A família é um objeto social relevante para a criança uma vez que se constitui como seu primeiro e mais próximo contexto de desenvolvimento. Este objeto é constantemente transformado por mudanças socioculturais e por rupturas de desenlaces que implicam novas configurações familiares. Como qualquer outro membro familiar a criança elabora novos sentidos frente às diferentes realidades. A presente investigação objetivou perscrutar significações sobre família em crianças de 5 a 11 anos, entre estas, crianças cujos pais estão em litígio na justiça por disputa de guarda ou regulamentação de visitas, no Tribunal de Justiça de Pernambuco (TJ-PE). Participaram da pesquisa 41 crianças, sendo 25 meninos e 16 meninas. Do total de participantes, oito foram crianças indicadas pelo Tribunal de Justiça, com a aquiescência da família, para constituírem as crianças focais deste estudo. As demais crianças foram convidadas a compor a situação coletiva de observação, usando-se o critério de pertencerem ao ciclo de amizade escolar das primeiras, a partir da indicação das professoras. Portanto, para cada criança focal existiram três, quatro ou cinco parceiros privilegiados, que compuseram as oito oficinas de brincadeiras para planejarem encenações teatrais sobre família. Em seguida, cada criança, individualmente, foi instada pela pesquisadora a conversar sobre família a partir de dois desenhos que lhe eram solicitados: o primeiro sobre “uma família”; e o segundo sobre “sua família”. Os resultados obtidos com as duas situações, a coletiva e a individual, mostram que as crianças consideram pertinentes à família diversos arranjos, como, por exemplo, famílias nucleares, monoparentais, recasadas ou extensas. Evidencia-se também que as relações familiares são predominantemente manifestações de cuidado, proteção e vinculação afetiva. Quanto à vivência de conflitos conjugais na família, das oito crianças focais quatro expressaram sentimentos de descontentamento ou revelaram indícios desse sentimento. Entretanto, ressalta-se que, mesmo diante das dificuldades decorrentes do conflito, no percurso cotidiano, essas crianças constroem novos sentidos de família, mas preservam seu papel primordial de cuidado, afeto e lugar de pertencimento. / Under the sociointeractionist perspective and with the support of the Network of Meanings perspective, the child is perceived as active constructor of their development, being asked to interpret their surroundings, creating a version of objects and social events affecting them. The family is an important social object to the child as it is their first and closest development context. This object is constantly transformed by sociocultural changes and disruptions of outcomes involving new family configurations. Like any other family member, the child develops new senses when facing different realities. This research aimed to scrutinize meanings of family in children 5-11 years. Among these are children whose parents are in court dispute for custody or regulation of visits, at the Tribunal de Justiça de Pernambuco (TJ-PE). The participants were 41 children, 25 boys and 16 girls. Of all participants, eight were children indicated by the Court, with the family's consent, to constitute the focal children in this study. The other children were invited to compose the collective situation of observation, using the criteria of belonging to the same school of the focal children, from the indication of the teachers. Therefore, for each focal child there were three, four or five close partners, who composed the eight workshops of games to plan theatrical productions about family. Then each individual was asked by the researcher to talk about family from two designs that it demanded: the first about "a family"; and the second on "your family". The results obtained with the two situations, the collective and the individual, show that children consider several modalities relevant to the family, such as nuclear families, single-parent, remarried or extensive families. It also shows that family relationships are predominantly care demonstration, protection and affectionate bonds. As for the experience of marital conflict in the family, among the eight focal children, four expressed feelings of dissatisfaction or showed evidence of that feeling. However, it is important to state that even with the difficulties arising from the conflict in daily life, these children make new meanings about family that preserve the primary role of care, affection and place of belonging.

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.

Estudou-se a experiência de mulheres vivendo com HIV e aids também conviverem com situações de violência por parceiro íntimo, e as repercussões destes entrecruzamentos para o cuidado de sua saúde. Tomamos como referência o conceito de vulnerabilidade já formulado para a AIDS e retrabalhado especificamente para as questões de gênero, permitindo explorar o conceito nas situações de violência doméstica contra as mulheres. Partiu-se do pressuposto que os contextos do HIV/Aids podem gerar situações de violência de mulheres soropositivas e que as representações amorosas, o ideal de conjugalidade e de família podem influenciar no impacto do cuidado da saúde das mulheres. Foram realizadas 20 entrevistas em profundidade com mulheres em acompanhamento do HIV/Aids, inseridas nos Serviços de Saúde da Rede Especializada em DST/Aids da cidade de São Paulo, na modalidade história de vida. Encontraram-se diversos contextos da vulnerabilidade, denominada de gênero, nas narrativas produzidas, na infância, adolescência e fase adulta, reforçando padrões hegemônicos de gênero ao longo dos diferentes ciclos de vida dessas mulheres. O estudo aponta que as experiências do adoecimento na revelação do diagnóstico é o elemento disparador de medos e sofrimentos em decorrência da reação dos parceiros e a das preocupações com os filhos. O diagnóstico do HIV é o momento não só do contato com a doença, mas de desvelar ou reconhecer situações de violência. É a partir das concepções e contextos de vida que as mulheres identificam o modo de se situarem no enfrentamento do HIV e da violência. O cuidado da saúde foi abordado tanto como cuidado de si, quanto na relação com os serviços de saúde, o que mostrou a grande preocupação representada pelas dificuldades que, em função de suas condições de portadoras do HIV, essas mulheres viam para se manterem na condição tradicional de cuidadoras, dentro das referências do padrão social de gênero, quer em torno de seus adoecimentos e expectativas de vida futura, quer para com os filhos. Tais preocupações surgem como justificativas da manutenção da família diante de parceiros violentos. Embora presente, observou-se que o tema violência não é pauta na atenção à saúde da mulher vivendo com HIV e aids, nos serviços de saúde especializados. A vulnerabilidade de gênero destaca-se pela ênfase na condição materna, em que por ela e para ela as mulheres dão significados às suas vidas, ao adoecimento e ao cuidado. / This work studied the experience of women living with HIV and AIDS also live with situations of violence by their intimate partner and the implications of these intersections for their health care. We took as reference the concept of vulnerability already formulated to AIDS and adapted for gender issues, allowing explore it in situations of domestic violence against women. We started from the assumption that the contexts of HIV / AIDS can lead to situations of domestic violence involving HIV positive women and that the representations of love, the ideal of marital and family can influence on health care of these women. We made 20 in-depth interviews with women living with HIV / AIDS, followed on STD / AIDS reference centers of the Municipality of São Paulo, using living history method. We found in the narratives several contexts of the so called gender vulnerability occurred in childhood, adolescence and adulthood, reinforcing hegemonic gender patterns over the different life cycles of these women. The study shows that the fact of the diagnosis disclosure to be made during an illness is the element that triggers fear and suffering in relation to the reaction of the partners and worries with their children. The time of HIV diagnosis is not only the moment of contact with the disease, but also the time to uncover or recognize situations of violence. It is through conceptions and contexts of life that women identify how to locate themselves in the struggle against HIV and violence. Health care was addressed as much as caring for oneself as well in relation with the health services. This approach showed the great concern about the difficulties perceived by these women in order to keep the condition of traditional caregivers within the references of hegemonic social pattern of gender, either about their illnesses and future life expectations either about children. Such concerns arise as a justification for maintaining the family when there is coexistence with a violent partner. Although present, it was observed that violence is not an issue discussed in health care of women living with HIV and AIDS in specialized health services. The vulnerability of gender of these women is distinguished by an emphasis on maternal condition which gives meaning to their lives, illness and care.

[pt] A inserção da mulher de classe média/alta no mercado de trabalho, sua busca por realização profissional e independência financeira transformaram, definitivamente, a antiga divisão sexual do trabalho. O dinheiro da mulher no casamento contemporâneo é um marco essencial nas mudanças que ocorreram nas relações afetivo-sexuais da segunda metade do século XX em diante. E é, por isso, que a análise das tomadas de decisão financeira de um casal pode-nos oferecer informações importantes sobre as relações de poder, desigualdade e manifestações de individualidade de cada um de seus membros. Especialmente, entre recém-casados, foco de nossa pesquisa, em que a formação dessa negociação acontece de formas diferentes, envolvendo valores aprendidos nas famílias de origem. Compreender a(s) conseqüência(s) de tais mudanças nos relacionamentos conjugais entre homens e mulheres é de fundamental importância para os avanços nos estudos sobre conjugalidade no Brasil, ainda carente de pesquisas específicas sobre dinheiro e casamento. A presente pesquisa trata do impacto do dinheiro da mulher no casamento contemporâneo e de como a construção das regras nas decisões financeiras são percebidas, vividas, definidas ou, mesmo, questionadas por ela. Para tal, realizamos um estudo exploratório com 12 mulheres recém-casadas ou recém-morando junto, entre seis meses e três anos de união, estando ambos os membros do casal em seus primeiros casamentos, trabalhando remuneradamente, sem filhos e pertencentes à classe média/alta carioca. Seus discursos revelaram que as mulheres reconhecem no trabalho remunerado a possibilidade de possuírem autonomia em suas decisões e de definirem e colocarem em prática hobbies e gostos pessoais. Além disso, a maioria de nossas entrevistadas se diz organizada com o próprio dinheiro, muitas vezes, sendo ela quem exerce o controle e o planejamento financeiro do casal. E de fato, sua autonomia em relação ao próprio dinheiro está mais ligada a assumir a sua administração, do que simplesmente ganhá-lo. Percebemos isso, pois apenas duas de nossas entrevistadas delegam aos maridos o gerenciamento do dinheiro, perdendo poder de barganha naquilo que consideram prioridades pessoais. / [en] The inserction of the middle and upper class woman into the labor market, her search for professional realization and financial independency definitely transformed the traditional work division among couples. The woman`s money in the contemporary marriage is an essential mark that led to changes in the way couples live together since the half of the 20th century. And that`s why an analysis of the financial decision making process in couples is so important to give us information about the power relations, differences and individual characteristics of regular wife and husband. Specially in a just-married couple, objective of our research, where the development and negotiation of these behaviors begins, taking into account each side`s familiar values. To understand the consequence of these changes in the husband/wife relation is key to understand marriage itself. And that subject lacks of studies here in Brazil. This research aims to understand these woman`s money impact in the contemporary marriage. How the couple defines its rules, how they are accepted and questioned upon. The method used consisted of an interview of twelve women that had recently got into living together with someone (from 6 months to 3 years), not necessarily through marriage. To be eligible for the interview both husband and wife had to be on their first marriage, both working, no kids and be part of the middle class or above. Their speeches revealed that women see the remunerated work a way of acquiring autonomy in their decisions and a possibility to develop personal hobbies. Besides that, the majority of the interviewed women says that she is organized with their own money, being, most of the times, her who controls and plans the finances of the couple. In fact, their autonomy is more linked to assume its planning than to simply earn it. That was noticed, since only two of the interviewed women delegate to their husbands the management of their money, what causes them to lose priority on how to decide the way money is going to be spent.

This dissertation aims to understand the demographic dynamics of the city of Santa Maria/RS through the focus on gender and conjugal relations. Thus, it intended to, as a main objective, understand the gender relations/relationships through the patriarchate and paradoxical space contexts, which are concepts of primal importance for Feminist Geography and Gender Studies. The research has the following specific objectives: a) to spatialize the analysis of demographic dynamics in Santa Maria/RS, focusing on the different values of the demographic data (finance, literacy, household heads, the proportion of population by sex gender), according to the 2010 census; b) to achieve interpretations for the correlations between census data on the quality and perception of women which live in the spatial area obtained in the goal "a" c) to interpret the population dynamics through the conjugal relations/relationships, considering the social conditions of women at Agroindustrial Street, spatial area of study. Methodologically, the research steps are grounded on interpretations offered by interviews with women that live in that neighborhood, in order to express their experiences. Among the study results, it emphasizes the maintenance of patriarchal conceptions in the interviewees‟ speech, even though most of them were already have inserted in the labor market and access to educational improvement. / A presente dissertação pretende compreender a dinâmica demográfica do município de Santa Maria/RS mediante o enfoque das relações de gênero e de conjugalidade. Dessa maneira, procura-se, como objetivo geral, entender as relações de gênero através dos contextos do patriarcado e do espaço paradoxal, conceitos de exímia importância para a Geografia Feminista e estudos de Gênero. A investigação apresenta como objetivos específicos: a) espacializar a análise da dinâmica demográfica em Santa Maria/RS enfocando os diferentes valores dos dados demográficos (renda, alfabetização, chefes de domicílio, proporção da população por sexo), conforme bairro pelo Censo 2010; b) Buscar interpretações das correlações de dados censitários na qualidade e percepção das mulheres que vivem o recorte espacial obtido no objetivo a ; c) Interpretar a dinâmica populacional através das relações de conjugalidade, considerando as condições sociais das mulheres do Bairro Agroindustrial, recorte espacial de estudo. Metodologicamente, as etapas da pesquisa estão alicerçadas em interpretações oferecidas pela realização de entrevistas com mulheres residentes no referido bairro, visando expressar suas vivências. Entre os resultados do estudo, ressalta-se a permanência de concepções patriarcais na fala das entrevistadas, mesmo que grande parte delas já estivesse inserida no mercado de trabalho e no acesso ao aprimoramento educacional.

[pt] A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo discutir repercussões da violência conjugal como violência psicológica contra crianças e adolescentes, considerando a exposição da prole em espaços de convivência familiar onde a dinâmica de violência entre o (ex) casal parental é presente e frequente. Para tanto, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa, através da análise de quatro casos atendidos em uma unidade de referência da rede de proteção a mulheres vítimas de violência doméstica no município do Rio de Janeiro. Os resultados demonstram a persistência de segmentação da rede de atendimento, desfavorecendo a abordagem da família em sua complexidade e dificultando a garantia, concomitante e integrada, dos direitos humanos de mulheres vítimas de violência conjugal e de seus filhos quanto às repercussões destes conflitos como expressão possível de violência psicológica. / [en] The following research aims to discuss repercussions of domestic violence as well as psychological violence against children and adolescents, considering offspring exposure to family dynamics of frequent violence between parents. To do this, a qualitative study was conducted by analyzing four cases in a women s domestic violence treatment unit in Rio de Janeiro. The results demonstrate the continued segmentation of the service network, compromising the complexity of a family approach and making it difficult to guarantee the concurrent and integrated human rights of women domestic violence victims and their children on the impact of these conflicts as possible expressions of psychological violence.

Cette thèse porte sur les effets du processus de parrainage sur les dynamiques conjugales et les parcours de vie. À partir d’une approche de recherche qualitative et interdisciplinaire, 20 participant.e.s, 7 hommes et 13 femmes, qui ont vécu une expérience de parrainage conjugal à titre de parrain ou de conjoint.e parrainé.e ont été rencontré.e.s en entrevue. Dans cette thèse, nous explorons plus particulièrement les effets du processus de parrainage sur les dynamiques conjugales selon deux périodes : 1) du début des procédures de demande de parrainage jusqu’à l’obtention du visa de résidence permanente et 2) durant l’engagement de parrainage de trois ans. Nous documentons également les expériences d’une séparation conjugale qui survient lors de l’engagement de parrainage. Les analyses verticales et transversales basées sur les perspectives de parcours de vie ont permis de rendre compte de la diversité de parcours en articulant l’expérience du processus de parrainage notamment à la trajectoire migratoire, à la composition conjugale, au genre et à l’ethnicité. Si, à première vue, il paraissait évident que le parrainage crée une inégalité dans le couple en positionnant la personne parrainée sous la responsabilité financière de son parrain, il s’est avéré en creusant davantage le sujet les trajectoires et dynamiques conjugales demeurent beaucoup plus complexes et que l’analyse doit prendre en compte les périodes prémigratoires ainsi que les conditions de migration et les réseaux de soutien potentiels. Finalement, à la lumière des résultats de l’étude, nous proposons une typologie des parcours types qui rend compte à la fois de la diversité des parcours et des niveaux d’influence que le processus de parrainage peut produire sur les dynamiques conjugales. / This thesis focuses on the effects of the sponsorship process on marital dynamics and life courses. Based on a qualitative and interdisciplinary research approach, 20 participants, 7 men and 13 women, who had a sponsorship experience as a sponsor or a sponsored spouse, were interviewed. In this thesis, we explore the effects on conjugal dynamics in two key moments: 1) from the beginning of the sponsorship application process to obtaining the permanent residence visa, and 2) during the sponsorship undertaking of three years. We also document the experiences of a marital separation that occurs during the sponsorship undertaking. The vertical and cross-sectional analysis method used in this thesis made it possible for us to report on the diversity of pathways by articulating the experience of the sponsorship process, in particular with migration trajectory, marital composition, gender and ethnicity. If, at first glance, it seemed obvious that sponsorship creates inequality in couples by positioning the sponsored person under the financial responsibility of his or her sponsor, it turned out that the analysis of conjugal dynamics was more complex. Finally, in the light of the results of the study, we propose a typology of typical pathways that reflects both the diversity of pathways and levels of influence that the sponsorship process can produce on conjugal dynamics.

[pt] A presente dissertação teve como objetivo investigar as motivações envolvidas no processo de escolha amorosa na conjugalidade contemporânea. Está sendo apresentada em formato de dois artigos. No primeiro, analisou-se como as dimensões da individualidade e da conjugalidade repercutem na satisfação conjugal; no segundo, foram discutidos os resultados referentes às repercussões da família de origem na escolha do cônjuge. Participaram deste estudo oito sujeitos (quatro homens e quatro mulheres), com idades entre 22 e 49 anos, casados ou em união estável, coabitantes, há pelo menos dois anos, sem filhos, pertencentes às camadas médias da população carioca. Os sujeitos foram escolhidos de forma independente e são de primeiro casamento. Para a avaliação das entrevistas, foi utilizado o método de análise de conteúdo, em sua vertente categorial, tal como proposto por Bardin (2011). Da avaliação do material emergiram duas categorias de análise: escolha amorosa e satisfação conjugal. Constatou-se que a conjugalidade dos pais serve de modelo para o casamento dos filhos. Observou-se, também, que a valorização da liberdade individual, a vivência da intimidade conjugal, abarcando aspectos relativos à amizade e ao afeto, e a flexibilidade em lidar com as dimensões individuais e conjugais são promotoras de satisfação conjugal. / [en] The present dissertation aimed to investigate the motivations involved in the process of love choice in contemporary conjugality. It is being presented in the form of two articles. In the first one, we analyzed how the dimensions of individuality and conjugality affect marital satisfaction; in the second, the results concerning the repercussions of the family of origin in the choice of the spouse and in the conjugal interaction were discussed. A qualitative research was carried out, in which four men and four women, with ages between 22 and 49, married or in a stable union, for at least two years, without children, were interviewed. To analyze the data the content analysis method was used in its categorial aspect, as proposed by Bardin (2011). From the evaluation of the material two categories of analysis emerged: love choice and marital satisfaction. It was found out that the results point to the conjugality of the parents as a model for the marriage of the offsprings. The study also observes that the appreciation of individual freedom, the experience of conjugal intimacy and the flexibility to deal with individual and conjugal dimensions are promoters of conjugal satisfaction.

Thèse numérisée par la Direction des bibliothèques de l’Université de Montréal / The goals of this study were: (1) to determine the contribution of the stressors (atrisk pregnancy and antenatal hospitalization), the resources (conjugal adjustment and satisfaction from others) and the perception of the stressors (primary stress appraisal: threat, challenge, centrality; and secondary stress appraisal: control-self, control-others, incontroUable) to first-time parenting couples' global stress associated with at-risk pregnancy and antenatal hospitalization, and (2) to assess congruence between the partners' perceptions of stress in terms of similarities. Three types of similarities are considered, produced from combinations of self-perceptions (a person's direct perception) and metaperceptions (a person's perception of another person): actual similarity, perceived similarity and understanding. The non-probabilistic sample of 109 couples was recruited fi'om 12 perinatal units in the Montreal region. The couples completed four questionnah-es: The Personal and Pregnancy Information Guide, the Dyadic Adjustment Scale, the Support Behaviors Inventory, and the Stress Appraisal Measure. Using Boss' model (1988) The Contextual Model of Family Stress to study the first research goal, 52% of the variance regarding the women's global stress was explained by primary stress appraisal (threat, challenge, centrality), while 60% of the variance regarding the men's global stress was explained by the stressors (gestation, prenatal classes, education) and primary stress appraisal (threat, centrality). For the couples' models, 33% of their global stress at the level of actual similarity was explained by prunary stress appraisal (threat, centrality), while at the level of perceived similarity, 32% of the explained variance was due to primary stress appraisal (threat, centrality) and secondary stress appraisal (controlself, control-others). At the level of understanding, 32% of the explained variance is attributed to the resources (dyadic cohesion) and primary stress appraisal (threat, centrality). Further analyses were conducted on couples' perceptions since primary stress appraisal was found to be a significant predictor of thek global stress (second research goal). In order to attain this, five hypotheses were tested: HI: There is a significant difference in the perceived similarity of global stress appraisal between women and men (confirmed); H2: There is a significant difference in understanding of global stress appraisal between women and men (confirmed); H3: There is congruence between women's and men's perceived smiilarity and actual similarity for global stress appraisal (partially confirmed); H4: There is congruence between women's and men's understanding and actual smiilarity for global stress appraisal (partially confirmed); and, H5: There is congruence between women's and men's understanding and women's and men's perceived smiilarity for global stress appraisal (partially confirmed). Despite the couples' moderate stress appraisal, women perceive at-risk pregnancy and antenatal hospitaUzation as a threat, and their global perception of stress is significantly higher than that of the men. Men perceive the same stressors as a challenge and being in control of the situation. The couples are congruent in actual similarity except for the means of challenge and self-control. Regarding perceived similarity, there are no significant differences for the women whereas for the men, there are significant discrepancies for the means of threat and global stress. For women's understanding, there are significant discrepancies between the means of for threat and global stress, while for the men, there are no significant differences. Women are more stressed by at-risk pregnancy and antenatal hospitalization than the men, resulting in a greater lack of congruence between the different sunilarities. They are less available for the conjugal relationship, while the men are more understanding and more available to devote themselves to the relationship: the men's optimism appears to reduce the women's stress with an impact on the relationship. Regarding couples' stress, there is a gradual shift in perceiving the strcssors as threatening to perceiving them as important for their well-being. Also, control and the conjugal relationship become more unportant at the levels of perceived similarity and understanding respectively. In conclusion, women and men do not perceive the stressors in the same way, and that nurses and other health care professionals should consider both partners' perceptions as weU as that of the couple's in their global evaluation of stress during their interventions. Nurses' greater challenge is to help a couple to be 'a couple' in the hospital setting in order to help them protect their love and intimacy. / Les buts de cette étude étaient: (l) d'évaluer la contribution des stresseurs (la grossesse à risque et l'hospitalisation), des ressources (rajustement conjugal et la satisfaction du soutien des autres) et de la perception des stresseurs (évaluation primaire: menace, défi, centralité; évaluation secondaire: contrôle-soi, contrôle-autres, incontrôlable) sur le niveau de stress relié à la grossesse à risque et l'hospitalisation anténatale chez des couples sans enfant; et (2) d'évaluer la congruence entre les perceptions des partenaires en termes de similarités. Trois types de similarités sont analysés, lesquels proviennent de la combinaison des autoperceptions (la perception directe d'une personne) et des méta-perceptions (la perception qu'une personne a de l'autre): la similarité actuelle, la similarité perçue et la compréhension. L'échantillon nonprobabiliste comprend 109 couples recrutés dans 12 unités périnatales de la grande région de Montréal. Les couples ont rempli quatre questionnaires: le Guide d'information personnelle et périnatale, l'Échelle d'ajustement dyadique, l'Inventaire de comportements de soutien, et l'Échelle d'évaluation du stress. Afin d'atteindre le premier but de la recherche, Le modèle contextuel de stress familial de Boss (1988) a été utUisé: 52% de la variance du stress global chez les femmes est expliqué par l’évaluation primaire (menace, défi, centralité), tandis chez les hommes, 60% de la variance de leur stress global est expliqué par les stresseurs (gestation, cours prénataux, éducation) et l’évaluation primaire (menace, centralité). En ce qui concerne les modèles chez les couples, 33% de leur stress global au niveau de la similarité actuelle est expliqué par l’évaluation primaire, tandis qu'au niveau de la similarité perçue, 32% de la variance est expliqué par l’évaluation primaire (menace, centralité) et l’évaluation secondaire (contrôle-soi, contrôle-autres). Au niveau de la compréhension, 32% de la variance est expliqué par les ressources (cohésion dyadique) et l’évaluation primaire (menace, centralité). Les analyses sur la perception des stresseurs ont été approfondies puisque celle-ci expliquait le stress global stress chez les femmes, les hommes et les couples (deuxième but de la recherche). Donc, cinq hypothèses ont été testées: HI: II y a une différence significative entre le niveau de similarité perçue du stress global des femmes et celui des hommes (confirmée); H2: II y a une différence significative entre le niveau de compréhension du stress global des femmes et celui des hommes (confirmée); H3: Il y a congruence entre la similarité perçue chez les femmes et les hommes et la similarité actuelle du stress global (partiellement confirmée); H4: II y a congruence entre la compréhension chez les femmes et les hommes et la similarité actuelle du stress global (partiellement confirmée); et, H5: Il y a congruence entre la compréhension chez les femmes et les hommes et la similarité perçue chez les femmes et les hommes du stress global (partiellement confirmée). Malgré le niveau de stress moyen des couples, les femmes perçoivent la grossesse à risque élevé et l'hospitalisation anténatale comme une menace, et leur niveau de stress global est significativement plus élevé que chez les hommes. Les hommes perçoivent les mêmes stresseurs comme un défi et d'être en contrôle de la situation. Les couples sont congruents quant à la similarité actuelle sauf le défi et le contrôle-de-soi. A l'égard de la similarité perçue, il n'y a pas de différence significative chez les femmes, tandis que pour les hommes, il y a des différences significatives entre les moyennes de la menace et du stress global. Au niveau de la compréhension des femmes, il y a des différences significatives entre les moyennes de la menace et du stress global, tandis qu'il n'y a pas chez les hommes. Les femmes sont plus stressées que les hommes face aux stresseur de la grossesse à risque et de l'hospitalisation anténatale, ayant comme conséquence un plus grand manque de congruence entre les différents niveaux de similarités. Elles sont donc moins disponibles pour la relation conjugale. Tandis que les hommes semblent plus compréhensifs et plus disponibles pour se consacrer à la relation conjugale, leur optimisme semble diminuer le stress ressenti par les femmes. En ce qui concerne le stress global des couples, les résultats suggèrent qu'il y a une transformation graduelle de la perception du stresseur vers une perception basée sur le bien-être du couple. Aussi, le contrôle et la relation conjugale deviennent plus importants aux niveaux de la similarité perçue et de la compréhension respectivement. En conclusion, les femmes et les hommes ne perçoivent pas les stresseurs de la même façon. Les infirmières et les autres professionnels de la santé doivent tenir compte des perceptions de chaque partenaire ainsi que celles du couple dans l’évaluation globale du stress. Le plus grand défi des infirmières est d'aider le couple d'être couple en milieu hospitalier afin de protéger leur intimité.

Actuellement, la violence conjugale demeure un phénomène social grave et complexe au sein de nos sociétés contemporaines. Au Canada, le taux de violence perpétrée par un partenaire intime ne cesse d’augmenter depuis plusieurs années et la récente pandémie de COVID-19 survenue en 2020 a aggravé les épisodes de tension au sein des foyers, notamment en raison des mesures sanitaires restrictives. Plus que jamais, la protection des victimes de violence conjugale devient critique, et c’est pourquoi il est essentiel que toutes les mesures de prévention disponibles doivent être mises en œuvre dans ce but commun. Ce mémoire propose donc d’explorer les enjeux relatifs à l’implantation de bracelets antirapprochements (BAR) comme moyen de prévention des homicides conjugaux au Québec. Sur la base d’entretiens semi-directifs, l’échantillon est composé d’un total de 14 participants, dont 6 proviennent d’organismes policiers, 3 proviennent d’organismes impliqués dans la gestion des personnes contrevenantes, 3 sont issus d’organismes impliqués dans les missions d’aide aux victimes et 2 sont issus d’organismes associés à la défense des droits de la personne. L’analyse des données recueillies met en évidence quatre types d’enjeux relatifs à l’implantation de BAR en contexte de violence conjugale au Québec, à savoir les enjeux technologiques, légaux, éthiques et sociaux. Ces derniers devront faire l’objet d’une analyse approfondie par les décideurs advenant l’implantation du BAR au Québec. Cela étant, le BAR s’inscrit comme un outil de prévention tertiaire innovant et prometteur des homicides conjugaux, et relève d’un grand potentiel quant à l’amélioration de la qualité de vie des victimes. / Currently, intimate partner violence remains a serious and complex social phenomenon within our contemporary societies. In Canada, the rate of violence perpetrated by an intimate partner has been steadily increasing for several years and the recent pandemic of COVID-19 which occurred in 2020 has aggravated episodes of tension within homes, due to restrictive health measures among others. More than ever, the protection of victims of intimate partner violence becomes critical, and that is why it is essential that all available prevention measures must be implemented for this common purpose. This thesis therefore proposes to explore the issues relating to the implantation of anti-reconciliation bracelets (BAR) as a means of preventing spousal homicides in Quebec. Based on semi-structured interviews, the sample is made up of a total of 14 participants, including 6 from police organizations, 3 from organizations involved in the management of offenders, 3 from organizations involved in victim assistance missions and 2 are from organizations associated with the defense of human rights. The analysis of the data collected highlights four types of issues relating to the implementation of BAR in the context of intimate partner violence in Quebec, namely technological, legal, ethical and social issues. These will have to be the subject of an in-depth analysis by the decision-makers in the event of the establishment of the BAR in Quebec. That said, the BAR is an innovative and promising tertiary prevention tool for spousal homicides and has great potential for improving the quality of life of victims.
