Los extranjeros autorizados en 2006-2009 a residir en España por motivos de reagrupación familiar, muestran la importancia que ha alcanzado esta forma de inmigración en el total de nuevos extranjeros empadronados. La investigación se basa en una encuesta específica a reagrupantes africanos y latinoamericanos, que también informan sobre sus familiares reagrupados, hayan utilizado, o no, las leyes de reagrupación. Africanos y latinoamericanos ofrecen dinámicas y estructuras sociodemográficas muy diferentes, a resultas, entre otras causas, de la antigüedad de sus flujos, su fecundidad, su dominio del idioma español, su nivel de instrucción, sus posibilidades de ingresos, su estructura por sexo y edad, tamaño de las familias reagrupadas, etc. Se ofrece información para los dos colectivos continentales y para los subgrupos familiares —reagrupantes, cónyuges, hijos, progenitores y otros familiares—, y se utilizan escalas del conjunto estudiado y de ámbitos territoriales —Cataluña litoral, Comunidad Valenciana, Murcia-Almería—. Los africanos concentran los aspectos estructurales más negativos —idioma español, instrucción, ingresos,…—, pero también son los que declaran intenciones más firmes y generalizadas de permanencia en España. Las conclusiones orientan sobre el futuro de estos flujos.

La investigación se basa en una encuesta específica realizada en 2009-2010 a 348 reagrupantes africanos y a 457 latinoamericanos, que residen con sus familias en las provincias litorales entre Girona y Almería. Los reagrupantes también informan sobre sus cónyuges y sus hijos. La información ahora utilizada se centra en factores de integración social relevantes para los grupos familiares; se utiliza la escala del conjunto territorial estudiado, y también de las tres subáreas: Cataluña litoral, Comunidad Valenciana y Murcia-Almería. Los factores de integración estudiados son el conocimiento del idioma español (para los africanos); las relaciones de convivencia; las parejas matrimoniales deseadas para los hijos/as; los deseos de permanencia en España; ingresos económicos y bienestar percibido; las relaciones de la familia con el país de origen, y la vivienda familiar en España. Africanos y latinoamericanos ofrecen respuestas diferentes a los factores de integración, más positivas entre los segundos, y dentro de los colectivos familiares, los hijos muestran actitudes más favorables para su integración.

Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of anxiety and depression scores of couples who underwent Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) on pregnancy outcomes. Method: This study was conducted as a prospective and comparative study with 217 couples. The study data was collected by using a semi-structured questionnaire and the Turkish version of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). The questionnaire, STAI and BDI were applied to couples who initiated ART treatment. Couples’ state anxiety scores were re-evaluated after embryo transfer (ET). Results: A significant relationship was found between the depression score of women and pregnancy outcome (p < 0.05). It was determined that anxiety scores for both men and women were higher before the ART procedure, but their anxiety scores decreased after ET (p < 0.05). Spouses of women with a negative pregnancy outcome had higher trait and state anxiety mean scores (p > 0.05) and lower depression scores (p <0.05) than spouses of women with a positive pregnancy outcome. Conclusion: Study results indicated that the anxiety and depression scores of couples who had achieved a positive pregnancy result were lower than for couples with a negative result. The results of this study will contribute to the health professionals especially to the nurses who spend the most time with couples in providing consulting services and supporting psychological status of couples during ART process in Turkey.

The aim of this thesis was to describe and explore how the partner relationship of patient–partner dyads isaffected following cardiac disease and, in particular, atrial fibrillation (AF) in one of the spouses. The thesis is based on four individual studies with different designs: descriptive (I), explorative (II, IV), and cross-sectional (III). Applied methods comprised a systematic review (I) and qualitative (II, IV) and quantitative methods (III). Participants in the studies were couples in which one of the spouses was afflicted with AF. Coherent with a systemic perspective, the research focused on the dyad as the unit of analysis. To identify and describe the current research position and knowledge base, the data for the systematic review were analyzed using an integrative approach. To explore couples’ main concern, interview data (n=12 couples) in study II were analyzed using classical grounded theory. Associations between patients and partners (n=91 couples) where analyzed through the Actor–Partner Interdependence Model using structural equation modelling (III). To explore couples’ illness beliefs, interview data (n=9 couples) in study IV were analyzed using Gadamerian hermeneutics. Study I revealed five themes of how the partner relationship is affected following cardiac disease: overprotection, communication deficiency, sexual concerns, changes in domestic roles, and adjustment to illness. Study II showed that couples living with AF experienced uncertainty as the common main concern, rooted in causation of AF and apprehension about AF episodes. The theory of Managing Uncertainty revealed the strategies of explicit sharing (mutual collaboration and finding resemblance) and implicit sharing (keeping distance and tacit understanding). Patients and spouses showed significant differences in terms of self-reported physical and mental health where patients rated themselves lower than spouses did (III). Several actor effects were identified, suggesting that emotional distress affects and is associated with perceived health. Patient partner effects and spouse partner effects were observed for vitality, indicating that higher levels of symptoms of depression in patients and spouses were associated with lower vitality in their partners. In study IV, couples’ core and secondary illness beliefs were revealed. From the core illness belief that “the heart is a representation of life,” two secondary illness beliefs were derived: AF is a threat to life, and AF can and must be explained. From the core illness belief that “change is an integral part of life,” two secondary illness beliefs were derived: AF is a disruption in our lives, and AF will not interfere with our lives. Finally, from the core illness belief that “adaptation is fundamental in life,” two secondary illness beliefs were derived: AF entails adjustment in daily life, and AF entails confidence in and adherence to professional care. In conclusion, the thesis result suggests that illness, in terms of cardiac disease and AF, affected and influenced the couple on aspects such as making sense of AF, responding to AF, and mutually incorporating and dealing with AF in their daily lives. In the light of this, the thesis results suggest that clinicians working with persons with AF and their partners should employ a systemic view with consideration of couple’s reciprocity and interdependence, but also have knowledge regarding AF, in terms of pathophysiology, the nature of AF (i.e., cause, consequences, and trajectory), and treatments. A possible approach to achieve this is a clinical utilization of an FSN based framework, such as the FamHC. Even if a formalized FSN framework is not utilized, partners should not be neglected but, rather, be considered a resource and be a part of clinical caring activities. This could be met by inviting partners to take part in rounds, treatment decisions, discharge calls or follow-up visits or other clinical caring activities. Likewise, interventional studies should include the couple as a unit of analysis as well as the target of interventions.

L’estimation de la douleur chez autrui peut être influencée par différents facteurs liés à la personne en douleur, à l’observateur ou bien à l’interaction entre ces derniers. Parmi ces facteurs, l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui, dans les milieux de soins ou dans une relation dans laquelle un des deux conjoints souffre de douleur chronique, a souvent été liée à une sous-estimation de la douleur d’autrui. L’objectif de cette thèse visait à mesurer les impacts de l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui sur l’estimation subséquente de la douleur des autres, mais aussi sur l’activité cérébrale lors de l’observation de la douleur d’autrui et finalement, sur l’estimation de la douleur chez les conjoints de patients atteints de douleur chronique. La première étude expérimentale a permis d’isoler le facteur d’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui des autres facteurs confondants pouvant moduler l’estimation de la douleur d’autrui. Ainsi, il a été démontré que l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui diminuait l’évaluation subséquente de la douleur des autres. Dans la seconde étude, il a été démontré en imagerie par résonance magnétique fonctionnelle que l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui entrainait des changements dans l’activité cérébrale de certaines régions associées au traitement affectif (l’insula bilatérale), mais aussi cognitif de la douleur (sulcus temporal supérieur ; précunéus), lors de l’observation de la douleur d’autrui. Finalement, la troisième étude expérimentale, celle-ci proposant une visée plus clinique, a permis de démontrer que les conjoints de patients atteints de douleur chronique ne surestiment pas la douleur de leur conjoint, mais qu’ils perçoivent de la douleur même dans des expressions faciales neutres. L’ensemble de ces résultats suggère que chez les sujets sains, l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui entraine une sous-estimation de la douleur chez l’autre et des changements dans le réseau de la matrice de la douleur lors de l’observation de la douleur des autres. En définitive, ces résultats démontrent que l’exposition répétée à la douleur d’autrui, dans un contexte expérimental, a des impacts majeurs sur l’observateur et son jugement de l’intensité de la douleur.

Notre étude a comme objectif de mieux comprendre comment la socialisation des hommes se manifeste dans le rôle de conjoints proches aidants à domicile, pour une conjointe atteinte d’un cancer à l’étape pré-terminale et terminale. Elle s’inscrit en tant que recherche exploratoire et compréhensive, d’orientation constructiviste. Le modèle de Schulz et de Cantor ont inspiré l’analyse des résultats. Douze hommes ont été rencontrés lors d’entrevues semi-dirigées. L’âge des répondants a permis d’avoir un échantillon d’hommes représentatif de deux générations différentes, soit celle des vétérans (1922-1945) et celle des baby-boomers (1946-1964). Selon leur génération, ils ont été exposés de façon plus ou moins importante aux valeurs et aux prescriptions sociales en ce qui concerne les genres. Il semble que ce soit le fait d’être informé, plutôt que le niveau d’éducation, qui a une influence sur le contexte de soins en procurant aux conjoints soignants les outils nécessaires pour mieux répondre aux demandes des soins. Il apparaît que les hommes qui ont conservé le modèle traditionnel du partage des tâches ont eu plus de difficultés à assurer le vie domestique de la maison. Les réseaux formels ont suppléé au manque de ressources familiales et au manque de connaissances des répondants. L’amour, le désir d’offrir les meilleurs soins et la fidélité à leur engagement sont des motifs à la base de la prise en charge. Les hommes plus jeunes n’ont pas hésité à quitter leur travail pour prendre soin. Ils n’ont pas exprimé de craintes quant à leur masculinité. Quant aux plus âgés à la retraite, ils auraient été hésitants à quitter leur travail pour soigner si la situation s’était présentée. Retenons que les hommes sont en mesure d’assumer ce qui doit être fait, mais à leur manière, c’est-à-dire en y apportant ce qu’ils ont à offrir en tant qu’homme.

Baseada na literatura sobre a interferência trabalho-família e o engagement, esta investigação estudou diferenças nestas variáveis em indivíduos com cônjuge trabalhador na mesma organização vs. cônjuge não trabalhador na mesma organização. Foram aplicados dois questionários a uma amostra de 91 participantes, que permitiram concluir que o primeiro grupo apresenta níveis superiores em todas as dimensões de ambas as variáveis, sobretudo na dedicação. Foram ainda estudadas diferenças em variáveis sócio-demográficas, assim como foi demonstrado a correlação significativa entre as dimensões do engagement, e entre o vigor e a interferência trabalho­família negativa. São discutidas implicações teóricas e práticas, assim como limitações do estudo e direcções futuras. /ABSTRACT: Based on the literature about work-home interference and engagement, this investigation studied differences on those variables in individuals with their spouses working on the same organization vs. spouses don't working on the same organization. Two questionnaires were applied to a 91 sample, that allowed us to conclude that the first group presents higher levels in every dimension of both variables, especially on dedication. Differences in socio-demographics variables were also studied, and it was demonstrated significant correlation between engagement dimensions, and between vigour and negative work-home interference. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed, as well study limitations and future directions.
