No. of bitstreams: 1 Paula Alcaraz Gomes Sant’Anna_.pdf: 27370392 bytes, checksum: 964fd836449dc6df59e0a8c04f53e431 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-09-27 / Nenhuma / A área de estudo do design para a emoção explora o espaço de influência e contribuição do design na esfera psicológica dos usuários com o objetivo de gerar estratégias de design que possam estimular determinadas emoções ou facilitar o seu bem-estar. Nesse contexto, o ponto de partida para o processo projetual é a investigação dos concerns do usuário, aspecto que determina a dinâmica de suas motivações e emoções. A abordagem teórico-metodológica dilemma-driven design (design orientado para o dilema) investiga um aspecto específico dos concerns: o seu ponto de conflito, fator responsável por grande parte do desconforto emocional que experienciamos diariamente. O método estimula a geração de estratégias de design capazes de equilibrar os concerns conflitantes (dilemas) dos usuários a fim de facilitar sua maior percepção de bem-estar. O objetivo desta pesquisa é verificar como o uso dos concerns conflitantes pode contribuir ao processo projetual do design no contexto da maternidade. Para tanto, foi escolhido um objeto de estudo característico por seus conflitos emocionais: a experiência da maternidade. A pesquisa empírica se estruturou na natureza qualitativa exploratória e teve como método condutor as diretrizes do design orientado para o dilema. Sua primeira etapa consistiu de um grupo focal com usuários (mães) para a descoberta de seus concerns e principais dilemas. Esse conteúdo foi utilizado como substrato teórico à etapa projetual, composta por dois workshops nos quais designers desenvolveram ideias de design de SPS (sistema produto-serviço), sendo que um dos grupos projetou para concerns conflitantes a partir do método design orientado para o dilema, e o outro projetou para concerns múltiplos com métodos livres. Os resultados da pesquisa sugerem uma nova formatação ao dilema (multipolar), capaz de atender a múltiplos concerns conflitantes simultaneamente. Além disso, abre-se caminho para projetos de SPS voltados para impactar diversos usuários, e provoca-se o debate acerca da influência positiva do designer-usuário no desempenho projetual. / The area of study of emotional design explores the space of influence and contribution of design in the psychological sphere of users with the aim of generating design strategies that can stimulate certain emotions or facilitate their well-being. In this context, the starting point for the design process is the investigation of the user's concerns, an aspect that determines the dynamics of his motivations and emotions. The theoretical-methodological approach dilemma-driven design investigates a specific aspect of the concerns: its point of conflict, factor responsible for much of the emotional discomfort we daily experience. The method stimulates the generation of design strategies capable of balancing the conflicting concerns (dilemmas) of the users in order to facilitate their greater perception of well-being. The purpose of this research is to verify how the use of conflicting concerns can contribute to the design design process. For this, it was chosen a object of study characterized by their emotional conflicts: the experience of motherhood. The empirical research was structured in the qualitative exploratory nature and had the directives of dilemma-driven design as the guiding method. Its first stage consisted of a focus group with users (mothers) to discover their concerns and main dilemmas. This content was used as a theoretical substrate for the design process, composed of two workshops in which designers developed PSS (product-service system) design ideas, and one of the groups projected to conflicting concerns oriented by the dilemma-driven design method, and the other designed for multiple concerns with free methods. The results of the research suggest a new format for the dilemma (multipolar), capable of meeting multiple conflicting concerns simultaneously. In addition, it opens the way for PSS projects aimed at impacting several users, and the debate about the positive influence provoked by the designer-user on the design process performance.

Trois modules seront développés: Le module de détection a produit une analyse des problématiques figurations con, à savoir un ensemble de domaines où soit quelques nouveaux DDL ou des changements locaux dans les contraintes sont obligatoires. Le module de traitement permettra à la défi nition des mécanismes pour aider la décision sur modi cations. Le module de prédiction dire le degré de déformation en pré-analyser les caractéristiques des configurations de NURBS. / Three modules will be developed: The detection module has produced an analysis of problematic con figurations, i.e. a set of areas where either some new DOFs or some local changes in the constraints are mandatory. The treatment module will enable the defi nition of mechanisms to help the decision on modi cations. The prediction module will tell the degree of deformation by pre-analyzing the features of NURBS configurations.

Comportements stratégiques et changements institutionnels lors du processus initial d'accréditation internationale AACSB (2003) : le cas d'une Business School universitaire française : l'EM Strasbourg / Strategics behaviors and institutional changes during the initial AACSB accreditation process (2003) : the case study of a French University Business School : EM Strasbourg Business School

Bouteraa, Fatiha 27 September 2017 (has links)
Les objectifs de la thèse sont de comprendre : 1) les mécanismes de diffusion, d’adoption et d’institutionnalisation des accréditations internationales, 2) les comportements stratégiques mobilisés à l’égard notamment du processus initial d’accréditation institutionnelle AACSB, 3) les réponses stratégiques et organisationnelles pour gérer les demandes institutionnelles conflictuelles provoquées par les injonctions des 21 standards AACSB (2003) et 4) les changements opérés en vue de l’alignement aux injonctions du processus initial prescrit et des 21 standards AACSB (2003). Dans une perspective néo-institutionnaliste, nous mobilisons un cadre d’analyse alliant les comportements stratégiques et le changement institutionnel. Pour répondre aux objectifs de la recherche, une étude de cas longitudinale rétrospective et en temps réel sur 15 ans d’une business school universitaire française est menée. Les résultats de la recherche permettent d’enrichir notamment le cadre d’analyse d’Oliver (1991) d’une sixième réponse stratégique et de trois tactiques dans le cas d’un processus initial d’accréditation institutionnelle AACSB. / This research aims to understand: 1) the mechanisms of diffusion, adoption and institutionalization of international accreditations, 2) the strategic behaviors adopted to respond to the initial AACSB accreditation process, 3) the strategic and organizational responses to the conflictual demands originated by the 21 AACSB 2003 standards and 4) the changes occurred in order to ensure the organizations’ alignment to the 21 AACSB 2003 standards and to the required process.Based on a neo-institutional perspective, we used two conceptual frameworks about strategic responses and institutional change. In order to comply with our objectives, we have conducted a 15-year longitudinal case study both retrospectively and in real time within the only French business school operating inside a university. The principal result of the research is the identification of a 6th new strategic response for Oliver’s (1991) framework as well as three tactics to be adopted in the initial AACSB accreditation process.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fernanda Robert de Carvalho Santos Silva.pdf: 256026 bytes, checksum: bbd79ae11fa117556d64316371da5b79 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008-12-04 / Pontif?cia Universidade Cat?lica de Campinas / The World Health Organization describes the violence against women ; committed by an intimate partner ; as the most frequent form of this violence. The current conflicts occur because of the continuation of relationship patterns ; with feelings ; defenses and anxiety which happen repeatedly. This research intends to obtain measures of internal consistency ; converging validity and also the authenticity of the criteria of the Central Relationship Questionnaire CRQ ; a tool of self-report which evaluates the pattern of core conflictual relationship expressed in the relationship with a love partner ; by dimensions: wishes (W) (D) ; responses from other (RO) and responses of other (RE). The sample ; not random ; was composed by a case group (GC) ; of 32 women ; with ages between 19 and 56 (A=38.91; DP=10.25; Mo = 44) in a situation of marital violence; and a non case group (GNC) ; sample by convenience ; of 22 women ; with age between 18 and 37 (A = 32.26;DP=6.18 ; Mo=18) ; pregnant admitted to a maternity center to give birth and who did not suffer sexual violence and did not find themselves in a violent situation. In the GC ; 75% suffered physical violence ; 93.8% suffered psychological violence and 18.8% suffered sexual violence. As an external criteria measure of the CRQ ; the Scale of Symptoms Evaluation EAS-40 ; which measures four dimensions: psychoticism ; obsession-compulsion ; somatization and anxiety. Regarding the internal consistency of the CRQ ; the values of Cronbach alpha for GC varied between 0.59 and 0.83 and in the GNC ; between 0.76 and 0.81. For EAS- 40 in the GC they varied between 0.75 and 0.93 and in the GNC between 0.84 and 0.88. There was no substantial difference between the average scores of the CRQ between the groups; for the EAS-40 the discriminating validity of the tool with substantial differences between the groups regarding the gravity of the psychological symptoms was demonstrated. The substantial correlation between the ROs and the total score of the EAS-40 was found in the study of the converging validity ; and the dimensions: psychoticism and obsession-compulsion; between the REs and the obsessioncompulsion dimension. The results suggest that the Portuguese version of the Brazilian CRQ allows us to reliably evaluate the core pattern of conflict ; expressed in the relationship of women who are victims of violence and their love partners. The internal consistency of the tool is similar to its original version and allows us to properly discern women who are victims of violence from other ones who did not suffered violent events. Research with randomized samples must be carried out. / A Organiza??o Mundial de Sa?de descreve a viol?ncia contra a mulher ; perpetrada por parceiro ?ntimo ; como a forma mais freq?ente de viol?ncia. Os conflitos atuais decorrem da manuten??o de padr?es de relacionamentos ; com sentimentos ; defesas e ansiedade que se repetem. Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo obter medidas de consist?ncia interna ; validade convergente e validade de crit?rio do Central Relationship Questionnaire CRQ ; instrumento de auto-relato que avalia o padr?o de relacionamento central conflituoso ; expresso na rela??o com o parceiro amoroso ; por meio das dimens?es: desejos (D) ; respostas do outro (RO) e respostas do eu (RE). A amostra ; n?o aleat?ria ; ficou composta por um grupo caso (GC) ; de 32 mulheres ; com idades entre 19 e 56 anos (M=38 ;91; DP=10 ;25; Mo=44) em situa??o de viol?ncia conjugal; e grupo n?o caso (GNC) ; amostra por conveni?ncia ; de 22 mulheres ; com idades entre 18 e 37 anos (M=32 ;26; DP=6 ;18 ; Mo=18) ; gestantes internadas em uma maternidade para dar a luz e que n?o sofreram viol?ncia sexual ; nem se encontravam em situa??o de viol?ncia. No GC ; 75% sofreram viol?ncia f?sica ; 93 ;8% viol?ncia psicol?gica e 18 ;8% viol?ncia sexual. Como medida de crit?rio externa do CRQ foi utilizada a Escala de Avalia??o de Sintomas EAS-40 que mede quatro dimens?es: psicoticismo ; obsessividade-compulsividade ; somatiza??o e ansiedade. Com rela??o ? consist?ncia interna do CRQ os valores de alpha de Cronbach para GC variaram entre 0 ;59 e 0 ;83 e no GNC ; entre 0 ;76 e 0 ;81. Para EAS-40 no GC variaram ente 0 ;75 e 0 ;93 e no GNC entre 0 ;84 e 0 ;88. N?o houve diferen?a significativa entre os escores m?dios do CRQ entre os grupos; para a EAS-40 demonstrou validade discriminante do instrumento com diferen?as significativas entre os grupos em rela??o ? severidade dos sintomas psicol?gicos. No estudo da validade convergente encontrou-se correla??o significativa entre as RO e o escore total da EAS-40 ; e as dimens?es: psicoticismo e obsessvidadecompulsividade; e entre as RE e a dimens?o obsessividade-compulsividade. Os resultados sugerem que a vers?o em portugu?s do Brasil do CRQ 6.0 permite avaliar de forma fidedigna o padr?o central de conflito ; expresso no relacionamento de mulheres v?timas de viol?ncia e seus parceiros amorosos. O instrumento det?m consist?ncia interna semelhante ? vers?o original do instrumento e permite discriminar de forma adequada mulheres v?timas de viol?ncia de outras n?o submetidas a epis?dios de viol?ncia.

新聞言說結構對資訊處理策略影響之研究 / Study of News Discourse Structure Influences Strategies of infor- mation Processing.

林珍良, Lin, Chen Liang Unknown Date (has links)
本研究從新聞整體結構與認知心理學的角度出發,討論讀者如何處理「兩面俱陳」與「單面呈現」兩種不同的新聞言說結構,希望同時觀照訊息與閱聽人兩個面向,更完整描繪新聞媒體訊息與閱聽人兩者之間傳播過程的面貌。研究發現,當個人對新聞報導事件的議題或主角存有先前態度,則新聞言說結構對讀者的資訊處理策略影響並不明顯。影響讀者如何使用資訊處理策略的關鍵在於讀者的先前態度與新聞內容是否一致。研究也發現,在討論個人的資訊處理流程時,要從不同的資訊處理工作區分開來分析中,因為在不同的資訊處理工作階段,個人的處理策略可能會有差異。   未來研究方向可以同時從整體訊息結構的特質、不同的認知效果以及可能影響訊息與傳播效果之間的中介變項等三個方向來研究傳播現象,所得到的研究結果可能可以更完整地解釋訊息的傳播過程與效果。

Limity přístupu politické kondicionality EU na západním Balkáně / The Limits of the EU's Political Conditionality Approach in the Western Balkans

Křiklánová, Michaela January 2019 (has links)
The thesis aims to unravel the relationship between the EU's enlargement strategies and democratization in the Western Balkan countries by looking on the impact of the strategies on changing democracy levels in two empirical cases: the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia and Serbia. Over more than a decade, the effect of the conditionality tool on democratization has been curbed by an insufficient emphasis placed on pro-democratic reforms and by the role of security concerns which were often prioritized over aims directly linked to democracy promotion. Grounded in the conflicting objectives theory, the thesis demonstrates that the recently employed strategy appropriately sequencing goals while prioritizing democratic transition over security concerns is more effective in inflicting domestic democratic change. Subsequently, the following necessary and sufficient conditions for a successful sequencing strategy were defined: strong emphasis on democracy-related goals combined with clearly outlined temporal perspective, and corresponding action of international actors.

The Time Before a Crisis : An evaluation of Region Östergötland’s pre-crisis phase before the COVID-19 pandemic

Björnqvist, Anton January 2021 (has links)
During the spring of 2020, COVID-19 rapidly started to spread within Sweden, causing a crisis that affected the entire society, and in particular, the health care sector. What makes the COVID-19 pandemic a unique crisis is that it did not appear as a complete surprise when it reached Sweden. Partly because pandemics are expected to happen and therefore anticipated, partly because reports of COVID-19 and its effects were available before the disease caused a crisis in Sweden. This makes the phase before the crisis, known as the pre-crisis phase, quite long. For this study, it is argued that the pre-crisis phase encompasses actions taken before COVID-19 was known, predominantly in the form of the development of pandemic preparedness plans, as well as the actions taken when COVID-19 was known before it reached Sweden. However, due to the decentralisation of the Swedish political system, the twenty-one regions being responsible for the health care sector, and the uneven geographical transmission of the virus, the pre-crisis phase most likely differed across the country. In this study, it is the pre-crisis phase of Region Östergötland which has been examined and evaluated as a part of the Center for Disaster Medicine and Traumatology’s general evaluation of the COVID-19 pandemic in Östergötland. The study has aimed to answer the research questions related to how the pre-crisis phase was conducted, and how three different theories can contribute to the understanding of the pre-crisis phase. The theories used were Conflicting Objectives Perspective, High Reliability Organisation, and Resilience Engineering. To answer the research questions, semi-structured interviews with eight employees of Region Östergötland involved in the pre-crisis phase were conducted. The interviews were analysed using the thematic analysis approach. The thematic analysis showed that the pre-crisis phase was mainly characterised by organisational changes within the regular organisational structures, different challenges predominately related to acquiring personal protective equipment, a lack of information from the national agencies, and a slight underestimation. These themes were used to answer the first research question. To answer the second research question, the aforementioned theories were applied to the themes. This application showed that there are aspects of the three theories that can contribute to the understanding of the pre-crisis phase. These aspects can also be used during future pre-crisis phases. Furthermore, based on the contributions of the three theories and the thematic analysis, a new model was developed which can be used to describe the different phases of the pre-crisis phase. The application of the theories and the new model resulted in general guidelines highlighting the important processes during a pre-crisis phase, including the processes of monitoring, anticipating, planning, and preparing.

Rektors styrning och ledning; frirum och korstryck : - Att organisera för samarbetet mellan fritidshem och grundskola

Mokvist Koutakis, Carina January 2020 (has links)
Syftet är att bidra med kunskap om rektors styrning och ledning när hen organiserar samarbetet mellan fritidshemmet och grundskolan. Frågor som ställs fokuserar hur frirum nyttjas och hur korstryck hanteras.  Tidigare studier visar att rektors styrning och ledning, liksom undervisningens kvalitet, behöver utvecklas. Samarbete mellan fritidshemmets och grundskolans personal sker i låg grad och kopplingen mellan lärtillfällen är svag. Denna kvalitativa studie använde Frirumsteorin som teoretisk utgångspunkt och analysverktyg. Teorin utgår från konflikten mellan formella och informella styrnings- och ledningsmekanismer. Empiriskt material inhämtades via observationer och frågeformulär. Analysen gjordes utifrån kriterierna för kontinuumet uniprofessionell – multiprofessionell inom den professionella sfären samt kontinuumet differentierad – integrerad inom den byråkratiska/administrativa sfären. Resultatet visar att frirummet begränsades av yttre händelser och ett beroende av externt stöd. Ett ökat korstryck uppstod. Kulturen i skolornas ledningsgrupper beskrivs som integrerad och mestadels multiprofessionell. Avseende Coronapandemins påverkan syns inslag av uniprofessionalism. En slutsats är att en helhetssyn är mer framgångsrik för att rektorer ska lyckas organisera för samarbete och kompletterande undervisning. Vid förändringar, torde en integrerad skolkultur präglad av multiprofessionalism vara mest gynnsam. Studien uppmärksammar styrnings- och ledningsperspektivet; rektors roll för måluppfyllelsen i fritidshemmet, samt prövar en kartläggningsmetod med tillhörande begreppsapparat, vilka är teoretiskt och vetenskapligt förankrade i Frirumsteorin. / The purpose of this thesis is to add knowledge about the headteacher´s governance and management when organizing the collaboration between Leisure-time Centre and compulsory school. Questions asked focused on how Scope for Action and conflicting pressure is met by headteachers. Previous studies show that the headteacher's governance and management, as well as the quality of teaching, need improvement. Collaboration between staff in Leisure-time Centre and the school takes place to a low degree and the connection between learning opportunities is weak. This qualitative study used the Scope for Action Theory as a theoretical starting point and analysis tool. The theory is based on the conflict between formal and informal mechanisms of governance and management. Data was gathered from observations and questionnaires. Analysis was made on basis of the criteria for the continuum uniprofessional - multiprofessional within the Professional Sphere and the continuum differentiated - integrated within the Bureaucratic/administrative sphere. The result shows that Scope for Action was limited by external events and an increase of dependence on external support. Conflicting pressure increased. The culture in the management groups is described as integrated and mostly multiprofessional. Regarding the influence of the Corona pandemic, elements of uniprofessionalism are shown. One conclusion is that a holistic approach is more successful for headteachers to succeed in organizing for collaboration and complementary teaching. In the face of change, an integrated culture characterized by multi-professionalism is likely to be most favorable. The study draws attention to the governance and management perspective; the headteacher's role for attainment of goals in Leisure-time Center as well as testing a mapping method with a conceptual framework, which is theoretically and scientifically anchored in the Scope for Action Theory.

I kollisionen mellan marknadslogik och trygghet : En studie om hur idrottsföreningar hanterar barnidrottens kommersialisering

Brindsjö, Matilda, Krutova, Alexandra January 2024 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to examine how the effects of commercialisation impact the management of sports organizations. Additionally, the study aims to investigate how sports organizations handle commercialisation to ensure a sustainable balance between the market logic and safe sports for children. Neo -institutional theory, and its various components, have been used as a theoretical lens to answer these research questions. The study was conducted using a deductive, qualitative method, and the questions for the semi-structured interviews were designed and analysed with the help of neo-institutional theory. The results and analysis show that commercialisation primarily affects the management of sports organizations through increased professionalisation. To manage commercialisation and maintain a sustainable balance between market logic and safe sports for children, sports organizations work on educating employees, coaches, and parents. They establish guidelines and ensure compliance, focusing on a proactive approach to prevent infringement. Within the organizations, there is an ongoing dialogue to integrate these guidelines into the organization. The results also highlight the importance of understanding the individual needs of athletes so that sports activities can be conducted on their terms. A long-term perspective on sports participation is also emphasised as important for sustainability.
