Att ha diagnosen Aspergers syndrom innebär bl a sociala problem och psykisk sårbarhet. Denna kvalitativa studie omfattar intervjuer med fyra  psykoterapeuter och en psykolog, som har erfarenhet av att behandla personer med Aspergers syndrom. Syftet med studien är att undersöka psykoterapeuters syn på psykodynamisk psykoterapi med personer med Asperger syndrom. Frågeställningarna har varit: hur lägger man upp en terapeutisk behandling för personer med Aspergers syndrom? Vilka aspekter inom terapin med personer med Aspergers syndrom är viktiga för behandlingen?  Studien visar att teraputerna arbetar utifrån olika psykodynamiska teorier. Terapeuten behöver också ha stora kunskaper om funktionshindret. Att terapeuten har kunskap om vilka effekter funktionshindret har på personer med Asperger syndrom medför att viktiga komponenter som bemötande och arbetsallians möjliggörs och som är grunden för ett fortsatt behandlingsarbete. Vidare anses det viktigt att ta hänsyn till den specifika livssituation och historia som personer med Aspergers syndrom har, eftersom tidigare erfarenheter har betydelse för hur patienten handlar, reagerar och förstår sina livsmönster i nuet. Samtliga terapeuter betonar att personer med Aspergers syndrom i behandlingen har förbättrat sitt sociala samspel. Dessutom tycks det som att det fordras mycket av terapeuten i behandlingen med denna målgrupp eftersom det är långa behandlingar och att det är känslomässigt påfrestande att arbeta med personer med Aspergers. / To be diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome involves among other social problems and psychological vulnerability. The sample consists of four psychotherapists and one psychologist, who have experience in treating people with Asperger syndrome. The purpose of this study is to investigate the psychotherapists’ view of psychodynamic psychotherapy with people with Asperger syndrome. Questions have been; How do you set up a therapeutic treatment for people with Asperger's syndrome? What aspects in therapy with people with Asperger syndrome are important to the treatment? The study shows that therapists work from various psychodynamic theories. The therapist must also have vast knowledge of the disability. The therapist’s knowledge of the effects disability has on people with Asperger syndrome causes the key components that touch and working alliance is made possible and is the basis for continuing treatment work. Furthermore, it is important to take into account the specific situation in life and history that people with Asperger syndrome have, because past experience is relevant to how the patient react and understand their patterns of life in the present. All therapists stress that people with Asperger syndrome in treatment have improved their social interaction. Moreover, it seems that it requires a lot of the therapist in the treatment with this audience, because it is long treatments and that it is emotionally stressful to work with people with Asperger's

SUMMARY of Rasa Matusienė Master‘s thesis ‘The Particularities of Social Interaction Obstacles (Conflict, Stress, Expression of Ego States) When Working as a Sport Manager‘ Keywords: social interaction, conflict, stress, Ego states, sport manager. Object of research: particularities of social interaction obstacles (conflict, stress, expression of Ego states) when working as a sport manager. Problem (research) question: How age, professional experience of the sport managers and number of subordinates influence the expression of social interaction obstacles? Hypotheses: 1. The choice of conflict solution strategies largely depends on the age of sport managers: younger sport managers (in comparison with average age of those investigated) more often choose cooperation strategy, whereas older sport managers more often tend to choose compromise strategy. 2. The age of sport managers, professional experience, the number of subordinates and the size of organization has no considerable influence on sport manager‘s inclination to stress. 3. Professional experience has a great deal of influence on the expression of Ego states: Adult Ego state expression is more characteristic to the sport managers with less work experience (in comparison with the average work experience of those investigated), whereas the expression of the Patronizing Father Ego state appears to be considerably stronger among the managers with more professional experience. Aim of research is to disclose the... [to full text]

L'œuvre de Descartes est une œuvre de pensée, qu'il a voulue et qu'il a bâtie avec méthode, rigueur et constance tout au long de sa vie. À travers cette œuvre, ce n'est pas tant la vérité des choses que l'on découvre, que la manière dont on peut construire sa pensée et son propre système de certitudes. Et la manière que nous propose Descartes et qu'il a lui-même mise en œuvre repose sur le souci de la cohérence. Penser avec vérité le monde est alors le moyen le plus sûr de penser de manière cohérente. L'étude a pour objet de mettre en lumière les règles qui constituent, de fait, ce que l'on peut appeler la maxime cartésienne de la pensée. Pour ce faire, on commence par décrire ce qu'est, pour Descartes, d'une part la pensée, et d'autre part ce monde qu'il s'agit justement de penser. On est ainsi conduit à examiner et à critiquer en particulier la place que tient l'existence de Dieu dans le dispositif cartésien qui vise à garantir la cohérence de sa propre pensée. Malgré l'application qu'il fit de sa maxime, Descartes n'évita pourtant pas une erreur qui allait fragiliser son système de certitudes : il s'agit de sa conception de la matière comme pure étendue. Le "roman de la nature" qu'il imagina alors sur cette base erronée a beau être très cohérent, il ne représente malheureusement pas la réalité du monde. C'est en introduisant l'intersubjectivité dans l'éthique de la pensée, c'est-à-dire en acceptant de frotter son propre système de certitudes à celui d'un Autre, dont on reconnaît l'existence et la valeur, que l'on peut sans doute éviter ce type de dérive. On constate alors que l'idée de l'Homme, qui est à la fois l'ego cartésien et cet Autre, remplace avec profit l'idée de Dieu dans la perspective d'une garantie de la vérité.

The academic study of comic books - especially superhero comic books - has predominantly focused on the analysis of these books as texts, as teaching and learning resources, or on children as comic book readers. Very little has been written about adult superhero comic fans and their responses to superhero comics. This thesis explores how adult comic book readers in New Zealand engage with superhero comics. Individual interviews and group conversations, both online and face-to-face, provide insights into their responses to the comics and the characters as well as the relationships among fans. Analysis of fans’ talk about superhero comics includes their reflections on how masculinities are represented in these comics and the complex ways in which they identify with superheroes, including their alter egos. The thesis examines how superhero comic book readers present themselves in their interactions with other readers. Comics ‘geekdom’, fans’ interactions with one another and their negotiation of gendered norms of masculinity are discussed. The contrast between the fan body and the superhero body is an important theme. Readers’ discursive constitution and management of superheroes’ bodies, and their engagement with representations of superheroes are related to analyses of multiplicity in individual identities and current theories of audience reception and identification.

Förmågan till effektiv självreglering är väsentlig för personers självpresentation. Enligt teorin om "ego depletion" är självreglering en begränsad resurs vilken tillfälligt försämras om den överanvänds. I en förhörssituation kan detta bli problematiskt eftersom en självuttömd självpresentation kan bidra till minskad trovärdighet och ökad mottaglighet för ledande frågor. Detta kan förstärkas om vittnesmålet dessutom erläggs på ett annat språk än modersmålet. Syftet med studien var att undersöka om annat vittnesspråk än modersmål påverkar trovärdighet och erhållandet av ledande frågor. I ett experiment fick 60 personer uppskatta trovärdighet och formulera frågor till svenska respektive engelska vittnesmål. Därefter fick 12 oberoende personer skatta frågornas suggestibilitet. Resultatet visade att engelska vittnesmål (andraspråk) tenderade erhålla lägre trovärdighetsskattningar vilket kan bero på uttömd självreglering och misslyckade självpresentationer. Detta antyder att språk har inverkan på trovärdighet. Trots detta uppvisades ingen skillnad i andel ledande frågor beroende på språk. Framtida studier uppmanas testa effekten av "ego depletion" i autentiska förhörssituationer.

[pt] Esta pesquisa de mestrado foi desenvolvida tendo como principal objetivo compreender o lugar do corpo e das experiências sensoriais no processo de constituição subjetiva à luz dos conceitos de Eu-pele e corpo próprio em Anzieu e Merleau-Ponty, respectivamente. A nossa investigação mostra que, segundo os autores, o Eu é constituído a partir da experiência sensível e que é tarefa do corpo organizar os dados sensoriais, dando sentido às experiências subjetivas. Além disso, o presente trabalho busca evidenciar o aspecto relacional do processo de subjetivação, presente nos dois autores. Este estudo deixa claro que a dimensão da corporeidade, a qual é fundamental para o desenvolvimento psíquico, emocional e cognitivo, pressupõe, sobretudo, a presença do outro. Conclui-se, assim, que tanto Anzieu quanto Merleau-Ponty explicam a psicogênese pela ótica da intersubjetividade, a qual é marcada pela experiência sensível, compartilhada em um espaço intercorporal e interpessoal, um mundo comum de onde podem emergir as subjetividades. / [en] We developed this research aiming to understand the role of the body and the sensitive experiences in the constitution of subjectivity, based on the concepts of Skin ego and own body in Anzieu and Merleau-Ponty, respectively. By analyzing the essencial aspects of both theories it is possible to understand, firstly, that the ego derives from our sensitive experiences and, secondly, that the body not only organizes the sensory data, but also provides meaning to our experiences. In addition, we highlight the relational aspect of the subjectivation process, once both authors pointed out to the fact that corporeity, which is fundamental to psychological, emotional and cognitive development, presupposes another underlying factor: the experience of the Other. Therefore, we gather that both Anzieu and Merleau-Ponty explain psychogenesis from the perspective of intersubjectivity, which is marked by our sensitive experience, shared in an intercorporal and interpersonal space, a common world from where subjectivities can emerge.

In each of these summaries, the meanings of the content are reseached. Ten articulated the areas were chosen:sickness, pulsion, life/death, pain/suffering, loss/mourning, symptom, trauma, narcisism, compulsion to repetition, body, being emphasized the following areas: sickness, pulsion, symptom and body.The reseach points out the relation between the psychological sickness and the opression of the lust,reflecting the existance of the mecanism of sickness and the formation of the symptom.The process of sickness involves a lack of sexual desire, and also a misfunction in the living of the pulsions of life and death, and this fragmentation leads to partial pulsions. The destinies of the pulsions suggest a connection with the psychological sickness,causing pathological manifestations like traumatic neurosis,compulsion to repetition,force of resistences,neurotic contents and their state of morbid suffering. / Ao tomar referência à abordagem psicanalítica, esta pesquisa se propõe a uma revisão bibliográfica sobre Os Sentidos do Adoecer: refazendo o percurso freudiano, escolhendo como objetivos investigar os sentidos, os mecanismos e as manifestações envolvidas no âmbito do adoecer psíquico. A metodologia baseia-se numa pesquisa qualitativa feita através de uma análise de conteúdo de um total de 75 resumos selecionados. Buscam-se, em cada resumo, os significados de conteúdo; escolhem-se dez áreas temáticas articuladas: Adoecer, Pulsão, Vida/Morte, Dor/Sofrimento, Perdas/Luto, Sintoma, Trauma, Narcisismo, Compulsão à repetição, Corpo, priorizando-se quatro dessas áreas que apresentam uma ligação maior com o estudo, quais sejam: Adoecer, Pulsão, Sintoma e Corpo. A pesquisa aponta a relação do adoecer psíquico com o “represamento da libido”, refletindo a existência do mecanismo de adoecimento e da formação do sintoma. O processo de adoecimento envolve uma dessexualização das funções egóicas (as de autopreservação e as pulsões libidinais), além de ocorrer também uma vivência desfusional das pulsões de vida e de morte, tendo as pulsões parciais como conseqüências dessa fragmentação. Os destinos das pulsões sugerem uma ligação com o adoecimento psíquico, provocando manifestações patológicas como as neuroses traumáticas, os fenômenos da compulsão à repetição, a força das resistências, a presença dos conteúdos neuróticos e seus estados mórbidos de sofrimento.

Language barriers in eyewitness testimonies may pose threats toward witnesses’ accuracy, and consequently on the outcome of judicial procedures. The present study aims to investigate the credibility and the extent of reported detail information of eyewitnesses’ testimony of a crime event, when the testimony is given in witnesses’ first language, second language, or second language through interpreter. Moreover, the study examines whether eyewitness suggestibility is affected by the language to which the testimony is provided. Participants (N=60) were exposed to a mock crime event and subsequently performed memory tests about that event. Results showed no differences in accuracy of suggestibility between experimental conditions. The personality trait social desirability showed no relation to suggestibility or the extent of inaccurate detail information provided in the present study. The findings are discussed in the context of implications, limitations and future directions.

Realizou-se um estudo qualitativo utilizando a técnica de depoimentos pessoais. Foram entrevistadas mulheres que estavam grávidas quando se souberam soropositivas e mulheres que se sabendo soropositivas não quiseram ter ou optaram por ter um filho, totalizando 12 entrevistas. Foi feita análise temática do conteúdo a partir da transcrição das entrevistas. Os resultados mostram que as mulheres entendiam a maternidade como um atributo essencial da mulher. É a razão que mantém o desejo de viver, representando a continuidade da vida para além da morte. A percepção delas de que a maternidade é um direito da mulher legitimava seus sentimentos de quererem ser mães. As mulheres grávidas e as que planejaram filhos após o diagnóstico, temiam transmitir o HIV para o bebê. Esse mesmo temor foi determinante na decisão das mulheres que não quiseram filhos após o diagnóstico. Amamentar foi sentido como componente fundamental da função materna; não fazê-lo gerou sentimentos de culpa. Foi observado despreparo em relação a lidarem com as conseqüências físicas e emocionais da proibição da amamentação. Quanto à orfandade, o sentimento depressivo de abandono dos filhos mobilizava, nas entrevistadas, sentimentos de culpa e impotência, suscitando sofrimento. Para minimizar esse sofrimento, elas recorriam a alguns mecanismos de defesa, como os de compensação, projeção, racionalização e negação. Muitas das soropositivas estudadas referiram dificuldade em planejar e tomar providências quanto aos cuidados dos filhos para situações de doença ou óbito da mãe. Elas sentiam-se culpadas e não queriam pensar no assunto. Entendiam que se preocupar com a doença e a morte era dar chance para que essas coisas acontecessem mais depressa. Nos casos em que uma gravidez foi planejada após o diagnóstico, era mais freqüente que o planejamento incluísse o cuidado e o amparo do filho, que era negociado com a família. Observou-se que a relação com a família pode ser uma importante fonte de apoio ou de estresse. Conclui-se que a atenção às conseqüências do HIV na vida de mulheres soropositivas necessita ser revista porque embora a doença possa ser controlada seguindo-se indicações médicas específicas, isto não é suficiente para garantir tranqüilidade nem segurança emocional às mulheres afetadas. É necessário também melhorar o acesso à assistência ao puerpério a fim de orientar as mulheres em relação à sua saúde física e emocional, bem como à de seus bebês neste período de adaptação à maternidade, nas condições de desvantagem que representa a soropositividade da mãe. Isto inclui a necessidade de se estenderem as orientações relativas ao HIV/Aids também aos familiares das mulheres / Abstract: This dissertation, composed of two articles, seeks to disclose the feelings of HIV-positive women associated to motherhood and orphanhood and identify the course of action planned or taken by them regarding the care of their children in case of maternal illness or death caused by Aids. A qualitative study was carried out using the technique of personal testimonies. The interviewees were women who were pregnant when informed that they were HIV positive and women who, knowing that they were HIV positive did not want to have a child or decided to have one. A total of 12 women were interviewed. A thematic content analysis was carried out through the interviews transcription. The results show that the women understood the motherhood as an essential attribute of women, perceived as the reason that maintains the desire to live, representing continuity of life beyond death. Their perception of motherhood as a woman¿s right made legitimate their desire to become mothers. The pregnant women and those who planned on having children after being diagnosed HIV positive were afraid of transmitting the virus to the baby. This same fear determined the decision of the women who did not want to have children once they hear the diagnosis. Breastfeeding was felt as a fundamental component of the maternal role and not being able to breastfeed caused guilt feelings. A lack of preparation was observed with regard to dealing with the physical and emotional consequences of being urged not to breastfeed. The potential orphanhood of their children gave rise to a depressive sensation having abandoned them, mobilizing feelings of impotence and guilt, which led to distress. In order to minimize such feelings they resorted to defense mechanisms like compensation, projection, rationalization and denial. Many of the HIV positive women had difficulty in planning and taking steps regarding the care of their children in case of maternal illness or death. They felt guilty and did not want to even think about this issue. They understood that worrying about the disease and death was the same as giving the opportunity for these things to happen sooner. When a pregnancy was planned after they were informed of the diagnosis, planning would include the care and support of the child, which was negotiated with the family. It was observed that family relationships may be an important source of support or stress. Concluded that the the attention to HIV consequences in the lives of seropositives women must be reviewed, because, althought the disease can be controlled by following specific medical recommendations, this is not sufficient to guarantee either tranquility or emotional balance to the women affected. They require continuous support to guide them regarding their own physical and emotional health as well as that of their children, in the situation of disadvantage represented by the mother being HIV positive. It includes the need to extend the information on HIV/Aids to the members of the women¿s families / Doutorado / Ciencias Biomedicas / Doutor em Tocoginecologia

This work does not represent a radical change from part of the philosopher as portraying the commentators, but the apex of idealistic conception of science transcendental. The term idealism accumulates meanings expressed in many different currents of modern philosophy, which are all suspended by reducing philosophical in favor of a transcendental idealism inaugurate responsible for the problem of contemporary philosophy. The focus of the research is to think about the relevance of this idealism through the conceptual framework that surrounds the work cited. Among the topics investigated are the essences of intuition as intuition semantics of the transcendental experience. The intent as entrelaçamento needed between subjectivity and objectivity, which represents the overcoming of any dichotomy. What I like pure subjectivity and dissolution of the opening of the semantic field of possibility. And the formation of transcendental spheres of the world under the transcendental pure possibility of sense. These concepts show the importance of understanding the phenomenology as transcendental idealism. A phenomenological science there is as transcendental idealism or semantic, incorporating the issues ontológicas through descriptive analysis of the essences of donor direction to the plane factual / O objetivo da dissertação é refletir acerca dos conceitos que validam a fundamentação do idealismo transcendental de Husserl na obra Idéias para uma fenomenologia pura e filosofia fenomenológica. Tal obra não representa uma mudança radical de vertente do filósofo como retratam os comentadores, mas o ápice da concepção idealista da ciência transcendental. O termo idealismo acumula muitas significações expressas nas diferentes correntes da filosofia moderna, as quais são todas suspensas através da redução filosófica em favor de um idealismo transcendental responsável por inaugurar a problemática da filosofia contemporânea. O enfoque da pesquisa é pensar sobre a relevância deste idealismo através do arcabouço conceitual que circunda a obra citada. Dentre os temas investigados estão a intuição de essências como intuição semântica da experiência transcendental. A intencionalidade como entrelaçamento necessário entre subjetividade e objetividade, que representa a superação de qualquer dicotomia. O eu puro como dissolução da subjetividade e abertura do campo semântico de possibilidade. E a constituição transcendental das esferas do mundo no âmbito transcendental da pura possibilidade de sentido. Estes conceitos revelam a importância de compreender a fenomenologia como idealismo transcendental. A ciência fenomenológica se instaura como idealismo transcendental ou semântico que retoma as questões ontológicas através da análise descritiva das essências doadoras de sentido ao plano factual
