Concepção sobre vacinas e condições de vida : estudo das famílias de crianças faltosas à vacinação, Bauru - 2000 /

Gatti, Márcia Aparecida Nuevo. January 2001 (has links)
Orientador: Luiz Roberto de Oliveira / Resumo: O presente estudo refere-se a 79 crianças menores de 6 anos de idade, residentes em um bairro periférico, Pousada da Esperança I e II, cadastradas na Unidade Básica de Saúde da Vila São Paulo, Bauru (SP), faltosas na ficha de registro existente na sala de vacina. Com o objetivo de identificar as características sócio-familiares, grau de conhecimento sobre vacinas, situação vacinal real e razões alegadas que possam estar relacionadas com o atraso no esquema de imunização, foi realizado um inquérito familiar no domicílio com o universo dos faltosos. Do total, foram localizadas 47 crianças, sendo que as perdas foram explicadas pela grande mobilidade das famílias, decorrente da precariedade social que as caracteriza. Trata-se de famílias numerosas do tipo conjugal, em constituição, cujos responsáveis têm baixo grau de escolaridade e encontram-se sem ocupação ou em atividades produtivas predominantemente manuais não qualificadas. Noventa e oito por cento das famílias encontram-se na condição de pobreza, com rendimentos mensais inferiores a 0,25 SMNpc. Encontrou-se uma boa concepção sobre a relevância das vacinas em geral e parte do calendário vacinal. Dentre as razões alegadas para o atraso vacinal, encontram-se: esquecimento, doença da criança, horário de funcionamento da UBS e distância da moradia em relação à UBS. Observou-se, por fim, que 64% das crianças tidas como faltosas pela UBS estavam em dia em relação ao calendário vacinal. Conclui-se que a ênfase educativa deveria incluir todas as vacinas do calendário e que deveria ser adotada a busca ativa na investigação dos faltosos, enquanto o serviço de saúde não for oferecido a todos e não estiver conectado a um sistema de informação integrado. / Abstract: The present study is from 79 children under 6 years of age living on the outskirts of Bauru and surveyed at Unidade Básica de Saúde da Vila São Paulo, who were absent on the vaccine room survey. Aiming to identify social characteristics, vaccines knowledge degree, actual vaccinal situation and referred reasons that could be related to immunization scheme delay, a home inquest was done with the absent ones. In general, 47 children were found, and the absences were explained concerning the great family mobility due to social precariousness. It is a question of a great number of individuals in the family, connubial type, whose responsible individuals have low educational level and are unemployed or in manual unqualified activities. Ninety-eight per cent of families are poor with incomes lesser than 0.25 SMNpc. A good apprehension of vaccine relevance in general and the ones part of vaccinal calendar was found. Among delay reasons are the following: inattention, child disease. UBS working time and distance from their homes. One observed at the end that 64% of children referred to as absents by UBS were updated concerning vaccine calendars. One concluded that emphasis on educational work should include all vaccines from the calendar as well as the need to adopt an active practice of searching the absent ones, while health service is not offered for everyone and the service is connected to a data system. / Mestre

An Analysis of Selected Groups of Education Majors in Terms of Certain Teaching-Related Personal and Social Characteristics

Pannell, Bob Dale 01 1900 (has links)
The major purposes of this study are described as follows: (1) to determine if education majors, classified according to grade-level preference (elementary), subject-matter concentration (secondary), and sequential stage in the teacher education program, differ significantly in certain teaching-related personal and social characteristics; (2) to determine if estimates of certain teaching-related personal and social characteristics of education majors, classified according to grade-level preference (elementary) and subject-matter concentration (secondary) tend to form intercorrelated families of characteristics; (3) to determine if elementary and secondary education students at progressive stages in the teacher education sequence tend to become more or less like experienced teachers comprising the Basic Analysis Sample of the Teacher Characteristics Study.

A Comparison of the Self-Concepts of Negroes and Jews

Hammond, Marilyn Ann 01 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to compare self-concepts of Negroes and Jews. The historical background conditions influencing the development of the Jews and Negroes are beyond the scope of this work and are therefore mentioned only incidentally. Two aspects of these two groups are under consideration: (1) How well or poorly do Jews and Negroes function in contemporary American society? (2) What sort of family life is characteristic of Jews and Negroes? These two aspects are considered important in connection with self-concepts, for the first is at least in part a manifestation of the self-concept, and family life is considered important as the major factor in the development of the self-concept. The self-concept and its development are treated more fully in a later part of this paper.

Egyptian Attitudes toward Democracy: What the Afrobarometer Reveals about the Influence of Individuals' Social Characteristics

Rukhin, Sofia 23 June 2015 (has links)
This study intends to investigate the influence of age, education, gender, degree of religiosity, income, type of residence, interest in public affairs, social and political trust, and employment status on attitudes toward and interpretations of democracy among 1200 Egyptians living in urban and rural areas who participated in Afrobarometer survey in 2013. The author uses principle component and regression analyses to test hypotheses about the state of political culture in Egypt after the Arab Spring of 2011 and before the military coup. The variables age, gender, employment status, residence type, and social trust have not been found significant in any of the observed models. Higher income individuals, compared to those with lower incomes valued democratic principles less - instead preferring unlimited control by one party or President - and were more likely to access the term democracy negatively. More educated citizens tend to positively evaluate occupational gender and rejection of one party-one man rule, while less educated prefer material rights over free and fair elections and freedom of speech. Religious citizens tend to show more support for lawful actions imposed by executive governmental bodies on ordinary citizens than less religious people. Higher levels of political trust is positively associated with attitudes toward the term democracy and one-party and one-man rule. Finally, people interested in public affairs vs. those who are not interested tend to possess negative attitudes toward the term democracy. / Master of Science

Linking Work Design and Corporate Social Responsibility Through an Exploratory Model for the Interdependency of Work Characteristics and Corporate Social Responsibility Orientation

Kurup, Priya Darshini 2011 December 1900 (has links)
Driven by the demands of drastic changes in today’s nature of work due to globalization and technological advances, researchers have continually revisited, redesigned, and restructured work design processes in a quest to identify the key characteristics that can result in desired organizational outcomes. Specifically, in current times, organizations are looking to develop socially responsible outcomes, otherwise referred as corporate social responsibility (CSR). A possible link between work design and CSR has been postulated by researchers, but few studies have emerged where the associations between work design and CSR factors are examined. The purpose of this study was to explore the link between work design and CSR using a work design-CSR conceptual model that was developed based on previous literature. The model depicted relationships between work design factors and CSR factors. Work design factors included work characteristics and worker characteristics. Work characteristics were measured using task, knowledge, social, and contextual characteristics; while worker characteristics were measured using personality traits. CSR Orientation (CSRO) was used as a reflective indicator of CSR at the individual level. The study sample consisted of 941 job incumbents of a public education institution in Texas. The data were collected using an online survey that included the work design questionnaire, the short Big Five Inventory, and the CSRO questionnaire. The model was tested using Structural Equation Modeling. Based on the results, a significant association between work characteristics and CSRO factors were obtained. As hypothesized, associations were found between task characteristics and profit CSRO, and between social characteristics and legal CSRO and philanthropic CSRO. The knowledge characteristics were found to have negative association to philanthropic CSRO. The findings also suggest that jobs that are high on problem solving and job autonomy had a negative association to philanthropic CSRO. Similarly, as the job complexity increased, individuals’ orientation towards profit making decreased, and information processing was found to be linked to legal compliance. Research and practice implications of these results are discussed.

Dessa forma, é importante a caracterização dessa população com objetivo de desenvolver medidas para melhor assisti-las. Objetivo: O objetivo do estudo foi caracterizar o perfil sociodemográfico das gestantes usuárias de drogas acompanhadas num serviço especializado. Método: Trata-se de um estudo de coorte retrospectivo com 111 mulheres acompanhadas durante o pré-natal e parto num serviço especializado. Foram avaliadas as seguintes variáveis: características demográficas, tipo de droga utilizada, períodos de abstinência e de recaída na gestação, repercussões sociais (história de prostituição, antecedentes de problemas judiciais, história de perda da guarda dos filhos, presença de rede de apoio social e afetivo, parceiro usuário de drogas ilícitas). Para a análise estatística, utilizou-se o teste qui-quadrado para as proporções, considerando o nível de significância de 5%. Resultados: O perfil sociodemográfico das gestantes acompanhadas no serviço especializado foi de mulheres adultas, brancas, em união estável, com baixo nível de escolaridade, não trabalhavam e procuraram o serviço tardiamente. A maioria das gestantes eram poliusuárias (três ou mais drogas), sendo que aproximadamente 78% delas ficaram abstinente por um período durante a gestação e 57% ficaram abstinente por mais de três meses durante a gestação. Cerca de um terço das gestantes relataram história de prostituição e problemas judiciais, 55,7% das multíparas tiveram perda da guarda dos filhos e aproximadamente 67% conviviam com parceiro usuário de drogas. Conclusão: O atendimento especializado (grupo psicoterápico e pré-natal) contribui para abstinência ao longo da gestação, uma vez que se sentem acolhidas, restabelecem seus vínculos familiares e são reinseridas no contexto social. Dessa forma, esse estudo mostra que se faz necessário investir em pré-natal especializado a gestantes usuárias de drogas, com equipe de assitênica que possibilite o melhor acolhimneto a essas mulheres. Palavras Chaves: gestação, drogas, características demográficas, características sociais. / The prevalence of illicit drugs and alcohol use in pregnant women has risen sharply in recent years, a problem that is highlighted, since the exposure of these women to drugs may lead to irreversible impairment of the integrity of the mother-child binomial. Thus, it is important to characterize this population in order to develop measures to better assist them. Objective: The purpose of the study was to characterize the sociodemographic profile of pregnant drug users accompanied by a specialized service. Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study with 111 women followed during prenatal care and delivery in a specialized service. The following variables were evaluated: demographic characteristics, type of drug used, periods of abstinence and relapse during pregnancy, social repercussions (history of prostitution, history of legal problems, history of loss of child custody, presence of social support network and affective, drug user partner). For the statistical analysis, the chi-square test was used for the proportions, considering the level of significance of 5%. Results: The sociodemographic profile of the pregnant women followed by the specialized service was of white women, in a stable union, with low level of schooling, unemployed and sought the service belatedly. Most of the pregnant women were polyusers (three or more drugs), and approximately 78% of them were abstinent for a period during pregnancy and 57% were abstinent for more than three months during gestation. About one-third of the pregnant women reported a history of prostitution and legal problems, 55.7% of the multiparous women had lost custody of their children and approximately 67% lived with a drug-using partner. Conclusion: The specialized care (psychotherapeutic and prenatal group) contributes to abstinence during pregnancy, once they feel welcomed, reestablish their family ties and are reinserted in the social context. Thus, this study shows that it is necessary to invest in specialized prenatal care for pregnant drug users, with a assistential team that allows groups of care to these women. Key-Words: gestation, drugs, demographic characteristics, social characteristics.
