Il presente elaborato consiste nella proposta di sottotitolaggio di quattro scene selezionate dal film Sin Nombre. La struttura di questo scritto comprendere un’iniziale contestualizzazione del prodotto di partenza e del contesto sociale in cui si svolge, ossia il centro America caratterizzato da povertà, migrazioni verso gli Stati Uniti e organizzazioni mafiose come la Mara Salvatrucha. L’elaborato prosegue con un’analisi del linguaggio utilizzato focalizzata prevalentemente sul gergo specifico usato dall’associazione criminale in questione. Successivamente, viene presentata una breve panoramica sulle tecniche di sottotitolaggio impiegate. Infine, l’ultimo capitolo si concentra sulle scelte traduttive relative alle scene selezionate, motivandole ed evidenziandone problemi riscontrati e tecniche utilizzate. Il presente elaborato illustra il lavoro di sottotitolaggio di un film fortemente caratterizzato dal contesto socioculturale centroamericano con lo scopo di rendere fruibile il prodotto ad un pubblico italiano senza però perderne l’autenticità.

Cary, Karri Lee. "Willow resilience on Yellowstone's Northern Elk Winter Range a function of environmental gradients /." Thesis, Montana State University, 2005. http://etd.lib.montana.edu/etd/2005/cary/CaryK0505.pdf.
Анотація:
Willow, a deciduous, woody shrub, is a characteristic and often dominant riparian species (Amlin and Rood 2002) that has been unable to successfully regenerate throughout much of its western range, and Yellowstone National Park (YNP) is no exception (Singer et al. 1994, NRC 2002a). The primary objective of this study was to understand growth and maintenance of established willow stands as a community and as individual species following winter browse. These were based on the premises that (1) different levels of herbivory produce varying levels of compensatory growth (Brookshire et al. 2002), (2) different channel types provide diverse hydrologic conditions for vegetation establishment and maintenance (Patten 1998, Castelli et al. 2000), (3) riparian biodiversity is a function of fluvial dynamics and is increased by the degree of hydrologic connectivity of the system (Amoros and Bornette 2002), and (4) the possibility of willow species being either generalist (showing water source shifts) or specialist (availability doesn't influence water source) (Dawson and Ehleringer 1991, Busch et al. 1992, Schwinning and Ehleringer 2001). Site selection and design, and sampling scheme were designed to evaluate biophysical gradients both within and between sites over time. Gradients of biophysical parameters were quantified throughout the growing season. Regressions were used to identify relationships among physical and biological parameters or characteristics. Vegetative communities were compared using Sorenson's similarity index. Ecosystem functions that influence willow presence on the Northern Range include establishment, browse pressure, and maintenance and resilience or their ability to recover. Establishment of willow was a result of availability of their preferred water source while winter decline was a function of location and herbivore preferential selection. Maintenance and resilience were dominated by soil water use in the early season and groundwater use later in the season but with distinct variations between hydrologic systems. Nutrient availability and hyporheic connectivity, essential to dispersing those nutrients among the plant communities, also may influence growth and resilience of willow plants. However, excess or even "acceptable" levels of only one of the physical factors was not enough alone to control dominant plant growth and response to herbivory.

Fenwick, Julie M. "The novels of Joyce Cary: Romantic illusion and existential "pathology"." Thesis, University of Ottawa (Canada), 1990. http://hdl.handle.net/10393/5740.
Анотація:
Joyce Cary's earliest novels address a whole range of "inadequate" ideas which he depicts as derived from romanticism and as fundamentally related to one another. These include the secularisation of divine providence as Hegelian dialectic, as a deterministic unconscious, and as the "life force." Furthermore, he depicts the romantic Utopianism of philosophers such as Rousseau as rooted in the same error as Social Darwinism. The ground of Cary's rejection of these notions is his belief that they all limit the freedom and responsibility of the individual. Having examined Cary's wholesale rejection of these ideas, this thesis discusses his novelistic dramatisations of specific notions adapted from the works of Carlyle, Wordsworth, and Kierkegaard. Cary is indebted to Carlyle for a notion of history as a cycle of decay and subsequent new creation of public institutions and symbols which embody cultural traditions. But history also exhibits a linear development, fueled by the desire of all people for greater "richness" of experience. Carlyle suggests that an important role in this development is reserved for exceptional individuals who are providentially selected "heroes" and who have a right to command absolute obedience in the realisation of their creative visions. In contrast, although Cary depicts "Promethean" iconoclasts as the inspirers of historical development, he suggests that the cooperation of other free individuals is necessary to bring their imaginative visions to actualisation. Cary's notion of the manner in which such a responsible and self-fulfilled individual develops is very similar to that of Wordsworth, with one important exception. Whereas Wordsworth attributes primacy to the relationship of the developing self to nature, Cary depicts the relationship with other people as paramount. Nonetheless, Cary's infants and children strongly resemble Wordsworth's in that they pass from a state in which they fail to differentiate between their own existence and that of the world, to a state in which they regard all of the world as animate but as separate from themselves. Furthermore, Cary's notion of memory is strikingly similar to Wordsworth's. Cary depicts the acquisition of a moral sense as an important facet of personal maturation. The mature person transcends the self to engage in compassionate relationships with other people, while respecting their separateness. Furthermore, the ability to transcend the self is fundamental to the exercise of creativity. It is involved both in the intuition which inspires artistic creation and in the engagement with material reality that is necessary to "translate" such intuition into a concrete symbol. In his final novels, Cary depicts the dire consequences of failures of self-transcendence. Many of Cary's characters who subscribe to such "inadequate" notions exemplify the existentially "pathological" states described by Tillich, Buber, and Marcel. Cary's examination and critique of specific romantic texts leads him to adopt a position that can be identified as "existentialist." His ideas diverge at revealing points from those of Sartre, and display a remarkable affinity with those of Nikolai Berdyaev. In the light of these divergences and affinities, the position exemplified by Cary's novels can be located within the heterogeneous existentialist movement. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

Анотація:
Cary-Cortona is a city that lies on the periphery of two realities; the reality of pragmatism and the reality of abstraction. It was conceived as a response to the pragmatic questions posed by an uncertain, yet impending future. It was nurtured by the correlation of vaguely related information until the facts and figures themselves became an abyss of abstraction. From the cavernous depths of information came a night of dreams when Cary-Cortona first emerged as walls and columns that began to form a city of arcades and courtyards. On that night the inhabitants walked the streets and alleys and the fragments of a dream became the very real elements of a living town. The subconscious residue of that dream flowed together as expressions of order, hierarchy, and form, drawn into existence through the media of models, drawings and sketches. Those formal expressions have taken on a reality of their own even when seen as abstractions through pragmatic eyes because they represent aspirations not yet realized. Cary-Cortona is very much alive in the realm of ideas, and as an idea it can emote a different series of images from each viewer who sees it. Just as there are limitless images of the future each tied to the individual, Cary-Cortona represents only one aspiration for a small corner of a vast future. In its present form Cary-Cortona is an adolescent in a purgatory between the two realities of abstraction and pragmatism, belonging to neither world completely, yet existing to be judged and scrutinized by both.Master of Architecture

Garber-Roberts, Scottie. "Deconstructing the "Woman of Sentiment": Parody as Agency in the Poetry of Phoebe Cary." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2020. https://dc.etsu.edu/etd/3766.
Анотація:
The work of nineteenth-century American poet Phoebe Cary presents a complex puzzle of exigence and purpose that combines social structure, political climate, and personal history. Known for her somber and spiritual sentimental poetry, Cary shocked readers and reviewers alike when she published her collection Poems and Parodies in 1854, which contained a series of scathing and hilarious parodies based on popular sentimental poetry. In my thesis, I work to untangle the various contextual elements surrounding Cary’s writing in order to gain a better understanding of the dual nature of the poet and her work. Through an examination of nineteenth-century American culture, sentimentalism, Cary’s career, and a close reading of selected parodies, I argue that by intentionally undermining patriarchal, sentimental conventions, Cary both reinstates agency and plurality to women through her female speakers and asserts her own agency as an autonomous artist.

Анотація:
This thesis focuses on mystical experience and the writings of Anna Trapnel and other women associated with the Fifth Monarchy movement, Sarah Wight, Mary Cary, and Elizabeth Avery. Female visionary experience is particularly associated with the High to Late Middle Ages, yet there is a recurrence of it in the mid-seventeenth century, exemplified by the Fifth Monarchy women. One of the aims of this thesis is to determine how far the mystical discourse of medieval writers such as Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, and St. Bridget, penetrates the writing of women associated with the Fifth Monarchists. To this end it participates in the critical debate surrounding the possibility of a tradition of female prophecy. A general residue of medieval mystical texts in England in the seventeenth century suggests cross-cultural influences, yet the recurrence of medieval aspects of mysticism in the writing of women visionaries has been seen as little more than coincidence. In order to develop the idea that there are more deliberate reasons for this recurrence, I will examine the ideological beliefs of the Fifth Monarchy movement, analysing in particular the ways in which these beliefs were expressed, as well as considering the impact of seventeenth-century editions of medieval mystical texts on the visionary writers of this movement. In pointing to a tradition of women's self-expression through mystical experience, this thesis also offers an analysis of Luce Irigaray's essay 'La Mysterique'. Emphasising the notion, that for women, the body is a signifier of mystical experience, Irigaray provides us with the means to gain a greater understanding of women's viSionary writing, while at the same time enabling us to gauge its significance in relation to the systems of social order prevalent during the period in which they wrote. The combination of historical and theoretical analysis is necessary for a full assessment of the implications of a consciousness of a feminised tradition of mysticism for the Fifth Monarchy movement as a whole, exemplified in the work of one of its leaders, John Rogers, but particularly its women members.

Com este intuito, observamos que o contexto das viagens incidiu decisivamente na forma como estes indivíduos, pertencentes à cultura anglo-saxã, apreciaram às alteridades humana e ambiental da Amazônia. Estes viajantes se inserem num grupo de indivíduos do Oitocentos, que se lançaram além-mar a fim de encontrar não apenas material promissor para suas pesquisas, mas também que viam estas viagens como uma oportunidade para fugir das ordenações da ascendente sociedade burguesa. Assim, se de um lado anunciaram uma natureza coletável e categorizável , por outro lado objetivaram apreciar a natureza em sua cadeia de relações. Nestes termos, podemos pensar a pulsão de viajar, para onde nenhum homem branco ousou chegar, como a expressão de um sentimento nostálgico de perda da natureza, de desencantamento com o meio ambiente de seus países, decorrente das transformações provocadas pelas revoluções industrial e tecnológica. Neste processo, a natureza deixou de ser interpretada simbolicamente, passando a ser revelada por um observador externo que pudesse examiná-la e dissecá-la. Enfim, foi por meio da viagem para um mundo que concebiam como o puderam refletir sobre suas próprias existências. Mais do que examinar a natureza e seus habitantes por meio dos olhos do império, estes viajantes enfatizaram o valor de se aprender com o Outro.

Анотація:
L'afrique est un objet inepuisable de fantasmes dans le roman et la nouvelle britanniques de l'entre-deux-guerres. En particulier dans le out of africa (1957) de blixen, elle represente la sterilite des efforts et de la quete insatisfaite. Pour le an outpost of progress (1984) de conrad, l'afriqueest fantome eu egard a l'ambiguite. D'apres le mister johnson (1985) de cary, elle est une sorciere pour l'acculturation de johnson. Dans le the flame trees of thika (1987) de huxley et dans le remote people (1986) de waugh, l7afrique est l'initiatrice du britannique. Or au moment meme ou l'europe vit des crises de valeurs a l'entre-deux-guerres, les britanniques revaient de batir une nouvelle frate rnite ailleurs. Mais ce que cette these veut demontrer, c'est que ce qui est reellement mis en jeu dans les representati ons de l'afrique et de l'africain, c'est tout le probleme de l'alterite, de l'etranger, de l'autre, ignore ou vecu comme l'ennemi. L'afrique change et l'europe aussi. La rencontre evolue et elle se transforme au fil de l'histoire. Devant un vide de l'afrique, les europeens se retrouvent devant leur propre vide existentiel. Alors ils s'interrogent et ils debouchent sur une interrogation profonde de l'identite culturelle de l'europeen. Mais dans ce questionnement, c'est l'afrique qui s'adresse a l'europe jusqu'a amener les personnages souvent au bord du desespoir ou du suicide comme chez conrad. Or, non seulement l'ecrivain britannique est maitre de fait dans la relation coloniale, mais il est aussi maitre de la narration et chef du recit en tant qu'ecrivain. D'ou une serie de manipulations interminables de l'africain, ou de l'europeen, pour recueillir ce que le pouvoir structurel refuse d'assembler. Aussi, les sont-elles vouees a l'echec en termes de relations humaines. Cette these qui s'appuie sur des outils d'analyses tels que anthropologie, histoire et des donnees de narratologie, aboutit a une problematique finale, a savoir quels ont ete, quels sont et quels pourraient etre les rapports entre colonisateur et colonise, britannique et africain, entre la grande bretagne et ses ex-colonies, entre l'europe et l'afriqueAfrica is an unfailing fantasy source int he british novel and short story between the wars. Especially in blixen's out of africa (1954), africa symbolizes the barren efforts and the unsatisfied quest. In an outpost of progress (1984) by conrad, it is a ghost. With cary's mister johnson (1985), africa is featured as a witch as regards johnson's cultural hybridity. In huxley's the flame trees of thika (1987) and waugh's remote people (1986), it is felt as an initiator by the briton, but as europe is experiencing crises of value between the wars, britons wanted to bind a new fraternity elsewhere, but we try to indicate that the representations given of africa and of africans put nothing at stake but the whole question of the alterity, of the alien, of the other, unknown or felt as the enemy. Africa is changing, so is europe. Their meeting moves around, and changes follow the treads of history, but facing a voi d in africa, europeans are confronted with their own existential vacuum, which entails an exploration of the self, and they happen to question european cultural identity. But finally in their query, it is africa that consults europe to the point of leading the characters very often into the fringes of desperation or even suicide, for instance by conrad. The british writer is not only an authority within the colonial network, but also he is the holder of the narration and the master of the relation of events. So he handles the african or the european in order to gather what structural power refuses to blend. The perceptions of the other are thus donned to fail in terms of human relations. Our thesis which bases itself on such fields as anthropology, history and facts of narratology ends at a final question to know what have been, what are and what could be the relationships between the colonizer and the colonized, british and african, between great britain and her ex-colonies, between europe and africa

Анотація:
In reading The story of Edgar Sawtelle, this essay applies posthuman studies with animal studies and disability studies to analyse how the communication between species occur and how boundaries are expanded. Non-verbal language is closely examined and argued to be just as viable as verbal language in the making of relationships and subjects in literature. By applying posthumanism, biological research and a non-anthropocentric way of thinking one can evolve from the notion that humans are the only subjects which matter, something that has been verified because non-human animals never have been given a voice or an acknowledgment of a language. What happens in a novel when the main protagonist is lacking the ability to speak verbally, when verbal language is what has constructed human exceptionalism over all the other species?Denna uppsats tillämpar posthumanistiska studier med djurstudier och funktionshinder-studier för att analysera hur kommunikationen mellan arter äger rum och expanderar gränser i David Wroblewskis roman The Story of Edgar Sawtelle. Icke-verbalt språk undersöks och argumenteras vara lika betydande som verbalt språk vid skapandet av relationer och subjekt i litteratur. Genom att applicera posthumanism, biologisk forskning och ett icke-antropocentriskt sätt att tänka kan man avveckla tanken om att människan är det enda subjekt som räknas, detta är något som enbart verifierats eftersom icke-mänskliga djur aldrig fått någon agens eller bekräftande att de har rätten till en röst. Vad händer i en roman när protagonisten saknar förmågan till verbalt språk, när det verbala språket är central som verkning i mänsklig exceptionalism?

I seguenti capitoli affrontano il processo di innovazione che sta vivendo l’industria automobilistica con l’avvento della connettività, sempre più diffusa all’interno dei veicoli, siano essi nuovi o usati.
Il tema della connettività è diventato una grande opportunità per molte aziende, sia per quelle già presenti nel mercato automotive sia per le start-up innovative nate per soddisfare questi bisogni.
La connettività nei veicoli apporta nuove possibilità per tutti gli attori presenti, dai produttori di veicoli alle concessionarie, dalle officine alle assicurazioni, dagli automobilisti ai gestori di flotte e infrastrutture.
Questo è un caso studio di un'azienda industriale italiana, TEXA S.p.A, che ha creduto nel business della connettività auto creando una soluzione ad hoc installabile in tutte le vetture che supportano lo standard OBD.
Lo scopo di questo studio è, oltre che a fornire una panoramica dei benefici che gli attori coinvolti possono trarre, di analizzare la strategia che TEXA ha implementato durante il processo di revisione del progetto di connettività in auto. Questo studio mira a generare utili strategie da poter applicare nella ridefinizione del modello di business adottato da un’azienda per commercializzare con successo un prodotto che differisce dall’attuale mix di prodotti, sia perché si rivolge a una clientela differente sia perché presenta delle caratteristiche tecniche non condivise da altri prodotti.

This dissertation aims to investigate how the Charlotte Brontë s literary project presents in the novel, Jane Eyre (1847), through female authorship, and, as its transposition into Cinema, the movie version by Cary Joji Fukunaga´s Jane Eyre (2011) occurs. The literary project of the author focuses on the issue of gender and its concern was to give voice to the women of her time. The director´s project for this movie comes from melodrama to the triumph of love search. The purpose of analysis is to understand how the interpretation of this source-novel occurs in the 21st century, with the aim of examining how this story is reread, seeking current interpretive understanding of the novel through the film. Thus, this study will demonstrate the importance of the periodization as proposed by Jameson (1992) for the reading of the novel and its transcreation, according to Campos (2004), considering the relationship between economic s, political, social and aesthetic characteristics of each period, as also teaches Candido (1967). The research was developed through the reading the novel, of the theoretical works about the author as well as the director and analysis of filmic narrative.
Esta dissertação tem por objetivo demonstrar como o projeto literário de Charlotte Brontë se apresenta no romance Jane Eyre (1847), por meio da autoria feminina, como ocorre sua transposição para o Cinema, na versão fílmica, de Cary Joji Fukunaga, Jane Eyre (2011). O projeto literário da autora concentra-se na questão de gênero e sua preocupação foi a de dar voz à mulher de seu tempo. O projeto do diretor para esse filme parte do melodrama para o triunfo da busca pelo amor. O intuito de análise é perceber como ocorre a interpretação desse romance-fonte no século XXI, com o objetivo de analisar como essa história é relida, buscando a compreensão interpretativa desse romance-fonte na atualidade pelo olhar fílmico. Neste âmbito, este estudo demonstrará a importância da periodização conforme proposto por Jameson (1992) para a leitura do romance e de sua transcriação, de acordo com Campos (2004), considerando as relações entre as características econômicas, políticas, sociais e estéticas de cada período, conforme também nos ensina Candido (1967). A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por meio da leitura do romance, de obras teóricas sobre a autora e o diretor e análise da narrativa cinematográfica.

End of life conversations are challenging in all health care settings, and health care providers’ (HCPs) fears about holding end of life conversations are a barrier to quality patient centred care. This study explored HCPs’ experiences using a conversation “companion card” to structure end of life discussions and sought to understand HCPs’ experiences with goals of care (GOC) conversations.
A theoretical perspective of relational ethics and a research methodology of Interpretive Description (ID) guided this research study. The methodology produced a qualitative description of experiences from a sample of HCPs.
Over a two month period, the researcher gathered data during four semi-structured focus groups with twenty one participants at one urban acute care setting in Western Canada. In addition to focus groups the researcher relied on other processes to enhance her reflexivity, including journaling and memos; all of which are essential to ID inquiry.
The findings of this study centre around four themes relating to participants’ experiences discussing GOC and the usefulness of the companion card in discussions. These themes are titled, the big struggle; responsibility; building relationships and the utility of the GOC companion card. Recommendations from this study addressed the need for research into the ethics of discussing GOC with patients and families with life limiting illnesses; organisational prioritisation ensuring therapeutic GOC discussions take place; incorporation of GOC discussions in educational programs across all health care sectors; and policy reform to ensure community care services can support ongoing GOC conversations.

Urbanization has been a growing trend in the past fifty years. Cities are now transforming into smart cities, spaces whose infrastructure comprises an embedded digital layer. Hardware collects real-time data in the urban environment and software elaborates it to improve all types of services, from traffic to waste management to well-being. One technology that is expected to use this digital layer to further change the urban environment is the autonomous car. The purpose of this dissertation is to explore what key design attributes future autonomous cars should possess if they have not only to co-exist with and be accepted by people in the landscape of tomorrow’s smart cities, but also what they should not possess in order not to cause any harm. In this sense, the dissertation recognizes calm technology to be necessary in the design of a future autonomous car to support a human-centered, as opposed to a car- or technology-centered, environment. A socio-technical and systemic lens is applied to the phenomenological investigation of nine companies carried out by means of twelve in-depth semi-structured interviews with experts working within the automotive sector, the smart city industry, and calm technology. Eight attributes (safety, on-demand, geo-tracking, sharing, multiple purposes, communication through smart devices, electrical care and IoT/connectedness) are identified as necessary for future autonomous cars to implement in order to take advantage of the smart city infrastructure and provide a human-centered experience. Additionally, six out of the eight calm technology principles recognized in literature are considered necessary when designing future autonomous cars.

This thesis is a step forward in travel time prediction for bus using data fusion. This study develops two models comprising a probabilistic model of the disturbance on the bus network and an accurate and reliable bus travel time prediction model that explicitly considers the bus-car interaction and dynamic passenger demand. The findings from this research can help develop real time traveller information systems and decision support systems to improve the quality of service provided to bus passengers.↲

This project investigated the origin of ancient continents (more than 2.5 billion years old) that are often thought to form by shallow melting in the Earth’s mantle. Here, modelling and analysis of rock chemistry show deep melting is much more likely to produce the rocks and minerals observed, including minerals trapped in diamonds. A new formation model for ancient continents is presented that can explain the hottest lavas to ever erupt on Earth, and the association of diamonds with very chemically depleted rocks.

How do firms tend to their current viability while remaining competitive in the long-term? This question lays out the basis for this thesis by highlighting their conflicting logics through the concept of organizational ambidexterity. Literature makes a distinction between competing in mature markets and existing technologies (exploitation) versus new markets and new technologies (exploration). The preponderance of studies shows that, as firms grow larger, they tend to form core rigidities in their culture, structure and processes that hamper their efforts to adapt to the changing environment. By overemphasizing exploitative activities, future challenges or opportunities remain unexplored which can have a devastating effect in the event of radical, external changes. The cases of Nokia and Kodak should serve as cautionary tales in this regard. The automotive industry is currently undergoing a transition to electric cars. We conduct a case study at Volvo Cars from a senior leadership perspective, to illustrate the importance of exploration and how it can be legitimized during an industry transformation. Our work points to three major findings. First, communicating the importance of the transformation with the rest of the organization is imperative to creating goal alignment. Secondly, interorganizational collaboration in R&D helps Volvo to tap into knowledge that resides outside the organization and thereby increasing the chances of a successful transition to electric cars. Thirdly, agile management contributes to knowledge diffusion and is a powerful tool to counter organizational inertia by adding to firms’ speed and responsiveness, making them act more similarly to smaller, entrepreneurial firms.

I sjuksköterskeprofessionen är omsorg en viktig del. Det används av sjuksköterskor varje dag och är en integral del i det bilaterala förhållandet mellan sjuksköterska och patient. Syftet med denna litteraturgranskning är att undersöka omsorg i omvårdnad samt se om omsorg kan orsaka utbrändhet. Författarna har granskat 11 vetenskapliga studier, gjorda till och med tio år tillbaka runt om i världen. Genom analysering av resultaten identifierades fem huvudteman: patientens syn på god omsorg, patientens syn på dålig omsorg, sjuksköterskans syn på god omsorg, sjuksköterskans syn på dålig omsorg, samt processen och konsekvenserna av utbrändhet.In the nursing profession, caring is the most essential part. It is used by nurses’ everyday and is an integral part in the responsive nurse-patient relationship. The main aim of this study was to investigate caring in nursing. Furthermore, because of Maslach (1998) statement that close contact within the nurse-patient relationship contributes to burnout in nurses, the authors wanted to investigate studies exploring the cause of burnout in nurses.Additionally, the cause of burnout in nurses is explored. The authors reviewed 11 scientific studies, performed in the past ten years around the world. The results showed that five main themes could be identified. These were: patient’s view of good care, patient’s view of bad care, nurse’s view of good care, nurse’s view of bad care, and the process and consequences of burnout.

Background Asthma is a public health problem in Latin America, where asthmatic children are mainly treated at emergency rooms during acute attacks. These attacks result in loss of lung function and quality of life for the asthmatic child and family, risk of death and high direct and indirect economic costs. In order to improve paediatric asthma management in Esmeraldas, Ecuador, we aimed to identify predictors of recurrent asthma attacks requiring emergency care and to explore the caregivers’ (CGs) and health care workers’ (HCWs) perceptions of barriers and facilitators to asthma health and home care access. Methods First, a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies analysing predictors for emergency department (ED) re-attendance or hospital readmission for acute asthma in children was performed. Second, a prospective cohort study of children treated for an asthma attack at an emergency room in Esmeraldas, Ecuador, was undertaken to define the characteristics of these children, determine the rate of ED re-attendance for acute asthma and identify the predictors for this to occur. Third, a qualitative study to explore acute asthma significance and perceived barriers and facilitators for health and home care access from the asthmatic children’s CGs’ and HCWs’ perspective was performed. Results In both the meta-analysis and prospective cohort study, children of a younger age and a history of severe asthma attacks during the previous year were at a greater risk of ED re-attendance for acute asthma. Forty six percent of the children recruited during the prospective cohort suffered a subsequent asthma attack requiring emergency care in the following 6 months. Other identified predictors of ED re-attendance for acute asthma were: existing asthma diagnosis (AOR: 2.17, 95% CI: 1.19-3.94; AHR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.15-2.39); food triggers (AOR: 1.99, 95% CI: 1.11-3.55); existing eczema diagnosis (AOR: 4.22, 95% CI 1.02-17.54); and urban residence as protective (AHR: 0.69, 95% CI: 0.50-0.95). Twelve HCWs and 20 CGs participated in the in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, expressing a differing significance of asthma attacks. This difference was also observed between experienced and inexperienced HCWs. Multiple barriers and several facilitators were identified by HCWs and CGs that affect health and home care access for asthmatic children. When shown the predictors of ED-reattendance for acute asthma combined in a risk-assessment tool, both HCWs and CGs reported finding the tool easy to use and understand, as well as a useful aid in the decision-making process concerning asthma treatment and follow-up. Conclusion A combination of several question-based predictors may result in an effective and simple risk-assessment tool to be used at the ED to identify asthmatic children at a higher risk of recurrent severe asthma attacks. Increasing CGs’ and HCWs’ asthma knowledge as well as HCWs’ communication skills, to establish a patient centred approach with a shared decision-making process could mean a difference in the quality of the asthma care in this setting. The use of the described recurrent risk assessment tool could prove useful in this process, as reported by the participants in this study.

Der Begriff Care wird im deutschsprachigen Raum zumeist mit Sorge, Fürsorge, fürsorglicher Praxis oder Sorgearbeit übersetzt. Als gemeinsamer Bezugspunkt theoretischer Konzeptionen kann gelten, dass Care eine spezifische Logik der Relationalität aufweist. Care fungiert in wissenschaftlichen, philosophischen und politischen Kontexten als sensibilisierendes Konzept zur Kategorisierung von Sorge sowie als Analyseinstrument, das auf die Kritik der geschlechtshierarchischen Arbeitsteilung und der kapitalistischen Produktionsverhältnisse gerichtet ist. Empirische Forschungsvorhaben zu Care weisen in ihren Fragestellungen häufig einen expliziten Bezug zur Geschlechterforschung auf.

Car-commercials are something that many people come in contact with on a daily basis. This is a study on commercials for cars and is focusing on visual effects that are made in post-production. In this report we are trying to find out if and how visual effects in commercials for cars affect how the observer remembers them. The second subjects that we use in this report is popularity and we try to find out if and in that case how visual effects affect the commercials for cars popularity. We also investigated how frequently commercials for cars are showed on TV and how the visual effects are in them, it gives a better foundation to the other parts. The methods we applied were interviews, quantitative and qualitative content analysis of car commercials and also observation analysis of the 6 swedish TV-channels that shows commercials and have the most viewers, to get an idea how frequently these commercials are shown. The commercials that were applied in this paper was from late 2011 to early 2012. Interviews were made with people from the ages 16 to 76 years old with an equal distribution of sexes. We used 4 different commercials for cars in our interviews with 4 different degrees of the amount of visual effects. We analyzed 6 Swedish TV-channels that show commercials and that have the most viewers to get an idea about how frequently commercials for car are shown. The result of our research showed us that there was no connection between visual effects and popularity and that a larger amount of visual effects can increase the observers tendency to remember a commercial with 15 percentage. Most commercials from the studied period was without visual effects and 13,3% had a larger amount of visual effects

El constante aumento de las capacidades de los dispositivos móviles ha gatillado un aumento significativo del uso de éstos. Adicionalmente ha aumentado la cantidad de tareas que se utilizan estos dispositivos. La idea principal detrás de la mayoría de estas tareas y funcionalidades incorporadas es ahorrarle tiempo valioso al usuario. En el ámbito de las comunicaciones interpersonales el uso de estos dispositivos es especialmente difundido y da origen a este trabajo. La problemática a resolver es facilitar a los usuarios la oportunidad de encontrarse cara a cara en escenarios de baja conectividad tradicional como es la red internet por ejemplo.
El sistema desarrollado, que intenta resolver esta problemática planteada, consiste en la creación de una aplicación que se conecta a una red móvil ad hoc, usando Wi-Fi, la cual no requiere la existencia de una infraestructura de comunicaciones entre dispositivos. El usuario de esta aplicación puede crear una lista de contactos (y grupos de éstos) y fijar una alerta sobre alguno de estos. En el momento en que un contacto marcado se encuentre cerca, el dispositivo avisará al usuario de esto. Se consideró que lo desarrollado pudiese funcionar tanto en equipos móviles de tipo Pocket PC como también en notebooks.
Inicialmente se investigó sobre herramientas existentes que se utilizarían para construir la solución propuesta y se realizaron varias pruebas. El producto final de este trabajo de título es una aplicación que funciona en dos sistemas operativos distintos (Microsoft Windows XP y Mobile 5), y permite a una persona individualizarse dentro de una red ah hoc, tener sus propios contactos y ser alertado de la cercanía de éstos. El sistema desarrollado permite al usuario dedicarse a tareas más importantes que coordinar un encuentro cara a cara y existen diversos ámbitos en que puede ser utilizado.
Otra particularidad del desarrollo es que se generó un código base que es utilizado por ambas plataformas generadas y que de esta forma se dejan abiertas numerosas posibilidades para trabajos futuros en que sólo deberá ser modificada esta base para lograr las mejoras deseadas en las plataformas mencionadas.

This DNP project focused on the spiritual aspects of care that are often neglected in the outpatient setting. Most patients value their spiritual health and believe that it is just as important as their mental and physical health. The purpose of this project was to improve the overall spiritual care provided to patients, their families, and/or caregivers in times when they were experiencing spiritual distress. This quality improvement (QI) project was designed to determine whether embedding a chaplain in an outpatient clinic instead of providing a pamphlet about chaplain services increases patient satisfaction. Secondary analysis of the data in this project show that of 306 patients who completed the 4-item screener, 70 patients were identified as having spiritual distress. There were 34 people who benefited from having an embedded chaplain. Spiritual distress was measured using a 10-item survey prior to and after seeing the chaplain; a 3.7 point decrease was seen across 6 patients. It was not a statistically significant improvement, largely due to the small sample (p=.08). Non-parametric chi square fisher exact results showed that satisfaction scores were higher in 5 patients seen by the chaplain (p=. 048) versus 4 not seen by the chaplain. Qualitative results were obtained from 5 chaplain participants were all positive. Though a very small sample, this QI project emphasizes that spiritual care needs are an integral part of holistic care provided through nursing practice. Nursing is tasked to be concerned with each person's human experience, which includes spirituality. This QI projects' contribution to positive social change is that it enhanced the health outcomes and quality of life of those participants involved.

Concussions are brain injuries--also called mild traumatic brain injuries--that affect the function of the brain temporarily or permanently. The purpose of this doctoral project was to develop an education module for staff at an urgent care center to address the lack of knowledge and low level of comfort regarding the care for patients with a head trauma. This project introduced and educated the clinical staff on an evidence-based protocol for the treatment and management of a patient with a concussion. The Rosswurm and Larrabee model for evidence-based change was used as a foundation for refining the practice question, gathering evidence, and translation of the protocol into the clinical setting. The Dreyfus model of the 5 stages of skill acquisition was used to measure the learners' level of achievement. A pretest and posttest were conducted to determine whether there was a gain in knowledge and confidence as a result of the project. There were 6 participants: 3 nonclinical staff and 3 nurses. Overall, there was a statistically significant improvement in confidence based on the Wilcoxon sign ranks test (z = -2.201; p = .028); however, a statistically significant increase in knowledge was not apparent, even though the scores did improve. All staff members were able to apply the practice guideline and make sound judgments using case studies. This project resulted in the translation of evidenced-based care into the urgent care setting, enhanced the confidence of the nursing staff, and has the potential to bring about positive social change by improving the quality of care that will be provided to patients with head injuries.
