Full textAbstract:
A presente dissertação tem como corpus as tragédias Alceste, de Eurípedes e A Falecida de Nelson Rodrigues. Dois autores que viveram há vários séculos de distância um do outro; e que oferecem para a posteridade obras que apresentam semelhanças e analogias dignas de um estudo cuidadoso.
Buscamos demonstrar como Nelson Rodrigues, em A Falecida apropria-se do texto antigo e ainda que a utilização do riso, nas tragédias analisadas, não se dá com a função de criar um momento de descontração e leveza, mas, ao contrário, pra programar uma sucessão de emoções que conduzam para o insólito, o absurdo, o conflito apórico.
Através do estudo do riso, como elemento de construção do trágico, verifcamos que a apropriação do texto antigo foi feita a partir de analogias, inversões e ou deslocamentos; verificamos, também , mais perifericamente , a possibilidade de ler essas obras a partir do conceito de tragédia estabelecido na Poética de Aristóteles; para tanto confrontamo-las com os princípios aristotélicos e constatamos a insuficiência dessa teoria para essas obras, concluímos que há muito por fazer da tragédia visto que nem todos os aspectos receberam por parte dos téoricos a mesma importância.

Essa pesquisa descreve a representação que os idosos da zona rural e urbana do interior do Estado de Pernambuco têm sobre a morte e quais as implicações dessa representação em suas vidas. Considera-se idoso o indivíduo com 60 anos ou mais, em consonância com a Política Nacional dos Idosos PNI. A Teoria das Representações Sociais (TRS) foi utilizada como aparato teóricometodológico para análise e discussão dos dados. A justificativa para se estudar o significado da morte e da velhice está no fato de os dois temas serem considerados tabus, dentro da nossa sociedade, e por isso silenciados. O fato de se realizar a coleta em uma cidade do interior do Estado explica-se pela pouca visibilidade dessa região em pesquisas acadêmicas na área de Psicologia. Além disso, supõe-se que os valores e religiosidade do povo do interior, diferentes daqueles do homem urbano, repercutem em suas concepções sobre a morte. Para a presente pesquisa foram selecionados 100 idosos de ambos os gêneros, da cidade de Carnaíba, uma cidade em que a pesquisadora contava com apoio institucional para realizar o trabalho. A coleta de dados foi feita por meio de uma entrevista semi-estruturada, em que constavam questões relacionadas ao contexto de vida dos sujeitos e indagações referentes à morte. Os dados foram analisados com o auxílio do software ALCESTE que realiza uma análise do corpus da entrevista, fornecendo resultados que favorecem tanto uma análise qualitativa, quanto quantitativa. Com esta análise obtiveram-se cinco classes, divididas em dois eixos. No primeiro eixo encontrou-se a categoria que se refere ao contexto de vida e atividades diárias dos indivíduos. O segundo eixo foi subdividido em três categorias: problemas de saúde/ tratamento; morte (conceito); e morte (seus atributos/ sentimentos). Foi possível verificar que falar da morte causa desconforto entre os indivíduos pesquisados, além de ser associada a sentimentos de caráter pejorativo, como: traiçoeira. Convém ressaltar que os homens (23) apesar do número reduzido com relação às mulheres (77) se destacaram como sujeitos predominantes da classe que fala da morte (seus atributos/ sentimentos); enquanto que as mulheres foram sujeitos típicos da classe que retratou as atividades diárias. A grande maioria dos idosos apontou que são eles que mais adoecem e mais morrem, associando a velhice à morte. Com esses resultados abre-se um leque de interpretações a respeito de como os idosos vivenciam a morte, sendo ela atrelada à velhice e carregada de sentidos pejorativos

Full textAbstract:
Species across many taxa display site fidelity, the tendency to return to previous used areas, particularly during important periods of life, such as at mating and reproduction. In general, it is expected that familiarity to an area is beneficial, and the ability to return to the same area for specific life history events should therefore have a fitness benefit. Efficient wildlife management relies on good knowledge about the tendency of the target species to display site fidelity. Here, I investigated to what extent moose show seasonal variation in site fidelity and to what extent site fidelity was related to sex, reproductive status and the tendency to conduct seasonal migration. I expected site fidelity to vary according to the costs and benefits of sex and reproductive status, and that site fidelity in spring and autumn was low due to large annual variation in important environmental conditions (green-up and snow fall). Absolute site fidelity was measured as the distance between the location on a given date and the location on the same date the following year, where a short distance indicates high site fidelity. I also calculated a relative measure of site fidelity as the absolute site fidelity after accounting for individual space use. The results revealed that site fidelity was highest in summer and lowest in autumn. Resident moose displayed higher site fidelity than migratory and females more than males, whereas no differences were found between reproductive statuses of females. During the rutting/hunting period, males showed considerably lower site fidelity than females, while there was no difference between females of different reproductive status. These results suggest that the accuracy of predicting an individual's location from one year to the next varies with sex and movement strategy and is particularly low for migratory male moose in autumn. The results may have several implications for management. For instance a more precise population estimates can be obtained by performing censuses during the period of the year with high site fidelity, i.e. late summer or mid-winter. Furthermore, as the migratory part of the population may show large annual variations in local densities it is essential that knowledge exists about the general movement patterns in the population. Combined, these aspects call for a large-scale management of Norwegian moose populations.

Full textAbstract:
The moose (Alces alces) is very important both economically and ecologically, therefore all knowledge of moose is vital for future management of the moose population. Little is known about moose habitat selection in Sweden. In coastal southwestern Sweden growing human population and new infrastructure projects continuously threaten to fragment and isolate local moose populations. The habitat selection of 22 moose, 8 males and 14 females, in southwestern Sweden was studied from February 2002 until December 2005. The moose were captured and fitted with GPS-collars and positions were collected at 2-hour intervals. The number of moose positions totaled 71103 during the study period of 46 months. Data for individual animals were divided into four seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter based on climate and moose biology. A total of 125 moose seasonal home ranges were generated and habitat use within each of the generated home ranges was studied using Euclidean distance-based analysis. A reclassified digital landcover map was divided into the land use classes agriculture, clear-cut, coniferous forest, deciduous forest, mire and mountain. The results showed that there was a difference in habitat selection between males and females. Males were significantly closer to forest and clear-cuts compared to females. Both males and females selected clear-cuts and avoided agriculture within their home ranges.
Älgen är en viktig art, både ekonomiskt och ekologiskt, och all kunskap är viktig för att även i framtiden kunna sköta en sund älgstam. Trots flertalet studier finns det många frågetecken om älgens habitatval i Sverige. En ökad exploateringstakt och nya infrastrukturprojekt hotar att fragmentera och isolera populationer av älg. Habitatvalet hos 22 älgar, 8 tjurar och 14 kor, i sydvästra Sverige studerades mellan februari 2002 och december 2005. Älgarna sövdes och utrustades med GPS-sändare, deras positioner registrerades varannan timma och det totala antalet positioner under den 46 månader långa studietiden var 71103 stycken. Data från varje älg delades in i 4 säsonger; vår, sommar, höst och vinter, baserat på klimat och älgens biologi. Totalt genererades 125 hemområden baserade på säsong, och valet av habitat inom varje hemområde studerades med hjälp av Euclidean distance-based analysis. En omklassificerad digital marktäckedata användes som var indelad i 6 olika klasser; odlad mark, hygge, barrskog, lövskog, myrmark och berg i dagen. Resultaten visade att det var skillnad mellan könen i hur de väljer habitat. Tjurarna var signifikant närmare barrskog och hyggen än korna, men både tjurar och kor selekterade för hyggen och undvek odlad mark inom deras hemområden.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined what separates a crossing site from an available crossing site and investigate when and where roads are more likely to be crossed by moose (Alces alces). Five seasonal models for two sexes were selected using an information-theoretic approach based on Akaike’s Information Criteria. Crossings were expected to be more likely during times of increased moose activity, and in areas of preferred moose habitat.There were clear temporal effects of moose road-crossing probability, both within and between seasons: crossings were most likely to occur during the twilight hours. The influence of habitat and climate was much lower than expected, which lead to difficulties in creating spatially predictive statistical models. Nevertheless, high quality forage attracted crossings, while ruggedness, human disturbance and snow depth dissuaded them. It is therefore possible to predict spatially varying crossing probabilities across varying seasons, but it is difficult to produce management recommendations on this basis. Moose-vehicle collision-mitigating actions should therefore be focused on the temporal scale and management of the moose population density.

Full textAbstract:
Este estudo objetiva analisar as representações sociais da aids produzidas por enfermeiras atuantes em dois níveis distintos de atenção aos sujeitos que vivem com HIV/Aids e suas implicações para o cuidado desenvolvido por esse grupo profissional. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório-descritivo, pautado na abordagem qualitativa, orientado pela Teoria das Representações Sociais, em sua abordagem processual. Os sujeitos do estudo foram enfermeiras, atuantes em instituições públicas de saúde da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, sendo 10 da rede hospitalar e 9 da rede básica. A coleta de dados deu-se por meio de um roteiro de entrevista semi-estruturada e um questionário de caracterização. Para a análise dos dados foi utilizada a técnica de análise lexical, realizada pelo software Alceste 4.10. Na análise do grupo total de sujeitos foram definidas seis categorias: "Memórias sócio profissionais de enfermeiras sobre o HIV/Aids", abordando os atores sociais atingidos pela aids no passado e na atualidade, as memórias das enfermeiras sobre aids e os estereótipos presentes em cada período; "O cuidado relacionado à autoproteção ao HIV/Aids", referindo-se as medidas de proteção ao HIV/Aids adotadas pelas enfermeiras tanto em suas vidas profissionais quanto pessoais; "Dimensões práticas do atendimento e do cuidado", destacando elementos do cotidiano assistencial, com ênfase nas diferentes formas de compreensão do cuidado; "As famílias atingidas pela aids", com conteúdos relativos às vivências das enfermeiras em situações da aids no contexto familiar; "As políticas públicas e instituicionais e a aids", relativa as percepções das enfermeiras sobre as políticas de saúde; "O tratamento medicamentoso do HIV/Aids", com conteúdos relativos às dificuldades percebidas para a adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso por parte dos sujeitos com HIV/Aids. A análise cruzada da variável nível de atenção permitiu observar que a representação da aids no grupo de enfermeiras da rede hospitalar encontra-se ancorada em elementos negativos relativos ao passado, embora apontem também para novos elementos representacionais no presente; enquanto as enfermeiras de rede básica representam a aids a partir de elementos relativos à prática assistencial cotidiana. A representação da aids para o grupo de enfermeiras estudado abarca elementos tais como: sentimento de insegurança em relação ao próprio parceiro, devido a situações que vivenciam, imagem dos sujeitos que vivem com HIV/Aids em transição devido às mudanças ocorridas no perfil epidemiológico; atitudes distintas no campo profissional, relacionadas às formas de contágio e persistência de identificação dos sujeitos que vivem com HIV/Aids como vítimas ou culpados. Apesar de afirmarem inexistir diferenças no cuidado de enfermagem às pessoas que vivem com o HIV/Aids quando comparado ao cuidado aos sujeitos com outras patologias, enfatizam a necessidade de maior cautela devido ao risco de contágio em relação aos primeiros, caracterizando uma contradição no discurso. Conclui-se que existem diferenças nas representações sociais das enfermeiras de acordo com o nível de atenção no qual atuam e que há repercussões singulares na forma que o cuidado de enfermagem é desenvolvido, a partir dessas representações.This study intends to analyze social representations of AIDS produced by nurses working in two distinct levels of care for individuals living with HIV/AIDS and its implications for nursing care developed by these professionals. This is an exploratory descriptive study, based on a qualitative approach, guided by the theory of social representation as procedural approach. The study participants were nurses working in public health institutions in the city of Rio de Janeiro, 10 of them on the hospital network and 9 of them on basic network. Data collection was performed by a roadmap for semi-structured interviews and a characterization questionnaire. Lexical Analysis technique was used, performed by the software Alceste 4.10. In the analysis of the general group, six categories of analysis emerged: "Social-Professional memories of nurses about HIV/AIDS", addressing social actors affected by AIDS in the past and at present, the memories of the nurses about AIDS and the stereotypes; "The care related to self-protection from HIV/AIDS", referring to the protective procedures adopted by nurses in their lives both professionally and personally against HIV/AIDS, "Practical Dimensions of treatment and nursing care, bringing elements of daily care, especially for different forms of understanding care; "Families affected by AIDS," with content relating to the experiences of nurses with AIDS cases in the family context, "Public, institutional policies and AIDS", with contents relating to how policies health are perceived by nurses, "Drug treatment of HIV/AIDS", with content related to perceived difficulties in adherence to drug treatment by individuals with HIV/AIDS. The analysis of the variable "area of attention" permitted to observe that the representation of AIDS among nurses working at hospital network is anchored in negative elements related to the past, although it also points to new representational elements at present; basic network nurses represent AIDS from elements related to daily nursing care. It was possible to see that the representation of AIDS among the nursing staff studied encompasses elements such as feelings of insecurity about their own partner, because the situations they experience, transition in images of the subjects living with HIV/AIDS, due to changes in their epidemiological profile, different attitudes in the professional field related to forms of contagion and persistence on identification of individuals living with HIV/AIDS as victims or perpetrators. Despite claiming nonexistence of differences in nursing care for people living with HIV/AIDS care in relation to any other client, nurses emphasize the need for greater caution due to the risk of contagion, thus presenting a contradiction in their speech. Its possible to conclude that there are differences in social representations of nurses according to the level of attention to individuals who live with HIV/AIDS and that there are unique repercussions in the way nursing care is developed from these representations.

Previous issue date: 2012-05-22Ao longo dos últimos trinta anos, os profissionais da Psicologia têm buscado conhecer suas práticas profissionais. Tem-se feito estudos e discussões referentes aos paradigmas que sustentam a profissão, às práticas e crenças sobre o psicólogo e sua prática. Dentre eles, percebe-se a relevância e a importância da psicologia clínica, entretanto, poucos são os estudos realizados com os profissionais inseridos nessa área. A pesquisa teve por objetivo investigar e analisar a representação social de prática profissional para psicólogos clínicos da Grande Vitória/ES. Foi utilizada a Análise Dimensional e Dinâmica das Representações Sociais (Teoria das Representações Sociais) para investigar as noções que compõem a prática. Foram entrevistados 18 psicólogos clínicos atuantes em consultório. Utilizou-se o software ALCESTE na análise. Trabalhou-se com os elementos das classes identificadas pelo Alceste para compor as dimensões da representação social. Constatou-se que os entrevistados construíram informações sobre a psicologia clínica e sua prática antes da entrada no curso ou cedo na formação. As teorias utilizadas na clínica são aspectos importantes nessa aproximação. As atitudes frente à prática são extremamente favoráveis, sendo desfavoráveis quando comparadas às crenças da população ou às práticas médicas, tocando em aspectos identitários. Quanto ao campo, reconheceu-se uma imagem dividida em duas: 1) Imagem das atribuições e da prática clássicas do psicólogo clínico; 2) Imagem dos problemas, das mudanças e das dificuldades. Foi possível identificar a representação social de prática profissional para os psicólogos clínicos, levantando questões importantes para a área da psicologia clínica e para a teoria das representações sociais.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Spatial and temporal variation is a universal feature in most organisms in nature, commonly reflecting the past evolutionary history of the species as well as the prevailing environmental conditions. The purpose of this doctoral thesis study was to investigate the genetic and phenotypic variation, and to assess the roles of the different processes affecting them in the moose (Alces alces). Altogether 809 DNA samples of moose, gathered throughout Finland and the Republic of Karelia in Russia, were analysed with a variety of population genetic methods. Furthermore, the shape of the moose mandible was investigated with the help of geometric morphometrics using a subset of samples gathered from 179 moose in Finland. This study showed that the Finnish and especially the Karelian moose population harboured relatively high genetic diversity, albeit with clear regional differences in its spatial distribution. In the northern half of Finland, a secondary contact of two diverged mitochondrial lineages was revealed. The presence of the two lineages was interpreted to reflect the existence of allopatric refugia of moose during the Last Glacial Maximum and the subsequent bi-directional recolonisation of Fennoscandia. Furthermore, a spatially explicit Bayesian clustering analysis suggested existence of three genetic clusters, which were estimated to have split after the post-glacial recolonisation. The results also showed that past declines in the moose numbers during the 18th and 19th centuries led to population bottlenecks, leaving a genetic imprint. Thus, the present moose population in eastern Fennoscandia carries the signs of both ancient and more recent events in its genetic composition. Finally, a significant latitudinal shift was revealed in the shape of the moose mandible. The pattern was considered independent of the genetic clustering of the population. The main changes included an enlargement of the attachment surfaces of the muscles controlling biting and mastication, implying more effective mastication in the north compared with the south, possibly an adaptive response to a longer period of hard wintertime diet. The results of this thesis encourage continuation of studies on the moose in order to fully reveal the impact of particular historical events and especially anthropogenic factors on the genetic and phenotypic variation of this species. They also provide the starting point for ‘genetically enlightened’ moose management and conservation in FinlandTiivistelmä Lähes kaikilla eliölajeilla esiintyy ajallista ja paikallista muuntelua, joka on seurausta lajin evolutiivisesta historiasta ja vallitsevista ympäristöoloista. Tässä väitöskirjatutkimuksessa tutkin hirven (Alces alces) geneettistä ja fenotyyppistä muuntelua sekä niitä selittäviä taustatekijöitä populaatiogeneettisillä ja geometrisen morfometrian menetelmillä. Geneettisen aineiston muodostivat Suomesta ja Venäjän Karjalasta kerätyt 809 hirven DNA-näytteet. Fenotyyppisenä ominaisuutena tutkittiin hirven leukaluun muotoa yhteensä 179 alaleuasta. Geneettinen monimuotoisuus oli tutkimuksen mukaan Suomen ja erityisesti Karjalan hirvipopulaatiossa verrattain korkea, joskin alueelliset erot olivat varsin selviä. Pohjoisesta Suomesta löytyi kahta erilaistunutta mitokondrion DNA:n sukulinjaa, joiden arvioin erilaistuneen viimeisen jääkauden aikana, todennäköisesti erillisissä refugioissa, ja saapuneen aikoinaan Suomeen eri reittejä pitkin. Tämän ohella tuman DNA paljasti lisää alueellisia rakenteita; bayesilainen ryhmittelyanalyysi havaitsi hirvellä kolme erillistä alapopulaatiota. Näiden ryhmien arvioin kehittyneen vasta Suomen uudelleenasuttamisen jälkeen. Tämän tutkimuksen tulokset osoittivat myös, että historiallisesti tunnetut kannanromahdukset 1700- ja 1800-luvuilla johtivat populaation pullonkaulaan, joka jätti jälkensä hirven perimään. Itäisen Fennoskandian hirvipopulaation geneettiseen muunteluun ovat siis vaikuttaneet sen historian aikana niin jääkauden aikaiset kuin tuoreemmatkin tapahtumat. Tämän lisäksi hirven alaleuan muodossa havaittiin merkitsevä etelä-pohjoissuuntainen muutos. Tulosten mukaan purentaa ohjaavien lihasten kiinnityspinnat laajenevat pohjoista kohti siirryttäessä, mikä viittaisi siihen, että hirven leukojen puruvoima on pohjoisessa suurempi kuin etelässä. Ilmiö oli riippumaton populaation geneettisestä ryhmittyneisyydestä, ja se on mahdollisesti seurausta kovemman talviruokavalion aiheuttamasta adaptiivisesta vasteesta. Tämän väitöskirjan tulokset rohkaisevat jatkamaan aiheen tutkimusta, jotta eri historiallisten tapahtumien sekä eritoten ihmisvaikutuksen merkitys lajin geneettiseen ja fenotyyppiseen muunteluun voitaisiin selvittää perin pohjin. Lisäksi tulokset muodostavat lähtökohdan ’geneettisesti valistuneelle’ hirvikannan hoidolle Suomessa

Roques, Sylvie. "Le corps et ses images dans l'écriture dramatique contemporaine : une application du logiciel "Alceste"." Paris 8, 2005. http://www.theses.fr/2005PA082522.
Full textAbstract:
La méthodologie " Alceste " utilisée dans le cadre de ma recherche met en place une analyse lexicale par contexte. Le texte dramatique est conçu alors comme porteur de traces ou de " mondes lexicaux ". Les résultats obtenus au terme de l'analyse ont mis à jour une typologie des images du corps dans l'écriture dramatique contemporaine. Deux grandes catégories d'images sont cernées : d'une part celles qui suggèrent la représentation d'un corps humide avec les références aux liquides physiologiques aux odeurs et d'autre part, celles qui indiquent la représentation d'un corps sec, privé d'humeurs, d'un corps-machine, d'un corps mort ou tout simplement d'un corps abstrait. Aussi une préoccupation pour le corps semble perceptible dans l'écriture dramatique contemporaine. Pourtant, il ne s'agit pas d'un corps harmonieux et heureux mais bien plutôt d'un corps montré dans sa réalité la plus crue, avec ses humeurs, ses déjections et ses ambiguïtés. Il s'oppose aux " beaux corps " exposés dans la publicité et démontre plutôt une obsession du corps à l'enversIn my research I employed a lexical analysis by context invented by Max Reinert and called “Alceste” methodology. This method investigates the authors' establishment of lexical universes (mondes lexicaux) in the writing of dramatic scripts. In analyzing these lexical universes, we can trace and evaluate diverse representations of the body and note that two major categories appear: one, is a universe concerned with a corps humide (that which is fluid, organic and sensual); the second describes a corps sec (the mechanical body, the dead body, the body as an abstract idea). In this regard, the preoccupation with the body evident in our contemporary culture is also present in contemporary theater. Contrary to an aesthetic of an ideal body (le beau corps), contemporary theater seeks to represent the body in its reality: in the flesh, raw, with its expressions of blood, sweat, tears, hesitation and the daily ambiguities of embodiment

Full textAbstract:
Cette thèse propose une analyse socioéconomique de l'accompagnement associatif des Personnes vivant avec le VIH (PvVIH) vers l'emploi en France. Elle étudie la construction de l'accompagnement associatif d'une part et l'inscription des trajectoires d'accès à l'emploi dans l'espace associatif d'autre part. Complétant les approches statistique et biographique de l'accompagnement vers l'emploi en ouvrant la boîte noire de l'accompagnement, elle analyse la relation d'accompagnement construite par l'institution associative à travers deux monographies. S'appuyant sur la théorie institutionnaliste du couplage, l'analyse textuelle du langage des acteurs, réalisée à l'aide du logiciel Alceste, identifie la part institutionnelle dans la construction sociale des trajectoires d'accès à l'emploi et montre une tension entre délibération et accès à l'emploi dans la construction de l'accompagnement associatif. L'analyse biographique contextualisée repère les facteurs institutionnels d'échec et de réussite dans l'accès à l'emploi. La libération de la dicibilité et l'acquisition de compétence sur le modèle de l'expertise d'usage facilitent et consolident l'accès à l'emploi quand les difficultés sociales et le regard social sur le VIH/sida le freinent et le fragilisent. Ces analyses montrent que la valeur ajoutée de l'accompagnement associatif vers l'emploi est d'inscrire la relation d'accompagnement dans une dynamique collective en la désindividualisant, en mettant en place des espaces de délibération et en valorisant les savoirs d'expériences. La thèse montre finalement que les institutions associatives sont difficiles à modifier et que les pratiques résistent aux dynamiques de changements institutionnels tout en s'en nourrissant.

Previous issue date: 2004-03-30A despeito do interesse atual das Ciências Humanas pela questão da Memória, tem-se subestimado a recorrência com que eventos recordados são identificados como saudosos no discurso do dia a dia dos brasileiros. Memória e Saudade não têm o mesmo significado, mas estão fortemente relacionadas. Como aponta para a valorização de um componente afetivo do conteúdo mnemônico, a problemática dessa relação é de interesse para o entendimento de processos psicossociais mais amplos. Considerando que os elementos constitutivos da Memória Social são partilhados, é possível perceber o significado cotidiano da Saudade, o que investigamos através da identificação de elementos caracterizados comumente como saudosos, bem como da relação entre esses mesmos elementos, e das suas constâncias e inconstâncias, em material textual relatando saudades da infância. Os tempos de menino são identificados recorrentemente como saudosos tanto nas produções artístico-culturais quanto nas lembranças do homem comum, o que justifica a escolha específica dessa recordação como válida. Por se considerar a quantidade e a variedade de elementos que potencialmente poderiam ser lembrados como saudade, optou-se pela conjugação de diferentes procedimentos para analisar essas recordações. A fonte de relatos saudosos da infância foi um conjunto de letras das canções populares do nosso país, material documental que tem sido progressivamente valorizado nos estudos histórico-culturais pela característica de, entre outras vantagens, retratar elementos do cotidiano tanto dos compositores quanto do público consumidor. Com o objetivo de avaliar o vocabulário e o conteúdo saudoso explicitado nas letras de 70 (setenta) canções da música popular brasileira, elas foram submetidas a um programa de análise estatística de dados textuais (Alceste) e a um procedimento clássico de Análise de Conteúdo. Foi proposto um procedimento complementar que denominamos Redes de Conteúdo, a fim de avaliar as características dos vínculos entre os elementos recordados pelos compositores. Os resultados apontaram alta freqüência de menções a atividades infantis, brincadeiras e jogos, realizados predominantemente nos espaços exteriores ao doméstico. Também foi bastante citada a rede de sociabilidade, que agrupa outros meninos, a família e os amores infantis. A possível localização do espaço físico no qual transcorreu a infância, indicada através das menções a elementos naturais, sugere a presença constante de memórias da infância vivida em condições rurais, em contraposição a uma vida de adulto em condições urbanas. O tratamento integrado dos resultados dos procedimentos de análise utilizados permitiu a caracterização da dinâmica do discurso saudoso como condizente com a dinâmica mais geral da Memória Social. Em especial, a identificação explícita do valor do lembrado indica uma particularidade desse discurso, pois agrega valor sentimental que impede que ele seja tomado como mera descrição do passado. Nesse sentido, o conjunto de letras analisadas nos conduz à percepção de aspectos do presente de quem recorda. Na comparação entre um passado feliz e um presente não tão feliz, está em jogo a própria coerência do discurso de quem lembra da infância com saudade.

Summary1. Migration is present in all animal taxa and is defined as a periodic movement pattern between given ranges. Migratory individuals generally move more directional and with higher speed than stationary individuals during the migration seasons. It is suggested that migratory individuals in these periods encounter more risk factors, and therefore experience a higher mortality.2. I studied the variation in the speed of movement and the number of times migratory and stationary moose were crossing elements associated with mortality risk, i.e. water bodies, roads and railroads, in Central Norway. This was done by examining the movement pattern of 121 GPS-collared moose. I also examined whether realized mortality differed between the two movement strategies. 3. The results only partly supported my hypothesis that migratory moose experience higher costs of movement and are confronted with more risk elements than stationary moose. As predicted, migratory moose moved faster than stationary moose, particularly during the migratory season. However, stationary moose had higher densities of risk elements within their home ranges, and crossed risk elements more frequently than migratory moose. For a given density of risk elements, migratory moose crossed more frequently, supporting the hypothesis that migratory moose are less risk adverse. This pattern was present throughout the year, suggesting that the behavior is not only related to higher movement during the migratory period. 4. I found no effect of movement strategy on the mortality rates, but the sample size was low. However, the trend of realized mortality was opposite of what I expected, with migratory moose having a lower mortality rate than stationary moose.5. My results suggest that migratory moose experience a higher risk of mortality by their movement strategy compared to stationary moose. However, this varies between individuals. By considering individual differences in costs of migration, it is possible to increase our understanding of partial migration. Increased human induced risks such as roads, will most likely increase the number of road crossings. The differences between the two movement strategies in number of crossings will most likely decrease as risk density increase, resulting in a high crossing frequency of risk factors performed by moose.

Summary1. Recruitment failure may represent an important demographic response to changes in the environment or in population size. In this study, I examined whether there was a positive relationship between recruitment rates and ovulation rates in year t-1 in eight Norwegian moose populations. Further, I examined how body condition and climate affected the spatiotemporal variation in recruitment rates and ovulation rates. 2. Both recruitment rates and ovulation rates exhibited spatial and temporal variation. The ovulation and twin ovulation rate in yearlings showed more temporal variation than in prime-aged adults. Furthermore, twinning rates varied more than ovulation and calving rates.3. The number of calves per female recruited to the population was positively related to number of eggs per female the previous year. More calves per female were recorded in years with a high June temperature, smaller snow depths and larger yearling body mass, indicating that more egg cells are realised into a calf in years with good living conditions.,4. Additionally, more calves per female were found in regions with higher number of eggs per female, cool June temperatures and low snow depths. The level of recruitment failure varied among regions, and was highest in Vestfold which is associated with low ovulation rates and body masses. This shows that prenatal or neonatal losses of offspring are likely to be an important demographic response in moose to changes in population size or in the environment.

Abstract
GPS telemetry is a method with good accuracy to determine animal movements in the terrain. It is necessary to determine locations of free-ranging animals in order to understand movement patterns and habitat use, and to understand the consequences of human impacts like highways. This study aims to describe moose movement patterns and to evaluate the effect of highway traffic intensity on moose movements across a highway.
Moose in Southwestern Sweden have different movement rates throughout the year. Increased movement rate for females was observed during spring and summer. The breeding season (15 September -15 October) is the most important season for bulls. Our result shows that bulls significantly increase their movement rate during the rut, compared to other times during the fall. Movement rate increased twice compared with female movement rate during this period. No difference was observed during the rutting period for females (15 September- 15 October) compared with no rutting period during fall. During winter time, both sexes retain low movements, mainly caused by energy saving actions. A distinct crepuscular rhythm was exhibited during the summer and fall season, movements were more intense during dawn and dusk hours. No distinct crepuscular rhythm was noticed during winter and spring seasons.
The traffic intensity at highway E6 in Southwestern Sweden increases during the morning hours and reaches its maximum during midday. Moose in southwestern Sweden crossed highway E6 more often at night time than day time. Thus highway crossings by moose occurred at times of peak moose movements, and traffic volume had lower importance.

Full textAbstract:
Moose in Utah represent the southernmost naturally occurring populations of moose in the world. Concerns over possible numeric declines and a paucity of baseline data on moose in the state prompted the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources to initiate a study of moose demography in collaboration with Utah State University. The objectives of this study were to 1) determine reproductive rates of moose in Utah and the factors which influence them, and 2) combine aerial count data from multiple management units within the state to identify factors which influence interannual variation in population growth rates.
We constructed generalized linear models to relate maternal body condition and age to reproductive success. We found that body condition (P = 0.01) and age (P = 0.02) contributed significantly to the probability of pregnancy and the best model describing this relationship was nonlinear. Body condition also related positively to subsequent calving (P = 0.08) and recruitment (P = 0.05), but model selection suggested the relationship for these metrics was best described by linear models. A meta-analysis of moose reproductive rates in North America suggested that reproductive rates declined significantly with latitude (P ≤ 0.01), i.e. as populations approached their southern range limit.
We used Bayesian state-space models to combine moose count data from different management units to estimate statewide population dynamics between 1958 and 2013. This approach incorporated uncertainty in population counts arising from observation error. Population density and warm winter temperatures negatively influenced population growth rate with a high degree of confidence; 95% Bayesian Credible Intervals for these variables did not overlap zero. Short-term projections of moose abundance in the state suggested that the population will likely remain stable despite projected increases in winter temperature.
Results from this study will aid managers in achieving management objectives as well as future decision making. The unique characteristics of the population also have application toward understanding the dynamics of populations of cold-adapted species at their southern range limit.

Ao longo dos últimos trinta anos, os profissionais da Psicologia têm buscado conhecer suas práticas profissionais. Tem-se feito estudos e discussões referentes aos paradigmas que sustentam a profissão, às práticas e crenças sobre o psicólogo e sua prática. Dentre eles, percebe-se a relevância e a importância da psicologia clínica, entretanto, poucos são os estudos realizados com os profissionais inseridos nessa área. A pesquisa teve por objetivo investigar e analisar a representação social de prática profissional para psicólogos clínicos da Grande Vitória/ES. Foi utilizada a Análise Dimensional e Dinâmica das Representações Sociais (Teoria das Representações Sociais) para investigar as noções que compõem a prática. Foram entrevistados 18 psicólogos clínicos atuantes em consultório. Utilizou-se o software ALCESTE na análise. Trabalhou-se com os elementos das classes identificadas pelo Alceste para compor as dimensões da representação social. Constatou-se que os entrevistados construíram informações sobre a psicologia clínica e sua prática antes da entrada no curso ou cedo na formação. As teorias utilizadas na clínica são aspectos importantes nessa aproximação. As atitudes frente à prática são extremamente favoráveis, sendo desfavoráveis quando comparadas às crenças da população ou às práticas médicas, tocando em aspectos identitários. Quanto ao campo, reconheceu-se uma imagem dividida em duas: 1) Imagem das atribuições e da prática clássicas do psicólogo clínico; 2) Imagem dos problemas, das mudanças e das dificuldades. Foi possível identificar a representação social de prática profissional para os psicólogos clínicos, levantando questões importantes para a área da psicologia clínica e para a teoria das representações sociais.
Over the last thirty years, the professionals of psychology have sought to meet their professional practices. It has done studies and discussions regarding paradigms that underpin the profession, practices and beliefs about the psychologist and practice. Among them, we see the relevance and importance of clinical psychology, however, few studies have been conducted with professionals involved in this area. The research aimed to investigate and analyze the social representation of practice for clinical psychologists in Grande Vitória/ES. Dimensional Analysis and Dynamics of Social Representations (Theory of Social Representations) was used to investigate the concepts that make up the practice. Eighteen active clinical psychologists in office were interviewed. We used the software ALCESTE analysis. We worked with the elements of the classes identified by Alceste to compose the dimensions of social representation. It was found that respondents constructed information about clinical psychology and practice before entering the course or early in training. The theories used in the clinic are important aspects of this approach. Attitudes towards practice are extremely favorable, and unfavorable when compared to the beliefs of the population or the medical practice, touching in identity aspects. As for the field, we recognized a split image into two: 1) Picture of the atributions and practices of classical clinical psychologist; 2) Picture of problems, changes and difficulties. It was possible to identify the social representation of practice for clinical psychologists, raising important for the field of clinical psychology and the theory of social representations issues.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível SuperiorEste estudo objetiva analisar e comparar as representações sociais acerca do cuidado de enfermagem prestado à pessoa que vive com HIV/AIDS em duas categorias da equipe de enfermagem que atuam em instituição hospitalar. Consiste em um estudo exploratório-descritivo, pautado na abordagem qualitativa, orientado pela Teoria das Representações Sociais, em sua abordagem processual. Os sujeitos do estudo foram 20 enfermeiros e 20 auxiliares de enfermagem que atuam em um hospital público universitário da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. A coleta de dados deu-se por meio de entrevista semi-estruturada e os mesmos foram submetidos à técnica de análise lexical realizada pelo software ALCESTE 4.7. Na análise do conjunto dos sujeitos emergiram seis categorias de análise, sendo encontradas no primeiro grupo as classes As práticas de cuidado hospitalar e medicamentoso, A influência dos serviços de saúde no cuidado prestado à pessoa com HIV/AIDS e O cuidado como relacionamento interpessoal, referindo-se às dimensões objetiva e subjetiva do cuidado de enfermagem. O segundo grupo engloba as classes O cotidiano do cuidado à pessoa com HIV/AIDS e Os sujeitos sociais do cuidado, voltadas ao cotidiano e aos sujeitos sociais do cuidado. Já no último grupo observa-se O cuidado como auto-proteção profissional, relativa ao cuidado dos profissionais com sua auto-proteção. Da análise cruzada entre as duas categorias de profissionais em confronto surgiram duas classes, uma correspondente aos enfermeiros, expressando o cuidado de enfermagem ideal a ser prestado ao paciente soropositivo ao HIV, voltado a sua qualidade de vida, caracterizando um discurso reificado sobre a prática profissional; e a outra aos auxiliares de enfermagem, apresentando conteúdos sobre o cotidiano do cuidado de enfermagem prestado ao paciente, num discurso com características práticas. Observou-se que o cuidado é representado como a execução de técnicas específicas e o estabelecimento de relacionamento com o paciente e com seus familiares. Os membros da equipe de enfermagem, apesar de afirmarem ser o cuidado prestado às pessoas que vivem com o HIV/AIDS igual ao prestado a qualquer outro cliente, enfatizam a necessidade de maior cautela devido ao risco de contágio para o profissional de saúde, caracterizando um discurso marcado pela contradição. Ainda, foi possível observar diferentes e sutis formas assumidas pelo preconceito no campo profissional, expresso na culpabilização do sujeito em função do seu grau de responsabilidade definido pelo modo através do qual ele se contaminou. Conclui-se que as práticas de cuidado são caracterizadas por elementos objetivos, e fortemente pela subjetividade grupal, podendo se modelar a ela, desde o preconceito e a culpabilização impostos aos sujeitos, até a percepção das mudanças do perfil dos pacientes determinando deferentes graus de identificação da equipe de enfermagem ao cliente.
This study examines and compares social representations about nursing care provided to people with HIV/AIDS among two categories of a hospitals nursing staff. It is an exploratory descriptive study, on a qualitative approach, oriented by the theory of social representations as processual approach. The subjects of the study were 20 nurses and 20 nursing auxiliaries working in a public university hospital in Rio de Janeiro City. Data was collected by means of semi-structured interviews and subjected to lexical analysis using Alceste 4.7 software. From overall analysis of the set of participants, six analytical categories emerged, the first group comprising the classes Hospital care and drug care practices, The influence of health services on care provided to people with HIV/AIDS and Care as interpersonal relationship, relating to the objective and subjective dimensions of nursing care. The second group comprised the classes Day-to-day care for people with HIV/AIDS and The social subjects of care, directed to the day-to-day and social subjects of care. The final group consisted of Care as professional self-protection, relating to the care that health workers take to protect themselves. Contrastive cross-analysis of the two categories of health workers brought out two classes. One, corresponding to the nurses, expressed the ideal nursing care to be given to the HIV-positive patient, directed to quality of life, characterizing a reified discourse on professional practice. The other, from the nursing auxiliaries, presented content on day-to-day nursing care given to patients, in a discourse with practical characteristics. Care was noted to be represented as performing specific techniques and establishing a relationship with patients and their relatives. Despite declaring that the same care is provided to people living with HIV/AIDS as to any other client, the members of the nursing staff stressed the need for greater caution due to the risk of contagion for the health practitioner, characterizing a discourse marked by contradiction. It was also possible to observe various subtle forms of prejudice in professional attitudes, expressed in blaming the patients for a degree of responsibility, which depended on how they were contaminated. It was concluded that care practices are characterized by objective elements and strongly by group subjectivity, to which they may be molded, with results ranging from prejudice and blame towards patients, through to perception of changes in patient profile leading to nursing staffs identifying with clients to differing degrees.

Full textAbstract:
L'enseignement de la négociation commerciale est un enseignement relativement récent. Les travaux sur cet enseignement mettent l'accent sur les méthodes employées, les contenus transmis, l'activité des étudiants, le rôle de l'enseignant ; les savoirs préalables de l'étudiant comme une des variables du processus ont été assez peu étudiés.Le travail présenté dans cette thèse porte son attention sur les représentations de la négociation chez les étudiants, avec comme objectif d'identifier les connaissances implicites et les représentations préalables, afin de faire des propositions de rénovation de la pédagogie : que savent les étudiants quand ils ne savent rien ?Les publics étudiés sont des étudiants de première année et de dernière année de cycle commercial en école de commerce, ainsi que des adultes en formation continue, ayant une expérience professionnelle. La méthode utilisée est celle des récits écrits, dont le contenu est analysé par un traitement qualitatif à l'aide du logiciel Alceste.Entre 2008 et 2011, 301 récits de négociation d'étudiants de première année, 31 récits d'étudiants de troisième année et 52 récits d'adultes en formation continue ont été recueillis puis traités à l'aide d'Alceste. L'analyse Alceste fait ressortir 7 classes de représentations différentes chez les étudiants et 3 classes chez les adultes. Nous avons regroupé ces représentations collectives en trois ensembles chez les étudiants, et en trois ensembles différents, chez les adultes.L'analyse des récits de négociation, puis des représentations correspondantes entre la première année et la troisième année laisse percevoir une augmentation de la réflexivité des étudiants par rapport à leur façon de négocier, plus qu'une amélioration de leur performance.A la suite de cette analyse, nous proposons plusieurs scénarii de cours (de négociation commerciale), en organisant les connaissances à transmettre et les méthodes à utiliser, en fonction des représentations préalables des étudiants et des adultes : quand des savoirs préalables sont partiellement présents chez les apprenants, un rappel ou un auto-apprentissage peuvent être utilisés. Quand des savoirs préalables sont absents ou incomplets, une approche plus complexe, faite d'apports formels, d'exercices pratiques, de travaux individuels ou collectifs permettant un auto-apprentissage extérieur à la classe, est utilisée. Dans tous les cas, un accent important est mis sur la réflexivité de l'étudiant face à ses apprentissages et ses pratiques. Ce travail débouche également sur des réflexions à propos d'un cursus complet d'enseignement commercial en école de commerce : plusieurs cours (vente, négociation, etc.), assurés par plusieurs enseignants, peuvent alors s'articuler dans une cohérence pédagogique d'ensembleTeaching business negotiation is a relatively recent activity. Research about this activity study the methods used, the contents transmitted, student activities, the role of the teacher ; research about students knowledge as one of the variables of the process are scarce.The work presented in this thesis studies the representations of negotiation among students. Its goal is to identify implicit knowledge and previous representations, in order to make proposals for some improvement in a negotiation module : what do students know when they know nothing ?Public studied are freshmen and last year students from a business school, and adults with a professional experience. The method used for the study is the written story-telling, and the content of the stories is analyzed using the Alceste software (qualitative analysis).Between 2008 and 2011, 301 stories from freshmen, 31 stories of third-year students and 52 stories of adults were collected and analyzed with Alceste. The Alceste analysis reveals seven different classes of representations for the students and three classes for adults. We have grouped these collective representations into three conceptual sets in for the students, and three different sets for the adults.Analysis of stories and corresponding representations between the first year and third year shows an increase in reflexivity of students, more than improvement of their performance in negotiation.Following this analysis, we propose several course scenarios (in business negotiations) ; we organize the knowledge units to be transmitted and the methods to do so, by using previous representations of students and adults.When previous knowledge is partially present, self-learning or a simple recall can be used. When previous knowledge is missing or incomplete, a more complex approach, made of formal contributions, practical exercises, individual or group work allowing learning outside the classroom must be used.In all cases, strong emphasis is put on the student's reflexivity about his own thinking and practices. This work also leads to some reflections about a complete curriculum of business education in a business school : several courses (sales, negotiation, etc.) delivered by several teachers, can then be organized together in order to build coherence in teaching business

Full textAbstract:
Abstract In Finland there is a food monitoring program which has found elevated dioxin and polychlorinated biphenyl concentrations in the muscle of semi-domesticated reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) calves. This led to further research on the concentrations of persistent organic pollutants in reindeer muscle, liver, and other internal organs. The research was further expanded on wild moose (Alces alces) muscle and liver. The main objective of this thesis is to increase knowledge of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxin (PCDD), polychlorinated dibenzofuran (PCDF), polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB), and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) pollution levels in the Finnish terrestrial environment, and in semi-domesticated reindeer and wild moose in particular. The research gives information of exposure conditions in the reindeer’s food chain, as well as species differences and individual variation in accumulation and distribution of pollutants in reindeer and moose. Local differences between the contaminant concentrations were explored. Toxic equivalencies (TEQs) set by the World Health Organization (WHO) of PCDD/Fs and PCBs were calculated in order to assess the validity of selling reindeer and moose tissue. It was observed that there is a species-, individual-, and tissue-specific accumulation of dioxins, dioxin-like PCB, and PBDE compounds in reindeer and moose. Varying exposure conditions mainly explain the differences, although taking into account the age of an individual animal, its metabolic patterns have a role, too. Reindeer placenta and milk proved to be important factors in the transporting of compounds from hind to calf. The highest PCDD/F and PCB concentrations (as WHO-TEQs) were observed in reindeer calves in the study area in which animals are fed in natural pastures only. Despite the findings, it was concluded that it is safe to eat reindeer and moose meat since the concentrations of dioxins and dioxin-like PCBs in the muscle are relatively low, and because of the low fat content in these animals. Reindeer liver, for its part, had quite a lot of dioxin-like compounds that may compromise its safety as food, at least on a regular basis. The study shows that Finnish semi-domesticated reindeer and wild moose are good indicator species of POP contamination in a terrestrial environment, reindeer describing the situation in northern parts of the country especiallyTiivistelmä Suomalaisessa ruokamonitorointitutkimuksessa löydettiin kohonneita dioksiinien ja polykloorattujen bifenyylien pitoisuuksia puolivillin poron vasojen lihaksista. Se johti lisätutkimuksiin pysyvien orgaanisten yhdisteiden pitoisuuksista poron lihaksessa, maksassa ja muissa sisäelimissä. Tutkimus laajeni koskemaan myös hirven (Alces alces) lihasta ja maksaa. Väitöskirjatyö lisää tietämystä polykloorattujen dibentso-p-dioksiinien (PCDD), polykloorattujen dibentsofuraanien (PCDF), polykloorattujen bifenyylien (PCB) ja polybromattujen difenyylieettereiden (PBDE) pitoisuuksista suomalaisessa maaympäristössä ja erityisesti porossa ja hirvessä. Tutkimus antaa tietoa yhdisteille altistumisesta sekä viitteitä lajien- ja yksilöiden välisistä eroavai¬suuksista yhdisteiden kertymisessä ja niiden jakaantumisessa eri kudosten välillä. Alueellista vaihtelua yhdisteiden pitoisuuksissa selvitettiin myös. Maailman terveysjärjestön (WHO) asettamia PCDD/F- ja PCB-yhdisteiden toksisuusekvivalenttiarvoja (TEQ) tarkasteltaessa pystyttiin arvioimaan kemiallista elintarvikekelpoisuutta suhteessa EU:n antamiin sallittuihin pitoisuuksiin. Työssä havaittiin laji-, yksilö-, ikä- ja kudosspesifistä dioksiinien, dioksiinienkaltaisten PCB- ja PBDE-yhdisteiden kerääntymistä porossa ja hirvessä. Tämä on todennäköisimmin seurausta vaihtelevasta altistumisesta yhdisteille, mutta myös lajien metabolisissa toiminnoissa yksilön eri ikäkausina voi olla eroavaisuuksia. Poron istukan ja maidon havaittiin olevan tärkeitä yhdisteiden kulkeutumisessa emolta sikiölle ja vasalle. Korkeimmat dioksiinien ja dioksiinien kaltaisten PCB-yhdisteiden konsentraatiot (WHO-TEQ-pitoisuuksina) havaittiin poron vasoilla tutkimusalueella, jossa eläimet olivat laiduntaneet ainoastaan luonnonlaitumilla. Huolimatta havaituista haitta-ainepitoisuuksista todettiin, että sekä luonnostaan vähärasvaisen poron että hirvenlihan syönti on turvallista suhteellisen alhaisten dioksiinien ja dioksiininkaltaisten PCB-yhdisteiden pitoisuuksien perusteella. Poron maksa puolestaan sisälsi melko korkeita dioksiinien kaltaisten yhdisteiden pitoisuuksia, mikä voi vaikuttaa sen turvalliseen käyttöön elintarvikkeena ainakin usein syötynä. Suomalainen puolivilli poro ja villi hirvi sopivat hyvin POP-kontaminoitumisen indikaattoreiksi maaympäristössä; poron erityisesti kuvaten tilannetta maan pohjoisosissa

Notre recherche concerne des patientes hospitalisées pour des troubles du comportement alimentaire (TCA) afin de déterminer les niveaux de comportements anorexiques et boulimiques, la comorbidité associée, la catégorisation alimentaire, la perception corporelle et le contenu du discours. Nous évaluons ensuite l'impact de la renutrition et des thérapies cognitivo-comportementales sur ces variables. Quarante-deux anorexiques restrictives (AN-R) et 33 anorexiques / boulimiques (AN-BP/BN) ont été évaluées quatre fois à l'aide d'auto questionnaires et de tests mesurant ces variables : le EAT, le EDI, le BITE, le BDI, le STAI, la RAS, un test de catégorisation alimentaire, un test sur l'image corporelle et un test sur l'analyse du discours. Elles ont été comparées à 83 femmes évaluées en une seule occasion. L'indice de masse corporelle augmente d'une façon importante. Les scores au EAT et au EDI restent pathologiques tout en diminuant ; les scores à la BITE normalisent. Des dépressions modérées à sévère et/ou des anxiétés pathologiques restent prévalentes en dépit des améliorations. Au début, les AN-R et les AN-BP/BN classent les 27 aliments de la même façon. À la fin de la prise en charge seulement 14 aliments sont classés semblablement chez les deux sous-groupes. Les AN-R surestiment leur taille corporelle contrairement aux AN-BP / BN qui, comme les sujets témoins, la sous-estiment. A la fin de l'hospitalisation, les AN-R persistent à surestimer leur forme corporelle alors que les AN-BP/BN se normalisent. La perception de l'image du corps idéal et souhaité ne différent que peu parmi les patientes et se normalise post-traitement. L'analyse du discours montre que les AN-BP / BN s'approchent aux témoins. Néanmoins, elles vivent mal leur forme corporelle tout au long de l'hospitalisation. Les AN-R vivent mal leur maigreur lors du début de l'hospitalisation et elles vivent mal leur reprise du poids lors de la finOur study was conducted with patients hospitalised for eating disorders to determine levels of anorexic and bulimic behaviour, associated co-morbidity, food categorisation, body perception, and speech content. Subsequently, we assess the influence of re-nutrition and cognitive behavioural therapies on these variables. Forty-two restrictive anorexics (AN-R) and 33 bulimic-anorexics (AN-BP/BN) were evaluated on four occasions using self questionnaires and tests adapted for measuring these variables: EAT, EDI, BITE, BDI, STAI, RAS, a food categorisation test, a body image perception test and a speech content test. Patients were compared with 83 healthy female participants evaluated on a single occasion. Body mass index increased considerably throughout the hospitalisation treatment. EAT and EDI scores remained at pathological levels despite considerable reductions; BITE scores normalised. Moderate to severe depression and pathological anxiety remained prevalent despite noteworthy improvements. At the beginning of the hospital treatment, AN-R and AN-BP/BN patients classed all 27 foods in the same manner. At the end of the in-patient care just 14 foods were classed similarly by the two sub groups. AN-R patients overestimated their body size in contrast to AN-BP/BN patients who, like control subjects, underestimated their body size. Post-treatment, AN-R patients persisted in overestimating their body shape whereas AN-BP/BN patient normalised. Ideal and desired body shape perception differs little between patient subtypes and normalises post-treatment with control subjects. Speech analysis showed that AN-BP/BN patients tended to be similar to the control subjects. Nonetheless, they constantly suffer their body shape over the course of the hospitalisation. AN-R patients suffer their thinness at the start of the in-patient care and they suffer their weight regain at the end of the treatment

À la suite d’une coupe forestière, les parterres en régénération peuvent subir un enfeuillement favorable à l’orignal. L’accroissement des populations de loups qui s’en suit affecte alors les populations du caribou forestier. Ce projet vise à évaluer si la contribution de la coupe forestière à cette compétition apparente varie selon un gradient latitudinal. Nous avons modélisé la sélection d’habitat d’orignaux, de loups et de caribous. Après la prise en compte de l’âge de la coupe, l’enfeuillement des parterres diminuait avec la latitude. La sélection des parterres de coupe par les orignaux et les loups augmentait en fonction de leur enfeuillement. Les caribous évitaient les coupes, particulièrement celles riches en feuillus. La cooccurrence de l’orignal et du loup dans les coupes augmente donc en fonction de l’enfeuillement. Ainsi, la contribution de la coupe forestière à la compétition apparente dans le système orignal-loup-caribou devrait diminuer vers le nord de la forêt boréale.Moose benefit from deciduous vegetation that becomes increasingly available during the regeneration of logged forests. This numerical response of moose populations can lead to an increase in gray wolf abundance, which impacts forest-dwelling caribou populations. This study evaluates if the contribution of logging to such apparent competition could vary along the latitudinal axis. We modelled habitat selection behaviour of moose, wolves and caribous monitored by telemetry. After controlling for time since harvest, deciduous vegetation availability decreased with increasing latitude. Moose and wolves avoided cutovers with low deciduous vegetation availability, while they selected harvested stands with high deciduous vegetation availability. Caribou avoided cutovers, and their avoidance increased with the level of deciduous regeneration. The co-occurrence between moose and wolves in cutovers increased with deciduous vegetation availability. Therefore, the contribution of logging to the apparent competition in the moose-wolf-caribou system should be stronger in southern than in northern boreal forest.

Betesskador på skog kostar både skogsägare och industri stora summor pengar. Ett sätt att minska betesskador kan vara bättre kontroll över populationsstorleken av klövvilt. I Sverige används flera olika etablerade viltinventeringsmetoder. Svagheten är att de baseras på trender, index och avskjutningar mer än att få fram en siffra på antalet djur. En tillförlitlig inventeringsmetod är av stor vikt som beslutsunderlag till förvaltningsplaner. Drönare är ett obemannat luftfartyg som kan utrustas med olika kameror och sensorer. Tidigare fältstudier har visat att värme från vilt kan plockas upp av en drönare utrustad med termisk kamera. Svårigheten har varit att få tillförlitlighet vid artbestämning av vilt med enbart termiska kamera. I denna studie utfördes en viltinventering av ett 506 ha stort område norr om Ljungby i Kronobergs län under januari 2020. Med hjälp av en drönare utrustad med både termisk och RGB kamera utfördes en totalinventering av området. Resultatet visar att kombinationen av både termisk och RGB kamera ökar tillförlitligheten vid artbestämning av vilt. Metodens svagheter är täta krontak av gran, gällande regelverk från transportstyrelsen samt drönarens begränsande batterikapacitet. Slutsatsen är att vilt säkrare kan identifieras och artbestämmas med kombinationen av termisk- och RGB kamera jämfört med enbart termisk kamera men att metoden behöver vidareutvecklas.

Les médias interactifs constituent l’une des formes les plus ambitieuses de communication entre les consommateurs et les médias. L’objectif de cette thèse est de s’interroger sur le désir d’interactivité du consommateur, vu sous l’angle de la consommation de programmes télévisés. Après avoir défini le concept d’interactivité, nous avons identifié les différents aspects du comportement des téléspectateurs et les formes d’interactivité déjà existantes. Pour véritablement tester l’interactivité télévisée, nous avons conçu un simulateur de télévision enrichie. Une cinquantaine d’entretiens ont été organisés in situ et les participants ont utilisé des programmes interactifs comme des publicités interactives, des jeux, du football, des dessins animés ou de l’achat à distance. Nous avons procédé à l’analyse de contenu de l’ensemble de ce corpus d’une part et nous avons utilisé le logiciel Alceste pour identifier des classes de téléspectateurs d’autre part. Au terme de cette recherche, nous avons identifié cinq dimensions de la notion de désir d’interactivité : utilitaire (personnalisation, recherche, d’information), hédonique (participation, recherche ludique), sociale (communication), ergonomique (immédiateté, recherche du moindre effort) et économique (transaction, recherche commerciale). Aussi, nous avons mis en évidence un ensemble d’éléments représentant le désir d’inactivité des consommateurs réunissant trois composantes : un attachement à la non-activité, une attention volatile et divisée et un intérêt pour le contenu principalInteractive media is one of the most ambitious technologies given to consumers to communicate with media. This thesis consists in studying consumers’ desire for interactivity for TV programs. We first define the concept of interactivity. Then we identify different aspects of TV viewers’ behavior and existing forms of interactivity. We set up a simulator of enriched TV programs and organized fifty in-home and in-depth interviews. Participants tested interactive programs “hands on” such as interactive advertisements, games, sports, cartoons and remote purchase. The data were analyzed with two methods : first, we proceed with a content analysis of our corpus and second, we used the Alceste software to identify TV viewers classes. We found five dimensions of desire for interactivity : utilitarian (personalization, search for information), hedonic (participation, search for play), social (communication), ergonomic (immediacy, search for least effort) and economic (transaction, search for commerce). We also suggest a new construct : consumers’ desire for inactivity gathering three components : attachment to non-activity, a volatile and divided attention and an interest for main content

Full textAbstract:
Genetic variation is a prerequisite for the viability and evolution of species. Information on population genetic patterns on spatial and temporal scales is therefore important for effective management and for protection of biodiversity. However, incorporation of genetics into management has been difficult, even though the need has been stressed for decades. In this thesis population genetic patterns in continuous environments are described, compared among species, and related to conservation management. The model systems are moose (Alces alces) in Sweden and multiple species in the Baltic Sea, with particular focus on the Northern pike (Esox lucius). The spatial scope of the studies is large, and much focus is dedicated towards comprehensive sampling over large geographic areas. The moose population in Sweden is shown to be divided into two major subpopulations, a northern and a southern one. Both subpopulations show genetic signals of major population bottlenecks, which coincide with known population reductions due to high hunting pressure (Paper I). The Northern pike in the Baltic Sea shows relatively weak, but temporally stable population genetic structure. An isolation by distance pattern suggests that gene flow primarily takes place among neighboring populations, either over shortest waterway distance or along the mainland coast, with island populations acting as stepping stones (Paper III). In a comparative study of seven Baltic Sea species no shared genetic patterns were found, either in terms of genetic divergence among or genetic diversity within geographic regions. These results complicate the incorporation of genetic data into management, because it suggests that no generalization can be made among species in the Baltic Sea, but that species-specific management is needed (Paper II). Over the last 50 years, 61 species in the Baltic Sea have been studied with respect to spatial genetic patterns. For over 20 of these species information of direct relevance for management is available. Relevant information is synthesized into management recommendations (Paper IV). This thesis provides vital information on spatial and temporal genetic structure for a number of ecologically and socio-economically important species. It shows that such information is important to consider species by species and that both local and metapopulation approaches are needed to effectively manage genetic diversity in e.g. moose and pike. Further, it identifies for which organisms in the Baltic Sea genetic information exists, how it can be used, and where important information is lacking. In order to successfully make use of genetic data in management, effective communication channels between academia and policy-makers are needed.At the time of the doctoral defense, the following papers were unpublished and had a status as follows: Paper 3: Manuscript.

Full textAbstract:
L’internationalisation des entreprises est un phénomène irréversible et la globalisation économique n’est qu’une des facettes d’un phénomène de mondialisation qui touche désormais l’ensemble des activités humaines. Cette globalisation de l’économie offre aux entreprises des opportunités d’implantation et d’acquisition de parts de marchés étrangers mais semble poser des défis importants à relever à toute entreprise désireuse de s’internationaliser. En effet, l’observation des performances des entreprises exportatrices de la filière fruits et légumes d’un pays comme le Burkina Faso montre une baisse continue de la compétitivité sur le marché international depuis plusieurs années. Face à ce constat, nous nous interrogeons sur les raisons profondes de cette situation : la perte de compétitivité peut-elle s’expliquer par l’organisation et le mode de fonctionnement de la filière face aux conditions actuelles d’accès au marché ? Pour répondre à cette question, notre démarche a consisté à mobiliser la théorie de l’économie industrielle et la théorie du marketing relationnel qui ont permis de formuler 12 propositions de recherche. Ces propositions ont été soumises à l’épreuve des faits sur la base des résultats des traitements et de l’analyse des données collectées auprès d’un échantillon de 23 acteurs. Deux méthodes d’analyse ont été mobilisées pour le traitement et l’analyse des données : l’analyse thématique et l’analyse automatique de contenu à l’aide du logiciel ALCESTE. Les résultats convergents de ces deux méthodes d’analyse ont permis de conclure que la perte de compétitivité s’explique d’une part l’organisation et le mode de fonctionnement de la filière face aux conditions actuelles d’accès au marché mais surtout de facteurs liés à son environnement externe, notamment les conditions de base du pays d’origine, d’autre part. La thèse formule des recommandations d’ordre managériales et ouvre des perspectives pour des recherches futuresFirm’s internationalisation is an irreversible phenomena and the economic globalisation is a figure of world phenomena of all human activities concern. This globalisation gives an opportunity to firms which desire to acquire a market part in foreign markets. But this situation is also an important challenge for those firms which want to get a part in the international market. Indeed, we noticed that export firms of Burkina fruits and vegetables field had a bad performance since several years. Then, we need to understand the main raisons of this situation. So our question is: doses competitiveness loss can be explained by the field organisation and working according to the market conditions access? To answer to this question, industrial and relational marketing theories are mobilized. With these theories 12 research propositions are formulated and tested. A primary data are collected with a sample of 23 actors. These data was submitted to two different data analysis methodology: the thematic analysis and ALCESTE analysis. The convergent results of these two analysis methodology premised us to conclude that the field competitiveness loss is partly due to field organisation and working and to a large extent of the basic conditions of origin country. In conclusion we propose recommendations for firm’s competitive improvement and some directions for further research

Cette thèse porte sur l’engagement psychologique optimal (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), des adultes en formation continue au Burkina Faso. Il s’agit d’identifier les contributions des facteurs de motivations de formation (Fenouillet et al., 2015), de motivations de carrière (London, 1983), de soutiens sociaux perçus (Zimet et al.,1988), de soutiens organisationnels perçus (Eisenberger et al, 1986) et de perception d’autonomie (Vallerand et al., 1997), dans l’engagement psychologique en formation.La première étude qualitative est conduite à partir du verbatim de vingt-sept (27) entretiens semi-directif et un traitement automatique de contenu à l’aide du logiciel Alceste. L’hypothèse portant sur l’existence de « mondes lexicaux » différenciés relatifs à l’engagement psychologique et aux variables explicatives de cette recherche est invalidée. L’engagement psychologique optimal est unidimensionnel dans cette recherche, contrairement au modèle original tridimensionnel (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010).La deuxième étude quantitative s’appuie sur cinq des sept étapes de la méthodologie d’adaptation transculturelle des échelles préconisées par Vallerand (1989). Une première étape d’analyse exploratoire a permis l’épuration des six outils. La deuxième étape d’analyse confirmatoire s’appuie sur les données de trois-cent-soixante-onze (371) questionnaires. Les résultats confirment l’existence de corrélations positives et significatives entre l’engagement psychologique optimal en formation et les variables explicatives. Ce sont les motivations de carrière, les soutiens sociaux perçus, et la perception d'autonomie qui rendent compte de l’engagement psychologique unidimensionnel. Ce résultat indique, contrairement au modèle original tridimensionnel (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), que l’engagement psychologique optimal est un construit unidimensionnel avec un contenu affectif, cognitif et comportemental.Mots-clés : Burkina-Faso, engagement psychologique, logiciel Alceste, motivations de carrière, perception d'autonomie, soutien social perçuThis doctoral thesis base on the three-dimensional model of the optimal psychology commitment (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), applied to adults in continuing education in Burkina Faso. It aims to explore the influence of training motivation (Fenouillet et al., 2015), carrer motivation (London, 1983), perceived social supports (Zimet et al.,1988), perceived organizational supports (Eisenberger et al., 1986), and the perception of autonomy (Vallerand et al., 1997).The first qualitative study is based on data from twenty-seven (27) semi-structured interviews whose corpus is subjected to automatic content processing using the Alceste software. The interview focused on the existence of differentiated classes of "lexical universes" relating to the psychological commitment and to the explanatory variables of this research. The hypothesis supporting the existence of differentiated lexical contents is invalidated. In this research, unlike the original three-dimensional model (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), the construct of optimal psychological commitment is one-dimensional.The second quantitative study is conducted, in the final phase, using data from three hundred and seventy-one (371) questionnaires from the six scales of this research. Exploratory and confirmatory analyzes supported by cross-cultural adaptation of the tools were carried out according to five of the seven recommended steps of Vallerand (1989).The question was what training and career motivations motivate adults in their psychological commitment to training on the one hand? and on the other hand, what perceptions do they have of social and organizational supports, as well as their perception of autonomy in this commitment?The results confirm, on the one hand, the hypothesis of the existence of positive and significant correlations between the optimal psychological commitment to training and the explanatory variables. Likewise, it is the career motivations, perceived social supports, and the perception of autonomy that account for one-dimensional psychological commitment.This result shows, contrary to the original three-dimensional model (Brault-Labbé et al., 2008, 2009, 2010), that optimal psychological commitment is a one-dimensional construct with affective, cognitive and behavioural content.Keywords: Burkina Faso, psychological commitment, Alceste software, career motivations, training motivations, perception of autonomy, perceived support

Šio darbo tikslas buvo išstudijuoti elninių žvėrių (briedžių, tauriųjų elnių ir europinių stirnų) gausumą 2009-2010 m. žiemojimo periodu Kuršėnų urėdijos miškuose ir palyginti skirtingų miškų gautus rezultatus. Tyrimai atlikti 18 miškų, naudojant McCain netiesioginę elninių žvėrių apskaitą pagal jų paliekamus ekskrementus bei Aldous medžių pažeidimo metodą. Pagal atliktus tyrimus, vidutinis elninių žvėrių tankumas Kuršėnų urėdijos miškuose 2009-2010 m. žiemojimo periodu buvo 14, 7 individų tūkstančiui hektarų. Briedžių tankumas tirtame regione buvo du kartus didesnis, lyginant su vidutiniu briedžių tankumu visoje Lietuvos teritorijoje, tauriųjų elnių – labai panašus, o stirnų buvo dvigubai mažesnis. Taigi, tirtuose miškuose yra gausu stambiųjų elninių, tačiau jie konkuruoja su stirnomis. Vidutinis briedžių ir tauriųjų elnių tankumas tirtuose miškuose atitinka ekologinį ir ūkiškai leistiną elninių žvėrių gausumą Lietuvos miškams, o stirnų yra du kartus mažesnis, tačiau, atsižvelgiant į mitybinę konkurenciją, taurusis elnias laikomas pagrindine elninių žvėrių rūšimi tirtoje vietovėje, tad pagrindinis dėmesys turėtų būti skiriamas jo populiacijų gausinimui. Elniniai žvėrys pagal mitybos specializaciją renkasi skirtingus biotopus. Didžiausias briedžių gausumas nustatytas krūmynuose, tauriųjų elnių – pievose, o europinių stirnų – dirbamų laukų biotopuose. Vidutinis dendrofloros panaudojimo pašarams intensyvumas Kuršėnų urėdijos miškuose buvo 18,5 %, bet netgi didžiausi pažeidimai... [toliau žr. visą tekstą]The aim of this study was to find out the density of cervids during wintering period in Kušėnai forests and to compare gathered data with density in different forest. The research have been conducted in 18 forests, using McCain indirect record by excrement and Aldous trees damage method. Studies have shown that the average density of cervids in surveyed areas is 14.7 individuals per thousand hectares. Moose density in this region is twice higher than average moose density in whole Lithuania, red deer – very similar, roe deer density is half lower. Therefore, explored forests is rich of large ungulate mammals, but they compete with roe deers. The average abundance of red deer and moose satisfies commercially and ecologicaly acceptable ones, also roe deer density is more than two times smaller, bur in aspect of the competition diet, red deer is considered to be the main cervid species in studied forests, so more attention should be paid to increase their population. Cervids by specificity of their species in different forests choose similar biotopes. The highest abundance of moose were in scrubs, red deer – in meadows, roe deer – in cultivated fields. The average of tree damage in stydy areas is 18.5 percent, but even the highest nutrient load does not exceed the recommended rate (30–40 %), so there is no danger to natural forest regeneration.

L’objectif de cette étude était de comparer les effets de l’éclaircie précommerciale d’hiver (ÉPCH) à ceux de l’éclaircie précommerciale conventionnelle (ÉPC) sur l’habitat du lièvre d’Amérique (Lepus americanus) et de l’orignal (Alces alces). L’éclaircie précommerciale d’hiver suit les mêmes règles d’application que l’éclaircie précommerciale conventionnelle mais elle est effectuée sur le couvert de neige. Les effets de l’ÉPCH sur la qualité nutritive des feuilles et des pousses annuelles étaient assez minimes. Par ailleurs, dans plusieurs cas, l’ÉPCH offrait un meilleur couvert pour le lièvre que l’ÉPC et elle offrait une production annuelle de bouleau blanc (Betula papyrifera) supérieure à l’ÉPC dans la strate d’alimentation de l’orignal (100-200 cm). À court terme, l’ÉPCH semble donc un meilleur traitement que l’ÉPC pour l’habitat du lièvre et de l’orignal.
Le différentiel de hauteur et le différentiel de diamètre du sapin au moment de l’éclaircie sont les 2 variables les plus importantes pour expliquer ces différentiels (5 et 10 années suivant le traitement) par rapport aux arbres concurrents. L’ÉPCH diminue la compétition autour des arbres dégagés pendant au moins 10 années.

Full textAbstract:
A l'heure actuelle, de nombreuses populations de vertébrés sont soumises directement ou indirectement à des pressions anthropiques. Le but de ce mémoire est de montrer les implications de telles pressions sur la dynamique des populations d'ongulés, en plus des facteurs de variation environnementale classiquement reconnus, comme le climat ou la qualité de l'habitat. Nous présentons ici deux études de cas : le mouflon méditerranéen (Ovis gmelini musimon × Ovis sp.) en France et l'élan (Alces alces) en Norvège. Notre travail sur le mouflon s'est appuyé sur une étude à long terme (30 ans) d'une population située dans le sud de la France (Hérault). Pour l'élan, nous avons conduit une étude comparative de plusieurs populations évoluant dans des habitats très contrastés répartis en Norvège le long d'un gradient latitudinal.Après avoir mis en évidence dans notre étude sur le mouflon les avantages et les limites de méthodes classiquement utilisées pour le suivi des populations d'ongulés, nous montrons que la dynamique de cette population est influencée à la fois par (1) la fermeture généralisée des habitats suite à la déprise pastorale obligeant les mouflons à utiliser des ressources sous-optimales, (2) la chasse sélective pratiquée sur les mâles à trophée, (3) l'histoire récente des individus à l'origine de la population, ainsi que (4) la sécheresse estivale. Ces processus sont respectivement responsables d'une diminution de la qualité phénotypique (poids, trophée) des mouflons (processus (1) et (2)), des variations de performances reproductives des femelles (processus (3) et (4)) et de la mortalité estivale des agneaux (processus (4)).
Chez l'élan, nous montrons que le dimorphisme sexuel de taille (DST) augmente avec une saisonnalité environnementale croissante, sans doute à cause d'une meilleure qualité des ressources lorsque la saison de végétation est plus courte mais plus intense. La chasse sélective contre les mâles intervient elle aussi sur le DST en causant une diminution de la proportion de mâles adultes dans la population. Les jeunes mâles participeraient alors davantage à la reproduction, ce qui affecterait en retour leur croissance.
Les résultats obtenus à partir de ces deux études de cas, conduites à des échelles spatiales différentes, mettent en évidence l'existence de caractéristiques inhérentes aux populations exploitées. Au même titre que les contraintes environnementales sous lesquelles elles évoluent, nous démontrons que l'Homme peut influencer fortement la démographie de ces populations.

À luz da fortuna crítica e historiográfica, pretende-se refletir sobre a novidade formal que esse ambicioso projeto apresenta no panorama político moderno. O problema desloca-se para o exame das relações entre matéria histórica e forma literária. Afinal, a Grande Guerra parece reorientar as pesquisas formais desenvolvidas pelas vanguardas italianas, a partir do instante em que a política se torna o tema central. A ambição deste trabalho é avaliar de que maneira os acontecimentos históricos, que marcaram a geração que viveu a experiência da Grande Guerra, fornecem subsídios para que compreendamos os rumos das vanguardas italianas e o modo como a formalização estética de seus ideais transformou a Itália do início do século XX em um laboratório político
Abstract: This doctorate thesis, the investigation object of which is Carta del Carnaro, written by Gabriele D'Annunzio and Alceste De Ambris, aims at analyzing the utopian, literary and modernist aspects of the Fiuman Constitution. In light of the critical and historiographical fortune, the intention is to reflect which formal novelty this ambitious project shows in the modern political scenario. The problem shifts to the examination of the relationships between historical matter and literary form. After all, the Great War seems to reorient the formal surveys made by the Italian vanguards, from the moment in which the politics becomes the central theme. The ambition of this study is to assess how the historical events experienced by the generation that lived during the Great War serve as base so that we can understand the direction of the Italian vanguards and how the esthetic formalization of their ideals transformed the Italy of the early 20th Century into a political laboratory

Cette recherche a pour objet de déterminer et de qualifier les interactions observables entre l'homme et les ordinateurs, considérés comme des machines numériques dotées d'interfaces à modalités sensibles. Elle éclaire, en les approfondissant, les concepts de virtualité, de multisensorialité et d'interactivité avant d'expliciter l'intérêt, voire l'appétence, suscitée par les Nouvelles Technologies de l'Information et de la Communication (NTIC). Le travail, qui a pour cadre les représentations collectives, analyse la titrologie du quotidien " Le monde " pendant cinq ans, des enquêtes par questionnaires, des entretiens semi-directifs et des observations participantes filmées. Il prend en compte la part de socialité dans les processus décisionnels observables lors de l'utilisation des ordinateurs en réseau ou non. Un échantillon de dix-sept sujets est notamment constitué pour être soumis à une observation éthologique, selon une méthodologie segmentée en trois phases. Dans un premier temps, un entretien d'observation permet d'appréhender, à l'aide du support verbal, les positionnements individuels liés aux TIC. Retranscrits et analysés avec le logiciel Alceste, les corpus recueillis déterminent l'élaboration, entre autres, de quatre classes d'utilisateurs. Ensuite, l'observation filmée des pratiques, d'abord commentées par le sujet en présence du chercheur, puis en situation solitaire, met en évidence l'importance des modalités sensibles et des proxémies comme facteurs de comportements spécifiques. Ces derniers sont rapprochés des conduites observées chez 24 jeunes sujets, âgés de 3 à 6 ans dans un jardin d'enfants. Cette démarche multidisciplinaire souligne l'intérêt d'un rapprochement entre SHS, sciences de l'information et de la communication, approches éducatives et éthologie sociale.

Full textAbstract:
A l’heure actuelle, de nombreuses populations de vertébrés sont soumises directement ou indirectement à des pressions anthropiques. Le but de ce mémoire est de montrer les implications de telles pressions sur la dynamique des populations d’ongulés, en plus des facteurs de variation environnementale classiquement reconnus, comme le climat ou la qualité de l’habitat. Nous présentons ici deux études de cas : le mouflon méditerranéen (Ovis gmelini musimon × Ovis sp. ) en France et l’élan (Alces alces) en Norvège. Notre travail sur le mouflon s’est appuyé sur une étude à long terme (30 ans) d’une population située dans le sud de la France (Hérault). Pour l’élan, nous avons conduit une étude comparative de plusieurs populations évoluant dans des habitats très contrastés répartis en Norvège le long d’un gradient latitudinal. Après avoir mis en évidence dans notre étude sur le mouflon les avantages et les limites de méthodes classiquement utilisées pour le suivi des populations d’ongulés, nous montrons que la dynamique de cette population est influencée à la fois par (1) la fermeture généralisée des habitats suite à la déprise pastorale obligeant les mouflons à utiliser des ressources sous-optimales, (2) la chasse sélective pratiquée sur les mâles à trophée, (3) l’histoire récente des individus à l’origine de la population, ainsi que (4) la sécheresse estivale. Ces processus sont respectivement responsables d’une diminution de la qualité phénotypique (poids, trophée) des mouflons (processus (1) et (2)), des variations de performances reproductives des femelles (processus (3) et (4)) et de la mortalité estivale des agneaux (processus (4)). Chez l’élan, nous montrons que le dimorphisme sexuel de taille (DST) augmente avec une saisonnalité environnementale croissante, sans doute à cause d’une meilleure qualité des ressources lorsque la saison de végétation est plus courte mais plus intense. La chasse sélective contre les mâles intervient elle aussi sur le DST en causant une diminution de la proportion de mâles adultes dans la population. Les jeunes mâles participeraient alors davantage à la reproduction, ce qui affecterait en retour leur croissance. Les résultats obtenus à partir de ces deux études de cas, conduites à des échelles spatiales différentes, mettent en évidence l’existence de caractéristiques inhérentes aux populations exploitées. Au même titre que les contraintes environnementales sous lesquelles elles évoluent, nous démontrons que l’Homme peut influencer fortement la démographie de ces populationsSeveral vertebrate populations have to face indirect and direct human pressures. Our aim here is to show how these pressures influence ungulate population dynamics beyond environmental factors commonly accounted for, such as habitat quality or climate. We present two case studies : Mediterranean mouflon (Ovis gmelini musimon × Ovis sp. ) in France and moose (Alces alces) in Norway. We analyzed a long term study (30 years) of a mouflon population located in southern France (Hérault). Our study on moose was based on a transversal and comparative analysis of several populations inhabiting contrasted environments in Norway along a latitudinal gradient. Our study on mouflon highlighted the advantages and limits of commonly used survey methods for ungulate population monitoring. We then showed that the dynamics of this population was influenced by (1) habitat closure, resulting from the reduction of pastoral activity, leading to the use of sub-optimal resources by mouflon, (2) selective hunting on trophy males, (3) the recent history of mouflon from which our population originated, (4) summer drought. These processes influence the dynamics of the mouflon through (1) a decrease in phenotypic quality as measured by body mass and trophy size (processes 1 and 2), (2) variation in reproductive output of females (processes 3 and 4), (3) and variation in lamb summer survival (process 4). In moose, we showed that sexual size dimorphism (SSD) increases with increasing environmental seasonality, probably caused by higher resource quality when the growing season was short and intense. Selective hunting against males also shapes SSD by decreasing the proportion of adult males in the population. A low proportion of adult males could lead to a higher proportion of young males involved in reproduction, which in turn may have a negative impact on their body growth. Based on two cases studies at different spatial scales, our results highlighted the existence of specific biological characteristics in harvested populations. In addition to the environmental constraints under which these populations evolve, we demonstrated that man can have a strong impact on their demography

Full textAbstract:
As human populations continue to grow and encroach into wildlife habitats, instances of human-wildlife conflict are on the rise. Increasing numbers of reported wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) provide tangible evidence of anthropogenic impacts on wildlife as well as increasing threats to human health and safety. Increasing WVCs are of particular concern, especially those involving large-bodied ungulates such as moose (Alces spp.), because of the increased risk of property damage, personal injuries, and human fatalities. Motorists directly involved in a WVC are at risk of injury or mortality, but other motorists are also put at risk due to road obstructions and traffic congestion associated with WVCs. Mitigating these impacts on motorists and wildlife requires investigation into the temporal and spatial factors leading to WVCs.
In Alaska, most WVCs involve moose (Alces alces), a large bodied ungulate capable of threatening human life when involved in a collision. Each moose-vehicle collision (MVC) in Alaska is estimated to cost $33,000 in damages. With this analysis, I analyzed the plethora of factors contributing to moose and motorist occurrence on the road system and motorist detection based on a historical dataset of MVC reports throughout Alaska from 2000 to 2012 and a dataset of field-derived measurements at MVC locations within the Matanuska-Susitna Borough from 2016 to 2018. My first analysis focused on the daily and annual trends in MVC rates as compared to expected moose and human behavioral patterns with a focus on guiding mitigation strategies. Fifty percent of the MVCs reported between 2000 and 2012 occurred where the commuter rush hours overlapped with dusk and dawn in winter, and the artificial lighting differences between boroughs suggest a link between artificial lighting and reduced MVCs.
To focus more specifically on roadside features contributing to MVC risk, I collected and analyzed local and regional scale land cover and road geometry data at reported MVC sites in an area with a rapidly growing human population. I compared these data to similar data collected at random locations near documented MVC sites and at locations where moose that were fitted with global-positioning system (GPS) transmitters crossed highways. I used generalized additive mixed models to delineate which of the variables impacted the risk of both moose road crossings and MVCs. Moose road crossings were influenced by approximations of spatial, seasonal, and daily moose density as well as the proportion of deciduous-coniferous and coniferous forest in the area and the number of possible corridor or land cover types surrounding the site. The best MVC risk model was described by expected seasonal and daily changes in moose density and local scale measurements, including the sinuosity of the road, the height of vegetation near the road, and the angle between the road surface and the roadside. Together this information should guide transportation and urban planners in the Matanuska-Susitna Borough to use roadside vegetation removal, seasonal speed reduction, improved lighting strategies, dynamic signage, or partnerships with mobile mapping services to reactively reduce MVCs and to focus future road planning in areas with lower moose abundance and build roads that increase visibility and detection distances in areas where moose are common.
