Prevalence and sequelae of self-reported and other-reported sexual abuse in adults with intellectual disability
2018
Background Sexual victimisation is an important problem that affects millions of people around the world, especially those with some kind of disability. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of self-reported and documented sexual abuse in people with mild or moderate intellectual disability and to analyse the sequelae that such experiences can have on their psychosocial health. Methods The sample consisted of 360 adults (50% men and 50% women) between 18 and 55 years of age (M = 39.87; standard deviation = 10.55). Results The prevalence of sexual abuse is 6.10% when it is self-reported (9.4% in women and 2.8% in men) and 28.6% when it is reported by professionals (27.8% in w…
Anticipatory Postural Adjustments During Gait Initiation in Stroke Patients
2019
Prior to gait initiation (GI), anticipatory postural adjustments (GI-APA) are activated in order to reorganize posture, favorably for gait. In healthy subjects, the center of pressure (CoP) is displaced backward during GI-APA, bilaterally by reducing soleus activities and activating the tibialis anterior (TA) muscles, and laterally in the direction of the leading leg, by activating hip abductors. In post-stroke hemiparetic patients, TA, soleus and hip abductor activities are impaired on the paretic side. Reduction in non-affected triceps surae activity can also be observed. These may result in a decreased ability to execute GI-APA and to generate propulsion forces during step execution. A s…
Physiotherapists’ conceptions of movement awareness– A phenomenographic study
2021
The phenomenon of movement awareness requires more attention to make it explicit in physiotherapy. The aim of this study was to explore the variation in physiotherapists’ conceptions of movement quality, focusing on movement awareness. The informants were 15 physiotherapists from a variety of physiotherapy fields. We collected data through two group interviews and used the phenomenographic method to analyze them. Four themes emerged from the data: 1) Being in contact with one’s own moving body; 2) Increased awareness of movement experiences; 3) Interrelationship between physiotherapist and patient; and 4) Better understanding of movement awareness. These themes varied by four descriptive ca…
Les étudiants de la génération Y en formation
2013
National audience; La génération Y suscite débats et questionnements au niveau pédagogique. C'est actuellement celle qui constitue la majorité des étudiants en formation paramédicale. Peu désireuse d'un enseignement dispensant uniquement des savoirs, cette génération demande que le formateur s'adapte aux étudiants pour susciter leur intérêt et donc leur engagement dans la formation. Cela passe par certaines caractéristiques générationnelles, à commencer par la relation entre le formateur et les étudiants mais aussi par le travail en groupe, l'apprentissage par essais-erreurs, ou encore l'utilisation de nouvelles technologies. Ce texte propose un éclairage sur ces différents points pour ques…
Rachats d'actions et augmentation de capital : une analyse de leur combinaison appliquée au marché français
2013
Noting that over 22% of capital increases thrown at the French financial market are made when a share repurchase program is in progress, we propose an original study of the combination of the two operations. From 50 operations for the period 1999-2006, we test if the buybacks "prepare" the market before launching the capital increase or means to change the distribution of voting rights. Our results infirm these two hypotheses and confirm rather the proposition of a fortuitous concomitance.
Activisme et proxy fight. Quand les actionnaires déclarent la guerre au management
2009
Les attentes des actionnaires minoritaires sont relativement heterogenes : les salaries ou les fournisseurs qui detiennent des actions ne sont pas uniquement preoccupes par les dividendes ou les plus-values, contrairement aux actionnaires patrimoniaux. Ces derniers, qui peuvent etre insatisfaits par certaines decisions strategiques ou operationnelles prises par les dirigeants, ont la possibilite d’agir pour proteger leurs interets, en s’engageant notamment dans une bataille de procuration. Dans cet article, les auteurs insistent sur les principales difficultes rencontrees par les actionnaires contestataires lors de ces batailles, sur les facteurs cles de succes, ainsi que sur les consequenc…
Analyse du langage et analyse des discours : quelques applications en psychologie
2020
Resume L’analyse des discours est encore peu developpee en Psychologie. Elle offre pourtant a la fois un cadre theorique precis et des methodes d’analyses variees, qui permettent de traiter de problematiques au cœur de la psychologie et des missions des psychologues. Tout discours est le fruit d’une co-construction, il integre les perceptions croisees et les dynamiques relationnelles, interindividuelles et intergroupes. Il n’y a pas de frontiere entre celui qui le produit et celui qui le recoit, l’un est dans l’autre et l’autre dans l’un. Cette conception est particulierement pertinente lorsqu’il s’agit d’analyser ce qui se deroule au cœur des rapports sociaux, quel que soit le domaine d’in…

Le déploiement d'un pilotage stratégique des coûts dans les services informatiques de deux groupes internationaux : perspective instrumentale et anal…
2011
This article analyses the strategic cost management stream with an instrumental point of view and two case studies. We try to show in what extend the Activity-based Costing developments could be included in a strategic approach of the management accounting and to test if the ABC is a relevant tool to drive the strategy. The first part synthesizes the strategic cost management developments which try to improve the Activity-based Costing method. 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 t…
The role of emotion dysregulation in adolescents’ problematic smartphone use: A study on adolescent/parents triads
2021
Abstract The pervasive use of mobile phones among adolescents has led researchers to evaluate the role of parental characteristics in connection with their children's problematic smartphone use (PSU). The present study involved mother/father/adolescent triads and aimed to test a model examining the role of both parents' and adolescents' emotion dysregulation (ED) in predicting children's PSU. Two hundred and fifty-two adolescent (57.5% females; M age = 13.54, SD = 0.73)/mother (M age = 43.92, SD = 4.46)/father (M age = 47.60, SD = 5.10) triads provided measures of PSU and ED. Results from path model showed that, after controlling for adolescents' age and gender as well as for parents' age a…
