Our Veils Anticipate Our Shrouds: Eroticism in the Films of Catherine BreillatRichter, Nicole Marie 15 May 2009 (has links)
This dissertation is an authorship study of the controversial contemporary French film director Catherine Breillat. Using screen captures to provide visual evidence for the philosophical and theoretical perspectives staked out by Breillat, I perform close analysis of the following six films: Une Vrai Jeune Fille (1976), 36 Fillette (1988), Romance (1999), À Ma Soeur (2001), Brève Traverseé (2001), and Anatomie de L'enfer (2004). Using theory only to supplement interpretations, I draw on the work of George Bataille, Stanley Cavell, and Slavoj Zizek. Breillat's films work through a series of important philosophical ideas integral to an account of eroticism: the paradox of speaking about silence; achieving purity through an encounter with disgust; the singularity of individual desire; the split in identity between the mind and the body; the relationship between sex and death; the relationship between the taboo and transgression; and the violence of female desire. Breillat's films encourage viewers to alter their thinking about sexuality and liberate themselves to lead a more fully erotic life. The capacity of Breillat's films to free eroticism is their most important contribution not only to film history, but also to the totality of human experience.

Betydelsen av fysisk aktivitet för att lindra depressiva besvär hos ungdomarAndersson, Lina, Tallberg, Madeleine January 2013 (has links)
Syfte: Att utifrån litteratur belysa betydelsen av fysisk aktivitet för att lindra depressiva besvär hos ungdomar. Design: Studien har utförts som en litteraturöversikt. Metod: Litteratur som publicerats mellan 2001-2012 söktes fram i databaserna PsycINFO och CINAHL. Sammanlagt 14 vetenskapliga artiklar har granskats och använts i litteraturöversikten. Resultat: Fysisk aktivitet har visat sig ha en positiv effekt på depression hos ungdomar. Fysisk aktivitet visade på en dämpande effekt på depressiva symtom, och påvisade att viktiga effekter av fysisk aktivitet ger en lindring av depressiva symtom. Skillnader mellan yngre tonåringar och äldre tonåringar är att de yngre tenderar att ha högre deltagande i fysisk aktivitet gentemot de äldre, varav mängden fysisk aktivitet minskar från de tidiga tonåren till de äldre. Familjefaktorer har ett starkt samband med fysisk aktivitet. Ungdomar som har en god relation med sina föräldrar har också ett större deltagande i olika fysiska aktiviteter. Flickor löper större risk än pojkar att drabbas av depression. Förebyggande strategier avseende fysisk aktivitet kan vara framgångsrika, och det är viktigt att ha fokus på ungdomar med en historia av psykisk ohälsa och hälsoriskbeteenden för att minska risken för fortsatt utveckling av psykiska problem. Slutsats: Depression hos ungdomar skapar en sämre livskvalitet. Fysisk aktivitet är en viktig del av välmåendet och bör framhävas i relation till psykisk ohälsa hos unga. Att uppmärksamma flickors tendenser till ett sämre mående är en viktig del i omvårdnadsarbetet. Det är viktigt att som sjuksköterska ha vetskap om sambandet mellan fysisk aktivitet och depressiva symtom för att kunna arbeta preventivt och applicera kunskapen i det dagliga arbetslivet och i möten med ungdomar.

Deviance as an antecedent and consequence of early transitions to adulthood: mediating effects and moderating conditionsHalim, Shaheen 29 August 2005 (has links)
Drawing from concepts in criminological literature and sociological life-course
perspective literature, data from adolescent and young adult measurements collected as
part of a longitudinal panel study conducted on a cohort from Harris County, Texas,
were used to estimate Structural Equation Models, testing the unmediated and mediated
relationships between adolescent deviance, early timing of transitions to adult roles, and
adult deviance. First, a simplified three latent variable model was estimated using the
full sample (N= 3,379) to examine direct associations among adolescent deviance, early
transitions to adulthood, and adult deviance while controlling for prior involvement in
deviant behavior in adolescence. An expanded seven latent variable model was then
estimated adding mechanisms in adolescence through which the relationships previously
observed in the simplified model are mediated. Lastly, both the simplified and expanded
models were estimated on eight subgroups in the sample to examine whether the
relationships observed for the full sample are moderated by gender, race/ethnicity,
paternal level of education, and expectations for future failure in conventional adolescent
roles. For the full sample, the simplified model produced significant direct relationshipsbetween adolescent deviance and early transitions to adulthood, and between early
transitions to adulthood and adult deviance. When this simplified model was estimated
on the eight subgroups, the first relationship remained stable for each of the eight
moderating subgroups, while the second relationship did not. When several intervening
variables were added between adolescent deviance and early transitions to adulthood in
the expanded model, the parameters added to the model using the intervening variables
formed a chain of significant direct relationships fully mediating the relationship
between adolescent deviance and early transitions to adulthood for the full sample. This
chain of significant direct relationships remained stable for five of the eight subgroups,
and the three subgroups that did not experience full mediation underwent great
attenuation of the relationship. These intervening variables offer avenues for altering the
trajectory of behavior seen in the simplified model.
