The Authors. Licensee: AOSIS. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution License. Introduction The focal role in establishing a therapeutic relationship between allopathic medicine practitioners (AMPs) and patients is of effective communication between the two (Pasca 2020). The lack of good communication between AMPs and patients during consultations can discourage disclosure. Therefore, AMPs must have good verbal and nonverbal communication skills to interact with patients. These include active listening, enquiring, communicating, and inspiring others to speak (Jahan & Siddiqui 2019). This is also true for patients who use both traditional medicine (TM) and allopathic medicine (AM) (Gall et al. 2019). When working with various patients, cross-cultural communication, which is part of cultural competence, is frequently required (Jahan & Siddiqui 2019). To prevent communication breakdowns between patients who use TM and AMPs, AMPs must adapt their consultation communication to the patient’s specific requirements. According to a recent study, patients who use both TM and AM may not disclose their use of TM because of poor communication between patients and AMPs, a lack of awareness of the potential interaction between TM and AM, and AMPs incorrectly judging the use of TM (Agarwal 2020). Allopathic medicine practitioners are more likely to overlook serious health issues caused by the negative interaction of TM and AM, as well as a breakdown in the connection between patients (who use both TM and AM) and AMPs, because of a lack of proper communication (Bauer & Guerra 2014). Studies suggest that AMPs must probe patients to encourage disclosure and increase the rate of disclosure of TM use (Thandar et al. 2019; Van der Geest & Hardon 2006). Background: A pertinent issue impacting patient treatment outcomes is the nondisclosure of traditional medicine (TM) use to Allopathic medicine practitioners (AMPs). For years, TM has been a controversial practice, with patients often using it alongside allopathic medicine without disclosing their use. It is imperitive to learn and understand the experiences of AMPs regarding the disclosure of TM use in Gauteng province to enable them to provide the best possible treatment outcomes for patients who use TM. Aim: This study aimed to explore the experiences of AMPs regarding non-disclosure of TM use in Gauteng province. Setting: This study was conducted in four district hospitals where outpatient care and services are rendered in Gauteng Province. Methods: An interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA) design was followed. Fourteen purposefully sampled AMPs participated in face-to-face, one-on-one, and semi-structured interviews. Interpretive phenomenological analysis in Atlas.ti was conducted. Results: Three themes emerged: bedside manner of AMPs; stigmatising TM use; and individual belief systems. The belief of patients’ disclosure hesitancy because of fear of judgment by the AMPs underpinned these themes. Conclusion: Allopathic medicine practitioners are aware that patients who use TM could feel guilty and stigmatised. They acknowledged that patients use TM because of cultural and ethnic reasons, which should not be disregarded. Contribution: The study highlighted that patients do not disclose their TM use because of AMPs’ attitudes, stigmatising TM use, and their prejudices against the cultural beliefs of patients. Allopathic medicine practitioners should establish good communication with patients by providing patient-centred communication to facilitate disclosure of TM use. Keywords: traditional medicine; Allopathic medicine practitioners; non-disclosure; patient treatment outcomes; consultation; stigmatising; belief systems; cultural and ethnic reasons. Allopathic medicine practitioners’ experiences with non-disclosure of traditional medicine use Page 2 of 8 Original Research https://www.hsag.co.za Open Access Over the last decade, there has been little change in the rate of TM use disclosure to AMPs (Foley et al. 2019). However, rates of disclosure of TM use vary according to population demographics and TM classification. A study conducted in Malaysia reveals that patient disclosure was motivated by multiple benefits, including the possibility of receiving advice from AMPs regarding the continuance of TM use or receiving more information about the TM they use (Kelak, Cheah & Safii 2018). The lack of disclosure regarding TM usage holds significance, especially in understanding how AMPs are pivotal guardians in ensuring their patients’ overall health awareness (Foley et al. 2019). According to Johny, Cheah and Razitasham (2017), AMPs tend to be business-oriented and lack human connection with TM patients, which hinders disclosure. Several articles have addressed grounds for non-disclosure of TM use (Agyei- Baffour et al. 2017; Mokhesi & Modjadji 2022; Stubbe 2018). Motivation for non-disclosure may include, but is not limited to, failure of AMPs to inquire about TM use, AMPs reprimanding patients for using TM, and that AMPs have limited knowledge of TM and therefore they would not benefit from disclosing their TM use (Mwaka, Abbo & Kinengyere 2020). Despite documented evidence of barriers to patients’ disclosure of TM use to AMPs, there is a paucity of research examining AMPs’ experiences with nondisclosure of TM use. Therefore, it is important to encourage AMPs to inquire about the patient’s use of TM (Stubbe 2018). The use of TM is common in South Africa and therefore AMPs need to be knowledgeable to better manage their patients for better outcomes (Zingela, Van Wyk & Pieterse 2019). Patients may believe that their TM use is confidential; therefore, AMPs might not be aware that they are using TM and AM concurrently. To ensure patient safety, a thorough investigation of patients’ disclosure of TM use as well as the reasons for non-disclosure is required (Mokhesi & Modjadji 2022). Currently, existing patient–AMP communication does not allow AMPs to link TM and AM in practice; thus, the development of workable methods to guide the process is required (Wardle, Sibbritt & Adams 2018). These methods could assist AMPs in comprehending patients’ non-disclosure, allowing them to enhance treatment and communication with patients who use TM. Several studies have examined the impact of involving patients in healthcare decisions. For example, Krist et al. (2017) found that when patients are involved in decision-making, they have a better understanding of their treatment options and are more likely to make informed choices. Similarly, Bombard et al. (2018) argue that involving patients in healthcare decisions can improve communication between patients and healthcare providers, leading to better service delivery and governance. However, despite these findings, there is still a need for further research to explore the implications of non-disclosure or disclosure on treatment outcomes and the provision of care by healthcare providers (Foley et al. 2019). Purpose This study explored the experiences of AMPs regarding the disclosure of TM use in Gauteng province. Research methods and design Research design and context A qualitative, interpretive phenomenological research approach guided by hermeneutics was followed to explore the lived experiences of AMPs when consulting with patients who use TM (Rodriguez & Smith 2018; Smith 2004). The chosen design was deemed appropriate for this study because it allowed the researcher to begin comprehending the variety of factors of non-disclosure of TM that can affect AMPs based on their perspective and experience, revealing concealed meaning rather than making inferences. The study was guided by a constructivist paradigm, which took a relativist ontology approach and incorporated various intangible mental concepts that were derived from the contextual and experiential knowledge of the AMPs (Guba & Lincoln 1994). The study was conducted at selected district hospitals in the Gauteng province. Four district hospitals were selected for this study because they promote primary health care and serve as a gateway to specialised care. These hospitals are where most patients with chronic illnesses and potential TM users are managed. This study was inspired by the main researcher’s prior experience as a radiographer, who saw several difficulties faced by AMPs when dealing with patients who might be using TM and not disclosing TM use to them. Population and sampling Population in research is the entire group of individuals with similar characteristics from whom data will be collected (Polit & Beck 2017). The study population were AMPs working in the outpatient departments (OPDs), in the district hospitals in the Gauteng Province. A non-probability, purposive sampling described by Polit and Beck (2017), was adopted to select AMPs in the OPD from multiple sites. The researcher selected participants based on ...

Population and sampling Population in research is the entire group of individuals with similar characteristics from whom data will be collected (Polit & Beck 2017). The study population were AMPs working in the outpatient departments (OPDs), in the district hospitals in the Gauteng Province. A non-probability, purposive sampling described by Polit and Beck (2017), was adopted to select AMPs in the OPD from multiple sites. The researcher selected participants based on ...

Understanding Large Language Models Essential Configuration Settings Fundamental Prompting Techniques Advanced Prompting Strategies Best Practices for Effective Prompts Common Pitfalls and How to Avoid Them Hands-On Examples Testing and Iteration Resources and Next Steps Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) and Prompt Engineering The 6-Part Prompting Framework What is Prompt Engineering? Prompt engineering is the art and science of crafting instructions that guide AI language models to produce desired outputs. Think of it as learning to communicate effectively with AI systems to achieve specific goals. Why is it important? You don't need to be a programmer to use AI effectively Good prompts can dramatically improve AI performance It's an iterative skill that improves with practice It's becoming essential for productivity in many fields Prompt engineering vs. context engineering Prompt engineering = crafting the instruction you give the model. Context engineering = curating the information the model can see when following that instruction. Quick contrast Aspect Prompt engineering Context engineering Goal Tell the model how to behave and what to produce Give the model the facts/examples it should rely on Levers Wording, structure, roles, constraints, output schema, few-shot examples Retrieval (RAG), documents, knowledge bases, tools/APIs, memory, state across turns Typical changes “Be concise. Return valid JSON with fields X/Y/Z.” “Attach the company glossary, latest policy PDF, and retrieved passages for this query.” Failure mode Vague instructions → messy/incorrect format Missing/irrelevant info → hallucinations/outdated answers Ownership UX/prompt designers, app devs Data/ML/platform teams (pipelines, indexing, chunking, evals) How they work together Start with a good prompt: clear task, constraints, and an output contract (e.g., JSON schema). Then ground it with context: supply only the most relevant passages, tables, and tool results. The prompt guides behavior; the context supplies knowledge. You usually need both. Concrete examples Invoice → JSON extractor Prompt engineering: “Extract fields {vendor, date, total}. Return JSON only. If a field is missing, use null.” Context engineering: Provide a few labeled examples and attach the vendor’s invoice spec retrieved via embeddings. Policy Q&A bot Prompt engineering: “Answer using the attached passages; if unsure, say ‘Not in policy.’ Cite section IDs.” Context engineering: RAG over your policy repo (chunking, metadata filters like department=HR, freshness boosts), plus a recency cache for updates. Agentic workflow Prompt engineering: Tool-use instructions and function signatures. Context engineering: Feed tool responses (DB rows, API payloads) back into the context window each step; maintain short-term memory/state. Practical tips Keep prompts short, specific, and testable; define output schemas. Prefer few-shot examples only when they generalize; otherwise move them into retrieval. For context: optimize chunking, ranking, deduping, and token budgets; log what was retrieved for each answer. Add citations and “answer only from context” instructions when correctness matters. Evaluate both layers separately: prompt A/B tests and retrieval quality (precision/recall, groundedness). One-liner: Prompt engineering is how you ask; context engineering is what you show. Combine them for reliable, scalable LLM apps. Understanding Large Language Models How LLMs Work (The Basics) Large Language Models are prediction engines that: Take text input (your prompt) Predict the next most likely word/token Continue this process to generate complete responses Base predictions on patterns learned from training data Key Concept: Autocompletion LLMs don't "understand" in the human sense—they're sophisticated autocomplete systems. Your prompt sets up the context for what should come next. Essential Configuration Settings Before diving into prompt techniques, understand these key parameters that control AI behavior: Temperature (0-1) Low (0-0.3): Focused, consistent, deterministic responses Medium (0.4-0.7): Balanced creativity and consistency High (0.8-1.0): Creative, diverse, but potentially unpredictable When to use: Temperature 0: Math problems, factual questions Temperature 0.7: Creative writing, brainstorming Temperature 0.9: Poetry, experimental content Output Length/Token Limits Controls maximum response length Higher limits = more computational cost Set appropriately for your task needs Top-K and Top-P (Nucleus Sampling) Top-K: Limits choices to top K most likely tokens Top-P: Limits choices based on cumulative probability Work together with temperature to control randomness Recommended starting points: Conservative: Temperature 0.1, Top-P 0.9, Top-K 20 Balanced: Temperature 0.2, Top-P 0.95, Top-K 30 Creative: Temperature 0.9, Top-P 0.99, Top-K 40 Fundamental Prompting Techniques 1. Zero-Shot Prompting The simplest approach—just ask directly without examples. Example: Classify this movie review as positive, negative, or neutral: "The film was visually stunning but the plot felt rushed." When to use: Simple, well-defined tasks When the model has clear knowledge of the domain Quick one-off requests 2. One-Shot Prompting Provide a single example to guide the response format. Example: Translate English to French: English: "Hello, how are you?" French: "Bonjour, comment allez-vous?" English: "Where is the library?" French: 3. Few-Shot Prompting Provide multiple examples to establish a clear pattern. Example: Convert customer feedback to structured data: Feedback: "Great service, but food was cold" JSON: {"service": "positive", "food": "negative", "overall": "mixed"} Feedback: "Amazing experience, will definitely return" JSON: {"service": "positive", "food": "positive", "overall": "positive"} Feedback: "Terrible food and rude staff" JSON: Best practices: Use 3-5 examples for most tasks Include diverse examples Mix up the classes in classification tasks Ensure examples are high-quality and consistent 4. System Prompting Set overall context and behavior guidelines. Example: You are a helpful travel guide. Provide practical, accurate information about destinations. Always include: - Key attractions - Local customs to be aware of - Budget considerations - Best time to visit User: Tell me about visiting Tokyo. 5. Role Prompting Assign a specific character or expertise to the AI. Example: Act as an experienced software architect. I need help designing a scalable web application for 1 million users. What architecture patterns should I consider? Effective roles: Subject matter expert (doctor, lawyer, teacher) Creative roles (writer, designer, poet) Analytical roles (data analyst, consultant) Communication styles (friendly tutor, formal advisor) 6. Contextual Prompting Provide specific background information relevant to the task. Example: Context: You're writing for a tech blog aimed at beginners who have never coded before. Write a 200-word explanation of what an API is, using simple language and practical examples. Advanced Prompting Strategies Chain of Thought (CoT) Prompting Encourage step-by-step reasoning for complex problems. Example: Solve this step by step: If I was 6 when my sister was half my age, how old is my sister when I'm 40? Let me think through this step by step: When to use: Math problems Logical reasoning Complex analysis Multi-step processes Best practices: Use "Let's think step by step" or similar phrases Set temperature to 0 for consistent reasoning Extract final answers separately from reasoning Self-Consistency Generate multiple reasoning paths and select the most common answer. Process: Ask the same question multiple times with different phrasings Compare the answers Choose the most frequently occurring result Example: Question: If a store offers a 20% discount on a $50 item, what is the final price? Generate 3 different reasoning paths for this question and select the most consistent answer. Path 1: To find the final price, calculate the discount: 20% of $50 is 0.20 × 50 = $10. Subtract this from the ori...

4.1. LA RESTAURACIÓN: EL SISTEMA CANOVISTA La Restauración fue un sistema político ideado por Antonio Cánovas del Castillo, cuyo principal objetivo era acabar con la inestabilidad política y garantizar el orden y la continuidad de la monarquía. Para ello, se restauró la dinastía borbónica con Alfonso XII como rey y se estableció un sistema basado en la alternancia pacífica de partidos. La base legal del sistema fue la Constitución de 1876, que se caracterizaba por ser flexible y duradera. En ella se establecía una monarquía constitucional con soberanía compartida entre el rey y las Cortes. La Constitución recogía una amplia declaración de derechos individuales, aunque estos derechos quedaban supeditados a leyes posteriores, lo que permitía limitar su aplicación real. En un principio se estableció el sufragio censitario, es decir, solo podían votar los ciudadanos con cierto nivel de renta, aunque en 1890 se implantó el sufragio universal masculino. El funcionamiento del sistema se apoyaba en el bipartidismo y el turnismo. Los dos partidos dinásticos eran el Partido Conservador, liderado por Cánovas, y el Partido Liberal, dirigido por Sagasta. Ambos partidos se comprometían a respetar la monarquía y la Constitución, y se turnaban en el poder de manera pactada. Cuando uno de ellos se desgastaba, el rey llamaba al otro para formar gobierno y después se convocaban elecciones. Este turno de partidos no era fruto de elecciones libres, sino que se aseguraba mediante el fraude electoral y el caciquismo. Los caciques eran personajes influyentes a nivel local que manipulaban el voto para garantizar el resultado deseado por el gobierno. Gracias a este sistema, el Partido Conservador gobernó entre 1875 y 1881. Posteriormente, Sagasta formó el primer gobierno liberal y, más tarde, Cánovas volvió al poder en 1884. Tras la muerte de Alfonso XII en 1885, se temió que el sistema político pudiera desestabilizarse. Para evitarlo, se firmó el Pacto del Pardo, por el cual conservadores y liberales acordaron mantener el turno pacífico de partidos. Durante la regencia de María Cristina de Habsburgo-Lorena (1885-1902), el Partido Liberal gobernó durante más tiempo y llevó a cabo importantes reformas, como la Ley de Asociaciones (1887), la abolición de la esclavitud (1888), la implantación del jurado, el nuevo Código Civil (1889) y el sufragio universal masculino (1890). En la última década del siglo XIX se mantuvo el turnismo, pero el sistema empezó a mostrar signos de agotamiento. En 1897 Cánovas fue asesinado y el excesivo personalismo de los líderes provocó divisiones internas y la progresiva descomposición de los partidos dinásticos. 4.2. LA CUESTIÓN COLONIAL Y LA CRISIS DE 1898. OPOSICIÓN AL SISTEMA Uno de los principales problemas de la Restauración fue la cuestión colonial, especialmente en Cuba. Tras la Paz de Zanjón en 1878, que puso fin a la Guerra de los Diez Años, España se comprometió a introducir reformas en la isla, pero muchas de ellas no se cumplieron. Esto provocó nuevos conflictos, como la Guerra Chiquita (1879) y, finalmente, el Grito de Baire en 1895, que dio inicio a la Guerra de Independencia cubana. La situación se agravó con la intervención de Estados Unidos, que tenía importantes intereses económicos en Cuba. En 1898 estalló la guerra hispano-estadounidense, en la que España fue rápidamente derrotada. La guerra terminó con la Paz de París, por la cual España perdió sus últimas colonias: Cuba, Puerto Rico y Filipinas. Este hecho supuso un duro golpe para el prestigio internacional del país. La derrota de 1898 provocó una grave crisis política y moral en España. Se puso de manifiesto el atraso del país y la necesidad de llevar a cabo reformas profundas para modernizar la vida política, social y cultural. En este contexto surgieron movimientos como el Regeneracionismo, que defendía la necesidad de “regenerar” España, y la Institución Libre de Enseñanza, que promovía una educación moderna y laica. Frente al sistema de la Restauración existió una oposición constante. El carlismo, aunque fue derrotado definitivamente en 1876, mantuvo cierta presencia política. Los republicanos estaban divididos y carecían de fuerza suficiente para gobernar. También surgieron los nacionalismos periféricos, especialmente en Cataluña y el País Vasco, que reclamaban mayor autonomía. Por último, el movimiento obrero, dividido entre anarquistas y socialistas, fue perseguido en muchas ocasiones y no logró una representación parlamentaria significativa.

O regime fascista em Itália

1. O Regime Fascista em Itália A Itália em crise A Itália, no decorrer da 1.ª Grande Guerra, sofreu consideráveis perdas humanas e materiais. Mas, apesar de fazer parte do grupo dos países vencedores, não tinha recebido grandes recompensas. Por isso, continuava a reivindicar territórios vizinhos (Fiúme, Dalmácia) que lhe tinham sido prometidos pelos Aliados. Por outro lado, nos inícios da década de 1920, o país atravessava uma grave crise económica e financeira. A agricultura e a indústria tinham perdido importância, a inflação e o desemprego eram elevados. O défice do Estado aumentava. A Itália era, então uma Monarquia Parlamentar. Entre junho de 1919 e fevereiro de 1922, o país foi dirigido por quatro governos. Por isso, a instabilidade política levou ao descrédito do regime liberal, muito criticado por um partido da extrema-direita, o Partido Nacional Fascista. Mussolini alcança o poder Face à incapacidade dos governos para resolver a crise, o descontentamento atingiu todas as camadas sociais: ● os camponeses , à espera de uma reforma agrária, apoderaram-se das terras; ● os operários , desencadearam greves e ocuparam fábricas; ● as classes médias e a burguesia , preocupadas com a insegurança e a agitação nas ruas, temiam que se implantasse em Itália um regime semelhante ao da Rússia (comunismo).A situação foi aproveitada por Mussolini, fundador do Partido Nacional Fascista. Mussolini prometeu repor a ordem em Itália e satisfazer reivindicações das classes sociais. De imediato, organizou grandes comícios de exaltação nacional e sedes dos sindicatos e dos atacou as partidos de esquerda. O Partido Nacional Fascista foi ganhando adeptos e visto como a única força capaz de salvar o país. Em 1922, perto de 30 000 “camisas negras” avançaram sobre Roma. O rei Vitor Manuel III, receoso de uma guerra civil, convidou Mussolini a formar governo. Durante 2 anos, os fascistas perseguiram e eliminaram os opositores. Nas eleições de 1924, Mussolini, após uma campanha de grande intimidação, conseguiu a maioria absoluta dos votos. De seguida, instaurou uma ditadura fascista. Caraterísticas do Fascismo Mussolini estabeleceu, em Itália, uma ditadura fascista. Este regime, que vigorou entre 1925 e 1945, tinha como caraterísticas: 1. Concentração de poderes no chefe do governo: ●Mussolini dispunha dos poderes executivo e legislativo (o rei e o parlamento tornaram-se figuras simbólicas); Duce, que se torna objeto de culto. 2. Estado totalitário: ● a administração pública é controlada e todos se submetem ao ● os partidos políticos foram proibidos, apenas se admitindo a existência do Partido Nacional Fascista (partido único); ● foi criada uma Polícia Política (OVRA – Organização para a Vigilância e Repressão do Antifascismo); ● foi estabelecida a censura e controlada a imprensa, a rádio e o cinema; as liberdades fundamentais foram anuladas em nome do princípio “Tudo no Estado, nada contra o Estado, nada fora do Estado”. 3.Nacionalismo – o regime fascista fazia apelo aos valores nacionais, em torno dos quais todos os italianos deviam estar unidos; 4.Corporativismo – os operários e patrões associaram-se em corporações, controladas pelo governo, pelo que os sindicatos livres e as greves foram proibidas e os salários controlados. A obra do Fascismo Mussolini procurou fazer da Itália uma potência económica. Para isso, com vista a tornar o país autossuficiente, tomou as seguintes medidas: ● Desenvolvimento da agricultura – aumento da produção do trigo, através da “batalha do trigo” e da conquista de terras pantanosas; ● Construção de grandes obras públicas – lançamento das primeiras autoestradas, eletrificação das vias férreas, construção de centrais hidroelétricas e de edifícios públicos; ● Desenvolvimento da produção nacional – criação de indústrias (siderúrgica, armamento); proteção dos produtos italianos, através da aplicação de taxas alfandegárias sobre os produtos importados.Mas, Mussolini procurou, também, criar um Império e afirmar-se internacionalmente. Neste sentido: ● conquistou a Etiópia (1936); ● interveio na Guerra Civil de Espanha (1936-1939); ● participou na 2.ª Guerra Mundial (1939-1945).

Common and civil law

Civil law is said to be codified as opposed to common law which is said to uncodified. When we say that something is codified, we basically mean that it is written down somewhere, that the rules are all collected together somewhere. The UK constitution is said to be uncodified because all the laws with which the state operates are not collected in a single book. In contrast, the US has the America’s Constitution book – their constitution is codified. Do bear in mind that the laws of England & Wales don’t just exist in the minds of people – they are written down, such as when an Act is passed by Parliament, or when the Court hands down a decision. The Act and the decision are written down. However, they are not all found somewhere collectively, and this is why the common law is said to be uncodified. A final point on this, the UK constitution can sometimes be said to not exist at all. As you should have gathered by now, everything is up for debate, but most agree that the UK constitution exists, it’s just not codified. Moving on to the second difference between common law and civil law, have a look at the second row of the table. Judicial precedents are said to be binding in common-law jurisdictions. This means that like cases should be treated alike. This was mentioned in my previous video called ‘What is the Common Law?’ if you spotted it. Lower Courts have to follow upper Courts’ decisions, and matters which were dealt with one specific way, if another case arises with the same facts and/or legal issues, that also must be dealt with similarly. Judicial precedent is not so important in civil-law jurisdictions because the decisions themselves have not been reached purely through the judges’ own scholarship and interpretation. The judges’ role in civil-law jurisdictions is to establish the facts of the case and to apply the provisions of the applicable code. Although they use their expertise, they are not considered to be as creative as common-law judges. The judges’ role in common-law jurisdictions is to create the law to some extent, and to interpret the statutes passed by Parliament when those are in play in cases. Their role is therefore active and creative, as opposed to civil-law judges’ more passive and technical role. This is why judicial precedent is considered to be more important in common-law countries. Finally, it should be clear by now that common-law jurisdictions are more case-law reliant, and also operate very much on custom and practice. In contrast, civil-law jurisdictions are more reliant on legislation/constitution.

LINGUAGEM

1 LINGUAGEM E COMUNICAÇÃO POLICIAL MILITAR MÓDULO 1 AULA 1 - INTRODUÇÃO Antes de abordar os temas desta disciplina, é fundamental apresentarmos uma visão geral das relações entre a linguística textual e a produção de textos, tanto orais quanto escritos. Isso se faz necessário para compreendermos as bases teóricas que sustentam as perspectivas da comunicação e da construção e estruturação de textos, uma vez que é por meio dessa vertente da linguística que se concebem as estruturas da comunicação e da linguagem. É praticamente impossível tratar as teorias de produção e compreensão textual sem considerar os princípios da Linguística Textual, pois é por via dela que se vê oferecer as ferramentas para que entenda como os textos são construídos, como os sentidos são estabelecidos e como os interlocutores interagem por meio da linguagem. A título de exemplo, podemos citar, como pontos que exploram essa relação, temas fundamentais para que um texto seja tratado como tal, e não como um simples amontoado de palavras sem sentido, quais sejam, o detalhamento de mecanismos que garantem a ligação interna das partes de um texto (coesão) e a sua unidade de sentido (coerência); os fatores como a intencionalidade (a intenção do produtor), a aceitabilidade (a expectativa do receptor), a situacionalidade (o contexto da comunicação), a informatividade (o grau de novidade das informações) e a intertextualidade (relação com outros textos) que abarcam os fatores de textualidade, cruciais para a construção e recepção de textos eficazes Além disso, é na linguística textual que residem as categorizações dos gêneros textuais, ajdando-nos a entender que os textos não são unidades isoladas, mas, sim, inseridos em formas de comunicações específicos (notícia, e-mail, conto, receita, etc.), cada um com suas características e finalidades comunicativas; e dentro da atividade policial estamos e somos ladeados de vários desses gêneros. Outra questão importante é entender que o texto é um evento comunicativo, um espaço de interação social no qual o produtor e o receptor constroem sentidos juntos, levando em conta o contexto e suas intenções, o que, no universo da linguística rextual, encontramos nominado como Enfoque Sociointeracionista, o que não se faz necessário mergulhar tão profundamente para entender, já pela nomenclatura, do que ele trata. 2 Compreender e conhecer, portanto, algumas questões desse segmento dos estudos linguísticos é, sem dúvida, o ponto de partida ideal para quem busca aprimorar as habilidades de comunicação e produção textual, seja no âmbito acadêmico, profissional ou pessoal. Desde o seu aparecimento nos idos de 1960, até hoje, a Linguística Textual percorreu um longo caminho evolutivo, ampliando e modificando a cada passo seu universo de preocupações. Em um primeiro momento assumiu uma postura de inclinação gramatical (análise transfrática), o que reverberou certa inquietude em seus operadores posto que a essência a que se destinava um texto estava voltada a um plano secundário ou coadjuvante. Ou seja, a mensagem estava fadada ao segundo plano em relação à correção da escrita. Em seus estudos sobre essa vertente, Schmidt (1978, p. 5) ressalta que já em 1968, Hartmann, alemão que figura como um dos fundadores da linguística do texto, assim se reportou sobre os problemas agregados pela vertente transfrática: “Se desejarmos praticar e desenvolver a ciência da linguagem em plenitude e diferenciação adequada a seus objetos, é preciso partir da real situação objeto no domínio da realidade lingüística. O ponto de partida de uma fenomenologia do objeto lingüístico localiza-se na textualidade do sinal lingüístico original”. Ou seja, o ponto situacional representa a origem da mensagem, sendo o ponto de partida essencial para qualquer ação comunicativa. É esse ponto que direciona o fluxo da comunicação, e ele se baseará primária e prioritariamente no conteúdo que está sendo expresso, seja de forma oral ou escrita, mesmo que a estrutura do texto apresente falhas. Seguidamente, essa vertente linguística adotou caracteres pragmático discursivos para depois se transformar em disciplina com forte tendência sócio cognitivista, relacionada com o processamento sócio-cognitivo de textos escritos e falados, ou seja, fenômenos, teorias ou abordagens que reconhecem a interdependência entre o que pensamos (cognição) e como somos influenciados pelo ambiente social em que vivemos (social). Olson (1995, pp. 269 e 270) postula haver a necessidade de quatro fatores que considera essenciais como condição de existência de uma cultura escrita geral, quais sejam: a) O suporte de fixação e retenção dos textos, que poderiam ter como meio principal para sua materialização o próprio texto escrito com a função de armazenamento, arquivamento, adicionação, ou até mesmo substituição ou abandono 3 de informações quando do surgimento de novos dados que permitam assim a base para a criação de novos textos; b) A necessidade de existência de “instituições específicas” para a condução dos operadores textuais a outras “instituições”, embasando-se especificamente na importância da existência de outros núcleos de convivência social específica, como a igreja, a família, o ambiente profissional e, notadamente, a escola, que desempenha o importante papel formativo, apresentando-nos e fazendo-nos confiar, além dos outros segmentos dimensionais da educação, à prática da escrita como elemento identificador de conhecimentos específicos. Isso faz ressaltar que na sociedade ora vigente, ainda que estejamos perpassados por ferramentas e implmentos tecnológicos, o indivíduo que não possui o domínio da escrita ou não consegue ao menos firmar o seu nome, ainda é considerado iletrado, resguardando se, no entanto, o proposto por Marcuschi (2001, p. 19) ao lembrar que: [...] deve-se ter imenso cuidado diante da tendência à escolarização do letramento, que sofre de um mal crônico ao supor que só existe um letramento. O letramento não é o equivalente à aquisição da escrita. Existem “letramentos sociais” que surgem e se desenvolvem à margem da escola, não precisando por isso serem depreciados. Levando-se em consideração que a o letramento, no campo pedagógico, é a capacidade de usar a leitura e a escrita em diferentes propósitos e contextos sociais, o letramento social, que trata Marecuschi (2021), acompanha o contexto dessa capacidade, regulando, orientando, conduzindo as diversas formas comunicativas sociais. c) A produção escrita como fundamento à existência de “instituições”, em que a abrangência de um texto constitui íntima relação e relevância para com as instituições e as práticas as quais referenciam, quais sejam: “a religião, a lei, os negócios, a ciência e a literatura”. Se assim não ocorre, o texto caracterizar-se-á como limitado no que tange ao sentido e significado cognitivo; e d) A existência do caráter evolutivo de uma metalinguagem oral, ligada à “linguagem mental”, classificada por esse estudioso como a característica de maior relevância, posto que é por via da metalinguagem que se permite aos operadores da fala e da escrita referenciarem-se e interpretarem outras produções escritas e as suas características de conteúdos. É inegável a importância de tais fatores no universo composicional de textos, posto que se observa, como pretendemos abordar mais adiante, a necessidade de correlação entre o que, o porquê, para que ou para quem, e, principalmente, como escrever, uma vez que em todos os itens acima listados e lastreados nos estudos de 4 Olson (1995, pp. 270 e 274), revelam-se possibilidades de ocorrências de erros por vieses diversos, principalmente pela forte tendência em se inferir linhas da oralidade na escrita. Não por isso, esse autor postula a mudança ocorrida na própria cultura de como se passou a observar as alterações de produções linguísticas dos indivíduos depois da aplicabilidade dos textos, valendo-se, para sedimentar seu posicionamento, das seguintes teorias: I) Teoria de nexo entre a “escrita e o pensamento”, como o da modalidade que confere à linguagem escrita a capacidade de influenciar “as formas e os usos da língua”, pelo fato de possibilitar uma amostra palpável (perceptível) da língua oral. Essa representação possibilitou ainda a percepção de diferenças entre os turnos escritos e falados, resguardando-se as relações de forma, vocabulário e “gêneros” diversos; II) Na “teoria do meio”, o linguista em questão chama a atenção para os aspectos léxicos e sintáticos presentes nas vertentes comunicativas, oral e escrita, e acrescenta que “escrever é, em essência, um processo mais consciente que falar... um discurso espontâneo é, geralmente, escrito”; III) Na vertente teórica das habilidades mentais, postula que as teorias relacionadas ao meio e à modalidade são transpostas pelas habilidades com suporte nas atividades de leitura e da escrita. Estas, quando adquiridas, possibilitam inclusive a identificação da forma materializada das palavras e sons, no que concerne às atividades faladas e auditivas, como também a possibilidade de identificação particular de textos, de discursos e suas análises, indo mais além, pois hodiernamente já se tem como razoável a incorporação na oralidade de conteúdos trazidos pela escrita; IV) A capacidade de observação e reflexão das características da linguagem, ou seja, a metalinguagem, constitui fator preponderante e suplantador aos atos da audição e oralidade, e da escrita, que se constituem como atividades primárias e secundárias, respectivamente, pa...

-Потребите на луѓето се од биолошки, географски и од општествено-историски карактер. Обемот и структурата на потребите зависи од многу фактори: - достигнатиот степен на економски развој; - социјалната средина во која се живее; - природните услови - навиките, вкусот, модата итн. -Потребите ја изразуваат состојбата на организмот или на социјалната ситуација и упатуваат на нарушена биолошка или социјална рамнотежа. -Потребата е недостаток или вишок на нештата во организмот или средината која го поттикнува организмот на активност за да ја постигне рамнотежата. -Во теоријата на маркетингот постојат различни класификации на потребите. Најчесто се класифицираат во две групи:13 1. Основни потреби – потреби за одржување на живот. 2. Потреби на стандард – потреби за комфорно живеење, користење на технички достигнувања, културен живот и сл. -Според носителите на потребите, тие се делат на:14 1. Индивидуални човечки потреби, кои се групираат на биолошки и психолошки потреби. 2. Општествени потреби, кои се јавуваат кај човекот како општествено битие, како што се: потребите за организирање, планирање, комуникација, образование итн. -Во маркетингот значајна е поделбата на потребите во зависност од редоследот на нивното задоволување според Маслов. 1. На основата на пирамидата се наоѓаат физиолошките потреби односно биолошки или основни потреби. Без нивно задоволување човекот не може да опстои во живот. Тука спаѓаат потребите за храна, вода, пијалаци, воздух, спиење и сл. 2. Потреби за сигурност – потреби за безбедност и заштита дома, на училиште, на работа и сл. 3. Емоционално врзување – општествени потреби за љубов, пријателство, другарство и сл. 4. Потреби за почитување – признание, самопочитување, статус. 5. Потреба за знаење – разбирање, учење на нови работи, спознавање. 6. Естетски потреби – потреби за убаво. 7. Самоактуелизација – постигнување максимум во животот, самодокажување, самопотрврдување, самореализација. *Успешното идентификување на потребите е основа за успешна сегментација на пазарот. Компаниите тогаш ќе можат поефикасно да ги насочат и приспособат своите маркетиншки напори на потребите на сегментите. *Мотив е внатрешна движечка сила која го поттикнува човекот кон определена активност со крајна цел да се воспостави рамнотежа. Познавањето на мотивите на потрошувачите објаснува зошто купувачите донеле одлука да купат одреден производ, некоја марка на производ или услуга. Мотивите на потрошувачите се дефинираат како непосредни поттикнувачи на акција, односно на купување одредени производи или услуги. *Мотивите на купувањето најчесто се класифицираат во две групи: - рационални мотиви, - емоционални мотиви. *Рационални или како што се нарекуваат економски мотиви на купувањето се таков вид мотиви кои во донесувањето на одлуката за купување поаѓаат од одредени економски причини како што се: квалитет, цена, сигурност, трајностна производот и сл. Во оваа група мотиви спаѓаат:15 - начин на користење на производот, - ефикасност во користењето или употребата, - сигурност на помошна услуга, - можност за зголемување на заработувачката, - зголемување на продуктивноста на трудот, - економичност во набавката и користењето. *Емоционалните мотиви настануваат како резултат на личните, субјективните критериуми во донесувањето на одлуката за купување и изборот се прави врз основа на елементи кои не произлегуваат од логичкото однесување на купувачите. Тука спаѓаат: - задоволување одредени чувства (вид, слух, мирис, вкус), - одржување на видот, - самозаштита, - одмор и рекреација, - достоинство, - општествено признание, - љубопитност и сл. Мотивацискиот процес започнува во моментот кога потрошувачот станува свесендека има одредена потреба. Мотивацискиот процес има три етапи: - етапа на појава на потреба и создавање мотив, - етапа на однесување на потрошувачите, - етапа на купување и задоволување на потребите. *Купувањето е сложен процес затоа што човекот не се однесува рационално во одредени ситуации, односно врз неговата одлука за купување влијаат голем бројобјективни и субјективни фактори, односно стимуланси. Основни фактори се: поединецот, неговото семејство, неговата потесна околина, припадноста во одредена општествена класа, културна, општествено- економска средина и сл. *Реакцијата на купувачите се состои од избор на производ, марка на производ, се избира место на набавка, време и износ на набавка *Процесот на донесување на одлука покажува и кои активности се преземаат при донесување на решенија и како внатрешните и надворешните сили влијаат на размислувањата, оценката и дејствувањето на потрошувачите. *Процесот на донесување одлука за купување поминува низ пет фази:17  Препознавање на потреба;  Прибирање информации;  Оцена на различни алтернативи;  Одлука за купување;  Посткуповен процес. Препознавањето на потребата настанува како резултат на воочување на разликата меѓу посакуваната состојба и вистинската состојба доволна да го поттикне и да го активира процесот на одлучување.18 Потребата може да биде предизвикана од:19 - Внатрешни поттикнувачи (глад, жед и сл.). - Надворешни поттикнувачи (фактори и ситуации што дејствуваат однадвор). Прибирање информации Втора фаза во процесот на купување е кога купувачот е предизвикан да бара повеќе информации. Прибирањето на информациите вклучува ментални и физички активности на потрошувачите. Потрошувачите пребаруваат повеќе извори за да ги добијат потребните информации за избор на производ со кој

Introduction : L’idée de nature nous est familière : nous pouvons parler d’aimer la nature ou de la nature profonde d’une personne, de même que nous distinguons ce qui est naturel de ce qui ne l’est pas. La nature est d’abord une évidence pour nous, mais si nous cherchons à définir ce que nous pouvons entendre par « nature », nous sommes vite confrontés à la polysémie de ce mot. Quel est le point commun entre les différents sens que recouvre ce terme ? La recherche de ce point commun correspond à ce qu’on appelle en philosophie l’essence : quelle est alors l’essence de la nature ? Puisqu’il est dans la nature de l’homme de modifier son environnement, est-il pertinent de distinguer la nature de son inverse : la culture ou l’artifice ? La difficulté à répondre invite à soulever un nouveau problème : le concept désigne-t-il une réalité objective, ou est-il avant tout normatif ? Nous commencerons par essayer de définir le concept de nature par opposition à celui de culture : la nature désigne l’ensemble de ce qui existe indépendamment de l’action des hommes. Puis nous verrons comment, en tant qu’objet de connaissance, la nature est également l’objet d’un désir de maîtrise de la part des hommes. Enfin, nous nous interrogerons sur les enjeux écologiques et nous nous demanderons si l’on peut penser une nature dénaturée. Penser la nature La nature est l’ensemble des réalités matérielles existant indépendamment de l’humain, c’est-à-dire ce que nous pouvons observer tout autour de nous mais qui n’est pas le résultat d’une production des hommes. Cette définition correspond à la fois à la compréhension commune (la nature renvoie au monde plus ou moins sauvage tel qu’il existe hors de l’intervention humaine) et à celle de la philosophie. Elle suppose l’existence d’un monde non naturel, qui se distingue et s’oppose à la nature : la culture. Nature et cosmos Les philosophes antiques pensaient la nature comme un tout englobant l’ensemble de ce qui existe. Alors que le concept d’environnement renvoie à l’idée d’un milieu, à la fois cadre de vie et ressource vitale, celui de nature implique une totalité plutôt qu’un rapport de contenant à contenu. L’idée grecque de cosmos véhicule aussi celle d’un ordre, d’une harmonie qui présiderait à l’organisation de la totalité. En tant que « tout » organisé, la nature désigne également la source de la vie. Elle est le principe de développement des êtres vivants. Par extension, la nature d’une chose signifie aussi son essence, c’est-à-dire ce qu’elle est profondément, ce qui constitue son être indépendamment des accidents qui peuvent en modifier l’aspect. Le rapport de la philosophie antique à la nature n’est donc pas un rapport d’opposition (naturel / non naturel). Au contraire, les différentes écoles philosophiques grecques ont en commun l’idée que la nature constitue un modèle auquel on peut se conformer. Héraclite estimait ainsi que « La voie de la sagesse est de parler et d’agir en écoutant la nature », et Marc Aurèle, dans les Pensées pour moi-même, affirmait : « Rien n’est mal qui est selon la nature ». Réflexion Les stoïciens (dont faisait partie Marc Aurèle) ont particulièrement insisté sur cette idée : s’interrogeant sur la meilleure manière de vivre, ils se sont efforcés de distinguer les tendances naturelles des hommes, par oppositions à des tendances non naturelles. Ainsi, par exemple, manger pour se nourrir est naturel, alors que manger par gourmandise ne l’est pas. Pour vivre une vie bonne et philosophique, les hommes devraient suivre leurs besoins naturels et se tenir à distance de ce qui s’en écarte. Nature et domination Socrate a hérité des philosophes présocratiques la compréhension de la nature comme d’un cosmos : la nature est le principe premier de toute chose. Définition Présocratiques : Les philosophes présocratiques sont des penseurs qui ont précédé Socrate, et dont Héraclite fait partie. Seuls des fragments de leurs textes nous sont parvenus ; de ce fait, on connaît assez mal leur enseignement. Dans le Gorgias de Platon, Socrate (dont Platon était le disciple) rappelle cette conception harmonieuse de la nature : « Certains sages disent […] que le ciel, la terre, les dieux et les hommes forment ensemble une communauté, qu’ils sont liés par l’amitié, l’amour de l’ordre, le respect de la tempérance et le sens de la justice. C’est pourquoi le tout du monde, ces sages […] l’appellent cosmos ou ordre du monde ». Mais cette définition ne suffit pas à déterminer le sens que l’on donne à la nature. Réflexion Dans le Gorgias, Socrate discute avec Calliclès qui, partant d’une même définition de la nature, en tire des règles d’existence différentes. Pour Calliclès, suivre la nature ne signifie pas mener une vie simple, comme le pensent les stoïciens, ni s’efforcer de se rendre maître de ses désirs, comme le pense Socrate. Il élargit la définition en développant le concept de justice naturelle : «  […] la justice consiste en ce que le meilleur ait plus que le moins bon, et le plus fort que le moins fort. Partout il en est ainsi, c’est ce que la nature enseigne, chez toutes les espèces animales, chez toutes les races humains et dans toutes les cités ! » Platon, Gorgias. Selon Calliclès, la nature n’est pas seulement un principe d’harmonie et d’unité, elle est aussi une justification de la domination et de la force. À retenir On voit que l’idée de nature, même si elle correspond à une définition précise, n’est jamais neutre : elle porte toujours en elle un système de valeurs. Nature et lois physiques Dans le texte de Platon, Calliclès distingue d’une part le monde de la nature, où chacun est libre de suivre ses pulsions et d’accroître sa propre puissance, et d’autre part, la société qui soumet les hommes à des lois. Cette distinction renvoie à une autre compréhension de la nature : la distinction du « naturel » et de l’« artificiel ». La culture, l’art et la technique appartiennent à un monde proprement humain, contrairement à ce qui relève de la nature. Exemple On peut ainsi définir l’art comme ce qui cherche à imiter la nature, ce qui signifie implicitement que l’art n’est justement pas une production de la nature, il est « artificiel ». Réflexion Aristote propose de distinguer les choses qui existent par la nature de celles qui existent par d’autres causes, auxquelles il donne le nom d’« art ». Pourtant, contrairement à Calliclès, Aristote ne fait pas de la nature le domaine de la pure liberté, mais un univers régi par des lois au même titre que la société, comme celles du mouvement, de la naissance et de la mort, que l’observation peut déceler. Si la nature peut nous apparaître comme sauvage et dépourvue de rationalité humaine, elle est pourtant un monde avant tout physique, c’est-à-dire régi par les lois de la physique. Par rapport au monde artificiel des créations humaines, la nature est justement ce qui peut être compris à travers des lois scientifiques. Au XVIIIe siècle, en appui de cette théorie, Kant définira la nature ainsi : « La nature, c’est l’existence des choses, en tant qu’elle est déterminée selon des lois universelles. » Kant, Prolégomènes, 1783. À retenir On peut donc comprendre la nature comme un tout, mais un tout régi par un ensemble cohérent de lois. Utiliser la nature La conception unitaire et harmonieuse de la nature n’est pas antithétique avec une approche scientifique et utilitaire. Mais, alors que les Anciens s’attachaient davantage à sa dimension harmonieuse, la modernité a vu dans la nature le terrain où exercer non seulement nos connaissances, mais également notre action. La conception mécaniste : se rendre maître de la nature La conception scientifique de la nature a trouvé, en philosophie, une expression dans le mécanisme. Définition Mécanisme : Le mécanisme est une conception qui interprète les phénomènes matériels selon des relations de cause à effet. La nature de manière générale, mais aussi un corps vivant, peuvent ainsi être compris comme un ensemble de mécanismes répondant les uns aux autres. Si l’on voit dans la nature avant tout un ensemble de causalités régies par des lois physiques, on peut suspendre toute pensée éthique et avoir à la nature un rapport avant tout utilitaire : la nature est en effet ce qui nous fournit des ressources pour vivre et on peut donc la rationaliser, l’exploiter afin d’en obtenir le plus possible. Certains dénoncent dans cette approche une vision anthropocentrique de la nature : l’homme ne se conçoit pas seulement comme une partie de la nature, il s’octroie vis-à-vis d’elle une position de maîtrise et de domination. Réflexion : Il s’agit, en tout cas pour l’humanité moderne, de s’affranchir de la domination de la nature, ainsi que l’exprime Descartes : « [Ces connaissances] m’ont fait voir qu’il est possible de parvenir à des connaissances qui soient fort utiles à la vie, et qu’au lieu de cette philosophie spéculative, qu’on enseigne dans les écoles, on peut en trouver une pratique, par laquelle connaissant la force et les actions du feu, de l’eau, de l’air, des astres, des cieux et de tous les autres corps qui nous environnent, aussi distinctement que nous connaissons les divers métiers de nos artisans, nous les pourrions employer en même façon à tous les usages auxquels ils sont propres et ainsi nous...

glycémie

CUE : Régulation de la glycémie Glycémie : du grec glukus=doux (douceur du sucre) et haima= sang -Emie: sang Glyc: glucose Glycémie correspond aux taux de glucose dans le sang. Homéostasie glucidique : -Besoin en énergie : continu (le cerveau n’utilise que le glucose) -Prise alimentaire contenant des substrat énergétiques : discontinue -Besoin d’une régulation fine : stockage/ déstockage de l’énergie par des tissus spécialisés I)Les tissus impliqués dans la régulation de la glycémie Après un bol alimentaire, nous allons digérer les nutriments puis absorber notamment les glucides. Le glucose ainsi absorbé provoque une augmentation de la glycémie. Ce glucose peut ensuite être utilisé par différents organes et systèmes du corps. Certains, comme le cerveau et les hématies (globules rouges), utilisent exclusivement le glucose comme source d’énergie. En revanche, ils ne sont pas capables de stocker ni de libérer du glucose : ils utilisent simplement celui disponible pour couvrir leurs besoins immédiats. Il est donc nécessaire que d’autres organes puissent capter et libérer le glucose afin de maintenir une glycémie stable. Mais avant même cette étape, il faut un organe central capable de détecter la glycémie et de réguler la libération hormonale nécessaire au maintien de l’équilibre : c’est le pancréas. Le pancréas est au cœur de la régulation glycémique. Il libère plusieurs hormones – notamment l’insuline et le glucagon – qui agiront ensuite sur différents organes cibles, principalement : • Le foie, • Les muscles, • Le tissu adipeux. Ces organes sont responsables du stockage, de la libération ou de l’utilisation du glucose, permettant ainsi de maintenir la glycémie dans des limites normales. A) Le Foie Le foie est irrigué par deux systèmes : • Un système veineux, principalement la veine porte, • Un système artériel, issu de l’aorte via l’artère hépatique. La veine porte reçoit le sang provenant de l’estomac, de l’intestin, de la rate et du pancréas. Au niveau du tube digestif, les nutriments issus de la digestion passent dans le sang. Ce sang riche en nutriments rejoint ensuite le foie via la veine porte. Après un repas, la concentration en glucose (glycémie) dans la veine porte peut dépasser 0,8 à 1 g/L, ce qui est normal. Le foie reçoit donc un sang particulièrement riche en glucose. L’une des fonctions essentielles du foie est alors de filtrer et réguler ce sang ; Il capte et stocke le glucose en excès sous forme de glycogène, ce qui fait diminuer la glycémie. L’artère hépatique provient d’une ramification de l’aorte. Elle apporte au foie : • Du sang oxygéné, • Une glycémie normale, autour de 1 g/L. • Si la glycémie artérielle diminue, le foie peut : • Déstocke le glucose qu’il contient (glycogénolyse), • Produire de nouvelles molécules de glucose (néoglucogenèse). Le foie possède trois capacités majeures pour maintenir une glycémie stable : 1. Stockageduglucoseenexcès. 2. Déstockageduglucoseencasdebesoin. 3. Productiondeglucoselorsquelesréservessontinsuffisantes. 1)Stockage Au niveau du foie, le glucose est stocké sous une forme compacte appelée glycogène. Le glycogène correspond à du glucose polymérisé, c’est-à-dire un enchaînement de nombreuses molécules de glucose associées entre elles. La synthèse du glycogène à partir du glucose s’appelle : ➡ glycogénogenèse. Avantages du stockage sous forme de glycogène 1. Compactageduglucose Le fait d’associer de nombreuses molécules de glucose entre elles permet au foie de stocker beaucoup plus de glucose dans un espace réduit. → Cela augmente considérablement sa capacité de réserve. 2. Dégradationrapide Le glycogène peut être hydrolysé rapidement (cassé en glucose) par l’hépatocyte. → Cette dégradation facile permet de libérer du glucose rapidement lorsque la glycémie baisse. 2)Déstockage et libération : glycogénolyse En réponse à une diminution de la glycémie : la glycogénolyse = dégradation du glycogène. La glycogénolyse va permettre au foie de produire du glucose qui est attaché à des groupements phosphate, appelé glucose-phosphate. Dans le foie, il y a un élément très singulier et très caractéristique : le foie exprime une phosphatase, c’est-à-dire une enzyme capable de retirer les groupements phosphate. Ainsi, le glucose-phosphate, sous l’action de cette enzyme, va perdre ses groupements phosphate et se retrouver sous forme de glucose libre dans l’hépatocyte. Comme il ne possède plus de groupement phosphate, il va pouvoir traverser les membranes plasmiques et se retrouver dans le compartiment sanguin. En résumé, le déstockage du foie correspond à la glycogénolyse hépatique, qui va permettre la conversion du glycogène en glucose-phosphate ; celui-ci subira l’action d’une phosphatase, et le glucose produit pourra réintégrer le compartiment sanguin et augmenter la glycémie. 3)La néoglucogenèse (environ 90%) -Synthèse de nouvelles molécules de glucoses à partir de composés non glucidiques : - À partir de glycérol (suite à hydrolyse de TG=lipolyse) - À partir d’acides aminés glucoformateur (Ala, Val) - À partir de lactate (=molécule libéré lors d’un exercice physique intense) B)Le muscle -Capable de dégrader ce glycogène, mais il n’y a pas d’expression de la phosphatase. Ainsi, lorsque le glycogène va être dégradé en glucose-phosphate, ce glucose ne pourra pas quitter le myocyte et donc ne pourra pas augmenter la glycémie dans l’organisme. En revanche, le muscle sera capable d’utiliser ce glucose-phosphate pour réaliser la glycolyse, c’est-à-dire la dégradation du glucose afin de produire des molécules qui vont lui fournir de l’énergie via le cycle de Krebs et produire du lactate à partir du pyruvate . Le muscle est donc un organe capable de stocker du glucose grâce à la glycogénogenèse (sous forme de glycogène), mais également de dégrader le glycogène par glycogénolyse. Cependant, le glucose-phosphate formé restera dans la cellule musculaire, et c’est le myocyte qui pourra utiliser ce glucose comme source d’énergie. C)Le tissu adipeux Le tissu adipeux stocke les graisses sous forme de triglycérides, c’est-à-dire des acides gras associés à du glycérol. Le glucose, dans l’adipocyte (cellule du tissu adipeux), va être dégradé par les mécanismes de glycolyse cellulaire. Cette glycolyse va fournir des intermédiaires métaboliques qui seront ensuite capables de former des acides gras. Ces acides gras pourront se complexer avec une molécule de glycérol pour former les triglycérides, que l’on appelle TG.Le fait d’être en mesure de créer de nouveaux lipides sous forme de triglycérides correspond à la lipogenèse. Lorsque la quantité à stocker est importante, l’organisme peut soit augmenter la taille des adipocytes, soit augmenter le nombre d’adipocytes, ce qui correspond à l’hyperplasie adipocytaire D)Le rein En condition physiologique - Au niveau du néfron tout le glucose filtré est réabsorber - Il réalise 10% de la néoglucogénèse. -En cas d’une glycémie supérieur à 1,8g/L: glucose excrété dans l’urine; -Intérêt des bandelettes urinaires pour detecter la précense du glucose (glycosurie) signe de diabète. II)Régulation hormonale de la glycémie Organe au centre de la régulation : le pancréas, qui va agir à distance en libérant des molécules dans le sang. Ces molécules vont agir sur des tissus cibles : foie, muscle et tissu adipeux. La régulation de la glycémie est avant tout une régulation hormonale. Hormone : molécule libérée par une glande endocrine dans le sang. Deux hormones importantes pour la régulation glycémique, libérées par le pancréas : o Insuline (hormone hypoglycémiante) o Glucagon (hormone hyperglycémiante) Ce système a une action rapide, permettant une régulation rapide de la glycémie. A)Mise en évidence de l’importance du pancréas Lorsque qu’on retire le pancréas, on observe une élévation de la glycémie : c’est à dire que le pancréa est en mesure de libérer une hormone qui va diminuer le taux de glucose sanguin: donc libéré des molécules hypoglycémiantes. B)L’insuline :hormone hypoglycémiante -Hormone polypeptidique c’est une petite hormone avec plusieurs acides aminé associé les un avec les autres , elle est maturé en différentes étapes: Tout d’abord le pancréa va produire la préproinsuline , qui elle , va être clivée en proinsuline qui elle va être maturé soit en insuline soit en peptide C: Le pancréas est une glande qui peut libérer des enzymes dans le compartiment digestif, au niveau du duodénum : c’est sa fonction exocrine. Il est également capable de libérer des hormones dans le compartiment sanguin : c’est sa fonction endocrine. En résumé, le pancréas est une glande mixte (amphicrine), car il possède à la fois des effets endocrines et exocrines. L’insuline va être synthétisée et produite au niveau des îlots de Langerhans dans le pancréas, où l’on retrouve des cellules B (bêta) responsables de la synthèse et de la libération de l’insuline dans le sang. B.1)L’insuline: sécrétion par la cellule B Les cellules B vont être stimulées lorsque la glycémie augmente. On retrouve sur leur membrane un transporteur du glucose : GLUT2. Cette élévation de la glycémie entraîne une entrée plus importante de glucose dans la cellule bêta des îlots de Langerhans. L’augmentation de la concentration en glucose dans la cellule va conduire à un phénomène d’exocytose, c’est-à-dire la libération de l’insuline stockée dans des vésicules de sécrétion. Ainsi, une élévation de la glycémie provoque un afflux de glucose dans la cellule bêta pancréatique. Cet afflux déclenche l’exocytose de...

Diese Bestimmungen sind einzuhalten, soweit nicht in unvorhersehbaren außergewöhnlichen Einzelfällen der Betrieb nicht anders aufrecht gehalten werden kann. Arbeitszeitgesetz: Luật Thời gian Lao động (ArbZG): §3 Arbeitszeit der Arbeitnehmer: Thời gian làm việc: Thời gian làm việc trong ngày không được vượt quá 8 giờ. Có thể kéo dài đến 10 giờ nếu trong vòng 6 tháng hoặc 24 tuần, trung bình không vượt quá 8 giờ/ngày. Die werktägliche Arbeitszeit der Arbeitnehmer darf acht Stunden nicht überschreiten. Sie kann auf bis zu zehn Stunden nur verlängert werden, wenn innerhalb von sechs Kalendermonaten oder innerhalb von 24 Wochen im Durchschnitt acht Stunden werktäglich nicht überschritten werden. §4 Ruhepausen: Nghỉ giải lao: Ít nhất 30 phút đối với ca làm từ trên 6 đến 9 giờ von mindestens 30 Minuten bei einer Arbeitszeit von mehr als sechs bis zu neun Stunden 45 phút đối với ca làm trên 9 giờ Nghỉ giải lao có thể chia thành nhiều lần, mỗi lần ít nhất 15 phút. von 45 Minuten bei einer Arbeitszeit von mehr als neun Stunden insgesamt zu unterbrechen. Die Ruhepausen können in Zeitabschnitte von jeweils mindestens 15 Minuten aufgeteilt werden §5 Ruhezeit: Thời gian nghỉ: Sau khi kết thúc ca làm, người lao động phải có ít nhất 11 giờ nghỉ liên tục. Theo quy định của EU, người lao động phải được nghỉ ít nhất 1 ngày mỗi tuần, ngày nghỉ có thể linh hoạt. Do đó, nhân viên có thể làm việc tối đa 12 ngày liên tiếp nếu ngày nghỉ được bố trí phù hợp. Do yêu cầu công việc, nhân viên có thể được phân công làm ca gãy (Teildienst) trong 50% thời gian làm việc. Die Arbeitnehmer müssen nach Beendigung der täglichen Arbeitszeit eine ununterbrochene Ruhezeit von mindestens elf Stunden haben. EU-weit müssen Arbeitgeber ihren Angestellten mindestens in jeder Woche einen freien Tag gewähren. Variabel ist jedoch, auf welchen Tag dieser Ruhetag gelegt wird. Es muss nicht immer der letzte Tag der Woche sein. Dies bedeutet, dass Arbeitnehmer in der Europäischen Union zur Arbeit an bis zu 12 Tagen am Stück verpflichtet werden können, wenn der Arbeitgeber die Ruhetage entsprechend an den Anfang der ersten und das Ende der zweiten Arbeitswoche legt. Aufgrund betrieblicher Anforderungen kann der Mitarbeiter an 50% des Arbeitstages auch im sogenannten Teildienst eingesetzt werden. 4. Krankmeldungen / Arbeitsverhinderung / Zuspätkommen: Báo ốm / Không thể đi làm / Đi trễ Mọi trường hợp nghỉ làm, đi trễ và thời gian dự kiến đều phải báo ngay lập tức bằng điện thoại cho quản lý hoặc trưởng ca. Thông báo qua email, SMS, WhatsApp hoặc các hình thức khác không được chấp nhận. Theo yêu cầu, nhân viên phải nêu rõ lý do không thể làm việc. Nếu nhân viên không đến làm theo lịch mà không báo trước, có thể bị sa thải ngay lập tức. Jede Arbeitsverhinderung, jedes Zuspätkommen sowie die voraussichtliche Dauer sind unverzüglich und telefonisch an den Betriebsleiter oder mindestens den Schichtleiter zu melden. Benachrichtigungen per E-Mail, SMS, WhatsApp oder ähnliche Kommunikationsmittel sind nicht ausreichend. Auf Verlangen sind die Gründe für die Arbeitsunfähigkeit mitzuteilen. Erscheint ein Mitarbeiter trotz Eintragung im Dienstplan nicht zur Arbeit, kann dies eine fristlose Kündigung zur Folge haben. 5. Bestellung / Bonieren / Ware: Đặt món / In hóa đơn / Hàng hóa Mọi đơn hàng nhận được ở bất kỳ vị trí nào đều phải được nhập hóa đơn ngay lập tức. Nhà bếp và quầy chỉ được xuất hàng khi có hóa đơn hợp lệ. Thu tiền hoặc giao hàng không có hóa đơn được xem là hành vi gian lận và có thể dẫn đến sa thải ngay lập tức. Alle an jeder Stelle entgegengenommenen Bestellungen müssen unverzüglich und ausnahmslos boniert werden. In der Küche sowie an der Theke darf Ware ausschließlich gegen Vorlage eines Bons herausgegeben werden. Ohne ordnungsgemäßen Bon ist die Herausgabe von Ware untersagt. Das Kassieren von unbonierter Ware oder die Ausgabe von Ware ohne Bon stellt einen Betrug dar und kann zur sofortigen, fristlosen Kündigung führen. 6. Börsen / Kellner-Geldbeutel / Rücksäcke: Ví tiền / Túi đựng tiền / Ba lô Nhân viên làm việc với tiền mặt có trách nhiệm đặc biệt đối với ví tiền của mình. A) Anketten von Börsen / Verlust der Börse: Móc khóa ví / Mất ví: Ví tiền luôn phải được móc khóa. Nếu vẫn bị mất, nhân viên tự chịu trách nhiệm thiệt hại.

THE SISKIYOU, JULY 1989 by T. C. Boyle This is the way it begins, on a summer night so crammed with stars the Milky Way looks like a white plastic sack strung out across the roof of the sky. No moon, though—that wouldn’t do at all. And no sound, but for the discontinuous trickle of water, the muted patter of cheap tennis sneakers on the ghostly surface of the road and the sustained applause of the crickets. It’s a dirt road, a logging road, in fact, but Tyrone Tierwater wouldn’t want to call it a road. He’d call it a scar, a gash, an open wound in the body corporal of the forest. But for the sake of convenience, let’s identify it as a road. In daylight, trucks pound over it, big D7 Cats, loaders, wood-chippers. It’s a road. And he’s on it. He’s moving along purposively, all but invisible in the abyss of shadow beneath the big Douglas firs. If your eyes were adjusted to the dark and you looked closely enough, you might detect his three companions, the night disarranging itself ever so casually as they pass: now you see them, now you don’t. All four are dressed identically, in cheap tennis sneakers blackened with shoe polish, two pairs of socks, black tees and sweatshirts, and, of course, the black watchcaps. Where would they be without them? Tierwater had wanted to go further, the whole nine yards, stripes of greasepaint down the bridge of the nose, slick rays of it fanning out across their cheekbones—or better yet, blackface—but Andrea talked him out of it. She can talk him out of anything, because she’s more rational than he, more aggressive, because she has a better command of the language and eyes that bark after weakness like hounds—but then she doesn’t have half his capacity for paranoia, neurotic display, pessimism or despair. Things can go wrong. They do. They will. He tried to tell her that, but she wouldn’t listen. They were back in the motel room at the time, on the unfledged strip of the comatose town of Grants Pass, Oregon, where they were registered under the name of Mr. and Mrs. James Watt. He was nervous—butterflies in the stomach, termites in the head—nervous and angry. Angry at the loggers, Oregon, the motel room, her. Outside, three steps from the door, Teo’s Chevy Caprice (anonymous gray, with the artfully smudged plates) sat listing in its appointed slot. He came out of the bathroom with a crayon in one hand, a glittering, shrink-wrapped package of Halloween face paint in the other. There were doughnuts on the bed in a staved-in carton, paper coffee cups subsiding into the low fiberboard table. “Forget it, Ty,” she said. “I keep telling you, this is nothing, the first jab in a whole long bout. You think I’d take Sierra along if I wasn’t a hundred percent sure it was safe? It’s going to be a stroll in the park, it is.” A moment evaporated. He looked at his daughter, but she had nothing to say, her head cocked in a way that indicated she was listening, but only reflexively. The TV said, “—and these magnificent creatures, their range shrinking, can no longer find the mast to sustain them, let alone the carrion.” He tried to smile, but the appropriate muscles didn’t seem to be working. He had misgivings about the whole business, especially when it came to Sierra— but as he stood there listening to the insects sizzle against the bug zapper outside the window, he understood that “misgivings” wasn’t exactly the word he wanted. Misgivings? How about crashing fears, terrors, night-sweats? The inability to swallow? A heart ground up like glass? There were people out there who weren’t going to like what the four of them were planning to do to that road he didn’t want to call a road. Bosses, under-bosses, heavy machine operators, CEOs, power-lunchers, police, accountants. Not to mention all those good, decent, hard-working and terminally misguided timber families, the men in baseball caps and red suspenders, the women like tented houses, people who spent their spare time affixing loops of yellow ribbon to every shrub, tree, doorknob, mailbox and car antenna in every town up and down the coast. They had mortgages, trailers, bass boats, plans for the future, and the dirt-blasted bumpers of their pickups sported stickers that read Save a Skunk, Roadkill an Activist and Do You Work for a Living or Are You an Environmentalist? They were angry— born angry—and they didn’t much care about physical restraint, one way or the other. Talk about misgivings—his daughter is only thirteen years old, for all her Gothic drag and nose ring and the cape of hair that drapes her shoulders like an advertisement, and she’s never participated in an act of civil disobedience in her life, not even a daylit rally with minicams whirring and a supporting cast of thousands. “Come on,” he pleaded, “just under the eyes, then. To mask the glow.” Andrea just shook her head. She looked good in black, he had to admit it, and the watchcap, riding low over her eyebrows, was a very sexy thing. They’d been married three months now, and everything about her was a novelty and a revelation, right down to the way she stepped into her jeans in the morning or pouted over a saucepan of ratatouille, a thin strip of green pepper disappearing between her lips while the steam rose witchily in her hair. “What if the police pull us over?” she said. “Ever think of that? What’re you going to say—‘The game really ran late tonight, officer’? Or ‘Gee, it was a great old-timey minstrel show—you should have been there.’ ” She was the one with the experience here—she was the organizer, the protestor, the activist—and she wasn’t giving an inch. “The trouble with you,” she said, running a finger under the lip of her cap, “is you’ve been watching too many movies.” Maybe so. But you couldn’t really call the proposition relevant, not now, not here. This is the wilderness, or what’s left of it. The night is deep, the road intangible, the stars the feeblest mementos of the birth of the universe. There are nine galaxies out there for each person alive today, and each of those galaxies features 100 billion suns, give or take the odd billion, and yet he can barely see where he’s going, groping like a sleepwalker, one foot stabbing after the other. This is crazy, he’s thinking, this is trouble, like stumbling around in a cave waiting for the bottom to fall out. He’s wondering if the others are having as hard a time as he is, thinking vaguely about beta carotene supplements and night-vision goggles, when an owl chimes in somewhere ahead of them, a single wavering cry that says it has something strangled in its claws. His daughter, detectable only through the rhythmic snap of her gum, asks in a theatrical whisper if that could be a spotted owl, “I mean hopefully, by any chance?” He can’t see her face, the night a loose-fitting jacket, his mind ten miles up the road, and he answers before he can think: “Don’t I wish.” Right beside him, from the void on his left, another voice weighs in, the voice of Andrea, his second wife, the wife who is not Sierra’s biological mother and so free to take on the role of her advocate in all disputes, tiffs, misunderstandings, misrepresentations and adventures gone wrong: “Give the kid a break, Ty.” And then, in a whisper so soft it’s like a feather floating down out of the night, “Sure it is, honey, that’s a spotted owl if ever I heard one.” Tierwater keeps walking, the damp working odor of the nighttime woods in his nostrils, the taste of it on his tongue—mold transposed to another element, mold ascendant—but he’s furious suddenly. He doesn’t like this. He doesn’t like it at all. He knows it’s necessary, knows the woods are being raped and the world stripped right on down to the last twig and that somebody’s got to save it, but still he doesn’t like it. His voice, cracking with the strain, leaps out ahead of him: “Keep it down, will you? We’re supposed to be stealthy here— this is illegal, what we’re doing, remember? Christ, you’d think we were on a nature walk or something, And here’s where the woodpecker lives, and here the giant forest fern.” A chastened silence, into which the crickets pour all their Orthopteran angst, but it can’t hold. One more voice enters the mix, an itch of the larynx emanating from the vacancy to his right. This is Teo, Teo Van Sparks. Now he’s a voice on the EF! circuit (Eco-Agitator, that’s what his card says), thirty-one years old, a weightlifter with the biceps, triceps, lats and abs to prove it, and there isn’t anything about the natural world he doesn’t know. At least not that he’ll admit. “Sorry, kids,” he says, “but by most estimates they’re down to less than five hundred breeding pairs in the whole range, from BC down to the Southern Sierra, so I doubt—” “Fewer,” Andrea corrects, in her pedantic mode. She’s in charge here tonight, and she’s going to rein them all in, right on down to the finer points of English grammar and usage. If it was just a question of giving out instructions in a methodical, dispassionate voice, that would be one thing— but she’s so supercilious, so self-satisfied, cocky, bossy. He’s not sure he can take it. Not tonight. “Fewer, right. So what I’m saying is, more likely it’s your screech or flammulated or even your great gray. Of course, we’d have to hear its call to be sure. The spotted’s a high-pitched hoot, usually in groups of fours or threes, very fast, crescendoing.” “Call, why don’t you,” Sierra whispers, and the silence of the night is no silence at all but the screaming backdrop to some imminent and catastrophic surprise. “So you can make it call back. Then we’ll know, right?” Is it his imagination, or can he feel the earth slipping out from under him? He’s blind, totally blind, his shoulders hunched in anticipation of...

3.3. Cultura popular y Pop art. El arte Pop en España y las Islas Baleares El Pop Art (Art-Pop, “Arte Popular”) fue un movimiento artístico surgido a finales de los años cincuenta en Inglaterra y en Estados Unidos, y se convirtió en el estilo característico de los años sesenta. El Pop Art se inspira en el arte popular de la sociedad de consumo para crear obras accesibles al público. Puede afirmarse que el Pop Art es el resultado de un estilo de vida: la manifestación plástica de una cultura pop caracterizada por la tecnología, las modas y el consumismo, donde los objetos dejan de ser únicos para pensarse como productos en serie IMPORTANTE • El Pop Art se interpreta como una reacción al Informalismo y al Expresionismo abstracto. • Recibe influencias de la Nueva Figuración europea. • Influencias del Dadaísmo y del Surrealismo. • Los antecedentes más directos son el Neodadáismo y el collage. • I was a Rich Man 's Plaything (1947) puede considerarse la primera obra pop antes del Pop Art como movimiento. • El término “Pop Art” fue utilizado por primera vez en 1954 para denominar el arte popular que estaban creando la publicidad, el diseño industrial, el cartelismo… • El Pop Art como movimiento artístico surgió a mediados de la década de 1950 en el Reino Unido. El collage Just What Is It That Makes Today 's Homes So Different, So Appealing? (1956), de Hamilton, se considera el manifiesto del Pop Art. • En Estados Unidos, el Pop Art comienza en la década de 1960. Los dos artistas más destacados son Roy Lichtenstein y Andy Warhol. • En España destaca Equipo Crónica a finales de los 60 y primeros años 70 del s. XX. Cronología Las características fundamentales del Pop Art son: • La estética inspirada en objetos de la cultura popular de la nueva sociedad de consumo (comics, revistas, publicidad, cine…) y la idea de que no existe distinción entre cultura popular y cultura elevada: ambas son lo mismo. • Surge como reacción contraria al expresionismo abstracto, alejado de la realidad y de la comprensión del público. • Utiliza imágenes y temas del mundo de la comunicación de masas. • Temática extraída del medio urbano de las grandes ciudades del primer mundo y de sus aspectos sociales y culturales: comics, revistas, prensa sensacionalista, fotografias… • El arte se convierte en un objeto más de consumo. • Se pretendía eliminar de la obra de arte los signos de manualidad: a menudo se busca la frialdad • Muchas obras se hacen a partir de diapositivas proyectadas sobre el lienzo, plantillas, el collage y el fotomontaje, y nuevas técnicas de reproducción. • A veces se busca el efecto estético del papel couché de las revistas • Tratamiento pictórico no tradicional: el lenguaje es figurativo y representa objetos reales, pero combina cualidades y abstractas. Aunque es figurativo, no busca realismo. • Representación fría, inexpresiva. • Ausencia de planteamiento crítico: los temas se conciben como simples “motivos” gráficos que justifican la obra. En algunos autores se aplica más. -Representantes Pop Art británico (más irónico y “distanciado”) • Richard Hamilton: Just What Is It That Makes Today’s Homes So Different, So Appealing? (1956) → collage-manifiesto: hogar moderno lleno de iconos del consumo. • Eduardo Paolozzi: collages con imágenes americanas, tecnologia, cultura de masas. Pop Art estadounidense (más directo, industrial, mediático) • Andy Warhol: Campbell’s Soup Cans, Marilyn, Brillo Boxes → repeticion, serigrafía, iconos. • Roy Lichtenstein: vin etas de comic ampliadas, puntos Ben-Day, onomatopeyas (Whaam!). • Claes Oldenburg: objetos cotidianos gigantes (escultura blanda o monumental). • James Rosenquist: estética publicitaria en grandes murales. 3.3.1 La cultura popular y su relación con el Art - La relación entre la publicidad y el Pop art. La relación entre la publicidad y el Pop Art es esencial. Ambos comparten un lenguaje basado en la simplicidad, la repetición y el impacto inmediato. El Pop Art adopta las estrategias visuales de la publicidad, pero en un espacio artístico. Muchos artistas pop trabajaron previamente en el ámbito publicitario, lo que explica su dominio del diseño gráfico y la comunicación visual. En Estados Unidos, esto a veces celebraba o se burlaba del consumo exagerado, pero en España, donde no se podía decir todo lo que uno quería, usar esta estética publicitaria servía como una forma indirecta de criticar. Artistas como el Equipo Crónica podían mostrar la manipulación de los medios y las desigualdades sociales que se escondían detrás de la normalidad del consumo.

Thème 1: l’organisation politique de la société humaine On va parler de St Augustin et Thomas D’aquin Dans tout les Etats modernes, il y a nécessairement une organisation politique, elle est nécessaire pour une vie en collectivité. Les gouvernants prendront les décisions à la place et au nom des gouvernés (citoyens), c ce qu’on appelle couramment les dirigeants politiques. En définitif, dans tt les Etats il y a des gouvernants et des gouvernés. I/ La nécessité d’une organisation politique La question qui se pose est celle de savoir si tt société humaine doit être organisée politiquement ? En d’autres termes, on veut savoir si les H et les F peuvent vivre en société sans une organisation politique. La politique a pour fonction principal de présider à l’unité du groupe qui a choisi de passer de la communauté à la société. Depuis très longtemps est posée la question du pv et du politique. De nombreux politologues, sociologues et philosophes, se sont posés la question de savoir d’où vient le droit que certains ont de gouverner? Pq distingue t on dans a peu près tt les sociétés humaines d’un coté des gouvernés et de l’autre des gouvernants? A quoi sert le pv politique ? A ces questions, plusieurs réponses ont été donné qui en définitif tournent ttes autour de l’idée de légitimité. Dans la plupart des états, des pays, il est possible de soutenir l’idée que le pv (le chef) est une nécessité pour une multitude. Le pv est indispensable pour donner une certaine cohérence, c un bien pour le groupe humain car il lui apporte bcp de choses. En résumé, le pv politique serait bien pour la société humaine qu’il gouverne. Par exemple pdnt l’antiquité la conception de la Cité était celle d’une entité purement humaine. La cité était un groupe d’Hommes qui menait une vie commune en vue du bonheur collectif. Athene, en Grèce, avait d’ailleurs developer une conception collectiviste et communiste de la vie collective (en organisant des spectacles, des oeuvres musicales, afin de rendre la vie paisible). On peut tirer la conclusion comme quoi l’apparition d’un groupe composé de plusieurs hommes et femmes créé des droits mais aussi des obligations dont il faut assurer le respect —> il faut nécessairement un chef, avec la formule selon laquelle certains commande et les autres obéissent. La question de l’autorité a été considéré comme central dans tte la pensée politique puisqu’elle met en jeu le statut de la légitimité, mais cette question a donné lieu également à des interrogations, des divergences doctrinales, pq une minorité doit gouverner une majorité? St augustin est l’un des auteur à affirmer que « la nature ne donne par elle même aucun pv à l’Homme sur les autres Hommes, puisqu’ils sont égaux en raison de leur création et de leur filiation divine. Entre des êtres égaux et libres, tous appelé à la même destiné céleste, l’existence d’un pv est un scandale » il n’est pas d’accord, pour lui tt les hommes sont égaux. Au delà de cette affirmation augustinienne, tte société humaine, du fait même du nom, suppose nécessairement une structure gouvernante Pour St A°, la source du pv ne peut résider dans des volontés humaines égales entre elles, elle provient de dieu, qui peut être seul la source de l’autorité, car le pv est d’origine divine et celui qui l’exerce est tenu de respecter certaines conditions pour demeurer légitime. St A° perçois deux idées principales : Le pv doit d’abord viser la justice car c’est bien le moins que l’on puisse attendre du détenteur d’un pv qui à sa cause dans la providence, or st A°, a de la justice, la même conception que Platon ; c’est une valeur absolue, transcendante, immuable, éternel ect…. En effet, faute d’être juste, le pv disqualifie lui-même son titre gouvernant. Il perd ses vertus de gouvernant : prudence, tempérance et la force… Dans ce cas le régime devient déséquilibré puisque sa puissance demeure intacte alors que il a perdu ce qui justifiait son attribution. Il est vrai que sans la justice, tt les excès deviennent possible, ce que st A° résume en une formule « que les empires sont la justice ne sont que des ramassis de brigands ». En définitif, pour parler comme Ciceron, l’exigence augustinien de justice oblige donc l’Etat à rendre à chacun selon ce qui lui est dit. Pour lui, les gouvernants sont désignés pour être au service de la société, de la collectivité, quelque soit la société humaine considéré et qlq soit les choix politiques effectués par le gouvernant, les éléments du biens communs peuvent se ramener à deux ; l’ordre et la justice. En résumé tt l’histoire des sociétés humaines apparait comme une quête de ces deux biens, en effet, l’ordre apparait comme un bien du fait qu’il est l’ordre, la justice est une vertu évidemment politique, l’ordre est une condition de possibilité de poursuivre une politique de justice L’action politique comporte selon lui, 3 fonctions principales : service du commandement, service de prévoyance et d’anticipation, et service de conseil. S’agissant du service de commandement, cette fonction doit s’exercer sans défaillance ni excès (dictatures, dirigeants qualifiés c dictateur…). Selon lui, c’est une charge que tt détenteur du pv politique doit assumer, c’est le cas du président de la république, ou du premier ministre dans certains régimes parlementaires. Ensuite, le service de prévoyance et d’anticipation permet aux citoyens de mener une vie paisible, pour cela l’autorité doit déterminer et hiérarchiser les besoins de la pop, en d’autre terme, il doit satisfaire les demandes des citoyens. Enfin, le service du conseil oblige celui qui assure les fonctions d’autorités à utiliser son savoir et son expérience en faveur des autres. Selon lui, par cette fonction, sont alors apaisé ou prévenu les querelles, les contestations, les violences… et permet d’apaiser la paix publique. Comme tt les penseurs chrétiens de son époque, st Thomas d° est également confronté à la délicate question : comment justifier l’existence parmi les hommes d’un pv politique ? Pour lui, Dieu a fait tt les hommes égaux et libres. Dès lors, comment peut il s’introduire de l’inégalité entre des êtres égaux puisque l’existence du pv conduis inévitablement à distinguer ceux qui gouvernent et ceux qui sont gouvernés. St Thomas D° reprends la questions et la résout en 2 propositions : Le pv politique est une nécessité rationnelle, mais il a une origine divine. Car celui ci dans son rôle, est irremplaçable. Il affirme « si donc la nature de l’Homme veut qu’il vive en société, il est nécessaire qu’il y est parmi les hommes de quoi gouverner la multitude », en effet il ne peut y avoir de société humaine sans gouvernement, le gv étant destiné a faire prévaloir la paix, l’intérêt commun, l’intérêt général. En définitif, pour lui, il y a une origine divine du pv politique. Pq tt société humaine aurait elle absolument besoin d’être gouvernée, alors que l’Homme créé par Dieu, est infiniment libre, parfaitement raisonnable, et qu’il est parfaitement capable de se diriger par lui même. Or pour vivre en société, il faut nécessairement une autorité supérieure, qui aura pour mission de veiller à la réalisation du bien commun, il s’agit la d’une exigence de la nature humaine, le bien commun est le fondement et le but de tt système politique. II/ Les rapports entre le droit et la politique La politique se présente comme une activité visant à organiser la vie sociale et à harmoniser les interêts concurrents en vu d’un bien commun d’une société. Le pv doit tenter de se limiter et de s’organiser, il doit chercher une légitimation que seul le droit peut lui assurer. Le droit apparait dans ce cas comme la mesure et le limite du pv politique, dans de nbrx Etats, l’activité politique est désormais saisi par les normes juridiques, les règles juridiques. Les relations entre le droit et la politique sont aussi diverses que celles entre le droit et le pouvoir. « Le droit c’est la vie » disent les juristes. Le problème des rapports de la société politique et des droit et ainsi préalable à toute théorie de la société politique et de l’Etat. Distinct par leurs cheminements à travers les siècles et par l’objet et le mobile qui les animent, l’ordre juridique et la société politique a eu une phase récente d’évolution rapprochée. La complexité des rapports de la société politique et du droit se trouve au centre, en effet, est il possible de parler d’une activité politique sans normes et règles juridiques ? Le doit a tjs été considéré comme l’un des instruments privilégiés du pv politique dont sa fonction est créatrice d’ordres. En effet, pour organiser la vie en société, le pv politique édicte des normes juridiques, des règles juridiques, la norme la plus connue est la loi. La violation de ces normes est sanctionné par le juge. La vie politique française est ajd encadré par des règles juridiques, on parle de la juridicisation de la vie politique, de la parité homme-femme, de la limitation du cumul des mandats, le financement des partis politiques, la déclaration du patrimoine. En résumé, l‘encadrement de la vie politique par des règles juridiques est une très bonne chose dans une société démocratique tant pour les citoyens qui commence à se désintéresser de la politique mais aussi pour les hommes politiques eux même. Historiquement, le droit a été longtemps considéré comme second par rapport a la politique, comme un accessoire, et l’homme politique pouvait déroger librement à la règle politique. Les règles qui régissent la v...

Oral exam prep

# Oral exam prep # Notes ## 1. Physical Activity Guidelines **Where they came from:**&#x47;uidelines come from the WHO and national health bodies, based on decades of research showing physical activity prevents disease and improves long-term health. **Prescriptions:** * Adults: **150 min moderate** or **75 min vigorous** activity weekly * **Strength training**: at least **2 days/week** * Older adults: include **balance training** **Why:** Supports cardiovascular health, muscle and bone health, mental health, independence, and reduces risk of chronic disease. *** ## 2. Device-Based Measurement **What it is:** Using objective tools to quantify PA instead of relying on self-reports. **Examples:** * Accelerometers * Pedometers * Heart-rate monitors * GPS devices * Multi-sensor wearables **Strengths:** * Objective → no recall bias * Captures intensity, frequency, duration * Useful for population surveillance **Weaknesses:** * Expensive * Participant burden * Doesn’t capture context * Data processing is complex *** ## 3. Good Sources of PA & Health Information in Ireland * Healthy Ireland (policy + guidelines) * HSE website (public health guidance) * Sport Ireland (programmes, participation data) * CSO (population & health stats) * Healthy Ireland Survey (annual PA data) * Public Health Agency NI (if NI context needed) * WHO Europe (international guidance) *** ## 4. Measuring PA & PA-Related Outcomes **PA Measures:** * Device-based: accelerometers, pedometers * Self-report: IPAQ, GPAQ, travel surveys * Fitness tests: VO2max, step tests **PA-Related Outcomes:** * Sedentary time * Strength (handgrip, sit-to-stand) * Balance * Anthropometrics (BMI, WC) * Clinical markers (BP, glucose, lipids) * Psychosocial outcomes (motivation, QoL) **Key message:** Use multiple methods because PA is multi-dimensional. *** ## 5. Evaluating PA in Ireland * Healthy Ireland Survey (IPAQ-SF) * CSPPA Study (children & adolescents) * Sport Ireland reports * NPAP monitoring (National Physical Activity Plan indicators) *** ## 6. Men on the Move (MOM) **What it is:**&#x41; community-based PA programme targeting physically inactive middle-aged men, delivered via Sport Ireland and Local Sports Partnerships. **Core Components:** * Group sessions (2×/week) * Aerobic + strength training * Behaviour change support (goal setting, social support) * Designed for men who typically avoid structured programmes **Why it works:** * Male-friendly environment * Strong social support * Accessible and low cost * Gradual progression keeps men engaged **Evidence:** * ↑ Fitness * ↑ PA levels * ↓ Weight & waist circumference * High retention * Good acceptability *** ## 7. Study Designs in PA Research **Observational:** * **Cross-sectional:** Snapshot in time, shows associations only. * **Prospective/Longitudinal:** Follow people over time; stronger for causality. **Experimental:** * **RCTs:** Random allocation to intervention/control. Gold standard for causality (e.g., lifestyle vs. metformin for diabetes prevention). *** ## 8. Relative Risk (RR) * RR compares disease risk between groups. * Example: inactive 4% vs. active 2% → RR = 2.0 (inactive = double risk). * RR flipped: active RR = 0.5 (half risk). * **Confidence intervals:** If CI crosses 1.0 → uncertain effect. *** ## 9. Systems Approach to Physical Activity * PA is shaped by the **whole system**, not just individual choices. * Influencing sectors: transport, schools, workplaces, health services, community organisations, policy. * These sectors must collaborate, not operate separately. * Focus: change environments and structures so activity becomes easy and normal. * Small programmes alone cannot shift population activity levels. **Example:**&#x4D;en on the Move acts as a systems approach by combining community delivery, group support, social connection, and accessible structures. *** ## 10. Older Adults Staying Active in a Digital World (Webinar) **Are web/phone interventions viable?** Yes. **Why they work:** * High digital use among older adults (60–80%) * COVID showed strong engagement * Removes barriers: travel, mobility issues, weather * Home-based strength/balance is feasible * Live sessions maintain structure, social contact, and accountability **Challenges:** * Low confidence with platforms (Zoom/Teams) * Tech frustrations (sound/camera issues) * Lower motivation without in-person supervision * Harder to monitor safety (falls, conditions) * Device/internet costs * Harder to teach strength/balance online **Bottom line:**&#x45;ffective if tech support is strong, sessions are simple and safe, and social interaction is built in. Hybrid models are ideal. *** ## 11. Prompting Clients for Moderate Pace Methods: * % max HR: **64–79%** * Walking pace (mile/km time) * RPE * Talk test * Step count * Time to cover distance **Importance:** Helps people understand what “moderate” actually feels like. *** ## 12. Accelerometry **What it measures:** * Body accelerations * Frequency, duration, intensity * Often tri-axial (movement in all directions) **Advantages:** * Real-time concurrent measurement * Detailed intensity/frequency/duration * Stores weeks of data * Low burden * Relatively cheap **Disadvantages:** * Misses certain activities (cycling, stair climbing, load carrying) * Poor capture of upper-body movement when worn on hip * Data cleaning and analysis are time-consuming *** ## 13. Formative Evaluation Occurs during planning/pre-implementation. Includes: * **Problem definition:** norms, behaviours, needs assessment * **Solution generation:** evidence review, theory, practitioner input * **Logic model:** map inputs → actions → outputs → outcomes * **Pilot testing:** observe or run mini trials *** ## 14. Implementation (All Content in One Place) Implementation = putting a proven program into real-world practice. Key points: * Bridges the gap between **research evidence** and **daily practice** * Fidelity is critical → deliver as designed * Without good implementation, even excellent interventions fail * Deals with real-world barriers: staffing, resources, local culture *** ## 15. Scale-Up (All Content in One Place) Scale-up = expanding a successful program from small pilot → regional → national. **Why it matters:** * Small pilots help almost no one unless expanded * Maximises population health impact * Ensures programmes survive beyond initial funding **Requirements:** * Fidelity + flexibility * Workforce training * Sustainable funding * Monitoring & evaluation * Strong partnerships (HSE, Sport Ireland, communities) **Barriers:** * Cost * Lack of staff * Low political priority * Inequalities in access *** ## 16. RE-AIM Framework (For Implementation & Scale-Up) **Purpose:** Evaluate how well interventions work in real-world settings. **Components:** * **Reach:** Who participates? Who is left out? * **Effectiveness:** What benefits occur? Any harms? * **Adoption:** Which settings/organisations take it up? * **Implementation:** Was it delivered with fidelity? At what cost? * **Maintenance:** Does it last over time? Individual + organisational. **Why it matters:**&#x52;E-AIM helps ensure PA programmes don’t just work in theory – they work for real people, in real settings, and keep working long-term. ​ ## <u>Potential questions:</u> **✅ FORMATIVE EVALUATION / NEEDS ASSESSMENT** **1. What is a formative evaluation?**&#x49;t’s early-stage evaluation used to shape and improve a programme before it’s fully launched. **2. What is a needs assessment?**&#x49;t identifies the problem, who is affected, and what risks the programme must target. **3. Why is a needs assessment important?**&#x49;t ensures the programme addresses a real need instead of guessing. **4. How does a needs assessment guide planning?**&#x49;t tells you which behaviours, risk factors, and populations to focus on. **5. What data is used in needs assessments?**&#x53;urveys, interviews, epidemiological data, and health records. **6. How does it differ from summative evaluation?**&#x46;ormative = planning; summative = measuring results at the end. **7. What happens if you skip a needs assessment?**&#x59;ou risk designing a useless or ineffective programme. **8. How do you identify modifiable risks?**&#x42;y analysing data on behaviours and health patterns. **9. Why understand the target group?**&#x49;t makes the programme relevant and doable. **10. What tools help in needs assessment?**&#x53;urveys, focus groups, literature reviews, clinical data. **✅ SYSTEMS / PARTNERSHIP APPROACH** **11.

List the 10 Components of Fitness and demonstrate a basic understanding of all 10 Muscular endurance Cardiovascular endurance Strength Speed Power Balance Agility Reaction Time Flexibility Coordination Identify the 3 fuel sources of energy production Carbohydrates Proteins Fats Explain how long ATP lasts for in the muscles before it needs to be resynthesised. ATP lasts for 2-3 seconds preexisting without PC in the muscles with short bursts of intensity before it needs to resynthesise. Explain how ATP is resynthesised ATP is resynthesised by adding a phosphate group back onto ADP (adenosine diphosphate his requires energy. The body gets this energy from the breakdown of fuels such as: Phosphocreatine (PC) Glucose (anaerobically or aerobically) Fats (aerobically) Identify the name of the 3 energy systems ATP-PC System (also called the Phosphocreatine or Alactic system) Anaerobic Glycolytic System (also called the Lactic Acid system) Aerobic System (Oxygen system) Explain how long PC will supply energy for high intensity work before stores are depleted Phosphocreatine (PC) can supply energy for about 8–10 seconds of high-intensity work before its stores are depleted. During very explosive activities (like sprinting or jumping), PC breaks down rapidly to resynthesise ATP, but because the stores in the muscles are small, they run out quickly — usually within 8 to 12 seconds, with 10 seconds being the commonly accepted average. Explain how long it takes to fully replenish the ATP-PC system once it is depleted It takes about 2–3 minutes to fully replenish the ATP-PC system once it is depleted. Here’s the breakdown: Around 50% of phosphocreatine (PC) is restored within 30 seconds. About 75% is restored in 60 seconds. Full resynthesis usually requires 2–3 minutes, depending on fitness level and oxygen availability. So, complete recovery of the ATP-PC system takes roughly 3 minutes. Identify the fuel source used when the lactic acid system is contributing to energy production The fuel source used by the lactic acid system is glucose (or glycogen, which is the stored form of glucose in the muscles and liver). So the answer is: Glucose/Glycogen. Identify the by-product of the lactic acid system Lactic Acid is created as a by-product of the lactic acid system which comes to affect 30-60 seconds of anaerobic excelsis or short intensity excersies. Explain how this by-product can affect performance It causes a burning feeling in the muscles. It makes the muscles tire more quickly. It becomes harder to maintain power, speed, or intensity. So, the build-up of lactic acid leads to fatigue, which reduces performance during hard efforts like sprinting or fast-paced exercise. Recall how long the lactic acid system can be used (depending on intensity& duration) 30-60 seconds high intensity workouts, 1-2 minutes moderate intensity workouts Explain how to remove lactic acid from the muscles The best way to remove lactic acid is active recovery, supported by oxygen intake, hydration, and light movement to keep blood flowing. Identify the order in which the body breaks down the 3 fuels for aerobic energy contribution carbohydrates (glucose/glycogen) – used first because they are the quickest to break down for ATP. Fats (triglycerides) – used once carbohydrate stores start to decline, especially during longer, moderate-intensity exercise. Proteins (amino acids) – used last and only in small amounts, usually during prolonged exercise or when carbohydrate and fat stores are low. Explain how long the body can utilise the aerobic system (depending on fuel source availability) The aerobic system can provide energy from minutes to several hours, with carbs fuelling shorter durations at higher intensity and fats supporting longer, lower-intensity activity. Explain the following training principles F, D, I, PO, S, V Frequency, intensity, Progressive overload, Specificity, variation Summary: Frequency: How often Intensity: How hard Progressive Overload: Gradual increase Specificity: Targeted to goals Variation: Change to prevent plateau and maintain interest Identify which two principles relate directly to specificity Specificity – by definition, it means training should match the sport, muscle groups, energy systems, or fitness goals. Variation – adjusting exercises, intensity, or type can help maintain relevance to the specific goal and prevent plateau, supporting specificity over time. So, Specificity and Variation work together to ensure training is targeted and effective. Explain the importance of progressive overload in a training program Progressive overload ensures consistent improvement, helps achieve goals, and keeps training safe and effective. Recall the 5 training methods (FCIRC) Circuit, Fartlek, Interval, Resistance, Continuous. Explain the benefits of each method circuit Training Description: Series of different exercises performed in rotation. Benefits: Improves overall fitness (strength, endurance, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness). Can target multiple muscle groups. Can be adapted for all fitness levels. Keeps training varied and engaging. 2. Fartlek Training Description: “Speed play” — alternates between fast and slow running, usually outdoors. Benefits: Improves aerobic and anaerobic fitness simultaneously. Develops speed, endurance, and recovery. Flexible and less structured, reducing boredom. 3. Interval Training Description: Periods of high-intensity work followed by rest or low-intensity recovery. Benefits: Improves speed, power, and cardiovascular fitness. Increases anaerobic and aerobic capacity. Efficient for burning calories in a short time. 4. Resistance Training Description: Uses weights, resistance bands, or bodyweight to strengthen muscles. Benefits: Increases muscular strength and endurance. Improves bone density and joint stability. Boosts metabolism and helps with body composition. 5. Continuous Training Description: Steady-state exercise performed at a moderate intensity for a prolonged period (e.g., jogging, swimming). Benefits: Improves aerobic fitness and cardiovascular endurance. Strengthens the heart and lungs. Easy to monitor intensity and safe for beginners.
