Barrett, Michael Joseph. "Exploring choristers' perceptions of a university choir as potential for social capital and personal value". Thesis, University of Pretoria, 2017. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/62644.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Numerous studies emphasise the importance of music-making as an integral human experience, but only a handful focus on the perceived benefits of participating in a university choir as experienced by the singers themselves. An extensive literature search revealed that no research has been conducted that specifically focuses on this topic within a multicultural South African university choir. There is an increasing interest in the attributed values associated with membership in a collective music activity, especially with regard to choirs. The aim of this ethnographic case study was to explore the perceived benefits of choir participation for choristers who are members of a multicultural university choir in South Africa and to examine to what extent if at all social capital is generated as a by-product of their choir participation. A qualitative research approach was most suitable in order to gain an in-depth perspective of choristers' personal perceptions. Data collection included interviews, focus groups and observations of rehearsals and performances, involving 76 members of the University of Pretoria Camerata. The findings of this research highlight the personal, social and musical values attributed to membership within the choir as perceived by its members. The main findings revealed that the experience of singing in a choir is polygonal, and that such experiences are rewarding, plentiful, and even challenging at times. Choristers perceive their participation to be beneficial to their health and see the choir environment as safe and conducive to forming important relationships. Cultural integration takes place as an extension of being associated within a diverse group of people and a wealth of trust is generated amongst the singers, regardless of their cultural, religious or language differences. Findings indicated some negative perceptions as experienced by the singers, as cultural barriers still exist between members which were exacerbated by political tensions on campus at the time of data collection. Another stressful element of choir participation is the extensive time and commitment required due to the demanding and eventful choir calendar, as well as full academic programmes for which they are registered. The study provides empirical evidence of how two types of social capital, namely bridging- and bonding social capital, are generated within the choir. Bridging social capital exists amongst students from different ethnic backgrounds; while bonding social capital is evident between specific language-, racial- and cultural groups within the choir. As a result of choir participation, social norms and values are shared amongst the singers and networks and connections are established across all types of boundaries, creating an environment of reciprocity between singers. Results from this study highlight that the Camerata establishes a wealth of trust between its members, on a personal, professional and musical level.Thesis (DMus)--University of Pretoria, 2017.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The intent of this study was to observe four at-risk adolescent females participating in a community youth choir. Their self-concept and behavior were monitored for sixteen weeks to see if this music experience had any impact on them.The four girls were institutionalized at a treatment facility for troubled juveniles and wards of the state of Indiana.The girls participated in the White River Youth Choir.Qualitative data were gathered via rehearsal observations, weekly cottage dinner visits, journal entries, formal and informal dialogues. telephone calls, written correspondence. and miscellaneous materials.Two standardized inventories were used as supplementary data.The Child Behavior Checklist/4-18 (CBCL/4-18) was filled out by a counselor. The Tennessee Self-Concept Scale: Second Edition (TSCS: 2) was completed by the girls.Data management and analysis were aided by QRS NUD*IST software (Non-Numerical Unstructured Data Indexing. Searching, and Theory-Building).The naturalistic inquiry technique of triangulation was emphasized when discovering patterns among various interrelationships.Emerging themes were:music plays a role in these girls lives, a three versus one division separates the girls, the girls segregate themselves from others, a community choir may not be the panacea, and indications that the girls have been or are at-risk sexually.Behavior and self-concept changes occurred but could not be attributed specifically to choir involvement.Findings of the study suggest that uncontrolled factors (i.e. staff turnover. communication problems, absenteeism, and anti-social behavior) must be addressed before at-risk teenage girls could successfully assimilate themselves into a community youth choir.An on-campus music experience is recommended for institutionalized female adolescents. Organizing a music ensemble having support of institutional staff, emphasizing short-term commitment, using a staff member as director, allowing ownership by using familiar music as well as letting the girls have a say in its choice. providing reasonable challenges. and giving girls individualized attention is suggested.School of Music

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
As students progress through adolescent development, researchers have observed a lack of male participation in choral music activities. This male to female imbalance is often attributed to a perception that singing is a feminine activity and results in a lack of balance in choral music ensembles. The purpose of this mixed methods study was to explore adolescent gender identity as it relates to singing interest and choral music participation. An explanatory sequential mixed methods design was used, in which quantitative data were collected and analyzed followed by in-depth qualitative interviews. A group of 9th grade students (n=174) completed the Children’s Sex Role Inventory and the Singing Interest Inventory to gauge their self-perceived levels of masculinity and femininity along with their level of singing interest. Information from the quantitative portion of this study indicated that girls had both a higher interest in singing and a higher rate of participation in choral music ensembles than their male peers. A significant contribution of this study was that although singing is often perceived as feminine, no significant differences were found between categorized gender groups and singing interest.
Qualitative interviews were conducted with two groups of male students who were not enrolled in choir: low singing interest scores (n=4) and high singing interest scores (n=4). Transcribed and coded interviews resulted in the following themes: low singing interest, Guys are physical, Girls are feminine, Shared perceptions, Guys don’t sing, and Calling them names; high singing interest, Men want muscles, Girls are expressive, Shared perceptions, Choir is for girls, Get made fun of, and No labels. The shared theme Shared perceptions suggests that participant perceptions are the same as their parents and friends. The theme No labels was unique to the high singing interest group. Participants in that group demonstrated a higher level of acceptance for atypical gender behavior.

The purpose of the current study was to test the effects of participation in a treatment grief choir vs. standard care grief group (verbal) on bereaved persons’ perceived grief, coping, energy, social support and health and to examine the experiences of those participating in both groups. In this mixed-methods study, the results from the qualitative phenomenological focus groups were used for explaining and interpreting the findings of the Randomized Control Trial (RCT). Within the RCT, five people completed the treatment grief choir and four completed the standard care grief group (N=9). A repeated-measures ANOVA was employed to detect any statistical significance among the adult grievers. A significant within-subjects effect was found in both groups for the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) start-of-session grief, NRS end-of- session grief, Hogan Grief Reaction Checklist (HGRC), and NRS end-of-session coping measures. These results indicate that both groups showed significant improvement over time in these areas. A between-subjects effect was found for the NRS end-of-session grief and for the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) with the standard care grief group scoring significantly better over time than the treatment grief choir. Finally, one interaction effect was found for the NRS end-of-session health scores at week sixteen, with a significant gain for the standard care grief group. For the qualitative portion of this study, five members of the treatment grief choir and three of the four members from the standard care grief group participated in separate focus group interviews. A seventeen-step analysis of the interview data was employed to discover meaningful descriptions and experiences while maintaining validity and integrity of the process. The following categories emerged from the analysis of the treatment grief choir interview: The Grief Choir Did Help; Songs were Important in Grief; Making Musical Connections Helped; Interactions with Grievers were Valued; The Music Therapists Influenced the Experience; and Gained Insights about Grief. The following categories emerged from the standard care grief group: Standard Care Did Help; Timing and Composition of Group Mattered; Standard Care was a Complex Experience; and The Experience of Being in Research. Recommendations for future grief choirs and standard care grief groups are discussed.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Knowledge of motivation factors can assist conductors and music educators at all levels in planning and implementation of musical goals. The purpose of this study was to identify motivational factors to join the choir and maintain membership in the choir as well as the role of stress/anxiety in maintaining choral membership. In addition, the role of musicianship was evaluated in terms of music aptitude and vocal ability. Participants (N=135) from four adult, auditioned community choirs participated in this study. Data was collected using Advanced Measures of Music Audiation, Singing Coach, measure of vocal ability and a questionnaire relating to topics of motivation, retention and stress and anxiety contained within the sub-constructs of Cusp Catastrophe Theory. The results of this study identified aesthetic motivation as the primary construct as to why members elect to join the choir. In direct relationship to this motivation, lack of aesthetic beauty and truth was identified as why members would not retain their membership in the choir. Members did not experience stress and anxiety while learning or performing choral music. However, they did agree that some level of stress is beneficial to singing. In this study, no participant suggested that stress and anxiety related to vocal ability would prevent them from achieving their performance goal. Implications from this research may include determining program literature to be presented that is perceived as having aesthetic qualities which will be beneficial for membership and retention of choir members.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between seventh, tenth, and twelfth graders' participation in school choir and their perceived levels of self-concept and social support. The problems of the study were to determine (1) if there were significant differences in perceived self-concept and social support levels of choir members and non-music students, and (2) if there were significant changes in self-concept and social support of choir members from grades seven to ten to twelve. A secondary concern was school activity involvement, to guard against attributing significant differences of self-concept and social support to choir participation alone.

Résumé : Le chant choral serait bénéfique à tout âge : cette étude choisit d’en mesurer les impacts auprès de personnes très âgées. Un devis quantitatif quasi-expérimental à trois groupes fut adopté : la Chorale, l’Hebdo-Bistro (ateliers et conférences, groupe de comparaison), et le groupe Témoin. L’étude longitudinale, intergénérationnelle, comporta trois saisons. La cognition (Mattis, 3MS, Trail Making, empan numérique, fluences formelle, catégorielle), l’humeur (bien-être général, dépression (GDS)), l’autoefficacité (GSES) et l’autonomie (QAF) furent mesurées à trois reprises (pré, post, 2e post). En outre, des mesures hebdomadaires furent administrées concernant la santé physique (consultations médicales, médicaments, chutes) et la participation sociale (activités). L’analyse intergroupe ne rapporta aucune différence significative. Les comparaisons intragroupe montrèrent une amélioration significative pour la Chorale (3MS et activités sociales), et une tendance d’amélioration pour la Chorale et l’Hebdo-Bistro (fluence formelle). Bien que le petit échantillon (n=21) exclue toute généralisation, les résultats demeurent inspirants en contexte de vieillissement populationnel.Abstract : Choir singing is known to be beneficial : this study chose to measure its impacts on elderly people. The quantitative and quasi-experimental design included three groups : the Choir, Hebdo-Bistro (conference workshops), the comparison group, and the Control group. This longitudinal, intergenerational study lasted for three seasons. Cognition (Mattis, 3MS, Trail Making, Numeral WAIS Scale, Formal and Categorical Fluences), humor (Psychological Well-being of American Adults, Geriatric Depression Scale), self-efficacy (Schwartzer), and autonomy (QAF questionnaire) were administered three times (pre, post, 2nd post). In addition, weekly measurements were administered on health related topics (medical consultations, medication, falls) and social participation (activities). The analyses showed no significant differences between groups. However, the intra-group analyses showed a significant improvement for the Choir (3MS, social activities), and a tendency for improvement (Formal Fluence) for the Choir and Hebdo-Bistro groups. The small sample (n =21) excludes any generalization, but the results are promising in today’s aging context.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Since the introduction of Local Management of Schools(LMS) as a result of the 1988 Education Reform Act (ERA),the role of the school governing body has evolved and been refined by successive legislative acts and consequent regulations. In recognition of this development, governing bodies have been the subject of a number of research studies eg Kogan et al (1984), Earley (1994), Deem et al (1995) and Scanlon et al (1999), all examining a range of themes from role and context, composition and early development, citizenship and effectiveness. Suchr esearchp rovides the context for this study into the role of the Chair of a school governing body. Other than Esp and Saran (1995), Sheam et al (1995) and Scanlon et al (1999), little research has been conducted into the role of the Chair. It is the contention of this study that, through incremental legislative acts, statutory instruments, circulars and other official DfEE documentation, the role of the Chair has become central not only to the workings of the governing body but also central to the operation of school governance as seen through the eyes of the DfEE. This position has, however, not been a planned progression of deliberate steps but an unplanned incremental development. The Chair of governors, it is argued here, has emerged as a"key player" in the operation of school governance. The research was conducted in four LEAs in the North East of England using a number of research instruments which included a questionnaire, semi-structured interviews, diary recording, recorded observations and documentation analysis. The questionnaire was sent to all Chairs of governors in three LEAs - Northshire, Newshire and Sunshire. The sample was 320 and the response rate was 43%. The interviews were conducted with twelve Chairs in three LEAs with the author's LEA of Southshire replacing Sunshire. Three interviews were also conducted with the Governor Training Co-ordinators in three LEAs in the region. Eight Chairs of governors were invited to record a structured diary for a period of four weeks and six Chairs did so. Three governing body meetings in the author's LEA were observed and recorded using an observation schedule. Finally, in addition to the close scrutiny of all legislative acts since 1980 with regard to education and school governance and other official documentation, minutes of meetings of school governing bodies in Southshire for the academic year 1998-99 were examined. The findings from this localised study show that the Chairs' perceive themselves as "key players", with the Head teacher, in the operation of school business. This is supported by factors such as the amount of time spent by Chairs on school business, their role in the committee structure of governing bodies, their working relationships with Heads and the routes of contact to the WEE and LEA. Whilst pressures continue to grow and the pace of change quickens, Chairs feel that they are able to cope. Evidence of tensions in the relationships between Chair and Head were found to be less than expected and where they did exist, they were largely as a result of difficult inter-personal relationships rather than policy differences. The research also shows a lack of formal and informal contact between Chairs. There is no self-supporting network at local, regional or national level. Chairs' acknowledged the importance of training but were willing to demote its priority in the face of other factors eg budgets. Chairs did not access training for themselves. The research concludes with the need to re-assess the role of the Chair in the light of the key functions now allocated to the position by legislation and the growing significance the position has in the operation of effective school governance.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Paradoxalement, alors que foisonne la littérature sur la question des propriétés incitatives des différents schémas de rémunération (le partage du profit, le quota individuel, le tournoi. . . ), les analyses du choix du mode optimal de rémunération restent rares. Il en résulte une certaine indétermination : l'employeur est confronté à de nombreux dispositifs a priori incitatifs, sans qu'il puisse déterminer celui à mettre en œuvre. L'objet de cette thèse est précisément de lever cette indétermination. Nous envisageons cette question du choix du mécanisme optimal de rémunération sous l'angle des comportements des salariés entre eux. L'employeur met en place une règle spécifique de rémunération parce qu'elle lui permet d'obtenir de ses agents qu'ils consacrent une part plus ou moins importante de leur effort à s'entraider et à coopérer. Dans ces conditions, nous montrons que le choix d'un mécanisme relève de deux éléments. En premier lieu, des caractéristiques technologiques du procès de production, en particulier l'intensité de la nécessité que les salariés coopèrent pour produire. En second lieu, de la capacité du mécanisme de réguler le comportement des agents, et de les contraindre à adopter un comportement conforme aux exigences productives de l'employeur.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Phenomenological research was conducted to explore the lived experiences of adolescents in a Children’s home who participate in a choir that is facilitated from a community music therapy perspective. The case study involved 16 weekly choir sessions, where a variety of vocalisations and interactive vocal interventions were implemented. A performance marked the end of the process, where preferred songs were performed. Fourteen adolescents residing in Bramley Children’s Home participated in the choir and the research. Qualitative data was collected through 14 semi-structured individual interviews at the end of the process. All interview transcripts were analysed through utilising interpretative phenomenological analysis. The study concluded that participation in the community music therapy choir offered the adolescents perceived meaningful intra- and interpersonal experiences. At an intrapersonal level, the participants lived experience entailed discovering their musical voices, accessing inner strength to take action both in the here-and-now and in the future as well as experiencing a healthier picture of themselves through increased self-awareness, self-esteem and self-confidence. Utilising cognitive skills and experiencing, expressing and regulating emotions were also included in the in the intrapersonal findings. In terms of interpersonal experiences, the adolescents perceived growth in relationships, improved social skills, social harmony and connection into the community. An important finding in this study that drew on a community music therapy focus is connection into the community, where the adolescents are experiencing sustaining relationships and continuous musiking within their communities.Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2016.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Le dépistage du cancer de la prostate est largement controversé de par l’équilibre de la balance bénéfices-risques de cette procédure. L’enjeu de santé publique est alors d’accompagner au mieux les hommes susceptibles de se faire dépister pour qu’ils puissent être informés et participer au choix. L’objectif de ce doctorat est de contribuer à comprendre pourquoi les hommes participent au dépistage du cancer de la prostate, pour pouvoir améliorer dans un second temps leur accompagnement. Nous avons tout d’abord interrogé des hommes sur leurs connaissances, leurs sources d’informations et leur rôle dans le choix de participer au dépistage du cancer de la prostate. Ces entretiens ont abouti à la nécessité de concevoir un nouvel outil d’information pour améliorer les connaissances des hommes, en particulier sur les risques de la procédure de dépistage. Enfin, nous avons estimé comment les bénéfices et les risques étaient intégrés dans le choix des individus selon si ces derniers avaient eu accès à notre outil d’information. Les résultats de ce travail montrent que les hommes semblent moins favorables à une proposition de dépistage après avoir eu accès à notre outil d’information. Cependant, cela ne modifie pas leur appréciation des bénéfices et des risques du dépistage. Il est nécessaire de poursuivre les efforts pour permettre aux hommes de faire un choix éclairéProstate cancer screening is highly controversial because of the benefit risk ratio. An issue is to support men susceptible to perform this screening towards informed choice and shared decision-making. The aim of this doctorate is to understand why men adhere to prostate cancer screening, and in a second time to improve their support. We interviewed men about their knowledge, their information seeking behaviour, and their implication in prostate cancer screening decision. This highlighted the necessity to create a new information tool to improve men’s knowledge, in particular regarding risks of the screening procedure. Finally, we investigate benefit risk trade-off with and without our information tool access. Results of this work shows that men are less favourable to a screening option after taking into account our information tool. However, benefit and risk of this screening appreciation was not changed. We need to continue efforts to allow men to make an informed choice

Geay, Kevin. "Enquête sur les rapports au politique des classes supérieures". Thesis, Paris 9, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015PA090061.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette thèse s’appuie sur une série d’enquêtes qualitatives et quantitatives pour proposer une analyse systématique du rapport au politique des classes supérieures françaises. Notre hypothèse est que l’on peut mieux spécifier la manière dont les mieux dotés participent, opinent, et font valoir leurs intérêts, si l’on prend au sérieux tous les comportements qui ne collent pas avec la description usuelle d’une classe supérieure compétente, investie et intégrée politiquement. Ainsi, s’intéresser aux formes bourgeoises de scepticisme et de relâchement dans la participation conventionnelle autorise une compréhension plus fine du lien entre statut social et politisation. De même, être attentif aux ratés de la reproduction des préférences politiques révèle en creux ce qui, dans le fait d’appartenir aux classes supérieures, dispose au vote de droite. Enfin, nous préciserons les conditions de possibilité du pouvoir des classes supérieures en prenant pour objet les rendements incertains du capital social spécifique que constitue la proximité aux élus, d’une part, et les tentatives malheureuses de contrôle territorial, d’autre partThis thesis is based on a series of qualitative and quantitative surveys. It provides a systematic analysis of French upper classes’ attitudes towards politics. I argue that behaviors that do not fit with the usual description of upper classes as politically competent, committed and well-represented should be taken into account. This approach allows a better understanding of how upper classes actually participate, make electoral choices and defend their interests. The thesis develops as follows. First, I show that investigating why bourgeois occasionally abstain from voting or avoid talking politics leads to a thorough comprehension of the link between social status and participation. Second, I provide evidence that the analysis of uncommon trajectories of members of the bourgeoisie who support left-wing parties indirectly reveals what makes the former more likely to be conservative voters. Third, I study how upper classes members use their proximity to politicians as a resource, and the risks they run by doing so. Finally, I study what happens when upper classes attempt to control space, but are deprived of politicians’ support

Résumé : Contexte : La participation des patients et de leurs proches au processus de choix de soins ainsi que l’implication des différents professionnels de la santé dans ce processus sont des priorités pour améliorer la qualité des soins. Objectifs : L ’objectif de cette recherche était de décrire comment le processus de communication entourant le choix de soins entre les professionnels, le patient et ses proches pouvait être amélioré dans le contexte de maladies graves. Suivant une perspective de recherche-action, ce projet visait également à élaborer une intervention pour favoriser ce processus. M éthode : Deux séries de quatre entretiens avec des professionnels de la santé du Centre de santé et de services sociaux de Rouyn-Noranda (CSSSRN) ont été menées entre 2009 et 2010. Les groupes représentaient des équipes (a) des soins intensifs et de l’urgence, (b) des étages de médecine et de chirurgie, (c) des soins de longue durée et de la réadaptation, (d) des soins à domicile et de cliniques externes. La première série d’entretiens a fait l’objet d’une analyse thématique alors que la deuxième série a fait l’objet d ’un questionnement analytique. Résultats : Vingt-sept et 29 participants représentant 9 professions de la santé ont respectivement participé aux entretiens de la première et de la deuxième série. La première série d’entretiens a révélé que tous les professionnels de la santé jouent un rôle dans le processus de communication entourant le choix de soins. Des stratégies utilisées par les professionnels pour favoriser la participation du patient et de ses proches à ce processus sont aussi ressorties de même que des moyens de communication utilisés entre les professionnels. Un outil de communication multidisciplinaire a été conçu à la lumière des résultats et la feuille de Niveaux d ’intervention thérapeutique (NIT) du CSSSRN a été modifiée. La deuxième série d ’entretiens a mis en relief qu’un outil de communication multidisciplinaire permettrait une meilleure reconnaissance des rôles joués par les professionnels non médecins et qu’un outil avec des choix d’objectifs de soins plutôt que des niveaux d ’interventions favoriserait la participation des professionnels non médecins, du patient et de ses proches au processus de choix de soins. Enfin, la pertinence d’un outil de référence avec des stratégies de communication pour discuter des choix de soins a été soulignée. Conclusion : Ce projet de recherche-action a permis de mieux connaître les rôles que jouent les professionnels non médecins dans la communication entourant le choix de soins et de faire ressortir des pistes de solution pour améliorer l’impact de leur participation et en accroître la légitimité. Finalement, trois outils pour améliorer la communication entourant le choix de soins ont été élaborés dans le cadre de cette recherche-action. // Abstract : Background : The involvement of patients, patients' kin and health care professionals in the communication surrounding the medical decision making process must be improved to insure health care quality. Objectives : The objective of this research was to describe how the communication between a patient, his kin and his health professionals could be improved in regards to the medical decision making process for severe illnesses. Following an action research perspective, this project also aimed to develop an intervention to facilitate this process. Method : Two rounds of four group interviews were conducted with professionals from a regional health center in northern Quebec (Centre de sante et de services sociaux de Rouyn-Noranda: CSSSRN) between 2009 and 2010. The groups represented teams from (a) the intensive care unit and the emergency room, (b) medical and surgical wards, (c) long term care and rehabilitation, (d) home care and specialized outpatient clinics. The transcripts from the first round of interviews were submitted to a thematic analysis while the ones from the second round were submitted to an analytical questioning. Results : Twenty-seven and 29 participants representing 9 health care professions participated to the interviews of the first and second rounds respectively. The first round of interviews revealed that all the health care professionals are involved in the communication associated with the medical decision making process. Strategies used by professionals to improve the participation of patients and patients' kin in the process of choosing care were identified, as well as relevant means of communication used by the professionals amongst themselves. The results inspired the development of a multidisciplinary communication tool and the revision of the decision-making tool used in the health center where the research was conducted. The second round of interviews demonstrated that a multidisciplinary communication tool could allow a better acknowledgement of the roles played by non-doctor professionals, and that a decision-making tool with goals of care rather than levels of care could improve the participation of patients, patients' kin and health care professionals in the choice of care. Finally, a reference tool guiding the communication surrounding the medical decision making process was suggested. Conclusion : This action research project allowed a better understanding of the roles played by non-doctor professionals in the communication surrounding the medical decision making process, and suggested solutions to improve the impact and the legitimacy of their involvement. Finally, three tools to improve the communication around choices of care were developed.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette thèse a pour objectif de vérifier l'effet de la participation (plus ou moins active) d'un consommateur à une communauté virtuelle de marque (CVM) sur son intention de fidélité envers cette marque. Le concept d’engagement est introduit comme médiateur de la relation participation à la CVM / fidélité à la marque. Etant donné les spécificités des communautés, deux types d’engagements sont pris en compte : l'engagement envers la marque et l'engagement envers la communauté. Une étude quantitative menée auprès des membres d’une communauté de la marque Nikon permet d’analyser 1065 réponses par un modèle d'équations structurelles. Les résultats de l’étude soutiennent l'existence d’une double médiation successive de l'engagement envers la communauté puis de l'engagement envers la marque dans la relation entre le niveau de participation à la CVM et la fidélité à la marque. Trois variables modératrices sont en outre identifiées : l'ancienneté de l'appartenance à la communauté, le niveau d'expertise envers la catégorie de produit et le type de bénéfice recherché par les membres de la CVMThis thesis aims at verifying the effect of consumer's participation level to a virtual brand community on his brand loyalty intentions. The concept of commitment is introduced as mediator of the relationship between consumer participation to virtual brand community and brand loyalty intentions. Given the particularity of communities, two aspects of commitment are considered: brand commitment and community commitment. The theoretical model is tested on a sample of 1065 participants to a virtual community of "Nikon France". Results support a double and successive mediation of community commitment and of brand commitment in the relationship between community participation and brand loyalty. Moreover, three moderators are identified in the model: membership length, expertise and community participation benefits

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Notre recherche s’intéresse aux déterminants affectifs et axiologiques du choix d’investissement en equity crowdfunding. Nous défendons la thèse d’un choix de projets déterminé en partie par les valeurs et l’affectif de l’investisseur individuel. Notre revue de littérature est transversale à plusieurs champs des sciences sociales. Ainsi, le cadre théorique établi articule finance, marketing, GRH et psychologie. Un modèle explicatif par équations structurelles est proposé puis testé empiriquement grâce aux données d’une expérimentation de laboratoire. Nos résultats confirment que les valeurs ainsi que l’intérêt pour le projet, une variable affective, ont un effet sensible dans les choix des investisseurs et dominent le jugement analytique en l’absence d’interactions sociales réelles et virtuelles. Une théorie originale est proposée pour améliorer la compréhension du phénomène étudié, au-delà des apports de la théorie du signal. Cette théorie, le matching affectif, personnalise les comportements et offre un prisme de lecture reposant sur la congruence entre caractéristiques du projet et préférences de l’investisseur. Sa mise en œuvre par un modèle dérivant du modèle explicatif associé à une mesure de similarité ad hoc produit des résultats prédictifs encourageants. Notre travail se termine par un ensemble de suggestions managériales découlant de nos conclusionsOur research focuses on the emotional and axiological determinants of investment choice in equity crowdfunding. We defend the thesis of a projects choice determined in part by the values and emotions of the individual investor. Our literature review is transversal to several fields of social sciences. Thus, the established theoretical framework articulates finance, marketing, HRM and psychology. An explanatory model using structural equations is proposed and tested empirically using data from a laboratory experiment. Our results confirm that values and interest in the project, an affective variable, have a significant effect on investor choices and dominate analytical judgment in the absence of real and virtual social interactions. An original theory is proposed to improve the understanding of the studied phenomenon, beyond the contributions of the signal theory. This theory, emotional matching, personalizes behaviors and offers a prism of reading based on the congruence between characteristics of the project and investor preferences. Its implementation by a model derived from the explanatory model associated with an ad hoc similarity measure produces encouraging predictive results. Our work ends with a set of managerial suggestions arising from our findings

En 2012 puis en 2014, d’importants changements à la Loi électorale québécoise ont transformé la façon par laquelle les partis politiques se financent au Québec. La contribution maximale individuelle a été radicalement réduite et le financement public des partis politiques a été augmenté. Cette étude de cas quantitative tente de mesurer l’impact de cette réforme sur la participation électorale, les dépenses des partis en circonscription et l’offre politique partisane. À l’aide de la régression linéaire multiple, nous montrons qu’un effet sur la participation peut être possible. Nous montrons également que la réforme ne semble pas avoir affecté la façon par laquelle les partis se financent en circonscription.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette thèse se compose de quatre essais indépendants, dont deux chapitres co-écrits. Trois essais sont consacrés à l'étude des comportements parentaux d'implication scolaire et aux conséquences de ces comportements pour l'éducation des enfants. Le premier essai illustre les apports et les limites de la littérature économique et non-économique existante pour la compréhension des déterminants, modalités, et conséquences pour les enfants de l'implication parentale. Le deuxième essai utilise une expérience contrôlée pour prouver qu'il est possible d'augmenter sensiblement l'effort scolaire de familles dans les écoles des quartiers défavorisés, et que ce surcroît d'implication par une partie des parents conduit à une amélioration sensible de la scolarité de l'ensemble des enfants, notamment en termes de comportement. Une expérience randomisée est encore au cœur du troisième essai ; ce chapitre montre l'existence d'effets d'entraînement entre parents pour le choix de l'effort investi dans la participation scolaire. Les résultats des deux expériences supportent l'existence d'importants effets de levier pour une politique volontariste d'implication des parents à l'école. Le quatrième essai se situe dans une problématique à part. L'éducation y est vue comme un bien qui occupe une place centrale dans la relation d'emploi. Ce chapitre décrit les erreurs des employeurs dans la perception des diplômes. Les conséquences de ces erreurs pour le salarié sont discutées. Les salariés qui bénéficient d'une sur-déclaration par l'employeur de leur niveau de diplôme ont des salaires sensiblement supérieurs, alors que la pénalité associée à une sous-déclaration est faible ou inexistanteThis thesis consists of four stand-alone essays in 'the field of the economics of education. The first part comprises three chapters which analyse the interactions of parents and schools. The central questions here are: Why do parents become involved in their children's school-education? Can and should schools increase the levels of involvement by parents? Who benefits, and to what extent, from parental involvement programmes? To answer these policy-relevant questions empirically, l draw on a Iiterature review and on results from two randomized control trials which l helped design and run. These experiments prove that schools are able to increase parents' awareness and that parental inputs have strong effects on pupil behavior. Result also show the existence of important positive spillover effects beyond the targeted populations. Part II explores how employers perceive the education a qualifications of their workers. According to human capital theories, the output of education is a productive asset, a bundle of knowledge and skills to which economists refer as "human capital". In contrast, screening theories of education view information about the quality of workers (about their skills, knowledge, and attitudes) as the primary product of educational services. In this part, l show that employers' information about employees' educational. Qualifications is highly noisy. This suggests that the information contained in educational certificates is often of limited interest to employers

Les objectifs sont d’évaluer l’efficience (survie, qualité de vie et le coût) des deux techniques de dialyse de rechercher les déterminants qui orientent le choix vers l’une ou l’autre des techniques de dialyse et d’évaluer le parcours de soins des patients en dialyse. La première partie de ce travail de thèse à analyser les données de la région PACA issues du registre REIN. Cette analyse est descriptive et porte sur le profil des patients démarrent un traitement en dialyse (HD et DP). Une analyse de survie a été réalisée selon la technique de dialyse initiale et selon le parcours de soins. Dans une seconde partie, le coût et sur la qualité de vie ont été évalués selon les différentes techniques de dialyse afin d’évaluer l’efficience de ces modalités à partir des données recueillies dans un PHRC régional. Dans une troisième partie, les facteurs liés au choix initial de la technique de dialyse, DP ou HD ont été recherchés. Ce travail a fait l’objet d’une étude ciblée auprès de patients et de néphrologues au sein de 4 structures de dialyse. La survie et la qualité de vie des patients sont similaires entre HD et DP. Le changement de technique, de la DP vers l'HD, a un impact positif sur la survie. La DP est moins coûteuse que l’HD. Les contre-indications médicales à la DP ne concernaient que 26,7% des patients inclus. En absence de contre-indications, la préférence du patient et les pratiques des professionnelles (information et pratiques de centre) sont les deux principaux facteurs liés au choix initial de la technique de dialyse, notamment par la DP. Une meilleure information pourrait contribuer à augmenter le choix de la DPThe objectives of this work were to assess and compare the efficiency (survival, quality of life and cost) of patients initially treated with peritoneal dialysis (PD) or hemodialysis (HD), to search determinants that guide the initial choice towards either dialysis techniques and to assess the trajectory between dialysis modalities. The first part of this thesis was to analyze the database, from the PACA region (2004 – 2014), issue from the French REIN registry. This analysis was descriptive and focused to analyze main characteristics and outcome (survival) of dialysis patients (initial dialysis and switching) and to identify risk factors. The second part of this thesis was to measure and compare dialysis patient quality of life and health’s care costs between dialysis modalities (HD and PD). Database was issued from PHRC. The third part was to search the factors related to the initial choice of dialysis technique, PD or HD. This work was the subject of a targeted survey of patients and neurologists in a dialysis structure. The survival and the quality of life were similar between hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. Switching to HD may improve positively the survival compared to those who remained on PD, whereas, switching to PD was not. The DP is less expensive than HD. Medical contraindications to the PD were for 26.7%. In the absence of contraindications, patient preference and professional practices (information and practical center) are the two main factors related to the initial choice of dialysis technique, in particular to choice of PD. Better information could help to increase the choice of DP

Take choir members of Singing Singer in Taichung as subjects, the study aims to investigate their motivation for leisure participation, obstruction to leisure participation as well as the relationship between the leisure participation and the obstruction. Data is collected by means of in-depth interview. Eight choir members of Singing Singer in Taichung are selected as subjects due to their major in music. The result of the research shows: (i) Motivation for leisure participation: interpersonal relationship is the only one factor included in all the participants. An interest in and an capability of singing are also two factors for leisure participation among the subjects. (ii) Obstruction to leisure participation: the accessibility of the destination as well as the time spent in the chore are two main factors for a breakdown in leisure participation. Time as well as work are factors difficult to overcome and easily result in obstruction. Other factors such as money, family and work are three factors also cause obstruction for part of the subjects. (iii) The relationship between the leisure participation and the obstruction is shown in three ways: (1) the obstruction factors such as time, work, money, tiredness and climate has a significant effect in the leisure participation; (2) health condition has an insignificant effect in the leisure participation; (3) the obstruction factors such as family, traffic and pressure has a significant effect in the leisure participation only for some subjects.

This study aimed to explore the participatory attitude of Taiwanese Presbyterian Church choir members. Researcher reviewed relevant academic discourses and refereed to the outcomes of pre-interviews with 21 choir members. In addition, a self-designed questionnaire was carried out to investigate the opinions of choir members. All data was collected from 124 churches and 1150 members with 735 responded questionnaire, and analyzed by software SPSS 14.0 for Windows. Analysis methods used through this software included frequency distribution, percentage, mean, standard deviation, T test and One-way ANOVA. Finally, quantitative and qualitative data were compared and conclusions were drawn from the survey result and documentary analysis: I. All the Taiwan Presbyterian Church choir members in different positions retain positive and active participatory attitude. II. The participation attitudes of the Taiwanese Presbyterian Church choir member vary by gender, religious belief, age, the length of becoming a Christian, the length of joining church choir, and different positions in choir. A. The primary factor determining the participation attitude is religious belief. B. The length of becoming a Christian has a considerable impact on the participation attitude. C. The length of joining church choir is positively correlative with the participation attitude. D. Senior members retain higher participation attitude than the younger. E. In terms of different positions in choir, the conductor has better participation attitude than the persons in other positions. F. Female members in the church choir are statistically significant higher than male members concerning the participation attitude. III. With respect to the viewpoints on current choir situation of the church choir members: A. Age has been identified as the important factor in determining viewpoints. B. Other variables such as gender, religious belief, the length of becoming a Christian, the length of joining church choir and different positions in the choir make no differences in terms of statistical significance. Finally, according to the research findings, some suggestions are proposed for the Taiwanese Presbyterian Church and relevant institutions, church choir members and the later researchers.

In this study, researcher collected the data through acoustic analysis, aerodynamic analysis and MC-VAPP scales of the subjects, compared the differences in the voice function and voice quality of life between 63 young women, aged between 20 and 29, with and without choir participation. Independent Samples t Test was used to analyze the differences between the two young-women groups. The results showed that choral group had significant lower levels of Noise-to-Harmonic ratio, significant higher levels of mean speaking fundamental frequency and highest speaking fundamental frequency, and significant lower levels of Mandarin Chinese Version of the Voice Activity and Participation Profile (MC-VAPP) score regarding ”the effect of speaking in quiet environments”. On the other hand, the average of jitter and shimmer of choir group were both lower than that of non-choir group, but there were no significant differences between the two groups. The average of lowest speaking fundamental frequency, speaking fundamental frequency range, speaking fundamental frequency standard deviation of choir group were all higher than non-choir group, but there were no significant differences between the two groups. There were no significant differences of mean speaking intensity, highest speaking intensity, lowest speaking intensity, speaking intensity range, speaking intensity standard deviation between two groups. This study showed that choir participation can maintain the voice stability of young women and increase the sensitivity of young women to the change in their voice, avoiding the occurrence of further voice damage. The above results can provide as a reference for clinicians in planning voice care programs.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Fourteen years into democracy, South Africans yet need to transform into a truly united society. Transformation entails meaningful change and requires new mindsets, behaviours and worldviews. In this country, such change hinges on interaction and communication between all South Africans to facilitate insight into the unfamiliar lifeworlds and beliefs of others. In 2005 Dr. Steve Booysen, Group Chief Executive of the Absa Group, initiated an internal choir festival as a platform for social interaction and team building of staff across all cultures, age groups and post levels in the bank. This happened in the process of the Barclays Bank investment of billions of rands that would translate to its controlling share in Absa. Recognising the merge as a potential threat to the morale of the Absa work force, Booysen envisaged the choir project as a means to support staff during this phase of transformation in the bank. This study links theories relating to organisational development and the inherent power in music and musicking for positive change. The questionnaire (administered in three interventions between 2006 and 2008) was the primary instrument for obtaining data for this study. Absa’s choir project (the first of its kind in South Africa and possibly elsewhere in the world) offers unique possibilities for investigating the positive effects of musicking, and in particular choral singing, within a corporate environment. For optimal functioning, societies rely on their citizens to trust each other and share a civic culture. With the exception of the Indian community, choral singing is a practised tradition across all cultures in South Africa and thus presents a possible vehicle to promote healing and nation building in post-Apartheid South Africa. Genuine communication between citizens from all cultural backgrounds could help liberate South Africans of superficial prejudgments of each other. Where the inability to speak the others’ language(s) inhibits authentic communication, choral singing proffers unique opportunities for shared communicative experiences. Should choral singing prove to be an appropriate key to unlock such experiences for South Africa of differing cultural and language backgrounds, then choral singing is of great value to this society.Thesis (DMus)--University of Pretoria, 2010.

Christian music has played an important role the development of Taiwan music history, especially in the areas of contemporary Western music. Through the introduction of Christian missionaries in the 19th Century as well as advocate of western music during the period of Japanese colonization, Christian music has had profound influence to Taiwan society since. However, through out past one hundred more years, the transformation of political, social, economic, and cultural environment, Christian music is no longer in a leading role of the music society in Taiwan, and Taipei YMCA Oratorio Choir has testified the evolution of the history. The main purposes of this research are to understand the history of development of the oldest Choir, to investigate its relationship with the society of Taiwan as well as to know how it impacted the development of the Taiwanese music society. Since its establishment in 1947, Taipei YMCA Oratorio Choir has involved in society music activities and has had weekly practices since then. Of its public performances, the Christmas charity performance of “Messiah” is the most important and well-known activity to people. Being the 57th year performance of “Messiah” in this year of 2003, Taipei YMCA Oratorio Choir earned its reputation as the “Messiah” Oratorio Choir in Taiwan. Yet, another main topic of this research is to disclose the evolution of functions and the role of the Choir under the transformation of music society. Through collection of historical data, interviews with the Choir members, and recording of practices, the thesis has re-exhibited the contribution of those senior members to Taiwan’s music society development. Taipei YMCA Oratorio Choir was not only one of the most important Christian Choir groups but also a key pusher to the development of social music activities. However, viewing from the missions of the Choir: evangelism, charity in music concert, and sacred music promotion, the importance of Taipei YMCA Oratorio Choir in the social community in such functions has diminished during recent years. Some critics are made and suggestions are proposed in terms of music talent development, sacred music education, compositions been performed, and forms of Messiah charity music concert.

Abstract Singing is the innate instinct of everyone and the basis of music education. The form of chorus is the most suitable for the choice of senior citizens. For the age and the lack of self-confidence and lack of self-confidence, they dare not go on stage alone; The teacher said: To teach the senior citizens, the scores will be revised to be simple, easy to understand and easy to learn. The senior choir is the easiest and most direct way for the seniors to participate in music learning. This study aims to explore the motivations of the senior citizens to participate in the choir, the changes in their physical and mental health after participation, and the promotion and management of the Muzha Agricultural Association Choir. Participants in the study participated in the "Muji Agricultural Association Choir" members over the age of 55, and first distributed questionnaires to study the subjects, and then interviewed 13 members who had participated in the delegation for more than 10 years in a qualitative semi-structured manner to answer this study. The question to be answered. After the whole process is translated into verbatim manuscripts by means of recording, the results are summarized and analyzed. The conclusions are summarized as follows: Research on the motivation of senior citizens to participate in choir The motivations of the senior citizens to participate in the choir can be divided into four categories, namely (1) interested in the chorus learning process; (2) wanting to increase the singing art in life; (3) trying to improve their literacy; (4) I want to find something to do for my free time. How do the seniors get registration information? The researchers analyzed and summarized the questionnaire data analysis and the in-depth interviews with the farmers homework class, which were (1) introduced by relatives and friends; (2) formerly a housekeeping class member; (3) obtained a choir group when participating in the peasant association activities. Class information. What is the impact on the body and mind after participating in the choir study? After the choir participates in the choir, the influence on the body and mind is divided into five categories, namely (1) feeling that inner feelings can be released through music; (2) feeling that life has goals and more meaningful; (3) feeling that the pressure is very large Release; (4) feel that negative emotions are released through music; (5) feel that anxiety can be reduced through music. Finally, based on the research conclusions and recommendations, the researchers made recommendations to the Muzha Farmers Home Economics Class, senior citizens, senior citizens and future researchers as a reference for promoting music education and lifelong learning.

Compared to other kinds of caregivers, caregivers of persons living with dementia (PwD) are at higher risk of experiencing social isolation, emotional distress, and depressive symptoms which can adversely affect their psychosocial well-being. This study uses longitudinal data and multilevel modeling to explore trajectories of change over the course of a choir intervention in affect, social engagement, and caregiver distress. A multilevel coupled model of change was employed to examine two time-varying associations within-person and between-persons: (1) the association between social activities and affect, and (2) the association between caregiver distress and affect. The social activities coupling model (between-persons) found that increasing engagement in social activities was significantly associated with an increase in positive affect. The caregiver distress coupling model (within-person) found that higher levels of caregiver distress were significantly associated with decreases in positive affect. The caregiver distress coupling model (between-persons) found that higher levels of caregiver distress were significantly associated with increases in negative affect. The choir intervention may have a positive impact on caregiver psychosocial well-being but there are many factors to consider (i.e., dementia trajectory) that influence psychosocial well-being. This study advances our understanding of the impact of an arts-based intervention (i.e., community-based choir) as a source of support for caregivers of PwD. Findings can inform efforts to develop community art-based programs to support family caregivers.Graduate

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose: To determine whether choir singing compared to reminiscence could reduce depression in people with dementia. Methods: A randomised controlled mixed methods trial was conducted with residents of an aged care facility between May and August 2007. Qualitative data was examined for related themes which enhanced the quantitative analysis. There were 41 participants (age range: 74-93 years) all with a medical diagnosis of dementia. Informed consent and ethical approval was obtained. Participants were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Choir Therapy, Reminiscence Therapy or Control Group. The study was single blind as the researcher conducted the sessions with research assistants. Fifteen sessions of choir and reminiscence therapies were conducted twice weekly. Symptoms of depression were measured before and after the treatments using the Cornell Scale for Depression in Dementia. The Mini Mental State Examination was used to gauge the levels of cognitive functioning at baseline. Participants’ responses to the therapy sessions were concurrently collected and analysed for related themes as qualitative data. Results: Average depression scores declined significantly for all groups over time. When the choir group was compared with the control group over time, there was a significant difference (p= 0.027), indicating that the choir group was more effective in reducing depression over time. The reminiscence group scores were also compared with the control group scores over time, revealing a reduction in depression which was less significant than the choir group scores (p = 0.111). Themes from the qualitative data showed improvements in the following areas: safety and security needs; increased communication and social interaction; increased positive moods; increased motivation; and, expanded attention spans. Conclusion: All three groups showed decreased depression with the greatest fall in the choir group. This indicated that choir when compared to reminiscence has higher efficacy in mitigating symptoms of depression in people with dementia. Both therapies were shown to be effective and safe.M.Arts (Hons.)

This research project was sparked by the observed patterns of participation in the schools choral eisteddfodau organised by the South African Schools Choral Eisteddfod (SASCE) and the Bosveld Kunstefees by schools in the Polokwane cluster of Circuits, Capricorn District of Limpopo Province - South Africa. The projected image of participation was that participation was divided along racial lines, whereby SASCE events were attended by blacks, found at township and rural schools, whereas former Model C schools attended the Bosveld Kunstefees eisteddfodau. The study intended to reveal whether the projected racial image was founded on racism itself, after 20 years the democratic dispensation, or whether other factors such as choral aptitude, preference of choral style, and/or cultural identity in a pluralistic society influenced such participation.
Data were collected and qualitatively analysed by means of a structured questionnaire administered to school principals, choir masters/mistresses and secondary school choristers whose schools participated in either of the eisteddfodau between 2009 and 2011.
Findings and recommendations are then offered for the research questions asked, following the analysis of collected data.Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2014.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Vatican II a promu l'ecclésiologie de communion pour définir l'identité de l'Église catholique. Depuis le concile, un nombre important d'institutions ont été mises en place pour concrétiser juridiquement le modèle ecclésiologique. Les nominations d'évêques échappent à ce mouvement. Les évêques sont nommés librement par le pape et ses congrégations centrales. Ce droit de l'évêque de Rome a été reconnu officiellement dans le Code de droit canonique de 1917 seulement. Or, il existe une diversité historique et actuelle dans les pratiques de nomination, diversité qui justifie d'autres possibles en matière de processus de désignation.
Cette recherche de type praxéologique permet le dialogue et l'articulation entre sciences humaines et théologie. Elle s'intéresse à la diversité effective des modèles de nomination et à l'ecclésiologie de communion afin de proposer un processus électif fidèle à la tradition de l'Église et aux exigences actuelles d'inculturation.
De nombreux faits relatifs aux nominations épiscopales dans l'Église catholique témoignent d'une situation qui fait problème. Par exemple, le silence imposé par le représentant du Saint-Siège à la suite d'une consultation menée par les autorités diocésaines de Gatineau-Hull, sujet du premier chapitre, démontre l'attitude réfractaire de Rome face à tout type de participation populaire au processus de désignation épiscopale. Des nominations d'évêques à l'échelon international présentent une similitude avec celle de Gatineau-Hull tant par l'attitude rectiligne du Vatican que par les réactions controversées suscitées au sein des diocèses concernés. Une analyse de la position du gouvernement de Jean-Paul II vu face au monde et le rôle des évêques à l'intérieur de cette politique d'influence laisse entrevoir une direction claire : par une bureaucratie efficace et des organisations loyales, Rome s'est engagée dans une ?uvre de restauration de l'Église. L'intérêt du Saint-Siège consiste à conserver la maîtrise la plus complète possible de l'ensemble du processus de nomination car il constitue « l'arme ultime de Rome » dans son affrontement contre le modernisme.
La seconde partie s'ouvre sur un examen des origines de cette attitude du Saint-Siège. Si les Églises locales sont véritablement les artisans de leur devenir, si l'inculturation de l'Évangile doit tenir compte de la situation culturelle pour être vraie, le peuple doit pouvoir participer à certains processus décisionnels. Une incursion rapide aux sources de l'histoire du christianisme permet de constater que christologie, pneumatologie et ecclésiologie sont inséparables dans les premiers siècles. Un glissement s'est opéré ensuite vers une gestion centralisée de type monarchique. La promotion active de la collégialité épiscopale, à Vatican II, a remis à l'ordre du jour la réflexion sur les concepts de primauté, collégialité et synodalité. Enfin, l'inculturation s'ajoute à termes pour inviter l'Église à une plus grande reconnaissance des valeurs positives de la culture actuelle. Un effort dans ce sens devrait permettre d'apprécier la recherche d'une Église en fidélité avec elle-même et avec sa tradition vivante. Une certaine vision de l'inculturation confirme le bien-fondé d'une participation active du peuple, incluant les prêtres et les laïcs.
La dernière partie dresse une proposition pour l'ajustement du processus d'élection. L'option retenue privilégie la consultation du plus grand nombre, l'engagement significatif du clergé, une responsabilité accrue au chapitre diocésain, la participation plus déterminante des évêques voisins et un rôle de vigilance et d'arbitre pour Rome. L'Esprit Saint, l'Église locale, le clergé, les évêques voisins et Rome renouent donc avec le rôle que leur attribue la Tradition. Enfin, la proposition tient compte de l'esprit de la culture et valorise la manifestation d'une figure institutionnelle de l'Église cohérente avec l'ecclésiologie de communion.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ce mémoire de maîtrise s’intéresse au sujet de la citoyenneté telle que vue par treize personnalités musulmanes influentes du Québec. Ces personnes sont largement impliquées dans différentes sphères des affaires publiques, telles que religieuse, politique, communautaire, académique et économique. L’objectif de l’étude qualitative de ces entrevues de type ouvert est de comprendre comment ces personnes perçoivent leur citoyenneté et les expériences personnelles sociales qui influencent leurs visions respectives à partir de la sémantique de leur articulation de la relation de la foi musulmane avec la notion de citoyenneté. Le contenu de ces entrevues a été soumis à une analyse de discours et nous en avons ressorti « une théorie de la citoyenneté chez les musulmans du Québec » basée sur des définitions différentes de la citoyenneté : une citoyenneté qui est « à part entière » en contradiction avec une autre de « seconde zone » ou de « seconde classe », toutes les deux définies par un ensemble de droits et de devoirs. Cette logique de définition de la citoyenneté se justifie par un cumul d’identités durant la trajectoire personnelle de chacun en faisant intervenir ses priorités et ses préoccupations courantes tout en trouvant sa source d’inspiration dans l’islam. La nationalité canadienne/québécoise se complète par l’islam comme mode de vie au sein de cette définition de la citoyenneté, selon cette même logique, à l’intérieur d’une idéologie nationaliste canadienne.We are focusing on the study of citizenship as seen by a group of influential Muslim people, extensively involved in public affairs in various fields: social, religion, politics, community and academic. This group of thirteen persons has been questioned in an open interview manner about citizenship with a goal to understand how they perceive their citizenship and which social experiences influence that vision and shape their position. The qualitative analysis using a discourse analysis methodology brings out a “Muslim Quebecers theory of citizenship” based on different definitions of citizenship: a "global citizenship" that is "full" at odds with one another labeled as "second class citizenship", both defined by a set of rights and duties. This logic of definition is defined by a set of identities cumulated during their personal experience and shaped by their current priorities as social actors. It has its roots in Islam as a spiritual referential. In other cases the citizenship is defined by the completion of the local Canadian/Quebecer nationality by Islam as a lifestyle within a Canadian nationalist ideology.
