Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa feita por intermédio da análise do conteúdo clássica e do tratamento automático com ajuda do IRAMUTEQ. Foram feitos dois estudos, uma na revista Veja (5 matérias publicadas no último surto) e outro no jornal Folha de São Paulo (291 matérias publicadas desde 1976 até março de 2015). Os resultados do estudo na revista Veja, através da análise de conteúdo com foco no eixo semântico (sentidos) e sintático (forma) apontam para 4 eixos de construção de sentidos: uso da metáfora da companhia militar para demonstrar o combate do homem contra um vírus potencialmente destrutivo; a alteridade radical, colocando o outro africano como “estranho e “poluente”, neste caso, com qualidades essencialmente negativas; o distanciamento, em que o vírus ebola é colocado como problema inerentemente africano e África como lugar que oferece condições propícias para disseminação da doença; a ideia da infra-humanização, colocando as qualidades do africano e respectivas crenças ou traços culturais como sub-humanas. O estudo do jornal Folha de São Paulo foi realizado com ajuda de tratamento automático de texto pelo software IRAMUTEQ, proporcionado a Classificação Hierárquica Descendente e análise fatorial de correspondência. Os resultados mostram mundos léxicos organizados em função, de um lado, do discurso do especialista, e de outro, do discurso do não especialista. O discurso dos especialistas traduz as hipóteses científicas explicativas em torno do vírus do ebola focalizadas no macaco como principal responsável pela passagem em humanos e o caráter destrutivo do ebola. O segundo eixo, dos não especialistas, aponta para a dicotomia ocidente versus África, representada através das oposições: ordem/caos, controle/descontrole, longínquo/próximo, “civilidade”/“incivilidade”, “superior”/“inferior”. Os resultados da Análise Fatorial de Correspondência nos permitiram constatar a emergência de dois polos. No polo horizontal vimos na classe 5 o discurso de especialista se opondo aos discursos das outras classes, que agrupam os discursos de não especialistas: a transnacionalização e pânico global (classe 3); mobilização mundial versus distanciamento (classe 1); olhar exótico e ambiente caótico (classe 4); histórico, prognóstico e dados epidemiológicos (classe 2). No polo vertical vimos as classes 1 (mobilização mundial versus distanciamento) e 2 (histórico, prognóstico e dados epidemiológicos) se opondo às classes 3 (transnacionalização e pânico global) e 4 (olhar exótico e ambientes caóticos). Apesar dos dois estudos serem feitos em períodos e veículos midiáticos diferentes, as representações sobre ebola não mudaram com o tempo. Percebem-se uma atitude ambivalente da mídia na construção do risco (aproxima e afasta); alteridade radical que relega ao africano e sua cultura o caráter essencialmente negativo e infra-humanização do africano. Por meio destes dois veículos de comunicação os sentidos atribuídos sobre ebola se organizam nas seguintes oposições: pureza /impureza, sujeira/limpeza, civilidade/incivilidade, caos/ordem. Os nossos achados demonstraram que a crise do ebola reatualiza a thêmata do reconhecimento social pela sua negativa. Vimos o olhar valorativo do outro africano pelo viés negativo, ligado à sujeira, impureza, incivilidade, descontrole. / This work aimed to study the social construction of Ebola in Brazilian's media using TRS, articulating concepts of alterity, risk, social problem, media and racism. It is a qualitative research done through the classical content analisys and automatic data processing with the help of IRAMUTEQ. Two studies, one in Veja magazine (5 articles published in the latest outbreak) and one in the newspaper Folha de São Paulo (291 articles published from 1976 to March 2015), were made. The results of the study in Veja magazine, through content analysis focused on the semantic axis (mean) and syntactic (build) point to 4 axis of construction: use metaphor of military company to demonstrate man's fight against a virus potentially destructive; the radical alterity, setting other African as "strange and pollutant", in this case, with essentially negative qualities; the distance, where the virus is Ebola placed as inherently African problem and Africa as a place that offers favorable conditions for spread of the disease; the idea of infrahumanization, setting the qualities of African and their beliefs or cultural traits as subhuman. The study of the newspaper Folha de São Paulo was accomplished out automated processing of help text by IRAMUTEQ software, provided a Descending Hierarchical Classification and correspondence factor analisys. The results show lexical worlds organized in function, on the one hand, the specialist speech and, in another speech, the non-specialist speech. Speaking of experts translate the explanatory scientific hypotheses around the Ebola virus in monkeys as focused primarily responsible for the passage in humans and the destructive character of Ebola. The second axis, the non-specialist, points to the dichotomy versus West Africa, represented by the oppositions: order/chaos, control/lack, far/close, "civility"/"incivility", "superior"/"inferior". The results of the AFC allowed us to note the emergence of two poles. The horizontal pole we saw, in class 5, specialist speech opposing the speeches of other classes, the speeches of non-specialists that talking about the transnationalization and global panic (Class 3); global mobilization versus distance (Class 1); exotic look and chaotic environment (class 4); history, prognosis and epidemiological data (class 2). The vertical pole we saw class 1 (global mobilization versus distance) and 2 (history, prognosis and epidemiological data) opposing Classes 3 (transnationalization and global panic) and 4 (exotic look and chaotic environments). Although the two studies were made in different periods and newspapers, the representations of Ebola have not changed over time. Realize up an ambivalent attitude of the media to building risk (approach and move way); radical alterity that relegates to the african and his culture an essentially negative character and infrahumanization of Africa. The Brazilian's media organizes the meanings attributed to Ebola around the following oppositions: purity/impurity, dirt/cleanliness, civility/incivility, chaos/order. Our findings demonstrate that ebola crisis renews the themata social for its negative. We saw the valuative gaze of the other African by the negative bias on the dirt, uncleanness, incivility, lack.

In this study the researcher set out to determine the levels and the causes of workplace stress, as well as the consequences of stress in terms of witnessed and experienced aggression in the workplace, anxiety, depression, and worry for a sample of 205 subjects. To achieve this, the following tests were used: 1) Experience of Work and Life Circumstances Questionnaire, 2) the Aggression in the Workplace Questionnaire, 3) the IPAT Anxiety Scale,4) the Beck Depression Inventory, and 5) the Penn State Worry Questionnaire. The subjects’ ability to cope withexperienced stressors in relation to social problem solving was examined with the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised. The raw data were analysed by means of the usual descriptivestatistics. In addition, inferential statistics including z-tests, t-tests, analysis of variance and posthoc analyses (Scheffé) were conducted for the following groups: total group, gender, marital status, age, organizational type, qualification and position level. Results indicate that most of the subjects in the sample experienced normal levels of stress, indicating that the participants generally experienced their circumstances within or outside the workplace as satisfactory. Generally, the results also indicated that their expectations regarding their work situation were met. With reference to the consequences of stress, the total sample reported low levels of witnessing and experiencing workplace aggression, normal levels of anxiety, low levels of depression and worry. Good overall social problem solving suggests the ability to cope with demands and stressors within and outside the workplace. Generally, Pearson correlations indicated significant relationships between a) levels of stress as experienced by subjects and b) witnessed and experienced workplace aggression, c) anxiety, d) depression, e) worry and f) social problem solving. That most of the subjects in this sample were able to deal effectively with the demands and stressors placed on them, from within and outside the workplace suggests the ability to use effective problem-focused coping involving social problem solving which for most participants, was due to a positive problem orientation and effective rational problem solving skills. These findings may be useful as part of a stress management programme to help employees deal with stress proactively by becoming more effective problem-solvers. In terms of a salutogenic paradigm, and consistent with recent developments in positive psychology, the findings indicate that more attention should be paid to possible reasons why some employees appear to cope with stress more effectively than others. / Thesis (PhD (Psychology))--University of Pretoria, 2008. / Psychology / PhD / unrestricted

The thesis deals with the impact of cause related marketing campaigns on the customers in the Czech Republic. The thesis is divided into theoretical and practical parts. Within the theoretical part, the attention is paid to the determination of CRM, as well as to the CSR concept, on whose grounds CRM is based on. For the findings about the situation on the Czech market regarding CRM, chosen CRM campaigns were analyzed together with its particular campaign characteristic, which cause the campaign to be un/successful. Because commercial subjects evaluate the campaigns according to the gathered amount of money, it is difficult to find out the real impact of CRM campaigns. Therefore, the own survey became a part of the practical part of the thesis with the aim to find out this impact directly from the customers. The results were compared with the American studies and are summed up into the ideal campaign, which is introduced on the chosen bank company.

With this study, we intend to seek knowledge about how educators perceive and relate to norm conflicts in preschool. The aim of the study is to focus on what educators say about norm conflicts based on their work and how they believe that they can create relationships between children and their parents and colleagues among themselves. In this study, we have chosen to start from the following questions: How do educators perceive norm conflicts, what are they about and how can they arise? How do norm conflicts affect the work of educators in preschool activities? What do educators think is needed to deal with norm conflicts? We have chosen to do a qualitative study based on qualitative interviews with eight educatorsin preschools located in different geographical areas in Stockholm - Sweden. By educators we mean four preschool teachers and four educator workers. The result of our study is based on analyses from the social constructivist theory and perpectives on interculturality. Social constructivist theory is a social science perspective that has its basis on people reproducing new perceptions of reality and self-understanding in interaction with each other and with the environment around them. Interculturality can be explained by Pirjo Lahdenperä as a social interaction, a process, or an overstep, since "inter" means interpersonal interaction and"culture" means meaning systems of meaning, which gives meaning and a special focus in aperson's life. The result of the study shows that all informants, regardless of position, are aware of the meaning of norms and values and agree that everyone should start from everyone's equalvalue. The social consensus theory that has helped us to understand the informants' different perceptions of norm conflicts that were highlighted as social phenomena, from the linguistic interaction to understand why individuals clash with norm conflicts due to language difficulties and misconceptions in communication in collegiate work.

The main aim of this thesis was to investigate decision making from a broad developmental perspective to clarify the role of the underlying mechanisms influencing it. Problem solving and cognitive inhibitory capacity were chartered initially through the use of hypothetical vignettes depicting socially relevant situations and through the use of the Stroop task, to tap into automatic inhibitory capacity. Initial assumptions that prefrontal cortical refinement would denote enhanced social problem ability were not confirmed. Experience emerged as distinct factor in problem solving/decision-making, with the youngest participants equally as effective in producing solutions to situations that they had the most experience in. A shift in development is observed with maturation denoting greater experience and this being applied directly to problem solving and decision-making situations. Education was identified as a possible contributory factor in decision-making and this was explored in a cross-cultural study that tapped into a non-schooled population. The results reinforced the centrality of experience in shaping decision-making. Decision-making in regards to the use of experience was then looked at through real life decision-making situations, where adolescents were asked to provide their knowledge or experience of situations where risk was involved. Adolescents possessed the necessary knowledge to distinguish between optimal and sub-optimal decisions in terms of the consequences that risk behaviours carried with them. However, many still chose to engage in risky behaviours. This paradox could also be explained by actual experience, with the suggestion that positive experience in a peer group was serving as a pool from which adolescents drew to make future decision-making. If risk behaviours were not experienced adversely, the likelihood of their repetition was high. Taken together the findings suggest that adolescents are well equipped with the cognitive skills to make decisions. Compared to younger children, they have more experience of a greater range of situations from which to extrapolate responses from. They also have a great deal of knowledge and information about the negative consequences associated with a range of challenging situations and risk-taking behaviours. However, when faced with decisions in the social domain, the behaviour of friends and perceptions of what other people are doing are powerful influences on adolescent decisions.

本研究以確立中文版『社會問題解決量表-修正版（簡稱SPSI-R）』之因素結構及探討社會問題解決與憂鬱、壓力之關係為主要目的。 『社會問題解決』一詞指稱發生在日常生活中的問題解決歷程，社會問題解決模式與SPSI-R將社會問題解決歷程分為五個向度（因素）：「正向問題定向」、「負向問題定向」、「理性問題解決風格」、「衝動/粗心風格」、「逃避風格」。 本研究根據理論與過去文獻探索性因素分析結果，提出三種可能適合描述華人樣本社會問題解決的因素結構：五因素一階（原理論之模型）、四因素一階、五因素二階模型。以台灣大學生為樣本，採用驗證性因素分析，結果顯示五因素一階的因素結構為最佳模型，支持原模式之理論架構與SPSI-R五因素結構在華人樣本的可類比性。同時刪除第42題因其無法確切反應逃避風格因素之意涵。 採用本研究所確立的SPSI-R五因素結構探討社會問題解決與憂鬱關係，發現排除問題風格後，負向問題定向可顯著預測憂鬱；排除問題定向後，逃避風格可顯著預測憂鬱，顯示負向問題定向與逃避風格對憂鬱有獨特之預測力。探討社會問題解決對壓力—憂鬱關係的影響，結果顯示衝動/粗心風格為日常問題與憂鬱之調節變項。此結果支持社會問題解決模式中，分殊不同向度的必要性，並提供臨床上憂鬱之問題解決治療方案可採行的策略。 / Confirmatory factor analysis was used to investigate the generalizability of the factor structure of the Social Problem-Solving Inventory- Revised (SPSI-R; D’Zurilla, Nezu, & Mayden-Olivares, 2002) The SPSI-R is based on a theoretical model and was modified by empirical data consisting of five factors – positive problem orientation, negative problem orientation, rational problem solving style, impulsivity/carelessness style, avoidance style. According to the theory model and empirical data with Chinese sample, the present study proposed another two alternative model. Thus, three different model were tested. With the sample of 916 Taiwanese undergraduate students, the results showed that the original five factor model which was proposed by D’Zurilla et al. was the best for SPSI-R in the sense of goodness of fit. This finding supports the Generalizability of SPSI-R in Taiwanese. Using the five-factor model of SPSI-R to examine the relation between SPSI-R and depression. Negative problem orientation and avoidance style were both significantly related to depression even after partialing out the variance of “Style” and “Orientation” respectively. While exploring the influence of SPSI-R on the relationship of stress and depression, a support was found for the moderator hypothesis which assumes that social problem solving interacts with everyday problems to influence the level of depression. Therefore, the findings in present study supported the distinction of five factors in SPSI-R. The implications of these results for social problem solving theory and assessment are also discussed.

However, there is no data in the Brazilian literature measuring this variable. This study had two aims. Firstly, a group intervention with young offenders was conducted with the aims of promoting the discrimination and emission of competent social responses associated with their psychosocial well-being (Study 1). Six male young offenders took part of the intervention program. The study was conducted in a young offenders Detention Center in the interior of São Paulo State, Brazil. Instruments used to assess the intervention were: Guided Interview, Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS), Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R) and, School Performance Test. The intervention program consisted of three pre-intervention sessions to gather data, and ten intervention sessions in problem-solving skills training, followed by a three month post-intervention follow-up. Results indicated a history of school failure and violence victimization, as well as the use of alcohol and drugs, and involvement in aggressive episodes. High level drop-out rates was observed in this study: only two participants were present in all phases of the intervention. In the pre-test, five participants indicated anxiety and depression, and four participants indicated hopelessness. In the post-test, one participant indicated a decrease of depression, anxiety and hopelessness; the other participant maintained of depression levels (in the low range), anxiety (low) and hopelessness (low). Five participants took part of the Follow- Up. All participants indicated a decrease of depression in that phase. In terms of anxiety, in the participants who were present in all phases, one decreased his level (from severe to low), and the other presented the same performance (low). Other participants indicated: maintenance (low and moderate) or an increase (low to moderate). In terms of hopelessness, among the participants who were present in all phases, the same performance was maintained (absence). The others showed: maintenance (moderate/low) and a decrease (severe/moderate) of performance. The Social Problem- Solving Inventory-Revised data showed that four participants performance were in the average range of the normal group, and two had deficits in this area. In post-test, one participant increased his performance, and the other maintained it. In the Follow-Up, the performance varied from average to much above average. In spite of the study s methodological limitations, this is the first study in Brazil to investigate group social problem solving skills with young offenders in a Detention Center, and the first to utilize one specific instrument to analyze social problem repertory solving in this population. The second study adapted to Portuguese the Social Problem-Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R), and investigated its evidence of criteria and content validity. Seventy six male adolescents took part of study, being 38 offenders and 38 no-offenders. The study was conducted in a Young Offenders Center, and at a public school in the city of São Carlos en São Paulo State. The instrument used to assess the study was the Social Problem- Solving Inventory-Revised (SPSI-R). The instrument was applied in group, and the time of application was approximately 30 minutes. In terms of content validity, the study showed a 95% agreement among assessors. In terms of criteria validity, the results showed that the instrument could discriminate offenders from the non-offender population. The development of intervention programs and instruments specific to this population is much needed, as the numbers of studies in this area is reduced in Brazil. / O déficit de habilidades de resolução de problemas sociais entre adolescentes em conflito com a lei vem sendo apontado como uma das características dessa população. Entretanto, não há dados na literatura nacional que venham mensurar essa variável. Diante desta constatação, o presente estudo teve dois objetivos. Em um primeiro momento avaliou-se uma intervenção em grupo com adolescentes em conflito com a lei com o intuito de favorecer a discriminação e a emissão de respostas socialmente competentes favorecedoras ao seu bem-estar psicossocial (Estudo 1). Participaram do programa de intervenção seis adolescentes do sexo masculino, autores de atos infracionais. A pesquisa foi realizada em uma unidade da antiga FEBEM (Fundação CASA). Os instrumentos utilizados foram: Roteiro de Entrevista Individual, Inventário de Depressão Beck (BDI), Inventário de Ansiedade Beck (BAI), Inventário de Desesperança de Beck (BHS), Inventário de Resolução de Problemas Sociais Revisado: Forma Abreviada (SPSI-R:S) e Teste de Desempenho Escolar (TDE). Foram realizadas três sessões na fase pré-teste e dez sessões de ensino de resolução de problemas sociais na fase de intervenção. Três meses após o término do grupo, foi feita uma sessão para coleta de dados pós-intervenção. Os resultados indicaram: histórico de fracasso escolar; histórico de maus-tratos infantis, consumo de bebidas alcoólicas e drogas ilícitas, e envolvimento em lutas corporais. Verificou-se um índice expressivo de abandono da intervenção, apenas dois participantes estiveram presentes em todas as sessões. Na fase de pré-teste, cinco participantes indicaram quadros de depressão e ansiedade, e quatro participantes indicaram desesperança. Na fase de pós-teste, um participante indicou diminuição da depressão, da ansiedade e da desesperança; o outro manteve os níveis de depressão (leve), de ansiedade (leve) e de desesperança (ausente). Na fase de follow-up, cinco participantes responderam ao instrumento. Todos indicaram diminuição da depressão. No que se refere à ansiedade, entre os que estiveram presentes em todas as fases, um diminuiu (de grave para leve) e outro apresentou o mesmo desempenho (leve). Os demais indicaram: manutenção (leve e moderado) ou aumento (leve para moderado). Quanto à desesperança, os que estiveram presentes em todas as fases apresentaram o mesmo nível (ausente). Os demais indicaram: manutenção (moderado/leve) e diminuição (grave/moderado). Quanto à habilidade de resolução de problemas,verificou-se que quatro participantes apresentavam repertórios na média do grupo normal e dois participantes tinham déficits de tais habilidades. Na fase de pósteste, um participante melhorou o desempenho e outro manteve o mesmo repertório. Na fase de follow-up, o desempenho oscilou indo da média do grupo normal a muito acima da média. Apesar das limitações metodológicas, como a ausência de dados sistemáticos, o presente estudo é o primeiro no Brasil a examinar habilidades de resolução de problemas sociais em grupo com adolescentes internados em uma unidade da FEBEM e o primeiro a utilizar um instrumento específico para análise do repertório de resolução de problemas sociais (SPSI:S-R) nessa população. Este estudo demonstra a relevância de se trabalhar com adolescentes infratores em situação de internação, população tipicamente excluída na sociedade brasileira. O Estudo 2 buscou validar, para uso no contexto brasileiro, o Inventário de Resolução de Problemas Sociais-Revisado: Forma Abreviada (SPSR:S), bem como investigar a evidência de validade de conteúdo e critério. Participaram do estudo 76 adolescentes do sexo masculino, sendo 38 adolescentes infratores e 38 não infratores. A pesquisa foi realizada em dois locais distintos: no Núcleo de Atendimento Integrado (NAI) destinada ao atendimento de adolescentes em conflito com a lei na cidade de São Carlos e em escola estadual da mesma cidade. O instrumento utilizado foi o Inventário de Resolução de Problemas Sociais Revisado: Forma Abreviada (SPSI-R:S). O instrumento foi aplicado coletivamente e o tempo de aplicação foi de aproximadamente 30 minutos. Os resultados mostraram no que se refere às evidencias de validade de conteúdo uma concordância entre os juízes de aproximadamente 95%. Quanto à validade de critério, o instrumento foi capaz de discriminar populações de infratores e não infratores. Pode-se afirmar que há uma relação aparente entre o Escore e o Grupo, ou seja, quanto maior o escore total no SPSI-R:S maior a probabilidade de o jovem não ser infrator. O desenvolvimento de programas de intervenção e instrumentos específicos para esta população se mostra relevante uma vez que o número de pesquisas voltadas à intervenção e mensuração, apesar dos esforços de estudiosos, ainda é reduzido no Brasil.

We started of an analysis on the deep alterations occurred in the last decades in the world of the work, that modified the forms to manage and to organize the productive processes in result of new imperatives of the capitalist order. As strategy of exit of the crises, the system itself created measures to give continuity to its ideas, as it occurred with the process of productive reorganization.
