral participation in European countries, examined from a life course perspective. This participatory inequality across social strata is considered as particularly worrisome by social scientists, due to a potential vicious circle arising between socio-economic and political inequalities. The goal of this dissertation is to contribute to the exploration of said vicious circle, focusing on theoretical perspectives originating in sociology, at the intersection of social stratification and life course research: unemployment scarring, precarious work, relative cohort size, and age-class intersections. Broadly, I posit how the impact of individual social stratification on turnout is moderated by contextual-level dynamics, such as the unemployment rate, the size of the birth cohort, and the ideological convergence in the party system. I test the hypotheses by fitting logistic and multilevel regressions to data from the European Social Survey, combined with data from the EUROSTAT, Fraser Institute’s World Project, and the International Database of the US Census for Chapters 1-3. In Chapter 4, I integrate data from British Social Attitudes, the British Election Study, and the Manifesto Research on Political Participation in the case study of Great Britain. The key findings are the following: unemployment scarring decreases electoral participation by 10%, but its impact is amplified (up to 17%) by lower contextual unemployment, and nullified by higher levels of the latter. Precarious work decreases probability of voting in 21 European countries, on top of traditional predictors such as social class and education. In contrast with the Easterlin Hypothesis, larger Relative Cohort Size increases electoral participation, especially in upper social strata. Ideological convergence in Great Britain depresses the turnout of the working class and the self-employed, and this is driven mainly by younger cohorts within those classes. In sum, integrating the social stratification and life course approaches sheds new light on how inequality in electoral participation is jointly affected by individual and contextual characteristics. In future work, this joint approach may orient research on additional socio-political outcomes, towards a broader research programme on the Political Sociology of Inequalities.

Precarious work decreases probability of voting in 21 European countries, on top of traditional predictors such as social class and education. In contrast with the Easterlin Hypothesis, larger Relative Cohort Size increases electoral participation, especially in upper social strata. Ideological convergence in Great Britain depresses the turnout of the working class and the self-employed, and this is driven mainly by younger cohorts within those classes. In sum, integrating the social stratification and life course approaches sheds new light on how inequality in electoral participation is jointly affected by individual and contextual characteristics. In future work, this joint approach may orient research on additional socio-political outcomes, towards a broader research programme on the Political Sociology of Inequalities.

In health care, decision makers are faced with increasing innovation and demand for services accompanied by escalating costs. As a result, governments and institutions have sought to promote health care value (i.e. better outcomes per moneys spent). A summary measure of health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) to help decide how to allocate available resources is thus highly desirable. In no other area of public policy has a measure similar to the widely-used quality-adjusted life-year (QALY) been developed. The QALY is therefore unique in both its ambitions and in the political, philosophical and measurement challenges it faces. This thesis set out to examine health state valuation using the time-trade off (TTO), a tool used to measure HRQoL, in the context of a behavioural economic framework. Observed violations of procedural and descriptive invariance, cornerstones of decision theory (on which the TTO is based), have been witnessed in health state valuation and elsewhere. Behavioural economics offers a framework by which such inconsistencies can potentially be better understood. Although behavioural economics has gained traction in other areas of decision research, its application to health state valuation has been limited. Drawing on the decision-making literature and health-specific considerations, the empirical studies in this thesis: provide insight into why previous studies of the TTO have yielded inconsistent findings, showcase violations of internal consistency due to behavioural economic phenomena, and identify issues relevant to the choice of TTO ‘version’ (i.e. how values should be elicited). Implications of the research in terms of stated preference methods and their role in policy are discussed. A strict focus on the TTO was intended, as it is the tool most widely implemented in health state preference elicitation, both in research contexts and clinical studies that seek to demonstrate cost-effectiveness. However, importantly, the empirical findings and discussion in this thesis are relevant not only to researchers of health state valuation but to policy makers in health and other areas of social policy which seek input for their decisions through stated preference exercises.

An important aspect of sustainable development is the social impacts from the consumption of goods and services. A recently developed method for social life cycle assessment (S-LCA) assesses the potential positive and negative social impacts along a product’s life cycle, while avoiding shifting negative impacts from one part of the supply chain to another. This thesis evaluated the applicability of S-LCA in three case studies, as well as a way of introducing an ethical perspective on the distribution of social impacts among stakeholders. The case study of laptop computers identified workers and the local community as the stakeholders at greatest risk of negative social impacts, with China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Thailand and Brazil being most prone to these impacts. A case study of vehicle fuels identified some fossil and some renewable fuels with high or very high risks of negative impacts, suggesting a need for strict procurement requirements on social performance for all types of vehicle fuels. A study of e-waste recycling in Pakistan revealed negative social impacts on workers and the community, while decreasing poverty by providing employment. By performing a social hotspot assessment using S-LCA methodology, much can be learned about the potential social impacts associated with a product’s life cycle, and potentially important aspects that would otherwise have been neglected can be identified. Some methodological issues of S-LCA requiring further attention are: Indicator relevance. Impact pathways between indicators and performance assessment on social issues must be examined and improved. Aggregation and weighting of impacts and indicators. With major uncertainties still present, results must be transparent, but also aggregated for the purposes of interpretation and communication. Assessment of the use phase. To be more complete, S-LCA methodology needs to be complemented with an assessment of the use phase. Introduction of context. Identifying the context of relevant stakeholders in different parts of the life cycle would allow identification of the greatest leverage in improvement of social conditions.
En viktig del av hållbar utveckling är att hantera social påverkan från konsumtionen av varor och tjänster. Social livscykelanalys (S - LCA) är en metod som syftar till att bedöma positiv och negativ social påverkan av produkter under hela deras livscykel och samtidigt undvika att bara flytta negativ påverkan från en del av livscykeln till en annan. Denna avhandling utvärderar S - LCA i tre fallstudier, samt undersöker hur fördelningen av den sociala påverkan på olika intressentgrupper kan bedömas ur ett etiskt perspektiv. I en fallstudie som utfördes på en laptop identifierades arbetstagare och lokalsamhället som de intressenter, som löper störst risk för negativ social påverkan. Länder som Kina, Ryssland, Saudiarabien, Thailand och Brasilien var de som var mest kopplade till denna påverkan. En fallstudie kring fordonsbränslen visade att av de bränslen som bedömts uppvisade både en del fossila och en del förnybara bränslen höga eller mycket höga risker för negativ social påverkan, vilket tyder på att strikta upphandlingskrav gällande social prestanda behövs för alla typer av drivmedel. En studie av återvinning av elektroniskt avfall i Pakistan uppvisade påtaglig negativ social påverkan på arbetstagarna och lokalsamhället, samtidigt som återvinningen gav sysselsättning som minskar fattigdomen. Genom att använda S-LCA vid bedömningen av en produkt finns det mycket att lära om potentiell social påverkan från produktens livscykel. Viktiga aspekter, som annars riskerar att missas, kan nu identifieras med S-LCA. Metoden är dock inte färdigutvecklad, och metodfrågor som behöver ytterligare uppmärksamhet är: Relevanta indikatorer. Kopplingen mellan indikatorerna och den påverkan man försöker mäta måste undersökas närmare och förbättras. Sätt att aggregera och väga ihop påverkan. Med tanke på de osäkerheter som ännu så länge finns kring metoden måste resultaten hållas transparenta, samtidigt som sammanfattande resultat behövs för tolkning och kommunikation. Påverkan i användningsfasen. För att bli mer komplett, måste metoden kompletteras med en bedömning av social påverkan i användningsfasen. Sätta resultaten i sitt sammanhang. Utgångsläget för dem, som berörs av en produkts sociala påverkan avgör vilken hävstångseffekt en förbättring av de sociala förhållandena kan ha, och kan därmed påverka vilka åtgärder som bör prioriteras.

Streszczenie:

Introduction: There has been a growing interest around the use of the Internet, and more recently the role of social media use, within all aspects of day-to-day living. Previous research has found contrasting relationship s between social media use and meaningful social connectivity. Some suggesting Facebook can provide a 'social compensation'; offering an opportunity of developing positive social relationships and self-exploration (Indian & Grieves, 2014; Selfout et al., 2009; Ellison, Steinfield & Lampe, 2008). Other research argued that those who most benefitted from social media already have good social links, thus a 'rich get richer' effect (Kraut et al., 2002). Aim: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between social anxiety symptoms, passive and active Facebook use and online and offline relationships (bridging and bonding) to life satisfaction. Method: A total of 124 completed online questionnaires were collected. The participants completed five quantitative measures. The link to the study was posted on related Facebook pages and online social anxiety forums. Results: The results demonstrated a positive correlation between social anxiety and passive and active Facebook use, but only a significant negative correlation between active Facebook use and life satisfaction. There was also a negative correlation between social anxiety and life satisfaction. A mediation analysis suggested that social anxiety acted as a significant mediating variable between active Facebook use and life satisfaction. Furthermore, a hierarchical regression suggested that it was, when controlling for social anxiety, face-to-face bonding relationship that was the most significant predictor variable for life satisfaction. Clinical implications: The study does not argue a causal relationship between Facebook use, social anxiety, relationship types and a negative impact on life satisfaction. However it does highlighted interesting significant correlation between Facebook use, social anxiety and life satisfaction. This would suggest that within clinical practice an individual’s digital life should be thought about, alongside the more traditional ideas of social networks. Furthermore, the clinical focus of developing of an individual’s face-to-face relationships remains an important factor associated with life satisfaction.

This thesis examines longitudinally how young offenders cope with prison life, in particular the relationship between early coping styles and later levels of psychological health' and homesickness. The research was conducted in two parts. The first was a preliminary study to modify a homesickness questionnaire (Archer et al, 1998) for use within a prison population. The modified questionnaire (HQ-P) demonstrated good reliability. The second part consisted of the longitudinal study. This comprised three phases where individuals were assessed within two weeks of arriving into the prison system (phase one, N = 261), six weeks later (phase two, N = 133) and four to six months after phase one (phase three, N = 55). At each phase, individuals were asked to complete a coping styles questionnaire, psychological health and homesickness measures. A small number of the sample at phase one also took part in a semi-structured interview. This was to explore qualitatively their methods of coping, management of relationships and levels of support experienced within the first two weeks of arrival into the prison system. The results demonstrated that the use of emotional and avoidance coping within two weeks of arrival into prison was related to better levels of psychological health and lower levels of homesickness some six weeks and four to six months later. Individuals also demonstrated preferences for particular coping strategies that remained consistent across each phase. There are many implications of these findings. The first of these is the demonstration that levels of homesickness remain consistently high as time continues in prison. The study also reflects the importance of not labelling coping strategies as universally effective or ineffective, and allowing a more realistic exploration of their significance as a result. The effective early use of avoidance and emotional coping upon later levels of psychological health and homesickness would contrast against coping theory, that has previously regarded emotional and avoidance coping as hindering effective management of the stressor (Zeinder and Endler, 1996 and Menaghan, 1982). ___________________ 'Psychological health refers to symptoms expressed in the Middlesex Hospital Questionnaire (Crown and Crisp, 1966). These include depression, free-floating anxiety, obsessional and hysteric symptoms, also somatic symptoms which has a physical base. When discussing the findings throughout this thesis, references to psychological health are a combination of the above symptoms.

Spirituality has been recognized as a positive factor in the lives of older adults, especially as it influences their emotional, mental, and physical well-being. This convenience sample study included 17 older adults residing at a faith based continuing care retirement community in Florida. The sample was represented by Caucasian older adults with an average age of 84 years, highly educated, majority Protestant and mostly female. Spiritual life reviews were conducted using spiritual life maps (Hodge, 2005) and semi-structured interview questions. Erikson's epigenetic stage of ego-integrity was used along with Butler's life review process and Tornstam's gerotranscendence as a conceptual framework for understanding late life development and spirituality in older adults. This mostly qualitative study used a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to analyze the responses to the open-ended interview questions about spirituality across the life-time. Ego-integrity was measured at the beginning and end of the spiritual life review study.

Paired t-tests found that participation in the spiritual life review did not influence the ego integrity scores of participants. Specifically, there were no statistically significant difference between the pre ego integrity score (M=82.94, SD= 8.235) and the post ego integrity score (M=84.47, SD= 7.551); t (16) = -.769 p= .453. However, in comparison, the qualitative analysis revealed that the spiritual life review does influence ego-integrity in some participants. Additionally, the spiritual life review confirms gerotranscendence and contributes to information about spiritual development in the lives of older adults. The conclusion offers a discussion about the study's limitations, strengths, implications for future research, and suggestions for clinical practice.

Social support has been identified as an important mediator aiding adaptation during major life transitions such as matriculation in college. In the present study two models were proposed to predict social network development from measures of previous social support and individual characteristics collected prior to students' matriculation. It was hypothesized that initiation skills and previous social relationship patterns would predict the quantitative development of the students' new social support networks while negative affectivity and social relationship patterns would predict satisfaction with the forming network.The models were tested using path analysis techniques. Model I was supported. Initiation skills and relationship patterns both had significant direct effects on network size; while initiation skills also had a meaningful indirect effect on size through its effects on relationship patterns. Model II was not supported by the data. Network satisfaction was not meaningfully influenced by negative affect but was affected by initiation skills and by social relationship patterns. Changes in the characteristics of the network over time were also observed and considered. The results clarify the process through which new social networks develop and have implications for college-based intervention programs.

Many people are exposed to trauma and subsequently experience mental health distress, though not all seek help for it. This study aimed to explore the relationship between attitudes towards seeking help and level of impairment in work/school, family, and social domains among individuals seeking treatment for traumatic exposure. This study also analyzed the relationship between attitudes to seeking help through various referral sources and demographic characteristics, including gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, and level of education. The analysis revealed no significant relationship between level of impairment and attitudes to seeking help, yet significant differences were found when comparing attitudes towards help seeking among level of education and sexual orientation. Implications of the demographic characteristics of the help seeking population and lack of significance in the relationship between help seeking attitudes and level of impairment are discussed.

Pełny tekst źródła

Streszczenie:

This thesis is a systematic examination from a historical point of view of the rich diversity of forms and images of the lion motif in Chinese space and social life. Drawing on textual, linguistic and archaeological sources, it addresses the fundamental problem inherent in the study of the lion motif in China, that is, why a foreign import was adopted, transformed and assimilated into an existing culture and how it was then widely rendered in various forms and images as though it had been an indigenous image all along. The examination begins with a search for the origins, names for and appearance of the real lion in China and a comparison of this with the images, roles and powers of the ideological lion in the Chinese mind. It proceeds through an investigation into the liking of the ruling class for lions as tomb guardian beasts in their search for a better afterlife. The thesis then focuses on the adoption of the lion motif by ordinary people as a means of approaching the divine and gaining recognition, in the process of which the image of a ferocious beast was gradually transformed into that of a rotund pet. The pet-like ??look?? of the lion came to be associated with various vernacular cultures of Southern China and assumed a unique style during Ming (1368??1644), when the form and image of the animal became a living concept with little emphasis on its physical appearance. In other words, what perpetuated the significant role of the lion in Chinese space and social life was its conceptual image, not its physical shape. Two case studies, one based in Kinmen and the other in Sydney, further demonstrate that the physical appearance of the lion motif has little effect on the power and mechanism of the mighty animal in the Chinese mind. What matters most, when placing the lion motif in front of an entry way, is the reiteration or reenactment of the conceptual image of the lion through symbols, rituals and ??traditional?? beliefs by which this particular animal motif has become an enduring legacy of Chinese communities around the world. The thesis, then, summarises the changes in the lion motif and its transformation from a physical object to a living concept free from image and form constraints as a gradual process of Chinese perception that integrated the real animal with the imagined animal, strange and unfamiliar phenomena, and the dominant and popular cultures. The context of this integration may have been significantly influenced by the bureaucratic metaphor of the ruling class. The lasting meaning and significance of the lion motif, however, is due to the vision and determination of ordinary people, who are as much prone to seeking a comfortable space and the promise of a better life as have been their rulers.

Streszczenie:

This thesis explores the relationship between social networks and economic life in rural Zambia. The motivation for the study lies in the crucial role played by social context and social networks in exchange behaviour in rural sub-Saharan Africa, and inherent difficulties in formalising market transactions in this context within a standard neoclassical economics framework. The study examines the role of social networks in rural production systems, focusing on crop market participation. It is based on analysis of findings from social network research conducted by the author in three predominantly Bemba villages in Northern Province, Zambia. Data collected using quantitative and qualitative methods are used to map social networks of individuals and households. Variables are constructed capturing network characteristics, and incorporated into transactions cost models of ommercialisation. The overarching question is: do social networks play a role in determining farming success in settings with little variability between households on assets and endowments – land, labour, inputs – and where markets are incomplete or missing? Do social networks mediate market and resource access, helping to explain socio-economic differences between households? The research finds rural life is characterised by diverse networks with multiple, overlapping functions. Much economic exchange takes place on reciprocal or kinship bases, rooted in social norms and reflecting community structures. How social networks are measured matters. Different network attributes are important for different people, and relationships between networks and outcomes depend on the measure used. Controlling for endogeneity, estimation results suggest larger networks have a negative effect on crop incomes whereas having a greater proportion of kin in the network has a positive effect, implying that in this context strong ties are key. Qualitative research suggests the nature of people's networks and their positions within them play an important role in the command over labour: “the famous always get their work done".

Streszczenie:

This study uses the professional trajectory of the Harvard-trained physical chemist and physiologist Lawrence Joseph Henderson to show how the nascent and highly mobile interconnections between biomedicine and social theory began to crystallize around the concept of the social system in the middle decades of the twentieth century. The social system became a powerful and persuasive way of relating vastly different concepts and their consequences, e.g., the laboratory and social life. By focusing on L.J. Henderson and the social system, this study brings the history of biomedicine into dialogue with the history of the social sciences in a new and interesting way by offering an alternative (pre-cybernetics) genealogy of systems theory. This dissertation is an examination of Henderson's cross-disciplinary application of the concept of the social system in three domains: the social sciences, medicine, and industry. Henderson is a historically interesting case because he allows us a unique point of view--the ability to see border crossings between the social sciences and the life sciences in more than one domain. I argue that the transformation of social theory in inter-war America should be understood as part of a broader set of mid-twentieth century developments in the life sciences in general, and human physiology in particular.

Drawing on John Dewey's philosophy, I argue first that our distinctive human existence depends most fundamentally on practices of communication. I then argue that creative artistic work plays a crucial and inescapable role in shaping and enabling communication. The focus of my dissertation is then on showing the unique and distinctive role that art plays in facilitating the emergence of democratic culture, specifically. To make this argument I draw on Hegel's analysis of two particular artistic media: architecture and painting. I argue first that architecture, though it can serve many different functions, is most essentially the articulation of a shared sense of human dwelling. I then argue that painting, on the contrary, has as its distinctive artistic function the articulation of the distinctive experience of individuality. Turning again to Dewey, I then argue that democratic culture depends essentially on both this communal and this individualistic sense of our existence and, consequently, that in fundamental ways the historical development of the arts of architecture and painting have made possible the emergence of a democratic culture. I conclude, finally, that it is also definitive of the very meaning of democracy that it itself promote the proliferation of transformative practices of creative communication, and hence that, just as it depends inherently on a history of artistic practice, democracy must equally commit itself to the development of new forms of artistic expression.

The main objective is to perform a life cycle assessment (LCA) on a hot milk high-speed centrifugal separator (HMRPX 918-HGV-74C, product number 881275 01 01. The purpose of a life cycle assessment (LCA) is to provide a picture of a product’s total environmental impact during its lifecycle. The study is carried out according to ISO 14 040, i.e. all methods, data and assumptions are accounted for in order to make an external review possible. An LCA could provide the basis for an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD). The LCA clearly shows that the main environmental impact of the separator is caused by CIP and electricity used during operation. The major part of the impact from the CIP chemicals is due to the energy needed for their manufacture. Fossil fuels account for most of the impact for both operation and manufacture of chemicals. Therefore customers should be encouraged to use environmentally friendly electricity and chemicals, such as renewable energy sources and sodium hydroxide made with membrane technology. It is also important to use as little as possible of cleaning agents and make sure that waste is treated properly.

This research set reflections about the Gaucho Traditionalist Movement and analyses the selected imagery repertoire on the composition of the institutionalized Gaucha clothing. Clothing became the main element of the set of references selected by the movement from 1947, from it people embrace the constituted identity, create personas and declare themselves as Gauchos. Due to the intense use of historical references on the movement practices, the imaginary is reinforced and results in the connection of the present with the past, creating meanings, evoking it as the different and emphasizing "me" and "the other". Therefore, the aim of this research was to verify the textual and imagery sources used in the book "Indumentária Gaucha" of the writer Antonio Augusto Fagundes, identifying and analyzing the historical references and the fashion aspects that rebound on the composition proposed by the author, and approved by the Gaucho Traditionalist Movement from the second half of the twentieth century

O vestuário constituiu-se como elemento central do conjunto de referências selecionadas pelo movimento a partir de 1947, a partir dele as pessoas se apropriam da identidade constituída, criam personas e se afirmam como gaúcho. Em razão da intensa utilização de referências históricas nas práticas do movimento, o imaginário se fortalece e resulta na conexão do presente com o passado, criando sentidos, evocando-o como o diferente e evidenciando o “eu” e o outro”. Desse modo, a pesquisa tem como objetivo verificar as fontes textuais e imagéticas utilizadas na obra Indumentária Gaúcha de Antonio Augusto Fagundes, identificando e analisando as referências históricas e aspectos da moda que reverberam na composição proposta pelo autor e aprovada pelo Movimento Tradicionalista Gaúcho a partir da segunda metade do século XX

Streszczenie:

Although the importance of studying central constructs across different levels of experience has long been recognized, most research on psychological need satisfaction has focused on general need satisfaction or need satisfaction in specific, isolated domains or situations. The present thesis aims to address this problem by investigating the role of psychological need satisfaction in multiple domains simultaneously for motivational and well-being outcomes at different levels of generality, as well the interplay among domains. The first article examines the associations between psychological need satisfaction, autonomous motivation, and subjective well-being simultaneously across multiple domains. Results show that need satisfaction is strongly related to both autonomous motivation and well-being in multiple domains, and that motivation acts as a partial mediator of the path between need satisfaction and well-being. The second article investigates how domain need satisfaction influences the adoption of self-concordant goals, laying the foundation for successful goal pursuit. Both these articles use an idiographic approach to look at the differences and similarities between the many important life domains in which individuals are involved, and consider the within-person variability between domains. The third article directly looks at the effects of experiencing such variability on school and overall adjustment. Overall, the three articles reveal new information about the variability and relative role of psychological needs in important life domains obscured by the previous focus on global need satisfaction. These findings highlight the importance of examining psychological need satisfaction in multiple life domains.
Bien que l'importance d'examiner des concepts centraux dans différents niveaux d'expérience soit reconnue depuis longtemps, la plupart des études sur la satisfaction des besoins psychologiques mettent l'accent sur la satisfaction des besoins en général ou dans des domaines ou des situations isolés. Le but de la présente thèse était de remédier ce problème en examinant le rôle de la satisfaction des besoins dans plusieurs domaines simultanément ainsi que l'interaction entre les domaines sur la motivation et le bien-être à plusieurs niveaux de généralité. Le premier article examine les liens entre la satisfaction des besoins psychologiques, la motivation autonome et le bien-être subjectif simultanément dans de multiples domaines. Les résultats démontrent que la satisfaction des besoins est liée à la fois à la motivation autonome et au bien-être dans plusieurs domaines, et que la motivation agit comme un médiateur partiel de la voie entre la satisfaction des besoins et le bien-être. Le deuxième article examine la façon dont la satisfaction des besoins dans les domaines influence l'adoption de buts autonomes, établissant un fondement pour l'accomplissement des buts. Ces deux articles utilisent une approche idiographique pour examiner les différences et les similitudes entre les nombreux domaines importants et considèrent la variabilité intra-personnelle entre domaines. Le troisième article examine les effets de cette variabilité sur l'expérience scolaire et l'ajustement global. Ensemble, les trois articles révèlent de nouvelles informations sur le rôle des besoins psychologiques, soulignant l'importance d'examiner la satisfaction des besoins dans de multiples domaines.
