Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur psykologiska verktyg kan användas föratt lättare förstå en films karaktärer för att kunna göra det enklare att bygga upp democh filmens struktur. Filmen Justice League vs the Fatal Five (2019) analyseras för attse hur protagonisten utvecklas genom och utvecklar sidokaraktärerna i birollerna, hurbiroller också förtjänar att utvecklas till en viss del och hur användbara psykologiskametoder av terapi kan vara för att göra en bra, intressant film. Uppsatsen argumenteraratt det finns en viss dramaturgisk demokrati som karaktärerna följer, att det är okej attutveckla birollerna något, även om protagonisten förstås får mest och tydligastutveckling. Uppsatsen argumenterar också att sorgens faser är en bra struktur att följaför att förenkla hur en karaktär utvecklas.

One incidence of intimate partner non-fatal strangulation (NFS) significantly increases the risk of homicide by asphyxiation (i.e., deprivation of oxygen resulting in death). The implications of NFS are well examined but the prevalence and dyadic influences of asphyxiation are less understood. This study examined various relationship types to determine if those defined by longevity and intimacy (e.g., dating and spousal) demonstrated the highest risk for NFS/asphyxiation, and evaluated the prevalence of other types of force at the time of the assault (e.g., firearms, personal weapons). Data for this project were obtained from the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s online incident-based reporting system. There were 34,448 reported cases of intimate partner violence (IPV) in 2019 included in the analysis. Independent variables included the survivor-offender relationship, (dating, marital, acquaintance) the force involved at the time of the assault, including the use of a firearm, NFS, asphyxiation, dangerous weapons (knife/cutting instrument, blunt object), or personal weapons, (hands, fist, feet, arms, teeth) and the location of the assault. The dependent variable was classified by the offense type (aggravated assault, simple assault, homicide, and forcible rape). Data were first cleaned using KuTools for Excel, 23.00 and then analyzed in SPSS Version 25. Regarding homicide, the most lethal type of force involved was not asphyxiation (6.5%; n = 3), but instead the use of a firearm (56.5%; n = 26), followed by dangerous weapons, (23.9%; n =11). The majority of NFS cases were classified as aggravated assaults (95.3%; n = 528) and mainly occurred at the survivor/victim’s residence (85.1%; n = 441). Regarding dyadic influences, the majority of incidents of NFS/asphyxiation occurred in dating (boyfriend/girlfriends; 63.9%; n = 354) and spousal (19.5%; n = 108;) relationships with homicides mainly occurring against spouses (50.0%; n = 21). A multinomial logistic regression model examining relationship type on the effect of force involved was significant, χ2(12, N =34,448) = 261.533, p < .001, Nagelkerke’s R2= .011. Only those in boyfriend/girlfriend (OR = .019; CI = .017-.021) and ex-boyfriend/girlfriend (OR = .024; CI = .019-.031) relationships significantly increased the likelihood of experiencing NFS or asphyxiation compared to the use of personal weapons. Those in acquaintance (OR = 3.447; CI = 2.618-4.539) and ex-boyfriend/girlfriend (OR = 2.266; CI = 1.927-2.664) relationships demonstrated the highest likelihood of a firearm being used at the time of assault. Findings indicated that dating and spousal relationships demonstrated the highest risk and prevalence of NFS and asphyxiation, but most cases of homicide involved a firearm. Proper screening by clinicians and medical personnel should assess for the current relationship type, past instances of NFS, and the presence of a firearm within the home. Further options for screening will be presented.

The oil palm is an important source of vegetable oil for the world industry being the most produced currently worldwide. Oil palm plantations in Brazil, mainly the largest plantations located in the state ofPara, suffer from the incidence offatal yellowing (FA). The objective of this work is to determine the incidence and spread of FA, and the influence of altimetiy, precipitation and relative humidity in the AF on organic palm oil planting in the Eastern Amazon. The experimental area is located in the municipality of Acara (PA), in oil palm plantation belonging to the AGROPALMA S.A Group company. For the study, 15 oil palm plots were selected. Plant samples were taken by company employees, each plant in the study area was visited every month at least once in the period from 2001 to 2014. Each of these plants was considered a sampling point, in which the value of the binary variable, 1 (one) for plant with FA symptoms with Fatal Yellowing and 0 (zero) for absence of this disease. Through the georeferencing (latitude and longitude) ofthe plants were generated the regionalized variables used in the geostatistics and using high precision geodesic gps to collect the altitude values within the experimental area, from these data was generated a planialtimetric map to relate the altitude and incidence ofAF over time. The spatial variability was analyzed by means of geostatistical modeling techniques constructed from experimental semivariograms, tested using mathematical, spherical, Gaussian, exponential, linear and random models (pure nugget effect). The results indicate that plants with FA symptoms are likely to influence low altitude areas. By means of semivariograms it was observed that the models that best fn the spatial distribution ofthe FA were: pure, gaussian, spherical and exponential pepita effect. With range values for the experimental area varying from 200 to 570 meters, with formation of areas of aggregation for plants with symptoms ofFA. Geostatistics showed promise to evaluate the dispersion of the Fatal Yellowing incidence in areas of palm plantations. The results of reaching the incidence and monitoring of altimetry indicate that, from areas of focus of incidence of the disease, there may be an increase in cases of incidence in plants and / or nearby stands ofoil palm, especially in areas of lower altitude. / A palma de óleo e uma importante fonte de óleo vegetal para a industria mundial sendo a mais produzida atualmente no mundo todo. Os plantios de palma de óleo no Brasil, principalmente os maiores plantios localizados no estado do Para, sofrem com a incidência do amarelecimento fatal (AF). O presente trabalho tem por objetivo determinar o raio de incidência e disseminação do AF, e a influencia da altimetria, precipitação e umidade relativa no AF em plantio de palma de óleo orgânica na Amazônia Oriental. A área experimental se localiza no município do Acara (PA), em plantio de palma de óleo pertencente a empresa do Grupo AGROPALMA S.A. Para realização do estudo selecionou-se 15 parcelas de palma de óleo. As amostragens das plantas foram realizadas por funcionários da empresa, cada planta da área de estudo era visitada, todo mês, pelo menos uma vez, no período de 2001 a 2014. Cada uma destas plantas foi considerada um ponto amostral, no qual se obteve o valor da variável binaria, 1 (um) para planta com sintomas do AF com o Amarelecimento Fatal e 0 (zero) para ausência dessa doença. Por meio do georreferenciamento (latitude e longitude) das plantas foram geradas as variáveis regionalizadas utilizadas na geoestatística e utilizando gps geodésico de alta precisão para coleta dos valores de altitude dentro da área experimental, a partir desses dados foi gerado um mapa planialtimétrico para relacionar a altitude e incidência do AF ao longo do tempo. A variabilidade espacial foi analisada por meio de tecnicas de modelagem geoestatistica construídas a partir de semivariogramas experimentais, testados por meio de modelos matemáticos, esférico, gaussiano, exponencial, linear e aleatório (efeito pepita puro). Os resultados indicam que as plantas com sintomas de AF tem provável influencia de áreas de baixa altitude. Por meio dos semivariogramas observou-se que os modelos que melhor se ajustaram a distribuição espacial do AF foram: efeito pepita puro, gaussiano, esférico e exponencial. Com valores de alcance para a área experimental variando de 200 a 570 metros, com formação de áreas de agregato para plantas com sintomas do AF. A geoestatistica se mostrou promissora para avaliar a dispersão da incidência do Amarelecimento Fatal em áreas de plantio de palma. Os resultados do alcance da incidência e do monitoramento do através da altimetria indicam que a partir de áreas de foco de incidência da doença pode ocorrer aumento nos casos de incidência em plantas e/ou talhões próximos de palma de óleo, principalmente nas áreas de menor altitude.

<p><a>The primary goal of this research was to summarize the occupational farm-related fatalities of Indiana farmers 55 years and older and to recommend evidence-based intervention strategies targeting older farmers who perform activities that involve the cutting and trimming of trees. The primary activities consisted of (1) preparing a summary of occupational farm-related fatalities of farmers who were 55 years and older, (2) preparing a summary of occupational farm-related fatalities of older farmers who were performing activities in a woodlot setting or that included the occasional cutting and trimming of trees, and finally (3) the development of recommendations for evidence-based injury prevention strategies targeting older farmers who conduct occasional woodcutting activities. </a></p> <p>The summary of older Indiana farmer fatalities identified a total of 388 fatalities reported between 1988 and 2017 with an increase in the number of reported fatalities over the period of 2012-2017. Tractors were identified as the most common source of injury (40.5%) with tractor overturns involved in no fewer than 86 cases or 22.2% of all cases. Older farmer fatalities for occasional woodcutters accounted for 40 fatalities with the cutting and trimming of trees to be the most common cause of injury (67.5%). </p> <p>Core desired safety competencies were identified that were used to develop injury prevention strategies based upon the summary of injuries, areas of concerns reported in the review of literature and the results gathered from the summaries of Indiana older farmers killed while performing woodcutting activities. A pilot evidence-based intervention instructional presentation was developed with the assistance of a panel of experts to be used by Extension Educators to increase awareness of the target population of current safety practices relating to woodlot activities. </p>

After the rebellion over the killing of Michael Brown, the US Justice Department reported that over-policing for the sake of monetary extraction was taking place in Ferguson, MO, with non-White and people in poverty being disproportionately targeted at the hands of the police. And while it has been shown to be present within the Ferguson community, this extraction and targeting by police is not a geographically isolated occurrence. Based on previous research, a racialized, economic-based system of oppression goes hand-in-hand with policing. But how do the qualities of these geographies affect the prominence and location of police violence on a systemic level? Through a process of identity creation and reification informed through the interaction of racial capitalism and the state, specific geographies are identified with different groups within society as a function of housing segregation. These areas are then targeted by police based on their identity and the existing social hierarchy. By using data from Fatal Encounters, an independent organization which catalogs who has been killed by police, coupled with demographic descriptors of place, I show that zip codes with higher levels of Black and Hispanic populations as well as worse-off economic measures were positively associated with an increased odds of more people being killed by police. By shedding light on the drivers of this cycle of violence, I hope to contribute to the establishment of a more just society by redefining who shall be protected from what and whose interests shall be served.

abstract: Filicide, the killing of a child by a parent, is the focus of this meta-study. In the United States, the total number of nonaccidental deaths of children at the hands of a parent is unknown. Five children a day under the age of five die from fatal abuse and neglect (U.S. Advisory Board on Child Abuse and Neglect, 1995). This number is a conservative estimate and does not include children kill by means other than abuse and neglect. Regardless of the number, this author views each filicide as a sentinel event for the United States and the world. A sentinel event is an unexpected occurrence involving death and signals the need for immediate investigation and response. The perspectives of social constructionism and role theory frame this meta-study. The author explored six questions of the extant filicide research: What is the research knowledge on filicide? How is filicide constructed in the research discourse and what is the context of this research? Is filicide constructed as a social problem? Can the use of role theory advance our understanding of filicide? Are there common themes in the filicide research findings? Is there disagreement in the research? What is missing, assumed, or overlooked in the research? The sample consisted of 66 international studies of parents (i.e., genetic, step, foster, person in role of parent) who killed their child(ren) from 1969 to 2009. Major findings include "meta-categories" of filicide research, risk factors, salient themes, and new conceptualization of filicide based on role theory. Individual, social, and structural variables to identify and prevent filicide are presented. An outline for educating practitioners and a tool for screening families for filicide risk are offered / Dissertation/Thesis / Ph.D. Social Work 2011

Para tanto, utilizou-se das premissas da pesquisa qualitativa descritiva, com destaque para a pesquisa documental. No desenvolvimento do texto, além dos autores de referência na área, foram utilizados relatórios institucionais: Organização das Nações Unidas (ONU), Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS), Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (IPEA), Polícia Rodoviária Federal (PRF), e Departamento Nacional de Infraestrutura de Transportes (DNIT). No decorrer deste trabalho são apresentados dados referentes ao número e tipologia dos acidentes, bem como os custos decorrentes destes. Na sequência de estudos temos a análise das duas principais ações em vigor no país, quais sejam: o Código de Trânsito Brasileiro, nas suas várias atualizações, e a Lei nº 11.705, de 19 de junho de 2008, conhecida popularmente como “Lei Seca”, bem como a alteração apresentada na Lei nº 12.769, de 20 de dezembro de 2012. Ao final é realizada uma análise na qual os dados como aumento da frota de veículos, número de multas aplicadas pela PRF e quantidade de acidentes com vítimas fatais são comparados. Destas análises foi concluído que a “Lei Seca” vem contribuindo substancialmente para a redução dos acidentes com vítimas fatais numa queda de 79,12% no número de óbitos. / The main objective of this research is to verify if the current repressive policies in combating violence in traffic have been effective in reducing fatal crashes. Therefore, we used the premises of descriptive qualitative research, with emphasis on documental research. In developing the text, in addition to reference authors in the area, institutional reports were used: the United Nations (UN), World Health Organization (WHO), Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA), Federal Highway Police (PRF) and the National Department of Transport Infrastructure (DNIT). During the course of this paper presents data on the number, type and the coasts of accidents. Following studies we have the analysis of the two main actions in the country, namely: the Brazilian Traffic Code, in its various updates, and Law No. 11.705 of June 19, 2008, popularly known as “Lei Seca” and their adjustment: Law No. 12769 of 20 December 2012. At the we presents an analysis in which the data to increase the fleet of vehicles, number of fines imposed by the PRF and amount of fatal crashes are compared. These analyzes it was concluded that the “Lei Seca” has contributed substantially to the reduction of fatal crashes in a fall of 79.12% in the number of deaths.

This thesis calculates the value of statistical life (VSL) in the Czech Republic based on estimation of fatal risk computed across occupation within industries. Using the regression analysis, I estimate the impact of the fatal risk on wage. From this I calculate the VSL using the hedonic wage model. I use randomized wage data sample with 150 000 observations from the year 2013 combined with injury data from the years 2013-2015. Based on this data I estimated the VSL to be in a range between 6 965 277CZK (260 092EURO) and 37 355 674CZK (1. 394mil.EURO) based on statistically significant estimates of fatal risk. Furthermore, I estimate my model of fatal risk calculated across industries to compare the impact of the level of risk in the computation. This regression indicates that estimates based on risk in industries are overestimated. My results show that the method of risk computation is a key factor affecting the VSL.

Es gibt Fälle von Exitus letalis nach erfolgreich reponierter Dislocatio abomasi. Deren Ursache sowie prognostische Indikatoren zu ermitteln, war das Ziel vorliegender Arbeit. Zunächst wurden alle Rinder mit Exitus letalis zwischen 1990 und 2000 analysiert, die meisten litten an rechtsseitiger oder linksseitiger Disloactio abomasi. Bei diesen Tieren wurden die Befunde der Aufnahmeuntersuchung und der letzten Untersuchung vor dem Exitus letalis erfaßt, analysiert und mit den Befunden von nach linksseitiger oder rechtsseitiger Dislocatio abomasi geheilt entlassenen Tieren verglichen. Die Heilungsaussichten sinken bei rechtsseitiger und linksseitiger Dislocatio abomasi durch geringeren zeitlichen Abstand zur Kalbung, schlechteren Kreislaufzustand, geringere Pansenbewegungen, Hyperbilirubinämie und das Auftreten von Begleiterkrankungen. Bei rechtsseitiger Dislocatio abomasi waren weiterhin Hyponaträmie und Hypokalämie, bei linksseitiger Dislocatio abomasi erhöhte BHB-Konzentrationen, Hypocholsterolämie und Azidosen mit einer schlechten Prognose verbunden.
