A system approach to the self: Interpretive phenomenological analysis.

The study aims to determine the life experiences that affect the formation of permanent identity features that form the self during adolescence and to determine the importance of these identity features for adolescents. For this purpose, in-depth interviews were conducted with 8 participants, 4 of whom were women and 4 of whom were men, between the ages of 22-24, to understand the life experiences that affect their self-development during childhood and adolescence. Four of the participants are university students, and 4 of them are high school graduates. Interviews and analyses were carried out within the Interpretive phenomenological analysis principles framework. According to the results of the analysis obtained from the interviews, it was found that the most influential factor on self-development was family communication orientation in childhood, and the participants who grew up in families with a conversation orientation had more positive emotions during childhood, saw themselves as part of the family more, and established more successful friendships. On the other hand, participants from families with a conformity orientation had more negative feelings in childhood, had a lower sense of belonging to the family, and were found to be less successful in friendships.

Suicide resilience, identity crisis and quality of life in burned adolescents.

AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between identity crisis and suicide resilience and quality of life in adolescents with burns in Iranian society. DESIGN: A cross-sectional study. METHODS: Four hundred thirty adolescents with burn in three hospitals were selected via convenience sampling. They completed questionnaires online. Data were analysed by SPSS software version 22. RESULTS: Findings showed a strong and inverse correlation between identity crisis with suicide resilience (r = -.92, p < .001) and quality of life (r = -.87, p < .001). Variables of suicide resilience, being a child of a divorced family, cause of burns, extent of burn, financial situation, gender and age can predict 68.74% of the variance in identity crisis in these patients. PATIENT OR PUBLIC CONTRIBUTION: Adolescents with burns suffer from an identity crisis, and although they report high resilience to suicide, they have a mediocre quality of life. Therefore, it is suggested that basic planning and extensive support be taken to improve physical and mental health, promote the quality of life and consequently reduce the identity crisis in these adolescents.

Aspectos relacionados ao estudante na construção da identidade médica: uma revisão integrativa / Student-related aspects in the construction of the Medical Identity: an integrative review

Resumo: Introdução: A construção da identidade médica (IM) é fenômeno dinâmico influenciado por fatores relacionados ao estudante, ao ambiente educacional e à sociedade. Objetivo: Este estudo teve como objetivo sintetizar o conhecimento produzido a respeito dos aspectos referentes ao estudante na construção da IM. Método: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de estudos empíricos publicados em periódicos indexados na MEDLINE e LILACS, utilizando a expressão medical identity e os descritores identity crisis, social identification, physician's role e professional role. Os critérios de inclusão foram: textos completos disponíveis em português, espanhol, francês ou inglês de estudos empíricos sobre fatores que influenciam na formação da IM com foco nos aspectos relacionados ao estudante e tendo médicos ou estudantes de graduação em Medicina como participantes. Resultado: Na primeira etapa, identificaram-se 1.365 artigos. Foram triados 194 artigos para leitura em profundidade. Destes, incluíram-se 18 para análise temática com classificação em categorias em diálogo com a literatura, tendo como base o conceito de IM saudável. A maioria dos artigos foi publicada na última década. Identificaram-se três categorias: expectativa versus realidade, referente ao que o estudante pensa sobre o que um médico é ou deveria ser; médico "super-herói", relativa à percepção caricaturada da medicina criada pelos próprios alunos e oferecida pela sociedade por meio de programas, séries e filmes televisivos; e modelagem de papéis, que diz respeito à importância da experiência prática do estudante supervisionada por um preceptor ou docente. A IM construída ao longo do curso médico influencia na forma como a medicina é exercida e, quando ela não é congruente com a realidade que o recém-formado encontra, provoca sofrimento no médico e interfere na atuação profissional dele. Conclusão: Instituições de ensino, professores e preceptores devem estar atentos às expectativas e às idealizações de seus alunos sobre o que é ser um médico e o papel desse profissional na sociedade, de maneira a promover intervenções que auxiliem em uma construção identitária mais saudável e mais resiliente às intempéries peculiares à profissão médica.

Abstract: Introduction: The Medical Identity (MI) construction is a dynamic phenomenon influenced by factors related to the student, the educational environment and society. Objective: To synthesize the produced knowledge about the student-related aspects regarding the construction of the MI. Method: This is an integrative review of empirical studies published in journals indexed in the MEDLINE and LILACS databases, using the term Medical Identity and the descriptors Identity Crisis, Social Identification, Physician's Role and Professional Role. The inclusion criteria were: full texts available in Portuguese, Spanish, French or English of empirical studies on factors that influence the development of MI focused on student-related aspects and having physicians or undergraduate medical students as participants. Results: In the first stage, 1,365 articles were identified. Subsequently, 194 articles were chosen for in-depth reading. Of these, 18 were included for thematic analysis with classification into categories in dialogue with the literature, based on the concept of healthy MI. Most articles were published in the last decade. Three categories were identified: expectation versus reality, related to what the student thinks about what a physician is or should be; the 'superhero' physician, related to the caricatured perception of Medicine created by the students themselves and offered by society through TV programs, series and films; and role modeling, which concerns the importance of the student's practical experience supervised by a preceptor or teacher. The MI built throughout the medical course influences the way medicine is practiced and when it is not consistent with the reality that the recently graduated student encounters, it causes suffering to the physician and interferes with their professional performance. Conclusion: Educational institutions, teachers and preceptors must be aware of the expectations and ideals of their students about what it means to be a physician and the role of this professional in society, aiming to promote interventions that help establishing a healthier and more resilient identity construction, particular to the medical profession.

Racialization of public discourse: portrayal of Islam and Muslims.

Many developed countries like the USA, UK, Canada and European countries have diverse communities, including Muslim community outreach, as a result of immigration turning the world into a global village for all religions. Persecuting any one religion can lead to unrest and damage the calm of the society at large. This study critically examines the trends and research findings on Islamophobic discourse from 2001 to 2022 by investigating how linguistic strategies have been employed to present Muslims and Islam, the racialization of Muslims, the sense of identity crisis, and the way Muslims encounter and resist Islamophobia. An empirical study is also conducted to analyze the media discourse on recent incidents in Canada and New Zealand. For this purpose, 56 research articles are retrieved from the databases of four publishers: Taylor & Francis, Sage Publication, Pluto Journals, and Science Direct. A systematic review methodology and content analysis of the elected articles reveals that qualitative methodology was used in most articles and the UK and the US are the focal countries where most of the Islamophobia studies are carried out. Interviews and print media are found to be the preferred data samples for Islamophobia research. The most common theme in the articles is how anti-Muslim ideology was constructed by painting negative images of Muslims and Islam and subsequently presenting them as 'others.' The multiple effects of Islamophobia was paid considerable attention by the researchers of the reviewed articles. Themes receiving less attention are Islamophobia for political gain, identity crises, and the racialization of Muslims, whereas the factors behind Islamophobia received scant attention. The development of Islamophobia as a topic within the field of critical discourse analysis has been understudied. A critical discourse analysis of two recent incidents in Canada (2021) and New Zealand (2019) shows how various linguistic strategies are employed to construct negative images of Muslims and Islam.

Traumatic chain: Korean-American immigrants' transgenerational language and racial trauma in Native Speaker.

The premise of this study is to look at the intergenerational transferal of language and racial trauma of Asian immigrants in general and Korean-American immigrants in particular to a western country, the United States of America. This study investigates trauma from a psychological standpoint, based on Chang-Rae Lee's novel Native Speaker. In describing a marker of citizenship, the novel's title also points to who is the native language speaker and who is a native of a country, and why one who is not may be excluded. The Korean immigrants' vulnerability to the English language and racial differences highlights their status as minority "others," and they suffer from transgenerational trauma. As a result of transgenerational traumatic effects, Henry (the protagonist) has various traumatic side effects such as dysphasia, aphasia, and parasomnia and finally leaves no stone unturned to recuperate from trauma. The Trauma of the Unspeakable theory by Michelle Balaev is used in this article to show how trauma affects people's minds.

A construção da Identidade Médica na concepção de médicos recém-graduados / The construction of Medical Identity in the conception of newly graduated physicians

A Identidade Médica (IM) é uma contrução social dinâmica e é influenciada por fatores relacionados ao estudante, ao docente/preceptor e à sociedade, além de moldar a forma como o futuro médico exercerá sua profissão. O objetivo desta tese é analisar a construção da IM e os fatores que a influenciam a partir das percepções de médicos recém-graduados, além de realizar uma revisão da literatura atual, pesquisar os fatores intrínsecos e extrínsecos formadores da IM, a influência dos primeiros anos do exercício profissional e das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais (DCN) no perfil e na consolidação da IM. Estudo observacional de corte transversal de caráter qualitativo realizado com médicos-residentes de um hospital universitário de um grande centro urbano brasileiro. Os dados foram coletados por meio de doze entrevistas virtuais no período de setembro a novembro de 2021 e três grupos focais presenciais, com seis participantes cada, em agosto de 2022. O material produzido foi submetido à análise de conteúdo, seguindo os seguintes passos: leitura e releitura flutuante, busca de semelhanças e divergências, classificação em categorias temáticas, contextualização espaço-social-temporal, discussão com a literatura científica e síntese interpretativa. Além disso, foram pesquisadas as bases de dados PubMed®/MEDLINE, SciELO, LILACS, Cochrane Library e BVS para realização da revisão da literatura. Para a revisão, estruturação da fundamentação teórica e discussão dos dados da pesquisa, foram estudados, na íntegra, os 154 artigos encontrados. Pouco mais da metade (51%) dos artigos trata-se de pesquisas empíricas que possuem como foco um dos três eixos formadores da IM (estudante / docente / sociedade), enquanto 40% são revisões da literatura e 9% são editoriais. A maioria das pesquisas (73%) foi desenvolvida no eixo América do Norte / Europa. Apesar disso, o Brasil configura-se como o 5º país em número de publicações. O material produzido no campo revelou que as expectativas dos estudantes com relação ao médico que imaginam se tornar, a influência de docentes e preceptores e o perfil de médico exigido pela sociedade moldam a IM dos participantes. Os primeiros anos da carreira profissional constituem um período de turbulência e de conflitos identitários que são suavizados durante a Residência Médica, quando esta se configura como um ambiente de prática e de ensino-aprendizagem salutar. Os médicos-residentes desconhecem as DCN e isso impacta negativamente na forma que vivenciam as expectativas da sociedade traduzidas pelas Diretrizes. Na percepção dos médicos recém-graduados, há uma incongruência entre o que é preconizado nas DCN, a formação que é efetivamente oferecida nos cursos de medicina e o mercado de trabalho que eles encontram após estarem habilitados a exercer a profissão. Essa incongruência gera uma IM pouco saudável que é prejudicial ao exercício qualificado da profissão e gera sofrimento e insatisfação nos novos médicos. Os resultados desse estudo podem contribuir com o trabalho daqueles envolvidos no processo de formação identitária dos médicos, auxiliando-os a empreender ações que favoreçam a formação de uma IM mais saudável em benefício dos atuais e futuros médicos e da população por eles assistida.(AU)

The Medical Identity (MI) is a dynamic social construction and is influenced by factors related to the student, the professor/preceptor and society, in addition to shaping the way the future physician will exercise his profession. The objective of this thesis is to analyze the construction of MI and the factors that influence it based on the perceptions of newly graduated physicians, in addition to carrying out a review of the current literature, researching the intrinsic and extrinsic factors that form MI, the influence of the first years of professional practice and the National Curriculum Guidelines (NCG) for Brazilian Medicine courses in the profile and consolidation of MI. A qualitative, cross-sectional observational study carried out with resident physicians at a university hospital in a large Brazilian urban center. Data were collected through twelve virtual interviews from September to November 2021 and three face-to-face focus groups, with six participants each, in August 2022. The material produced was subjected to content analysis, following the steps below: reading and fluctuating rereading, search for similarities and divergences, classification into thematic categories, spatio-social-temporal contextualization, discussion with the scientific literature and interpretative synthesis. In addition, the PubMed®/MEDLINE, SciELO, LILACS, Cochrane Library and BVS databases were searched to carry out the literature review. For the review, structuring of the theoretical foundation and discussion of the research data, the 154 articles found were studied in full. A little more than half (51%) of the articles are empirical research that focus on one of the three axes that form MI (student / teacher / society), while 40% are literature reviews and 9% are editorials. Most of the surveys (73%) were developed in the North America / Europe axis. Despite this, Brazil ranks 5th in number of publications. The material produced in the field revealed that the students' expectations regarding the doctor they imagine becoming, the influence of professors and preceptors and the profile of a doctor required by society shape the participants' MI. The first years of the professional career constitute a period of turbulence and identity conflicts that are softened during the Medical Residency Program, when it is configured as an environment of practice and healthy teaching-learning. Medical residents are unaware of the NCG and this negatively impacts the way they experience society's expectations translated by the Guidelines. In the perception of newly graduated physicians, there is an inconsistency between what is recommended in the NCG, the training that is effectively offered in medical courses and the job market that they find after being qualified to practice the profession. This incongruity generates an unhealthy MI that is harmful to the qualified exercise of the profession and generates suffering and dissatisfaction in new physicians. The results of this study can contribute to the work of those involved in the physicians' identity formation process, helping them to undertake actions that favor the formation of a healthier MI for the benefit of current and future physicians and the population they assist.(AU)

Overcoming the challenge of COVID-19: A grounded theory approach to rural nurses' experiences.

Introduction: This study inquires into nurses' changing perceptions with regard to the efforts in preparation for working in a COVID-19 ward in the rural Japanese context. Methods: Data were collected using ethnographic methods and semi-structured interviews among 16 nurses working in the COVID-19 ward of a rural community hospital in Japan. A grounded theory approach was used for the qualitative analysis. Results: In total, 70 hours' observation and participation were completed, and 27 pages of field notes were taken and used for the analysis. In addition, 32 interviews were conducted with 16 participants. Four themes emerged from the data: pre-COVID-work perceptions, overcoming fear, shadow cast by working in the COVID-19 ward, and an integrated approach to the fear of COVID-19. The nurses initially felt unpredictable fear. However, the establishment of standard approaches and practices for COVID-19 gave them confidence in their safety and helped them regain sympathy for patients. Nevertheless, working on COVID-19 cases negatively affected their activities outside of the ward, and some of them developed an identity crisis as they feared for the future. Conclusion: Better teamwork, comprehensive understanding of COVID-19, and continuous provision of proper knowledge in rural hospitals should be driven by appropriate understanding and sympathy for nurses and patients in COVID-19 wards. The results of this study can be applied to mitigate nurses' fear, improve teamwork, and ensure understanding of COVID-19 by all medical staff in rural hospitals.

Identidades profissionais em construção: conjecturas sobre a enfermagem no pós-pandemia de covid-19 / Identidades profesionales en construcción: conjeturas sobre enfermería en la post-pandemia de covid-19 / Professional identities in construction: conjectures about nursing in the post-pandemic of covid-19

Objetivo: compreender as percepções dos profissionais de enfermagem em relação aos possíveis desfechos decorrentes da pandemia da COVID-19 para a profissão. Método: estudo de abordagem qualitativa, fundamentada na História Oral, mediante entrevista e aplicação de um questionário socioeconômico/profissional, realizado na unidade de internação de uma instituição de saúde de grande porte, localizada no município de São Paulo, capital do estado de São Paulo. Resultados: foram extraídas das entrevistas duas categorias relevantes: Crença no fortalecimento da enfermagem no pós-pandemia e Descrença na melhora da imagem da enfermagem no pós-pandemia. Considerações finais: as identidades profissionais são construídas mediante as interações sociais entre o eu (indivíduo) e o outro (grupos sociais e institucionais). Esta interação é marcada por conflitos que resultam na reconstrução desta identidade e com possíveis reflexos na prática profissional.

Objetivo: comprender las percepciones de los profesionales de enfermería sobre los posibles resultados derivados de la pandemia de COVID-19 para la profesión Método: estudio cualitativo, basado en la Historia Oral, a través de entrevistas y aplicación de un cuestionario socioeconómico/profesional, realizado en la unidad de hospitalización de una gran institución de salud, ubicada en la ciudad de São Paulo, capital del estado de São Paulo. Resultados: de las entrevistas se extrajeron dos categorías relevantes: Creencia en el fortalecimiento de la enfermería en el post-pandemia e Incredulidad en el mejoramiento de la imagen de enfermería en el post-pandemia. Consideraciones finales: las identidades profesionales se construyen a través de interacciones sociales entre la yo (individuo) y el otro (grupos sociales e institucionales). Esta interacción está marcada por conflictos que resultan en la reconstrucción de esta identidad y con posibles reflejos en la práctica profesional.

Objective: to understand the perceptions of nursing professionals in relation to possible outcomes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic for the profession. Method: qualitative study, based on Oral History, through interviews and application of a socioeconomic/professional questionnaire, conducted in the hospitalization unit of a large health institution, located in the city of São Paulo, capital of the state of São Paulo. Results: two relevant categories were extracted from the interviews: Belief in the strengthening of nursing in the post-pandemic and Disbelief in the improvement of nursing image in the post-pandemic. Final considerations: professional identities are constructed through social interactions between the me (subject) and the other (social and institutional groups). This interaction is marked by conflicts that result in the reconstruction of this identity and with possible reflexes in professional practice.

A reestruturação dos papéis de gênero e a criação das novas masculinidades / Restructuring of gender roles and creating new masculinities

OBJETIVO: Identificar a visão do homem cisgênero diante dos novos papéis de gênero na sociedade brasileira contemporânea e da construção das novas masculinidades. MÉTODO: Trata de uma pesquisa descritiva, quantitativa e corte transversal, composta por uma amostra de 38 universitários do sexo masculino, com idade igual ou superior a 18 anos, acadêmicos dos diversos cursos de uma universidade pública estadual da cidade de Montes Claros - MG. O instrumento utilizado foi um questionário semiestruturado contendo vinte e três perguntas fechadas. RESULTADOS: Foi possível identificar um maior retraimento por parte dos sujeitos pretos que, em sua maioria (62,5%), afirmam não falarem sobre sentimentos. A maior discrepância observada se relaciona com as áreas de estudo, sendo que acadêmicos do Centro de Ciências Sociais Aplicadas, Centro de Ciências Exatas e de Tecnologia e Centro de Ciências Biológicas e da Saúde afirmam ter dificuldade em ser e fazer o que desejam por receio da reação das pessoas, enquanto os do Cento de Ciências Humanas dizem nunca ter essa dificuldade, além de ser o único centro que quase nunca busca se informar sobre as novas construções sociais dos papéis de gênero. CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados obtidos evidenciam as diferenças promovidas pela área de estudo como mais influentes do que a raça ­ não ignorando sua influência­ e podem apontar um caminho para expandir os debates sobre papéis de gênero entre grupos de homens cisgênero, mesclando os debates de cada grupo a fim de encontrar o equilíbrio entre informação e posicionamento na sociedade.

OBJECTIVE: Identify the cisgender man's view before the new gender roles in contemporary Brazilian society and the construction of new masculinities. METHOD: This study is a descriptive, quantitative and cross-sectional analysis, composed of a sample of 38 male students aged 18 years or older from different courses at a public state university at Montes Claros, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The research was based on a semi-structured questionnaire containing twenty-three objective questions. RESULTS: It was possible identifying a greater return on the part of black individuals. Most of them (62.5%) affirm they usually don't talk about feelings. The biggest discrepancy was observed among students from different areas of study. Students from Social Sciences, Math and Technology and Health Sciences claim to have difficulties in being and doing what they want to because of people's reactions. On the other hand, students from Human Sciences said they have never had that difficulty, besides those students affirm they hardly ever seek information about the new social constructions of gender roles. CONCLUSION: Results obtained show area of study as more influential than race ­ not ignoring their influence - and may indicate an alternative to expand debates about gender roles among groups of cisgender men, mixing debates of each group in order to find a balance between information and its place in society.

[Adolescence and definition of family, the complexity of new family configurations]. / Adolescence et définition de la famille, la complexité des nouvelles configurations familiales.

When a family is recomposed or reconstituted, this brings new developmental tasks into play. The period of entry into puberty for adolescents is the beginning of a new family life cycle that challenges the tasks and roles of each individual. Family therapy can help to assemble individual fantasies into collective fantasies and allows for the rewriting of a family narrative that is meaningful to all members.

Eating disorders and representations of the role of women in China: A qualitative study.

OBJECTIVE: This qualitative study examines the representations of young Chinese girls and women with eating disorders (EDs) about the role of women in China, because conflicting societal values for women may foster the development of EDs there. METHOD: Semistructured interviews were conducted with 11 adolescent girls or young women hospitalized for an ED and with eight of their parents. Interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to explore the data. RESULT: Three superordinate themes emerged from the participants' narratives: the thin ideal in Chinese society; the experience of gender-related pressure; and independence and autonomization in a changing society. The ideal of thinness prevails, both in interpersonal relationships and in social roles. Highly codified representations persist, limiting women's opportunities. The participants and their parents show substantial ambivalence about independence; the young women have real difficulty in making decisions, thus failing to adopt roles that accord with their aspirations. DISCUSSION: Young girls' and women's representations of their gender could have implications in the development of EDs, mediated by their focus on thinness and their difficulties in constructing their identity, in developing autonomy and self-esteem, as well as family conflict. These findings indicate that construction of femininity in China is unsettled by rapid societal changes.

Identidade social de pessoas com condições raras e ausência de diagnóstico: contribuições a partir de Hall, Honneth e Jutel / Social identity of people with rare conditions and the lack of diagnosis: contributions based on Hall, Honneth and Jutel

Resumo Reconhecemos que pessoas com condições raras são um grupo com identidade social e buscamos compreender quais as implicações deste reconhecimento quanto à estigmatização ou à emancipação delas. Amparamo-nos na observação de que muitas das pessoas rotuladas com condições raras recebem a informação de que seus sintomas caracterizam uma "doença rara", mas não lhes é especificada qual seja. E, nesta medida, muitas pessoas com condições raras tornam-se também "deficientes", pessoas com "dificuldades de aprendizagem" ou tantos outros rótulos que nem sempre são bem vistos socialmente. Este artigo está organizado a partir de três eixos de análise, fundamentando-nos em Stuart Hall, Axel Honneth e Annemarie Jutel. Primeiramente, discutimos a construção da identidade social de pessoas com condições raras a partir de uma releitura sobre a "crise de identidade" nos termos de Hall. Em seguida, examinamos a identidade das pessoas com condições raras pela ótica da teoria de justiça como reconhecimento, especialmente em função do que Honneth apresenta como "reconhecimento recíproco". Por fim, pontuamos algumas das especificidades das demandas por reconhecimento de pessoas com condições raras, mas sem diagnóstico, fundamentando-nos na sociologia do diagnóstico, a partir de uma interlocução com Annemarie Jutel.

Abstract We acknowledge that people with rare conditions constitute a group with a specific social identity and seek to understand what the implications of this acknowledgement are either in the stigmatization or emancipation of these individuals. We base ourselves on the observation that many people who are said to have rare conditions are told that their symptoms constitute a "rare disease," without specifying which illness it might be. And, in this respect, many people with rare conditions are considered "handicapped," people with "learning difficulties," or are given many other labels that are not always socially well accepted. This article is structured around three analytical standpoints, basing ourselves on Stuart Hall, Axel Honneth and Annemarie Jutel. Initially, we discuss the construction of the social identity of people with rare conditions based on Hall's definition of the "identity crisis." We then examine the identity of people with rare conditions from the perspective of the theory of justice as recognition, especially in relation to what Honneth refers to as "reciprocal recognition." Lastly, we highlight some of the specificities of the demands for recognition of people with rare conditions - albeit without a diagnosis - basing our study on the sociology of diagnosis from the standpoint of Annemarie Jutel.

Assimilating South African medical students trained in Cuba into the South African medical education system: reflections from an identity perspective.

BACKGROUND: In terms of the Nelson Mandela Fidel Castro Medical Collaboration programme, an agreement between the governments of South Africa and Cuba, cohorts of South African students receive their initial five years medical training at a Cuban university before returning to South Africa for a six to twelve months orientation before integration into the local final year class. It is common for these students to experience academic difficulty on their return. Frequently this is viewed merely as a matter of a knowledge deficit. DISCUSSION: We argue that the problem arises from a fundamental divergence in the outcomes of the Cuban and South African medical curricula, each of which is designed with a particular healthcare system in mind. Using the discrepancy theory of identity proposed by Higgins in 1987, we discuss the challenges experienced by the returning Nelson Mandela Fidel Castro Medical Collaboration students in terms of a potential crisis of identity and suggest interventions which may prove valuable in promoting academic success and successful integration. CONCLUSIONS: Though providing additional training to address the gap in skills and knowledge in returning students is an important part of their successful reintegration, this could be insufficient on its own and must be complemented by a range of measures designed to ameliorate the discrepancies in identity which arise from the transition from one educational model to another.

O impacto do movimento renovador da educação física nas identidades docentes: uma leitura a partir da "Teoria do Reconhecimento" de Axel Honneth / The impact of the renewal movement of physical education on teachers' identity: a view based on Axel Honneth's Theory of Recognition" / El impacto del movimiento renovador de la educación física en las identidades docentes: una lectura a partir de la "Teoría del Reconocimiento" de Axel Honneth

Resumo: Estuda o impacto do Movimento Renovador da Educação Física nas identidades docentes dos professores da área que concluíram a formação inicial anteriormente à década de 1990, a partir do exame da hipótese de que a "desnaturalização da Educação Física" promovida por essa produção teria incidido fortemente na identidade dos professores. Realiza, para tanto, uma pesquisa empírica a partir de entrevistas semiestruturadas com 13 professores de EF de diferentes estados e regiões brasileiras. Elege a teoria do reconhecimento social de Honneth (2009) como perspectiva de análise, relacionando o "impacto" a um processo tangenciado por uma espécie de gramática moral, destacando as questões de cunho afetivo-moral. Nas considerações finais, destaca a produção do MREF como responsável por dissonâncias, desestabilizações e rupturas na área, mas, também, a potência desse movimento ao enfatizar a necessidade de se pensar a EF articulada com um projeto mais amplo de escolarização. (AU)

Abstract: This article looks into the impact of the Renewal Movement of Physical Education on the identities of PE teachers who completed their initial training before the 1990s. It examines the hypothesis that "PE denaturalization" caused by such production would have had a great impact on teachers' identity. It conducts empirical research based on semistructured interviews with 13 PE teachers from different Brazilian states and regions. It chooses Honneth's (2009) theory on social recognition as its perspective of analysis, underscoring affective-moral issues. It stresses the aforementioned movement as causing dissonance, destabilization, and rupture in the field, but it also underscores also its power by emphasizing the need to think PE in connection with a broader schooling process. (AU)

Resumen: Estudia el impacto del Movimiento Renovador de la Educación Física en las identidades docentes de los profesores del área que concluyeron su formación antes de la década de los 90 partiendo de la hipótesis de que la "desnaturalización de la Educación Física" promovida por esa producción habría incidido de manera poderosa en la identidad de los profesores. Para ello, realiza una investigación empírica a partir de entrevistas semiestructuradas a 13 profesores de EF de diferentes Estados y Regiones brasileñas. Escoge la teoría del reconocimiento social de Honneth (2009) como perspectiva de análisis, relacionando el "impacto" a un proceso tocado por una especie de gramática moral, destacando los asuntos de cuño afectivo-moral. En las consideraciones finales se destaca la producción del MREF como responsable por disonancias, inestabilidades y rupturas en el área, pero también la potencia de ese movimiento al enfatizar la necesidad de pensar la EF articulada a un proyecto más amplio de escolarización. de incongruencia entre finalidades y contenidos de los profesores y mayor relación entre contenidos aplicados y aprendizaje de los alumnos.

The sense of identity and symptoms of personality disorders - The results of a non-clinical population study.

OBJECTIVES: The aim of the presented studies was to empirically analyze the relation between the symptoms of personality disorders and the structure of identity-related senses. The analyses were conducted within two models - based on Millon's theory of personality and DSM-IV personality disorder classification system. METHODS: In the studies, a total of 197 university students of various majors were included. The authors used Polish version of the Millon Index of Personality Styles that assess personality styles and offers a Clinical Index to evaluate psychological adjustment, and Personality Disorder Types Questionnaire to obtain DSM-IV diagnoses. The intensity of the identity-related senses was measured using the Multidimensional Identity Inventory. Data were tested for normality, and then Student's t-tests and ANOVA tests were used to compare the structure of identity-related senses in individuals with a healthy personality and disordered personality. RESULTS: Within Millon's model, three different patterns of disordered personality were found, and they all manifested some identity deficits. Most of the personality disorders covered by DSM-IV also significantly differed on the identity dimensions from healthy personality. CONCLUSIONS: The results show that identity deficits should be considered as an important symptom of personality disorders, regardless of the adopted model of personality. The most disordered identity is observed in individuals falling into the group with odd or eccentric disorders and into the anxious or fearful cluster. The group with dramatic, emotional or erratic disorders is the most heterogeneous in terms of the level of identity disorganization.

Navigating the self in maternity care: how Chinese midwives work on their professional identity in hospital setting.

OBJECTIVE: to explore the strategies Chinese midwives employed to work on their professional identity in hospital setting and the consequence of such identity work. DESIGN AND METHODS: this paper draws upon findings from a Constructivist Grounded Theory study that explored the professional identity construction of 15 Chinese midwives with a mixture of midwifery experiences, practising in three different types of hospital settings in a capital city in Southeast China. The accounts from participants in the form of in-depth individual interviews were collected. Work journals voluntarily provided by three participants were also included. FINDINGS: in everyday practice, hospital midwives in China were working on their professional identity in relation to two definitions of the midwife: the external definition ('obstetric nurse'), bound up in the idea of risk management under the medical model of their work organisations; and the internal definition ('professional midwife'), associated with the philosophy of normal birth advocacy in the professional discourse. Six strategies for identity work were identified and grouped into two principle categories: 'compromise' and 'engagement'. The adoption of each strategy involved a constant negotiation between the external and internal definitions of the midwife, being influenced by midwifery experiences, relationships with women, opportunities for professional development and the definition of the situation. A 'hybrid identity', which demonstrated the dynamic nature of midwifery professional identity, was constructed as a result. KEY CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS: this paper explored the dynamic nature of midwifery professional identity. This exploration contributes to the body of knowledge regarding understanding the professional identity of hospital midwives in China, while also extending the current theoretical knowledge of identity work by elaborating on the various strategies individuals use to work on their professional identity in the workplace.

Configuração identitária do enfermeiro da estratégia de saúde da família em um município do interior do estado de Minas Gerais / Identity configuration of nurses of the family health strategy of a municipality in the state of Minas Gerais

Considerando os pressupostos acerca da construção da identidade social e os desafios organizacionais, estruturais, profissionais e ideológicos inscritos no atual cenário do modelo assistencial em saúde no Brasil emergiu este estudo, que teve como objetivo compreender a configuração identitária de enfermeiros da estratégia de saúde da família de um município do interior do estado de Minas Gerais. Para tanto, como percurso metodológico utilizou-se a abordagem qualitativa, elegendo como estratégia para coleta de dados a entrevista orientada por roteiro semi-estruturado. A análise dos dados seguiu os pressupostos da análise de conteúdo, organizada por eixos temáticos.

As identidades da atleta brasileira: os pontos de apego temporários da mulher na vida esportiva / The identities of the Brazilian female athlete: the points of temporary attachment of women in sports

O objetivo desse trabalho é analisar a formação das identidades de atletas olímpicas brasileiras e a construção desse papel social tanto no cenário olímpico como no contexto social brasileiro. Os resultados obtidos, quando confrontados com a literatura da área e o referencial teórico adotado, permitem inferir que, mesmo após a crescente inclusão de mulher brasileiras em diversas modalidades esportivas - ressaltando que essa inclusão não se deu sob a forma de enfrentamento, tal qual em outros países - isso não representou um repensar dos papeis sociais do feminino e do masculino, cabendo às atletas sustentar uma separação entre a vida de atleta e a vida enquanto mulher.
