Stromberger, Joanne. "The Constitutionality of Dress Code and Uniform Policies." Thesis, University of North Texas, 2005. https://digital.library.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metadc4725/.
Full textAbstract:
This dissertation proposes to delineate the criteria for determining the constitutionality of public school dress codes based on an examination of relevant case law. The study addresses the following underlying questions: (1) Do students have a constitutional right to freedom of choice regarding their personal dress and grooming in public schools? (2) If so, what is the origin of the right? (3) What justification does a school district need in order to intrude upon the right? (4) Does the extent to which there is a right, and that it is accorded support by the judiciary, depend on the student's age and grade level? (5) What do state statutes say about dress codes and uniforms? (6) Do state statutes comport with the circuit courts' rulings in the various jurisdictions? The first part of Chapter I examines the purpose of school uniforms as set forth in relevant educational literature and commentary. The second part of the chapter examines empirical evidence on the effects of dress codes and uniforms. Chapter II addresses the first three questions listed above concerning students' right to choice in personal dress, the origins of such a right, and the justification required for a school to intrude upon this right. Chapter III examines dress code rulings from the United States Courts of Appeals in order to ascertain patterns of judicial rationale and determine whether students' rights vary depending on age, grade level, or federal circuit court jurisdiction. Chapter IV examines existing state statutes with regard to dress codes and uniforms. Chapter V utilizes the legal principles that emerge from the research in Chapter III and draws from the survey of state statutes in Chapter IV to make a comparison of state statutes and circuit court rulings in each jurisdiction. If a state statute does not comport with federal law in its particular jurisdiction, modifications are suggested to bring the statute into line with relevant judicial rulings.

Full textAbstract:
This study highlights a number of different aspects regarding uniforms and dress codes in the United Kingdom (UK) and Sweden. The study comprises three parts: a quantitative comparison of GCSE pass rates for schools in the UK that do and do not have school uniforms, a qualitative survey study of Scottish High School pupils' perceptions about their uniform and a qualitative interview study of Swedish teachers, administrators and pupils about their school dress, rules regarding school dress and school uniforms.
Regarding whether uniforms improved academic results by comparing GCSE pass rates in the UK we were unable to find conclusive evidence to suggest that schools which had uniform policies performed significantly better than other schools.
Regarding Scottish pupils’ perceptions of their uniforms, pupils from lower-educated backgrounds were more likely to perceive that they were told off by teachers about not wearing the correct dress. When asked whether pupils felt more equal compared to their peers, those from lower-educated background were more likely to think that uniforms do not help to level out class difference compared to pupils from better educated backgrounds. Regarding bullying, even though uniforms existed at the school studied bullying due to what pupils wore to school still existed and pupils perceived that bullying due to other factors such as physical appearance also occurred.
Regarding the results from interviews with teachers and administrators in the Swedish town studied, most teachers took a fairly relaxed attitude towards pupils’ dress although the dress code of not wearing outdoor clothes in High Schools was policed quite strongly. Teachers saw the issue of female pupils dressing overtly sexually as the biggest problem and this was dealt with on an individual level rather than a class level.
High school pupils’ opinions of their dress code varied. Some hated the school rule that they were not allowed to wear outdoor clothes, whereas for others it was not seen as a big deal. A number of pupils thought that what you wore in class does not affect their learning outcomes. Very few pupils thought that introducing a uniform would be a good idea. Pupils at Sixth Form College had a more mature attitude towards their dress and were able to reflect back on their experiences from High School. They did not think that the issue of dress was a major issue in Sixth Form College however this did vary slightly between the three schools studied. Pupils at two of the schools perceived the dress code of the third school as being more formal, but this was due mainly to prejudice according to a number of pupils. The large majority of Sixth Form College students thought that introducing school uniform would be a bad idea and that bullying would not be eradicated because pupils can always pick on other attributes, not just clothing. However there were a couple of Sixth Form College that thought that introducing it would be a good way to reduce peer-pressure to buy the right clothes in High School.

We know how big is the universe of organizations and how many countless aspects within its many areas involves: accounting, investments, billing and payments, sales, purchasing and human relations. We live in a much more complex organizational environment than at the time of the development of Taylor and Fayol management theories. To meet all the demands that have been created over the years for this development, theories of organizations have incorporated knowledge from several other sciences, such as biology, psychology, sociology, among others. Therefore, several aspects that were previously not considered, began to be analyzed in organizations, such as the influence of the environment, people management, organizational culture and the identity and image of organizations, among many others. Within this last area, one of the aspects that - even implicitly - is striking, is the use of dress code as a tool of expression of the organizational identity values as well as the hierarchy and belonging, or not, the employee group. For each there is a dress code2, which expresses their values in the organizational identity, and it is up to each organization to impose, an implicit or explicit way, this to employees. The adequacy of them to this dress code enables the expression of their belonging to this organization, its organizational identity and position in the hierarchy. To understand the functions and objectives of the dress code, it is important to make a study of the history of clothing, especially women's, which allows us to understand the fashion and clothing as a visual language. Our clipping to the history of dress is part of capitalism in the West, when male attire, coming from the English bourgeoisie, was accepted as the standard for the corporate environment for both men and woman. This costume which parts and practices liberated the movements of the body began to express the values of bourgeois society, discretion and sobriety through dark and neutral colors. The female body, prevented by moral and having underestimated his intelligence, held the woman in corselets and in their homes, as a trophy representing success and virility of her husband. In the course of history, to enter this appearance environment "distinct", women have adopted male attire symbols such as blazers, shirts, shoulder pads and even ties, in the most possible sober colors, seeking to express the same masculine values present in the corporate environment. Our research analyzes this language in the corporate environment through female dress code, as a manifestation of organizational culture, support of individual and collective identity of the bodies in the work environment, represented in films of the last four decades. The considerations here guide the objective of this work: conduct a study that articulates political theory and anthropology, fashion and management, with the method the visual ethnography to understand how the corporate dress code, imposed or suggested, sculpts the female body in organizations, as well as, how it interacts with the identity of the organization, establishing a relationship which influences the question of power and hierarchy. These perspectives are grounded in theories in the field of management, sociology, and anthropology and illustrated in selected movie passages
Sabemos quão grande é o universo das organizações, e quantos incontáveis aspectos dentro das suas inúmeras áreas ele envolve: contabilidade, investimentos, cobrança e pagamentos, vendas, compras e relações humanas. Vivemos em um ambiente organizacional muito mais complexo do que na época do desenvolvimento das teorias da administração de Taylor e Fayol. Para atender todas as demandas que foram sendo criadas ao longo dos anos por esse desenvolvimento, as teorias das organizações incorporaram conhecimentos de diversas outras ciências, como biologia, psicologia, sociologia, entre outras. Como consequência, vários aspectos que anteriormente não eram considerados passaram a ser analisados nas organizações, como, por exemplo, a influência do ambiente, a gestão de pessoas, a cultura organizacional e a identidade e a imagem das organizações, entre tantos outros. Dentro desta última área, um dos aspectos que – ainda que implicitamente – chama a atenção é a utilização do dress code como ferramenta de expressão dos valores da identidade organizacional, bem como da hierarquia e do pertencimento, ou não, do funcionário ao grupo. Para cada organização existe um dress code1, que expressa seus valores presentes na identidade organizacional, e cabe a ela impô-lo, de maneira implícita ou explícita, aos funcionários. A adequação deles a esse dress code possibilita a expressão de seu pertencimento a essa organização, sua identidade organizacional e posição na hierarquia. Para entender as funções e os objetivos do dress code, é importante fazer um estudo da história da vestimenta, principalmente a feminina, que nos permite entender a moda e a indumentária como uma linguagem visual. Nosso recorte para a história da vestimenta parte do capitalismo no Ocidente, quando o traje masculino, vindo dos burgueses ingleses, foi aceito como padrão para o ambiente corporativo, passando a ser referência para os trajes femininos de trabalho. Esse traje de peças práticas e que liberavam os movimentos do corpo passou a expressar os valores da sociedade burguesa, de discrição e sobriedade, por meio de cores escuras e neutras. O corpo feminino, impedido pela moral burguesa e tendo sua inteligência subestimada, prendia a mulher nos corselets e em suas casas, como um troféu representando o sucesso e a virilidade de seu marido. No curso da história, para entrar nesse ambiente de aparência “distinta”, as mulheres adotaram símbolos do traje masculino, como blazers, camisas, ombreiras e até gravatas, buscando expressar os mesmos valores masculinos presentes no ambiente corporativo. Nossa pesquisa analisa essa linguagem no ambiente corporativo por meio do dress code feminino, como manifestação da cultura organizacional, suporte da identidade individual e coletiva dos corpos no ambiente laboral, representado em filmes das últimas quatro décadas. As considerações tecidas até aqui norteiam o objetivo deste trabalho: realizar um estudo que articula teoria política e antropologia, moda e administração, tendo como método a etnografia visual, para entender como o dress code corporativo, imposto ou sugerido, esculpe o corpo feminino nas organizações, bem como de que forma ele interage com a identidade da organização, estabelecendo uma relação que influencia a questão do poder e da hierarquia. Essas perspectivas estão fundamentadas em teorias no campo da administração, da sociologia e da antropologia e ilustradas em passagens de filmes selecionados

Full textAbstract:
Previous research has shown that separately and in some combinations internal and external variables (e.g., fashion consciousness, the weather), in addition to the demographic variables of the individual (e.g., gender, age), can affect dress choice. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between the variables within the Choice of Professional Dress system and businesswomen's choice of professional dress along the classic–innovative fashion continuum (e.g., whether the professional dress is considered by the dress adopter as more classic or more innovative).
A model was developed for this study to illustrate the relationships between multiple variables that are proposed to influence an individual's choice of professional dress. A survey questionnaire was created to investigate businesswomen's choice of professional dress along the classic–innovative fashion continuum in regards to variables within two of the internal subsystems, the demographic subsystem, and the two external subsystems of the Choice of Professional Dress system. Data was collected via an online survey managed by a marketing research company. Participants were predominately married, Caucasian, businesswomen between 30 and 40 years old who held primarily occupations such as office and administrative support or management and financial operations. Multiple regression analyses and ANOVA were employed to test the relationships between the Choice of Professional Dress variables and businesswomen's selection of professional dress for work, as proposed in five main hypotheses.
Results of the multiple regression analysis and ANOVA indicated significant relationships between businesswomen's choice of professional dress along the classic–innovative fashion continuum and demographics (i.e., age, education), as well as internal variables (i.e., fashion consciousness, professional image/role, comfort, appearance labor, availability of professional dress) and external variables (i.e., company culture, company dress policies, profession). These results contribute to academia by providing a deeper and richer understanding of businesswomen's professional dress choice as well as the placement of these choices by businesswomen on the Fashion Continuum. Based on the findings, academic and practical suggestions as well as recommendations for future research were provided.Ph. D.

Full textAbstract:
Schools that implement a school uniform policy are on the rise (Musu-Gillette, Zhang, Wang, Zhang & Oudekerk, 2017). About 74% of these schools have a high population of low socioeconomic status students (Musu-Gillette et al., 2017) with about 75% or more qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The purpose of this study was to examine any relationships between students' perceptions of the effects of school uniforms and student socioeconomic status. In a charter school, a survey was completed by students to gather perception information and a separate survey by parents to gather socioeconomic status information. Hypotheses were tested using descriptive statistics and multiple regression models. Data were gathered from 184 students in grades 3 through 8. Examining individual survey items revealed older students were more likely to report that school uniforms help to reduce bullying and teasing. Another statistically significant difference was that some students of high socioeconomic status reported that uniforms help reduce arguments with parents about clothing (t(182) = 2.66, p<.01). Student responses on 10 survey items were grouped into one factor called School Climate, reflecting student perceptions on how uniforms affect the school's climate. Analyses revealed no significant relationships between the School Climate factor and socioeconomic status. However, Hispanic students reported a significantly more positive response overall than non-Hispanic students. These findings suggest students of various socioeconomic status perceive school uniforms similarly, but older students could be more likely to associate uniforms with a reduction in bullying. More research needs to be done in charter schools as little research has been done on school uniforms in charter schools, and among Hispanic students because the participation of Hispanic students was relatively low.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract My aim for this paper is to analyse the character Jeeves' obsession with perfect clothing in P. G. Wodehouse's The Inimitable Jeeves (1923). My method has been to study the historical context of the British aristocracy at the time of the first publication of the book in 1923, as well as the previous four decades during which the author grew up and decisive changes in the British class society took place. This paper studies sources on the significance of clothing in general, and examines its importance at the time in particular. For my analysis I have borrowed elements from new historicism. The norms, traditions and values of the aristocracy lost in importance during this time, and the aristocracy was divided into individuals who were willing to adopt to these changes and others who fought to defy them. My conclusion is that Jeeves considers the strict dress codes to be an important symbol of the old aristocratic values that he has to defend, in order to legitimize his own position, as he is profoundly devoted to his calling of being a first class valet faithful to the old traditions. Wooster, then, acts as Jeeves' opponent on the matter as he embodies the part of the aristocracy willing to embrace the changes instead.

In today's workplace there are many reasons why businesses are encouraging their workforce to dress in a more casual manner. Personnel within the workforce who dress casually report improvements ranging from morale to customer relations after the implementation of more relaxed dress codes. It will also be necessary to consider whether or not business casual dress facilitates the tearing down of social and communication barriers.

A presente dissertação traz uma pesquisa acerca da moral evangélica que contempla o vestuário feminino como um importante elemento de distinção social. A partir da etnografia realizada em igrejas evangélicas na região metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro, procurei observar de que forma as subjetividades se manifestam nos discursos e como experiências religiosas e culturais operam nos distintos modos de vestir-se, performar-se e julgar o belo. Disso resulta que, entre o juízo de gosto e as práticas do vestir, há operações de agenciamento em que as mulheres investem na construção de uma identidade visual personalizada sem contrapor a moral evangélica, mas também evidenciando as múltiplas formas sobre como essas normas são incorporadas. Neste sentido, o diálogo entre os mecanismos de distinção e as relações entre performatividade e materialidade constroem uma ética corporal e comunal, contribuindo para o entendimento da regulação e inscrição desses corpos femininos, portadores de significados sociais.
The present work brings a research about the gospel morality, which includes women s clothing as an important element of social distinction. From the ethnography in evangelical churches in the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro, I tried watching how the subjectivities are manifested in speeches and how religious and cultural experiences operating in distinct ways of dress up perform and judge the beautiful. It follows that between the judgement of taste and practices of dressing there are agency operations where women invest in constructing a personalized visual identity without opposing the evangelical morality, but also showing the multiple ways on how these norms are incorporated. In this sense, the dialogue between distinction mechanisms and the relations between performativity and materiality build a corporal and communal ethics, contributing to the understanding of the regulation and registration of these female bodies carrying social meanings.

Full textAbstract:
People use others' dress to make assumptions, including how they believe the wearer will behave. Observers then adjust their behavior in response to the anticipated behavior of the wearer. Physician or nurse dress affects the degree to which patients perceive the medical professional as confident, experienced, competent, mature, trustworthy, and professional. Dietitian dress has not been studied. Our purpose was to identify 1) the current level of formality of dress of registered dietitians (RD), 2) characteristics of dress codes, 3) the effect of RD dress on patient/client perceptions of professional traits, and 4) the level of formality at which an RD is perceived as being most professional. Phase I Respondents were randomly selected from the American Hospital Association database and the national WIC directory. A total of 972 managers (449 WIC and 523 hospital nutrition services) completed a survey about their facility's dress code policy for RDs, and how the facility's dietitians dress for work. Data showed that at most WIC clinics dietitians dress in Semi-Casual (khaki pants/collared knit top) attire while most hospitals dietitians dress in Business Casual II (dress slacks/knit shirt) attire. Over half of all managers surveyed felt that dietitian dress was important and a priority. Phase II Respondents were patients/clients of a hospital or WIC clinic in Illinois, Virginia, or Utah. Respondents gave demographic information and rated pictures of a dietitian in nine sets of clothing on eight characteristics: empathetic, competent, approachable, credible, organized, effective, professional, and confident. Respondents identified the dietitian with whom they would most and least prefer to have nutritional counseling. A total of 582 surveys were collected. These data showed that WIC participants and hospital patients most preferred the dietitian to dress in Business Casual (dress slacks/collared dress shirt) with a lab coat; this attire also received the most positive/desirable Professional Characteristic Scores. All respondents least preferred the dietitian dressed in Casual (jeans/knit shirt) attire; this attire received the least positive/desirable Professional Characteristic Scores. Only 1.1% of WIC and 8.1% of hospital dietitians regularly wear dress slacks, a collared shirt, and a lab coat, the patients'/clients' most preferred dress for dietitians.

Full textAbstract:
CNPqO PMV (Voto Médio Estimado) é um índice que pretende prever a sensação térmica das pessoas expostas a um mesmo ambiente. Entretanto, existem discrepâncias entre o modelo do PMV e as respostas de sensação térmica obtidas em estudos de campo efetuados para algumas populações. Um dos componentes para o cálculo do PMV é o isolamento térmico das vestimentas (Icl), que se utiliza da temperatura de superfície da vestimenta (tcl), que pode ser um fator que contribui para estas discrepâncias. Assim, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo apresentar um novo modelo de predição térmica minimizando as imprecisões das trocas térmicas pela correta determinação do tcl, utilizando-se do método de Newton. A coleta de dados contou com um grupo de soldadores, um grupo de trabalhadores de escritório desempenhando atividades sedentárias e um grupo de militares do exército português. Com a coleta de variáveis ambientais e pessoais no Brasil e em Portugal, esta pesquisa desenvolveu o Snovo1, por meio de um valor de tcl sem resíduos gerado pelo método de Newton e substituído nas parcelas de convecção e radiação de perda de calor e o Snovo2, mediante regressão múltipla entre os votos de sensação térmica coletados em estudo de campo, a taxa metabólica e os mecanismos de troca de calor. Depois do confronto entre a sensação térmica real e os valores de PMV calculados, para todos os grupos, os resultados encontrados com o Snovo1 e Snovo2 sempre foram melhores que os resultados encontrados com o PMV original de Fanger. O melhor resultado obtido nesta pesquisa foi com o grupo de militares, onde o Snovo2 apresentou uma melhoria de aproximadamente 46% em relação ao PMV original. Esta pesquisa comprovou que a temperatura superficial da vestimenta é uma variável de influência no modelo do PMV e minimizar imprecisões em sua obtenção diminui as discrepâncias entre os votos de sensação térmica e o PMV.
The PMV (Predicted Mean Vote) is an index which aims to predict the thermal sensation of people exposed to the same environment. However, there are discrepancies between the PMV model and thermal sensation responses obtained in field studies for some populations. One of the components for the calculation of PMV is the clothing insulation (Icl), which uses the clothing surface temperature (tcl), which can be a factor which contributes towards these discrepancies. Therefore, the aim of this research was to show the tcl influence on the PMV index. Thus, this research aimed to present a new thermal prediction model minimizing inaccuracies of thermal exchanges through the correct determination of tcl, by using Newton's method. Data collection featured a group of welders, a group of office workers performing sedentary activities and a group of Portuguese Army Military. Having collected environmental and personal variables in Brazil and Portugal, this research developed the Snew1, through a value of tcl without residues generated by Newton’s Method and replaced in convection and radiation heat loss equations and Snew2, through multiple regression between thermal sensation votes collected in field study, the metabolic rate and the mechanisms of heat exchange. After confrontation between the real thermal sensation and the calculated PMV values, for all groups, the results found with the Snew1 and Snew2 were always better than the results found with the Fanger’s Original PMV. The best result obtained in this research was with the military group, where the Snew2 presented an improvement about 46% over the original PMV. This search proved that the clothing surface temperature is a variable that influences the PMV model and minimizing inaccuracies in its obtaining decreases discrepancies between thermal sensation votes and PMV.

Full textAbstract:
One of the many attempts to solve problems that plague America's schools is the implementation of uniform dress code policies. Those who favor uniforms contend that uniforms will increase attendance, enhance academic achievement, and improve classroom environment. Prior research studies ( Behling, 1991; Hughes, 1996; and Hoffler-Riddick, 1998) on the effects of mandatory school uniforms have been inconclusive in their findings. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of mandatory uniform dress codes on student attendance, student achievement, and teachers' perceptions of classroom environment in two middle schools. The dependent variables were student attendance, student achievement, and teachers' perceptions of classroom environment. The independent variables were gender, race/ethnicity and time/years of teaching experience. Descriptive statistics and Analyses of Variance were used to analyze the data. Repeated Measures Analyses of Variance was used to analyze the attendance data in School A for three consecutive years. Analyses of Variance was used to measure the attendance and achievement data in School B for two consecutive years. A self-report questionnaire was designed to measure teachers' perceptions of the impact of uniforms on four domains of classroom environment: student attendance, student behavior, student achievement, and students' self-image. Three-way Analysis of Variance was used to analyze the data collected from the questionnaire.
The results of this study determined that there were no statistically significant differences in overall student attendance or achievement in School A. There were improvements in student achievement in School B after the change in dress to school uniforms. There were inconsistent differences between race/ethnicity and gender with respect to attendance after uniform implementation in schools A and B. Absences increased in School A after the second year with uniforms. Student achievement improved for students in School B, but showed no change in School A. Based on the results of the Uniform Survey administered to teachers in both schools, the perception of classroom environment after uniforms was generally positive. Teachers overwhelmingly supported the uniform policy, but they were inconsistent in their opinions of the overall impact on classroom environment. Teachers in School A felt that student achievement and student self-image improved after the implementation of school uniforms, but they saw no improvements in student attendance or behavior. Teachers in School B felt that student attendance declined after the first year of uniform implementation; however, they felt that there were improvements in student behavior, student achievement, and student self-image. Future research should examine the impact of mandatory uniform dress codes on school climate, students' self-esteem, and the perceptions of parents, students and members of the community.Ed. D.

Full textAbstract:
The study focused on the role of members of the School Management Team (SMT) regarding
the manner in which they implement the policy on mandatory school uniform in Swaziland
schools.
The main question guiding the study was:
To what extent is the learners’ right to human dignity protected when teachers enforce
the wearing of compulsory school uniforms in Swaziland schools?
A qualitative case study approach was employed with empirical data collected using
interviews with the SMT members of three schools in the Manzini and Lubombo regions of
the Kingdom of Swaziland, as well as an analysis of each of the school official documents.
The interviews and the analysis of the documents were aimed at determining the
compliance of each school‘s strategy with the Constitution of the Kingdom of Swaziland, and
all international conventions regarding the protection of children’s right to human dignity in
schools.
Data was analysed in accordance with acceptable procedures for processing the
qualitative data. The researcher’s conclusion based on the data gathered and from the body of
literature consulted, presented evidence that suggests that the rights of learners to human
dignity is not well-protected in the three schools that participated in the study. Poor
learners continue to suffer the humiliation of being undressed of clothing such as jerseys that
they wear to school because it is not the prescribed school uniform and is unacceptable. Some
suffer corporal punishment because their parents cannot afford to buy them the full prescribed
school uniform. Poverty remains a serious challenge to implementing the mandatory school
uniform policy.Dissertation (MEd)--University of Pretoria, 2014.

Full textAbstract:
Teckenspråkstolkar hanterar till vardags olika typer av tolkuppdrag, till exempel möten på arbetsplatser, offentliga uppdrag på scen, i utbildningssammanhang eller hos tandläkaren. Syftet är alltid detsamma, nämligen att möjliggöra kommunikation mellan personer som inte delar samma språk. Situationernavarierar dock och kan äga rum i alla tänkbara kontexter i livet, från vaggan till graven. Det ingår i tolkensprofession att anpassa sig till situationen. Det handlar både om en språklig och kulturell anpassning och en anpassning av sitt yttre för att inte vara ett störningsmoment för de närvarande parterna under uppdraget. Kläderna är en viktig del inom tolkning eftersom teckenspråket är visuellt baserat och mottagaren uppfattar språket via synen. Den här studien fokuserar på yrkesverksamma teckenspråkstolkars uppfattning om klädkoden inom professionen samt hur klädvalet anpassas efter uppdragen. I uppsatsen genomfördes sju kvalitativa forskningsintervjuer för detta ändamål. Analysen visar att det förekommer anpassningar ifråga om vad tolkar väljer att ta på sig beroende på vilken typ av uppdrag som står på agendan. Det kan handla både om att vara praktiskt klädd inför uppdrag och att signalera professionalitet till omgivningen. Klädkoden inom tolkkåren är en oskriven regel som alla känner till och följer, men som inte är specifikt uttalad när man väl är klar med utbildningen. Samtidigt uppger flera tolkar om att de inom ramen för den rådande klädkoden ändå på kreativa sätt kan variera sin klädsel och markera sin personliga identitet.Sign language interpreters handle different types of interpreting assignments with regards to work-related situations such as meetings at workplaces, public assignments on stage, in educational contexts, or at the dentist. The purpose is always the same, to enable communication between people who do not share a language. Situations, however, vary greatly and can occur in all conceivable contexts in life from the cradle to the grave. A part of the interpreter's profession is to adapt to these situations. It includes linguistic and cultural adaptation, as well as adaptation of the interpreter’s appearance in order to not interfere with the parties involved in the assignment. Clothing is an important part of interpretation as the sign language is visual and the recipients understand the language through signs. This study focuses on the professional sign language interpreter’s perception of the dress code in the profession and how the choice of clothing is adapted to the assignments. The study conducted seven qualitative research interviews for this purpose. The analysis shows that there are adjustments in terms of what interpreters choose to wear, which depend on the type of assignment, to be both practically dressed and to signal professionalism in the environment. This dress code within the interpreting corps is an unwritten rule that everyone knows and follows, but which is not specifically stated once the education is completed. At the same time, several interpreters state that within the framework of the prevailing dress code, they can still creatively vary their attire and mark their personal identity.

The present study aimed to measure the cultural significance of clothing in the Aztec and Mayan civilizations , besides exposing the hierarchy , reflected in dressing practices and compare historical reports and graphical representations , portrayed in contemporary media. Thus, the work was devided into three stages: Imaging survey (Chapter 1: The history viewed), literature review (Chapter 2: The history read) and field research (Chapter 3: A living history). The first chapter emphasized the analysis of representations of the clothing of the Aztecs and Mayans, enabling the interpretation noted by several authors, in three different medias: Electronic game Age of Empires II: The Conquerors, the animation The Road to Eldorado and feature film Apocalypto. The second chapter allows to understand how History and the History of Fashion and Dress Code narrate these nations, especially about costumes. Finally, the third chapter unraveled the strong legacy left by these civilizations, even though not much explored by other types of research. Therefore, the study revealed that the solid hierarchical relationships within the classic Mesoamerican societies are still seen by media artists and contemporary fashion brands.
El presente estudio tuvo como objetivo medir la importancia cultural de la ropa en las civilizaciones azteca y maya, además de la exposición de la jerarquía, que se refleja en las prácticas de vestir y comparación de los informes históricos y las representaciones gráficas, retratados en los medios de comunicación contemporáneos. Para ello, se divide el trabajo en tres etapas: estudio de imágenes (Capítulo 1: La visión de la Historia), revisión de la literatura (Capítulo 2: La historia leída) y la investigación de campo (Capítulo 3: una historia vivida). El primer capítulo enfatiza el análisis de las representaciones de la ropa de los aztecas y más, lo que permite la interpretación han señalado varios autores, en tres medios diferentes: Electrónico juego Age of Empires II: The Conquerors, la animación The Road to El Dorado y la película Apocalypto. En el segundo capítulo, nos permite comprender cómo la Historia y la Historia de la Moda y el Código de Vestimenta dice esta gente, sobre todo cuando se trata de disfraces. Finalmente, el tercer capítulo fue desentrañar el fuerte legado dejado por estas civilizaciones, aunque poco explorado en otros tipos de investigación. Por lo tanto, el estudio reveló que las relaciones jerárquicas sólidos dentro de las sociedades mesoamericanas clásicas siguen siendo vistos por los artistas de medios y marcas de moda contemporáneas.
A presente investigação objetivou mensurar o significado cultural da indumentária nas civilizações Asteca e Maia, além de expor a hierarquização, refletida nas práticas vestimentares e comparar relatos históricos e representações gráficas, retratadas em mídias contemporâneas. Para tanto, dividimos o trabalho em três etapas: levantamento imagético (Capítulo 1: A história vista), revisão bibliográfica (Capítulo 2: A história lida) e pesquisa de campo (Capítulo 3: a história vivida). O primeiro capítulo ressaltou a análise das representações da indumentária dos Astecas e Mais, possibilitando notar a interpretação de diversos autores, em três distintas mídias: O jogo eletrônico Age of Empires II: The Conquerors, a animação O Caminho para Eldorado e o filme de longa metragem Apocalypto. Já o segundo capítulo, permitiu compreender como a História e a História da Moda e da Indumentária narra estes povos, sobretudo, no que se refere aos trajes. E, por fim, o terceiro capítulo possibilitou desvendar o forte legado deixado por estas civilizações, mesmo que pouco explorado em outras modalidades de pesquisas. Portanto, o trabalho revelou que as sólidas relações hierárquicas dentro das sociedades mesoamericanas clássicas são ainda visto por mídias, artistas e marcas de moda contemporâneas.

Full textAbstract:
This research is about the higher education of Indigenous Emirati women and how they balance the intricate demands of higher education with the social customs of a traditional society and the expectations placed on women. The study sought to identify and comprehend the issues which have affected the educational changes that are taking place, including culture, gender, religion, the influence of Western education processes, and the desire of an Indigenous population to raise their educational practices to an internationally recognised benchmark.
The research was aimed at providing insights into the distinctiveness of this group of women from their social and educational perspectives, and provides an alternative view of Emirati women, altogether different from the media stereotypes which have largely become accepted as representations of Arab women. It offers educators and researchers a deeper understanding of the relevant issues, and challenges preconceptions of educated women’s contribution to the workforce in a 21st century Gulf Arab nation. The experiences articulated about their educational encounters in a variety of pre-university environments, their reflections on contemporary university life, and the impact of Westernised influences on higher education in the UAE are put under the spotlight.
This qualitative study was undertaken within a constructivist, interpretive paradigm. A total of 43 media students were surveyed and interviewed to understand more about their attitudes and opinions on education and culture. Areas under consideration related to educational environments, learning styles and students’ relationships with teachers, as well as matters relating to cultural identity, cultural sensitivity and gender capital. The analysis extends the sparse knowledge and prevailing attitudes about Arab women held by many Western nations, and unearthed important factors, such as alignment of choosing a university with the established ethos of a conservative religious society. High school experiences, critical thinking, and English language skills all affected success at university. Emirati dress code was seen as an issue of personal choice and encapsulated Emirati identity, while being covered was not regarded as subjugation but as an expression of distinctiveness and leadership. Approval, deference and respect for the family underpinned most decisions about educational preferences and career choices. Attitudes towards financial recompense, job selection, finding a satisfactory work/life balance to sustain a traditional lifestyle and participate in the economic development of the UAE, were all pertinent considerations for this group of undergraduate women.
This research argues that higher education and Emirati culture are intrinsically linked, and the relationship between these two tenets influences the perspectives, and opinions of Indigenous undergraduate Arab women enrolled in a media course.
In highlighting the experiences of women’s transition from higher education to achieving personal goals and becoming effective members of the workforce, the thesis challenges preconceived opinions of educators and external agencies. In the UAE, the result has been significant societal change due to economic development, higher education and the national desire to create a workforce of highly educated females. Nevertheless, these changes are inherently directed by the powerful yet subtle influences of this traditional society, and how far female graduates will go to alter their familiar way of life.

ABSTRACT The present study systematically reviewed the transformation of Taiwan secondary school students’ dress codes during the Japanese colonial period through the description of text, interpretation of interaction, and explanation of context of relevant regulations in that period. This review was based on three points of view, including the power of discipline, body generation in society, and the function of the dress. Specifically, the developments of the transformation of Taiwan secondary school students’ dress codes were separated into three periods, including Japanese colonial period (1895-1945), period of Martial Law (1945-1987), and after the lifting of Martial Law (1987 - present). It is found that multiple factors interacted with each other to facilitate the transformations of dress codes of Taiwan secondary school students. They are (1) imagination of students’ bodies, (2) adaptations of students’ bodies, and (3) evolutions of technologies of power. Meanwhile, we also found that the dress codes of Taiwan secondary school students imply three characteristics of Taiwan society which are not affected by time, including (1) anxiety led by imaging the anomie of students’ bodies, (2) attitudes of paternalism, and (3) discreteness between truth and description in Chines culture. In conclusion, the study reviewed the transitions of the regulations of Taiwan secondary school students’ dress codes. It is found that the Office of Taiwan Governor-General in Japanese colonial period devoted to gradually construct the Taiwanese students’ body into the imaginations of subject in Japanese empire through all the regulations relevant to the dress codes of students’ bodies. It was more about nationalization and legalization. On the contrary, the focus of the period of Martial Law was militarization and standardization to make all students’ bodies into the soldiers to restore the country. Finally, the government, after the lifting of Martial Law, intended to release the students from the regulations of dress codes. Upon such action, the students are expected to enhance their capabilities of ruling the bodies of themselves to improve their civic literacy and then make them into the citizens of a democratic society.

O Código de Vestuário afigura-se como um recurso cada vez mais utilizado pelos empregadores.
Contudo, e na esteira do que sucede nos outros países, ele não aparece regulado na lei laboral portuguesa.
A banalidade da sua aplicação conjugada com a importância de que se reveste (não nos podemos esquecer que a sua violação importa um procedimento disciplinar que, em último recurso, poderá levar ao despedimento de um trabalhador) parece ser, por si só, motivo suficiente para uma abordagem, no mínimo, doutrinária.
Envolvidos por esta problemática, procura-se colocar e, simultaneamente, responder a algumas questões que surgem tanto para o empregador, como para o trabalhador, bem assim, como para quem, assumindo um papel neutro, procura analisar os direitos e os limites de cada uma das partes.
Ao longo do trabalho, é feita uma incursão por vários temas e analisada a problemática por várias perspectivas.
Começa-se por procurar o significado e sentido do próprio Código de Vestuário.
Depois, procura-se conhecer os poderes do empregador, sobretudo o seu poder de autoridade, bem como os direitos e deveres do trabalhador, em especial, o dever de obediência.
Para além disso, procura-se distinguir até onde é que as partes podem ir em casos de conflito ou colisão de direitos, tendo sempre por base a noção de razoabilidade.
De seguida procura-se analisar um acórdão relativo a um despedimento motivado pela imagem de um trabalhador.
E, finalmente, propõe-se um artigo na legislação laboral, a qual não dispõe de nenhuma norma subordinada ao tema.The Dress Code is an increasingly used resource by employers. Nevertheless, in the wake of what happens in other countries, it does not appear set in the Portuguese labour law. The banality of its combined application with the importance that is covered (we can’t forget that the violation leads to a disciplinary procedure as a last resort, that could lead to dismissal of an employee) seems to be in itself sufficient ground for an approach, at least doctrinaire. Involved in this issue, we try to put on and, simultaneously, answer some questions that arise for both the employer and the worker, as well as for those who, assuming a neutral role, seek to analyze the rights and limits of each party. Throughout the work, is made an incursion into several themes and analyzed the problem from various directions. It starts by looking for the meaning and sense of the Dress Code. Then, we seek to know the powers of the employer, especially the power of authority, as well as the rights and duties of the employee, in particular the duty of obedience. In addition, we try to distinguish how far the parties can go in cases of conflict or collision of rights, always based on the notion of reasonableness. Then we seek to examine a ruling on a dismissal motivated by the image of a worker. And finally, it is proposed an article on labour law, which has no existence.

For thousands of years, the culture characteristics of Chinese clothing decoration has been the product of combination and interaction of colorful appearance and the concept of“human and nature in harmony”. This thesis selected the topic and concentrated the research in the garment coloring only. Since the use of colors in garment has based on the traditional philosophy thinking to attain the state of human and nature in one, so as to demonstrate the effect of garment decoration system significantly impact country’s political and judicial system. Western system has a specific subject of “color theory” to understand the effect of color and to study its application. In this subject, it studies the scientific effect of light source color combination or color pallet mixing to express the contrast of “original colors” and “mixed colors”. But this western subject matter also limited to the multi-facet effect study in human visual reaction and the aesthetic appearance. The effect of color code in thousands years of Chinese history not only included the same effect as in the West but also the exceptional impact on the political system. Given this contrast of East and West, it demonstrates the tremendous culture gap. This enormous difference inspired this research to study the role of color code in Chinese garment history. This research was expected to extend various previous works to further analyze the historical recording in the area of color code of Chinese traditional clothing system, systematically summarize the finding, and provide the proof to enhance the overall understanding in the subject. The author further categorized the finding in chapters to complete the study with a conclusion.

Dress code is an important aspect in Chinese costume history. A dress code refers to a norm regulating dressing behavior. In Chinese society--ideally conceived as a hierarchical structure-- the dress code was intended to maintain and promote the existing social order. However, the implementation of such a system to have had its problems throughout Chinese history. The aim of this paper is to examine the extent of compliance with and discrepancy between the official dress code and the actual way of dressing during the Ming Dynasty, as well as to give an account of the possible reasons responsible for the latter. The official dress code of the Ming Dynasty was chiefly formulated under the Emperor Hongwu. The system was launched in February 1368, and perfected in November of the same year. The system was either enlarged or revised over the years, and it was not until 1397 that the system was finally completed. This system also became the standard of the official dress code under subsequent emperors. Since the Jianwen period (1399-) onward, apart from the allowance of the qi-lin (unicorn) to be used on the clothes of the Jinyiwei (military official) commander in 1453, the addition of the Zhongjing (leisure) clothes in 1528, the detailed specification of the court and ritual attire in 1529, and the redefining of the colors and patterns for ordinary clothing in 1537, the system was seldom amended and maintained a relatively long continuity.

The issue of a Muslim woman‟s dress code has been debated for centuries. This is of great importance as it is widely used as a criterion to measure the extent of a woman‟s piety or devotion to Allah.
A study of the religious texts on the issue is essential. Therefore, Qur‟anic text, Prophetic Traditions and Qur‟anic exegesis of both classical and modern scholars would have been used in determining the correct dress code for Muslim women.
While all research indicates that women dress conservatively, in order not to attract the attention of the opposite sex. The extent to which a woman must be covered has not been agreed upon. Even if what has to be covered is established by scholars, the manner in which this is to be done and the type of colours and fabric to be used needs further clarification.
The issue of the female dress code needs to be presented from a female perspective.Religious Studies and Arabic

This study focuses on the relationship between body image and the Muslim religious dress code of South African Indian Muslim female adolescents. During the literature search conducted by the researcher no research specifically on body image of female adolescents when wearing the Muslim dress code in South Africa could be found. South African Indian Muslim adolescents are faced with challenges in a changing environment. In the aftermath of 9/11 South African Indian Muslim adolescent females are undergoing changes on how they view the Muslim religious dress code and the impact it has on their body image. A new Muslim identity depicted by the Muslim religious dress code is adopted. The goal of this study was to determine how the Muslim adolescent female views the relationship between her body image and wearing the Muslim religious dress code. A phenomenological Gestalt, field theory approach was followed within a qualitative case study design. Furthermore, The Social Identity Theory served as additional theoretical framework. Analysis was done using Creswell’s application of Tesch’s Method. The participants for this study consisted of a sample size of six South African Indian Muslim female adolescents between the ages of 14 and 16. Of note, all the female participants attended the same school in Johannesburg and all participants wore the Muslim religious dress code to school. The qualitative data were collected in the form of unstructured in-depth interviews and projection-type photos with the participants. The researcher’s objective was to understand and interpret the meanings the participants gave to their perceptions and experiences, which was further supported through participant observation, self-reflective notes and field and observational notes. The interviews were recorded on tape and DVD. Recordings were
transcribed verbatim, analysis of contents and the data was then coded into categories from which themes and sub-themes emerged. Central themes and patterns of the experiences were interpreted and analysed within the context of the study. The researcher ensured that data was gathered from different data sources as described and data was considered from multiple dimensions to ensure triangulation. The findings of the study revealed that the Indian Muslim female adolescent was able to negotiate the wearing of the Muslim religious dress code with confidence and this resulted in a positive body image.MA (Psychology), North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2014

Full textAbstract:
W ostatnich latach, reguły dotyczące wyglądu pracownika podczas wykonywania jego obowiązków stały się bardziej restrykcyjne i wymagające od niego zarówno schludności, jak i adekwatności do zajmowanego stanowiska. Wygląd jest jednym z głównych elementów wizerunku człowieka, stanowi również narzędzie niewerbalnej komunikacji ze światem, a jego elementy mogą być przejawem określonej tradycji lub pomagać w ochronie życia i zdrowia. Co więcej, za pomocą takich wymogów dotyczących wyglądu pracowników, pracodawca może zapewnić porządek i bezpieczeństwo w procesie pracy, a także pomagać w budowaniu relacji pomiędzy współpracownikami.
Nie ulega jednak wątpliwości, że wywieranie przez pracodawcę wpływu na wygląd pracowników może być zarzewiem potencjalnych konfliktów, a z pozoru marginalne zagadnienie, w praktyce wywołuje wiele wątpliwości z punktu widzenia prawa pracy, na które nie można znaleźć rozwiązań wprost w przepisach obowiązującego prawa. Stanowi ono bowiem ingerencję w sferę wolności pracowników, które podlegają ochronie prawnej. Z tego względu, konieczne jest dokonanie szczegółowej analizy tego tematu.
Główną tezą, którą prezentuję w niniejszej rozprawie, jest założenie, że wymagania dotyczące wyglądu, stawiane pracownikom przez pracodawcę, są ingerencja w sferę wolności i praw pracownika, która jest chroniona przez prawo. W związku z tym, nie mogą one być formułowane w sposób dowolny i wymagają odpowiedniego uzasadnienia prawnego oraz właściwej formy. Bardzo istotne jest również wyznaczenie granic takiej ingerencji oraz skutków ich przekroczenia przez pracodawcę. Dopiero prawidłowo uargumentowane oraz zakomunikowane wymagania dotyczące wyglądu zewnętrznego, mieszczące się w granicach dozwolonej ingerencji, należy uznać za wiążące dla pracownika, a co za tym idzie, powodujące określone konsekwencje w wypadku ich nieprzestrzegania.

Full textAbstract:
This study looks at the histories of state imposed dress codes during the Cultural Revolutions in the People's Republic of China and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Following a communist ideology in China, a peasant attire called the Mao jacket was enforced on Chinese men and women, eliminating elitism and projecting a unified image of the people of China which also resulted in women looking similar to men. In Islamic Iran dress codes were enforced on both genders as well but it was women's attire which was most restrictive and regulated. The hejab in the form of the black chador resulted in women to be differentiated from men. But what these states have in common is that in both states dress codes have entailed a de-sexing of a woman's body in public. But humans are social actors, they make decisions, they choose, they resist. Formal and informal methods of regulation have important social effects on individuals and society at large. Thus clothing laws are not a simple history of regulation, they are also a history of opposition and resistance. This study, based on field and library research, also looks at how the same dress codes imposed by states have the potential to be used by individuals as mechanisms for countering state ideologies.

Dans cette thèse de doctorat, “Mapping the Captive Body in Three Twenty-
First Century Diasporic Women’s Writings,” j’analyse le fonctionnement du pouvoir
de l’État en relation avec le corps, comme le montrent les mémoires de Edwidge
Danticat, Azar Nafisi and Marina Nemat. En m’appuyant sur leurs écrits, j’explore les
différentes manières dont la violence, la dictature, et le patriarcat, parrainés par l’État,
modifient les constructions du corps, de l’esprit, de la voix et de la subjectivité. En
examinant ces formes institutionnalisées de violence et de coercition, je montre
comment le confinement physique engendre la captivité de l’esprit et la
dé(con)struction de soi. Ainsi, je conceptualise la captivité comme étant physique,
psychologique mais aussi sociale. En outre, je soutiens que la lutte pour résister à cet
effacement identitaire afin de récupérer la subjectivité et la corporealité prend la
forme d’une action individuelle et/ou collective.
Le premier chapitre contextualise les oeuvres étudiées pendant le règne de
deux Duvaliers, de Khomeini, en plus de la politique d’immigration des Etats-Unis
après le 11 septembre. En outre, ce chapitre fournit le cadre théorique. Le deuxième
chapitre est consacré à l’analyse l’emprisonnement et la privation des droits
fondamentaux de Joseph Dantica, soulevant ainsi des questions sur le biopouvoir qui
définit le Centre de Détention de Krome. Je montre comment Edwidge Danticat a
récupéré l’identité de son oncle à titre posthume. Le troisième chapitre étudie la
captivité des femmes engendrée par la surveillance et l’imposition d’un code
vestimentaire. J’analyse aussi comment Nafisi et ses étudiantes prennent refuge dans
la littérature afin de résister. Dans le dernier chapitre, je regarde comment la prison
régularise le genre et l’identité de Nemat. Je soutiens que le viol conjugual, étant une
violence politique liée au genre, devient un moyen par lequel la soumission et la
domination de Nemat deviennent possibles. Enfin, la dernière partie étudie
l’importance de l’amitié carcérale et de l’acte de l’écriture dans la résistance à et la
défiance de l’effacement.In my doctorat project, entitled “Mapping the Captive Body in Three Diasporic Women’s Writings,” I analyze the workings of state power in relation to the body, as illustrated in the works of Edwidge Danticat, Azar Nafisi and Marina Nemat. I explore the different ways state-sponsored violence, dictatorship and patriarchy alter the very constructions of body, mind, voice, and subjectivity. By considering these institutionalized forms of violence and coercion, I demonstrate how physical confinement engenders the captivity of the mind and the de(cons)truction of the self. In so doing, I conceptualize captivity as physical, psychological and social. In addition, I contend that the struggle to resist this erasure and reclaim subjectivity and corporeality takes the forms of individual, communal, and/ or collective action. The first chapter contextualizes and historicizes the studied works with the era the Duvalier, Khomeini’s dictatorship, in addition to the post 9/11 US immigration policies. It also provides the theoretical framework that frames this dissertation. The second chapter focuses on Joseph Dantica’s imprisonment and disfranchisement and raises questions about the biopwer that defines Krome Detention Center. I demonstrate the way Edwidge Danticat posthumously recover her uncle’s identity. The third chapter studies female captivity in terms of forced veiling and constant surveillance. I analyze how Nafisi and her students take refuge in and resist through the power of literature. In the fourth chapter, I look at how prison regulates Nemat’s gender and identity. I argue that marital rape, as a gendered political violence, becomes a means through which Nemat’s subjection and domination is possible. The second part of the chapter explores the importance of carceral friendship and the act of writing in defying and resisting erasure.
