Através dos pressupostos teóricos da Análise do Discurso, buscamos refletir sobre a leitura, a rede, o sujeito e a produção de sentidos, de uma maneira mais crítica e fecunda, que não leva em conta apenas as questões técnicas, ligadas à materialidade do arquivo, mas a sua dimensão político-ideológica. Procuramos analisar a produção e circulação de sentidos nos arquivos discursivos sobre a leitura, materializados em blogs, redes sociais e outras páginas eletrônicas voltadas para a questão das práticas de leitura, especialmente em ambientes comunitários, dentro e fora da Rede. Pretendemos analisar, também, como a língua significa em sua materialidade digital, observando os embates entre diferentes posições-sujeito e vozes discursivas imbricadas no corpus apresentado. Objetivamos ainda refletir sobre a ideologia como mecanismo de naturalização dos sentidos e produção de evidências sobre alguns discursos acerca da leitura, e não outros, marcando o que pode ou não ser dito. Para atingir esses objetivos, inicialmente, discorremos sobre algumas questões teóricas que compõem o mundo dos arquivos e redes digitais, a partir de um estofo teórico transdisciplinar que envolve, especialmente, os campos da comunicação, do discurso, da sociologia e da filosofia. Em seguida, trazemos à luz alguns pressupostos teóricos da Análise do Discurso, perspectiva da qual se partiu para tecer, no capítulo seguinte, algumas considerações acerca da leitura e suas novas configurações assumidas no meio digital, o qual apresenta novas possibilidades de significação, um novo funcionamento discursivo observado na análise do nosso corpus, que foi organizado em torno de três entradas discursivas, nas quais é conferido à leitura um caráter comunitário e de compartilhamento de sentidos constituídos para/no ato de ler. / Beginning with the theoretical-analytical foundation of the French Discourse Analysis we reflect on the reading, the Internet, the subject and the production of meaning through a more critical and fruitful manner that does not take just the technical aspects related to the archives materiality into account, but its political- ideological dimension. We tried to analyze the production and circulation of meanings in discursive archives about reading that are materialized in blogs, social networks and others dedicated to the reading practices, particularly in community spaces in and out of Internet. We also intend to analyze how language means in its digital materiality, observing the conflicts between different subject-positions and discursive voices intertwined in the corpus that was presented. We also aim to reflect on the ideology as a mechanism for naturalization of the senses and produce evidences about some discourses on reading instead of others, marking what It is possible to be said. In order to achieve these objectives, at first we will discuss about some theoretical issues on the world of archives and networks, from a transdisciplinary theoretical framework involving especially the fields of communication, discourse, sociology and philosophy. Then we will bring some theoretical concepts of Discourse Analysis; from this perspective, in the following section, we will present some statements about the reading and its new configurations in the digital medium, which presents new possibilities of meaning, a new discursive operation observed in the analysis of our corpus, which was organized around three discursive entries, in which the reading has a community trait besides sharing of senses produced for/in reading.

Esse trabalho pretende lidar com aspectos da relação entre a obra do escritor Franz Kafka (1883-1924) e a história. Parto da hipótese de que essa relação complexa é melhor observada a partir da exposição de deficiências históricas na elaboração de sentido do que a partir da exposição objetiva de processos sociais. Essa exposição da deficiência de sentido constitui uma literatura peculiar na qual convivem impossibilidade e narração, sem prejuízo, no entanto, da configuração de uma modalidade específica de realismo, atestada pela coexistência singularmente harmoniosa de situações transfiguradas e cotidiano. As articulações desenvolvidas concentram-se mais detalhadamente nas narrativas presentes no volume Um Médico Rural (Ein Landarzt). / This article aims to review some aspects of the relationship between the work of the writer Franz Kafka (1883-1924) and history. It draws on the idea that this complex relationship can be better understood by examining the construction of sense and its historical deficiencies, rather than through an objective description of social processes. The unique form of literature that results from the expression of these deficiencies combines impossibility and narrative, but that does not hinder the configuration of a specific modality of realism, characterized by the peculiarly harmonious coexistence of transfigured situations and everyday life. The arguments presented here focus mainly on the narrative of A Country Doctor (Ein Landarzt).

Visita cenas capturadas da peça teatral O Livro de Jó, encenada pela primeira vez no hospital Umberto Primo na capital paulista no início de 1995. Essas imagens, carregadas de significados e possibilidades, reverberam o contínuo movimento cênico a que se destinam e o desejo latente de se tornarem teatro pela força e pelo fluxo de sua intensidade. São imagens carregadas de dramaticidade e violência que também se aproximam da obra não menos perturbadora e pulsante do pintor irlandês Francis Bacon. Entre imagens do teatro e imagens do pintor, há uma corredeira de sensações que nos carrega, entre outros, aos franceses Artaud e Deleuze. / Abstract: This dissertation, body-text-image, is a writing which is potentiated by the strength of the images, that runs away from its performing for being felt. It visits scenes caught by the play "The Book of Job ", staged for the first time at Umberto Primo Hospital São Paulo city in the early of 1995.These images, full of meanings and possibilities, reverberate around the continuous scenic movement for which they are intended, and the strong desire of becoming theater by the force and by the flow of its intensity. They are images loaded with drama and violence that also approaching the work, not least disruptive and pulsing to the Irish painter Francis Bacon. Between the images of the theater and images of the painter, there is a strong linking of sensations that lead us, among others, to the French Artaud and Deleuze. / Mestrado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Mestre em Educação

Positiv empati kan definieras som att dela och förstå någon annans positiva känslor. Studiens syfte var att översätta den amerikanska positive empathy scale (PES), testa den på svenska högskolestudenter samt relatera PES till känsla av sammanhang (KASAM). En enkätstudie med 181 deltagare genomfördes där deltagarna skattade positiv empati och KASAM. Studiens resultat visade att den svenska översättningen av PES var tillförlitlig, mätt med Cronbach ́s alpha. Resultatet visade även att kvinnor tenderade ha högre positiv empati än män, men att ålder inte resulterade i högre positiv empati. Med hjälp av en hierarkisk multipel regressionsanalys visade resultatet att högre KASAM gav högre positiv empati. Studien visar att det nu finns en svensk positiv empatiskala som verkar tillförlitlig, även om den behövs testas vidare för att bidra till en djupare förståelse i ämnet.

Abstract Dental diseases such as dental caries and periodontal disease could well be seen as being behaviour-related. The high prevalence of periodontal disease in the Finnish adult population mirrors the need for improving oral health behaviours in a comprehensive manner. Thus far, scant attention has been drawn to the underlying psycho-social factors that could, in part, explain oral health and oral health behaviours. Deficiencies in oral health behaviour may also be indicative of an individual's poor health behaviour in general. The aim of this study was to introduce the salutogenic approach, called sense of coherence, into the domain of oral health and health behaviour. The present study uses data from the nationally representative Health 2000 survey carried out in 2000–2001 by the National Public Health Institute of Finland. The subjects of this study numbered 4175 in article I, 4131 in article II, 4039 in article III, and 4096 in article IV, and were 30- to 64-year-old dentate men and women. The cross-sectional data was collected via home interviews, self-administered questionnaires, or clinical examinations. Sense of coherence was positively associated with oral health behaviours, such as dental attendance and tooth-brushing frequency. In addition to tooth-brushing frequency, sense of coherence was also positively associated with the level of oral hygiene. The association between sense of coherence and level of oral hygiene weakened only marginally after controlling for tooth-brushing frequency. A strong sense of coherence was strongly associated with a positive oral health-related quality of life (OHIP). Sense of coherence was also associated with all of the OHIP sub-scales, and the association was most evident in the psychological discomfort, psychological disability and handicap sub-scales. Among males, health behaviours seemed multidimensional, whereas they tended to be unidimensional among females. A strong sense of coherence was a common determinant of healthy behaviours in general, as well as of a good subjective health status. The present study recognizes the sense of coherence as a common health-promoting determinant of oral and general health behaviours, good oral health, and a good oral health-related quality of life. The results thus suggest that the role of psycho-social factors should not be underestimated in health promotion.

This phenomenological study contributes to scholarship on the geographies of higher education by examining the importance of “place” for the design and planning of college campuses. In particular, the study explores the lifeworlds of two community college campuses in British Columbia, Canada, comparing the “sense of place” at an urban campus in the lower mainland of British Columbia with a rural campus on Vancouver Island. In contrast to conventional treatments of the campus as absolute space, this dissertation considers how higher education campuses serve as places of meaning to those who use them. Using a combination of natural walk-along interviews and mental mapping methods with 23 participants, the findings from this study support Seamon’s (2013) contention that places – in this case, college campuses – are interanimations of people and their physical environments where meanings and a sense of place are created through the practices of daily routines. Participant responses also suggest that a sense of belonging to community, with its concomitant academic benefits, is advanced by encouraging a feeling of “at-homeness” on campus. These findings put into question the reliance of conventional campus design and planning approaches on the visual impact of the built environment to create a sense of place. Instead, building from Gehl (2011), they highlight how design and planning efforts that support the gathering of people and their routine use of campus spaces can foster the “place-ballets” that make vibrant and distinctive places. In generating spontaneous interpersonal encounters, place-ballet also sets the conditions understood to support the creation of new knowledge. To advance the notion of place-ballet, the study concludes by offering the neighbourhood as a model for campus design and planning that both connects home to community and encourages citizen engagement. / Graduate

Magister Psychologiae - MPsych / Community violence has been found to have profound negative effects on the lives of those exposed to it daily. The victims often tend to be adolescents, who, while striving for a better future, are often quite vulnerable to its effects. The present study focuses on the perception’s parents hold of their adolescent’s sense of safety and future aspirations in a community with high levels of violence. The data was collected by means of semi-structured interviews with participants residing in a community prone to violence. The researcher purposively sampled eight participants and conducted interviews in both English and Afrikaans.

Number sense is a basic concept within Mathematics. This basic knowledge is developed and often mastered in early compulsory school settings. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the different conceptions of mathematics teachers and students with attention difficulties in regards to the possibilities of these students to develop good number sense. The theory used to analyse this data is twofold. One perspective of it is directly connected to previous research on the topic therefore a literature overview is included in the paper. The second perspective is current research about educative methods and the field of special education. Special education and current research is discussed in relation to interdisciplinary fields of study such as Psychology and Sociology. The paper is a case study where three mathematics teachers and three students with attention difficulties participated to explain their conceptions and thoughts regarding the topic. A thematic overview was created using the collected data. The result shows that the majority of the students and the teachers believe there is a connection between difficulties in developing good number sense and attention difficulties. Both groups explain that consequences of attention difficulties often are low work input during mathematics lessons and low motivation regarding the lessons. The groups also suggested educational methods in the classroom and the approach or attitude of the teacher made a difference.

Nous avons réalisé une enquête par questionnaire auprès de 65 anciens enfantsjuifs cachés durant la deuxième guerre mondiale, situation évaluée comme untraumatisme dans l’enfance, ainsi qu’auprès de leurs enfants. Nous avons comparé cesanciens enfants cachés à 65 sujets ni juifs ni cachés d’âge comparable. Dans unpremier temps, nous nous sommes intéressés au degré d’anxio-dépression de cespopulations consécutivement en tenant compte de deux variables :l’existence dupremier traumatisme dans l’enfance (enfants cachés ou non) et la présence oul’absence d’éventuels traumatismes ultérieurs. L’effet de ces deux variables surl’anxio-dépression a été expliqué par leurs effets sur les compétences de résilience.Les variables Anxio-Dépression et Résilience ont été mesurées quantitativement surbase d’échelles validées. De plus, nous nous sommes intéressés à un concept prochede la résilience, le Sens de la Cohérence (SOC), également mesuré sur base d’uneéchelle quantitative validée. Quatre résultats majeurs ressortent de notre enquête.Premièrement, nous avons démontré que la résilience subit une érosion sousl’effet de traumatismes multiples (phénomène de sensibilisation), ce qui augmente lerisque de développer des troubles anxio-dépressifs. De ce fait, la résilience n’est pasun trait de personnalité, fixé pour la vie entière une fois le développementpsychologique de l’individu accompli, mais s’assimile à une aptitude, susceptible des’éroder mais aussi de se renforcer par des techniques psychothérapeutiquesspécifiques. Nous confirmons les résultats des précédentes recherches montrant que larésilience n’est pas un bloc monolithique mais plutôt un concept multifactoriel quis’appuie sur les ressources propres de l’individu, celles de son milieu familial et cellesde son milieu social.Deuxièmement, nous avons pu démontrer que le SOC s’érode lui aussi sousl’effet de traumatismes multiples mais que, contrairement à la résilience, il a unedouble composante, à la fois aptitude et trait de personnalité ;c’est-à-dire qu’unepartie du SOC ne s’érode pas en fonction des expériences traumatiques rencontrées aulong de l’existence et apparaît comme une composante stable fixée dès l’enfance.Troisièmement, notre recherche a permis de démontrer que la survenue d’untraumatisme ultérieur aggrave la perception qu’a un individu d’un traumatisme subidurant l’enfance, montrant en cela que la mémoire et les souvenirs ne sont pas figésune fois pour toutes mais sont en perpétuel remaniement, modelés par les interactionsconstantes entre le passé et le présent.Quatrièmement, notre recherche a montré que la présence d’un traumatismemajeur chez les parents peut engendrer une altération du fonctionnement familial quiempêcherait leurs enfants de développer des stratégies efficientes d’adaptation auxstress et aux traumatismes (résilience et SOC), ce qui favorise, chez eux, ledéveloppement de troubles anxio-dépressifs.Au travers de ces conclusions, nous abordons les conséquences à la foisthéoriques et cliniques.
