Une intégration de la philosophie et de la pratique du Tai Ji Quan dans les curricula universitaires en France pour la prévention du stress et l'amélioration du bien-être des étudiants / Integrating the philosophy and practice of Tai Ji Quan in French university's curricula : reducing stress and improving well-being of studentsXu, Rong 22 June 2018 (has links)
À notre époque où le matérialisme est plus que présent et où l’enseignement supérieur s’obstine à s’orienter vers les besoins économiques et la compétition mondiale, le bien-être des étudiants reste un terrain négligé. En France, nous constatons une diminution des capacités de gestion du stress et la détérioration du bien-être chez les étudiants. Le Tai Ji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan), art martial basé sur la pensée du Tao, connu comme une pratique associant le corps et l’esprit, peut-il être introduit dans les curricula universitaires afin d’apporter l’aide dont ont besoin les étudiants pour gérer leur stress et parvenir au bien-être ? Pour répondre à cette question, nous avons exploité les sources de la théorie du Tai Ji Quan et sa contribution à l’éducation ; étudié les fondements de cette pratique et analysé les avantages et les inconvénients de formations similaires existant en Chine, afin de réfléchir à l’intégration d’un curriculum de Tai Ji Quan dans le système universitaire français. A partir d’une réalité clinique de terrain, des stages de Tai Ji Quan style Chen de 18 heures ont été organisés, sur une durée de huit semaines, en 2012 et en 2013. Une étude pilote quasi expérimentale et une étude qualitative à l’aide d’entretiens semi directifs a été menée. La première de ces études monte des effets bénéfiques du Tai Ji Quan sur la réduction du stress et l’augmentation du bien-être des étudiants. De plus, les scores attribués au stage à la question finale ont montré une forte motivation des étudiants. Les résultats des entretiens, complétés par les témoignages écrits du groupe expérimental de la première recherche, montrent les bienfaits physiologiques et mentaux acquis lors de la formation. Des bénéfices ont été constatés qui se prolongent dans la vie quotidienne des étudiants. Ces données qualitatives ont permis d’identifier les points sur lesquels le curriculum du Tai Ji Quan pouvait satisfaire les besoins des étudiants et d’évaluer son programme : contenu et durée, supports matériels, situation de travail chez soi, désir de persévérer, difficultés rencontrées pendant la pratique du Tai Ji Quan et remédiations, qualification des enseignants, ainsi que les valeurs de ce curriculum apportées aux apprentis, sur le plan éducatif et sociétal. / In a world driven by globalisation and materialism, higher education struggles with preparing students to excel in competition by offering extensive intellectural training, while how to nurture the well-being of students is still underexplored. In France, associted with the decrease of skills in stress management, French students’ well-being has been deteriorated year by year. Tai Ji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan), the martial art that is based on Taoism philosophy and traditional Chinese medicine and kown as a typical body-mind practice, has been proven to be effective in improving physical and mental health. How could Tai Ji Quan be integrated into university curricula to improve students’ well being ? To answer this question, we reviewed the theoretical roots of Tai Ji Quan and its contribution to education, we also examed its essential principles and analyzed the avantages and disadvantages of Tai Ji curriculum compared with other trainings courses in China. In order to explore means to integrate teaching Tai Ji Quan into French university system, we organized an 18-hour Chen style Tai Ji Quan training courses during an eight-week period at the University of Limoges (France) in 2012 and in 2013. We adopted a quasi-experimental pilot study and semi-structured interviews to collect data. Results show a strong motivation of students to engage in this practice, and show that our participants benefit physically and mentally from this training. They also reported that how this practice benefit them greatly in their daily lives. This study allows us to analyze at what extend that the Tai Ji Quan ‘s curriculum can satisfy the need of students ; discuss the design of curriculum programme. They also sheds lights how this curriculum can benefit students, the educational terms and the society overall.

Influence, information and item response theory in discrete data analysisMagis, David 04 May 2007 (has links)
The main purpose of this thesis is to consider usual statistical tests for discrete data and to present some recent developments around them. Contents can be divided into three parts.
In the first part we consider the general issue of misclassification and its impact on usual test results. A suggested diagnostic examination of the misclassification process leads to simple and direct investigation tools to determine whether conclusions are very sensitive to classification errors. An additional probabilistic approach is presented, in order to refine the discussion in terms of the risk of getting contradictory conclusions whenever misclassified data occur.
In the second part we propose a general approach to deal with the issue of multiple sub-testing procedures. In particular, when the null hypothesis is rejected, we show that usual re-applications of the test to selected parts of the data can provide non-consistency problems. The method we discuss is based on the concept of decisive subsets, set as the smallest number of categories being sufficient to reject the null hypothesis, whatever the counts of the remaining categories. In this framework, we present an iterative step-by-step detection process based on successive interval building and category count comparison. Several examples highlight the gain our method can bring with respect to classical approaches.
The third and last part is consecrated to the framework of item response theory, a field of psychometrics. After a short introduction to that topic, we propose first two enhanced iterative estimators of proficiency. Several theoretical properties and simulation results indicate that these methods ameliorate the usual Bayesian estimators in terms of bias, among others. Furthermore, we propose to study the link between response pattern misfit and subject's variability (the latter as individual latent trait). More precisely, we present "maximum likelihood"-based joint estimators of subject's parameters (ability and variability); several simulations suggest that enhanced estimators also have major gain (with respect to classical ones), mainly in terms of estimator's bias.

Temporal changes of shear wave velocity and anisotropy in the shallow crust induced by the 10/22/1999 m6.4 Chia-yi, Taiwan earthquakeChao, Tzu-Kai Kevin 09 April 2009 (has links)
Temporal changes of seismic velocity and anisotropy in the shallow crust are quantified using local earthquakes recorded at a 200-m-deep borehole station CHY in Taiwan. This station is located directly above the hypocenter of the 10/22/1999, M6.4 Chia-Yi earthquake. Three-component seismograms recorded at this station show clear direct (up-going) and surface-reflected (down-going) P- and S-waves, and S-wave splitting signals. The two-way travel times in the top 200 m is obtained by measuring the time delays between the up-going and down-going waves in the auto-correlation function. The S-wave travel times measured in two horizontal components increase by ~1-2% at the time of Chia-Yi main shock, and followed by a logarithmic recovery, while the temporal changes of S-wave splitting and P-wave are less than 1% and are not statistically significant. We obtain similar results by grouping earthquakes into clusters according to their locations and waveform similarities. This suggests that the observed temporal changes are not very sensitive to the seismic ray path below CHY, but are mostly controlled by the variation of material property in the top 200 m of the crust. We propose that strong ground motions of the Chia-Yi main shock cause transient openings of fluid-filled microcracks and increases the porosity in the near-surface layers, followed by a relatively long healing process. Because we observe no clear changes in the shear wave anisotropy, we infer that the co-seismic damages do not have a preferred orientation. Our results also show a gradual increase of time delays for both the fast and slow S-waves in the previous 7 years before the Chia-Yi main shock. Such changes might be caused by variations of water table, sediment packing or other surficial processes.

The Comparative Effects of Varying Cell Sizes on Mcnemar's Test with the Χ^2 Test of Independence and T Test for Related SamplesBlack, Kenneth U. 08 1900 (has links)
This study compared the results for McNemar's test, the t test for related measures, and the chi-square test of independence as cell sized varied in a two-by-two frequency table. In this study. the probability results for McNemar's rest, the t test for related measures, and the chi-square test of independence were compared for 13,310 different combinations of cell sizes in a two-by-two design. Several conclusions were reached: With very few exceptions, the t test for related measures and McNemar's test yielded probability results within .002 of each other. The chi-square test seemed to equal the other two tests consistently only when low probabilities less than or equal to .001 were attained. It is recommended that the researcher consider using the t test for related measures as a viable option for McNemar's test except when the researcher is certain he/she is only interested in 'changes'. The chi-square test of independence not only tests a different hypothesis than McNemar's test, but it often yields greatly differing results from McNemar's test.

Participatory action research project to improve sustainability at an international school in Ho Chi Minh City, VietnamMilstein, Shelley Reinette 30 November 2005 (has links)
Participatory Action Research (PAR) was carried out to improve educational practices and environmental sustainability in an International School in Vietnam by undertaking two cycles of PAR to determine how the school community could use paper on a more sustainable basis. The methodology included sorting paper and encouraging the reuse of paper. Practices related to computer printing, report writing and newsletter production were also investigated. Changes in the school community, in terms of accepting responsibility and demonstrating changed attitudes and behaviours, were measured.
The school community demonstrated greater awareness, increased responsibility and more action competence. Critical awareness of unsustainable practices increased. Individuals were able to effect change, but it is recommended that such actions should be institutionalised for such changes to be sustainable. Limitations and recommendations emphasise the need for continuing PAR to implement sustainability. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Environmental Education)

Conditions de travail de jeunes serveuses dans le quartier touristique de Hô Chi Minh Ville : une analyse des rapports sociaux de sexeAriey-Jouglard, Myriam 16 April 2018 (has links)
Tableau d’honneur de la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales, 2009-2010 / Le présent mémoire décrit les conditions de travail de jeunes serveuses à Phạm Ngũ Lạo, quartier touristique de Hồ Chí Minh Ville, au Việt Nam. Les serveuses, sans constituer un groupe homogène, vivent toutes une surcharge de travail, une grande fatigue, un stress intense face à la maladie et à la faiblesse de leurs revenus. Ces conditions affectent leur santé et leur bien-être. Ce mémoire analyse, dans une perspective féministe, les relations inégalitaires des serveuses avec leurs collègues masculins, leurs patrons et leurs clients. Ces relations, marquées par une forte différence de classe, sont complexifiées par la présence de nombreux étrangers parmi la clientèle. Fréquent, le harcèlement sexuel est omniprésent dans certains établissements. Les serveuses, confrontées à la pauvreté et à la précarité, courent le risque d’être entraînées vers la prostitution. Pour échapper à ce piège et améliorer leurs conditions, elles développent avec plus ou moins de succès diverses tactiques et stratégies. Mots-clés : serveuse, restauration, pauvreté, rapports sociaux de sexe, de classe et de race, genre et développement, quartier touristique, tourisme, tourisme sexuel, prostitution, harcèlement sexuel, tactiques et stratégies. / This thesis describes the working conditions of young waitresses in Phạm Ngũ Lạo, a touristic neighbourhood in Hồ Chí Minh City, Việt Nam. Waitresses, without constituting a homogenous group, are often subjected to heavy workloads and low earnings, which can lead to an intensification of stress, fatigue, and illness. The working conditions affect their health and well-being. This thesis analyzes, with a feminist perspective, the unequal relations between waitresses and their male counterparts, their superiors, and their clients. Those relations, clearly shaped by deep class disparities, are complexified by the presence of a foreign clientele. Sexual harassment is omnipresent in some establishments. Waitresses, confronted with poverty and insecurity, risk being drawn into prostitution. In order to escape this trap and to improve their conditions, they develop various tactics and strategies with mitigated outcome. Keywords: waitress, restauration, poverty, gender, class and race relations, gender and development, touristic neighbourhood, tourism, sexual tourism, prostitution, sexual harassment, tactics and strategies.

Outils d’urbanisme et investissements immobiliers privés : fabrication de l’espace central de Hô Chi Minh-ville / Planning tools and private real estate investments : production of the urban core of Ho Chi Minh CityNguyen, Cam Duong Ly 18 December 2013 (has links)
Depuis la Réforme économique en 1986, Hô Chi Minh-ville (HCMV) et particulièrement son centre (correspondant à l'ancienne Saigon) connaissent un boom de la construction, dans lequel les interventions du secteur privé jouent un rôle primordial. Or, Saigon, désormais partie de la métropole du Sud du Vietnam, possède un cadre bâti riche, formé par les modes de construction résultant d'une accumulation de cultures urbaines variées qui ont chacune laissé dans la ville leurs traces matérielles ; mais cet espace urbain complexe se trouve aujourd'hui mis en question par l'intense mouvement de construction que les institutions d'urbanisme vietnamiennes avec leurs outils (plans et projets d'urbanisme, documents législatifs et administratifs, programmes urbaines) semblent avoir peine à maîtriser. L'étude des mutations urbaines de cet espace à partir de leurs acteurs et vecteurs conduit cette recherche à une confrontation des outils d'urbanisme à leurs effets sur les transformations typo-morphologiques introduites par les initiatives privées dans le centre de HCMV, à travers l'histoire de sa construction urbaine depuis l'époque coloniale jusqu'à nos jours / Since the Economic Reform in 1986, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and its center (corresponding to the ancient Saigon) have in particular experienced a boom in construction, in which the private sector plays the key role. In addition, the city of Saigon, now part of the metropolis of south of Vietnam, has a rich urban structure formed by methods of construction which result from an accumulation of various urban cultures, each of them leaving material traces - a complex urban space now challenged by intense movement of construction which the Vietnamese planning institutions with their tools (plans and urban projects, legislative and administrative documents, urban programs) have not been effective in controlling. By studying the urban change of this space through its actors and vectors, this research leads us to a comparison of planning tools and their effects on the typo-morphological transformations introduced by private initiatives in the center of HCMC, through its history of urban construction since the colonial period until today
