Full textThe activity of album personalisation – most often called scrapbooking – results from the customary practice of personal or familial archive creation. Today – in Quebec and elsewhere – this practice is perpetuated and renewed in an art consisting of piecing together various materials into a collage in which family photographs hold a predominant place. As the lines between entertainments, traditional practices and culture blur, it is necessary to question how ethnology approaches these recent and increasingly popular leisure activities. This essay documents the main facets of the scrapbooking practice as it exists in Quebec (Canada). It examines how various aspects of today’s leisure activities influence the creation and transmission of familial heritage. How are today’s personal albums involved in the process of familial heritage creation? This study is based on an ethnological research conducted in the Quebec City region. The oral investigation conducted with scrapbooking lovers made possible the acquirement of knowledge regarding this production and the study of their views on the subject. More specifically, the study is focused on the following aspects: the activity’s logistics and how it relates to creativity and identity, the resulting scrapbooking, the performance context and its influence on the scrapbook’s creation process. Finally, we outlined the role scrapbooking plays in the familial heritage of scrapbookers. As an amateur practice, today’s scrapbooking activity is outside of traditional artistic endeavours due to its renewed form of expression. It is at the heart of several issues related, amongst other things, to mass consumption products and the new information technologies.

Full textEn 2018, la province de Québec a modifié son calendrier de vaccination contre les virus du papillome humain (VPH), remplaçant le calendrier comportant 2 doses de vaccin nonavalent par un calendrier de vaccination mixte, comportant une dose de vaccin nonavalent suivie d’une dose de vaccin bivalent. Toutefois, l’efficacité clinique et la durée de protection conférées par ce calendrier mixte ne sont pas connues avec précision, impliquant une incertitude quant à son impact populationnel sur l’incidence des maladies associées aux VPH. L’impact populationnel du calendrier mixte au Québec a été évalué à l’aide d’une étude de modélisation mathématique. Le modèle utilisé (HPV-ADVISE) est basé sur les individus et simule la dynamique de transmission des VPH à l’échelle populationnelle. Les mesures d’impact considérées incluent la réduction prédite par le modèle du taux d’incidence et du nombre total de cas des maladies attribuables aux VPH. L’effet de l’incertitude quant à l’efficacité vaccinale et la durée de protection sur l’impact du calendrier mixte a été exploré à l’aide d’analyses de sensibilité univariées. Pour les lésions cancéreuses et précancéreuses, les simulations ont globalement prédit une faible différence d’impact entre les scénarios les plus plausibles du calendrier mixte et le calendrier comportant 2 doses de vaccin nonavalent, conséquence de l’importance inférieure du fardeau attribuable aux génotypes 31/33/45/52/58 comparativement aux génotypes 16/18. L’impact sur l’incidence des condylomes s’est avéré beaucoup plus sensible à la durée de protection qu’à l’efficacité vaccinale. Pour les scénarios jugés plausibles, la réduction à long terme du taux d’incidence des condylomes a été prédite entre ~ 50 % (durée de protection de 20 ans) et 90 % (protection à vie, efficacité de 75 à 100 %). Cette grande variabilité dans les prédictions du modèle suggère qu’une surveillance populationnelle des infections à VPH et des condylomes suite à l’implantation du calendrier mixte pourrait être indiquée.
In 2018, the province of Québec (Canada) modified its vaccination schedule against human papilloma virus (HPV), replacing the 2-dose nonavalent schedule by a mixed schedule, comprising a single dose of nonavalent vaccine followed by a single dose of bivalent vaccine. However, clinical efficacy and duration of protection conferred by this mixed schedule are not known precisely, implying a level of uncertainty with respect to its population-level impact on HPV-associated diseases. The population-level impact of mixed HPV vaccination in Québec was examined with a mathematical modeling study. We used an individual-based model (HPV-ADVISE) that simulates HPV transmission dynamics at the population level. Impact measures that were considered in this study include model-predicted percentage reduction in incidence rate and in total number of cases of diseases attributable to HPV infections. The effect of uncertainty regarding vaccine efficacy and duration of protection on mixed schedule populational impact was explored with deterministic univariate sensitivity analyses. For precancerous and cancerous lesions attributable to HPV infections, the model globally predicted a small impact difference between the more plausible scenarios for the mixed schedule and the 2-dose nonavalent schedule. This is a consequence of the lesser populational importance of the disease burden attributable to genotypes 31/33/45/52/58 compared to genotypes 16/18. The impact on condyloma (anogenital warts) incidence proved much more sensitive to duration of protection compared to vaccine efficacy. For plausible mixed schedule scenarios, long-term percentage reduction of condyloma incidence rate was predicted between ~ 50 % (20 years protection scenario) and 90 % (lifelong protection and 75 % to 100 % efficacy scenarios). The high variability in model predictions within plausible scenarios suggests that populational surveillance of HPV infections and condyloma incidence following the introduction of the mixed schedule could be indicated.

Full textSpecialized and problem-solving courts emerged at the turn of the 1990s, promoting "community-based" supervision rather than prison sentences for offenders identified with a range "underlying issues" such as homelessness, substance abuse or mental illnesses. In 2013, following in the footsteps of numerous North American cities, Québec announced the creation of its own community court under municipal jurisdiction. This case study unpacks the conceptualization and implementation process of such a dispositif in Québec City. Its methodological approach combines documentary research (legal, political and media documents) and in-depth interviews (15) with key decision makers and partners involved in the development of the court. Analysis draws on political sociology of justice to uncover how the push for a community court is embedded in an agenda of urban "securitization" and "revitalization." The concept of the Therapeutic City is developed to examine the novel style of municipal governance that emerges to reshape the regulation of deviance at the intersection of a number of valued principles and behaviours, from professional sensitivity and personalized treatment to good governance and change in police culture. Rather than merely "softening" punishment, analysis demonstrates how this new normative framework reiterates the authority of legal supervision and the discretionary power of law enforcement. In this regard, research findings constitute a new milestone for understanding the political, moral, and economic processes that underlie judicial innovations, as well as the metamorphoses of social control at the local scale.

Full textWe are currently experiencing an aging of the population in the province of Québec. Even though many elders are food insecure, very few of them resort to food aid programs. However, the reasons behind this low take-up are unknown. This study aims to document the food access strategies used by food insecure lone elders living in the Limoilou neighborhood and to better understand the motives behind their use and non-use of several types of food aid programs (food banks, collective kitchens, etc.). We carried out two waves of fourteen individual interviews with food insecure lone elders from Limoilou, which deepened our understanding of their experience. The results of this study suggest interesting avenues for research and intervention to facilitate their access to food and adapt food aid programs to the elders’ needs and realities.

Full textField experiments were conducted at St. Emmanuel, Quebec, from 1998 to 2000 to investigate the combined effects of water table management and N fertilizer application rates on corn yield, concentrations of NO3- -N in the soil profile and tile subsurface drainage water, denitrification and N2O production rates, and N2O:N2O+N 2 production ratios in the soil profile. There were two water table treatments: free drainage (FD) with open drains at a 1.0 m depth from the soil surface and subirrigation (SI) with a water table depth of 0.6 m below the soil surface, and two N fertilization rates: 120 kg N ha-1 (N120) and 200 kg N ha-1 (N 200) arranged in a split-plot design. Compared to FD, subirrigation reduced NO3--N concentration in the soil by up to 50% and in drainage water by 55 to 73%. Water table had little effect on corn yield during the study period. Greater denitrification rates under SI were not accompanied with greater N2O emissions as ratios of N2O:N2O+N2 were lower under SI than in FD plots. Denitrification rate, N2O emissions, and their ratios were unaffected by N rate.
A second field experiment was initiated from 1999 to 2000 to assess impacts of tillage systems on NO3--N, denitrification, N2O, and ratios of denitrification end-products (N2O:N 2O+N2). The experiment was conducted on long-term momocropped corn experimental plots under conventional tillage (CT), reduced tillage (RT), and no-till (NT), located at the Macdonald Research Farm, McGill University. Soil NO3--N concentrations tended to be lower under RT than under NT or CT. Denitrification and N2O were similar among tillage systems.
Approximately 50% of soil denitrification activity was measured within the 0.15--0.45 m soil layer. Consequently, we propose that sampling the 0--0.15 m soil layer alone, as is usually done, may not give an accurate picture of soil denitrification activity. Dissolved organic carbon concentrations remained high in all soil depths sampled, but was not affected by water table, N rate or tillage system.

Full textLes sociologues de l’École de Chicago ont ouvert la voie à l’étude de la spatialisation des immigrants en lien avec leur assimilation, et cette problématique doit être remise à jour tant les villes et les caractéristiques des immigrants ont changé. Cette étude vise à comprendre la manière dont les immigrants choisissent leur domicile, depuis leur arrivée jusqu’à aujourd’hui, en analysant leur parcours d’établissement, dans la région métropolitaine de Québec. Une série de cartes, construites à partir de l’Enquête Nationale auprès des Ménages de 2011, donne d’abord une vue d’ensemble de la dispersion des immigrants sur le territoire de cette ville. L’analyse des entretiens semi-dirigés, réalisés avec huit immigrants français et six immigrants maghrébins, révèle ensuite les facteurs déterminants dans leurs parcours d’établissement, dont les principaux sont : le sentiment d’ascension sociale, la place accordée au réseau de sociabilité, et la morphologie de la ville de Québec.

Full textWe have witnessed in recent years a renewed interest in the world of witchcraft in Western societies. TV series, films, press articles are all there to take on the image of the witch in a new historical context. However, very few know the reality of identities from pagan and neopagan communities, such as those linked to Wicca, a magico-religious tradition which presents a singular cosmology that provides meaning to the relationships between the gender identity of practitioners and their ritual and magical practices. From an anthropological perspective, this dissertation proposes to explore the construction and expression of a Wiccan and gendered identity in Quebec, through public rites and Wiccan daily life. It is a question of taking a critical look at the way of apprehending the multiplicity of gendered identities today within Wicca. This ethnography aims to explore the theological changes that have arisen after the assertion of communities presenting a different vision of heteronormative gender identity.

Full textThe findings led me to four conclusions. First, in the private realm of her home the Hassidic woman commands and receives a great deal of authority and respect. Second, it is the Hassidic woman who is the final arbiter of her own information needs and her literacies encompass a diversity of purposes, materials and competencies. The third finding is that the Hassidic woman is able to successfully negotiate the various arenas of her life without compromising tradition and religious law. Finally, although many of these women in their roles as homemaker and wives, experience financial, emotional and physical hardships while raising large families, I have observed in them infinite amounts of patience, good will, serenity and love.

Full textRecent bioarchaeological research managed to reconstruct physical activities of certain individuals on the basis of traces left on their skeleton. The integration of two indicators gives a good picture of the physical stress applied on the tissues. Consequently, we integrated bone structural adaptation and muscular modification in order to determine the level of physical stress and to establish the dominant limb implied in certain specialized tasks. We selected eighteen mature men out of the skeletal collection from the St. Matthew protestant cemetery in Quebec city. We recorded twelve muscular and tendinous insertions on a four point scale and measured medio-lateral and antero-posterior diameters to produce four activity related markers on the upper and lower limbs. Variations between the group suggest different models of physical behavior, which can be related to broad social categories of workers.

Full textCette étude explore les expériences d’exclusion sociale chez les réfugiés de l’Afrique subsaharienne réinstallés à Québec et cherche à comprendre les effets des formes d’exclusion sociale sur leurs conditions de vie et leur santé. La recherche se base sur un devis qualitatif qui donne la parole à dix réfugiés en provenance de différents pays de l’Afrique subsaharienne. Ces personnes ont été rencontrées lors d’entrevues individuelles semidirigées. Les résultats de l’étude ont permis de mettre en lumière différentes expériences d’exclusion sociale dans différents milieux comme le travail, l’école, les commerces, le transport en commun et différents lieux publics. Les données tirées des entrevues font ressortir différentes formes d’exclusion : discrimination raciale à l’embauche, mépris identitaire, difficulté de créer des liens sociaux avec la population hôte, non-respect des droits fondamentaux et des règles de programmes contraignantes. L’exclusion sociale vécue par certains réfugiés subsahariens réinstallés à Québec s’accompagne de conditions de vie très délétères à leur santé : insécurité alimentaire, faible revenu, logements insalubres, réinstallation dans des quartiers mal desservis par les services et les commerces. Cette recherche relève également quelques effets perçus de l’exclusion sociale et des conditions de vie sur la santé tels que des maladies chroniques et des problèmes de santé mentale.

This study seeks to explore experiences of social exclusion among refugees from sub-Saharan Africa resettled in Quebec and to understand the effects of forms of social exclusion on their living conditions and their health. The research is based on a qualitative quote that gives the floor to experts to live, ten refugees from different countries of sub-Saharan Africa. These people were met in semi-structured individual interviews. The results of the study shed light on different processes of social exclusion in different environments such as work, school, businesses, public transportation and various public places. The forms of social exclusion identified by participants are related to racial discrimination in hiring, identity contempt, difficulty in creating social links with the host community, lack of respect for fundamental rights and restrictive program rules. The social exclusion experienced by sub-Saharan refugees resettled in Quebec makes them experience living conditions that are very deleterious to their health: food insecurity, low income, unhealthy housing, resettlement in neighborhoods that are unfavorable to health and unsafe. In addition, this research identifies some effects of social exclusion and living conditions on health such as chronic diseases and mental health problems.

Full textDropping out of school can seriously affect employment possibilities and social integration. There are tools to investigate and measure the level of risk of dropping out. Academic performances and behaviour problems are well documented risk factors. Impulsivity and risk taking can lead to problematic behaviour. Certain studies have looked into the impact of stress on the dropping out process, but its impact on academic performances, impulsivity and risk taking has never been evaluated directly with the risk level of dropping out. Objective and hypothesis : The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of stress on academic performances, impulsivity and risk taking and to measure the relation of this impact with the risk level of dropping out of school. The hypothesis is that higher the risk level, higher the negative impact stress will have on our measures of academic performance, impulsivity and risk taking. Method : 37 young adults between 15 and 20 years old with no diploma took part in the study. After measuring the risk level of dropping out, a full characterization was made followed by academic performance, impulsivity and risk taking tasks before and after a social stress condition, the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST). Results : Our salivary cortisol samples show that the TSST did not produce a significant change in levels of stress to adequately test our hypothesis. Our results show a significant interaction between impulsivity and the risk level of dropping out. Furthermore, the relation between risk taking and impulsivity in our results is interesting Conclusion : The objective of this project could not be adequately tested since the stress condition didn't produce a significant stress reaction, as measured by salivary cortisol. The level of risk of dropping out was significantly correlated with impulsivity, but not risk taking, nor academic performances.

Full textThe founding principles on which western education systems hinge have been the subject of much debate for decades. Studies have shown important shortcomings in the system that remain to bead dressed (Giroux, 1988; Koehler et Kim, 2012; Shields, 2003). It is therefore essential to consider structuring avenues that could alleviate them. In order to contribute to this reflection, this thesis,set within the field of educational administration, ponders innovative educational practices in order to better understand what prevents or supports pedagogical innovation in schools. To that end, the methodology is based in a participant observation of a case study with an ethnographic approach as part of the international project Intercultural Education for Environment and SustainableDevelopment (IEESD): Young people’s rapport to scientific knowledge, territories and their ecocitizen commitment at the end of secondary school in France and Quebec led by Barbara Baderand Jean-Marc Lange (2017-2020, FRQSC-ANR). Data are collected via audio-recordings, a journal with field notes and different documents relating to students’ reflections. This research particularly focuses on the implementation process in Quebec City, with 19 high school students in Grade 11 and in collaboration with two female teachers. The main contribution of this research is to describe the emerging elements that support and hinder educational innovation as well as the reflections that accompany its implementation, with an emphasis on the school administration leadership and its transformative role. Through its observations of educational activities, and descriptions of the contrast between the student and teacher interview content, this research contributes to the reflection on innovative and emancipatory educational practices, as well as to the development of avenues that seem most promising to support the implementation of this type of educational innovation.

Full textTechnology that improves the cost and performance of housing has advanced over time. Although some innovative design and construction systems (or approaches) that attempt to meet societal and individual demands for housing are available in today's market, homebuilders tend not to apply unfamiliar approaches to their housing developments, since their business operation is often based on convention. Another reason, which inhibits a builder's adoption of new housing technology, is the extra cost required for seeking and analysing information. Thus, the homebuilders' decision-making processes for the adoption of 'familiar' and 'unfamiliar' design and construction systems (or housing systems) which affect the configuration of housing need to be well programmed.
Accordingly, this study, composed of four parts, focuses initially on identifying housing market trends and issues in Quebec, as well as introducing the new concept of mass customisation that encourages homebuilders to standardise parts of a house---i.e. the creation of mass custom homes. Then, in consideration of this new concept, as well as a value analysis approach that helps facilitate homebuilders' buying decisions, it proposes a choice model for the design and construction approaches to the delivery of 'lower-cost and higher-performance' housing. Thirdly, to assess its practicality, the proposed decision-making model is demonstrated in collaboration with a selected homebuilder in Quebec. Finally, the results of this study are discussed in depth in order to identify future research opportunities.
In view of the demonstration project conducted in this study, the author concluded that the proposed 'choice model' could function effectively as a practical decision-making support tool (or system) that helps open the door for homebuilders to generate and select alternatives that aid them to produce lower-cost and higher-performance housing. As a consequence of programming the homebuilders' buying decision-making process, the goal identification uncertainty and goal/purchase matching uncertainty, which often hinder their adoption of unfamiliar, innovative housing systems, could be reduced, or eliminated.

Full textThe study exposes arguments used to deny and justify racism, and discusses the disparate understandings of race-related concepts that make it difficult for dominant and oppressed racial groups to see eye-to-eye. The author then uses the findings of the study to answer and critique a 1998 article by S. Davies and N. Guppy that challenges the claim that there is anti-Black racism in Canadian education.
The final chapter of the study suggests that the American literature on race is more relevant to the Canadian context than is often acknowledged. It suggests that anti-racist education in Canada has less to do with "giving teachers...strategies" for passing on "tolerance to the next generation" than with teaching teachers to examine their own assumptions. The author recommends that Canadian education be examined through a Critical Race Theory approach, which centers race.

Full textThe emergence of cooperatives providing services in the field of health and social services is a rather marginal phenomenon, although their number has increased over the last decades. The SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative in Quebec City’s Lower Town has been created by nurses and social workers whose aim was to facilitate access to adapted primary care for a population unreached by conventional structures. The objective of this study is to understand the context which has led to the foundation of the SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative. In order to achieve this objective, a qualitative single case study with embedded units of analysis adopting a methodological perspective inspired by an epistemology of the particular was conducted. Interviews with founding members (n=5) as well as data from interview transcripts conducted with these same individuals for a previous study were used. The results of this research provide details regarding the socio-economic, political, institutional and individual contexts that are liable to contribute to the understanding of the emergence of this model in the province of Quebec. In addition, the results suggest that SABSA's founding members aim to use the cooperative model as an innovation tool with the intention to offer services that were previously missing, inadequate, incomplete or fragmented, in the absence of any possibility to improve the services offered by the current structures. Moreover, the founding members of SABSA use the cooperative model to involve all those concerned in the decision-making process relating to services offered and their organization. Ultimately, the emergence of the SABSA Multi-Stakeholder Cooperative highlights the need and the challenge of organizing dynamic spaces conducive to innovation and collective participation to governance for current health care systems.
