What helps self-control? Social relationship characteristics and self-control

January 2012 (has links)
abstract: Researchers have found inconsistent effects (negative or positive) of social relationships on self-control capacity. The variation of findings may depend on the aspects of social relationships. In this study, rather than examining overall social relationships and self-control, characteristics in social relationships were clearly defined, including social support, social connection and social conflict, to determine their specific effects on self-control. An online survey study was conducted, and 292 college students filled out the survey. For data analysis, path analysis was utilized to examined the direct effect and indirect effect from social relationships to self-control. Results showed social connection and social conflict may indirectly associate with self-control through stress, but social support does not. It may suggest, in traditional stress buffering model, it is the social connection in social support that really reduce the stress. Concerning the direct effects, social support and social connection were significantly associated with self-control directly, but social conflict does not. This result may support the Social Baseline Theory that positive social relationships have direct regulating effects. Results are good for guidance of experimental manipulation of social relationships in study of social influences of self-control. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.S. Psychology 2012

Preserving the Democratic Governance: An Analysis of the Conflict Resolution Offices (2000-2014) / Preservando la gobernabilidad democrática: Un análisis de las Oficinas de Resolución de Conflictos 2000-2014

Orellana, Andrea January 2015 (has links)
Este trabajo analiza el periodo 2000-2014, que comprende la caída del régimen fujimorista y el regreso de gobiernos democráticos al país. Esta periodización resulta importante para explicar el fenómeno de respuesta estatal frente a los conflictos sociales, en tanto, a partir del año 2000 y el regreso de gobiernos democráticos, la problemática comienza a tomar una posición en la agendaestatal y consecuentemente se empiezan a dar esfuerzos de presentar una estrategia de gestión y resolución de conflictos. El trabajo además propone una división de cuatro etapas de esta respuesta estatal. Estas etapas, que no corresponden ni a los periodos presidenciales ni a la denominación de las oficinas de resolución de conflictos, están definidas por factores que produjeron cambios significativos entre una etapa y otra. Asimismo, el texto explica cada uno de estos factores y en qué medida propiciaron estos cambios. La investigación recoge información de diversas fuentes, así como la recopilación de entrevistas a funcionarios que se desempeñaron a lo largo de este periodo,en cada una de las etapas. De esta manera podemos exponer la respuesta del Estado frente a los conflictos sociales, cuáles han sido y son las estrategias utilizadas para tratar la problemática, y sobre todo cuáles son los factores que generan un cambio en la función de gestión y resolución de conflictos.

Ribeiro, Viviane Terres. January 2012 (has links)
Orientador: Lígia Ebner Melchiori / Banca: Rinaldo Correr / Banca: Olga Maria P. Rolim Rodrigues / Resumo: O aumento crescente de adolescentes em conflito com a lei no contexto brasileiro pode indicar uma falha tanto nas relações sociais e no desenvolvimento familiar. Com o objetivo de tentar elucidar alguns aspectos deste fenômeno, os objetivos desta pesquisa foram: (a) caracterizar as famílias dos adolescentes em liberdade assistida; (b) descrever o tipo de vínculo de apego estabelecido entre os participantes das três gerações (avós, mães/pais e adolescentes); (c) identificar as relações afetivas de adolescentes em diferentes contextos (família, escola, amigos e outros); e (d) descrever as práticas educativas de três gerações - avós, genitores e adolescentes - considerando como foram educados e como educaram, no caso dos adultos. Os participantes foram 10 jovens inseridos no programa do CREAS II e seus familiares de mais duas gerações: genitores (mãe e/ou pai ou padrasto) e avós maternas ou paternas. Para atingir os objetivos propostos foram utilizados vários instrumentos: o Inventário de Estilos Parentais (IEP) e a Medida de Estilo de Apego foram utilizados com todos os participantes; a Técnica do Modelo Esquemático do Tapete foi utilizada com os adolescentes; e o Questionário de Caracterização do Sistema Familiar com as mães. Dentre as características familiares destaca-se que as configurações foram as mais diversas, que a rede social de apoio as mães é pequena e se concentraq em figuras femininas, em especial as avós. A maioria dos genitores são citados como usuários de algum tipo de substância psicoativa. Verificou-se na média das respostas dos participantes e prevalência de práticas educativas Regulares Abaixo da Média e Regulares Acima da Média entre as três gerações, explicitando que para muias das práticas educativas, explicitando que para muitas das práticas educativas investigativas...

In order to elucidate some aspects of this phenomenon, the objectives of this research were: (a) characterize the families of adolescents in probation, (b) describe the type of attachment relationship established between the participants ot the three generations (grandparents, parents and adolescents), (c) identify emotional relationships of adolescents in different contexts (family, shool, friends and others) and (d) describe the eduational practices of three generations - grandparents, parents and adolescents - considering how they were educated and low they educated (the adult ones). The participants were 10 young people from CREAS II program, and their families of over two generations - their parents (mothers and/or father or stepfather) and paternal or maternal grandmothers. To achieve the objectives, the instruments Parental Styles Inventory and Attachment Style Measure were used with all participants. The Carpet Schematic Model Technique was used with the adolescents and the Family System Characteristics Questionnaire with their mothers. Some aspects are highlighted: diverse setting among the family characteristics, the mother's social support network is small and focuses on female figures, especially grandmothers. Most parents were users of some kind of psychoactive substance. In the average responses, the prevalence of regular educational practices below average and abobe average between the three generations, explaining that for many of the educational practices investigated there no indications of intergenerational transmission. Most teens reported Secure attachment to their mothers, which is opposed to the values... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Mestre

A social-scientific key to Paul's letter to the Galatians : an alternative to opponent hypotheses as a cypher key

Craffert, Pieter F. 06 1900 (has links)
Opposition to Paul as central to the occasion of the letter to the Galatians ·(expressed in scholarly circles in terms of different opponent hypotheses) is identified as a pivotal factor in the interpretation of that letter. An analysis of some of the received opponent hypotheses reveals that today, as throughout the history of the critical interpretation of the letter, they are basically different proposals sharing the same historical and methodological components. Both components are critically examined and it is suggested that inadequate assumptions lead to an anachronistic and ethnocentric view of the nature of the conflict and consequently, from a his­ torical point of view, a distorted cypher key to the interpretation of the letter. The proposal of a social-scientific approach to the letter presents, at the meth­ odological level, the components of an alternative cypher key. It attempts to be interdisciplinary in that it accounts for the otherness of foreign cultures and distant historical eras in an integrated and explicit way. Because of the methodological components an alternative set of historical com­ ponents can be suggested. A focus on contemporary views on first-century Judaism and the expansion of the Pauline communities in the first-century world not only . points to shortcomings in the received views but provides an alternative perspective on the communicative context of the letter. A first but important step is taken to construct a probable first-century Mediterranean communicative context for the interpretation of the letter. In view of this alternative communicative context it is possible to redefine the con­ flict as a truly first-century Mediterranean one in which Paul's authority and honour were at stake. This makes it possible to construe the text in a different way. Instead of regarding the letter to the Galatians as a document of intra-Christian struggle about conflicting theological or doctrinal convictions, it is suggested that the letter be construed as the product of Paul's missionary endeavour within the household setting, the subculture of first-century Judaism, and the confines of orality and reli­ gion in the first-century world. / Biblical and Ancient Studies / D.

Compliance management of the agreements derived from social conflicts: a model of analysis of public management and public policy / Gestión del cumplimiento de los acuerdos derivados de los conflictos sociales: un modelo de análisis desde la gestión pública y las políticas públicas

Balbuena Palacios, Patricia, Ramos Timaná, Gabriel 12 April 2018 (has links)
Since the 21st century, in Peru, there has been an increase in social conflicts, mainly socio-environmental, linked to the growth of the extractive industry due to the boom in commodities. fte foregoing demonstrates a paradox between economic growth and governability that, in some cases, has resulted in episodes of extreme violence. In this scenario, the Peruvian State has developed important reforms and various tools for the management of social conflictivity through dialogue. However, the constant failure to comply with the agreements derived from the dialogue has generated the questioning of the various mechanisms. fte purpose of this article is to propose a model of analysis to study compliance with the agreements derived from the dialogue and suggest manners to improve them. fte data were recorded through tools like the bibliographic review, documental and semi-structured interviews. fte research concludes that the political content is fundamental for consensus, but its viability will depend on the technical implementation of the agreements and the promises reached. To this aim, it is proposed to explain the difficulties in the compliance management of the agreements based on three levels of analysis: a) state capacities; b) internal management of the agreement; and, c) governmental coordination. Exploratory hypotheses are being outlined for future research. / Desde el siglo XXI, en el Perú, se ha registrado un aumento de los conflictos sociales, principalmente socioambientales, vinculados al crecimiento de la industria extractiva por el boom de los commodities. Lo anterior evidencia una paradoja entre el crecimiento económico y la gobernabilidad que, en algunos casos, ha devenido en episodios de extrema violencia. Ante este escenario, el Estado peruano ha desarrollado importantes reformas y diversas herramientas para la gestión de la conflictividad social a través del diálogo. Sin embargo, el constante incumplimiento de los acuerdos derivados del diálogo ha generado el cuestionamiento de los diversos mecanismos. Este artículo tiene como objetivo proponer un modelo de análisis para estudiar el cumplimiento de los acuerdos derivados del diálogo y sugerir rutas de mejora. Se registraron datos a través de herramientas como revisión bibliográfica, documental y entrevistas semi estructuradas. La investigación concluye que el contenido político es fundamental para el consenso, pero su viabilidad dependerá de la implementación técnica de los acuerdos y las promesas alcanzadas. Para ello, se propone explicar las dificultades en la gestión del cumplimiento de los acuerdos a partir de tres niveles de análisis a) capacidades estatales, b) gestión interna del acuerdo y c) coordinación gubernamental. Se esbozan hipótesis exploratorias para futuras investigaciones.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Raslan_FilipeOliveira_M.pdf: 1105665 bytes, checksum: b15ecf4d3ca0449f88ff929468894a8b (MD5) Previous issue date: 2007 / Resumo: Essa dissertação busca analisar e compreender o que ocorre na Flaskô, uma fábrica falida cuja gestão da produção está a sob responsabilidade dos próprios operários da empresa. Essa situação pode ser considera relativamente comum, pois é recorrente funcionários assumirem empresas em dificuldade financeira e formarem uma cooperativa. Porém, no caso da Flaskô, isso não ocorreu, pois os trabalhadores ao retomarem a produção, passaram a reivindicar a estatização da fábrica. Dessa maneira, a pesquisa tenta percorrer o cotidiano dos trabalhadores na empresa e nas suas jornadas em busca de suas reivindicações. O interessante nesse estudo de caso é entender o significado dessa situação no contexto em que ocorre o processo de privatização no Brasil, as reformas do Estado, um crescimento exponencial do desemprego e as outras dinâmicas de reestruturação produtiva do país. Para além da apreciação da Flaskô no cenário contemporâneo, a dissertação analisa o sentido da forma cooperativa e sua reconfiguração em controle operário, sob os auspícios dos trabalhadores da Flaskô / Abstract: This thesis aims to analyse and understand what occurs in Flaskô, a failed factory whose production's management is under the responsibility of the own factory's workers. This situation can be considered relatively common, for it is usual that workers take over the control of the failed factories and organize a cooperative. Nevertheless, in this case that situation did not happen, for the workers started to revindicate the factory's statization when they retook the production. In this way this research tries to study the workers' quotidian in the factory and in their revindications. In this case it is our aim to understand the meaning of this situation in the context in which occur the process of privatization in Brazil, the State's reforms, the exponential increase of unemployment and other phenomens of productive restructuration in this country. Beyond the study of the Flaskô in the contemporaneous scenery, the thesis analyses the meaning of the cooperative form and its reconfiguration at the working class control / Mestrado / Sociologia do Trabalho / Mestre em Sociologia

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / O objetivo principal deste trabalho à compreender como foi vivenciada a homossexualidade pelas pessoas que frequentavam e moravam prÃximo Ãs PraÃas da GentilÃndia e entender as prÃticas conflituosas que ocorreram nessas PraÃas. Descrever como se deram as manifestaÃÃes homofÃbicas nesses espaÃos e como os jovens lutaram para resistir à homofobia e para se manter nas PraÃas, que jà foram consideradas principais pontos de encontro de jovens homossexuais em Fortaleza. Para isso, relatarei e analisarei o conflito que existiu entre os jovens homossexuais, os moradores e os demais frequentadores, levando em consideraÃÃo dois recortes temporais para melhor compreender o conflito que se deu em dois momentos. O primeiro momento do conflito aconteceu de dezembro de 2004 a julho de 2006, e o segundo momento, de abril de 2007 atà meados de agosto de 2008. Nessa perspectiva, discutirei o preconceito contra homossexuais, a produÃÃo e reproduÃÃo, bem como os processos de desconstruÃÃo desses preconceitos, tanto nas PraÃas da GentilÃndia como no meio social. / The main goal of this work is to understand the homosexuality behavior experienced by the people who used to walk around or lived next to the squares of GentilÃndia and also to study the conflicting practices found in these areas. In this work, the homophobic demonstrations occurred in these squares and the resistance of the young people imposed against these practices in order to guarantee their space in there squares are investigated. Not so far ago, these squares were considered one of the main points of the homosexual people in Fortaleza. The conflict presented among the homosexual young people, the local resident people and other visitors is investigated, taking into account two distinct time interval in order to better understand the exposed problem. The first time interval occurred between December of 2004 until July of 2006, and the second interval between April of 2007 and August of 2008. In this scenario, it is discussed prejudice against homosexuals, the production and reproduction, as well as the process of the breakdown of this same prejudices, presented both in the Square of GentilÃndia as social environment.

A avenida de mil vias: conflito, contradição e ambivalência na modernização de São Paulo (1890-1920) / The avenue of thousand ways: conflict, contradiction and ambivalence in the modernization of São Paulo (1890-1920)

Pedro Beresin Schleder Ferreira 27 April 2017 (has links)
Este trabalho tem como objetivo deslindar consensos e firmar interpretações para o \"fazer-se\" da cidade de São Paulo a partir da consideração das múltiplas dinâmicas, relações, estratégias, confluências e disputas que foram articuladas pela ampla gama de agentes envolvidos nesse imbricado processo. Não à toa escolhemos a Avenida Angélica, das décadas de 1890 a 1920, como objeto. Sobre ela incide na historiografia uma imagem monolítica, que reitera a explicação da modernização de São Paulo como a vitória plena e triunfante de um projeto consensual das elites. Sendo assim, trata-sede um palco privilegiado para observarmos as tensões, fissuras e incongruências ocultadas por essa homogeneidade construída e darmos passos em direção a outros caminhos explicativos possíveis. Para tanto, nos valemos de vasto corpus documental que nos permitiu penetrar em diversos âmbitos e dimensões do processo de consolidação e vivência da Avenida. Através das atas camarárias, pedidos de obras, jornais e cartografias, adentramos em seu espaço-tempo a partir de quatro perspectivas: as agitações de seu mercado de terras e imóveis, os conflitos no estabelecimento de regulamentações construtivas, as ambivalentes experiências e expectativas diante de seu \"progresso\" e as múltiplas relações sociais, materiais e econômicas envolvidas no chão de sua vida cotidiana. Por meio dessas, descobrimos que ali, lado a lado com os anseios exibitivos e segregativos das elites e do Estado, habitavam as ruas, batalhavam por suas estratégias e direitos, desenvolviam suas vidas e erguiam suas residências os mais diversos membros dos setores médios e trabalhadores da cidade. Percebemos que os grupos e classes tampouco eram estanques, mas homogêneos e heterogêneos, fraternos e competitivos, de uma só vez. Isso porque os interesses públicos e privados de seus membros, fossem das elites ou dos menos apossados, variavam de acordo com as circunstancias. Essas oscilações nos anseios e nas conjunturas tornavam o \"fazer-se\" da Avenida um dinâmico mosaico de fronteiras. Limiares multidimensionais, que eram entrecruzados pelos universos das relações sociais, materiais e simbólicas. Longe de configurarem \"muros\", as fronteiras eram cambiantes e de consistência variada. Quando porosas, configuravam espaços de associação e negociação entre os agentes. Quando cerradas, tornavam-se limiares de rijos conflitos, disputas e tensões. Em suas bordas, encontros e desencontros conformaram um \"fazer-se\" irrequieto, plural e movediço. Longe de ser plena, a Angélica era uma encruzilhada, onde encontravam-se os desejos, táticas e práticas da ampla e variada gama de seus habitantes, configurando uma modernização ambivalente, plural, imbricada. Ao invés de unívoca e retilínea, era uma Avenida de mil vias tensas e entremeadas. / This work aims at establishing consensus and establishing interpretations for the \"making\" of the city of São Paulo based on the consideration of the multiple dynamics, relationships, strategies, confluences and disputes that were articulated by the wide range of agents involved in this imbricated process. No wonder we chose Avenida Angelica, from the 1890s to the 1920s, as an object. Under it historiography has a monolithic image, which reiterates the explanation of the modernization of Sao Paulo as the full and triumphant victory of a consensual project of the elites. Thus, it is a privileged stage to observe the tensions, fissures and incongruities hidden by this constructed homogeneity and to take steps towards other possible explanatory paths. To do so, we used a vast documentary corpus that allowed us to penetrate into various scopes and dimensions of the process of consolidation and experience of the Avenue. Through the city councils, requests for works, newspapers and cartographies, we enter into its space-time from four perspectives: the agitations of its land and real estate market, the conflicts in the establishment of constructive regulations, the ambivalent experiences and expectations before it\'s \"progress\", and the multiple social, material, and economic relationships involved in the ground of his daily life. Through these we discovered that there, side by side with the exhibition and segregative yearnings of the elites and the state, they inhabited the streets, fought for their strategies and rights, developed their lives, and erected their residences, the most diverse members of the middle and City workers. We realized that the groups and classes were not watertight, but homogeneous and heterogeneous, fraternal and competitive, all at once. This was because the interests, public and private, of its members, were of the elites or of the lesser ones, varied according to the circumstances. These oscillations in yearnings and conjunctures made the \"making-up\" of the Avenue a dynamic mosaic of frontiers. Multidimensional thresholds, which were intersected by the universes of social, material and symbolic relations. Far from forming \"walls\", the boundaries were changing and of varying consistency. When porous, they formed spaces of association and negotiation among agents. When closed, conflicts, disputes, and tensions became thresholds. At their edges, encounters and disagreements formed a restless, plural and unstable \"making itself\". Far from being full, Angelica was a crossroads, where the desires, tactics and practices of the wide and varied range of its inhabitants were found, forming an ambivalent, plural, overlapping modernization. Rather than univocal and straight, it was an avenue of thousand strained and interspersed streets.
