Apesar da legislação governamental, dos programas de pagamento por qualidade dos laticínios e do maior consumo de antibióticos, na última década mais de 45% dos rebanhos leiteiros no Brasil tem apresentado CCS acima de 400.000, sem que este valor venha se reduzindo. Existem, no entanto, dentro de uma população submetida às mesmas condições, rebanhos com alta e com baixa CCS. Cabe, então, perguntar por que isto acontece. Dado que a mastite, causadora da alta CCS, é uma doença multifatorial, objetivou-se, neste trabalho, verificar as diferenças entre as propriedades com alta e com baixa CCS e o impacto do homem, tanto o produtor como o ordenhador, sobre a CCS do rebanho. Para isto foram aplicados questionários estruturados e listas de verificação em 68 fazendas participantes de um mesmo programa de pagamento por qualidade e da mesma região. Os rebanhos foram agrupados em fazendas com alta CCS, CCS > 700 mil/mL; e fazendas com baixa CCS, CCS < 250 mil/mL. Os resultados indicam que o homem é o principal diferencial entre os rebanhos. Que tanto o produtor como o ordenhador influencia a CCS do rebanho, sendo que as variáveis que melhor explicam a probabilidade de uma fazenda apresentar baixa CCS são a atitude do produtor e o comportamento do ordenhador com relação à mastite. O comportamento do ordenhador, por sua vez, depende em primeiro lugar dos meios que dispõe para fazer o trabalho e, em segundo lugar, da sua atitude. Portanto, para que se melhore a qualidade do leite, devem ser tomadas medidas direcionadas a modificar a atitude e o comportamento do homem frente à mastite. / Despite the government legislation, of the industry´s programs for milk quality based payment, and the increased use of antibiotics, during the last decade more than 45% of the Brazilian dairy farms have presented SCC over 400.000, and the value does not diminish. Notwithstanding, within the same population and under the same conditions, there are herds of low and high SCC. Then, it is necessary to ask why is this happening. Mastitis is the cause of the high SCC, and mastitis is a multifactorial disease, therefore, the purpose of this research was to find out the differences between the properties with high and low SCC, and find out how the producer and the milker impact the SCC of the herd. For that purpose, structured questionnaires and checklists were applied in 68 farms, which were participating of the same quality-based payment program and were located in the same region. The herds were grouped in cases: farms with high SCC, SCC > 700.000, and controls: herds with low SCC, SCC < 250.000. The results suggest that the man is the main differential between farms. That the producer and the milker impact the SCC of the herd, and that the variables that better explain the chance of a farm to present low SCC, are the producer´s attitude and the milker\'s behavior toward mastitis. The results also showed that the milker\'s behavior depends mainly of the means and secondly, of his attitude. Therefore, to improve the milk quality, must be taken measures to modify the attitude and behavior of the man.

The increase of divorce rate and infidelity with rapid economic development leads people to think about the influence of money on romantic relationships. Previous studies focused on the exploration of the relation between income and romantic relationships. They revealed that money facilitates the development of romantic relationships, but is also associated with relationship conflicts and crisis. However, little is known about how money is related to the occurrences of relationship problems. The current study centered on the negative effects of money on romantic relationships, and explored the possible psychological processes underlying these effects. I predicted that some money-related attitudes and feelings would exert a negative effect on individuals’ relationship satisfaction and investment, and increase the possibility of getting a better alternative by motivating them to approach the attractive opposite-sex, thus decreasing relationship commitment. I recruited Mainland Chinese college students and community samples involved in romantic relationships and conducted three studies under the framework of the investment model. A paper-and-pencil questionnaire was used in Study 1 to investigate the relationship between attitudes towards money and relationship investment. Results showed that people who assigned a high value to money underestimated their partners’ investment, and performed fewer pro-relationship behaviors. In Study 2 and Study 3, I used the priming method to trigger a relatively rich or poor feeling. Study 2 focused on respondents’ satisfaction with their partners and revealed that men feeling relatively rich were less satisfied with their partners’physical appearance than those feeling relatively poor. This difference was not significant for women. In Study 3, I examined how individuals thought and behaved in a situation with an opposite-sex attractive alternative. Results showed that men feeling relatively rich sat closer to the attractive alternative than men feeling relatively poor. Compared with men, women feeling rich reported less interest in dating the attractive alternative but sat closer to him than women feeling poor. Put simply, the importance that an individual places in money is negatively related to relationship investment, and the awareness of being rich may cause low satisfaction and increase an individual’s propensity to approach the alternative. According to the investment model, results from my studies demonstrate that these money-related attitudes and feelings could potentially exert a negative impact on romantic commitment, and this could be an important reason for the instability of romantic relationships. Findings from my studies also revealed some gender differences in the influences of money, indicating that the magnitude and direction of these influences could partially depend on which relationship partner owns the money. These findings have both conceptual and practical implications for the psychology of money and romantic relationships. / 近年來，中國經濟在飛速發展，與此同時，離婚率不斷上升，出軌事件日益增加，這讓人們開始思考金錢對愛情關係的影響。已有研究者探討了收入與愛情之間的關係，發現金錢可以促進愛情關係的發展，但是也與關係中的衝突和危機相關。金錢如何導致了關係問題的出現，有關這一問題的研究成果有限。因此，本研究以金錢對愛情關係的消極影響為焦點，探索這些影響背後可能的心理機制。我假設某些與金錢有關的態度和感受對關係滿意度和關係投資會有消極影響，並且，會增加個體獲得一個更好的新關係的可能性，根據投資模型(Rusbult, 1983)，關係承諾由此會被削弱。我以正處於愛情關係中的大學生和成人為被試，在投資模型的理論框架下實施了三個研究。研究一使用紙筆測驗考察了個體對於金錢的態度和關係投資之間的關係，結果表明，重視金錢的人往往會低估伴侶對關係的投入，並且做出較少的親關係行為。在研究二和研究三的實驗中，我使用了啟動方法引發相對富有或貧窮的感覺。研究二以對伴侶的滿意度為焦點，發現感覺相對富裕的男性對伴侶外貌的滿意度低於感覺貧窮的男性，對女性來說，這種差異不顯著。研究三的目的是檢驗在有吸引力異性在場的情境中個體的想法和行為。結果表明，與感覺相對貧窮的男性相比，感覺富有的男性選擇了距離有吸引力的異性比較近的座位。與感覺相對貧窮的女性相比，感覺富有的女性與有吸引力異性約會的興趣較小，但是選擇了距離其比較近的座位。簡言之，個體對金錢的重視程度與關係投資負相關，並且感覺富有可能會導致較低的滿意度和較高的接近其他異性的傾向。根據投資模型，可以認為這些與金錢有關的態度和感受可能會對關係承諾有消極影響，這可能是導致愛情關係不穩定的一個重要原因。本研究的結果揭示了一些有關金錢影響的性別差異，表明金錢影響力的大小和方向可能在某種程度上取決於在關係中哪一方擁有金錢。這些研究結果對於金錢心理學和愛情關係心理學都有重要的理論和實踐意義。 / Li, Yiming. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2014. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 89-101). / Abstracts also in Chinese. / Title from PDF title page (viewed on 20, December, 2016). / Detailed summary in vernacular field only.

[pt] Tendo em vista os reducionismos de cunho antropológico vividos na espiritualidade e na práxis dos cristãos na atual Igreja latino-americana, que tem como pressuposto uma cristologia que não une adequadamente o Cristo da fé com o Jesus da história, o crucificado com o ressuscitado, o presente trabalho tem o objetivo de investigar a relação entre cristologia e a antropologia no pensamento teológico de Wolfhart Pannenberg. A ênfase de nossa pesquisa consiste em refletir sobre os conteúdos de sua cristologia com o intuito de averiguar se eles nos possibilitariam uma articulação apropriada entre cristologia do alto e do baixo, propiciando a superação dos dualismos antropológicos vividos em nossa realidade eclesial. A reflexão cristológica pannenberguiana parte de baixo, mas tem como pressuposto a cristologia do alto, tornando possível uma cristologia articuladora entre a humanidade e a divindade de Jesus Cristo, entre o crucificado e o ressuscitado, oferecendo assim uma antropologia que integra as múltiplas dimensões do ser humano. Segundo Pannenberg, a cristologia tem uma compreensão prévia do homem e de Deus; contudo, essa compreensão é superada na medida em que, em última instância, falar de Deus e do homem significa falar de Jesus Cristo. Mediante sua vida, morte e ressurreição, Jesus nos revelou sua humanidade e divindade. Desse modo, pode-se afirmar que a humanidade e a divindade de Jesus são os fundamentos da antropologia cristã e que, entre cristologia e antropologia, existe uma profunda interação que estabelece entre ambas uma circularidade hermenêutica. / [en] Considering the reductionisms with anthropologic trait experienced in the Christian spirituality and praxis in the present-day Latin American Church - that has, as a presupposition, a christology which will not adequately unite the Christ of faith and the Jesus of history, the crucified and the resurrected one - the present work intends to inquire into the relation between christology and anthropology in the Pannenbergian theological thinking. Our research lays special emphasis on the reflection about the contents of his Christology with the intent of determining whether it is possible to suitably connect Christology from above and Christology from below, and therefore overcome the anthropological dualisms experienced in our ecclesiastic reality. Pannenbergs Christological reflection rises from below, but takes the Christology from above as a presupposition, thereby allowing of a Christology that combines the humanity and divinity of Jesus, the crucified and the resurrected one, and providing an anthropology that integrates the multiple dimensions of human beings. According to Pannenberg, Christology has a previous understanding of the human being and of God. But that understanding is ultimately overcome because speaking about God and man means to speak about Jesus Christ. Through his life, death and resurrection, Jesus revealed his humanity and divinity. Therefore, one could assert that Jesus humanness and divinity are the grounds of the Christian anthropology and that between Christology and Anthropology there is a deep interaction that establishes a hermeneutic circularity among them.

The major characteristics of Joyce's stylistic achievement in the organic unity of contents and expressions are, firstlyp the 'style* is not intended to reveal the author but the whatness, of his characters and subjects described and secondly Joyce's 'style' contains in itself particular meanings beyond the limits of the semantic and lexical contents of words. These features are more specifically defined as his use of the language for mimetic purposes to revealp suggest and represent consciousness (sometimes even unconscious and subconscious) mood, emotion mental patterns thought processes physical movement situation impression and sound effects through his command of the rhythmical syntactical and other grammatical, and phonological possibilities of his medium. In his earlier worksp Dubliners and A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man(and Stephen Hero for comparison with the Portrait) examination of the variety of his mimetic devices and their purposes contributes to the better comprehension of his works where each stylistic pattern, whether occurring in limited locality or throughout is woven into the whole design of the works. The main recurrent devices can roughly be distinguished as follows andt accordingly, Joyce's mimetic creative ability and variety in his earlier works are to be examined under the following classification: 1. Rhythmic (defined as 'repetition with variations') devices to represent and reveal certain concealed aspects and qualities of his characters; firstly, for characterization by means of special devices of appellations and secondly for revealing the preoccupations and concerns. II. Syntactical grammatical and rhythmic devices to represent, reflect and suggest firstly, his characters thought processes mental patterns emotion, mood and other psychological aspects, and secondly physical movement situation, atmosphere and impression. III. Phonological devices to imitate and suggest actual and imaginary sounds.

Em razão disso, necessita vincular-se afetivamente, ser reconhecido e valorizado, para que possa estar em harmonia com o outro e consigo mesmo. O amor, nesse contexto, traduz-se na diretriz de comunicação entre os seres, de modo que o direito de amar e de ser feliz se constitui em dever de compreender e estar com o outro, pois, somente assim, há a ruptura com a individualidade e com conceitos prévios. O conflito, a seu turno, é elemento inerente ao homem, que atua estimulando seu interesse e sua curiosidade, retirando-o de sua zona de conforto natural, para fornecer-lhe condições de promover mudanças individuais e sociais, pois, uma vez compreendido, o conflito tem o poder de se converter num instrumento de transformação de vida. É certo, porém, que no Estado Democrático de Direito, o conflito nascido da sociedade é regulado e tratado no Judiciário, onde é reduzido à figura do litígio, em que o Estado-Juiz aponta a lei ao caso concreto. Assim, diante da tentativa de agir sobre o conflito, ao invés de intervir sobre o sentimento das pessoas, o conflito nunca desaparece apenas se transforma. A presente pesquisa se propõe a buscar o tratamento alternativo para melhor lidar com os conflitos, analisando o modo tradicional de agir do Estado em confronto com o instituto da mediação como ética da alteridade. Por estas razões, será realizada uma releitura da mediação como forma ecológica de resolução de conflitos sociais e jurídicos, permitindo o reestabelecimento da comunicação entre as partes, sob a concepção Waratiana. A mediação é a arte de muito ouvir e pouco intervir. Justificase o estudo na necessidade de se obter uma visão contemporânea da ideia de justiça, investigando a efetividade do Direito e a aplicabilidade da mediação na prevenção e solução de conflitos através no consenso. O método utilizado é o fenomenológico como interpretação, para fazer uma reflexão sobre o ser humano e suas relações sociais conflitivas, e, também, analisar a problemática que surge diante deste modelo alternativo de justiça, fundamentado no consenso construído entre as partes através da comunicação. Na visão de Luis Alberto Warat, a mediação pode ser utilizada como instrumento de dissolução de conflitos em áreas diversas da sociedade, de conflitos familiares, passando pelas ciências humanas, até atingir os conflitos institucionais e comunitários em seus mais variados tipos. Para tanto, é necessária uma urgente modificação no sistema de soluções ou transformações de conflitos, de modo a desconstruir o senso comum teórico dos juristas, porquanto, mais que à decisão pura e fria, a solução do conflito deve apontar a uma melhor qualidade de vida das partes nele envolvido. / This research addresses the theme of man as a being who lives and shares different worlds, looking for his evaluative preferences, his tastes and skills. As a result, he needs to link affectively, be recognised and valued, so he can be in harmony with each other and with himself. Love, in this context, reflects in the communication guideline between human beings, in a way that the right of loving and being happy means a duty to understand and be with each other, because, only in this way, there is a break with the individuality and preconceptions. The conflict is a human being inherent element, which acts by stimulating his interest and his curiosity, removing him from his natural comfort zone, to provide him conditions for promoting individual and social changes, because, once understood, the conflict has the power to become a life transformation instrument. It is true, however, that on a Democratic State of law, a conflict born of society is governed and treated in the Judiciary, where is reduced to a dispute figure, in which the State-Judge applies the law by case. Thus, before the attempt to act on the conflict, rather than act on people’s feelings, the conflict never disappears, just changes itself. This research proposes to find out a solution or alternative treatment for conflict resolution, analyzing the State traditional way of acting in confrontation with the mediation institute as an alterity ethics. For these reasons, it will be held a re-reading of mediation as an environmentally-friendly way of social and legal conflict resolution, allowing the communication re-establishment between opponents, under the Waratiana design. Mediation is the art of more listening than talking. This study is justified on the need of getting a contemporary vision of the Justice idea, investigating the Law effectiveness and the mediation applicability in preventing and resolving disputes through consensus. The method used is the phenomenological as interpretation, to make a reflection on the human being and its controversial social relations, and, also, analyze the problems that arises on this alternative model of justice based on consensus built among opponents through communication. In Luis Alberto Warat’s vision, mediation can be used as an instrument of conflict dissolution in different areas of society, from family conflict, through the humanities, until institutional and community conflicts in their most varied types. To achieve this, it is necessary an urgent change in the solutions or transformation conflict system, in order to deconstruct the Jurists theoretical common sense, because, more than the decision itself pure and cold, the conflict solution must achieve a better life quality for people in it involved.

Therefore, we are going to analyze, at first, this Constitution, placing it in the Vatican Council II. It is in it that the Dei Verbum is elaborated. After, we are going to focus our research based on the analysis of the text from the Dei Verbum; we are going to strictly focus our research in the references that are done in it about the Spirit. In this way, our investigation, which is predominantly bibliographical, tries to show that, although there are few references about the Spirit in that document, when you read it, it is possible to characterize or identify the ways of relation between the Word and the Spirit. And even more if this reading is taken into account, as it is our purpose, that the Dei Verbum is essentially a document aimed to present a doctrine about God s Word revelation. We also verify that this doctrine has among its presumptions that the relation between the Word and the Spirit will cause the human s listening to the Word, conducting him to give an answer, which is also to look for listening it. From the genuine listening of God s Word which is revealed into the Spirit, and the man offers to do, they may depend on all the other ways of revelation in which the human being involves himself: the relation with himself, the relation with the others, the relation with the world, with the society and even the relation with the things. From the authentic man s ability of listening God s Word can depend on a new way of man s being and living in this world. Something that the Council has already said, namely it was presupposed in its deliberations. The Council spirit essentially proposed the society s updating relation, with the world and the science. And definitely it is the listening that could give the outlines of this relation / Constituição Dogmática Dei Verbum, do Concílio Vaticano II. Para isso, vamos, num primeiro momento, nos deter na análise dessa Constituição situando-a no contexto do Vaticano II. É ali que a Dei Verbum é elaborada. Em seguida e com base na análise do texto da Dei Verbum, focaremos nossa pesquisa estritamente nas referências ao Espírito ali feitas. Neste sentido, nossa investigação, de cunho predominantemente bibliográfico, procura mostrar que, embora sejam pouco numerosas as referências ao Espírito naquele documento, em sua leitura é possível caracterizar ou identificar as formas de relação entre a Palavra e o Espírito. E ainda mais se nessa leitura for levado em conta, como é nosso propósito, que a Dei Verbum é essencialmente um documento voltado para expor uma doutrina sobre a revelação da Palavra de Deus. Verificamos também que essa doutrina tem entre seus pressupostos que a relação entre a Palavra e o Espírito provocará a escuta do ser humano à Palavra, levando-o a dar, por sua vez, uma resposta, que é a de também buscar escutá-la. Da genuína escuta da Palavra de Deus que se revela no Espírito, à qual o homem se dispõe, podem depender todas as outras formas de relação em que o ser humano se envolve: a relação consigo mesmo, a relação com o(s) outro(s), a relação com o mundo, com a sociedade e até a relação com as coisas. Da autêntica capacidade do homem de escutar a Palavra de Deus pode depender um novo modo de ser e de viver do homem neste mundo. Algo que o próprio Concílio já aventava, ou melhor, estava pressuposto em suas deliberações. O espírito conciliar propunha essencialmente a atualização da relação com a sociedade, com o mundo, com a ciência. E certamente é a escuta que daria os contornos dessa relação

Thus, it seeks to discover, describe and analyze how the experiences of parental care have repercussions in the material life conditions: organization, routine and daily home actions, work and play with their children and evaluate motivations, problems, care consequences and loving relationship between parents and sons. The methodology is the qualitative approach to reality based on thematic oral history, from three men-parents with children that make part of the Musical Inclusion Program Guri Santa Marcelina (GSM). As a result, it is possible to say that, in Brazilian society, there are men with very different education, age groups and social levels, who choose to be part of parenting. The act of caring for children is a difficult, but pleasant task, not restricted to supplying basic material needs. In the view of respondent parents-men, care is the expression of love with commitment in all processes of human life / Esta pesquisa tem o objetivo de entender como os homens-pais, na dinâmica familiar da sociedade brasileira contemporânea, vivenciam o exercício do cuidado com os filhos. Assim, busca conhecer, descrever e analisar como as experiências do cuidado paterno vêm repercutindo nas condições materiais de vida: organização, rotina e ações cotidianas da casa, trabalho e lazer com seus filhos e avaliar motivações, dificuldades, consequências do cuidado e relação amorosa entre pais e filhos. A metodologia consiste na abordagem qualitativa da realidade com base na História Oral Temática, a partir de três homens-pais com filhos inseridos no Programa de Inclusão Musical Guri Santa Marcelina (GSM). Como resultados, é possível dizer que, na sociedade brasileira, surgem homens com escolaridade, faixas etárias e níveis sociais bastante distintos, que optam por fazer parte da criação dos filhos. O ato de cuidar dos filhos é tarefa difícil, mas prazerosa e não se restringe a suprir necessidades básicas materiais. Na visão dos homens-pais entrevistados, o cuidado é expressão do amor com comprometimento em todos os processos da vida humana

Using Analytical Psychology as a theoretical basis, the present study aimed at clarifying and understanding the meanings that the man, who does not work, nor has an income of his own, attributes to himself, to his situation and to the social expectations related to working. Another objective was to elucidate which would be, in that case, the existing factors of investment and/or disinvestment in the work. Therefore, the study explored subjective aspects, using the qualitative approach and employing the Life History interview as a research tool. The research included four participants living in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The inclusion criteria required that the participants be men, in the age group of approximate 30 years, without any paid work nor any type of income for at least five months, and financially dependent on their family members or spouses. The analysis of the narrative consisted in the definition of themes, sub-themes and units of meaning characteristic to each discourse which were later associated with each other, based on central ideas, that were interpreted and articulated with the Jungian theory. The results show that the perception of work is an elementary configuration in the life trajectory. Work may signify a constant obligation –an imposition that endures –or be a meaning in transformation–leading to resignifications. The association between work and identity affirmation–as well as conscious and unconscious motivations -stands out. The research also made it possible to infer the existence of complexes resulting from the work experience. The survey of the subjective experiences linked to an increasingly prevailing conjuncture in the current society points to the intense affective load related to work. In this context, the assistance of the clinical psychologist becomes relevant / No Brasil, a carência de pesquisas em psicologia clínica específicas sobre o homem que não trabalha e não tem renda própria torna esse um tema relevante para estudos e reflexões. Utilizando a Psicologia Analítica como fundamentação teórica, o presente trabalho teve por objetivo esclarecer e compreender os significados que o homem que não trabalha e não tem renda própria atribui a si mesmo, à sua situação e às expectativas sociais referentes ao trabalho, bem como elucidar quais seriamos fatores de investimento e/ou desinvestimento no trabalho. Para tanto, buscou-se apreender aspectos subjetivos, utilizando o enfoque qualitativo, com a entrevista de História de Vida como instrumento de investigação. A pesquisa foi realizada com quatro participantes residentes no estado de São Paulo e teve como critérios de inclusão que os participantes fossem homens, na faixa etária aproximada de 30 anos, estando sem trabalho remunerado e sem nenhum tipo de renda há, no mínimo, cinco meses, e sendo financeiramente dependentes dos seus familiares ou cônjuges. A análise da narrativa consistiu na definição de temas, subtemas e unidades de significado, característicos de cada discurso, que foram, posteriormente, associados entre si, a partir de ideias centrais, interpretadas e articuladas com a teoria junguiana. Os resultados apontam que a percepção do trabalho revela-se como uma configuração elementar na trajetória de vida. O trabalho pode ter o sentido de uma obrigação constante –uma imposição que perdura –ou se apresentar como um significado em transformação –levando a ressignificações. Destaca-se a afirmação da identidade assim como motivações conscientes e inconscientes associadas ao trabalho. A pesquisa possibilitou, ainda, inferir a existência de complexos decorrentes da vivência do trabalho. O levantamento das experiências subjetivas vinculadas a uma conjuntura cada vez mais presente na sociedade atual aponta para a intensa carga afetiva relacionada ao trabalho. Nesse contexto, o auxílio do psicólogo clínico se faz pertinente
