Att välja perspektiv : "Arkitektur i Sverige - Funktion, konstruktion och estetik genom tiderna".Håkansson, Fredrik January 2006 (has links)
This essay tries to show how The Swedish Museum of Architecture, Stockholm, with the exibition Architecture in Sweden - Function, Design and Aesthetic through the Ages, presents and represents architecture. It is stated that this is done in a multi-perspectival, multimedial fashion, with the aid of, for example, photography, models and mixed material surrounding the wide concept of ’architecture’. One chapter discusses the relationships between the exhibition on site, the exhibition catalog and the museum´s website. Another chapter argues that there can be no essential or perfect representation of architecture, although this utopian wish most certainly exists even today. A general idea is that the problems regarding architectural representation has something to do with its double position within art history as well as its multi-dimensional characteristics. In addition to this, our daily encounters with architecture is also said to contribute. Furthermore, it is argued that exhibitions understood as site-specific and temporal events, need further research.

Tid, ordning och oordning : En analys av kulturen kring matematiskt språk i en förskolekontext / Time, order and unorder : An analysis of the culture surrounding mathematical language in a preschool contextElenström, Erik January 2014 (has links)
Både från politiskt och akademiskt håll betonas betydelsen av matematiskt partikulärspråk för barnsmatematiska kunskapsutveckling. Syftet med föreliggande studie är att studera hur förskolelärare och barn konstruerar matematiska begrepp i en förskolekontext. Arbetet tar avstamp i sociokulturellt och kulturanalytisk teori. Data har konstruerat genom att jag som forskare har följt och samtala med en lärare i förskolans verksamhet. Det empiriska materialet har dokumenterats med fältanteckningar och filminspelningar, totalt omfattar filmmaterialet ca 8 timmar. Resultaten beskriver en kultur där kroppen använd likt en servo genom att förstärka kommunikationen kring matematiskt partikulärspråk. Vidare konstrueras kulturen i två skilda typer av aktiviteter, ordnade och oordnade, där den förstnämnda är olika planerade aktiviteter där lärarens vilja sätter ramarna medan den sistnämnda är aktiviteter där barns vilja styr och läraren följer. De ramar som läraren sätter upp varierar men omfattar alltid att barnen tillåts att misslyckas. Vidare konstrueras ordnade aktivitet som mer betydande än oordnade på avdelningen medan samtidigt som de konstrueras som lika betydande i förhållandet till hemmen. I kulturen konstrueras det matematiska partikulärspråket som tillhörande lärarna medan det informella matematiska språket konstrueras som tillförande barnens. Tid är en viktig del av kulturen del genom att läraren och barn använder den som ett verktyg för att få sin vilja igenom och dels för att den konstrueras som överordnad barns och lärarens viljor. Olika kulturella artefakter som är representationer av tid, som klockan, konstrueras som tillhörande lärarna och som inte tillhörande barnen. Vidare diskuteras vilka kvalitativa effekter resultaten kan få för barnens kunskapsutveckling. / Both political and academical sources emphasizes the importance of a particular language for mathematics when it comes to the mathematical knowledge of children. The purpose of the study is to study how preschool teachers and children construct mathematical concepts in a preschool context. The study takes off in sociocultural and culture analytical theory. Data have been constructed through the method of me, in the role of the researcher, talking to a preschool teacher employed at a preschool. The empirical material have been documented with field notes and movie recordings, it includes about eight hours of movie material. The result describes a culture where the body acts as a servo to strengthen the communication around the particular language of mathematics. The culture is further constructed in two separate activities, ordered and unordered, where the former is different activities where the will of the teacher sets the boundaries, whereas thelatter are activities where the will of the child leads and the teacher follows. The boundaries the teacher employs varies, but always allows the child to fail. The ordered activities are further built asof higher importance in the class, but at the same time to have equal importance at home. In the culture the particular mathematical language is built as belonging to the teachers, whereas the informal mathematical language is built as belonging to the children. Time is an important part of the culture, partly since both the teacher and the children use it as a tool to enforce their will, and partly since it's built as superior to children's and teachers wills. Different cultural artifacts as representations of time, like the clock, is built as belonging to the teachers and not belonging to the children. Further discussed is what qualitative effects the results may have for the children's knowledge

Survey of Expert Opinion on Intelligence: Causes of International Differences in Cognitive Ability TestsRindermann, Heiner, Becker, David, Coyle, Thomas R. 26 August 2016 (has links) (PDF)
Following Snyderman and Rothman (1987, 1988), we surveyed expert opinions on the current state of intelligence research. This report examines expert opinions on causes of international differences in student assessment and psychometric IQ test results. Experts were surveyed about the importance of culture, genes, education (quantity and quality), wealth, health, geography, climate, politics, modernization, sampling error, test knowledge, discrimination, test bias, and migration. The importance of these factors was evaluated for diverse countries, regions, and groups including Finland, East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, Southern Europe, the Arabian-Muslim world, Latin America, Israel, Jews in the West, Roma (gypsies), and Muslim immigrants. Education was rated by N = 71 experts as the most important cause of international ability differences. Genes were rated as the second most relevant factor but also had the highest variability in ratings. Culture, health, wealth, modernization, and politics were the next most important factors, whereas other factors such as geography, climate, test bias, and sampling error were less important. The paper concludes with a discussion of limitations of the survey (e.g., response rates and validity of expert opinions).

Previous issue date: 2008-04-24 / Often, the environment that has a behavioral function for us is the behavior of others (Glenn, 1991). This means that there is a similarity between the behavior's content of different individuals, characterizing a cultural practice (Glenn, 2004). The concepts of macrocontingência, and metacontingência characterize the contingencie's relation contained in these cultural practices and serve as "tools" to examine the culture. Considering that the before mentioned concepts are recent and that relatively few researches have employed them, the present study evaluated Malott and Glenn's (2006) proposal to classify interventions as involving either: operant contingency, macrocontingency, metacontingency or no selection of contingencies. For this evaluation, the path run by Malott and Glenn (2006) to classify the type of contingency intervention was, independently, remade for the researches classified as: operant contingencies, macrocontingencies or metacontingencies. Other articles were also classified. These articles were selected for addressing problems that involve several people. The results from this study showed that: (1) It was possible to identify the values of the criterion variables ("Number of people contributing to the product", "Variety of topographies contributing to product", "Product of interest", "Selecting consequence and Locus of change") from 16 of the 17 articles reviewed, but (2) it is necessary to consider that in analyses classified as containing relations of metacontingências, a detailed analysis for each relationship's component involved may reveal new relations, including macrocontingency. This study also showed that (3) it is not necessary to identify the five variables proposed to find the kind of contingency involved in researches / Muitas vezes, o ambiente que tem uma função comportamental para nós
é o comportamento de outras pessoas (Glenn, 1991). Isso faz com que exista
uma similaridade entre os conteúdos dos comportamentos de diferentes indivíduos, caracterizando uma prática cultural (Glenn, 2004). Os conceitos
de macrocontingência e metacontingência caracterizam as relações de contingências contidas nessas práticas culturais e servem como "ferramentas" para
analisar a cultura.
Considerando-se que os conceitos mencionados são relativamente recentes,
a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo avaliar a funcionalidade dos elementos
propostos por M. Malott e Glenn (2006) para identificar e classificar
intervenções como envolvendo: contingência operante, macrocontingência,
metacontingência ou nenhuma seleção de contingências.
Para isto, foi refeito, independentemente, os percursos por meio do qual
M. Malott e Glenn (2006) classificaram os tipos de intervenções contidas em
relatos de pesquisas como: contingências operantes, macrocontingências ou
metacontingências. Também foram classificados outros artigos, selecionados
por tratarem de problemas que envolvem diversas pessoas.
Os resultados obtidos nesta pesquisa mostraram que: (1) Foi possível
identificar os valores dessas variáveis de classificação ("Número de pessoas
contribuindo para o produto", "Variedade das topografias que contribuem
para o produto", "Produto de interesse", "Conseqüência selecionadora" e "Local
da mudança") em 16 dos 17 artigos analisados, porém (2) é necessário
considerar que em análises classificadas como contendo relações de metacontingências, ao ser analisado cada componente das relações envolvidas, é
possível encontrar novas relações, incluindo relações de macrocontingências.
A presente pesquisa também mostrou que (3) não é necessário identificar as
cinco variáveis propostas para encontrar o tipo de contingência envolvida nas
pesquisas

Translation and Adaptation of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression (CES-D) Scale Into Tigrigna Language for Tigrigna Speaking Eritrean Immigrants in the United StatesMogos, Mulubrhan Fisseha 01 January 2011 (has links)
ABSTRACT
Depression is one of the oldest known mental health conditions. It is acknowledged to be a global health problem that affects people from any culture or ethnic group. The prevalence of depression widely varied across countries and cultures. The cross-cultural relevance of the concept of depression, its screening or diagnosis, and cultural equivalence of items used to measure symptoms of depression has been area of research interest. Differences in prevalence rates in depression have been suggested as being due to research artifacts, such as use of instrument developed for one culture to another culture. With the current trend of globalization and increased rate of immigration, the need for measurement scales that can be used cross-culturally is becoming essential. Translation and adaptation of existing tools to different languages is time saving and cost effective than developing a new scale. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale [CES-D; (Radloff, 1977)] has been widely used as a screening tool for depressive symptoms in community and clinical settings. It has been widely accepted and translated to multiple languages and its measurement equivalence tested across groups. This study was designed as a mixed method study. The purpose of this study was three fold: (a) translate and adapt the CES-D scale into Tigrigna Language for use by Tigrigna speaking Eritrean immigrants in the United States using the forward backward translation and cognitive interview techniques (b) test the psychometric properties of the Tigrigna version CES-D scale using confirmatory factor analysis under the framework of structural equation modeling and (c) test measurement equivalence of the scale by comparing data collected from 253 Eritrean immigrants using the Tigrigna version CES-D scale with a secondary data collected from 1918 non Eritrean US citizens using the English version CES-D scale in a separate study. The baseline four factor CES-D scale model originally suggested for the general population fitted the data from both samples. The fit indices for the Tigrigna sample were (χ2 = 299.87, df = 164, RMSEA = .06, SRMR = .06, GFI = .89, and CFI = .98) and for the English sample (χ2 = 1496.81, df = 164, RMSEA = .07, SRMR = .04, GFI = .92, and CFI = .98). The Multi-group confirmatory factor analysis showed reasonably adequate fit (χ2 (328) = 1796.68, RMSEA= .07, SRMR = .06, GFI = .89, CFI = .98). Fourteen of the 20 CES-D items were invariant across the two samples suggesting partial metric invariance. Partial full factor invariance was also supported. In conclusion, the findings of this study provide adequate evidence in support of the applicability of the four factor CES-D scale for measuring depressive symptoms in Tigrigna speaking Eritrean immigrants/refugees in the United States.

A CONSTRUÇÃO DA BRASILIDADE: UMA ANÁLISE CULTURAL MIDIÁTICA DE BRASILIDADE NO PROGRAMA ESQUENTA.Correa, Rogério Saldanha 05 August 2016 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / This study is meant to examine the meanings constructed Brazilianness in Esquenta-TV Globo program, finding the continuities and ruptures that are presented in these forms of the Brazilian representation. The study enables up from the culture approach of cultural studies, linked to cultural materialism Williams (2003) using the support of cultural analysis proposed by Williams (1979) main analytical axis-theoretical, associated with structures of feeling, textual analysis and media cultural analysis. It lies in the Esquenta, from analysis of 24 episodes, totaling two per month, a program that is premised represent multiple Brazilian identities, but the vast majority of little programs reach this goal. The Brazilianness is represented grotesquely sometimes derided by structurally grounded representations residual traces / O presente trabalho tem por objetivo principal analisar os sentidos construídos de brasilidade no Programa Esquenta-TV Globo, encontrando as continuidades e rupturas que se apresentam nessas formas de representação do brasileiro. O trabalho traz a perspectiva dos estudos culturais, articulando o materialismo cultural e a análise cultural propostos por Williams (1979 e 2003) como eixo-teórico analítico principal, à análise textual, para realizar o que se denominou a análise cultural midiática. Verificou-se no Esquenta, a partir análise de 24 episódios, numa média de dois por mês, um programa que tem como premissa representar as múltiplas identidades brasileiras, mas que na grande maioria dos programas pouco alcança esse objetivo. A brasilidade nele é representada de maneira grotesca, por vezes ridicularizada, através de traços alicerçados em representações estruturalmente residuais da sociedade brasileira.

Previous issue date: 2013-02-19 / Este trabalho analisa o uso de métodos e recursos computacionais como ferramenta para o pesquisador na área de Comunicação, principalmente em projetos de pesquisa que lidem com problemas passíveis de serem modelados computacionalmente através de algoritmos culturais. Destacamos que não se propõe uma substituição ou redução da participação humana na análise subjetiva de conteúdos, padrões e significados em prol de uma análise mais automatizada e quantitativa.
Na estrutura deste trabalho contemplamos quatro capítulos que organizam aspectos teóricos, históricos, experiência práticas e resultados obtidos com a construção de uma visualização de uma grande coleção de dados.
No primeiro capítulo, Digitalização e a linguagem da New Media, descrevemos o processo de digitalização tanto dos meios de produção quanto dos artefatos culturais ligados a Comunicação. Apresentamos a proposta de Manovich sobre o surgimento de uma nova mídia baseada nas características do software e seus aspectos digitais, como resultado deste processo de digitalização.
No segundo capítulo, O que é visualização? Apresentamos um conjunto conceitual que define o que é a visualização, suas origens e proximidades com outras áreas como a visualização científica e aspectos teóricos, matemático e computacionais que baseiam esta linha de aplicação de métodos computacionais para analises culturais.
O terceiro capítulo, Aplicação dos Conceitos de Visualização: VEJA DataVis., relata detalhadamente o processo de coleta da coleção de dados, organização, construção do algoritmo, aplicação e resultados apresentados na visualização de dados num hyperwall.
O quarto e último capítulo, Análise de impactos da DataVis na percepção da Coleção de Dados VEJA, analisa como o processo e o resultado da aplicação da metodologia proposta por Manovich altera a percepção inicial da coleção de dados, destacando os aspectos de visualidade do contexto completo do conjunto de dados. / This paper analyzes the use of computational methods and resources as a tool for the researcher in the area of communication , particularly in research projects dealing with problems that can be modeled computationally through cultural algorithms . We emphasize that it is not proposed substitution or reduction of human involvement in the analysis of subjective content , patterns and meanings in favor of a more automated and quantitative analysis .
In the structure of this work contemplate four chapters that organize theoretical , historical, practical experience and results obtained with the construction of a visualization of a large collection of data.
In the first chapter , Scan and language of New Media , we describe the process of scanning both the means of production and of cultural artifacts linked to communication . Here is the proposed Manovich on the emergence of new media based on the characteristics of the software and its digital aspects , as a result of the scanning process.
In the second chapter , What is visualization ? We present a conceptual framework that defines what is visualization , its origins and with other nearby areas such as scientific visualization and theoretical aspects , mathematical and computational basing this line of application of computational methods for cultural analysis .
The third chapter , Application of Concepts View : . DataVis VIEW , describes the process of collecting the data collection , organization , construction of the algorithm , implementation and results presented in the visualization of data in a hyperwall detail .
The fourth and final chapter, analysis of impacts on the perception of DataVis Collection SEE data, analyzes how the process and the result of applying the methodology proposed by Manovich change the initial perception of the data collection , emphasizing the visual aspects of the full context of dataset.

Préserver et transmettre les collections de la nation : les conservateurs des musées de province sous la IIIe République / Preserving and dissemening knowledge : curatord of french provincial museums during the third republicMasson, Geraldine 05 November 2016 (has links)
La IIIe République offre une vocation didactique au musée institué en lieu d'enseignement qui édifie le citoyen républicain. Le régime fédère un réseau muséal dont l'objectif est la suppression des multiples musées de province au bénéfice des seuls musées français gardiens des collections nationales. En même temps qu'elle contribue au courant historiographique actuel de renouvellement de l'histoire des collections par l'approche de ses acteurs, cette étude des 263 conservateurs des musées de province, inspectés dans le cadre de la Commission extra-parlementaire des musées de province de 1905, aboutit à leur inscription dans le processus de professionnalisation des conservateurs de musée. Pour ses acteurs de la patrimonialisation, préserver et transmettre les collections muséales, signifie appliquer la vocation didactique du musée, lieu d'enseignement corollaire de l'école. Il s'agit notamment de dispenser, au musée, une leçon d'histoire locale se rattachant à l'écriture de l'histoire de la nation. Empreints d'une conscience patrimoniale acérée, et profondément impliqués dans les sociabilités artistiques locales, les conservateurs de musées de province œuvrent dans l'intérêt des collections se confortant à de nombreuses contraintes tant budgétaires que matérielles ou politiques. Leurs méthodes de travail, adaptées aux nouvelles exigences de l'Administration des Beaux-Arts se spécialisent à un moment où, s'élabore la science des musées dite « muséologie ». Leur expérience est alors reconnue par l'ensemble des conservateurs des musées de province et des Musées nationaux. Le conservateur des musées de province républicains est un conservateur de musée professionnel. / The Third Republic enabled French museums to become a place of cultural education similar to that of schools. A national, federated network of museums was established for national collections of art in the early 20th Century, during the rise of provincial museums. The French state sought to display a self-legitimizing, civic-mindedness and to teach lessons of history of the Nation and national heritage to its citizens. More than an institutional history of the rise of provincial museums, this study demonstrates the involvement of the curators of provincial museums in the development of that policy and shows how it led to the creation of an organized profession. Utilizing the report of the parliamentary commission for French museums created in 1905, 263 curators in charge of state sponsored long-term loans were identified and studied. Involved in the safeguarding of patrimony, they belonged to numerous provincial academies and local scholarly societies. At the museum, they provided a local history lesson related to French national history. They had to cope with locally specific issues, particularly financial restrictions and local politics, but succeeded in fashioning a new way of working that was agreed to by ail colleagues in provincial institutions as well as French national museums, such as the musée du Louvre, when museology was created.

Living feminism and leaving Catholicism in Victoria, BC since the 1960sGreenup, Erica 22 September 2021 (has links)
Since the 1960s, religious adherence in Canada has declined with ‘no religion’ slowly taking its place. Although British Columbia has been less religious than the rest of Canada since its early settler days, the currents of postwar secularization can still be assessed. In this thesis, I look at secularization on a denominational, regional, and gender specific scale. Through the oral testimonies of eleven women who were raised Catholic in Victoria, and who left Catholicism in the ‘long sixties,’ I discuss the way the Catholic Sisters of St Ann modeled autonomy for these women in how they were educated within the Catholic church and I investigate how cultural and societal discourse regarding women’s liberation, autonomy and individualism impacted their departure. In leaving the Catholic church, these women joined the ranks of the rising ‘religious nones’ in this region, however their departure from organized religion did not always mean a rejection of belief in a higher power or spirituality, with the majority retaining some form of spirituality throughout their lives. Despite this, their departure from institutional religion and lack of religious socialization for their children influenced the subsequent irreligiosity of their children and grandchildren. I argue that these women engaged with the calls for women’s autonomy in the long sixties, and in their actions influenced intergenerational secularization. / Graduate / 2022-09-10
