Academic literature on the topic 'Amos Yong'

AbstractThis response by Donald Gelpi appreciates the accuracy of the reviewer's suggestion that the author's experience of charismatic prayer has very much conditioned both the author's written theology and his way of doing theol ogy. More particularly he acknowledges how it has conditioned his under standing of the role of the charisms in the shared faith of the Church, the centrality of the charisms in the practice and theology of the sacraments, and the role of the Spirit in the Paschal Mystery and in revealing the divinity of Jesus. Gelpi proceeds to discuss his notion of 'Christological knowing' as the unique knowledge of Jesus resulting from practical assimi lation to Him in the power of the Spirit—an experience that lies at the heart of Gelpi's Christology and is seen to provide it with its proper object of reflection, as Yong has correctly observed. Gelpi offers affirmation and fur ther elaboration on Yong's recognition of the importance of the philosophy of Charles Sanders Peirce in his own theological work. He joins Yong in the hope that the theological directions he has pursued and proposed might provide an experiential context for dialogue among the world religions.

The author addresses the discussion of his theology by D. Strange and A. Yong, defending his stance as an evangelical who is prepared to be adventurous within a community that contains a wide range of theological views. He briefly defends his version of inclusivism, arguing that it is compatible with evangelicalism.

Abstract: Christian thinkers are trying to seek a new way to relate to other religions, a more contextual way compared to the ways that have been constructed before. One of the new ways is a reconstruction of Christian theology of religions by focusing not on Ecclesiology or Christology, but on Pneumatology. This writing highlights the phenomenon of this pneumatological approach by exploring two views in the pneumatological approach to religions., namely, the views of Second Vatican Council and Amos Yong. This article will show that these pneumatological views to some extend underestimate the particularity of Jesus Christ. Keywords: Amos Yong, salvation, Holy Spirit, theology of religions, Vatican II. Abstrak: Di dalam berpapasan dengan agama-agama lain, pemikir-pemikir Kristen mencoba mencari pola hubungan yang dianggap lebih kontekstual dibandingkan pola-pola yang telah terbangun sebelumnya. Salah satunya adalah upaya merekonstruksi pemikiran Kristen tentang teologi agama-agama yang bukan lagi berporos pada eklesiologis maupun kristologis, tetapi melakukan pendekatan yang lebih pneumatologis. Tulisan ini menyoroti fenomena pendekatan pneumatologis ini dengan melakukan eksplorasi terhadap dua pandangan dalam pendekatan pneumatologis terhadap agama-agama, yaitu Konsili Vatikan II dan Amos Yong. Tulisan ini akan memperlihatkan bahwa pendekatan pneumatologis seperti yang diajarkan oleh Vatikan II dan Amos Yong cenderung menafikan partikularitas Yesus Kristus. Kata-kata Kunci: Amos Yong, keselamatan, Roh Kudus, teologi agama-agama, Vatikan II.

Penulisan ini bertujuan untuk mendialogkan pneumatologi religionum dari Stanley J. Samartha dan Amos Yong. Teolog pertama berasal dari konteks India dengan Hindu sebagai agama mayoritas dan termasuk dalam kelompok ekumenikal dan pluralisme. Samartha menekankan karya Roh Kudus tanpa menghubungkan dengan Yesus Kristus dalam hal keselamatan. Sedangkan teolog kedua berasal dari Malaysia tetapi ia lebih banyak melakukan teologi dalam konteks Amerika Utara dan tergabung dalam denominasi Pentakostal-Karismatik dalam kelompok teologi pembaharuan yang mengembangkan teologi Kristen dari dasar pneumatologi Trinitaris. Penulis menggunakan metode yang berfungsi untuk menggali pemikiran para teolog di atas dan mencari konvergensi dan divergensi dari sudut pandang kedua teolog tersebut. Kedua perspektif mengenai pneumatologi religionum tersebut akan didialogkan dan kemudian akan digunakan untuk mencapai beberapa kesimpulan yang pada akhirnya semakin memperkuat iman Kristen dan keterbukaan terhadap para pemeluk iman lain.

This article aims to explore hospitality as the basic character needed in the development of inter-religious dialogues. The character is reflected in a way of understanding that every religion has its own hospitable characteristic that can be used to start off an effective dialogue. It is also the aim this article to discern the philosophy of “hidup orang basudara” as the characteristic of hospitality among the Moluccans used in developing inter-religious dialogue in Moluccas.[Artikel ini menelusuri hospitalitas (keramah-tamahan) sebagai karakter dasar yang dibutuhkan dalam perkembangan dialog inter-religius. Karakter ini tercermin dalam cara pemahaman yang dimiliki setiap agama yakni karakter hospitalitas yang dapat digunakan untuk memulai dialog yang efektif. Inilah yang menjadi tujuan utama dari artikel ini yaitu untuk memahami falsafah “hidup orang basudara” sebagai bentuk hospitalitas pada masyarakat Mulucans dalam mengembangkan dialog inter-religius di Muloccas.]

Transitional care is an important process for professionals to consider, particularly as recent studies have shown how a mental health difficulty in adolescence will persist into adulthood. This indicates that a number of those seen in Child and Adolescent mental health services are likely to make the transition into Adult services. For professionals from both services, barriers can arise when supporting young people across service boundaries and recent studies have stated that the current practice of transitional care in mental health is deemed to be problematic. However at the time of conducting this study, there was a paucity of literature, therefore the aim of the study was to add to the existing knowledge. The study followed a Social Constructivist grounded theory (Charmaz, 2014) approach to explore the experience of stakeholders of the transition process. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with professionals, young people and parents. There were a total of eight interviews which were transcribed and analysed. The findings present the core category as Facing the transition, with three sub- categories: Changing status, Manoeuvring the boundaries and Reflections on the process. The tentative theory explains how facing the transition involves stakeholders adjusting to the changing status of the service user. This category triggers the service transition but also describes how societal perceptions about adulthood influence the expectations placed on young people. Manoeuvring the boundaries describes and explains service transition, identifying a range of barriers and strategies to overcome these. One of the most significant barriers was identified as cultural differences between the two services. The third category describes how stakeholders make sense of their experiences, and how these are managed within the therapeutic relationship.

Bakgrund: Den psykiska ohälsan bland unga har ökat de senaste två decennierna. Barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin, BUP, ansvarar för den specialiserade psykiatriska vården för de under 18 år medan vuxenpsykiatrin har ansvaret för de som blivit myndiga. Det finns stora skillnader mellan BUP och vuxenpsykiatrin och övergången mellan vårdformerna innebär en process för de unga vuxna, vilket kan beskrivas i termer av transition.  Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka patienternas beskrivna upplevelser av överföring från barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin till vuxenpsykiatrin. Metod: En kvalitativ litteraturöversikt med systematisk ansats. Resultat: Resultatet baseras på 13 vetenskapliga artiklar med kvalitativ design som sammantaget tydliggör tre övergripande teman som beskriver förändring. De unga vuxna beskriver förändrat ansvar, förändrade relationer samt förändrad identitet till följd av övergången mellan BUP och vuxenpsykiatrin. Slutsats: De unga vuxna beskriver bristande information, ostabila vårdrelationer och en ökad känsla av hopplöshet under transitionen. Fram till att de etablerat en tillitsfull kontakt finns en ökad risk att de unga vuxna faller ur vårdsystemet. En viktig faktor för att säkerställa kontinuitet är att det finns närvarande sjuksköterskor som stöd innan, under och efter transitionen. I detta avseende finns strukturell och individuell förbättringspotential som kräver forskning och metodutveckling.

Cyclograms are gait analysis tools that characterizes the geometric aspect of the pattern of locomotion. These are angle-angle diagrams, very useful for representing cyclic patterns such as walking. The hypothesis of this study was that the parameters extracted from the hip-knee cyclograms could identify age and sex of volunteers during walking on a treadmill with 0˚ to 5˚ slopes. Subjects were 40 physically active healthy adult volunteers, 20 young people (10 males) and 20 elderly (10 males). The volunteers were divided into 4 groups (young male group (JM), young female group (JF), elderly male group (IM) and elderly female group (IF)) and the average of parameters area (A), perimeter (P) and the ratio P/√A of cyclogram were calculated, as the speed and cadence. The average speed of JM was higher than IM (p=0,00) and was higher than JF to IF (p=0,00), while no differences were found between JM and JF (p=0,59), nor between IM and IF (p=0,95). The parameters extracted directly from cyclogram allow to discriminate the studied groups according to age (p<0,05), especially with treadmill inclined a 5˚, but it was not enough to determine the gender (p>0,508). The results were partially confirmed, because there were differences by age, but not between males and females.
Os ciclogramas são ferramentas de análise de marcha que caracterizam o aspecto geométrico do padrão de locomoção. Estes são diagramas ângulo-ângulo bastante úteis para representar padrões cíclicos como a marcha. A hipótese do presente trabalho foi que os parâmetros extraídos de ciclogramas quadril-joelho permitiriam identificar faixas etárias e gêneros de voluntários durante a marcha em esteira nas inclinações de 0˚ e 5˚. Participaram 40 voluntários adultos saudáveis, fisicamente ativos, sendo 20 jovens (10 do gênero masculino) e 20 idosos (10 do gênero masculino). Os voluntários foram divididos em 4 grupos (grupo jovem masculino (JM), grupo jovem feminino (JF), grupo idoso masculino (IM) e grupo idosos feminino (IF)) e foi calculada a média dos parâmetros área (A), perímetro (P) e a razão P/√A do ciclograma, além da velocidade e da cadência. A velocidade para JM foi maior que para IM (p = 0,00) e para JF foi maior que para IF (p = 0,00), enquanto que não foram encontradas significâncias estatísticas entre JM e JF (p = 0,59), nem entre IM e IF (p = 0,95). A análise dos parâmetros extraídos diretamente do ciclograma permitiu discriminar os grupos estudados segundo a idade (p < 0,05), sobretudo com a esteira inclinada a 5˚, mas não foi suficiente para determinação do gênero (p > 0,508). Os resultados foram confirmados parcialmente, uma vez que houve diferenças por faixa etária, mas não entre gêneros.

Introdução: Desde a década de 1960 diversos estudos tentam demonstrar o efeito do envelhecimento na motilidade esofágica, com resultados e populações estudadas discordantes. Objetivos: Avaliar os resultados manométricos em pacientes idosos (>= 60 anos) e comparálos com os achados manométricos de pacientes < 60 anos, correlacionando-os com dados clínicos e exames diagnósticos. Analisar os resultados manométricos do grupo idoso estratificando-os por década e compará-los entre si e com os resultados do grupo não idoso. Métodos: Estudo transversal, retrospectivo, realizado em hospital terciário da cidade de São Paulo, com avaliação de prontuários dos pacientes que realizaram manometria esofágica de janeiro de 2003 a dezembro de 2011. Foram incluídos: idosos (>= 60 anos) e controles não idosos ( < 60 anos) de ambos os sexos. Os critérios de inclusão foram idade >= 18 anos com indicação para manometria esofágica. Foram excluídos se submetidos à cirurgia prévia do trato gastrointestinal (gastrectomia, esofagectomia, miotomia esofágica, fundoplicatura), à procedimentos endoscópicos prévios (dilatação esofágica, injeção de toxina botulínica) e/ou ausência de endoscopia digestiva alta prévia até um ano antes do procedimento. Esses foram avaliados quanto ao sexo, queixa principal para indicação da manometria esofágica, comorbidades, medicações em uso, tabagismo, etilismo, e resultado da endoscopia, da manometria esofágica e da pHmetria de 24 horas. Os dados estatísticos foram analisados com o software SPSS versão 19. Resultados: O estudo incluiu 1175 pacientes (936 idosos e 239 não idosos) com idade entre 19 a 92 anos, sendo 76,5% do sexo feminino no grupo idoso e 72,8% no não idoso. Eram tabagistas ativos 6,1% no grupo idoso e 15,5% no não idoso. Os grupos não diferiram quanto ao etilismo (p=0,412). Disfagia (20,7%) e tosse (12%) foram as queixas mais frequentes no grupo idoso e pirose (57,3%), regurgitação (28,5%) e disfonia (13,8%) no não idoso. Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica, dislipidemia, osteoartrose, osteoporose, Diabetes Melito, cardiopatia, neoplasia e dispepsia foram as doenças mais frequentes no grupo idoso, e pacientes sem doenças no não idoso. Outros medicamentos, diuréticos, inibidores da enzima conversora da angiotensina, antiinflamatórios não-esteroidais, ácido acetil salicílico, hipoglicemiante, ?-bloqueador, bloqueador do canal do cálcio, hipolipemiante, bifosfonado e cálcio foram as medicações mais frequentes utilizadas por idosos, e nenhuma medicação mais frequente no grupo não idoso. Hérnia hiatal e outros achados foram os resultados de endoscopia do grupo idoso mais frequentes, e resultado Normal e esofagite erosiva grau I de Savary-Miller mais frequentes no não idoso. Na pHmetria, o grupo idoso apresentou médias maiores de DeMeester e % total do tempo com pH < 4,0. Os resultados de exame de Manometria relaxamento do esfíncter inferior do esôfago normal (91,1% vs 84,8%) e peristalse normal (87,4% vs 76%) foram mais frequentes no grupo não idoso. Na conclusão da manometria foram encontrados: Acalásia em 5,9% no grupo idoso e 2,9% no não idoso; Distúrbio Hipercontrátil em 10,4% no grupo idoso e 9,2% no não idoso; Distúrbio Hipocontrátil em 47,6% no grupo idoso e 28,5% no não idoso; e resultado Normal em 36,1% no grupo idoso e 49,4% no não idoso. Quando estratificados por década, os grupos evidenciaram resultados semelhantes à comparação entre idoso e não idoso quanto ao sexo, tabagismo, etilismo, queixas principais, doenças associadas, medicações em uso, e resultados da endoscopia, da pHmetria e da manometria (menor percentual de resultado Normal e maior percentual de Distúrbio Hipocontrátil no grupo idoso; p=0,007). Mesmo quando se excluiu as variáveis que poderiam alterar a motilidade esofágica e as que apresentaram diferença estatisticamente significativa, em relação à conclusão da manometria, se manteve o menor percentual de resultado Normal e maior percentual de Distúrbio Hipocontrátil no grupo idoso em relação ao não idoso. Conclusão: O grupo idoso em relação ao não idoso evidenciou menor percentual de pressão média do corpo esofágico, peristalse normal e relaxamento do esfíncter inferior do esôfago normal. Quanto à conclusão da manometria o grupo idoso apresentou menor percentual de resultado Normal e maior de Distúrbio Hipocontrátil. Mesmo após exclusão das variáveis que poderiam alterar a motilidade esofágica a diferença quanto à conclusão da manometria se manteve. Na estratificação por década (\"60 a 69 anos\", \"70 a 79 anos\" e \">= 80 anos\") na conclusão da manometria houve menor percentual de resultado Normal e maior de Distúrbio Hipocontrátil em relação aos não idosos, porém os grupos idosos não diferiram entre si
Introduction: Since the 1960 several studies attempt to demonstrate the effect of aging on esophageal motility, with results and dissenting populations studied. Objectives: to evaluate the manometric results in elderly patients ( >= 60 years) and compare them with the manometric findings of patients < 60 years, correlating with clinical data and diagnostic tests. Analyze the manometric results of the elderly group stratifying them by decade and compare them with each other and with the non-elderly group. Methods: a retrospective, cross-sectional study, conducted in a tertiary hospital in the city of São Paulo, with evaluation of medical records of patients who performed esophageal manometry of January 2003 to December 2011. Were included: elderly ( >= 60 years) and non-elderly controls ( < 60 years) of both sexes. Inclusion criteria were age >= 18 years with an indication for esophageal manometry. Were excluded if prior surgery of the gastrointestinal tract (gastrectomy, esophagectomy, esophageal myotomy, fundoplication), the prior endoscopic procedures (esophageal dilation, injection of botulinum toxin) and/or absence of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy prior to one year before the procedure. These were assessed as to sex, chief complaint about indication of esophageal manometry, comorbidities, medications in use, smoking, alcoholism, and result of the endoscopy, esophageal manometry and pHmetry. The statistical data were analyzed with SPSS software version 19. Results: the study included 1175 patients (936 elderly and 239 non-elderly) aged between 19 to 92 years, with 76.5% female in the elderly group and 72.8% in the non-elderly. Were smokers 6.1% in the elderly group and 15.5% in the non-elderly. The groups did not differ with regard to alcoholism (p = 0.412). Dysphagia (20.7%) and cough (12%) were the most frequent complaints in the elderly group and heartburn (57.3%), regurgitation (28.5%) and dysphonia (13.8%) in the non-elderly. Hypertension, dyslipidemia, osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, Diabetes Mellitus, heart disease, neoplasia, and dyspepsia were the most frequent diseases in the elderly group and patients without disease in non-elderly. Other medications, diuretics, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, acetylsalicylic acid, hypoglycemic, beta-blocker, calcium channel blocker, hypolipidemic, biphosphonate and calcium were the most frequently used medications for the elderly, and any medication more often in the non-elderly group. A hiatal hernia and other findings were the results of endoscopy more frequent of the elderly group, and Normal result and Erosive Esophagitis grade I of Savary-Miller more frequent in nonelderly. In pHmetry, the elderly group presented higher averages DeMeester and % total time with pH < 4.0. The results of manometry test relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter (91.1% vs. 84.8%) and normal peristalsis (87.4% vs. 76%) were more frequent in the non-elderly group. At the conclusion of the manometry were found: achalasia in 5.9% in the elderly group and 2.9% in the non-elderly; Hipercontrátil disorder in 10.4% in the elderly group and 9.2% in non-elderly; Hipocontrátil disorder in 47.6% in the elderly group and 28.5% in non-elderly; and Normal result in 36.1% in the elderly group and 49.4% in non-elderly. When stratified by decade, the groups showed similar results to the comparison between elderly and non-elderly as sex, smoking, alcoholism, main complaints, associated diseases, medications in use, and the results of pHmetry, endoscopy and manometry (lower percentage of Normal result and higher percentage of Hipocontrátil Disorder in the elderly group; p = 0.007). Even when deleted the variables that could alter the esophageal motility and that showed statistically significant difference, in relation to the conclusion of manometry, remained the lowest percentage of Normal result and higher percentage of Hipocontrátil Disorder in the elderly group in relation to the non-elderly. Conclusion: The elderly group in relation to the non-elderly showed lower percentage of average pressure of esophageal body, normal peristalsis and normal relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter. As to the conclusion of the manometry the elderly group showed lower percentage of Normal result and higher Hipocontrátil Disorder. Even after exclusion of variables that could change the esophageal motility the difference regarding the completion of manometry remained. In the stratification by decade (\"60 to 69 years,\" \"70 to 79 years\" and \">= 80 years\") at the conclusion of the manometry there was less Normal result and higher percentage of Hipocontrátil Disorder in relation to the non-elderly, but the elderly groups did not differ among themselves

Na atualidade destaca-se o modo com que as pessoas vivenciam suas relações amorosas, entre elas o ficar, que é caracterizado pela curta duração de tempo, a falta de compromisso, e o envolvimento com vários parceiros. Nesse contexto, esta pesquisa teve por objetivo investigar o ficar por meio do habitus e da trajetória de vida dos jovens. A metodologia é qualitativa, cuja técnica principal de coleta de dados foi a entrevista semiestruturada; para tanto, foram entrevistados jovens entre 18 e 30 anos de idade, de ambos os gêneros, graduandos do curso de Pedagogia de uma Universidade Pública no interior do Estado de São Paulo. Ademais, o referencial teórico de Pierre Bourdieu deu luz à interpretação dos dados obtidos. Quanto aos resultados da pesquisa, esses revelam certa regularidade na trajetória dos jovens quando o assunto abordado é sexualidade e educação sexual, pois os mesmos admitiram receber instruções pontuais sobre esses assuntos nas agências de socialização: família e escola. No âmbito do ficar, os resultados mostram que para os jovens esta é uma relação de curto prazo, sem vínculos e compromisso, sendo representado desde o ato de beijar até um estado pré-namoro. Como conclusão, verifica-se que não faz parte do habitus da família e da escola discorrer sobre a sexualidade e a educação sexual, pois ainda é um processo difícil e custoso para os agentes envolvidos. Sobre o ficar, os jovens entrevistados descrevem que faz parte do seu habitus, a vivência dessa relação e a das pessoas que integram seu convívio social
Nowadays stands out the way in which people experience their love relationships, including the hook up, which has as main characteristics the short time, the lack of commitment, and the engagement with several partners. In this context, this research aimed to investigate the hook up, through the habitus and the trajectory of life of young people. The methodology is qualitative whose main technique for data collection was semi-structured interview. Therefore, young people were interviewed from 18 and 30 years old, both genders, graduate of the pedagogy course at a public university in the state of São Paulo. Furthermore, the theoretical reference of Pierre Bourdieu gave birth to interpretation of data obtained. About the results of the research, these reveal some regularity in the trajectory of young people when the subject is sexuality and sexual education, because young people admitted receiving specific instructions on these subjects in the socialization agents (family and school). In the framework hook up, the results show that for young people this is a short relationship, without ties and commitment, it has been represented since the act of kissing to a pre-dating status. In conclusion, it is found that it isn't part of the family and school habitus to discuss about sexuality and sexual education, because it is a difficult and costly process for those involved. About hook up, the young people interviewed describe that it is part of their habitus the experience of this relationship and the people in your social life

This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (D.Clin.Psy.) at the School of Psychology, University of Birmingham, UK. It comprises two volumes. Volume I consists of the research component whilst Volume II comprises the written clinical component based on work completed during training. Volume I comprises of a systematic literature review, an empirical research paper and a public domain paper. The systematic literature review considers available literature investigating mental health literacy and help-seeking behaviours in young people. The empirical research paper explores young people’s experiences who upon reaching the upper age limit for Child Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are discharged rather than being transferred into Adult Mental Health Services (AMHS). Volume II contains five Clinical Practice Reports (CPR’s). CPR1 presents both cognitive behavioural and systemic formulations of a 16 year old female referred to CAMHS due to symptoms of depression. CPR2 is a service evaluation which aimed to assess service users’ perspectives of the Choice And Partnership Approach (CAPA), a newly implemented way of working within CAMHS. CPR3 presents a case-study of a 67 year old man, referred to mental health services for older people, due to long-standing symptoms of depression. CPR4 documents a single-case experimental design that assessed the effectiveness of a behavioural intervention implemented to reduce symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in a 13 year old male with a moderate learning disability. An abstract outlining CPR5, a clinical presentation about a 21 year old female referred to a systemic service following developing symptoms of depression related to difficult family relationships is also included.

Le processus d'accrétion joue un rôle crucial dans le scénario de formation stellaire. Il régit l'interaction des étoiles jeunes avec leurs disques, en régulant l'échange de masse et de moment cinétique; ainsi, il a un impact durable sur leur évolution. De plus, l'accrétion est un ingrédient essentiel de la physique des systèmes étoile-disque à l'époque de formation planétaire. Selon le modèle d'accrétion magnétosphérique, une cavité de quelques rayons stellaires s'étend de la surface de l'étoile au bord interne du disque. L'interaction se produit donc par le champ magnétique stellaire, qui pénètre le disque interne et l'attèle à l'objet central. Des colonnes d'accrétion se développent du disque interne suivant les lignes de champ, et atteignent l'étoile à des vitesses presque de chute libre. L'impact à la surface crée des chocs localisés, qui sont responsables de l'excès de luminosité UV distinctif des systèmes accrétants par rapport aux objets non-accrétants. L'évolution temporelle intrinsèque et l'effet d'alternance du côté visible des objets au cours de leur rotation se mélangent dans la variabilité photométrique typique des étoiles jeunes, révélée par les campagnes de suivi.Durant ma thèse, j'ai mené une étude statistique du processus d'accrétion et de sa variabilité dans la région NGC 2264 (3 Myr). Cet amas contient plus de 700 membres, repartis entre étoiles avec disque (45%) et sans disque. J'ai qualifié l'accrétion par la diagnostique de l'excès UV; les étoiles de l'amas privées de disque définissent le niveau d'émission de référence au-dessus duquel l'excès UV provenant du choc d'accrétion est décelé et mesuré. Mon étude se base sur un jeu de données photométriques obtenues au télescope Canada-France-Hawaii (CFHT), comprenant un relevé profond en 4 filtres (u,g,r,i) et un suivi simultané de variabilité optique (bande r) et UV (bande u) d'une durée de 2 semaines et avec échantillonnage de l'ordre des heures. Dans une première étape de cette étude, je convertis les excès UV en taux d'accrétion pour obtenir une image globale du processus à travers l'amas et examiner sa dépendance envers les paramètres stellaires. Le taux d'accrétion moyen corrèle avec la masse de l'étoile, bien qu'une dispersion significative autour de cette tendance moyenne soit observée à chaque masse. Je montre que cet étalement ne peut pas être justifié par la variabilité des objets; une diversité de mécanismes d'accrétion et de stades évolutifs dans l'amas pourrait contribuer à la vaste gamme de régimes d'accrétion décelés. Ensuite, j'explore les signatures dans l'UV propres à des types distincts d'étoiles jeunes variables. Je montre que les étoiles accrétantes présentent en général une variabilité plus prononcée que les objets sans disque, et que les respectives variations de couleur sont cohérentes avec une origine différente de la variabilité associée aux deux groupes. Pour le premier groupe, ce sont les chocs d'accrétion à dominer, alors que le deuxième est dominé par des taches froides à la surface, dérivant de l'activité magnétique stellaire. Je compare les variations photométriques mesurées sur bases de quelques heures, quelques jours et quelques années, afin de déterminer quelles soient les composantes de variabilité les plus importantes. L'échelle de temps de quelques jours prévaut sur les autres délais investigués dans la variabilité enregistrée pour ces étoiles jeunes, avec une contribution majeure provenant de l'effet de modulation rotationnelle. Enfin, j'analyse les propriétés de rotation des étoiles de l'amas à partir d'un jeu de courbes de lumière optiques, d'une durée de 38 jours, obtenues avec le satellite CoRoT près de la campagne d'observation au CFHT. Je reconstruis la distribution de périodes de l'amas et montre que les objets sans disque tournent statistiquement plus vite que les objets accrétants. Cette connexion entre les propriétés d'accrétion et celles de rotation peut être interprétée dans le scénario de disk-locking
Disk accretion plays a most important role in the star formation scenario. It governs the interaction of young stars with their disks, with a long-lasting impact on stellar evolution, by providing both mass and angular momentum regulation. Accretion is also a central ingredient in the physics of star-disk systems at the epoch when planets start to form. In the picture of magnetospheric accretion, a cavity of a few stellar radii extends from the star surface to the inner disk rim. The star-disk interaction is then mediated by the stellar magnetic field, whose lines thread the inner disk and couple it to the central object. Material from the inner disk is channeled along the field lines in accretion columns that reach the star at near free-fall velocities. The impact produces localized hot shocks at the stellar surface, which determine the distinctive UV excess emission of accreting objects relative to non-accreting sources. Intrinsic time evolution, and varying visibility of surface features during stellar rotation, combine in the characteristic photometric variability of young stars, revealed by monitoring surveys.In this thesis, I investigate the statistical properties of disk accretion and of its variability in the young open cluster NGC 2264 (3 Myr). This comprises a population of over 700 objects, about similarly distributed between disk-bearing (45%) and disk-free sources. I characterize accretion from the UV excess diagnostics; disk-free cluster members define the reference emission level over which the UV excess linked to accretion is detected and measured. The study is based on a homogeneous photometric dataset obtained at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), composed of a deep mapping of the region in four different bands (u,g,r,i) and of simultaneous optical (r-band) and UV (u-band) monitoring on timescales from hours to days for a period of 2 weeks. In the first part of the study, UV excesses are converted to accretion luminosities and mass accretion rates to derive a global picture of the accretion process across the cluster, and to investigate the dependence of the typical accretion properties on stellar parameters such as mass and age. A robust correlation is detected between the average accretion rate and stellar mass, but a significant dispersion in accretion rates is observed around this average trend at any given mass. I show that the extent of this spread cannot be accounted for by typical variability on week timescales; I discuss several aspects, including a diversity in accretion mechanisms and a non-negligible evolutionary spread among cluster members, which may contribute to the broad range of accretion regimes detected. In the second part of the study, I explore the variability signatures in the UV that pertain to different types of variable young stars. I show that accreting objects typically exhibit stronger variability than non-accreting objects, and that the color properties associated with the two groups are consistent with a statistically distinct origin of the variability features in the two cases. These are dominated, in the first case, by hot accretion spots, and in the second, by cold spots linked to magnetic activity. I compare the amounts of variability on timescales of hours, days and years, to assess the dominant components. The mid term (days) appears to be the leading timescale for variability in young stars up to years, with a major contribution from rotational modulation. In the third part of the study, I use a set of 38 day-long optical light curves obtained with the CoRoT satellite, close to the epoch of the CFHT survey, to investigate periodicity and rotation properties in NGC 2264. I derive the period distribution for the cluster and show that accreting and non-accreting objects exhibit statistically distinct properties: the second rotate on average faster than the first. I then illustrate the connection between accretion and rotation properties in the disk-locking scenario

Les joves tutelades són un col·lectiu del que es desconeix les seves necessitats específiques socioeducatives i socioemocionals. Aquest desconeixement s’explica en gran part per la tímida producció d’estudis que se centren en la realitat d’aquestes noies, i encara més si es pretén comprendre la seva realitat des d’una perspectiva feminista. La metodologia utilitzada pel desenvolupament de l’estudi té un enfocament predominantment qualitatiu, el disseny és qualitatiu però l’anàlisi de les dades és mixt. La mostra la configuren 59 dones joves (29 tutelades i 30 no tutelades). L’aproximació quantitativa de la dades s’ha elaborat a partir de l’anàlisi de freqüències i el qualitatiu seguint un anàlisi temàtic. L’anàlisi es va portar a trem amb el software qualitatiu Nvivo12. Els principals resultats mostren que la percepció sobre la violència masclista és bastant semblant entre les participants d’ambdós grups. En funció del grau de coneixement que tenen sobre els aspectes fonamentals de la violència masclista en la parella, aquestes consideren un tipus violències més greus que unes altres. En aquest sentit, s’identifiquen quatre estratègies molt clares d’afrontament de laviolència masclista en les relacions sexo-afectives. Altrament, el capital social va emergir com un element que es relacionaria amb el tipus d’estratègia. Des del punt de vista del capital social, les joves tutelades tindrien una percepció baixa o nul·la sobre el suport que poden arribar a rebre d’aquest. En aquest sentit, es pot afirmar que elles es troben força soles en situacions adverses com és quedar-se sense recursos econòmics en comparació amb les no tutelades, les quals semblen sentir-se més segures per la gent que configura la seva font de recursos emocionals, d’oci i econòmics. A més a més, existeixen diferències importants entre els dos grups en el projecte de vida. Aquest es veuria molt determinat per l’experiència d’haver estat tutelada, o no. D’acord amb els resultats obtinguts aquest treball proposa, a mode de conceptualització teòrica, el femtoring (mentoría feminista) com a eina socioeducativa empoderant. Un tipus d’intervenció socioeducativa que promogui la (re-)construcció del capital social de suport de les joves tutelades.
Las jóvenes tuteladas son un colectivo del que se desconoce sus necesidades socioeducativas y socioemocionales concretas, al existir una tímida producción de estudios que se centren en la realidad de estas jóvenes, más aún si la pensamos desde la perspectiva feminista. La metodología empleada para el desarrollo del estudio tiene un enfoque predominantemente cualitativo, el diseño es de corte cualitativo pero el análisis de los datos es mixto. La muestra la configuran 59 mujeres jóvenes (29 tuteladas y 30 no tuteladas). La aproximación cuantitativa de los datos se ha elaborado a partir del análisis de frecuencias y el cualitativo siguiendo un análisis temático. El análisis se llevó a cabo con el software de análisis cualitativo Nvivo12. Los principales resultados muestran que la percepción sobre la violencia machista es bastante parecida entre las participantes de ambos grupos. En función del grado de conocimiento que tienen sobre los aspectos fundamentales de la violencia machista en la pareja, estas consideran unas u otras violencias como más o menos graves. En este sentido, se identifican cuatro estrategias de afrontamiento de la violencia machista en las relaciones afectivo-sexuales muy claras, las cuales se ejercerían según la percepción de peligrosidad y el grado de aceptación social que tiene la violencia. Por su parte, el capital social ha emergido como una intersección que se relacionaría con el tipo de estrategia de afrontamiento. Desde el punto de vista del capital social, las jóvenes tuteladas tendrían una percepción baja o nula sobre el apoyo que pueden llegar a recibir de su capital social, por lo que se sentirían bastante solas frente a situaciones adversas como quedarse sin recursos económicos en comparación con las no tuteladas, quienes parecen sentirse muy seguras por la gente que compone sus recursos emocionales, de ocio y económicos. Asimismo, existen diferencias notorias en el proyecto de vida entre los dos grupos, los cuales están muy determinados por la experiencia de haber sido, o no, tuteladas. A la luz de estos resultados este trabajo propone, a modo de conceptualización teórica, el femtoring (mentoría feminista) como herramienta socioeducativa empoderante para (re-) construir el capital social de apoyo de las jóvenes tuteladas.
Young women in foster care are a group of people whose specific social and educational needs, as well as their social and emotional needs, are unknown, as there is limited research focused on their reality, even more so from a feminist perspective. The methodology used for the study has a predominantly qualitative approach; the design is qualitative, but the data analysis is mixed. The population were 59 young women (29 foster care girls and 30 non foster care).The quantitative approach for data analysis is based on frequency analysis, and the qualitative approach follows a topic-based analysis. The analysis was carried out with the qualitative data analysis application Nvivo12. The main results show that the perception of male violence is quite similar among the participants of both groups. Depending on the degree of knowledge they have about the fundamental aspects of male violence in the romantic couple, they consider one or the other type of violence as more or less serious. In this sense, four very clear strategies for coping with male violence in sexual and affective relationships are identified, which are used according to the perception of danger and the degree of social acceptance of violence. Moreover, social capital would have a relationship with the strategy for coping with violence. From the point of view of the social network, the girls in foster care would have a low or no perception of the support they can receive from their social network, so they would feel quite lonely in the face of adverse situations such as running out of economic resources in comparison with those who were not in foster care, who seem to feel very secure because of the people who make up their emotional, leisure, and economic resources. Likewise, there are notorious differences in the life purpose of the two groups, which are very much determined by the experience of having been, or not, in foster care. In light of these results, this paper proposes the theoretical concept of femtoring (feminist mentoring) as an empowering social and educational tool to (re-)build the support social network of young women in foster care.

This thesis examines the role of the Australian Catholic Church, its leaders and its relevant agencies and organisations in advocating for and welcoming people living with a disability into the life of the Church. It is intended that this thesis will go beyond issues of accessibility and definitions of “disability” and instead explore developments and tensions in the Australian Catholic Church’s response to issues of disability. It is clear from the literature and the qualitative interviews examined throughout this thesis that, at the rhetorical level, the Australian Catholic Church accepts, welcomes and advocates for all people regardless of their intellectual or physical abilities. This inquiry seeks to investigate the relationship between this rhetoric and actual substantive efforts towards inclusion of people living with a disability. It finds, based on the lack of substantive evidence revealing actual inclusionary practices, that there is a significant contradiction between the policy rhetoric and practice. To this end, it will be argued that the Australian Catholic Church is not engaged in sufficient practical action to foster and support communities to genuinely welcome people living with a disability and to enhance their sense of belonging to such communities. While acknowledging some good work being conducted by individual Church agencies, based on the evidence accrued from the qualitative data gathered for this thesis, it is the contention of the researcher that there are few tangible, consistent or concrete strategies or actions towards inclusion and genuine belonging that one can point to in day-to-day practice in the Catholic Church community. It is a central concern of this research to open up a conversation, dialogue and debate that might bridge the gulf between the policy rhetoric and practice, and so foster more positive inclusionary approaches and substantive change in this area of Catholic Church life.

La dernière décennie fut marquée par l’avènement des sites de réseautage social ouvrant la voie à une nouvelle façon de communiquer. Avec 900 millions d’utilisateurs, Facebook est de loin le plus populaire de ces sites (Facebook, 2013). Les caractéristiques propres à cette plateforme, telles que l’information présente en ligne de même que la nature publique des interactions, imposent une réflexion sur son potentiel social. Nombre d’auteurs suggèrent que l’utilisation de Facebook pourrait mener à une augmentation du capital social et plus précisément du capital social de type bridging. Basée sur cette théorisation du réseau social établie par Putnam (2001), cette recherche s’est interrogée sur la participation de Facebook à la restructuration du réseau social chez les jeunes universitaires. Ainsi, 176 étudiants nouvellement arrivés à l’Université de Montréal furent interrogés à l’aide d’un questionnaire et d’entrevues. Cette façon de procéder permit de comparer les interactions que les étudiants ont en ligne aux interactions qu’ils ont en face-à-face. Il ressort de cette recherche que Facebook permet de fixer les liens sociaux naissants et facilite la formation de groupes dans un nouvel environnement. De plus, l’utilisation de cette plateforme accompagne le jeune tout au long de son parcours social et s’inscrit ainsi dans un processus évolutif.
The last decade was marked by the advent of social networking sites, Facebook, with 900 million users, is by far the most popular of these sites (Facebook, 2013). The inherent characteristics of this platform, such as the information archived online as well as the public nature of the interactions, require a reflection on its social potential. Many authors suggested that the use of Facebook could lead to an increase of social capital and more specifically bridging social capital. Based on this theorization of social network established by Putnam (2001), this research questioned the involvement of Facebook during the restructuration of young adults’ social network. Data was retrieved using a questionnaire and interviews from 176 students newly arrived at the University of Montreal. This procedure allowed comparing students online interactions with their offline interactions. It is clear from this research that Facebook secures emerging social ties and facilitates the formation of groups in a new environment. In addition, the use of this platform accompanies the young adults throughout their life trajectories and is part of an evolutionary process.

Abstract: Among several urban plans designed for Berlin, we find Le Corbusier`s project for the Hauptstadt Berlin 1958 competition, which aimed at thinking the reconstruction of the city center destroyed in the II World War. Corbusier`s relation with Berlin dates back to 1910, when he arrives at the city to work at Peter Behrens` office. So, for him, the plan for Berlin was a rare opportunity to develop ideas about the city that provided one of the largest contributions to his urban design education, and also to develop ideas he formulated forty years before for Paris` center. Besides that, this project was developed almost simultaneously with CIAM`s crises and dissolution, which culminated in the 50`s with the consequent appearance of Team 10. At that moment Corbusier`s universalist approach to urbanism starts to be challenged by CIAM`s young generation, which had a critical approach towards the design methods inherited from the previous generation, associated with CIAM`s foundational moment. From the beginning of the 50`s on, this new generation balances the universalist ideals inherited from the previous generation with individualist ones they identified as necessary to face the new post war reality. Thus, the main goal of this paper is to analyse Corbusier’s design for Berlin and question whether he, at an already mature point of his career, was proposing a plan that answered only the questions that were important to CIAM and to the canonical principles of modern architecture, or if he had also addressed those that belonged to the new generation and Team 10`s agenda, both of them present in the debates of the moment, largely identified as a transitional period. Resumen: Entre varios planes urbanos diseñados para Berlín, esta el proyecto de Le Corbusier para el concurso Hauptstadt Berlín 1958, que tenia como objetivo pensar la reconstrucción del centro de la ciudad, destruida en la II Guerra Mundial. La relación de Corbusier con Berlín se remonta a 1910, cuando llega a la ciudad para trabajar en la oficina de Peter Behrens. Así que, para él, el plan de Berlín fue una rara oportunidad de desarrollar ideas sobre la ciudad que dio una de las mayores enseñanzas a su aprendizaje en diseño urbano, y también para desarrollar las ideas que formuló cuarenta años antes para el centro Paris. Además de eso, este proyecto se ha desarrollado simultáneamente con la crisis y disolución de CIAM, y con la aparición de Team 10. En ese momento, el enfoque universalista de Corbusier comienza a ser cuestionado por la generación joven de CIAM, que tenía enfoque crítico hacia los métodos de diseño heredados de la generación anterior. Desde el principio de los 50`s, esta nueva generación equilibra los ideales universalistas heredados de la generación anterior con los individualistas necesarios para hacer frente a la nueva realidad. Por lo tanto, lo principal objetivo de este trabajo es analizar el diseño de Corbusier para Berlín y cuestionar si, en un punto ya maduro de su carrera, él propone un plan que respondió sólo las cuestiones que eran importantes para CIAM y a los principios canónicos de la arquitectura moderna, o si también se trataron temas que pertenecían a la nueva generación y a la agenda del Team 10, ambos presentes en los debates del momento, en gran parte identificado como un período de transición.
