Socialisation scolaire et projets d'avenir chez les lycéens et les lycéennes : la "causalité du probable" et son interprétation sociologique

1995

International audience; Ce texte présente une analyse des projets de vie de jeunes gens et jeunes filles de première. La section fréquentée, mais aussi l'avenir perçu comme le plus probable, confinent les choix dans les limites de ce qui est possible vu les contraintes structurelles, notamment la division du travail entre les deux sexes. Les différents modèles théoriques mis en oeuvre par les sociologues pour rendre compte de ce jeu entre "choix" individuels et contraintes structurelles sont ensuite présentées. L'hypothèse est faite d'une certaine convergence entre modèles, au sein de la sociologie mais aussi entre sociologues et psychologues.

Neck and Shoulder Muscle Activation Among Experienced and Inexperienced Pilots in +Gz Exposure

2017

Background The aim of the present study was to compare differences in electromyography (EMG) activation of the neck and shoulder muscles between groups of inexperienced and experienced pilots during controlled +Gz exposure in a centrifuge. Methods The subjects were volunteer cadets (inexperienced group) and lieutenants (experienced group) undergoing their first centrifuge training. The first group did not have any high performance aircraft (HPA) experience, while the latter one had a 1-yr experience of intense flying of HPA. During the centrifuge run, EMG activity was recorded from the left and right shoulder, neck flexor, and neck extensor muscles. Results The pilots without HPA experience…

Sense of coherence and burnout in nursing home workers during the COVID‐19 pandemic in Spain

2021

Abstract Care staff in nursing homes work in a challenging environment, and the COVID‐19 pandemic has exacerbated those challenges in an unprecedented way. On the other hand, the sense of coherence (SOC) is a competence that could help these professionals perceive the situation as understandable, manageable and meaningful. This study aims to analyse the extent to which potential risk and protective factors against burnout have affected nursing home workers during the COVID‐19 pandemic and to assess the contribution of these factors to their burnout. Three hundred forty professionals who worked in nursing homes in Spain completed a survey and reported on their sociodemographic characteristic…

Performance assessment to investigate the domain specificity of instructional skills among pre‐service and in‐service teachers of mathematics and eco…

2019

Background Key elements of instructional quality include the teacher's ability to immediately react in domain‐specific classroom situations. Such skills – defined as action‐related skills – can only be validly assessed using authentic representations of real‐life teaching practice. However, research has not yet explained how teachers apply domain‐specific knowledge for teaching and to what extent action‐related skills are transferable from one domain to another. Aims Our study aims to examine (1) the relationship between action‐related skills, content knowledge, and pedagogical content knowledge, and (2) the domain specificity of action‐related skills of (prospective) teachers in the two do…

Le dialogue avec les parties prenantes dans l’exercice de la RSE : caractéristiques clés pour une prise de parole collective et effective

2021

National audience; Des appels à un changement radicale des modes de production accentuent la responsabilité sociale des entreprises. Cette notion de responsabilité longtemps affiliée à la satisfaction des seuls actionnaires est aujourd’hui tournée vers d’autres acteurs tout aussi exigeants, au-delà des frontières de l’entreprise. La responsabilité sociale de l’entreprise se traduit par une pression omniprésente qui contraint les entreprises à s’adapter. Cette adaptation passe par l’intégration des préoccupations liées à l’environnement, aux questions sociales et sociétales dans la conduite de leurs activités (Gond et ali., 2011 : 121). Elle passe aussi par la prise en compte de l’ensemble d…

In the first part, we describe them using the Strategic Management Accounting stream, with a link with cost management and ABC. The second part exposes a taxonomy of the reasons why using the ABC method. In a third part, we confront our developments to th…

Qualitative and Quantitative Study on Videotaped Data for Fire Emergency Response

2016

During search and rescue (SAR) operations, information plays a significant role in empowering the emergency response personnel at various levels. But, understanding the information which is being shared between/among emergency personnel is necessary to improve current coordination systems. However, such systems can help the first responders to gain/increase their situational awareness and coordination. Moreover, there is still the lack of automatic and intelligent tools that can contribute to structure, categorize, and visualize the communicated content that occur during SAR operations. Therefore, in this paper, we present the concept of such analysis by using the qualitative methodology an…
