The present research constitutes a theoretical approach to the complex world of the family, taking into account the deviation of behaviour as a product of the internal maladjustments of this social group. The subject has been approached fundamentally from a sociological perspective, with the use of a series of concepts and categories contributed by different thinkers, both from the sociology of the family and from other disciplines. The logic of this work establishes an approach to different approaches related to the subject, assuming as bases the systemic and psychoanalytical approaches, as well as the considerations made by Parsons regarding the interactive processes related to behavioural deviance. The author also draws on the dialectical materialist method to take up favourable explanatory positions. Special reference is made to the family as a socialising and self-realisation context, taking into account its organisation. Concrete results related to the formation of moral values and the prevention of deviant behaviour in young people are analysed and provided.

Self-perception characterizes the fact of observing oneself in order to deduce the misons of our attitudes, emotions or behaviors. They are the value a person places on his or her own personality, which can have either positive or negative implications for his or her future and lifestyle. It's by observing our own behavior that we come to certain conclusions about ourselves.In undertaking this study, we wanted to identify the self-perception of the "MWAKA" indigenous people (A.P.) as one of the factors in their subjugation or social integration by the Mbesa and Ngando in the Yahuma Territory.

The defense of democracy as a value to be safeguarded in Parliament requires the institutionalization of mechanisms both for the choice of representatives and for the control of their behavior in the exercise of their mandates, tending to produce in them an action dedicated to achieving collective goods. To do so, it must evaluate incentives and risks based on a context in which the legacy of historical and cultural experience and the effectiveness of the present formal institutions coexist, mutually influencing each other. The case analyzed in this book shows not only the search by parliamentarians for ways to enhance the use of their clientelistic mandates in favor of their electoral success, but also the insufficiency of any isolated institutional change for a substantial change in the behavior of agents inserted in a given trajectory.

A passing idea that arose from a casual chat at the end of a class in college led to the construction of two prototypes, a mathematical model, countless tests, successes, failures, two final degree works and several publications and exhibitions. As a record, these pages contain the experiences gathered throughout the research and development work carried out by engineer Felipe Chillemi together with engineers Javier Alejandro Carletto, Omar Masini and Cristian Jonathan Lanzilotta Leone.First of all, basic concepts about solar energy and measuring instruments are presented, and the different types of collectors are listed, with special emphasis on flat plate collectors. Next, the construction process is described, as well as the construction characteristics of the prototype developed and the tests carried out are detailed. Finally, with the extracted data, we proceed to the study and contrast with the mathematical model proposed by Lanzilotta, where comparisons and alternatives are established. Also, the performance of the equipment is calculated taking into account the theoretical and real conditions obtained during the test.

The latest report on the general population and housing census revealed that a significant number of the school-age population do not attend school, or have left school early. Only 50.61% of children in the urban commune of Say attended school in 2012. In order to better understand the reasons for such a catastrophe, in a context where education for all is advocated, we will attempt through this book, and by adopting a qualitative approach, to understand the perceptions that parents have of school and the strategies they put forward to enroll or not their children in the urban commune of Say.

The present study analysed the learning difficulties of hyperactive students in the Teaching - Learning Process of the Complete Primary School of Marrupa-Sede, seeking to identify the hyperactive students of the School in allusion; to verify how teachers work in classrooms with hyperactive students; to describe the methods used by teachers in the Complete Primary School of Marrupa-Sede; to propose strategies to teachers for efficient and effective work with hyperactive children.

Skikda's coastline boasts a number of important structures (fishing, oil industry and tourism). At the same time, urbanization is threatening biodiversity and leading to the gradual degradation of this coastal ecosystem. Moreover, this environment has not previously been studied to assess marine organisms, particularly those of intertidal rocky substrates. Our objectives were to assess the composition of the Patella genus and to study its abundance and distribution along the coastline. These patellogasteropods are excellent bioindicators of marine pollution, and are used in several international networks. Monitoring was carried out from September 2008 to August 2009, at the same time for all stations. The twelve stations are rocky sites exposed to waves, and positioned along the Gulf of Skikda from "la plage Saf Saf" to the east (36°52¿57¿N; 6°55¿28¿E) to "la plage Ravin des Lions" to the west (36°54¿84¿N; 6°53¿13¿E). Some have the particularity of cumulating several sources of discharge (urban and/or industrial) while others are supposedly remote from any anthropogenic activity.

Is there not a more widespread belief in the collective consciousness than that of the inherent rigour of all law? Isn't the famous maxim dura lex, sed lex? Doesn't the popular proverb say that the inflexible person is as rigid as justice? In other words, the rule of law is antithetical to the concepts of tolerance and humanity. Justifying facts, in that they represent an exception to the mechanical application of criminal law, would seem to symbolise moderate justice, contrary to these absolutist conceptions. But what is the value and scope of these objective grounds for lack of criminal responsibility in our current penal system? What are we to make of contemporary applications of self-defence and the state of necessity? The conclusion is clear: justification, which is currently fragmented, needs a new general theory that is more objective and less restricted. As a mechanism at the crossroads of the major issues in criminal law, an interest in justification makes it possible to re-examine more broadly the legitimacy of the right to punish and the purpose of the offence.

African companies are generally portrayed in the literature as underperforming. As a result, a number of researchers have sought to identify the causes of these companies' poor performance. Two main theses are culturalism and institutionalism. The first incriminates the indiscriminate transfer of Western management methods to Africa and the damaging effects of African culture. The second is the weakness of African institutions. On the basis of interviews conducted with a number of employees of private companies in Kinshasa, our research shows that, in addition to the culturalist and institutionalist causes already mentioned in the literature, there are other causes linked to employees' social and working conditions that have a negative impact on the performance of African companies in general, and Congolese companies in particular.

A real estate crisis known as the subprime mortgage crisis broke out in the United States in the summer of 2007. It shook the global banking system, leading to the collapse of Lehman Brothers and many other financial institutions. How did this crisis originate, and how did it come to affect banking and stock market systems worldwide? The subject of this book straddles the real estate market, the money market and the economy as a whole. So many areas on which the well-being of the men and women who inhabit this world depends. The era of globalization that we live in has sealed a common destiny where the actions of some in a given country impact the lives of others elsewhere in the world. It is therefore important to understand the phenomena occurring in other parts of the world, and in other spheres of decision and action, to know how they impact, or will impact, our lives. Through this book, we hope to contribute to a better understanding of the crisis that shook the world of finance in the summer of 2007.

The text of the book refers to a study conducted in the primary care network of the city of Boa Vista-RR. Compreende a prevalência da adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso entre pacientes diabéticos e seus fatores condicionantes. In addition to intervention strategies to improve treatment adherence. We hope to contribute to new studies of this nature, considering that Diabetes is a chronic disease, of silent nature and that presents itself in increasing estimates of cause of death.

Every day, new studies show the importance of physical exercise in fighting sedentariness, preventing diseases and maintaining the population's health and quality of life. The worsening of obesity increases the incidence of many diseases known as co-morbidities, seriously altering the health condition of obese and/or overweight individuals. In view of a possible solution capable of reversing and/or alleviating this alarming picture of hormonal dysfunctions, arising from the complications that obesity provides, such as metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases, training methods are being studied. The intention of this study is to analyze aspects of the effectiveness for the improvement of the corporal composition and weight loss of the obese individual, using the Interval Training, training that aims to provide many benefits.

Tourism has both positive and negative environmental, economic and social impacts. The objective of this paper is to provide a policy alternative that seeks to mitigate the negative effects of tourism and enhance its positive effects while combating inequality and poverty. It proposes the development of an integral strategic plan for the implementation of sustainable tourism projects through the granting of microcredits. This tool seeks to reach the most vulnerable populations of society by providing them with access to credit through a self-sustainable programme focused on a high-impact activity that is constantly growing.

The problem of treatment of terminal glaucoma in the world's ophthalmology is still a leading one. Despite advances in the study of the normal physiology of intraocular pressure, in drug treatment of glaucoma due to the appearance of new types of drugs, as well as constantly improving types of surgical and laser interventions, terminal glaucoma is still one of the main causes of irreversible blindness. Drug therapy for terminal glaucoma is often ineffective due to marked dystrophic changes in the drainage system of the eye and the ciliary body, and iris scarring. Such patients are usually treated conservatively until pain syndrome appears, and since drug treatment is ineffective while it is developing, surgical intervention is the only option.

When facing people living on the streets one realizes that they have not exercised their fundamental rights governed by the Constitution of the Republic of 1988, such as the right to health, education, work, housing. Even after the implementation of the National Policy for the Homeless Population that lists principles, guidelines and goals for this population, it has still prevailed the large number of homeless people who are destitute and helpless of their rights, so that still prevails discrimination and omission of the State and society, which ends up interfering negatively in the removal of the streets and the pursuit of rights. This study has as academic and social relevance the goal of discussing about the Fundamental Rights of Homeless People, and also seeks to analyze the inefficiency of the existing public policy, analyzing the possible issues of what is currently being experienced by Homeless People in the city of Barretos.

This book addresses an important topic, an area that is becoming more and more relevant in the administrative and marketing field: The Corporate Image, which is increasingly valued and identified by companies as an administrative management tool; but, before it emerges the doubt of what is and what role comes to take the Corporate Image in the current company?That is why applying and taking into account several concepts, from general to particular management, with a vision and conceptualization of marketing, we will study the case of the Voces de Alabanza choir, whose bases are not only focused on offering services through music, but also in the entire organization and the importance of good communication with their current and potential customers.

Professor Myra R. Carrasco García. Vice-President of the Alzheimer Society of Cuba. She has run the memory clinic since 1988, and behavioural disorders in patients with dementia are one of the main sources of concern for families and referrals to the clinic. Therefore, this brief information can serve as a basis for many people interested in this topic to improve the quality of life of these people.

This work is the final product of an interdisciplinary academic exercise of the course "Management of natural resources and environment", carried out by the students of the PhD in science, technology and environment of the National University of the Altiplano, Puno, Peru. It was an expedited research project, generated by a group of eleven professionals - all with Master's degrees - from the fields of engineering, technology, science and environment. We hope that this document will motivate further scientific production of light towards genuine sustainability in anthropic work.

Talking about repetition in the novelistic project of the New Novel requires an obligatory stop in order to decipher its mechanisms and its various uses. the writing of these new novelists is characterised by a loss of clarity and transparency, it constantly invites the reader to make an effort to decipher its content. the reader must invest himself in this chaot in order to solve the enigmas of this writing that disturbs the reader's concentration. If the New Novel goes against other past currents, and recognises itself as a deconstruction in itself, even for its own pioneers, there are differences between them in terms of the volume of importance devoted to their chosen subjects of study. Nathalie Sarraute, for example, devotes a great deal of attention to the study of the expressions of the depths of her characters, while Alain Robbe-Grillet leaves the object, in its various forms, as a centre of interest for him.

The present study aimed to analyse whether hydrogymnastics can be assumed as a management tool in the cost of medication consumed, health, functional fitness, quality of life and mood states of institutionalised elderly aged 65 years or more. The influence of the levels of education on these variables was also verified. Participants were 54 elderly people from the city of Cuiabá/MT, of both sexes, distributed by a group of hydrogymnastics (GE; N=40), organized and planned, existing for more than one year and by a control group that does not practice physical exercise (GI; N=14).

This book seeks to determine how professional identity and social responsibility management are related in university nursing students in the city of Pasco. The methodology used was framed within the quantitative research approach, the design used was non-experimental, cross-sectional. The sample consisted of 38 Pasco nursing students who developed the university social responsibility program during 2018.These results were observed: 55.26% of the nursing students reflect high professional identity, 31.58% medium professional identity; and, 13.16% low professional identity. Likewise, with respect to the management of university social responsibility in nursing, 65.79% of the students are very empowered, 26.32% are empowered, and 7.89% are not very empowered.This leads to the conclusion that professional identity and the management of social responsibility are significantly related with a moderate intensity.

The introduction of digital technologies in industry has had a significant impact on the design and manufacture of electrical equipment. This development has been influenced by standards from the computer and automotive industries. The exchange of digital information has necessitated the use of communication networks, which in turn has led to the use of prefabricated connectors and connections. An industrial network serves the same purpose as a traditional network, i.e. the transmission of information between several machines. However, unlike traditional networks, which generally involve computers, industrial networks enable communication between different types of devices such as computers, PLCs, sensors, actuators and controllers.

The study of vocational guidance is a necessity. It contributes to the preparation of children, adolescents and young people to make a conscious choice of their future profession. The development of activities centred on individual and group actions that promote the formation of affective experiences based on the link with the object of the profession, through the relationship between the cognitive and the affective, guarantees the rescue of positive feelings in students about this and makes it possible to achieve higher levels of self-determination and better quality in their motivation towards a career in preschool education.

The TRAP (reverse arterial perfusion sequence) is a series of complications in monochorionic twin pregnancy in which the affected twin (fetus with cardia) is perfused backwards by the 'pumping' twin through a large arterio-arterial (A-A) and veno-venous (V-V) anastomosis, in which the twin with cardiac arrest is born with a somewhat developed body and limbs, but a partially formed head and face, due to a reduced supply of oxygen and nutrients; with severe malformations, an abnormal lack of development, that in 50% of cases the normal twin dies because of heart failure and prematurity. We present a case of acardio anceps fetus (Das K.1902), female, for the first time for the Department of Sucre, Colombia, S.A.; product of a multiple pregnancy of a mother of 23 years, from Centro Alegre Tuchin, Cordoba, referred by a gynaecological specialist in Asplejo.

This study deals with the use of photography as a research tool in the Social Sciences and especially in Anthropology, which emerges in the late nineteenth century early twentieth century, addressing macrosocial issues of social reality. Also highlighting the importance of the Mundiologist Sebastião Salgado, to understand the importance of the use of photography in the Social Sciences worldwide, as the use and repercussions of photodocumentary of social denouncement. The text is organized in three parts: The first part will discuss the use of photographic images as a research methodology in the Social Sciences; the second part will deal with Sebastião Salgado's work and thought; and a third part will address the worldview of Sebastião Salgado and the planetary era of image diffusion.

Attention to vocational training and professional orientation responds to national priorities of the Ministry of Education and territorial priorities in Cuba. It is recognized as a process aimed at preparing students for the self-determination of their profession, which allows them to access university studies in accordance with their individual and social aspirations. The above mentioned allows identifying the need to strengthen this process in the Pre-university Vocational Colleges of Exact Sciences in order to favor the direct entrance of students to careers in exact and technical sciences. This book offers a theoretical analysis and an empirical evaluation of this process in the context of the Pre-university Vocational Institute of Exact Sciences in Cuba. Result of the project: The professionalization of the teacher in the Pre-university Vocational Institute of Exact Sciences; associated to the Sectorial Program "Cuban Educational System. Perspectives of development" of the Ministry of Education.

Cognitive linguistics emerged on the basis of the scientific direction, which had the greatest development in psychology - cognitivism. The focus of cognitivism is the mechanism of human thinking activity, preservation and conceptualization of the received information.This work from the system-structural aspect consists in a systematic description of stylistically marked units, forming a stylistic field from the perspective of discourse functionality, conditioned by the nature of its subjects' activity.

Results: This study showed that the FBR strategy was perceived by the players involved as having been well integrated into the health system with a view to improving the quality of care and services. On the other hand, in addition to the motivation of certified staff, limitations were raised concerning the inadequacy of coaching due to the absence of an APP, and the demotivation of RECOs due to the non-payment of RECO bonuses. Conclusion: There is ample evidence to support Outcome-Based Financing as an approach to strengthening the health system of a low-income country, provided it is implemented from a holistic perspective acting on all pillars, namely community participation, since RECOs are the actors in RBF performance.

These days, there's more and more talk about the Internet signal problem in various sectors, and the IT resources needed to overcome it. At present, the use of a single internet signal in large companies prevents them from producing good results in a short space of time in the event of breakdowns. When there's a torrential downpour, the Internet connection poses a problem, and especially when a signal-receiving antenna is offset from the satellite orbit, there's signal distortion or loss. This work enables us to provide an effective solution to this problem, using several Internet Service Providers without incurring the expense of buying a router for each provider. We therefore propose to set up a routing strategy based on line separation, and a relay system in the event of a signal interruption from one of the ISPs. We have configured a single corporate router with two ISPs: MICROCOM for the one-stop shop, and VODANET for staff or user Internet use.

Seed is one of the key inputs for good rice production. Its multiplication requires more care and technical skill than simple paddy production. The aim of this study was to assess the efficiency of rice seedbeds in the Koussin-lélé irrigated perimeter in the commune of Covè, Benin. All 141 farmers of the perimeter were surveyed on their production of the first cycle of the 2014-2015 agricultural season. The operating account and production frontier methods were applied. It emerged that 1 FCFA invested in IR 841 rice seed production generates 1.66 FCFA as profit after six months of activity. The average technical, allocative and economic efficiency indices were 0.93, 0.92 and 0.85 respectively. Achieving technical performance would enable seed growers, with the same combination of resources, to achieve 5198 kg/ha on average, compared with 4955 kg/ha at present. Suggestions were put forward to enable seed growers to improve their level of efficiency.
