  • Uma pesquisa sobre processos (pós) divórcio em Portugal
    EdUECE - Editora da Universidade Estadual do Ceará, 2020
    Co-Authors: Silva, Manuel Carlos, Jorge, Ana Reis, Queiroz Aleksandra
    Abstract:

    The communication intended to be submitted is based on some preliminary results of the project “(Des) gender equality at work and private life: the laws of social practices” (PTDC/SEDE/72257/2006) and the PhD project of one of the authors of this communication entitled “gender inequalities: processes of marital disruption and subsequent protection of children” (SFRH/ BD/41950/2007). This project is part of the Global Hypothesis that the forms of gender inequality and domination, although tax mechanisms macro-economic and institutional reproduce also the micro level (family, business, public and private institutions), implying some and several other variables, namely the presence / absence of a certain degree of power available (empowerment) on resources and rewards for the social actors. Imbricando the concepts of class and gender in a critical combination of perspectives (neo) Marxist, Weberian, and Foucauldian-symbolic interactionist but having as a theoretical background a feminist approach to multi-dimensional, cross methodologies of quantitative and qualitative information in order to produce new empirical knowledge and theoretical and analytical regarding the administration of justice in cases of divorce and parental regulation. Given the tensions and strategies that involve such processes, this paper focuses on the analysis of official statistics collected and judgments in Family and Juvenile Courts of municipalities in the district of Braga.A comunicação que se pretende apresentar tem por base alguns resultados preliminares do projecto “(Des)igualdades de género no trabalho e na vida privada: das leis às práticas sociais” (PTDC/SEDE/72257/2006), bem como do projecto de doutoramento de uma das autoras desta comunicação intitulado “Desigualdades de género: processos de ruptura conjugal e subsequente tutela das crianças” (SFRH/BD/41950/2007). Este projecto parte da hipótese Global de que as formas de desigualdade e dominação de género, embora tributárias de mecanismos macro-económicos e institucionais, reproduzem-se também a nível micro (família, empresa, instituições públicas e privadas), implicando umas e outras diversas variáveis, designadamente a presença/ausência de determinado grau de poder de disposição (empowerment) sobre recursos e recompensas por parte dos actores sociais. Imbricando os conceitos de classe e género, numa combinação crítica das perspectivas (neo) marxista, weberiana, foucaultiana e interaccionista-simbólica mas tendo como pano teórico de fundo uma abordagem feminista pluridimensional, cruzam-se metodologias de ordem quantitativa e qualitativa no sentido de produzir novos conhecimentos empíricos e teórico-analíticos relativamente à administração da justiça nos processos de divórcio e regulação do poder paternal. Atendendo às tensões e estratégias que envolvem tais processos, esta comunicação incide na análise de estatísticas oficiais e sentenças judiciais recolhidas em Tribunais de Família e Menores em concelhos do distrito de Braga

  • Patologia per amiant a la comarca del Vallès Occidental (Barcelona)
    Universitat de Barcelona, 2019
    Co-Authors: Tarrés Olivella Josep
    Abstract:

    INTRODUCCIÓ: L’amiant o asbest es un mineral que ha estat molt utilitzat per la industria de l’estat espanyol durant el segle XX, la inhalació d’aquest silicat pot provocar patologia pleuropulmonar a Cerdanyola del Vallès, comarca del Vallès Occidental de la província de Barcelona es va instal·lar i va estar en funcionament durant 90 anys la major fabrica del país de fibrociment, del que l’amiant és un dels principals components. OBJECTIU: L’objectiu principal ha estat valorar si l’activitat industrial d’aquesta fàbrica de fibrociment ha condicionat l’estat de salut de les poblacions properes. Altres objectius han estat elaborar un protocol d’estudi que fos d’utilitat per a futurs treballs i contribuir a establir els factors determinants de la distribució dels mesoteliomes pleurals d’origen ambiental en aquesta comarca. MÈTODE: Aquesta memòria de tesi s’estructura mitjançant l’anàlisi de dos articles prèviament publicats en revistes científiques indexades. RESULTATS: En la primera publicació s’ha posat de manifest que davant de la presencia d’un focus emissor de fibres d’amiant que actua com agent contaminador, la distància i els factors meteorològics locals són els determinants de la distribució dels pacients afectats de mesotelioma pleural d’origen ambiental. En la segona publicació cal significar què es presenta un protocol d’estudi de les patologies per amiant i que aquest, constitueix una eina per aprofundir en la investigació d’aquestes afeccions. CONCLUSIONS: La conclusió general és que els resultats exposats confirmen la hipòtesi Global de que l’activitat de la fàbrica de fibrociment ha condicionat l’estat de salut dels habitants de la comarca, no tant sols dels treballadors de la factoria sinó també dels convivents amb treballadors i també dels ciutadans que residien a prop de la mateixa. En aquest últim grup de exposats les conclusions han estat què la distancia del seu domicili al focus emissor i les característiques dels vents locals (direcció i intensitat) tenen un marcat impacte en el risc de desenvolupar un mesotelioma d’origen ambiental. Del segon article la conclusió es de que ara disposem d’un protocol d’estudi científic què és podrà utilitzar per a futurs treballs de investigació.INTRODUCTION; Asbestos or asbestos is a mineral that has been widely used by industry in Spain during the 20th century, the inhalation of this silicate can cause pleuropulmonary disease in Cerdanyola del Vallès, the region of the Vallès Occidental in the province of Barcelona It was installed and was operating for 90 years the largest factory in the country of cement, of which asbestos is one of the main components. OBJECTIVE: The main objective was to assess whether the industrial activity of this fibrocement factory has conditioned the health status of nearby populations. Other objectives have been to elaborate a study protocol that would be useful for future work and contribute to establishing the determinants of the distribution of pleural mesotheliomas of environmental origin in this region. METHOD: This thesis report is structured through the analysis of two articles previously published in indexed scientific journals. RESULTS: In the first publication it has been shown that in view of the presence of an asbestos-emitting spotlight that acts as a contaminating agent, distance and local weather factors are the determinants of the distribution of affected patients of pleural mesothelioma of environmental origin. In the second publication, it is necessary to indicate what is presented as a protocol for the study of pathologies for asbestos, and that this is a tool to deepen in the investigation of these conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The general conclusion is that the results shown confirm the Global Hypothesis that the activity of the fibrocement factory has conditioned the state of health of the inhabitants of the region, not only of the workers of the factory but also of the coexistence with workers and also of the citizens who resided near it. In the latter group of exposures, the conclusions have been that the distance from home to the emitting focus and the characteristics of local winds (direction and intensity) have a marked impact on the risk of developing mesothelioma of environmental origin. From the second article, the conclusion is that we now have a scientific study protocol which can be used for future research work

  • An omnibus test for the Global null Hypothesis.
    Statistical methods in medical research, 2018
    Co-Authors: Andreas Futschik, Thomas Taus, Sonja Zehetmayer
    Abstract:

    Global Hypothesis tests are a useful tool in the context of clinical trials, genetic studies, or meta-analyses, when researchers are not interested in testing individual hypotheses, but in testing whether none of the hypotheses is false. There are several possibilities how to test the Global null Hypothesis when the individual null hypotheses are independent. If it is assumed that many of the individual null hypotheses are false, combination tests have been recommended to maximize power. If, however, it is assumed that only one or a few null hypotheses are false, Global tests based on individual test statistics are more powerful (e.g. Bonferroni or Simes test). However, usually there is no a priori knowledge on the number of false individual null hypotheses. We therefore propose an omnibus test based on cumulative sums of the transformed p-values. We show that this test yields an impressive overall performance. The proposed method is implemented in an R-package called omnibus.

  • a statistical test for host parasite coevolution
    Systematic Biology, 2002
    Co-Authors: Pierre Legendre, Yves Desdevises, Eric Bazin
    Abstract:

    A new method, ParaFit, has been developed to test the signiecance of a Global Hypothesis of coevolution between parasites and their hosts. Individual host-parasite association links can also be tested. The test statistics are functions of the host and parasite phylogenetic trees and of the set of host-parasite association links. Numerical simulations are used to show that the method has correct rate oftypeI error and good power exceptunder extreme errorconditions. An application to real data (pocket gophers and chewing lice) is presented. (Coevolution; fourth-corner statistic; host-parasite; permutation test; phylogenetic analysis; power analysis; simulations; statistical test.)
