A Phenomenological Inquiry: The Impact of the Process of Dietary Acculturation and the Nutritional Discourse in Canada on Female Immigrants with Type II diabetesKatem, Eman January 2015 (has links)
Nutritional communication research helps with public health promotion, government dietary intervention and future outlooks for the dietetics profession. This research explores the way health professionals target niche population groups to educate on nutrition. The phenomenological methodology and the Communication Accommodation theory framework guided interviews with 10 Arab-speaking females diagnosed with type II diabetes or prediabetes. The findings reveal eight major underlying themes: language, socio-economic impact, level of integration/adaption to new environment, role of religion in life, health is a personal responsibility, role of family/specific family members, role of health professional and views on the Canadian food/culture. Ultimately, dietary acculturation of the sample group is influenced by level of English language proficiency, health literacy, exposure to health information and cultural values.

Le conflit dialectique de la situation sociolinguistique en Algerie, de 1962 à nos jours / The dialectic conflict of the sociolinguistic in Algeria, from 1962 to the present dayKebieche, Redouane 25 March 2016 (has links)
Cette recherche porte sur la situation sociolinguistique en Algérie et sur les conflits linguistiques qu’elle a connus de 1962 à nos jours. L’objet de notre thèse se situe au croisement des facteurs historiques, politiques, socioculturels et des enjeux éducatifs. Il s’agit de développer une approche sociolinguistique afin d’analyser un conflit dialectique devenu permanent. Une première partie de ce travail met en évidence des aspects de ce conflit générés par l’opposition binaire entre le colonisateur et le colonisé. Nous proposons un aperçu historique remontant à 1830, en nous basant sur des témoignages historiques relatifs à la naissance de ce conflit identitaire, socioculturel et linguistique. Une deuxième partie analyse la situation sociolinguistique de 1962 à nos jours, une nouvelle période qui a vu apparaître un autre type de conflit. Il s’agit là d’un conflit tripartite, cette fois entre trois communautés linguistiques (arabophone, francophone, berbérophone) et leurs relations complexes et ambiguës. Après avoir présenté et étudié la situation dans le Maghreb en général et en Algérie en particulier, nous cherchons à comprendre les phénomènes et les pratiques sociolinguistiques que l’on peut observer actuellement auprès de la population algérienne. Une troisième partie comporte une étude empirique des comportements linguistiques et de la perception des différentes langues sur le terrain. Nous l’avons effectuée à l’aide d’un questionnaire destiné aux trois communautés linguistiques qui nous a permis d’évaluer le paysage sociolinguistique de la société algérienne dans des situations formelles et informelles et dans le rapport entre la sphère privée et la sphère publique. Au travers de cette recherche nous nous interrogeons sur la tension instaurée par ce conflit dialectique d’ordre sociolinguistique, dans un pays en proie à des divergences historiques, politiques et socioculturelles, mis face aux conséquences des politiques éducatives controversés de ces dernières décennies. Notre recherche soulève la question des enjeux de l’idéologisation et de la politisation de la question linguistique, mettant au jour ses effets sur l’image des langues en présence dans les perspectives des locuteurs algériens. / The research undertaken in this thesis is centred on the conflictive sociolinguistic situation in Algeria from 1962 until the present day. The main focus of this study can be found at the crossroads of historical factors with political and sociocultural ones as well as with questions pertaining to education. The aim is to develop a sociolinguistic approach of a permanent dialectic conflict. The first part of the study puts to the fore elements that characterise this conflict in its binary dimension between coloniser and colonised. We propose a historical vision of events that go back to 1830, basing our work on historical accounts pertinent to the origins of a sociocultural and linguistic conflict of identity. The second part analyses the sociolinguistic situation from 1962 until the present, a new period that has witnessed the arrival of new forms of conflict of a threefold type in accordance to three components related to the three linguistic communities (Arab-speaking, French-speaking and Berber-speaking) and to the complex and ambiguous relationships they entertain with one another. After the presentation of this question as regards the wider field of North Africa, we centre our study specifically on Algeria and seek to understand the sociolinguistic phenomena and practices developed by Algerians. A third part is devoted to an empirical field study based on a questionnaire aimed at the three linguistic communities. This work has enabled us to evaluate the sociolinguistic landscape of Algerian society in formal and informal situations, and in the relationship between private and public space. This study questions the tensions arising from a sociolinguistic situation that evolved from historical, political, socio-cultural an educational reasons. It brings to light questions pertaining to a certain ideological and political use of the linguistic aspects of the country, highlighting the effects on the image of the languages concerned as regards the perspectives of Algerian speakers.

Migration och identitet : En kvalitativ intervjustudie med arabisktalande kvinnliga immigranter i Sverige / Migration and identity : A qualitative interview study with arabic speaking female immigrants in SwedenSargun Dawod, Tanya, Pettersson Dahl, Katja January 2018 (has links)
Migration is a current subject in today's society. Many people are forced to migrate to a new country, but many of them are moving for other reasons, for example to study, to work or start a family. The aim of this paper is to gain an increased understanding of Arabic speaking female immigrant’s experiences of the adaptation process and whether there is a change in gender identity. The selection consists of Arabic speaking women who have lived in Sweden for a maximum of five years. A qualitative approach has been used and data were collected through interviews and analyzed within the themes that were presented by the research. In analysis, four such themes were identified, such as identity, social relations, cultural differences and migration processes. The result of the study shows that the majority of the respondents perceive that they have been affected by migration, that they have experienced cultural differences in Sweden compared with their homelands and that they are influenced by their social relations. / Migration är ett aktuellt ämne i dagens samhälle. Många människor tvingas fly, men många flyttar även av andra skäl, för att exempelvis studera, arbeta eller bilda familj. Syftet med arbetet är att få en ökad förståelse kring arabisktalande kvinnliga immigranters upplevelser av anpassningsprocessen och huruvida det sker en förändring gällande deras könsidentitet. Urvalet består av arabisktalande kvinnor som flytt från sina hemländer och som har bott i Sverige i högst fem år. En kvalitativ ansats har använts och data samlades in genom intervjuer och analyserades med tematisk analys. Vid analys framkom fyra övergripande teman som var identitet, sociala relationer, kulturella skillnader och migrationsprocessen. Resultatet av undersökningen visar på att majoriteten av respondenterna upplever att de har påverkats av migrationen, att de har upplevt kulturella skillnader i Sverige jämfört med deras hemländer och att de har influerats av deras sociala relationer.
