Therefore, it was selected 30 individuals through the procedure of Snow Ball (15 men and 15 women), aged between 22 and 40, who had at least 30% of their body surface covered by tattoos. On data collection, it was utilized a semi-directed interview, a picture of a chosen tattoo by the participant and the free association from this image. The data were analyzed according to the jungian psychosomatics. The results allowed to observe 11 categories: perception of aching, rising self-esteem, rising of attractiveness feeling, prejudices, regret on the choice of the image, religious factor, financial independency, moment of life they made the chosen tattoo, motivation for acquisition of the chosen tattoo, repercussion on the individual’s life after making the tattoo, symbols and images chosen. The results pointed out the incidence of prejudice, influence of the religious and financial factor at the time of tattooing, besides the perception of pain sometimes related to sacrifice, sometimes associated to self-mutilation behaviours. It was observed that the tattoo increases the self-esteem and eases extroversion on social relationships. It can be said that unconscious contents are transducted to skin through the tattoo. It is concluded that body marks help the individual on the appropriation of his own identity, contribute to the organization of psychological conflicts, and act as an important component on rites of passage. Finally, the tattoo can promote the self-knowledge / A presente pesquisa teve por objetivo investigar as representações de tatuagens e realizar uma análise simbólica das mesmas. Para tanto, foram selecionados 30 sujeitos através do procedimento Bola de Neve (15 homens e 15 mulheres), entre 22 e 40 anos de idade, que possuíam, no mínimo, 30% de sua superfície corpórea tomada por tatuagens. Na coleta de dados, foram utilizados uma entrevista semidirigida, a foto de uma tatuagem escolhida pelo participante e a associação-livre a partir desta imagem. Os dados foram analisados à luz da psicossomática junguiana. Os resultados permitiram observar 11 categorias: percepção de dor, aumento da autoestima, aumento do sentimento de atratividade, preconceito, arrependimento da escolha da imagem, fator religioso, independência financeira, momento de vida em que realizou a tatuagem escolhida, motivação para aquisição da tatuagem escolhida, repercussão na vida do indivíduo após a realização da tatuagem, símbolos e imagens escolhidas. Os resultados apontaram para a ocorrência de preconceito, influência de fatores religiosos e financeiros no ato de se tatuar, além da percepção de dor, ora relacionada a sacrifício, ora associada a comportamentos automutilantes. Observou-se que a tatuagem melhorou a autoestima e facilitou a extroversão nos relacionamentos sociais. Pode-se dizer que conteúdos inconscientes são transduzidos para a pele através da tatuagem. Concluiu-se que as marcas corporais auxiliaram o indivíduo na apropriação de sua identidade, contribuíram para a organização de conflitos psíquicos, e atuou como componente importante nos ritos de passagem. Por fim, a tatuagem pode promover o autoconhecimento

Neste estudo foi avaliado se a punção subaracnoidea sobre área tatuada provoca alterações inflamatórias agudas nas meninges e medula espinal e se pode evoluir para aracnoidite adesiva. Material e Método: 42 coelhos machos foram divididos, aleatoriamente, em 3 grupos de 14 animais: G1, punção subaracnoidea através de pele não tatuada e injeção de solução salina, cativeiro 30 dias; G2, punção subaracnoidea através de pele tatuada e injeção de solução salina, cativeiro 30 dias; G3, punção subaracnoidea através de pele tatuada e injeção de solução salina, cativeiro 360 dias. Os animais foram anestesiados com cloridrato de xilazina e cloridrato de cetamina e realizou se punção subaracnoidea, guiada por ultrassom, no espaço intervertebral entre S1 – S2, com injeção de solução salina 0,2mL. Após período de cativeiro os animais foram sacrificados, sob anestesia, por decapitação e a porção lombossacra da medula espinal foi removida para análise histológica. Resultados: Nenhuma alteração histológica foi encontrada nos animais do grupo 1. Onze animais do grupo 2 apresentaram focos de infiltrado inflamatório linfocitário perivascular na pia-máter e/ou aracnoide. No grupo 3, oito coelhos apesentaram infiltrado inflamatório linfocitário ou linfoplasmocitário perivascular e ...

In this study, we evaluated the possibility of puncture through tattooed skin determines acute inflammatory changes in the meninges and spinal cord and later evolve into adhesive arachnoiditis. Method: Forty-two male rabbits were randomized into 3 equal groups of 14: G1, spinal puncture through non-tattooed skin and saline solution injection; G2, spinal puncture through tattooed skin and saline solution injection, captive for 30 days; G3, spinal puncture through tattooed skin and saline solution injection, captive for 360 days. The animals were anesthetized and ultrasound-guided spinal puncture was performed in the intervertebral spaces between S1–S2. During the period of captivity, the animals were clinically assessed for sensitivity and motor function. After that, they were sacrificed and the lumbosacral portion of the spinal cord was excised for histological analysis. Results: No histological changes were found on group 1. Eleven animals from group 2 presented with foci of perivascular lymphocytic inflammatory infiltrate in the pia mater and/or arachnoid. In Group 3, 8 rabbits presented with inflammatory changes in the meninges, which were associated with thickening and/or adhesion of the pia mater and arachnoid in some cases and 5 rabbits presented only thickening of pia-mate...

Tattooing in the federal Indian boarding school system appears to have been common among the student body, but the practice is not well documented. A search of the literature on Native education, focusing on boarding schools, yielded only fragments of references to tattooing because there has been no substantive or detailed research on Indian boarding school tattoos. One brief narrative from Celia Haig-Brown (1988), however, illustrates the commonality and the dangers of tattooing. This study examines tattoos among female students who attended Indian boarding schools in the Southwest during the 1960s-1970s. The personal accounts of my mother's experience in tattooing at the Phoenix Indian School provide a baseline for this study. My study explores an undocumented area of boarding school history and student experiences. Many students from various tribes tattooed. The tattoos most often included small initials and markings, and my analysis concludes that the meanings were mostly related to resistance.

Magister Artium - MA / This study used a multisemiotic/multimodal discourse analysis approach to analyze tattoos of selected female students at three Western Cape Universities: the University of the Western Cape (UWC), the University of Cape Town (UCT), and Stellenbosch University (SUN). This study looked at the popular cultural practice of tattooing as a site for identity formation. The aim of this research project was to establish how popular culture is semiotized and resemiotized on corporeal landscapes. The focus was on the kind of semiotics that female students draw on when getting their tattoos, and also where they put these tattoos. The researcher intended to investigate the semiotics of female bodies within the broader field of linguistic landscaping, with a specific look at corporeal linguistic landscapes (Peck & Stroud, 2015). This research was also interested in establishing whether the historical background of each university has an influence on the student population, and subsequently, the tattoos they choose to inscribe on their bodies. This study sought to answer whether there are similarities and/or differences in the tattoos the participants chose across the different campuses and to what effect the social context affects the type of tattoos they chose. All participants were selected via purposive sampling. This means that only those with visible tattoos were approached, as they met the criteria described above (cf. Patton, 1990; Kumar, 1999). Methodologically, interviews as well as text data collection were used to collect the data. In addition, a multimodal text analysis was used as the tattoos were read as texts. Among others, the findings indicated that female participants negotiate their femininity by acquiring traditionally feminine tattoo designs, relatively small in size, which are typically placed where they can be concealed easily. This in contrast with male tattoo designs which tend to be bigger and more visible. It was found that there was preference for solitary texts designs across the three campuses followed by a combination of text and image. In terms of agency, it was found that participants were agentive by being able to control who read and how others read their bodies. The study concludes that women are mindful of their female identity when they choose the designs, sizes and placements of their tattoos. It was found that they typically defy social norms through getting tattoos, but at the same time adhere to social (and feminine) norms by using small tattoos emplaced in hidden body spaces. This means there is a restriction on who is allowed to consume the tattoos. This study adds to a deeper understanding of tattooing as popular culture at universities in post-apartheid South Africa. It also contributes to recent development in corporeal linguistic landscapes studies. In turn, it offers a profound understanding of the concept of ‘skinscapes,’ which allows for a deeper understanding of how female bodies are ‘authored’ by the tattooee as well as how they are ‘read’ and consumed by onlookers.

Para avaliar a eficiência da técnica do retalho em fechadura associada à pigmentação por tatuagem na reconstrução do complexo aréolo-papilar, foram estudadas 22 pacientes mastectomizadas que haviam sido submetidas à reparação mamária. Realizada a restauração dos complexos com a técnica proposta, medidas das projeções das papilas foram feitas em vários períodos até 18 meses de pós-operatório. A qualidade das pigmentações foi mensurada com notas de 0 a 3, dadas pelas pacientes e pelo cirurgião. Verificou-se uma perda da projeção da papila a aproximadamente 41,50% da projeção inicial. A média das notas atribuídas às tatuagens pelas pacientes e pelo cirurgião foram respectivamente de 1,72 e 1,44 (correspondendo à perda de tonalidade dos complexos) / In order to evaluate the efficiency of nipple areola complex reconstruction using the keyhole flap technique plus tattoo pigmentation, 22 patients who were submitted to mastectomy and breast repair were studied. After the restoration of the complexes with the proposed technique, nipples projection were measured during several periods until the 18th month after surgery and the tattoo quality was evaluated using grades from 0 to 3, which were given by the patients and by the surgeon. A loss of nipple projection to 41,50% of the initial projection was observed. The averages of the grades attributed respectively by the patients and the surgeon to the tattoos were 1,72 and 1,44 (corresponding to the loss of shade of the complexes)

Master of Arts / Department of Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work / Robert K. Schaeffer / In recent years body modification practices such as the arts of tattooing and body piercing have experienced an increase in popularity. A close examination of previous research conducted on the topic revealed a dichotomous categorization of these practices as either acts of deviance or self-expression. In an effort to add to the research that strives to portray 'body art' as a means of identity formation, the current study took a qualitative approach to the examination of body modification practices and the individuals who participate in them. Throughout 2007, fifteen in-depth interviews were conducted with college-age individuals who had at least one visible piece of 'body art,' and were currently living in or around Manhattan, Kansas. An emphasis was placed on what motivated the individuals to participate in the arts of tattooing and/or body piercing and how they felt the physical alteration of their body had affected their subsequent social interactions and identity. A careful review of the interview transcripts revealed that the respondents had chosen to participate in body modification practices for a variety of reasons. Nine analytical categories were then created in an attempt to explain the key motivations for their participation in these practices and ultimately call into question whether these practices should continue to be viewed as "deviant." The findings also demonstrated that there is still a certain amount of stigma associated with the arts of tattooing and body piercing, especially within the workplace. Although some businesses and organizations require their employees to keep their artwork concealed during business hours, others simply refuse to hire any individual who has a visible piece of 'body art.' Thus, the knowledge gained from the respondents and their experiences provided insight into the thought processes involved in the decision to participate in body modification practices as well as shed light on discriminatory, appearance-based hiring practices.
