Autoria: as injunções do jogo significante

Santos, Maria Aparecida dos 29 September 2015 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2016-04-28T18:23:10Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Maria Aparecida dos Santos.pdf: 308091 bytes, checksum: 3660b2d9e157cc28c8e2f02c049970b6 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-09-29 / This thesis retakes the issue of authorship, discussed in the text of Michel Foucault ([1969] 2002), "What is an author?" The aim is to (re)put the issue of authorship from another angle, not determined only by the imaginary vertex, where the author is situated as the origin of his act. Foucault, albeit in another position, discussing the author's notion undermines the identification/strict linkage and traditional between author and individual proposing the authorfunction for inspecting relationship between the author and the text. For that, it considered that the statement of indifference is an immanent rule of contemporary writing. A writing that, according to Foucault, is not obliged with an interiority, since it's "set of signs headed fewer by its content meaning that by nature itself of the signifier" (Foucault, [1969] 2002). Two reasons explored in this thesis delimit the meaning of "indifference" in Foucault's work: (1) the writing has freed up to connecting to a subjective expression - it only refers to itself; (2) the writing is related to the death. To observe the operation of this set of signs, when discussing authorship, parts it from the reading language while system described by Saussure ([1916] 2006), seeking to raise: (1) "as Foucault articulates the relation with the exterior of speech and language that only knows its own order (laws of internal reference of the language)" ?; (2) How relates set of signs and the nature of the signifier? and (3) "the Saussurian concept of the language, defined as" value system "is present in Foucault's discussion of the authorship?". The answers to these questions were related to the theoretical framework established by the Research Group Acquisition, disease and clinical language (LAEL-Derdic / CNPq), that Prof. Dra. Maria Francisca Lier-DeVitto and Prof. Dra. Lucia Arantes are coordinators. The importance attributed to there to its own language and the significant allowed a differentiated reading with respect to Foucault's discussions, second a target other than represented a return to Saussure (MILNER, 2002) in the 1980s. The nature of significant pointed to constitutive tensions and to a faulty connection in the articulation of a work or a text to a subject - there is non-coincidence of the subject with himself, and also non-coincidence of him with his writing. The focus on significant (and not in the meaning), where there is an emphasis on laws of internal reference of language (and not in the discursive externality), demanded differences from the discussion of the issue of authorship, indicating advances and limitations in its questioning by the philosopher / Esta tese retoma a questão da autoria, abordada no texto de Michel Foucault ([1969] 2002): O que é um autor? . O objetivo é (re) colocar a problemática da autoria por outro ângulo, não determinado unicamente pelo vértice do imaginário, em que o autor se encontra situado como origem de seu ato. Foucault, ainda que de outra posição, ao discutir a noção de autor, abala a identificação/ligação estreita e tradicional entre autor e indivíduo, ao propor a função-autor para o exame das relações entre o autor e o texto. Para tanto, considerou que na indiferença do enunciado encontra-se uma regra imanente da escrita contemporânea. Uma escrita que, segundo Foucault, não se obriga com uma interioridade, já que é jogo de signos comandado menos por seu conteúdo significado do que pela própria natureza do significante (FOUCAULT, [1969]2002). Dois motivos explorados nesta tese circunscrevem o sentido de indiferença na obra de Foucault: (1) a escrita libertou-se da ligação a uma expressão subjetiva - ela só se refere a si própria; (2) a escrita tem parentesco com a morte. Para observar o funcionamento deste jogo de signos, quando se discute autoria, parte-se da leitura da língua enquanto sistema descrito por Saussure ([1916] 2006), buscando levantar: (1) como Foucault articula a relação com a exterioridade do discurso e a língua, que só conhece sua ordem própria (as leis de referência interna da linguagem)?; (2) De que modo relaciona jogo de signos e a natureza do significante? e (3) o conceito saussuriano de a língua, definida como sistema de valores está presente na discussão foucaultiana sobre a autoria? As respostas a esses questionamentos foram relacionados ao referencial teórico estabelecido pelo Grupo de Pesquisa Aquisição, patologias e clínica de linguagem (LAELDerdic/ CNPq), de que a Profa. Dra. Maria Francisca Lier-DeVitto e a Profa. Dra. Lúcia Arantes são coordenadoras. A importância ali atribuída à ordem própria da língua e ao significante permitiu uma leitura diferenciada em relação às discussões de Foucault, segunda uma visada outra do que representou o retorno a Saussure (MILNER, 2002) nos anos de 1980. A natureza do significante apontou para tensões constitutivas e para uma relação faltosa na articulação de uma obra ou texto a um sujeito há não-coincidência do sujeito consigo mesmo, e também não-coincidência dele com sua escrita. A aposta no significante (e não no significado), em que há ênfase nas leis de referência interna da linguagem (e não na exterioridade discursiva), demandaram diferenças em relação à discussão da questão da autoria, indicando avanços e limitações em sua problematização pelo filósofo

Energy use by individual office workers : psychological and contextual influences on behaviour

Littleford, Clare January 2013 (has links)
Research into energy demand in office buildings has tended to focus on building fabric or systems, or the organisation as a whole, rather than the actions or motivations of individual building occupants. This study applies an attitude-behaviour approach used more frequently with household or travel behaviours to energy demand behaviours by individual occupants in office settings. The approach is extended to include contextual factors such as behavioural control, organisational expectations and social influences. Comparisons are drawn between the office and home settings. The study took place in the offices of two local authorities, Nottingham City Council and Nottinghamshire County Council, and included a questionnaire survey (n=819), semi-structured interviews (n=9), and building surveys (n=5). Behaviours examined included switching off lights, computers and computer monitors. Lighting behaviours were reported to be carried out more frequently than computer monitor behaviours in both the office and household settings. Analysis of behaviours identified that they needed to be considered at a specific level, according to the equipment (lighting, computer monitors), setting (office, home), and triggers (finishing a task, leaving a room). The physical context of the behaviour was particularly important. Different levels of individual control over energy affected the performance of behaviours. No evidence was found to support the notion of spillover that enacting one energy demand behaviour might lead to the enactment of further energy demand behaviours, including for similar behaviours performed in different settings (e.g. the office and the home). Organisational, social and psychological/attitudinal influences on individual behaviour were also examined. Structural Equation Modelling examined influences proposed by the Theory of Planned Behaviour and Values-Beliefs-Norms Theory. Neither theory provided a strong explanation of the collected data. However, support was found for the Perceived Behavioural Control construct, while moral and value-led constructs had a small influence on behaviour. This thesis provides recommendations for practitioners and policy makers seeking to reduce individual-level energy demand in office settings, and for future research into energy use in organisational settings. Recommendations include promoting energy saving as an aspect of professionalism, characterising energy demand behaviours specifically by setting and equipment, and recognising the importance of the social aspects of shared office environments.

Právní úprava posuzování vlivů záměrů na životní prostředí / The legal regulation of the environmental impact assessment

Vondrášková, Terezie January 2019 (has links)
The main goal of this thesis is to provide a description and analysis of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), which is one of the significant legal tools of environmental quality protection. This process precedes the development consent to the project and his purpose is to identify and comprehensively evaluate environmental impact of a project. The first part of this thesis is focused on the international and European legal context of the EIA. This part introduces the key international treaties related to the EIA (the Aarhus Convention and the Espoo Convention), then an example of the EIA's integration into policy of one of the international organisations (an example of the World Bank) and the reflection if the EIA procedure can be considered as part of the international customary law. In the second part of this chapter the context of the European law (especially the revised Directive 2011/92/EU) and the current Czech legal regulation is outlined. The second part of this thesis consists of the analysis of the Czech legal regulation of the EIA under the Act No. 100/2001 Coll., on the Environmental Impact Assessment, with the emphasis on its recent amendments (especially the amendment of Act No. 326/2017 Coll. effective from 1 November 2017). In this part the essential elements of the EIA...

O cônjuge acompanhante é o homem: compreendendo a experiência masculina na expatriação de sua esposa executiva / The man as the accompanying significant other: understanding the male experience in expatriation of an executive wife

Rapôso, Lecticia Maria Zambrano de Araújo 12 September 2014 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2016-04-28T20:38:56Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Lecticia Maria Zambrano de Araujo Raposo.pdf: 1081160 bytes, checksum: b9da787202973f9f41296ba6913198ad (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014-09-12 / The growth of feminine access to high end positions in the corporate world is a global phenomenon which enables women to reach promotions and expatriation opportunities as well as the traditional group of men in corporate jobs.This dissertation´s goal is to know and understand the experience of men´s lives as an accompanying life partner during the expatriation of their wives, attempting to comprehend the differences in experiences.It is a qualitative study which used the life-story method to investigate the lives of three childless men in their thirties who interrupted their careers in order to follow their wives in a new country. Results confirm and broaden previous research papers helping us better understand the connections of themes such as expatriation, double career marriages and gender studies. Personal traits and shared decisions were aspects seen to favor adaptation in foreign countries. Double-career marriages seem to be unique and express a specific manner of functioning through flexible deals and more creative solutions when searching for solutions to achieve mutual satisfaction. The challenges of masculinity, considering the men are temporarily out of work, seemed to be work related and brought forth by the need to internally negotiate and to negotiate with the outside world the prerogatives of belonging to a hegemonic group. This conflict is shown in the desire to keep an active career and to keep investing time and energy in a career. Results show clearly that there is felt pressure into keeping the cultural and personal concepts of masculinity, maintenance of power and the existence of social mechanisms of correction of deviated behavior / O crescente acesso feminino a postos de maior destaque e visibilidade no mundo corporativo é um fenômeno global, possibilitando também às mulheres oportunidades de expatriação assim como ao grupo tradicional de executivos homens. Desta forma, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo conhecer a experiência do homem na sua vivência como cônjuge acompanhante, durante a expatriação de sua esposa executiva, procurando compreender as particularidades desta experiência.Tratou-se de um estudo qualitativo que utilizou a metodologia de história de vida para conhecer a vivência de três homens na faixa dos 30 anos, sem filhos, que interromperam suas carreiras e acompanharam suas mulheres na designação internacional. Os resultados obtidos reafirmam e ampliam vários resultados trazidos pela literatura consultada, favorecendo o entendimento da conexão de temas como expatriação, casamento de dupla carreira e gênero. Características pessoais e decisões compartilhadas foram aspectos que favoreceram a adaptação no exterior. Os casamentos de dupla carreira se mostraram únicos e expressaram um funcionamento particular e específico, por meio de acordos flexíveis e da procura de alternativas criativas para conseguir satisfação mútua. Os desafios à masculinidade, na medida em que estariam temporariamente sem trabalho, trouxeram aos nossos participantes a necessidade de negociarem consigo mesmo e com o mundo social as prerrogativas de pertencer ao grupo hegemônico, manifesto em manterem-se ativos e investindo na carreira. Ficou claro o quanto os resultados evidenciaram como o homem é pressionado para manter-se, sustentando o masculino , como o poder deve ser garantido, e como há mecanismos sociais de correção dos desvios

As relações interpessoais dos usuários de crack e fatores de risco associados

Pachado, Mayra Pacheco January 2017 (has links)
O crack é a substância ilícita que mais leva à busca por tratamento para uso de substâncias no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). Os usuários frequentemente relatam dificuldades nos seus relacionamentos interpessoais, no entanto ter relacionamentos saudáveis é crucial para o processo de recuperação. As evidências até agora demonstram que além do uso de substâncias psicoativas, outros fatores da vida do sujeito, como características sociodemográficas, dificuldades emocionais, comportamentais e sociais podem se tornar barreiras para o resgate e cultivo de relacionamentos saudáveis. Sendo assim, a presente dissertação teve por objetivo investigar a associação entre severidade dos problemas no funcionamento interpessoal dos usuários de crack e fatores de risco associados, tais como características sociodemográficas, fatores relacionados ao uso de substâncias do paciente, de seus parceiros, familiares e amigos e comorbidades psiquiátricas. Este foi um estudo transversal multicêntrico, com a participação de homens e mulheres (N=407), em tratamento para problemas por uso de crack, na rede de saúde pública de seis capitais brasileiras. A magnitude de associação entre o desfecho (T-score: problemas na área Família/Social) e os fatores em estudo (características sociodemográficas, comorbidades psiquiátricas, exposição a eventos estressores na vida, uso recente de substâncias psicoativas, dados sobre o consumo de substâncias pelos usuários, seu parceiro, familiares adultos e amigos e envolvimento com atividades ilícitas) foi avaliada através da razão de prevalência (RP), estimada pela regressão de Poisson com variância robusta. Ter diagnóstico de abuso de álcool, transtorno de estresse pós-traumático, transtorno da personalidade antissocial, episódio depressivo atual e o número de dias consumindo crack no último mês estava significativamente associado com maior severidade nos problemas na área Família/Social. Os achados deste estudo demonstram uma relação entre maior frequência de uso de crack e co-morbidades psiquiátricas com ter mais problemas nos relacionamentos com parceiros, familiares e amigos. Sendo a reinserção social, uma conquista fundamental para a recuperação, nossos achados apontam que, além do uso de crack em si, outros elementos podem representar barreiras para o bom funcionamento social destas pessoas. Estes resultados advogam em favor do desenvolvimento de intervenções psicossociais que foquem na melhora do funcionamento interpessoal de usuários de crack e a inclusão de familiares e amigos nas abordagens terapêuticas. Além disso, sugere-se o oferecimento de tratamento concomitante para as comorbidades psiquiátricas. / Crack-cocaine is the illicit psychoactive substance that most leads to substance use treatment seeking in the Unified Health System (SUS). Users frequently report difficulties in interpersonal relationships, yet having healthy relationships is crucial to the process of recovery. Evidence so far demonstrate that in addition to psychoactive substance use, other factors in the user’s life, such as sociodemographic characteristics, emotional, behavioral, and social problems, may become barriers to the rescue and cultivation of healthy relationships. Thus, the present dissertation aimed to investigate the association between severity of problems in interpersonal functioning of crack-cocaine users and related risk factors such as sociodemographic characteristics, consumption of psychoactive substances by users, partners, adult relatives and friends, and psychiatric comorbidities. This was a multicenter cross-sectional study, involving men and women (N = 407), undergoing treatment for their crack-cocaine use in public health facilities of six Brazilian capitals. The magnitude of association between the outcome (T-score: problems in the Family/Social area) and factors under study (sociodemographic characteristics, psychiatric comorbidities, exposure to lifetime stressful events, data regarding the use of psychoactive substances by users, their partner, adult relatives and friends and engagement in illicit activities) was evaluated by the prevalence ratio (PR), estimated by Poisson regression with robust variance. Having a comorbid diagnosis of alcohol abuse, posttraumatic stress disorder, antisocial personality disorder, current depressive episode and the number of days of crack use in the last month was significantly associated with greater severity in the problems in the Family/Social area. These findings demonstrate a relationship between higher frequency of use of crack cocaine and psychiatric comorbidities with more problems in relationships with partners, family and friends. Since social reintegration is a fundamental achievement for recovery, our findings indicate that, besides the use of crack itself, other elements may represent barriers to the social functioning of these people. These results support development of psychosocial interventions that focus in the improvement of interpersonal relationships of crack cocaine users and the inclusion of family and friends in the treatment. In addition, it is suggested that interventions should target concomitant treatment for psychiatric comorbidities.

O terceiro passo na escolha de uma profissão / The third step in choosing a profession

Yamaguishi, Roger Augusto Ikemori 17 April 2015 (has links)
Distanciar a escolha profissional de uma concepção egóica, mantendo-se numa abordagem clínica é um desafio, porém, não deixa de ser uma escolha de perspectiva. A questão, portanto, é pensar nessa escolha fazendo uso dos recursos psicanalíticos de modo a se afastar da concepção de ego consciente apenas (o que não significa desconsiderá-la), sem se distanciar do ego em si. O ponto de partida é o eu inconsciente, essa parte inconsciente do próprio eu, saindo da concepção de um ego forte e autônomo, o que leva a uma consideração pelo próprio inconsciente nessa escolha: será tratado como articulado por representações de coisa, em Freud, e como discurso do Outro via significante, em Lacan nos dois casos há um tratamento da e pela palavra. Essa é uma perspectiva que vem através de atendimentos que colocaram questões para o clínico e pesquisador da presente dissertação, questões quanto à emergência de formações do inconsciente. A busca por respostas para essas questões constitui os dois primeiros passos desta dissertação. Achar uma resposta está no terceiro passo: trata-se da criação a partir de um vazio fundante, herdado desde os pais, mas que cada filho deve saber conquistar e possuir. Um caso analisado de forma vertical é apresentado de tal maneira, pois suas questões é que promoveram as teorizações das passagens desse terceiro passo. Vinhetas clínicas acompanham esse caminhar nos passos, para fazer uso de sua força ilustrativa e pela ajuda no achar das questões / To distance the professional choice of an ego conception, maintaining a clinical approach is a challenge, but it is still a choice of perspective. The question, therefore, is to consider the choice making use of psychoanalytic resources in order to move away from the concept of a conscious ego only (which does not mean ignoring it), without distancing himself from the ego itself. The starting point is the unconscious I, this unconscious part of I, leaving the concept of a strong and self-governed ego, which leads to a consideration for the own unconscious in this choice: will be treated as articulated by representations of thing in Freud, and as the speech of the Other via significant, in Lacan - in both cases there is a treat of and by the word. This is a perspective that comes through treatments that raised questions for the clinician and researcher of this dissertation, issues concerning the emergency unconscious formations. The search for answers to these questions is the first two steps of this dissertation. Finding an answer is the third step: it is the creation from an empty founding, inherited from parents, but that every child should learn to conquer and possess. A vertically analyzed case is presented in such a way, because your questions is that promoted the theories of the passages that third step. Clinical vignettes follow this walk in steps, to make use of their illustrative power and for helping to find questions

Effects of a Software Program vs. Constant Time Delay in the Acquisition of Sight Words for a Student with Significant Disabilities

Algharbie, Turkie Ali 01 December 2015 (has links)
The development of sight words is essential for individuals with significant disability. There is a plethora of research highlighting the acquisition of sight words for this population but to date, most focus on teacher led interventions (Browder, Algrim-Delzell, Spooner, Mims, & Baker, 2009). This study investigated the use of computer technology vs. one-on-one instruction targeting sight words acquisition for a student with a significant disability. Results showed the participant indicated improved performance using the computer based intervention versus the constant time delay instructor led intervention.

Mims, Pamela J., Stranger, Carol, Pennington, R., White, W., Sears, J., Strickler, N. 01 January 2017 (has links)
Increasingly, technology has been used to provide access to academic curricula for students with moderate to severe intellectual disability. In the current pilot study, we used a multiple probe across participants design to evaluate the effectiveness of a technology-based instructional package on the opinion writing skills of three middle school students with moderate and severe intellectual disability. Findings suggest that the intervention resulted in improved performance across all three participants and that all participants maintained performance at levels greater than baseline. Limitations and implications for practice and future research are discussed.
