Estudo sobre as associações semânticas de palavras em crianças, adultos jovens e idosos

Zortéa, Maxciel January 2010 (has links)
Este trabalho investigou diferenças entre grupos etários distintos nas associações semânticas de palavras em três estudos. O primeiro buscou apresentar e discutir pesquisas que avaliaram a organização e processamento léxico-semânticos entre grupos de crianças, adultos e idosos. O segundo comparou as associações semânticas de palavras entre 247 crianças de 3ª série, 108 adultos jovens universitários e 57 idosos. O terceiro analisou comparativamente os grafos computacionais das associações semânticas de palavras entre 57 crianças de 3ª série, 57 adultos jovens universitários e os 57 idosos supracitados. Nos estudos empíricos observou-se que a força de associação entre alvo e associada mais frequente foi maior para as crianças do que para adultos e idosos. Os tamanhos de conjunto significativo e total dos alvos foram, em média, menores para os idosos e o índice de diversidade de respostas foi maior no grupo dos adultos. A modelagem de grafos indicou que crianças possuem redes de associação de palavras com maiores distâncias entre os nós e menor número de nós, ligações e agrupamentos. Adultos e idosos apresentaram redes com estruturas semelhantes. Assim, entende-se que essas associações sofrem reestruturações e ajustes da infância para a idade adulta e que na velhice ocorrem apenas mudanças quantitativas. Limitações e implicações dos estudos para a área são discutidas. / This research investigated differences in three age groups on semantic word associations in three studies. The first one aimed to present and discuss research that investigated the organization and processing of semantic elements in children, adults, and elderly. . The second one compared semantic word associations among 247 third grade children, 108 young college students adults, and 57 elderly. The third study compared semantic associations through graph analysis of 57 third grade children, 57 college students adults, and the 57 elderly cited above. The empirical studies demonstrated that the strength of the first associate to each target was higher for children compared to adults and elderly. The target’s total and meaning set sizes were lower for elderly and the response’s diversity index was higher for adults. Graph analysis suggested that children have semantic word association’s networks with greater inter-node distances and less number of nodes, connections, and clusters. Adults and elderly showed networks with similar structures. It was hypothesized that these associations pass by restructuring and tuning processes from childhood to adulthood and that after the 60 years old only quantitative changes occur. Limitations and contributions to the field are discussed.

Altersunterschiede in der Empathie: Multidirektional und eine Frage des Kontexts?

Wieck, Cornelia 08 January 2015 (has links)
Empathie wird als ein multidimensionales Konstrukt verstanden, welches kognitive Aspekte wie empathische Akkuratheit (die Fähigkeit, die Emotionen einer anderen Person akkurat zu erken-nen) als auch affektive Aspekte wie Emotionskongruenz (die Fähigkeit, die Emotionen anderer zu teilen) und Mitgefühl (die Fähigkeit, ein Gefühl von Sorge für diese Person zu erleben) umfasst (z.B. Davis, 1994; Eisenberg & Fabes, 1990). Ziel der Dissertation war es zu einem umfassenden Verständnis altersbezogener Unterschiede in diesen drei Empathiefacetten beizutragen. Ausgehend von der Überlegung, dass empathische Akkuratheit wesentlich von alterssensitiven kognitiven Prozessen determiniert wird (z.B. Adolphs, 2002), während affektive Empathiefacetten vor allem altersfreundliche emotionsregulatorische Voraussetzungen haben (z.B. Eisenberg, 2000), wurde vermutet, dass empathische Akkuratheit Altersdefizite aufweist, während Gefühlskongruenz und Mitgefühl altersbezogene Zugewinne zeigen. Da Evidenz dafür vorliegt, dass altersbezogene Defizite in unterschiedlichen kognitiven und emotionalen Leistungsbereichen reduziert werden, wenn die Aufgabe eine besondere Bedeutung für Ältere hat (z.B. Hess, Rosenberg & Waters, 2001; Kunzmann & Grühn, 2005), lag ein weiteres Ziel der Studie darin, zu überprüfen, ob Altersunterschiede in der Empathie durch die Altersrelevanz der Aufgabe moderiert werden. Grund für diese Annahme liefert das Modell der selektiven Optimierung mit Kompensation (z.B. Baltes & Baltes, 1990) sowie die Selective Engagement Theorie (Hess, 2006), die übereinstimmend po-stulieren, dass Personen mit zunehmendem Alter dazu tendieren mit den ihnen zur Verfügung stehenden Ressourcen sparsam umzugehen und diese primär in Bereichen einsetzen, die sie für relevant halten. Basierend auf diesen Überlegungen wurde vermutet, dass Altersdefizite in empathischer Akkuratheit weniger wahrscheinlich sind, wenn die Aufgabe von hoher Relevanz für Ältere ist; in der Emotionskongruenz sollten sich die Altersgewinne in den für Ältere relevanten Aufgaben sogar vergrößern. Da erste Evidenz dafür vorliegt, dass Altersunterschiede im Mitgefühl nicht durch die Altersrelevanz moderiert werden, wurde vermutet, dass Ältere ein höheres Ausmaß an Mitgefühl berichten – unabhängig von der Relevanz der Aufgabe. Zur Überprüfung der Hypothesen wurden 101 jungen und 101 älteren Erwachsenen Filmausschnitte präsentiert, in denen eine junge oder eine ältere Person ein autobiografisches, für ihre Altersgruppe relevantes oder altersneutrales Erlebnis schilderte, und dabei echte Emotionen wiedererlebte. Zur Erfassung empathischer Fähigkeiten sollten die Teilnehmer mithilfe einer Emotionsadjektivliste angeben, in welchem Ausmaß die gezeigte Person sowie sie selbst jedes dieser Gefühle erlebt haben. Erwar-tungsgemäß zeigten sich für die Filme ohne besondere Altersrelevanz negative Altersunterschiede in empathischer Akkuratheit, während Gefühlskongruenz und Mitgefühl Altersgewinne aufwiesen. Wie angenommen wurden Altersdefizite in empathischer Akkuratheit durch die Altersrelevanz der Aufgabe moderiert; Ältere erzielten die gleiche Leistung wie Jüngere, wenn das geschilderte Thema von hoher Relevanz für sie war. Hingegen zeigte sich keine Moderation der Altersunterschiede für Emotionskongruenz. Wie erwartet erlebten Ältere mehr Mitgefühl als Jüngere – unabhängig von der Aufgabenrelevanz. Zusammengenommen sprechen die Befunde dafür, dass Altersunterschiede in der Empathie multidirektional und kontextabhängig verlaufen.

Gender differences in usage of bitch and cunt across time : An analysis of findings in the BNC1994 and the BNC2014

Siikavaara, Josefina January 2021 (has links)
This essay presents a study on gender differences with a focus on swearing and taboo language, based on findings from the BNC1994 and the BNC2014. Bitch and cunt are two words that are linked to the female gender, but previous research has shown that they are used differently by men and women. The usage of the words differs in terms of frequency, but it has also been suggested that men and women tend to differ in the way they aim their usage of the words, whether the usage is directed toward men or women. The aim of the study is to analyse both corpora in order to find out how the usage of the words differs between men and women in different age categories, and how it has changed across time. Previous research on swearing, in connection to gender and age, is presented as well as a historical background of the words. The results show that the usage of bitch has increased but the usage of cunt has decreased. However, there are findings in the results that show that in addition to the change in frequency there has also been a change regarding how men and women tend to aim their usage of the words. Hopefully, the findings in this study could shed more light on the topic on gender differences and swearing.

Cyber-vettings etiska dilemma i rekryteringsprocesser : En komparativ fallstudie mellan yngre och äldre rekryterares syn på fenomenet / Cyber-vettings ethical dilemma in recruitment processes : A comparative case study between younger and older recruiters' view of the phenomenon

Fatrous, Alain, Scherling, William January 2023 (has links)
Bakgrund: Felrekryteringar är ett återkommande företagsekonomiskt problem, där organisationer får stå för dyra konsekvenser när de inträffar. Det finns olika metoder för att undvika felrekryteringar och således har ett fenomen vid namn cyber-vetting fått större uppmärksamhet, vilket är att rekryterare granskar kandidaters sociala medieprofiler för att få en bättre förståelse av kandidaterna. Cyber-vetting medför ett etiskt dilemma, där vissa menar på att det är oetiskt att gå in i människors privata sfär, medan andra i stället menar på att det är nödvändigt att arbetsgivaren får en helhetsbild av kandidaterna som söker.  Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva yngre och äldre rekryterares eventuella likheter och skillnader i deras syn på cyber-vetting, samt deras etiska ståndpunkt kring användandet av fenomenet.  Metod: Studien har innehaft en induktiv ansats. För att kunna beskriva yngre och äldre rekryterares syn på fenomenet, har en kvalitativ komparativ fallstudie utförts, där insamlingsmetod varit semistrukturerade intervjuer. En tematisk analys har genomförts som grundar sig på kvalitativ empiri. Då studien är komparativ genomfördes två separata tematiska analyser, en för yngre och en för äldre.  Slutsats: Studiens slutsats är att det finns både likheter och skillnader mellan yngre och äldre rekryterare i både användandet av cyber-vetting och om de finner det etiskt korrekt eller ej. Interna konflikter med moraliska resonemang, ligger till grund för deras åsikt i frågan och berör fler faktorer än enbart det faktum att rekryteraren har en viss ålder. / Background: Recruitment errors are a recurring business problem, with organizations facing costly consequences when they occur. There are various methods for avoiding recruitment mistakes and thus a phenomenon called cyber-vetting has gained more attention, whereby recruiters review candidates' social media profiles to gain a better understanding of the candidates. Cyber-vetting poses an ethical dilemma, with some arguing that it is unethical to go into people's private sphere, while others argue that it is necessary for the employer to get a complete picture of the candidates applying.  Purpose: The aim is to describe younger and older recruiters' views on cyber-vetting and their ethical stance, and to compare possible similarities and differences.  Method: The study has had an inductive approach. To describe younger and older recruiters' views on the phenomenon, a qualitative comparative case study has been conducted, where the collection method has been semi-structured interviews. A thematic analysis has been conducted based on qualitative empirical data. As the study is comparative, two separate thematic analyses were conducted, one for younger and one for older people.  Conclusion: The study concludes that there are both similarities and differences between younger and older recruiters in both the use of cyber-vetting and whether or not they find it ethically correct. Internal conflicts with moral reasoning underlie their opinion on the matter and involve more factors than just the fact that the recruiter is of a certain age.
