Male adolescents' sense of self after reintegration into schools in the Western Cape / Melanie Bernhardt

Bernhardt, Melanie January 2012 (has links)
This study focuses on the sense of self of adolescents when they are reintegrated into schools after dropping out. Dropout is a global phenomenon and yet very little research has been undertaken regarding reintegration and especially the successful reintegration of adolescents and how this reintegration affects their sense of self. The goal of the study was to determine how reintegrated adolescents experience their reintegration into schools, and how this has affected them in terms of how they see themselves. The research hoped to discover what personal difficulties the adolescents had overcome in their return to school as well as the motivating factors that would keep the reintegrated adolescents in school. The research was conducted from a phenomenological Gestalt, field approach and followed a qualitative research design within an interpretivist framework. This research design allows the participants to give meaning to their own experiences. A total of six adolescent boys between the ages of 13 and 17 were purposefully selected from the informal settlement of Groenheuwel, Paarl in the Western Cape. Five of the six adolescents had been reintegrated into schools in 2011 and 2012 by the Khula Development Group. One adolescent participant was a peer educator and although he had never dropped out, he contributed meaningful data on how reintegrated adolescents are experienced as seen from his role as a peer educator. Other participants in the research included the Headmaster of Groenheuwel Primary School and the President and Project leader of the Khula Development Group. The qualitative data were collected in the form of individual open-ended interviews with the adolescents, project leader and headmaster. The researcher’s objective was to understand and interpret the meanings the participants gave to their own experiences, which was further done through observation, member checking, and a reflective group discussion including the application of an art technique. The interviews were recorded on DVD. The reflective group discussion was held with the adolescent participants two weeks after the individual interviews. The group discussion included an art technique, where the adolescents were asked to create their experiences of their return to school in clay. This session was also recorded on DVD. Recordings were transcribed by the researcher to ascertain certain emerging themes and categories. Thematic data analysis was used to transform the transcribed data into meaningful information. The principles and strategies for enhancing the trustworthiness of the data were done through crystallisation. The findings of the study revealed the unrealistic expectations with which the adolescents view their sense of self. / Thesis (MA (Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2013

A partir da produção de crianças e adolescentes pobres no Brasil em que historicamente a relação em governá-las passa inicialmente pelo poder pastoral chegando ao biopoder na contemporaneide. Fundamenta-se na perspectiva foucaultiana em que as relações de poder–saber são construídas fundamentalmente através das produções históricas e políticas do homem. Neste sentido, a sexualidade é considerada como um dispositivo histórico de poder na sociedade ocidental. Desta forma, dada à sua plasticidade, a sexualidade é utilizada como estratégia de ação da biopolítica com o objetivo disciplinar de controle social da população. A partir dos diversos discursos, práticas e saberes normalizadores existentes nas ciências humanas o foco destes discursos não se encontra na proibição mas na maneira como a sexualidade deve ser regulada, controlada e normatizada. Investigamos os processos de subjetivação dos adolescentes a partir da sua forma de ser, pensar, sentir e das suas vivências, passando pela experiência de rua e situação de permanência no abrigo. Na construção da pesquisa utilizamos técnicas, recursos e instrumentos que nos possibilitaram coletar os dados tais como, a observação, diário de campo, roteiro de vista, entrevista semi-estruturada e também a produção de colagem e desenho a partir da interpretação dos adolescentes. O exercício da sexualidade foi demarcado a partir da iniciação sexual deles. Constatamos através dos discursos deste grupo que há um feixe de aprendizagens que atravessam os saberes e as práticas sexuais relativos à sexualidade destes adolescentes, destacamos fundamentalmente a prática discursiva do abrigo através do modelo anátomo-biológico em que produz valor de verdade, apontando comportamentos, atitudes, na relação poder-saber da sexualidade associando-a à prevenção de doenças (DST’S e AIDS) e risco de gravidez. No entanto, os adolescentes apresentam os sentidos produzidos acerca da sexualidade para a ordem do prazer, da satisfação imediata, do tesão, de sensações agradáveis e boas. Dessa forma, escapam do discurso institucional através do afeto, da emoção que constituem os processos de formação de sua subjetividade.
