Psychologistsâ dilemmas in career counselling practice
In this study, we explored main dilemmas psychologists face in career
counselling in two main professional settings: employment and education. Participants
included 24 experienced Portuguese psychologists, working in employment
(n = 14) and educational (n = 10) settings. We used consensual qualitative
research to conduct and analyse semi-structured interviews. Results revealed
dilemmasâ in five domains: neutrality, assessment, dual loyalty, role boundaries, and
confidentiality, with the typical dilemma in the domain of neutrality. Differences
between groups were found in the domains of dual loyalty and role boundaries.Dans cette étude, nous avons exploré les principaux dilemmes rencontrés
par les psychologues dans le conseil en orientation dans deux milieux professionnels
centraux: le placement et lâĂ©ducation. Parmi les participants figuraient 24 psychologues
portugais expérimentés travaillant dans des contextes de placement (n = 14)
et dâĂ©ducation (n = 10). Nous avons utilisĂ© la recherche qualitative consensuelle
pour mener et analyser les entretiens semi-structurés. Les reŽsultats ont révé lé des
dilemmes dans cinq domaines: la neutralitĂ©, lâĂ©valuation, la double loyautĂ©, les
limites du rÎle, et la confidentialité, avec le dilemme typique dans le domaine de la
neutralité. Les différences entre les groupes ont été identifiees dans les domaines de
la double loyauté et les limites du rÎle.In dieser Studie untersuchten wir die hauptsÀ chlichen Dilemmata, mit denen Psychologen in der Berufsberatung in zwei wesentlichen professionellen
Einrichtungen konfrontiert sind: Beruf und Bildung. Zu den Teilnehmern geho
šrten 24 erfahrene portugiesische Psychologen, die in Einrichtungen von Beruf
(n = 14) und Bildung (n = 10) arbeiteten. Wir verwendeten einvernehmliche
qualitative Forschung um semi-strukturierte Interviews durchzufušhren und zu
analysieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigten Dilemmata in fĂŒnf Bereichen: NeutralitĂ€t,
Beurteilung, doppelte LoyalitÀt, Rollengrenzen und Vertraulichkeit, mit dem
typischen Dilemma in der DomÀne der NeutralitÀt. Unterschiede zwischen den
Gruppen wurden in den Bereichen der doppelten LoyalitÀt und Rollengrenzen
gefunden
Difficult Life Events, Selective Migration and Spatial Inequalities in Mental Health in the UK
Objective:
Research has indicated that people moving towards neighbourhoods with disadvantaged socio-economic status have poor health, in particular mental health, but the reasons for this are unclear. This study aims to assess why people moving towards more socio-economically deprived areas have poor mental health. It focuses upon the role of difficult life events that may both trigger moves and damage mental health. This study investigates how mental health and socio-spatial patterns of mobility vary between people moving following difficult life events and for other reasons.<p></p>
Methods:
Longitudinal analysis of British Household Panel Survey data describing adultsâ moves between annual survey waves, pooled over ten years, 1996-2006 (N=122,892 observations). Respondents were defined as âdifficult life event moversâ if they had experienced relationship breakdown, housing eviction/repossession, or job loss between waves. Respondents were categorised as moving to more or less deprived quintiles using their Census Area Statistic residential ward Carstairs score. Mental health was indicated by self-reported mental health problems. Binary logistic regression models of weighted data were adjusted for age, sex, education and social class.<p></p>
Results:
The migration rate over one year was 8.5%; 14.1% of movers had experienced a difficult life event during this time period. Adjusted regression model odds of mental health problems among difficult life event movers were 1.67 (95% CI 1.35-2.07) relative to other movers. Odds of difficult life events movers, compared to other movers, moving to a less deprived area, relative to an area with a similar level of deprivation, were 0.70 (95% CI 0.58-0.84). Odds of mental health problems among difficult life event movers relocating to more deprived areas were highly elevated at 2.40 (95% CI 1.63-3.53), relative to stayers.<p></p>
Conclusion:
Difficult life events may influence health selective patterns of migration and socio-spatial trajectories, reducing moves to less deprived neighbourhoods among people with mental illness
Seletividade de inseticidas, recomendados para cucurbitåceas para Trichogramma atopovirilia Oatman & Platner (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae) em condiçÔes de laboratório
As brocas-das-cucurbitĂĄceas Diaphania spp. sĂŁo as principais pragas das cucurbitĂĄceas, podendo ocasionar perdas de atĂ© 100% na produção. A fim de reduzir o uso de inseticidas, o controle biolĂłgico, aplicado com parasitoides do gĂȘnero Trichogramma, tem-se destacado. Objetivou-se avaliar a seletividade dos ingredientes ativos abamectina, tiacloprido e clorfenapir, para Trichogramma atopovirilia Oatman & Platner (Hymenoptera: Trichogrammatidae). Para isso, 20 fĂȘmeas recĂ©m-emergidas de T. atopovirilla foram individualizadas, em tubos de vidro (2,5 cm de diĂąmetro x 8,5 cm de comprimento), e oferecidas cartelas com 30 ovos de Diaphania hyalinata (Linnaeus) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), previamente imersas por cinco segundos em calda quĂmica. Os ingredientes ativos abamectina, tiacloprido e clorfenapir nĂŁo afetaram o parasitismo de T. atopovirilia. Clorfenapir reduziu a emergĂȘncia. Abamectina e tiacloprido sĂŁo os mais recomendados no manejo integrado de pragas, pois foram os que se mostraram mais seletivos a T. atopovirilia em ovos de D. hyalinata
