Apesar de singular e indivisível, a imagem corporal integra múltiplas dimensões, sendo vulnerável a processos dinâmicos internos e externos, estando em constante transformação. A insatisfação corporal está ligada à baixa autoestima e limitações no desempenho psicossocial, associando-se a quadros depressivos, além de estar relacionada aos distúrbios de comportamento alimentar como anorexia, bulimia e comer compulsivo. O objetivo do presente estudo foi determinar os fatores associados à insatisfação corporal entre estudantes regularmente matriculados nas séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública do município de Juiz de Fora – MG e identificar as impressões quanto à imagem e insatisfação corporais daqueles com estado nutricional adequado. Foi realizado um estudo de delineamento transversal, de natureza quantitativa e qualitativa, descritivo, analítico e exploratório. A amostra foi constituída por escolares entre oito e doze anos regularmente matriculados no Ensino Fundamental I de uma escola pública de Juiz de Fora - MG. O instrumento utilizado para avaliar a insatisfação corporal foi uma escala de figuras de silhuetas, sendo os demais dados coletados por meio de questionários. A coleta dos dados qualitativos se deu por meio de grupo focal. Os dados quantitativos foram analisados através do pacote estatístico Statistical Software for Professional (STATA), versão 12.0. A medida de associação utilizada foi a Razão de Prevalência (RP), determinada através da regressão de Poisson com estimador de variância robusta. Foi considerado um nível de significância de 5% para a definição do modelo final. A análise do grupo focal foi realizada utilizando-se diretamente os conteúdos provenientes das discussões. Observou-se frequência de insatisfação corporal de 86,5% e sua associação significativa com o porcentagem de gordura corporal, duração da atividade física, escolaridade materna e trabalho materno. Os resultados obtidos através do método qualitativo demonstram a preocupação com o corpo, aparência e com a opinião das outras pessoas a respeito da imagem corporal, além do desejo em realizar alguma alteração corpórea. Também foram observadas a influência da família e da mídia sobre a imagem corporal. A infância e a adolescência são períodos em que se adquirem hábitos que poderão ser levados por toda a vida, além de representarem um público propenso a atitudes inadequadas. Assim, destaca-se a importância em se realizar pesquisas com estes indivíduos, especialmente relativas à imagem corporal, já que a insatisfação com o corpo traz pensamentos e sensações negativos, influenciando a saúde emocional, a qualidade de vida e o convívio social. / The mental picture related to the size and shape of the body, besides the feelings and attitudes related to these characteristics, is designated by the term body image. Although single and indivisible, the body image integrates multiple dimensions, being vulnerable to internal and external dynamic processes and being in constant transformation. Body dissatisfaction is linked to low self-esteem and limitations of the psychosocial performance. It is also associated with depression, as well as being related to eating disorders like anorexia, bulimia and compulsive eating. The present study aimed to determine the factors associated to body dissatisfaction among students enrolled in the early grades of elementary school in a public school in the city of Juiz de Fora – MG, and identify the impressions on the body image and body dissatisfaction of those with adequate nutritional status. A cross design of quantitative and qualitative, descriptive, analytical and exploratory study was performed. The sample consisted of children between eight and twelve years, enrolled in the elementary school in a public school of Juiz de Fora - MG. The instrument used to assess body dissatisfaction was a body shape figures scale, and the remaining data was collected through questionnaires. The qualitative data was collected through the focus group method. The quantitative data was analyzed using the statistical package Statistical Software for Professional (STATA) version 12.0. The measure of association used was the prevalence ratio (PR), determined by the Poisson regression with robust variance estimator. It was considered a significance level of 5% for the definition of the final model. The analysis of the focus group was performed using the content of the discussions. It was observed a frequency of body dissatisfaction of 86.5% and significant association with body fat percentage, duration of physical activity, maternal education and maternal employment. The results obtained by the qualitative assay demonstrate the concern with the body appearance and the opinion of others about body image, besides the desire to perform some corporal change. The influence of family and media on body image was also observed. Childhood and adolescence are periods in which people acquire habits that may be taken for life, and they represent people prone to take inadequate attitudes. Thus, it is important to conduct research with these individuals, especially relating to body image, as body dissatisfaction brings negative thoughts and feelings, influencing emotional health, quality of life and social interaction.

Text in English / Scrum is the most adopted and under-researched Agile methodology. The research conducted on Scrum adoption is mainly qualitative. Therefore, there was a need for a quantitative study to investigate Scrum adoption challenges. The general objective of this study was to investigate the factors that have a significant relationship with Scrum adoption as perceived by Scrum practitioners working within South African organisations. To achieve this objective a narrative review to synthesise the existing challenges was conducted, followed by the use of these challenges in the development of a conceptual framework. After that, a survey questionnaire was used to test and evaluate the developed framework. The research findings indicate that relative advantage, complexity, and sprint management are factors that have a significant linear relationship with Scrum adoption. The findings are generalisable to the population, and the author recommends that organisations review the findings during their adoption phase of Scrum. / Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) / University of South Africa (UNISA) / School of Computing / M.Sc.

This diploma theses focuses on the issue of game studies and examines its connection with the news media. The relationship between these areas is analysed on the case study of the computer game Kingdom Come: Deliverance that reached international success. This study uses content analysis to identify the presence and way of presentation of this game project in the Czech Television news since 2014 to 2019. Regarding the international success of the game, I presume that not only the game itself but also the gaming industry as such might been more captured in the news. In addition to the analysis of media mentions of the game, the work also focuses on their contextual framework and context in which the Czech project was discussed. In addition to quantitative research on Czech Television news, the work is supplemented by a comparison of Czech and foreign reviews, which provides a broader view not only of a different approach to the game in the Czech Republic and the world, but also outlines the importance and relevance of the game itself. Key Words Kingdom Come: Deliverance, Game studies, Czech PC Games, media analysis, quantitative research

The 21st century has posed challenges and provided opportunities for organisations, and although a large body of research exists on both leadership and organisational climate, these two concepts have become a matter of urgency in South African organisations. The dynamics in the organisation have a direct effect on the people the organisation serves and business performance. The aim of this research was to explore the relationship between leadership and organisational climate in a South African fast-moving consumable goods (FMCG) organisation. There are few research studies that focus on leadership and organisational climate in the South African context and this study builds on limited existing knowledge. Using a descriptive, cross-sectional field survey approach, a sample of 896 participants employed at one organisation was surveyed. Explanatory factor analysis and the structural equation modelling (SEM) multivariate analysis technique revealed a new set of organisational dimensions and confirmed the relationship between leadership and organisational climate and organisational climate and its various dimensions. The findings emphasise the importance of certain generic and specific leadership practices in creating the desired organisational climate in the South African context. This study contributes to knowledge on the relationship between leadership and organisational climate in the South African context. / Psychology / M. Com. (Industrial and Organisational Psychology)
