Master of Science / Department of Animal Science and Industry / R. L. Weaber / This thesis includes two studies that assessed the relationships between docility and reproduction in Angus heifers, both from a phenotypic and genetic standpoint. The objective of the first study was to elucidate the phenotypic relationships between docility and first service AI conception rate in heifers. Data (n = 337) included exit velocity (EV), chute score (CS), fecal cortisol (FC), and blood serum cortisol (BC). Statistical analysis was done using logistic regression with 30 day pregnancy rate as the dependent variable. The model included the fixed effect of contemporary group, and the covariates FC, BC, EV, CS, weight, and age. Correlation coefficients were also calculated between all continuous traits. The power of our test could not detect any significant predictors of 30 d pregnancy for the combined data from all ranches. The objective of the second study was to determine the genetic control of docility and reproduction in heifers as measured by pregnancy rate. A subjective chute scoring system was used as the basis of their genetic evaluation for docility. Pedigree information was obtained on approximately 508,015 animals over 30 generations. Data included approximately 26,878 records on heifer pregnancy and 113,412 records on docility, with 7,849 animals having both docility and heifer pregnancy records. Contemporary groups were formed by the concatenation of weaning contemporary group, yearling contemporary group, and breeding contemporary group. Heritabilities were calculated from estimates of genetic and residual variance components computed using ASReml 3.0 (VSN International; Hemel Hempstead, UK). Heifer pregnancy variance components were estimated from a univariate, threshold model, with pregnancy outcome as the dependent variable. Animal and contemporary group were fit as a random effects, while age at first breeding was fit as a covariate. The heritability of heifer pregnancy was estimated to be 0.16 ± 0.02. Docility was fit as a univariate, linear animal model with docility score as the dependent variable. Animal and contemporary group were both modeled as random effects. The heritability for docility score was estimated to be 0.22 ± 0.03. Fertility is a complex trait that is dependent on many factors; our data suggest that docility is one factor that warrants further investigation.

Title: Measurement of movement creativity of pupils aged 10 - 12 years Objectives: The aim of the work was to verify the impact of extra-curricular movement activities on movement creativity of the pupils 10 - 12 old. By means of survey questionnaire we will acquire the information how many responders pursue movement activities and what kind of these activities. For the purpose of this work the basic schools in Prague and Mladá Boleslav will be addressed, research will be done with the pupils of 4th - 6th class. P.E. teachers with the pupils will fill in anonymous personal questionnaires with the chosen group and consequently a standardized Iowa-Brace test of docility and non-standardized test of movement creativity will be done with them. Method: The results will be acquired by the methods of qualitative and quantitative research. Non- standardized questionnaire, standardized Iowa-Brace test and non-standardized test of movement creativity will be used. The results will be worked out by Microsoft Excel computer program. Results: The found out results proved that the responders who go in for gymnastic sports achieved the best assessments in the tested group. In the order of popularity the dancing activities and games take the leading positions, on the contrary we found a little interest in...

Title: Analysis of the relationship motor docility, emotional stability and reactibility. Aim : The objective was to gain insight into the theoretical knowledge of motor docility. Try to analyze the correlation between the motor docility, reactibility and emotional stability of students of physical education UJEP. Methods: The level of motor docility was measured by IOWA BRACE test, the shift in learning new motor skills in selected sports during the semester and expert assessment. Reactibility was through disjunctive test reaction times observed temporal variability of response times. Emotional stability was diagnosed with neuroticism dimension in the EPQ-R. Results: The sample had the expected characteristics due to the emotional stability. It was proved relation between values of neuroticism and temporal variability in reaction time test reactibility. Partly succeeded confirm the relationship between motor docility (test progression in learning new motor skills) and temporal variability of response times. The relationship between the level of motor docility and emotional stability was not demonstrated. Keywords: motor docility, neuroticism, EPQ-R, IOWA BRACE.

L'analyse des différents commentaires de "Was ist Aufklärung ?" par Michel Foucault permet de retracer l'émergence d'une conception d'un courage des gouvernés, entre désobéissance et désassujettissement. Un courage dénué de tout psychologisme, mais qui s'affirmerait comme une attitude, une reformulation du rapport que chacun entretient avec soi-même ; un courage qui ne serait plus pensé sur le mode d'une conquête de l'autonomie, confiné aux espaces aménagés de l'obéissance ; un courage enfin qui ne serait pas une vertu de l'occasion, mais une élaboration quotidienne et patiente de soi par soi. Notre premier pas sur la voie du courage consisterait alors en un travail de déprise de soi, et de refus de l'emprise du pouvoir sur la conduite de nos existences. Or, au cœur des problématiques de gouvernement, la vérité apparaît comme le vecteur essentiel du pouvoir. Les procès de Socrate et de Galilée, ainsi que les mythes qui les entourent, laissent entrevoir la manière dont le vrai s'est progressivement imposé comme source unique de l'autorité grâce au platonisme tout d'abord, puis par l'intermédiaire du christianisme. La vérité s'est ainsi vue augmentée d'une dimension nouvelle, « kratogénétique », qui désigne la capacité d'un énoncé à produire des effets de pouvoir dans une configuration stratégique donnée. L'étude des procès de Nuremberg et celui d'Eichmann mettent en lumière l'insuffisance des traditions héroïques, hoplitiques et chrétiennes du courage à produire un appareil conceptuel qui permettrait au sujet de s'affirmer face au pouvoir de sujétion de la vérité et à la démultiplication et la diversification des régimes d'obéissance. L'urgence de notre modernité est de s'extirper du cauchemar de la docilité. C'est pourquoi nous avons dans un dernier temps choisi de faire dialoguer Hannah Arendt et Michel Foucault, à partir de leur relecture critique des concepts machiavéliens tout d'abord, puis en comparant la manière dont ils ont l'un et l'autre ont opéré un retour à l'Antiquité, et à la figure tutélaire de Socrate en particulier : revenir au sujet préchrétien afin de penser un courage sans référence à aucune transcendance, comme fidélité à soi-même et à la manifestation en soi-même de la pluralité humaine, ou comme technique de soi et stylistique de l'existence. / Studying Michel Foucault's commentaries on Kant's "Was ist Aufklärung?" allows to witness the emerging conception of a courage specific to the governed, between disobedience and de-subjection. A courage barren of any psychology, but conceived as an attitude, i.e. a reflection of someone's relationship to its self ; a courage that can't be summed-up as a conquest of autonomy, confined to cautiously designed spaces of obedience ; a courage that isn't an occasional virtue, but a daily routine of exercises by yourself and on yourself. Thus, our first step on the path to courage would translate to an abandonment of our former self, and a refusal of the power's grip on our very existences. Then, at the heart of governing techniques, truth appears as power's essential conduit. Socrates' and Galileo's trials, as well as the myths surrounding them, unveil the way truth progressively became the unique source of authority ; thanks to Platonism at first, then through Christianity. Truth gained a new dimension in the process, which we call "kratogenetic" as it points to the capacity of any proposition to generate effects of power in any given strategic configuration. Our study of the Nuremberg and Eichmann's trials exposes the inability of the heroic, hoplitic and Christian traditions of courage to produce a set of concepts that could allow the subject to assert itself in the face of the subjecting power of truth, and the multiplication and diversification of obedience regimes. The emergency of our time is to extricate ourselves from the nightmare of docility. That is why we have decided at last to initiate a dialog between Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault, from their critical reworking of Machiavelli's concepts at first, then comparing the way they each got back to the Antiquity in general, and to Socrates as a father-figure in particular : a way to get back to a pre-Christianity subject, in order to conceive a courage without any reference to any transcendence ; a courage conceived either as a loyalty to ourselves and to the manifestation within ourselves of mankind's plurality, or as a technique of the self and a stylization of our existence.

Punitive gynaecology is a set of healthcare-related attitudes and practices that aim to take control of a woman's body, sexuality and reproductive system in order to produce a reformed body. This thesis scrutinizes thephenomenonofpunitivegynaecology in modernRussia.Narrativeinquirywas conducted to provide an understanding of the ways punitive gynaecology works on the female body, restructures it and inscribes meanings. Autobiographical narratives are analysed and located within a wider socio- political context to concretize the dimensions of punitive practices in gynaecology. The main foci of analysis are the medical gaze, the spatial organization of the gynaecological clinic, pastoral power and agency in the gynaecological examination, the sexuality of the examination, the contingencies of shame, pain and embarrassment. The research uses a Foucauldian framework to uncover power relations permeating the doctor-patient interaction in the gynaecological examination. This thesis thus offers a reflectiononthepreferredmodes ofembodiment anddocilitythat punitivegynaecology attempts toinstil in its' subject. Keywords: punitive gynaecology, discipline, power, gaze, agency, body, hegemonic femininity, clinic, doctor-patient interaction, docility

O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a estrutura populacional, estimar parâmetros (coeficientes de herdabilidade e correlações) e determinar as tendências genéticas e fenotípicas de características de crescimento e adaptação em bovinos da raça Nelore, linhagem Lemgruber. O banco de dados utilizado nas análises constituiu-se de 39.290 animais no arquivo de pedigree e de 24.353 animais no arquivo de produção. Os parâmetros populacionais foram obtidos por meio dos softwares POPREP (GROENEVELD et al., 2009) e ENDOG v 3.2 (GUTIÉRREZ e GOYACHE, 2005). As estatísticas descritivas e os parâmetros genéticos para cada característica estudada foram estimadas por meio de quatro análises hepta-característica utilizando o programa VCE-6 (KOVAC & GROENEVELD, 2003) sob modelo animal completo. As tendências genéticas e fenotípicas foram obtidas pela regressão dos valores genéticos e fenotípicos respectivamente sobre o ano de nascimento dos animais e os coeficientes da regressão foram estimados por meio do método de quadrados mínimos. Apesar da endogamia média do rebanho ser considerada moderada verificou-se alta porcentagem de indivíduos endogâmicos e reduzido tamanho efetivo populacional. Além disso, o incremento contínuo de endogamia ao longo dos anos demonstra a necessidade de intervenção na seleção dos indivíduos para reprodução, de modo que, problemas futuros possam ser evitados. Os coeficientes de herdabilidade direta foram estimados em 0,24, 0,31, 0,31, 0,21, 0,19, 0,30, 0,41, 0,19 e 0,17 respectivamente para peso ao nascimento (PN), peso aos 120 dias de idade (P120), peso à desmama (PD), peso ao ano (PES12), ganho de peso pós desmama, de 205 aos 550 dias (GP345), ganho de peso na prova à pasto da ABCZ, em 224 dias (GP224), perímetro escrotal (PE), temperamento (TEMP), e repelência (REP) e indicam que a variabilidade genética aditiva existente é suficiente para a obtenção do ganho genético em resposta à seleção desde que sejam realizados ajustes, tanto nas estratégias de seleção adotadas para a obtenção de maiores ganhos nos valores genéticos, como também nos fatores ambientais que possam possibilitar ao máximo, a expressão do potencial genético dos animais. / The present study had as objective to evaluate the population structure, to estimate parameters (coefficients of heritability and correlation) and to determine the phenotypic and genetic trends for growth and adaptability traits in Nellore cattle, Lemgruber line. The database used in the analysis consisted of 39,290 animals in the pedigree and 24,353 animals in the production file. The population parameters were obtained from the software POPREP (Groeneveld et al., 2009) and ENDOG v 3.2 (Gutierrez and GOYACHE, 2005). The descriptive statistics and genetic parameters for each characteristic studied were estimated by four seven-traits analysis using the program VCE-6 (Kovac & GROENEVELD, 2003) which uses the animal model. The phenotypic and genetic trends were obtained by means of phenotypic and genetic values respectively on the year of birth of the animals and the regression coefficients were estimated by the method of least squares. Although the average inbreeding of the herd being considered moderate, there was high percentage of inbred individuals and small effective population size. Furthermore, the continuous increase in inbreeding over the years demonstrates the need for intervention in the selection of individuals for reproduction, so that future problems can be avoided. Direct heritability coefficients were estimated as 0.24, 0.31, 0.31, 0.21, 0.19, 0.30, 0.41, 0.19 and 0.17 respectively for birth weight (PN), weight 120 days of age (P120), weaning weight (PD), weight at 12 months of age (PES12), weight gain after weaning from 205 to 550 days (GP345), weight gain during the pasture test of ABCZ in 224 days (GP224), scrotal circumference (PE), docility (TEMP) and repellency (REP) and indicate that the additive genetic variability is sufficient to obtain genetic gain in response to selection as far as adjustments in selection strategies are adopted to achieve larger gains in breeding values, and environmental factors that may allow the expression of the genetic potential of the animals.

It is in this line that this research has the purpose of analyze aspects of environmental docility in social use of public spaces for the coexistence of the elderly in an institution in the city of Manaus-AM. This multi-method approach research used the techniques of systematic and participative observation, as well as the application of semistructured questionnaires. Twenty elderly (16F; 4M), considered members of the Programa Idoso Feliz participa Sempre ( Happy Elderly Always Participates program) - PIFPS of the Federal University of amazonas- UFAM / AM. The results showed that for these elderly people, the policies laws have strengthened their rights, but they still prejudice of other segments of society. For these elderly people, such laws ignore aspects of facilitating mobility and accessibility to the elderly. In this way the programs are often inaccessible by facing the city. Another limiting factor of their participation is the fragility of health that finds little support from health care agencies. The elderly once they have overcome such obstacles that limit their participation, it’s normal that they have fewer environmental pressures. In this space the elderly finds possibilities for restoring their emotions and physics. In addition, the living space offers a welcoming physical environment whose affordances promote aspects of psychosocial well-being, even when it is considered minor feature to the program. It is in this environment that it is limited in its specific functions of care for the elderly that environmental docility reveals itself and promotes the building of skills and abilities for healthy aging. / As contribuições da docilidade ambiental trouxeram novas perspectivas para os estudo do bem-estar e qualidade de vida entre os idosos. É nesta linha que esta pesquisa está direcionada, a qual teve como objetivo analisar aspectos de docilidade ambiental no uso social de espaços públicos de convivência de idosos em uma instituição na cidade de Manaus-AM. Essa pesquisa de abordagem multimétodos utilizou as técnicas de observação sistemática e participativa, além da aplicação de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Participaram do estudo 20 idosos considerados membros efetivos do Programa Idoso Feliz Participa Sempre PIFPS- U3IA-FEFF da Universidade Federal do Amazonas- UFAM/AM. Os resultados mostraram que para esses idosos, as políticas públicas e leis vieram fortalecer seus direitos, porém ainda enfrentam diariamente o preconceito de outros segmentos da sociedade. Para esses idosos tais leis ignoram aspectos de facilitação da mobilidade e acessibilidade ao idoso. Dessa forma os programas a eles destinados, muitas vezes são inacessíveis pelas dificuldades enfrentadas no deslocamento pela cidade. Outro fator limitante de sua participação cidadã é a fragilidade da saúde que encontra pouco respaldo das agências de cuidado ao idoso. Uma vez vencidos tais entraves que limitam sua participação, o idoso encontra no programa de convivência compensações das pressões ambientais. Nesse espaço de convivência o idoso encontra possibilidades de restauro das emoções e das dificuldades físicas. Além disso, o espaço de convivência oferece um ambiente físico acolhedor cujas affordances promovem aspectos de bem-estar psicossocial, mesmo que não este seja visto como aspecto secundário no programa. É nesse ambiente, mesmo que limitado em suas funções específicas de atendimento ao idoso, que a docilidade ambiental se revela e promove a construção de competências e habilidades para um envelhecimento saudável. / Meu trabalho é ligado aos Processos psicossociais, na linha de Psicologia Ambiental.
