Fraisse, Geneviève. "La difference des sexes recherches sur une forme de la connaissance." Paris, EHESS, 1997. http://www.theses.fr/1997EHES0110.
Full textThe notion of sexual difference does not belong to an already constituted field of research. In philosophy, it is not recognized as a philosophical object. In the last twenty years, my research's main objective has been the production of the epistemological conditions necessary for the constitution of such a field. Through the history of modern and contemporary feminist thought i have tried to answer questions of definition: the definitions of women's reason, of modern citizenship, of political emancipation. Dealing with the history of thought requires a genealogical reading of modernity: my purpose was to understand how women have been excluded from the res publica in the wake of the french revolution, and then how they have been at the same time included and discriminated against. My reading of modernity clearly shows how difficult it is to give a content to the notion of "equality" of the sexes. My analysis of modernity also allows and calls for an attentive reading of the major philosophers. Such a reading shows how the difference of the sexes intervenes in the very process of philosophical thought: the "women's question" raises interesting stakes for philosophers, while the difference of the sexes appears as an important operator in the dynamic process of the end of metaphysics. Thinking through the difference of the sexes thus becomes a philosophical objective. Western philosophical tradition both shows how eros and love have been used as a way to think about the sexes and, consequently, how philosophy has envisaged the place of sexual difference in its own history. In fact, the difference of the sexes intervenes in two ways in philosophical thought: first as a primal difference through which humanity thinks about itself, and second as a means of exchange within thought itself. For philosophers, sexual difference is thus not an object of thought but rather an origin and a means through which thought is produced
Maltese, François. "Effets d’une situation de comparaison sociale dans les différences liées au sexe en rotation mentale : Une étude avec des jumeaux dizygotes." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013AIXM3045/document.
Full textThe mental rotation test (MRT) is the most robust test revealing that men outperform women. Two major causes have been proposed for explaining the origin of this difference. The first focused on brain masculinization under the action of androgen during the fetal development. Vuoksimaa et al., (2010) showed that dizygotic opposite-sex female have greater performances than dizygotic same-sex female. For the second hypothesis, sex difference is mainly due to social regulation factors and stereotype threat interaction. We test here this second hypothesis. In a twin design we tested, for the first time, these two causal explanations. Same-sex dizygotic young adult pairs (23 pairs of males and 34 pairs of females), and opposite-sex dizygotic pairs (62 pairs) took a computerized MRT in two experimental co-action conditions. In the first condition, the experimental situation make the co-twin comparison possible (CSP): “you and your co-twin do the same test today”, and in the other experimental condition called, improbable comparison situation (CSI), they are told that: “you and your co-twin do different test today”. Accuracy and responses time where analyzed. Our results do not support the biological model but, in contrary, support the social regulation and stereotype threat model
Bencivenga, Rita. "Femmes et hommes face à l’ordinateur : histoires du développement d’une relation positive." Thesis, Paris 10, 2012. http://www.theses.fr/2012PA100212/document.
Full textWhen we talk about adults using computers, inequalities between women and men very often emerge, and particular emphasis is placed on the negative relationship which women supposedly have with computers. Studies on ways of reducing these inequalities have often been based on information collected by IT professionals or expert users. This leaves out the majority of normal users (both women and men). Therefore we have very little information on people who, although they are not experts or professionals, appreciate computers and use one regularly and confidently. This thesis is aimed at this particular group of people. The main objective was to gather information on how women and men who are regular but non-professional users can form positive relationships with ICT computers. Twenty-five narrative interviews were conducted with this aim in mind. Based on a comparison between the sexes, the study explores potential inequalities between women/men and examines the potential role of gender, that is, a “hierarchical system of norms for each sex”. The results show that positive relationships are based on the same aspects for both women and men. The influence of gender depends on power games and on recognising situations which defy the imagination, in which men are much closer to technology than women

Full textEl principal objetivo de esta tesis consiste en evaluar y mapear la investigación internacional sobre género en ciencia y educación superior. Para ello, se han diseñado dos estudios: por un lado, el análisis del desarrollo y crecimiento de la literatura científica sobre la participación de las mujeres en la ciencia y la educación superior, y, por otro lado, el análisis de la estructura y evolución de la literatura científica sobre diferencias de género en educación superior y ciencia, haciendo especial hincapié en los factores que se hallan detrás de estas diferencias. Para el primer estudio, centrado en el desarrollo y crecimiento de la literatura científica sobre la participación de las mujeres en la ciencia y la educación superior, se extrajeron un total de 1.415 artículos y revisiones publicadas entre los años 1991 y 2012 en la base de datos Web of Science de Thomson Reuters. Para el segundo estudio, enfocado en la evolución de la literatura científica sobre diferencias de género, el conjunto de datos comprende un corpus de 651 artículos y revisiones publicadas entre los años 1991 y 2012 en la base de datos Web of Science de Thomson Reuters. La metodología y procedimientos empleados incluyen indicadores y leyes bibliométricas estándar (por ej. Price, Lotka y Bradford), el Índice Relativo de Intensidad (RII) y el Índice de Desigualdad de Género (GII). El conjunto de datos del segundo estudio se evalúa en diferentes períodos de tiempo, a partir de un análisis de co-ocurrencia de palabras y de agrupamiento jerárquico. Los resultados de estos análisis muestran una tendencia al alza tanto en el número de artículos como en el número de autores por artículo. Sin embargo, este aumento en el número de autores no se ve acompañado de un aumento en la colaboración internacional. Los resultados ponen también de relieve cómo el interés en el estudio de las diferencias de género en la ciencia y en la educación superior se extiende a muchos autores (n = 3.064), países (n = 67) y áreas de investigación (n = 86). Los datos muestran también una gran dispersión de la literatura con un pequeño conjunto de revistas especializadas en el tema, siendo el área de “Educación e Investigación para la Educación” el área con más trabajos. Los resultados también indican un aumento significativo del número de temas analizados a lo largo de los años. Asimismo, el hecho que las diferencias de género en ciencia y educación superior hayan sido objeto de estudio de diferentes disciplinas sugiere importantes variaciones en campos de estudio específicos.
Montalban, Castilla José. "Addressing Inequalities in Education : Need-Based Grants, Gender Differences and School Choice." Thesis, Paris, EHESS, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019EHES0155.
Full textThis dissertation gathers evidence on three sources of education inequalities across different education levels (preschool, primary, secondary, and higher education) in the context of Spain. It revolves around the causal effects of large-scale educational policies on the efficiency and equity of educational systems.The first chapter focuses on the effects of financial aid for disadvantaged students in the context of higher education. National financial aid programs for disadvantaged students cover a large fraction of college students and represent a non-negligible component of the public budget. Using a reform in the Spanish need-based grant program, this paper tests the causal effect of receiving the same amount of grant under different intensities of academic requirements on student performance, degree completion and student dropout. I use administrative micro-data on the universe of applicants to the grant in a large university. Exploiting sharp discontinuities in the grant eligibility formula, I find strong positive effects of being eligible for a grant on student performance when combined with demanding academic requirements, while there are no effects on student dropout. Students improve their final exam attendance rate, their average GPA in final exams, and their probability of completing the degree. They also reduce the fraction of subjects that they have to retake. The second chapter centers on the gender differences in academic performance due to the testing-environment, in the context of primary and secondary education. However, little attention has been devoted to investigating how the organization of student testing may influence the relative performance of male and female students. This paper analyzes the gender gap in test scores that arises as a result of differential responses by boys and girls to the testing environment. To that end, we exploit a unique randomized intervention on the entire population of students in the 6th and 10th grades in the Region of Madrid (Spain). The intervention assigned schools to either internally or externally administered testing. We find that girls do worse than boys in exams that are externally administered, especially in male-dominated subjects. Additional survey evidence on stress, self-confidence, and effort suggests that lower relative female performance in externally administered tests results from a lower ability to cope with stressful situations as a result of less familiarity with the testing environment.The third chapter studies the relationship between school choice priorities and school segregation in the context of preschool education. This work aims at broadening the scope of market design questions to school choice by examining how government-determined school choice priorities affect families’ choices and pupil sorting across schools in the context of the Boston Mechanism. We use two large-scale school choice reforms in the school choice priority structure undertaken in the region of Madrid (Spain) as a source of variation. In particular, we exploit an inter-district school choice reform that widely expanded families’ choice set of schools. We combine an event study first difference across cohorts and a Difference-in-Difference design to identify the impact of the reforms. Using unique administrative data on parents’ applications to schools, this paper shows that families reacted to the reform exerting higher inter-district choice and applying to schools located further away from home than before the reform. We find distributional effects of the reform concluding that parents from the highest education levels and parents of non-immigrant students were those who reacted the most in absolute terms. We find a decrease in school segregation by parental education and an increase in school segregation by immigrant status
Niang, Mouhamadou Moustapha. "Differences in unemployment between males and females in France." Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014AIXM2020/document.
Full textThe thesis provides a novel analysis of the differences in unemployment between males and females, taking into account, in addition to the rate, other important aspects of unemployment that have welfare implications for both individuals and the society where they live. It consists of three contributive chapters.Chapter 2 proposes a measurement of the differences in unemployment between males and females based on an index by Shorrocks. The latter is estimated by quarter for France during the period 2003:1 to 2008:3 using three different methods: synthetic cohort method, Salant's method and a method using directly the interrupted durations. The first method uses the interrupted durations to obtain an estimate of the distribution of completed durations while the Salant method do the same but assume that the labour market is in a steady state. Chapter 3 builds from Chapter 2's results and proposes a purely empirical analysis of the gender gap in unemployment in France. It examines in addition to the gender differences in the unemployment rate, the gender differences in mean duration and distribution of durations. The chapter also provides a comparative analysis of different methods of regression-based decomposition. It finishes with an analysis of the reduction of the gender gap in unemployment in France between 2003 and 2008 Chapter 4 provides an analysis of the gender difference in the number of unemployment spells and the distribution of these spells across the labour force. The importance of the matter relates to the fact that a repetitive unemployment may cause lower paid work and unstable jobs and therefore lead to poverty and social exclusion
Studzińska, Anna. "Gender differences in perception of sexual harassment." Thesis, Toulouse 2, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015TOU20052/document.
Full textThis thesis presents a series of six studies which concentrate on the perception of sexual harassment (SH) and the perception of victims and perpetrators of SH. Numerous studies show that men can become victims of SH and suffer from SH (ex. Kearney et Rochlen, 2011; Waldo, Berdahl, et Fitzgerald, 1998), however the lay perceptions of SH seem to be far from the reality. I hypothesized that:1o. In social perception the suffering of male victims of SH is less severe than that of female victims 2A. The perpetrators whose victims are female are evaluated worse than those whose victims are male Due to the results obtained in Study 4, I suggested an alternative to hypothesis 2A (2B) namely, that the female perpetrators of SH are evaluated better. The results support the hypothesis that the perception of the victims and perpetrators of SH depends on their sex. Female victims are perceived as suffering more than the male victims. Male perpetrators are seen as less agentic and less respectable than female perpetrators and deserving a higher punishment. When participant's anger mediates the relationship between the victim’s sex and the perception of the perpetrator, the perpetrator of SH on a woman is perceived as guiltier, deserving a higher punishment and as being less of a moral agent
Załączona rozprawa przedstawia serię badań dotyczących społecznej percepcji molestowania seksualnego (MS), percepcji cierpienia ofiar molestowania oraz percepcji sprawców molestowania. MS to każde niepożądane zachowanie werbalne lub niewerbalne odnoszące się do seksualności lub płci adresata, które skutkuje naruszeniem jej godności, poprzez tworzenie „onieśmielającej, wrogiej, poniżającej, upokarzającej lub agresywnej atmosfery” (Śledzińska-Simon, 2011). W przedstawionych badaniach odwołuję się do typologii MS zaproponowanej przez Fitzgerald, Gelfand i Drasgow (1995), a następnie poszerzonej przez Waldo, Berdahl i Fitzgerald (1998). W typologii tej wyróżniono trzy rodzajów MS są to: 1. przymus seksualny (sexual coercion) – grożenie ofierze lub zapewnianie ofiary, że jeśli zgodzi się na kontakt seksualny, otrzyma pewne przywileje (np. awans, lepszą ocenę na egzaminie) lub uniknie negatywnych konsekwencji (np. zwolnienie z pracy, ocena niedostateczna) 2. niepożądane zainteresowanie seksualne (unwanted sexual attention) – częste dotykanie ofiary lub napastliwe próby stworzenia intymnego lub seksualnego związku z ofiarą 3. molestowanie z uwagi na przynależność do danej płci (gender harassment): 3a. obsceniczne komentarze (lewd comments) – na przykład: żarty odnoszące się do seksualności; obraźliwe komentarze na temat wyglądu lub życia seksualnego; pokazywanie pornograficznych zdjęć 3b. wymuszanie zachowań zgodnych ze stereotypową rolą płciową (enforcement of gender role) – na przykład: żarty z mężczyzny, który bierze zwolnienie w celu zajmowania się dzieckiem; komentarze skierowane do kobiety, że powinna robić sobie makijaż, żeby wyglądała bardziej kobieco 3c. negatywne komentarze dotyczące danej płci (negative gender related remarks) - na przykład: powiedzenie, że wszyscy mężczyźni myślą tylko o jednym; stwierdzenie, że kobiety nie nadają się do zarządzania

Resumo: O presente estudo teve por objetivos investigar se a terapêutica de isolamento dos acometidos pela tuberculose, no início do século XX, contribuiu para a estigmatização dos doentes; se o estigma relacionado a esta doença está presente atualmente; se há diferenças entre homens e mulheres para lidar com este estigma; e se há, diante das possíveis diferenças, repercussões distintas na condução e conclusão do tratamento. A metodologia utilizada compreendeu um estudo de caso e a aplicação de entrevistas com doentes de tuberculose. O estudo de caso foi realizado na cidade de São José dos Campos, a qual se tornou referência para o tratamento da tuberculose, na "era sanatorial", a partir da leitura e análise das publicações jornalísticas do início do século passado. As entrevistas foram realizadas com homens e mulheres que trataram da tuberculose no ambulatório de referência do município de Jacareí e do complexo hospitalar da UNICAMP. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que o isolamento prescrito por médicos no início do século XX como um dos recursos importantes para a cura da tuberculose contribuiu para a sobrecarga de alguns emblemas depreciativos atribuídos aos doentes, intensificando o estigma da doença. A análise sugere ainda que homens e mulheres, pelo distinto processo de socialização, lidam diferentemente com a doença, o que reflete desde o modo como buscam por um tratamento até como o conduzem. Enquanto os homens apresentam a debilitação física como queixa primordial no adoecimento por tuberculose, para as mulheres o estigma apresenta-se como a primeira e mais constante queixa, perdurando mesmo após a conclusão do tratamento.
Abstract: This survey aimed to investigate if the isolation therapy of those affected by tb in the beginning of the 20th century contributed to the stigmatization of patients, if the stigma of this illness is still present, if there are differences between men and women in dealing with this stigma, and if there are, in front of possible differences,distinct repercussions in carrying on and concluding the tratment. The methodology used envolved survey of case and applying interviews with tb patients. The survey of case was developed in the city of Sao Jose dos Campos, which became a reference for tb treatment in the beginning of the last century, from the reading and analysis of news publications of that time. Interviews were taken with men and women who were treated of tb in the reference clinic in the city of Jacarei and in the medical facilities of UNICAMP (University of Campinas). The results achieved suggest that the isolation, prescribed by doctors in the beginning of the last century as one of the important resources to the cure of tb, contributed with the overcharge of some depreciating symbols attributed to tb patients intensifying the stigma of this illness.The analysis also suggests that men and women, due to distinct process of socialization, deal with the illness differently, which reflects from how they seek for treatment to how they carry it on.While men have as major complaint about being ill of tb phisical debility, with women the stigma is the first and most constant complaint, lasting even after treatment is concluded.

Full textMany political and legal discourses express today the fear that the equality principle would threaten the difference of sexes. Reforms such as the opening of marriage to same-sex couples, the fight against gender stereotypes or the facilitation of the sex reassignment procedure, generated strong reactions that offer vigorous resistance in order to maintain the difference of sexes in law. It is true that the equality principle has been constructed, throughout the 20thcentury, as an exigence of neutrality between the sexes, particularly through the statement of the non-discrimination principle. Therefore, the link between the equality principle and the difference of sexes has been built as a relation of opposition. However, such a political project comes up against the impossibility for the law to put an end to the difference of sexes. In fact, the law cannot depart from gender, for two main reasons: firstly, the law takes into account the difference of sexes in order to tackle inequalities; secondly, the law itself produces the difference of sexes, through the rules dealing with civil status and filiation. The relations between the equality principle and the difference of sexes appear here contradictory: on the one hand, the evolution of the conception of equality leads to admit the difference of sexes in order to deal with gender inequalities (relation of admission) whereas, on the other hand, the difference of sexes is excluded from an analysis in terms of equality, reinforcing the basis of gender inequalities (relation of exclusion)

Full textUnder the title «Another way of being in the educational relation. The investigation of the Italian self-reform movement of the school as an experience of personal transformation», this investigation account for a trip of exploration and self-exploration that following to Simons and Masschelein (2006), we might name as «educational or formative». It refers, therefore, to an inqury that comply with an experience in education, the Movement of Italian self-reform of the school, where the most important thing is the educational or formative dimension of the activity itself, or rather, my experience of personal transformation. The Movement of self-reform of the Italian school is a movement that is born as a symbolic and relational, political and pedagogic different setting to look differently at the school and to do politics in and with her. Often accompanied of the «gentile» adjective, the self-reform of the school defines the feminine initiative that already years ago had given rise to the Pedagogy of the sexual difference, characterized not only for the will to confront or to be opposed to the violence of the transformations imposed from the heights, but rather for the aptitude to struggle pacifically for another sense of the education that partly already exists. This way, the principal target of the research that has led to this experiencial movement or formative trip of exploration and self-exploration, has been to walk through, to estimate and to come closer narratively to the self-reform movement of the school and to the thought and the pedagogy of the sexual difference which shows another way of being in the educational relation. In order to achieve this, I have taken the figure of passage and passion (Larrosa, 2009) to shape my formative or educational experience, that is to say, to give account of what I have been going through (passion) in the transition or walk (passage), bringing it to the hand from a «narrative deepening» (Contreras, 2015).

Full textThe impact of sex and sexual hormones in the normal and pathological emotional processing has reached unique importance in the investigation of sexual dimorphism in prevalence, diagnostic features and therapeutics of psychiatric disorders. Depressive and anxiety disorders are not only more common in women compared to men, but they also seem to be influenced by the hormonal status of women at different stages of the reproductive cycle. At the same time, the sex of the subject and the level of sex hormones have been suggested to play a role in brain function in a variety of emotional and cognitive tasks. The recognition of facial expressions of basic emotions has been recognized not only as of extreme importance in social adjustment as there is also evidence of its relation to the development of psychiatric disorders. It has been shown that this task is influenced by the sex and hormonal status of subjects, however, the literature shows a gap in explanations about how these differences occur. In two experiments we sought a better understanding of how sex differences in facial expressions recognition of basic emotion (anger, disgust, fear, sadness, surprise, happiness and neutral) happens. In experiment 1, 33 male and 30 female healthy volunteers were tested for accuracy in the recognition of facial expressions, the type of error when performing this task as well as the emotion aroused during this recognition. In experiment 2, 24 healthy female volunteers were tested for accuracy in the recognition of facial expressions in 3 different phases of menstrual cycle, early follicular (days 1 to 5), periovulatory phase (days 12 to 14) and luteal phase (days 21 to 23), in a crossover study design. Volunteers were tested for blood levels of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone at the end of each experimental session in order to confirm cycle phase and look for possible correlations between hormones and processing of facial expressions. We used contrast analysis in the recognition of each basic emotion against the recognition of happiness. In experiment 1, anger and fear, in feminine faces, were more accurately recognized by women in comparison to men. No significant differences among sexes were found on the emotion aroused while viewing facial expressions. Experiment 2 showed that the recognition of the emotions disgust and sadness, in male faces, varied significantly during the menstrual cycle phases. Women in luteal phase showed greater accuracy in recognizing expressions of disgust than when in early follicular phase whereas the recognition of sadness were more accurate during periovulatory phase than during luteal phase. These results suggest that differences between men and women in the ability to recognize emotions are not related to the valence of the emotions aroused in the subjects during emotional processing. This study also showed that the role played by the menstrual cycle in the ability to recognize facial expressions points to this feature as an important factor implicated in sex differences in this task.

Se o dependente de álcool foi em tempos visto como desprovido de força de vontade para mudar, hoje, à luz da abordagem motivacional é imbuído de poder de escolha no que respeita ao percurso que tem pela frente. Desta forma, pretendeu-se oferecer uma explicação teórica com aplicação prática, do processo de modificação intencional de comportamentos, à luz do Modelo Transteórico de Mudança de Prochaska e DiClemente (1992). Nesta investigação procurou-se caracterizar os percursos individuais até ao momento do pedido de ajuda, avaliar o estágio de motivação aquando da entrada para tratamento e caracterizar a amostra quanto a diferenças de sexo. Pretendeu-se clarificar estes aspectos através da exploração dos obstáculos e factores facilitadores para a procura de tratamento, no sentido da preservação dos momentos chave para a mudança e com o intuito de potencializar a eficácia das intervenções. Para o efeito, procedeu-se à realização de uma investigação de índole mista, quantitativa com os instrumentos: Short-form Alcohol Depende Data (SADD), Readiness to Change Questionnaire (RCQ), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) e qualitativa com uma entrevista semi-estruturada, numa população de 52 utentes da Unidade de Alcoologia do Porto, 30 do sexo masculino e 22 do sexo feminino. De forma sucinta, os resultados obtidos apontam para a necessidade de não se desvincular o background dos utentes do momento do pedido de ajuda, reforçam a importância de se adequarem as estratégias de intervenção ao estádio motivacional dos sujeitos e salientam que o reconhecimento e consciência das diferenças entre os sexos, pode ser usado como uma ferramenta na maximização da eficácia das intervenções. Esta investigação aponta também para a necessidade de se estabelecer um contacto com os utentes e realizar intervenções de forma o mais direccionada e específica possível. Treating a substance abuse is intrinsically linked to a series of behaviors associated with motivation. In the past, the substance abuser was seen as someone with no ability to change its condition, now-a-days however; motivation plays an important role in the treatment for alcoholism and allows the patient to choose the path to follow during the treatment. Following the Prochaska and DiClement’s Transtheorectical Model (1992), we tried to provide a theoretical explanation for the intentional behavior change of the patient, which could be applied in the clinical practice. In this research we aimed to characterize the individual paths that the patients followed, until the search for help and the enrollment in a rehabilitation program. The motivation stage at the beginning of the treatment, as well as the sex differences, were assessed and characterized. A clarification of these aspects was sought by examining the obstacles and the facilitating factors in the search for a treatment, in an attempt to preserve the key moments for the motivational change and potentiate the efficacy of the interventions. A mist, quantitative and qualitative research was conducted. For the quantitative research the following instruments were used: Short-form Alcohol Depende Data (SADD), Readiness to Change Questionnaire (RCQ), Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) and for the qualitative research, a semi-structured interview to 52 patients from Unidade de Alcoologia do Porto, 30 males and 22 females. Briefly, the obtained results show that one should avoid separating the patients’ background from the moment when they search for help, reinforcing the need to shape the intervention strategies to the motivational stage of the subjects. It also points out that the sex differences can be used as a tool for the maximization of the treatment efficacy. This research also brings some evidence for the need to establish contact with the patients and to perform directed and specific interventions.

De forma sucinta, los resultados obtenidos apuntan la necesidad de no se desvincular del background de los usuarios en el momento de lo pedido de ayuda, refuerzan la importancia de la adecuación de las estrategias de intervención a lo estadio motivacional de los sujetos y salientan que el reconocimiento y la consciencia de las diferencias entre sexos puede ser utilizado como una herramienta en la maximización de la eficacia de las intervenciones. Esta investigación apunta también para la necesidad de establecer un contacto con los usuarios y realizar intervenciones de la forma más direccionada y específica posible.

Full textThe current social link mutation raises multiple issues about its impact on the subjectivity processes. Considering this we studied identity’s construction of children and teenagers, and in particular oedipal problematic and connected questions: identifications, oedipal promise and temporality. Using projective tests (drawings and « Pattenoire Test ») these processeswere investigated among 5-15 years old French children. Peer figure appeared in our results as a main identification reference and relationship with parents keeps archaic pre-oedipal nature. This horizontal link complicates the access to the difference between the generations and to the psychical temporality as well. Thus Oedipus complex « bug » troubles the development of the «transitional» capacity which gives access to the creativity. Thisphenomenon is especially evident at the teenage, when subject has now to seek for new arrangements to get out of the temporality suspended to the relationship with parents in the imaginary register

Full textBACKGROUND: Exposure to environmental factors and stress during the intrauterine period are associated with changes in the neurodevelopmental trajectory in a sex-dependent manner. Epigenetic mechanisms are involved in this association. OBJECTIVES: Analyze according to exposure to stress during pregnancy the impact of sex and DNA methylation alterations on umbilical cord blood in the anthropometric measurements of the neonate METHODS: A total of 94 pregnant women were recruited and questionnaires were used to measure stress exposure and risk factors during pregnancy. Umbilical cord blood collection followed a standardized protocol. In order to analyze the stress, the principal components analysis (PCA) of the exposure factors evaluated were: socioeconomic status, education, weight gain, pre-gravid body mass index, presence of psychiatric illness, and psychosocial stress during pregnancy. After the PCA we did group analysis by k-means. Methylation analyzes were performed using Illumina Infinium Human Methylation 450 (450K) BeadChip. The data were analyzed by the Minfi and ChAMP (Chip Analysis Methylation Pipeline) packages. From the differentially methylated positions (DMPs) was made analysis of enrichment of biological processes with the tool WebGestalt. To evaluate gender impact and methylation alterations in the neonatal anthropometric outcome we used multiple regression linear analysis models. RESULTS: The final cohort for the evaluation of stress was composed of 89 mother/newborn pairs, being 50 girls and 39 boys. The PCA showed that the first 3 components accounted for 60% of the variability of the sample. Being the first component (PC1) psychic stress, the second PC social stress and PC3 exposure to toxic. The biplot of the first two components suggested the separation of the mothers into two groups, confirmed by cluster analysis. Using the cutoff point of p-value < 0.01 and delta beta-value > 5%, we found 110 DMPs between the groups and restricting this value to p-value < 0.01 and delta beta-value > 10 % we found 13 DMPs. Using only children suitable for gestational age we did differential methylation analysis between genders. There were 426 DMPs found. None of the 13 DMPs found between the two groups belonged to the pool of DMPs between the sexes. In the multivariate linear regression model controlling for child sex and age of the mother we did not find any DMP associated with the anthropometric outcomes of the neonate. In group-stratified analysis the cg24702040 (MAP3K21), cg21550016 (PAX8) sites were statistically significant for abdominal perimeter and cg18706028 (CCKBR) and cg21550016 (PAX8) were statistically significant for head cephalic circumference for age. This study suggests that maternal stress independent of sex can affect fetal growth, mediated by epigenetic responses in genes related to stress response, negative regulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor signaling pathway, biogenesis of the synapse and apoptotic process

Full textLevinas1 first writings identify the "pure difference" with the "feminine". The "feminine" is not conceived as attribute of "the woman" but stands for what can't be represented and escapes de philosophical discourse trying always to reduce the feminine to it's "other". Until totality and infinity, the feminine describes the other above all else. Since otherwise than being or beyond essence this notion disappears in his philosophical writings, but is being rediscussed in his talmudic comments. However the feminine is haunting the following writings. In otherwise. . . The subject has feminine attributes, such as "vulnerability", "sensitivity", "haemorrhage" for the other. Sexual difference is certainly, on one hand, secondarized in levinas' writings, since sexual altemity is coming afterwards, "the human" standing prior to it, but on the other hand levinas shows clearly that the so-called "neutrality" of the subject is a lure : it (he) has always been masculine. By insisting that the subject identified as hostage refers to a subjectivity elder than knowledge and power, which conscience represses, he refers to an immemorial time delaying the subject continuously. The first part of my work focuses on the feminine in totality. . . , the time and the other, whereas the second part is centred on maternal subjectivity in otherwise. . . In the third part the immemorial is discussed as time destructuring the past/present/future triad. Guiding displacements in levinas' writings and suggesting punctual comparisons with several other thinkers (as blanchot, deleuze, guattari, lacan and lyotard), sexual difference reveals itself as keeping on resistance to binary opposition. The immemorial time of this difference testifies that it is not "the woman" who comes afterwards, but "the subject" haunted by identity and entity

Full textThis study narrates the path of transformation and learning that delving deeper into education as experience implies. It is a piece of narrative research that, from an autobiographical standpoint informed by phenomenology-hermeneutics and the thinking of sexual difference, seeks to go deeper into the life processes that are put into movement by the thinking of experience and its influence on the educational relationship. This research took place through the accompanying of the educational experience during the Master in Studies of Female Freedom at the Duoda Women’s Research Centre (academic year 2010- 2011), and my own experience as researcher and lecturer, together with the experience of my students, at the Faculty of Education in the Degrees of Pedagogy and Social Education (from the 2015-2116 academic year to the present day). It is, therefore, a choral weaving, one that seeks to pay attention to a singular catchment of the world of pedagogical experience and of its meanings (Gadamer, 1977) to make possible and rethink other ways of teaching and learning in the university formative process, made up of what I have called pedagogical stories of women, constructed on the basis of my field diaries, stories from students and lecturers, and material collected over the course of the research. I use the word story because it is more accurate, given that it includes happenings, subjects and contexts that are shared on journeys that took place, were lived and thought in a pedagogical key in the course of the classes. They are stories that speak of their/our lives, stories that are that “gateway through which a person goes into the world, and through which their experience of the world is interpreted and made personally meaningful” (Connelly & Clandinin, 2006, p. 477). The pedagogical stories that are narrated here invite us to think and look more deeply at the meaning of education and the educational relationships that sustain it and give meaning to it. They seek to relate the living and free character of some teaching practices and to go deeper into the study of education as experience, sexual difference as a source of knowledge and of learning, and, on how the thinking of experience becomes learning. In order to do this, the following is asked: What educational value does it have to think experience? What meaning does it have to consider experience as a source and as mediation for learning? How can experience be thought? Why do thinking of experience in the university and for what? The weaving together of these stories seeks to tell of the experience which brings in and out of focus places to transit thinking, showing other ways of being in educational relationship. Ways that are supported in key moments of the educational relationship (beginning, accompaniment and closure) and in qualities such as care, recognition, trust, the meaning of the body and the language that is spoken, the awareness of self and the reflection to accompany personal and shared processes of learning.

Full textBased on an action-research approach, this thesis focuses on how teachers consider and embrace the injunctions to educate their students to gender equality. The starting point of this work began in 2014 when teachers and researchers collectively analyzed youth albums exploited or to be exploited in classrooms. Schools experiments aimed to develop the children’s critical thinking on gender stereotypes conveyed by children's books were also carried out. By adopting a "little scientists" technique (commenting, sorting, use of analysis grids, use of statistics, ...), the children were asked to perform quantitative and qualitative research on their school albums in order to identify gendered representations, their expressions and consequences. The action-research process has revealed how teachers, by analyzing the progress of their students, transformed their own vision of education to gender equality and their professional practice in this regard

Y la segunda se refiere a los cambios en el comportamiento de los esposos debido a un cambio de contexto, como un aumento en el riesgo de disolución de la pareja. Por consiguiente, analiza las implicaciones de estos dos conceptos en cada una de estas variables económicas. La tesis se utiliza una serie de grandes conjuntos de datos longitudinales de diferentes países (p.e. PSID, GSOEP, PHCE, Living in Ireland Survey) y estratégias econométricas.

Full textIn our thesis we suggest a journey inside the works of Pascal Quignard. We bring to the fore the difficulties, for an academic critic, to build a reading that is not a simple paraphrase of what Quignard writes. The writer actually comments what he writes and give himself angles to everything he publishes. Our reading of Quignard is not an erudite approch of his works, it is willing to show some effects produced by the texts. In the first part, we take an interest in the articulation between writing and suffering. To write is presented as a survival gesture that allows a metamorphosis of the writer’s life. We show how moments lived by the author are constantly take up again in his texts and how they structure the construction of the works. In the second part, we try to grasp the cosmogony that Quignard creates, he describes the laws of life that conditions our relationship to life and sexuality. Sexual difference is presented as an absolute that cuts humanity in two. Men and women are fundamentally different according to Quignard, he devotes many pages to explain the nature of this difference. Finally, we try to understand the status of love in the works of Quignard, love appears to be a fusion that allows individuals to exceed their own limits. Love is a way to feel again antenatal sensations; the mother, loved and hated, is a key figure in the works of Pascal Quignard

This study had as general goal investigate the perception of partner s support and the impact of the pain in the relationship as a couple of patients suffering of chronic lower back pain, of both gender, in ambulatory treatment in a big public hospital of São Paulo city. The study was made with 50 patients, where 25 were men and 25 were women, aged 35 to 65 years. The main used instruments were: social-demographic questionnaire, visual analogical scale of pain intensity, medical Outcomes study 36- item short form-health survey and semi directed interviews. The results demonstrated that all the participants of the study had the quality of their lives harmed, and that women showed intensity pain levels considered severe, whereas men obtained intensity pain levels considered moderate. 70% percent of the sample mentioned a negative impact on their sexual relations, due to their functional limitation and intensity of the pain, while the rest mentioned a marital adjustment when facing the symptoms of the pain. 86% of the sample mentioned perceiving their partners as supportive, being the helpful behavior considered the main way of support. The analysis of the results showed that the participants that had received partner s support, obtained better levels in the control of Vitality and Mental Health, when compared to the ones that had had no support. The conclusion of the results indicated that the chronic lower back pain causes a negative impact in the couple s relationship and that the partners support can work as a protection factor for depressive and anxiety symptoms, being this an important aspect to be considered in the health process of individual with chronic pain and in the planning of therapeutic procedures
Este estudo teve como objetivo geral investigar a percepção de apoio conjugal e o impacto da dor no relacionamento de casal de pacientes portadores de dor lombar crônica, de ambos os gêneros, em tratamento ambulatorial em um hospital de grande porte da rede pública da cidade de São Paulo. O trabalho foi realizado com 50 pacientes, sendo 25 homens e 25 mulheres, com faixa etária entre 35 e 65 anos. Os principais instrumentos utilizados foram: Questionário Sócio-demográfico, Escala VAS de intensidade da dor, Questionário de Qualidade de Vida SF 36 e Entrevista Semi-dirigida. Os resultados demonstraram que todos os participantes do estudo obtiveram qualidade de vida prejudicada, sendo que as mulheres apresentaram intensidade de dor considerada severa, enquanto os homens obtiveram intensidade de dor moderada. 70% da amostra relataram impacto negativo no relacionamento sexual, em decorrência da limitação funcional e gravidade da dor, enquanto que o restante referiu um reajustamento conjugal frente aos sintomas da dor. 86% da amostra relataram que percebem seus cônjuges como apoiadores, sendo que o comportamento solícito foi considerado o principal meio de apoio. A análise dos resultados demonstrou que os participantes que receberam apoio do cônjuge, obtiveram melhores índices nos domínios Vitalidade e Saúde Mental, quando comparados com aqueles que não receberam apoio. A conclusão dos resultados indicou que a dor lombar crônica causa impacto negativo no relacionamento de casal e o apoio conjugal pode funcionar como fator de proteção para sintomas depressivos e de ansiedade, sendo este um aspecto importante a ser considerado no processo da saúde dos indivíduos com dor crônica e no planejamento de condutas terapêuticas

Full textRecent researches have highlighted the role of categorization and social comparison process in understanding the gender differences and similarities at the level of self-concept. This thesis proposes a methodological and theoretical extension of these works to verify their soundness and assess their possible implications for the development of social psychology of personality. Thus, we first show that there are significant relations between several instruments for the measure self-concept, in confirming the validity of these instruments (study 1). The hypothesis of an interaction “gender X culture” on self-concept is then examined in a study comparing French and Korean students. As expected, the results show that gender differences on self are, no matter what self-concept measures are used, bigger in France than in South Korea. Then the studies 3, 4, and 5 seek to ascertain whether such manifestations of the malleability of the self-concept in different contexts may also be obtained by the measure of the personality traits. It is shown that there are gender stereotypes on certain personality traits of the five-factor model (Study 3 Study 4) and that the self-stereotyping process proposed by the self-categorization theory (Turner, 1987) seems to actually influence the manifestation of personality traits. Studies 4 and 5, using the original experimental paradigms, help to highlight the conditions under which individuals will "change" their personality according to the situation where they find themselves. These results suggest that there exist certain personality traits stable and they do not change according to the situation but there also exist certain traits that vary significantly in accordance with social interaction and self-categorization process

Full textThis research builds and discusses the artistic career of Silvia Gubern, Àngels Ribé and Eulàlia (Grau), mainly in the stage called "conceptual practices" from documentary sources and introducing the voice of the artists and biographic facts. These three monographs also incorporate critical reception and evaluation of the press and the art critics. The author points out the importance of reading those careers taking into account the perspective of the Italian and Spanish feminism of sexual difference. Beyond the "neutral" interpretive framework that has been used to classify them as conceptual artists in the modernist history of catalan avantgarde art, this thesis lays the foundation for reading women genealogies of creativity oriented by the female sexuation of knowledge and to explore women's freedom in history. Thus, conceptualism would not be a single framework to assess their contribution to the history of art. It is defined as a living moment in a much longer and complex creative itinerary, a stage in which many issues intersect, focusing on some core aspects such as sexual politics in the history of women in the 60s and 70s in Catalonia (Spain).

Full textIn the context of changes of general practice (uneven distribution of young general practitioners (GPs) across the country, strong feminisation), this thesis focuses on the determinants of the outpatient care supply of general practitioners. Using different micro-econometric analyses, firstly we want to understand the impact of feminization on the incomes of general practitioners and specifically on their private practice behaviours in terms of volume of care provided but also composition of the activity (consultations, home visits). Secondly, we study the determinants of the practice location choice within the region and we identify the levers that could improve the distribution of GPs in the area. Our results confirm that female GPs provide fewer services than male GPs and they also have a different composition of private practice activity. However, we show that male and female GPs adopt a similar practice location choice. Factors characterizing the place of installation as the characteristics associated with the supply of care, the demand for care, or equipment influence the practice location choice

Full textStudies examining potential links between depressive symptoms and dropout have yielded inconsistent results. These inconsistencies could be explained by potential moderating effects of key individual characteristics, such as gender or age. This study has two main objectives: 1) to measure the association between depressive symptoms as measured at different grades during high school and dropout, and 2) to examine the possible impact of gender as a moderator variable. We used self-reported data to assess depressive symptoms in 7th, 8th and 9th grade and official administrative data to determine dropout status among a cohort of 6,272 high-school students. Results indicate that after controlling for a variety of potentially confounding variables, the association between depression and dropout was no longer significant. Furthermore, the analysis indicate that gender does not play a moderating role, meaning that there is no link between depression and dropping out among girls, nor boys. These results suggest that the conflicting results observed in the literature may reflect a difference in the variety and, more importantly, the number of variables used to control for confounding effect. Furthermore, the results reiterate the importance of known dropout risk factors for dropout and suggest that preventive interventions focusing on depressive symptoms should be part of larger programs also aiming at other factors more closely related to school dropout.

Full textIn couples, conflict is often viewed negatively and affecting the quality of the relationship and children's adjustment. On the other hand, not all conflicts are negative. Indeed, in a context where parents use positive resolution strategies, conflicts can become a learning environment for young children and allow them to reuse these models to be more socially competent. This study aims to evaluate the relationship between marital conflict resolution strategies and the social competence of preschool children depending on the sex of the parent and the child's sex. Data were collected from 160 families with a child aged between 4 and 6 years old. This is a transversal research design. Results show marital conflict resolution strategies are marginally related to the level of social competence of the children, but only for the fathers. In addition, children's gender marginally moderate this relation, boys being more socially competent when more exposed to a high ratio of positive resolution strategies from their fathers. A significant difference was observed between boys and girls as to their level of social competence, girls being more competent socially than boys.

Full textWork-related upper limb musculoskeletal disorders represent a public health challenge in the material handling industry. In addition to affecting the worker's quality of life, these injuries result in lost work time and increased production costs. While we have epidemiological evidence that more female material handlers suffer from shoulder pain than men, the literature is lacking biomechanical indicators that explain the origin of this difference. The general objective of this thesis was to improve the evaluation of upper limb handling techniques, with three specific objectives~: (1) to develop synthetic kinematic, electromyographic and musculoskeletal indicators to evaluate and differentiate upper limb handling techniques~; (2) to develop an open source biomechanical analysis software~; and (3) to use the developed indicators and software to describe the biomechanical differences between female and male workers. We collected kinematics, electromyography and force data on 30 women and 30 men performing a handling task that consisted in lifting a 6 and 12~kg box from hip to eye level. From these data, we developed synthetic indicators~: a kinematic indicator useful to identify poor handling techniques and more generally joint functions~; two electromyographic indicators to quantify the amount of muscle activation and muscle co-contraction~; and two musculoskeletal indicators to estimate total muscle stress and stress applied to the glenohumeral joint. We have implemented these indicators with pyomeca, our open-source biomechanical analysis software. Available to the biomechanical community, pyomeca provide basic operations useful in the daily workflow of a biomechanical researcher, but also more advanced biomechanical routines geared towards rigid body mechanics and signal processing. pyomeca stands from existing biomechanical software because it is an open-source, user-friendly, specialized and secure solution. We then applied our synthetic indicators to describe the biomechanical differences between the women and men participating in our experiment. The kinematic indicator showed that women used a poor handling technique, with a higher glenohumeral contribution, a low contribution from the lower limbs and a box further away from the trunk. These differences in technique affected the electromyographic and musculoskeletal indicators, with twice as much muscle activation compared to men and less glenohumeral stability. These results may contribute to the sex difference in the prevalence of upper limb musculoskeletal disorders. This thesis has enabled the development of biomechanical indicators and an open-source software that could allow ergonomists to assess the upper limb exposure during a dynamic lifting task. Applied to a specific population, these indicators argue for a careful consideration of sex during ergonomics intervention, particularly during overhead work.

Full textGender differences are a presupposition that we often take for granted. Similarities, however, are presented as the particular traits of individuals. Often they are not perceived as an inherent human characteristic. But there is a relationship between similarity and difference. What fundamentally separates the similarities from the differences is the viewpoint of the observer: The importance accorded to the one or the other is not based on scientific and objectives criteria, but rather the observer's beliefs and assumptions. Scientists themselves are not immune to this bias, even though the differences are scientifically observable and measurable. The significance of differences is no more real than that of similarities which, nonetheless, are granted much less value, attention, and are less often studied, although they are measurable.

We selected 7 publications, through the descriptors: “Leadership of the coach”; “Sports Performance”; “Coach-Athlete Compatibility” and “Satisfaction Athlete” between 2010 and 2017. From this review, it was verified that the dimensions of transformal leadership are more associated to sports performance, leadership satisfaction and coach-athlete compatibility. it is noteworthy the scarce information about the gender differences. Therefore, this study seeks to understand if to exist an association between leadership styles, satisfaction, coach-athlete compatibility and sports performance in futsal athletes of both sexes. For this, a sample was examined for the convenience of 107 athletes from the National Futsal Division. Participants answered a sociodemographic and sports questionnaire; Multidimensional Scale of Leadership in Sport (EMLD); Coach-Athlete Compatibility Measure (MCTA); Satisfaction Questionnaire in Athletes (QSA). The importance of leadership styles for coach-athlete compatibility has been demonstrated, and for female athletes the demonstration of confidence/enthusiasm about concern to understand them as people and the personal aspects of the relationship are particularly important for income. At the level of satisfaction, it was verified that the item directed to the satisfaction with the leadership that more are associated with the leadership that more are associated with the compatibility coach-athlete and the income. Based on the results found in the present study, we believe that it is important that the training of coaches, in addition to aiming at the development of teaching and technical and tactical skills inherent to futsal, values relational skills, sensitizing to the different needs of athletes, as your gender.

Pretendeu-se também investigar diferenças de sexo e idade em termos de qualidade do relacionamento e memória autobiográfica do casal. Foram realizados dois estudos. No Estudo 1, 682 participantes (498 mulheres e 184 homens) recordaram o primeiro beijo com o atual (ou último) parceiro, e completaram o Memory Quality Questionnaire, a fim de o traduzir e validar para a população Portuguesa. O Estudo 2, foi constituído por uma amostra de 50 casais heterossexuais e consistiu numa fase individual e numa fase de interação. Na fase individual foram recolhidos dados sociodemográficos, juntamente com informações sobre a qualidade do relacionamento e sintomas psicopatológicos. Os participantes foram também convidados a recordar e avaliar duas memórias autobiográficas do seu relacionamento atual. Na fase de interação, cada casal foi convidado a recordar essas memórias em conjunto. As respostas foram registadas sob a forma de áudio e vídeo e, posteriormente, codificadas. Os resultados mostraram que a qualidade percebida do relacionamento amoroso está positivamente correlacionada com a qualidade da memória autobiográfica do casal.
The main aim of the present study was to investigate, for the first time, the relationship between the perceived quality of the romantic relationship and the couple’s autobiographical memory using a quantitative and a qualitative methodology. It was intended to also investigate sex and age differences in terms of quality of the relationship and the couple’s autobiographical memory. Two studies were conducted. In Study 1, 682 participants (498 women and 184 men) recalled their first kiss with their current (or last) partner, and completed the Memory Quality Questionnaire, in order to translate and validate this questionnaire to the Portuguese population. Study 2 comprised a sample of 50 heterosexual couples and consisted of an individual and an interaction phase. In the individual phase sociodemographic data were collected, along with information on the quality of the relationship and psychopathological symptoms. Participants were also asked to recall and evaluate two autobiographical memories of their current relationship. In the interaction phase, each couple was invited to remember these memories together. Responses were recorded in the form of audio and video and then coded. Results showed that the perceived quality of the romantic relationship is positively correlated with the quality of couple’s autobiographical memory.

Full textThe main aim of the present study is to relate, for the first time, the sexual and emotional sides of infidelity, that is characterized by any form of close physical or emotional involvement with another person while in a committed relationship (Brand et al., 2007) with promiscuity, which is typically defined by the search for the maximum sexual pleasure (Markey & Markey, 2007) or how easily and often someone falls in love (Jones, 2011). We also aim to investigate potential sex differences within both domains. Our research comprehends two studies: Study 1 served as base to Study 2, where 74 participants (30 males and 44 females) were asked to give examples of sexual and emotional infidelity, in order to develop a scale to assess infidelity in both domains. Study 2 gathered 369 participants (92 males and 277 females) to answer to an online questionnaire that collected information about infidelity and promiscuity, in addition to some sociodemographic questions. Results show that all domains are related, specifically sexual and emotional infidelity with sexual and emotional promiscuity.
O principal objetivo do estudo presente é relacionar, pela primeira vez, as vertentes sexual e emocional da infidelidade, que é caracterizada por qualquer forma de contato físico ou envolvimento emocional com outra pessoa enquanto se está num relacionamento (Brand, Markey, Mills & Hodges, 2007) com a promiscuidade, que é tipicamente definida pela máxima procura de prazer sexual (Markey & Markey, 2007) ou quão facilmente e frequente um indivíduo se apaixona (Jones, 2011). Um outro objetivo é investigar potenciais diferenças entre sexos dentro dos dois domínios. A pesquisa compreende dois estudos: o estudo 1 serviu como base para o estudo 2, onde a 74 participantes (30 homens e 44 mulheres) foi pedido que dessem exemplos de infidelidade emocional e sexual, com o objetivo de desenvolver uma escala que avalie a infidelidade nos seus dois domínios. O estudo 2 juntou 369 participantes (92 homens e 277 mulheres) para responderem a um questionário online que recolheu informações sobre infidelidade e promiscuidade, juntamente com informações sociodemográficas. Os resultados demonstraram que todas as componentes se encontram relacionadas, mais especificamente a infidelidade sexual e emocional com a promiscuidade sexual e emocional.

Full textSexuality is a fundamental component of the human being, experienced and expressed in a multiple of ways and influenced by a myriad of factors. Sexual satisfaction emerges as a significant component sexuality. The study of sexual satisfaction is hampered by theoretical and practical questions. In order to identify sexual and non-sexual correlates of sexual satisfaction, including social skills, four studies were developed. The first consisted of a narrative review of the literature on social skills; the second of a systematic review of studies on social skills assessment; the third on a theoretical approach to sexuality, from the perspective of sexual satisfaction; and the fourth in an empirical study aiming to characterize the sexual satisfaction of a sample of university students, analyzing its relationship with sexual and non-sexual variables and the differences between the sexes. Considering the conclusions of the first three studies, the fourth is a quantitative study, carried out with a sample of 200 university students from three institutions in the North of Portugal. They answered, in the classroom, to a Sociodemographic and Clinical Questionnaire, the NSSS - New Sexual Satisfaction Scale, the SSSS - Sexual Sensations Seeking Scale and IHS - Social Skills Inventory (adapted to Portugal). The results showed that the sample had high levels of sexual satisfaction, which was related with relational status, sexual relations frequency, the sexual sensations seeking and some social skills behavioral classes. It was also possible to identify statistically significant differences between the women and men in the relations found. The four studies are relevant contributes in the context of a better understanding (and, ultimately, promotion) of social skills and sexuality, of a growing group of the Portuguese population: university students.

Full textBenzo-a-pyrene (BaP) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) classified as carcinogenic to human, and is present throughout our environment. Metabolic activation of BaP leads to production of BaP-7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE), considered as its ultimate carcinogenic metabolite. BPDE can bind to DNA, forming BPDE-DNA adducts at the origin of BaP-induced DNA damage and carcinogenesis. BPDE-DNA adducts and DNA damages (DNA single-strand breaks [SSBs], chromosomal aberrations [CAs], sister chromatid exchanges [SCEs] and micronuclei [MNs]) are measured in human lymphocytes exposed to low BaP concentrations, taken from non-smoking healthy young subjects. Following BaP exposure, BPDE-DNA adduct levels, as well as CA and MN frequencies raise significantly, and then decrease to the higher BaP concentrations tested, suggesting metabolic enzyme saturation or induction of BaP phase II metabolism. As for SCEs test, a linear dose response curve is obtained, suggesting that production of additional DNA lesions requiring homologous recombination repair may occur. These lesions could be DNA breaks or oxidized DNA bases (8-OH-dG), as indicated by correlation analysis performed between our biomarkers. Additionally, when comparing the dose-response curves for men and women separately, some differences show up. Indeed, SCEs, CAs, and MNs are significantly increased in men at the lowest BaP concentration tested, while in women, this increase is present but not significant. Interindividual differences are also present and are more considerable for BPDE-DNA adducts, MNs and CAs, whereas they are very low for SCEs. Statistical analysis showed that four factors (BaP exposure level, BPDE-DNA adducts, CA frequency and number of MN per micronucleated cell) significantly explained up to 59 % of observed variability in SCE test, while no such factors could explain the observed variability in CA and MN test. Following analysis of mechanisms underlying the formation of early biomarkers, we suggest a modification of the Exposure-Disease Continuum of BaP. We propose that DNA breaks and oxidized DNA bases should be classified as biomarkers of biologically effective dose (part of the exposure biomarkers), as their presence are at origin of early biomarkers of genotoxicity (SCEs, CAs and MNs). On the other hand, CA and MN tests confirmed clastogenic properties of BaP, and highlighted aneugenic effects influencing mostly chromosome segregation during cell division. These aneugenic effects, linked to the progression step of carcinogenesis, could be of particular importance given that exposure to BaP and other PAHs (smoking, occupational exposure) are chronic and may last for decades. Understanding the mechanisms playing a role in early biomarkers formation, as well as the relations existing between them, can be largely applied in our environment to many known and emerging contaminants, thus contributing to characterize their mode of action.

Full textObjectives: Structural differences associated with alcohol use disorders (AUD) and cannabis use disorders (CUD) are inconsistent in the literature, and researchers have difficulty identifying whether structural sex differences (SDs) observed in AUD and CUD patients occur. In addition, the longitudinal relationship between alcohol and cannabis use during adolescence and brain development is unclear. The first objective is to characterize the structural differences between AUD or CUD patients and their controls and to compare these case-control differences with those observed in other psychiatric disorders. The second objective is to assess the structural SDs in AUD and CUD patients compared to their controls. The third objective is to assess the relationship between alcohol and cannabis use and brain development during adolescence over a five-year period. Methods: Meta-analyses were performed on large samples for alcohol (k = 7, N = 798) and cannabis (k = 7, N = 447) use disorders based on the ENIGMA-Addiction working group dataset that includes adolescents and adults to a) compare structural differences in AUD and CUD patients compared to controls to those reported in other psychiatric conditions, and b) evaluate SSD in AUD and CUD by evaluating interaction terms and by performing sex-stratified analyses. The Neuroventure dataset (N = 130), a cohort of 13 year-old adolescents followed one a five-year period, was used to evaluate how adolescent binge-drinking and cannabis use were associated with SSD in brain structures and cognitive performance. The results on these two datasets are not directly compared since they do not focus on the same population of interest. Results: Reduced volumes were observed in AUD and CUD with effect sizes in general similar to those reported in the other compared psychiatric disorders. Male- and female-specific and non-sex specific case-control differences were also observed in AUD and CUD. Finally, reduced subcortical volumes and cortical thickness were associated with drug- and sex-specific parameters through adolescence. Conclusion: Although no causal direction was evaluated in the three articles, these results contribute to a better understanding of the impact of alcohol and cannabis misuse on the SSD occurring in the adult and adolescent brain, notably in the hippocampus. The observed sex differences are important to avoid generalizing the substance use-related structural abnormalities to both sexes.

Full textThe creation of Facebook can change the way people interact, but we know little about the impact of Facebook on health and well-being. As of today, 90 % of adolescents are active on Facebook and most of them connect everyday. Adolescence is a critical period in childrens’ development and during this period they are particularly vulnerable to stress hormones. It is therefore important to understand factors that may cause an increase in stress hormones in adolescents. The goal of this Masters thesis was to determine the relation between Facebook utilization in adolescents and psychological and physiological markers of stress. In order to do so, we measured stress hormones in 88 adolescents (41 boys, 47 girls) aged between 12 and 17 years old. Adolescents where asked to fill out the Social Network Survey, a questionnaire measuring different factors related to Facebook utilization and the Child depression Inventory, measuring symptoms of depression. Results suggest that it is not the time spent on Facebook that is related to psychological and physiological stress but the nature of Facebook utilization. For adolescent girls, it is the number of Facebook friends that is associated with high levels of cortisol, whereas in adolescent boys it is the fact of exposing one-self on Facebook that is associated with high levels of cortisol. This study is the first to show an association between Facebook utilization and stress hormones in adolescents.
