Foram entrevistados individualmente quatro casais, que tinham registro policial de ocorrência de agressão física do marido contra sua parceira e histórico de violência conjugal, utilizando-se um instrumento com duas partes: a primeira recolheu dados sócio-demográficos dos entrevistados e a segunda, composta por um roteiro de entrevista, investigou as concepções dos participantes sobre homem, mulher e relacionamento conjugal. Os dados foram organizados através da utilização do software Alceste (Analyse Lexicale par Contexte d um Ensemble de Segments de Texte) e da Análise de Conteúdo. Os resultados demonstraram a concordância entre os cônjuges em dois pontos relevantes: a) concepções tradicionais de gênero que guiam as práticas domésticas e também o relacionamento do casal e, b) compreensão de que as ocorrências de violência são decorrentes da busca dos maridos pelo controle dos comportamentos das esposas, entendidos por eles como errados ou inadequados. Esses comportamentos têm em comum o fato de ameaçarem o padrão hegemônico de masculinidade e negarem, de algum modo, a concepção tradicional e naturalizada de mulher, como o acesso ao ambiente público por meio do trabalho assalariado. As esposas detalharam o contexto dos episódios de violência, os tipos de agressões (física, psicológica e/ou sexual) e seus prejuízos físicos e emocionais. Já os homens negaram a ocorrência de violência sexual e minimizaram as agressões físicas e suas conseqüências, descrevendo as brigas como eventos com poucas ou efêmeras implicações para a esposa e seu relacionamento. Os resultados foram discutidos com base em dois conceitos principais, masculinidade hegemônica e empoderamento feminino, ressaltando-se a reação violenta dos maridos entrevistados frente aos sinais de autonomia de suas esposas e questões relativas ao prejuízo masculino e feminino ocasionado pela exclusão do homem das discussões sobre o empoderamento feminino. / This study investigates how gendering conceptions and practices affect couples conflicts and husband s physical, psychological or sexual violence against his partner. Four couples, which have police report of physical aggression perpetrated by husbands against their wives and an history of this kind of violence, were individually interviewed, based on a two-section instrument: the first part collected participant s socio-demographic data and, the second one, an interview script, aimed to investigate the participants conceptions about man, woman and couple relationship. Data were analyzed by using software Alceste (Analyse Lexicale par Contexte d um Ensemble de Segments de Texte) and Content Analysis. Results demonstrated the agreement between husbands and wives about two relevant points: a) traditional gender conceptions which guide domestic practices and the couple relationship and, b) comprehension that violence episodes result of husbands attempt to control female behaviors they understand as wrong or inadequate. These behaviors have in common the fact they threat the hegemonic model of masculinity and deny, someway, the traditional and naturalized conception of women, as the access to public domain as a result of paid work. Wives detailed the violence contexts, types of aggression (physical, psychological and/or sexual) and physical and emotional injuries. On the other hand, husbands denied occurrences of sexual violence and minimized physical aggressions and their consequences by describing fights as episodes of little or ephemeral implications to their wives and relationships. Results were discussed based on two main concepts, hegemonic masculinity and female empowerment, emphasizing the violent reactions of the interviewed husbands when in confront with their wives signs of autonomy and approaches to male and female prejudices occasioned by man s exclusion from debates about female empowerment.

Entretanto, na maioria dos casos, esta é abordada apresentando apenas a mulher como vítima e homem como seu respectivo agressor. Assim a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo levantar e identificar dados em relação à VPI contra o homem, perpetrada por suas parceiras, no município de Juiz de Fora – MG. Foram utilizados dados qualitativos através de entrevistas semiestruturadas autoaplicadas em 40 profissionais e estagiários da psicologia e serviço social e transcrições de entrevistas individuais com 8 homens vítimas de suas parceiras. Para análise utilizou-se a estatística descritiva e a Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2011). Dos resultados encontrados 95.0% dos profissionais e estagiários informaram acreditar na possibilidade do homem ser vítima da VPI e 37.5% afirmaram já terem atendido homens nesta situação. Quanto aos homens vítimas de suas parceiras íntimas, a violência psicológica, o controle do comportamento e a violência física foram as categorias mais apontadas em relação à agressão sofrida. Através deste estudo, percebe-se a existência da VPI contra o homem no município de Juiz de Fora – MG e a necessidade de novos estudos que possam identificar e levantar mais dados quanto a este tipo de específico de violência. / The intimate partner violence (IPV) is a social phenomenon and a public health problem. However, in the most of cases, the violence is discussed only considering the women as victims and men as her respective aggressor. Thus this research aims to investigate and collect information about the intimate partner violence against man perpetrated by his partners in Juiz de Fora. We used qualitative data through self applied semi-structured interviews with 40 professionals and trainees of psychology and social work and singles interviews, recorded and transcribed with 8 male victims of IPV. For analysis, we used descriptive statistics and content analysis of Bardin (2011). Of the founded results 95.0% of professionals and trainees said has believed in the possibility of man to be a victim of IPV and 37.5% affirmed had already attended men in this situation. In relation to men who were victims of their partners, psychological violence, controlling behavior and physical violence were most frequently categories which have been mentioned relative to suffered aggression. Through this study, we notice the existence of IPV against men in the city of Juiz de Fora - MG and the necessity of new studies that should be identify more information on this specific type of violence.

A pesquisa tem como objetivo reformular uma base de dados, desenvolvida e utilizada pela equipe do Laboratório de Estudos da Conjugalidade (LEC): atendimento em Psicoterapia Breve. Esta base de dados informatizada é um instrumento que visa aprimorar a forma de registro de material clínico de atendimentos em psicoterapia breve para fins clínico-institucionais e de pesquisa o que, como decorrência, contribuirá também com o serviço de psicoterapia na clínica institucional. O projeto de pesquisa foi elaborado a partir da experiência da autora nas atividades clínicas que desenvolve como psicóloga na Clínica Psicológica do Instituto Sedes Sapientiae (ISS), mais especificamente no LEC. A autora realiza atendimentos em psicoterapia breve nas modalidades individual e casal, participa das supervisões e discussões de caso em grupo e de grupos de estudos com a equipe do referido Laboratório. Os atendimentos clínicos seguem a fundamentação teórica e técnica baseada principalmente nos autores: Winnicott, Malan, Gilliéron, Bergeret e Hegenberg. Utilizando como metodologia qualitativa a análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin e Turato, e tendo como documentos para análise os registros realizados pelos psicoterapeutas no período de outubro de 1999 a julho de 2004, foi realizada a sistematização e categorização dos registros. A pesquisa tem por foco os registros da fase inicial do processo de psicoterapia breve (avaliação inicial). Em função dos resultados obtidos aprimoramos o banco de dados já existente possibilitando a utilização dos respectivos registros clínicos para pesquisas quantitativas e qualitativas com apoio dos recursos da informática (desenvolvimento de software). A versão informatizada já se encontra disponível para fase de testes. / This research aims to exam and refine a set of data, developed and used by the staff of the Laboratório de Estudos da Conjugalidade: atendimento em psicoterapia breve (LEC). This computerized set of data is a tool which tries to improve the way the clinical material of the sessions of brief psychotherapy is recorded, making these reports able to be used in clinical-institutional work as well as in new researches; and, of course, this will contribute also to the work in the institutional clinic. This research was designed on the grounds of the author\'s experience in her activities as psychologist of the Clínica Psicológica do Instituto Sedes Sapientiae (ISS), particularly in the LEC. In her practice the author does brief psychotherapy - individual or with couples -, works in supervisions and discussions of cases in groups and attends lecture groups with the staff of the above mentioned LEC. In her practice the author uses mainly the technical and theoretical approaches of the following authors: Winnicott, Malan, Gilliéron, Bergeret and Hegenberg. By using as methodological framework the context analysis suggested by Bardin, and having as raw material for this investigation the reports made by the psychologists of the LEC between october/99 and july/04, we aim to systematize and ordinate the data. The focus of the research will be the records of the initial phase of the process of brief psychotherapy (preliminary evaluation). By the end of the research we expect to have refined the existing data permitting, from then on, the correct use of this set of records of clinical cases in new qualitative and quantitative researches with the support of modern techniques in informatics (developing of software).

Introdução: A infertilidade é uma condição que afeta, universalmente, um percentual expressivo (8-15%) dos casais da população, sendo esta, uma condição associada frequentemente, a um incremento nas taxas de disfunção sexual e desajuste conjugal. Objetivos: Avaliar a função sexual de mulheres com infertilidade conjugal e avaliar o risco para ansiedade e depressão em mulheres com infertilidade conjugal. Métodos: Estudo controlado com 280 mulheres em idade reprodutiva, sendo 140 atendidas no Setor de Reprodução Humana do Departamento de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo (FMRP-USP) e 140 controles recrutadas na população geral de Ribeirão Preto - SP. A função sexual foi avaliada pelo Índice de Função Sexual Feminina (IFSF), e o risco para ansiedade e depressão foi aferido pela Escala de Ansiedade e Depressão (HAD-A, HAD-D). Resultados: Participaram do estudo 280 mulheres, sendo 140 do Grupo Infértil (GI) e 140 do Grupo Controle (GC). Do GI, 104(74,29%) apresentavam infertilidade primária, e 36(25,71%) infertilidade secundária, por fator feminino em 64(45,71%), fator masculino em 38(27,73%) e, em ambos 35(25,54%) dos casos. Do GI, 64(45,71%) foram submetidas a FIV/ICSI. Houve diferença significativa entre os grupos em relação a mediana de idade (GI 36 [32-38]; GC 34 [31-37]), (p=0,02). Não houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao número de mulheres com menos de 40 anos e com idade maior ou igual a 40 anos (p=0,40). E também não houve diferença significativa entre os dois grupos em relação a idade dos parceiros, número de relações sexuais/semana, IMC, peso e estado civil. Houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao tempo de relacionamento (GI, 11,80 ± 4,84 anos (1,50-24) vs. GC, 10,40 ± 5,73 (0,50-26), p=0,03). Estratificando por tempo de relacionamento no GI 10(7,14%) tinham < 5 anos de relacionamento contra 27(19,29%) no GC e, no GI 130(92,86%) tinham > 5 anos de relacionamento contra 113(80,71%) do GC, (p<0,01). A análise do IFSF evidenciou risco para disfunção sexual em 47(33,57%) do GI, e em 49(35%) do GC (p=0,90) e não houve diferença significativa entre os domínios do IFSF, a não ser pela diferença encontrada no domínio excitação, que foi maior no GC (p=0,04). Não houve diferença entre os grupos em relação ao risco para ansiedade e depressão. Os fatores de risco para disfunção sexual (DS), ansiedade e depressão, nos dois grupos, ajustado para as variáveis: faixa etária, IMC, estado civil, tempo de relacionamento, escolaridade, gestação, anticoncepção, partos, psicoterapia, cigarro, álcool, faixa etária do parceiro, risco para DS, ansiedade e risco para depressão evidenciou que mulheres que apresentam risco para ansiedade tem maior risco para DS. Mulheres com risco para depressão evidenciaram risco aumentado para DS. A DS foi fator de risco para ansiedade e depressão. As mulheres casadas apresentaram menos risco para depressão do que mulheres amasiadas. Conclusão: As mulheres não apresentaram risco para disfunção sexual em relação aos controles. A ansiedade e depressão constituem risco para disfunção sexual nessa amostra. / Introduction: Infertility is a condition that affects, universally, a significant percentage (8- 15%) of couples. Infertility is often linked to an increase in sexual dysfunction rates and marital conflict. Objectives: To assess sexual function of infertile women and to assess the risk for anxiety and depression in infertile women. Methods: This is a controlled study with 280 women in reproductive age, being 140 women attended in Human Reproduction Sector of the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics of the Ribeirão Preto Medical School, University of São Paulo (FMRP-USP), and 140 controls recruited from the general population in Ribeirão Preto - SP. Sexual function was assessed by the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI), and the risk for anxiety and depression was measured by the Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD-A, HAD-D). Results: Twenty eight women participated in this study, being 140 women in infertile group (IG) and 140 controls (CG). In the IG, 104 (74.29%) had primary infertility, and 36 (25.71%) secondary infertility. In the entire sample female factor was evident in 64 (45.71%) and male factor in 38 (27.73%), and both 35 (25.54%) cases. In the IG, 64 (45.71%) underwent FIV / ICSI. There was a significant difference between groups in relation to median age (IG 36 [32-38]; CG 34 [31-37]) (p = 0.02). There was no significant difference between groups in the number of women = 40 years (p = 0.40). There was no significant difference between groups regarding the age of partners, number of sexual intercourse/week, BMI, weight and marital status. There was difference between groups regarding the time of relationship (IG, 11.80 ± 4.84 years (1.50 to 24) vs. CG, 10.40 ± 5.73 (0.50 to 26), p = 0.03). Stratifying for relationship time in IG 10 (7.14%) were < 5 years of relationship vs. 27 (19.29%) in the CG, and IG 130 (92.86%) had > 5 year relationship vs. 113 (80.71%) CG (p <0.01). The risk for sexual dysfunction was observed in 47 (33.57%) of the IG, and in 49 (35%) of the control group (p = 0.90). There was no significant difference between the majority scores of FSFI, but there was significant difference between groups regarding arousal domain, which was higher in CG (p = 0.04). There was no difference between groups regarding the risk for anxiety and depression. Risk factors for sexual dysfunction (SD), anxiety and depression in both groups, adjusted for the variables: age, BMI, marital status, length of relationship, education, pregnancy, contraception, birth, psychotherapy, cigarettes, alcohol, partner\'s age, risk for SD, anxiety and risk for depression showed that women who are at risk for anxiety have a higher risk for SD. Women at risk for depression, showed increased risk for SD. The SD was a risk factor for anxiety and depression. Married women showed less risk for depression than women who only live together with a partner. Conclusion: Infertile women showed no risk for sexual dysfunction compared to controls. Anxiety and depression are risk for sexual dysfunction in this sample.

A literatura indica que os genitores de filhos com SD apresentam bons níveis de satisfação conjugal e índices de ajustamento conjugal semelhantes àqueles com filhos com desenvolvimento típico (DT). Além disso, a relação fraternal nessas famílias tem sido descrita como sendo positiva, com características de amizade, afeto, companheirismo e sincronia. Há a tendência de o irmão com DT assumir a liderança durante os episódios interativos, apresentando comportamentos diretivos em relação ao irmão com SD. Este estudo teve como objetivo descrever a qualidade das relações conjugais e fraternais em famílias com filhos com SD e as possíveis associações entre a qualidade dessas relações, a partir da perspectiva sistêmica. Foram participantes 17 famílias, sendo quatro compostas por pai, mãe e um filho biológico com o diagnóstico de SD e 13 famílias compostas por pai, mãe, um filho biológico com SD e pelo menos um filho com DT. Os dados foram coletados na residência das famílias e incluíram os seguintes instrumentos e técnicas: Questionário de Caracterização do Sistema Familiar, Entrevistas semiestruturadas, Escala de Ajustamento Díadico, Observação das interações entre as díades conjugais com utilização do vídeo, Questionário de Irmãos e Questionário de Relações Fraternais. Os resultados demonstram que as relações conjugais são caracterizadas como amistosas e ajustadas, com bons níveis de consenso, coesão, satisfação e expressão de afeto. As interações são marcadas pela proximidade e pelo clima amigável entre o casal. Ambos os cônjuges tendem a participar de forma ativa e igualitária na discussão, valorizando e reconhecendo a posição e as ideias um do outro. Já as relações fraternais são caracterizadas pela afetuosidade, proximidade e companheirismo, com baixos níveis de conflitos e rivalidade. Os irmãos com DT assumem a postura de irmão mais velho e têm comportamentos de cuidado e proteção com o irmão com SD. Observou-se associação positiva entre a coesão diádica conjugal e a amorosidade/proximidade entre os irmãos. Ademais, as esposas de casais desajustados percebem um maior nível de rivalidade na relação fraternal de seus filhos. Já os irmãos nas famílias de casais desajustados avaliam sua relação com seu irmão com SD como tendo um maior nível de conflito do que aqueles nas famílias de casais ajustados. Destaca-se a importância da realização de estudos longitudinais que utilizem abordagem multimetodológica e que investiguem a inter-relação entre os diferentes subsistemas familiares para a melhor compreensão das relações desenvolvidas nas famílias de pessoas com SD. / The birth of a child with Down’s syndrome (DS) may have implications at family functioning and relationships established among family members. The literature indicates that parents of children with DS have good levels of marital satisfaction and similar levels of marital adjustment of parents of children with typical development (TD). In addition, the sibling relationship in these families has been described as positive, with characteristics of friendship, affection, companionship and synchrony. There is a tendency that the sibling with TD take the lead during the interactive episodes, presenting directive behaviors over the sibling with DS. This study aims to describe the quality of marital and sibling relationships in families with children with DS and the possible associations of the quality of these relationships, from the systemic perspective. The participants of this study were 17 families, four of them composed of father, mother and biological child with diagnosis of DS and 13 families composed of father, mother, biological child with SD and at least one child with TD. Data were collected in the families' homes and included these instruments and techniques: Questionnaire for Characterizing the Family System, semi-structured interviews, Dyadic Adjustment Scale, Observation of interactions between marital dyads using video technology, Sibling’s Questionnaire and Sibling Relationship Questionnaire. The results demonstrate that the marital relationships are characterized as friendly and adjusted, with good levels of consensus, cohesion, satisfaction and affectional expression. The interactions are marked by proximity and friendly atmosphere between the couple. Both spouses tend to participate actively and equitably in the discussion, valuing and recognizing one's position and ideas of each other. The sibling relationships are characterized by affection, closeness and companionship, with low levels of conflict and rivalry. The siblings with TD assume an older sibling's posture and have caring and protective behaviors with the sibling with DS. There is a positive association between dyadic conjugal cohesion and warmth/closeness between siblings. The wives of couples with inadequate adjustment perceive more rivalry in the sibling relationship of their children. Whereas the siblings in the families of couples with inadequate adjustment evaluate their relationship with their sibling with DS as having more conflicts than in families with adjusted couples. It is important to conduct longitudinal studies that use the multi-method approach and investigate the interrelationship between the different family subsystems to better understand the relationships developed in the families of people with DS.

Foi realizada na 1ª Delegacia de polícia de prevenção e repressão aos crimes contra a mulher, localizada na cidade do Recife/PE. Teoricamente se baseou na Teoria das Representações Sociais, desenvolvida por Serge Moscovici (2012), sob a perspectiva da abordagem culturalista de Denise Jodelet (1989). A estratégia metodológica utilizada foi a pesquisa qualitativa e os instrumentos de coleta de dados foram o diário de campo, desenvolvido através da observação não participante, e a entrevista semiestruturada. Para análise dos dados foi utilizada a Análise de Conteúdo Temática (BARDIN, 2009), seguindo as etapas operacionais: constituição do corpus, leitura flutuante, codificação, categorização e inferências. A pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, pautando-se na resolução 466/12, que orienta a pesquisa com seres humanos. A análise apontou que as mulheres que estão em situação de violência conjugal são representadas principalmente a partir de dois polos: “as vítimas e as verdadeiras vítimas”; apontando para os usos que são feitos da DM e para a forma como os/as policiais se pautavam frente a elas. Tais representações foram ancoradas e objetivadas em concepções ligadas à esfera biológica, social, emocional e de saúde. Foi observado que os/as policiais procuravam agir de forma neutra e imparcial em função deste pensamento, buscando não se envolver emocionalmente com estas mulheres para se proteger do impacto que esta vivência poderia gerar, e para não favorecer no seu atendimento nem às mulheres nem aos homens. Estes dados apontam que novos caminhos precisam ser traçados para que a mulher, ao acionar a DM, encontre acolhimento e possibilidades de uma vivência mais digna, longe da violência. Contudo, para que isto se torne uma realidade, a DM também precisa ser um espaço de realização para os/as policiais que nela atuam, cenário este que não foi percebido em função da precariedade que a DM apresenta e da absorção de demandas que deveriam ser trabalhadas por outros órgãos da rede de atenção à mulher. / The present research investigated the Social Representations (SR) of women in domestic violence situation of active police officers in the woman’s police station (WPS) of Recife. The survey took place in the 1st Police Station Precinct of Prevention and Repression of Crimes against Woman, located in the city of Recife - PE. The search was based on the Theory of Social Representations, developed by Serge Moscovici (2012), from the perspective of culturalist approach of Denise Jodelet (1989). The methodological strategy used was qualitative research and the data collection instruments was the field diary, developed through non-participant observation and semi-structured interview. For data analysis, we used the Thematic Content Analysis (BARDIN, 2009) following the following operating steps: formation of the corpus, floating reading, coding, categorization and inferences. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of Pernambuco, and is based on Resolution 466/12 that guides the research with human beings. The analysis showed that women who are victims of violence are represented mainly from two poles "victims and the real victims," pointing to the uses that are made of WPS, and how the police deals with them. These Social Representations were anchored and objectified in concepts the biological sphere, social, emotional and health. It was observed that guided by this thought the police sought acting neutrally and impartially, seeking not to get emotionally involved with these women, to protect against affectation that this experience could generate and not to favor in their treatment neither women nor men. These data point out that new ways need to be plotted for the woman, when contacting the WPS, instead of finding indifference, being welcomed and finding possibilities of a more dignified existence away from violence. However for this to become a reality, the WPS also needs to be a realization space, which was not seen due to the lack of structure that it presents and the absorption of demands that should be worked by other organs of the woman care network.

Les différentes recherches portant sur les homicides conjugaux, et plus spécialement des uxoricides, plus documentés parce que plus fréquents, apportent de nombreuses informations pertinentes concernant le contexte entourant l'homicide, la relation entre les conjoints et son évolution et même, parfois, sur l’enfance de l’homme qui a posé un tel geste sur sa conjointe ou ex-conjointe. Toutefois, des incohérences ont été relevées dans les écrits sur le sujet faisant qu’il est difficile d’identifier la dynamique qui conduit des hommes à tuer leur conjointe. Le déroulement de la vie des hommes ayant enlevé la vie de leur conjointe, c’est-à-dire les événements qu’ils ont vécus tout au cours de leur vie et qui ont pris un sens particulier pour eux, nous est apparue une avenue qui, à notre connaissance, n’aurait pas été étudiée. Il a dès lors été convenu que l’objectif principal de ce mémoire de maîtrise en criminologie consisterait à explorer s’il est possible d’identifier, dans la vie d’un échantillon d’hommes qui ont tué leur conjointe, un enchaînement d’événements qui pourrait contribuer à la compréhension de la dynamique conduisant à l’homicide conjugal. Plus précisément, il s’agissait d’identifier les perceptions qu’ont ces hommes des différents événements qu’ils considèrent comme ayant été marquants dans leur vie et les réactions qu’ont successivement produites ces perceptions. Le devis de cette étude est qualitatif. Dix hommes incarcérés forment l’échantillon. Tous ont été reconnus coupables du meurtre de leur conjointe ou ex-conjointe. Suite aux entrevues semi-structurées de type rétrospectif et thématique, une reconstitution des lignes de vie inspirée de la théorie de Agnew (2006) ainsi qu’une analyse thématique des récits recueillis ont été effectuées. Bien que les événements de la vie de chacun des hommes leur soient particuliers, il ressort néanmoins une structure commune aux lignes de vie. Cette structure est marquée d’un événement ou de conditions de vie marquants se rapportant à l’enfance, d’un événement porteur d’une remise en question survenue plus tard et d’un événement déclencheur conduisant au meurtre. L’événement porteur d’une remise en question paraît occuper une place centrale dans la vie des hommes participant à notre étude. Cet événement porteur d’une remise en question vient modifier les comportements et attitudes de l’homme manifestés subséquemment. Ainsi, à la lumière des résultats de cette recherche, il apparaît que l’ensemble du développement de la vie des hommes uxoricides, et plus spécialement les événements qu’ils identifient comme étant marquants, leur enchaînement et, surtout, leur façon de percevoir ces événements et d’y réagir doivent être pris en compte dans l’étude de la trajectoire qui a finalement abouti au passage à l’acte homicidaire. Autre fait à considérer, plusieurs des hommes interviewés ont mentionné qu’ils sentaient qu’un événement de la sorte se préparait dans leur vie. Ceci suggère une certaine prévisibilité de l’acte qui pourrait être perceptible dans le récit que font les hommes de leur vie et de leur perception d’eux en relation avec les éléments qu’ils identifient comme ayant été marquants pour eux au cours de celle-ci. Il reste toutefois beaucoup à faire dans cette découverte d’un outil de prévention de l’uxoricide. / The different research concerning domestic homicides contribute numerous information relative to the context surrounding the actual homicide, the relationship between the spouses and the evolution, and occasionally on the childhood of the man who committed such an act towards his spouse or ex-spouse. However, certain incoherence’s have been raised among the research making it difficult to identify the pattern which leads husbands to kill their wives. The development of the lives of the men, who have killed their spouses, more precisely the significant events in their lives, is an avenue, to our knowledge, that has not been studied. The main objective of this Masters memoir in the field of criminology aims to explore, from a sample of men who have killed their wives, the possibility of identifying the chain of events that could contribute to the understanding of the pattern which leads to domestic homicide. More precisely, it aims at identifying the perceptions that men have of different events that they consider significant and the reactions which were caused by the said perceptions. The methodology used in this study is qualitative. The sample consists of ten incarcerated men. They all have been found guilty of murdering their wives or ex-wives. Following the semi-structured interviews, which were retrospective and thematic, a reconstruction of their lives, inspired by Agnew’s (2006) theory, was conducted Finally, thematic analysis of the events were also conducted. Although the significant events for each subject have their own specific characteristics, a common structure among the life lines is apparent. This structure is marked by an event or living conditions which had an impact on the subjects during childhood, hence an event which led the subjects to question themselves later on and an event which triggered the behavior leading to the murder. The event leading to the subjects questioning themselves seems to be central in the lives of the men who participated in our study. This questioning modify’s the behaviors and the attitudes manifested by the men. In light of these findings, it appears that the entire development of the lives of the uxoricides men, and more precisely the events they identify as significant and their chain reaction and, especially their self-perception during these events and the way they react must be taken into account when looking at the trajectory leading up to the homicide. Another factor to consider, is that many of the men interviewed mentioned that they felt that a dramatic event was about to take place in their lives. This suggests a certain predictability of the act that could be perceptible from their self-perception. There remains however much to do, in terms of transforming this discovery into a prevention tool applicable to uxoricide.

La violence conjugale est un phénomène criminel fréquent au Québec. En 2008, les infractions commises en contexte conjugal représentaient plus de 20 % des crimes contre la personne signalés à la police (Ministère de la Sécurité publique, 2010). L’intervention policière et judiciaire en contexte conjugal est complexe, notamment en raison du lien unissant l’agresseur et la victime. Bien que le pouvoir discrétionnaire des intervenants judiciaires en contexte conjugal ait été grandement limité au cours des dernières décennies, ceux-ci bénéficient toujours d’une certaine latitude dans leur décision de poursuivre, ou non, différentes étapes du processus judiciaire. Au fil du temps, plusieurs études se sont intéressées aux éléments influençant la prise de décision en contexte conjugal. Cependant, celles-ci ne portent généralement que sur une seule étape du processus et certains facteurs décisionnels n’ont jamais été testés empiriquement. C’est notamment le cas des éléments liés aux stéréotypes de la violence conjugale. Certains auteurs mentionnent que les incidents qui ne correspondent pas au stéréotype de l’agresseur masculin violentant une victime qualifiée d’irréprochable et d’innocente font l’objet d’un traitement judiciaire plus sommaire, mais ces affirmations ne reposent, à notre connaissance, sur aucune donnée empirique. Cette étude tente de vérifier cette hypothèse en examinant l’impact de ces éléments sur cinq décisions policières et judiciaires. À partir d’une analyse de contenu quantitative de divers documents liés au cheminement judiciaire de 371 incidents commis en contexte conjugal sur le territoire du Centre opérationnel Nord du Service de police de la Ville de Montréal en 2008, la thèse examine l’utilisation du pouvoir discrétionnaire dans le traitement judiciaire de ces incidents. Elle comporte trois objectifs spécifiques. Le premier objectif permet la description du cheminement judiciaire des incidents commis en contexte conjugal. Nos résultats indiquent que ceux-ci font l’objet d’un traitement plus punitif puisqu’ils font plus fréquemment l’objet de procédures à la cour que les autres types de crimes. Cette judiciarisation plus systématique pourrait expliquer le faible taux de condamnation de ceux-ci (17,2 %). Le second objectif permet la description des principales caractéristiques de ces incidents. La majorité implique des gestes de violence physique et les policiers interviennent généralement auprès de conjoints actuels. La plupart des victimes rapportent la présence de violences antérieures au sein du couple et le tiers veulent porter plainte contre le suspect. Finalement, 78 % des incidents impliquent un agresseur masculin et une victime féminine et 14,29 % des victimes sont soupçonnées d’avoir posé le premier geste hostile ou violent lors de l’incident. Le dernier objectif permet l’identification des principaux éléments associés aux décisions prises en contexte conjugal. Les résultats confirment l’hypothèse selon laquelle les incidents n’impliquant pas un agresseur masculin et une victime féminine ou ceux dont les policiers soupçonnent la victime d’avoir posé le premier geste hostile ou violent font l’objet d’un traitement judiciaire plus sommaire. En outre, la majorité des facteurs décisionnels étudiés perdent de leur influence au cours du processus judiciaire et les décisions prises précédemment influencent fortement les décisions subséquentes. Finalement, le désir de porter plainte de la victime n’influence pas directement les décisions des intervenants judiciaires. / Conjugal violence is a frequent criminal phenomenon in the province of Quebec. In 2008, offences committed in conjugal context represented more than 20% of the crimes against the person reported to the police (Ministère de la Sécurité publique, 2010). Police and judicial intervention in conjugal context is complex, mainly because of the relationship existing between the aggressor and the victim. Even though the discretionary power of the judicial instances has decreased greatly over past decades in conjugal context, law enforcement agencies still benefits of a certain latitude in their decision to continue, or not, various stages of the legal process. Over time, several researches have studied police and legal decision-making in conjugal context. However, these various researches have generally studied only one stage of the judicial process and some decision-making factors have not been empirically tested. It is the case of the elements related to the stereotypes of conjugal violence. Some authors mention that the incidents which do not correspond to the stereotype of a male attacker using violence against an innocent female victim are subject to a more lenient judicial treatment, but these assertions are not based, to our knowledge, on any empirical data. This research will attempt to verify these assumptions by examining the impacts of these elements on five police and judicial decisions. By relying on a quantitative content analysis of various documents related to the judicial process of 371 incidents committed in conjugal context on the territory of Montreal’s police department Centre Opérationnel Nord in 2008, this research examine the use of discretion in the legal treatment of incidents committed in conjugal context. This study has three specific objectives. The first objective describes the judicial treatment of the incidents committed in conjugal context. Our results indicate that these incidents are subject to a more punitive treatment because they are more frequently submitted to court procedures than the other types of crimes. This more systematic judiciarisation could be an explanation for the weaker conviction rate of these incidents (17.2 %). The second objective describes the main characteristics of these incidents. The majority of these incidents involve physical violence and police officers intervene more frequently with people in current unions. The majority of the victims say that they have been previously victim of violence in their relationship and a third of them are willing to file a complaint against their aggressor. Finally, 78% of the incidents imply a male attacker and female victim whereas police officers suspect 14.29% of the victims of having made the first hostile or violent gesture. The last objective focuses on the identification of the elements associated to decision-making in conjugal context. The results confirm the hypothesis according to which the incidents that do not imply a male attacker and a female victim or those in which police officers suspect the victim of having made the first hostile or violent gesture are subject to a more lenient judicial treatment. Moreover, most of the decision-making factors studied lose of their influence during the legal process and the decisions previously taken strongly influence subsequent decisions. Finally, the victim’s desire to file a complaint does not directly influence legal decisions.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the patronage of Piero de’ Medici and Lucrezia Tornabuoni. My aim is to discuss and place the patronage in the complex field of the renaissance as an active conjugal partnership between the two. The study is divided in three main chapters, the introduction part where an overview of the main issues in the field of renaissance patronage and a background of the people involved; one chapter where the two religious rooms are introduced and the specific patronage described; and finally a chapter where the different procedures are discussed, compared and combined into one joint conjugal patronage for the both of them. The evidence uncovered supporting the conjugal patronage is partly the similarities between the altar paintings in the rooms. They are both made of Fra Filipo Lippi and both are portraying the Adoration of Infant Jesus. The presence of the coat of arms of both the noble houses at the Camaldoli adoration and a series of lettres between Piero and one of his painters, Benezzo Gozzoli.

RESUMO PORRECA, W. Famílias Recompostas: Casais Católicos em Segunda União. 2004. 124f. Dissertação de Mestrado – Faculdade de Filosofia Ciências e Letras de Ribeirão Preto (FFCLRP)/ Universidade de São Paulo (USP), 2004. A instituição familiar está passando por mudanças diversas, dentre as quais se inclui o aumento de separações e divórcios e a redução de casamentos legais e religiosos. Diante dessas transformações a Igreja Católica, que defende a indissolubilidade do matrimônio, junto com casais em segunda união procura apoiar a constituição da Pastoral de Casais em Segunda União. Este trabalho tem como objetivo examinar a organização familiar de casais católicos vivendo em segunda união e que participam da Pastoral, para investigar como se deu a primeira união, as causas que levaram a sua ruptura e a uma nova união e as motivações desses casais em continuarem a integrar a comunidade católica. Os participantes da pesquisa são dez casais católicos em segunda união, na faixa etária entre 30 e 50 anos, residentes nas cidades de Aguaí, Mococa, Mogi Guaçu, São João da Boa Vista e São José do Rio Pardo, no estado de São Paulo, todas sob jurisdição religiosa da Diocese de São João da Boa Vista. A coleta de dados foi feita através de entrevistas gravadas separadamente com cada um dos integrantes dos casais, transcritas na íntegra e orientadas por um roteiro semi-estruturado. A análise dos dados indica que os principais motivos da separação estão associados ao alcoolismo, à infidelidade conjugal e ao desgaste da dimensão amorosa. O que mais gera preocupação nos sujeitos ao se separarem são as possíveis conseqüências que os filhos poderão sofrer. A segunda união é contraída com a expectativa de formar uma nova família, ter um(a) companheiro(a) e um relacionamento estável. No entanto, lamentam as privações impostas pela Igreja aos casais em segunda união, principalmente o fato de não poderem receber a comunhão sacramental. A participação na Pastoral de Casais em Segunda União favorece a integração e convivência social e religiosa dos casais na Igreja e fora dela e ainda possibilita a superação do sentimento de discriminação que sentiam. A Pastoral possibilita ainda maior conscientização da hierarquia e dos membros dessa instituição sobre o significado do acolhimento e dos direitos desses casais. / ABSTRACT PORRECA, W. Step Families: Catholic Couples on Second Union, 2004. 124f. Master’s Degree Dissertation – Faculdade de Filosofia Ciências e Letras de Ribeirão Preto (FFCLRP)/Universidade de São Paulo (USP), 2004. The familial institution has been going through several changes, including the increase of separations and divorces, and the reduction in the number of legal and religious matrimonies. Facing these transformations the Catholic Church, which defends the indissolubility of matrimony, along with couples that live on a second marital union intends to support the creation of the Pastoral Institution for Couples on Second Marital Union. The present work aims to analyze the familial organization of Catholic couples living a second union and taking part in the Pastoral Institution, to investigate the way through which union occurred, the marital separation, the second marital union and these couples´ motivations to continue being part of the Catholic community. The participants of the research were ten Catholic couples, in which partners live on a second union, with an age range between 30 and 50 years old, living in the cities of Aguaí, Mococa, Mogi Guaçu, São João da Boa Vista e São José do Rio Pardo, in the state of São Paulo, all of which under the religious jurisdiction of the Diocese of São João da Boa Vista. The data gathering was done through interviews that were recorded separately with each of the partners of the couple, transcribed in their entirety and guided by a script. The analysis of the data indicates that the main reasons for couple separation are connected to alcoholism, marital infidelity and the weariness of the affection dimension. The fact that most worries people who are about to be separate are the possible consequences that their children might suffer. The intention of the second marital union is based on the expectancy of constituting a new family, for companion and for a solid relationship. However, they feel sorry for the privations that are imposed by the Church to the couples who live on a second marital union, especially the fact that they cannot receive the Holy Communion. Taking part in the Pastoral Institution for Couples on Second Marital Union favors the interaction and social and religious conviviality of the couples in the Church and out of it and also allows them to overcome the discrimination they used to feel. The Pastoral Institution also allows the members of the Catholic church to have greater awareness about the meaning of welcoming these couples and also about their rights.
