Répercussions autodéclarées sur la santé de la prestation de soins selon l’âge et le revenu chez les participants à l’Enquête sociale générale canadienne de 2012
Authors: Ysseldyk Renate , Kuran Natasha , Powell Simone , Villeneuve Paul J.
Published: May 2019

Introduction

L’augmentation de l’espérance de vie et la structure par âge sous-jacente de la population canadienne ont contribué à une augmentation spectaculaire du nombre d’aînés aidants naturels. Sachant que la prestation de soins est associée à divers effets néfastes sur la santé, il est nécessaire de mieux comprendre en quoi ces effets peuvent être différents chez les aidants plus âgés et si ces effets sont modifiés par le statut socioéconomique.

Méthodologie

Nous avons cherché à combler ces lacunes en matière de recherche en utilisant des données transversales fournies par les participants à l’Enquête sociale générale (ESG) canadienne de 2012. Des analyses descriptives ont été effectuées pour comparer les répercussions sur la santé que les participants ont attribuées à la prestation de soins et étudier la façon dont elles varient selon l’âge et le revenu. Des analyses de régression logistique ont été réalisées afin de déterminer les facteurs associés aux effets sur la santé globale déclarés par les aidants de 65 ans et plus.

Résultats

Les caractéristiques individuelles des fournisseurs de soins variaient consi¬dérablement en fonction de l’âge, les aidants plus âgés ayant des revenus plus faibles et consacrant plus de temps à la prestation de soins que les aidants plus jeunes. Les réper-cussions autodéclarées de la prestation de soins sur l’état de santé global étaient plus importantes chez les répondants de 35 à 64 ans, et ce, dans toutes les catégories de revenu. Les sentiments de solitude et d'isolement social découlant des responsabilités d'aidant semblaient être atténués dans les groupes d’âge et de revenu plus élevés. Dans tous les groupes d’âge, la prestation de soins était plus susceptible d'avoir des effets néfastes sur les habitudes en matière d’exercice, d’alimentation saine et de consommation d’alcool que de promouvoir des comportements plus positifs.

Conclusion

La prestation de soins a des répercussions sur les comportements liés à la santé et sur la santé mentale, quels que soient l’âge et le revenu. D’après nos résultats, les aidants plus âgés (le plus souvent des femmes), qui fournissent le plus grand nombre d’heures de soins et dont le revenu est inférieur à celui des aidants plus jeunes, semblent cependant moins touchés sur le plan des comportements liés à la santé. Cela s’explique peut-être par l’existence d’un moins grand nombre de besoins concomitants chez eux que chez les aidants plus jeunes. Ces résultats laissent entendre que les systèmes de soutien aux aidants doivent tenir compte de répercussions variables de façon complexe en fonc¬tion de l’âge, du sexe et du revenu.

L’Agence de la santé publique du Canada a modernisé son approche en matière de sur¬veillance de l’activité physique en élargissant la portée de cette dernière de façon à englober le comportement sédentaire et le sommeil. La première étape a consisté à éla¬borer un cadre conceptuel couvrant toute la gamme de l’activité : activité physique d’intensité modérée à élevée, activité physique de faible intensité, comportement séden¬taire et sommeil. Ce cadre tient compte de l’environnement dans lequel ces comporte¬ments surviennent (à la maison, au travail ou à l’école, durant le transport entre différents lieux, et dans la communauté) et adopte une approche socioécologique intégrant les facteurs individuels et les indicateurs portant, plus largement, sur les milieux bâti, social et sociétal. Nous avons également conçu un modèle visuel de ce cadre conceptuel pour en faciliter la diffusion.

Published: May 2019

Bu araştırmanın amacı,
farklı öğretim yolları kullanılarak zenginleştirilen bir öğrenme ortamının
matematiksel muhakemeye ve matematik tutumuna etkisini belirlemektir. Çalışma,
Türkiye’deki bir il merkezinden rastgele seçilen bir devlet ortaokulunda okuyan
27 yedinci sınıf öğrencisinin katılımıyla yürütülmüştür. Tasarlanan öğrenme
ortamında kesirler ve tamsayılar konularının öğretimi; eğitsel oyunlar, somut
materyaller, karikatürler ve bilgisayar destekli uygulamalar kullanılarak,
günlük yaşamla ilişkilendirilerek ve işbirlikli heterojen gruplarla
tartışılarak sekiz hafta boyunca (toplam 32 ders saati) gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Araştırmanın verileri, öğrencilerin Matematiksel Muhakeme Testi (MMT)’ne ve
Matematik Tutum Ölçeği (MTÖ)’ne öntest ve sontestte verdikleri cevaplardan elde
edilmiştir. MMT ve MTÖ’ye verilen cevaplar Wilcoxon İşaretli Sıralar Testi
kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan analizler; bu öğrenme ortamında yapılan
müdahalenin öğrencilerin matematiksel muhakemelerini anlamlı düzeyde
geliştirdiğini ve öğrencilerin matematiğe ilişkin tutumlarını anlamlı düzeyde
iyileştirdiğini göstermiştir. Öte yandan, işbirlikli gruplarda sunulan açık
uçlu problemler sayesinde öğrencilerin cevap seçeneklerine odaklanmak yerine
bir çözüm sunmaya çalıştığı, çözümünü açıkladığı, grup arkadaşlarıyla
tartışarak farklı stratejiler geliştirdikleri ve bu sayede daha fazla
matematiksel muhakemede bulundukları gözlenmiştir. Bu sonuç, matematiksel
muhakemeyi belirlemede, değerlendirmede ve geliştirmede açık uçlu problemlerin
kullanılması gerektiğinin altını çizmektedir.

AbstrakPelanggaran terhadap Hak Atas Kekayaan Intelektual (HAKI) semakin tinggi. Jadi diperlukan suatu cara untuk menunjukkan pesan rahasia sebagai label kepemilikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyisipkan pesan rahasia sebagai bukti otentik berupa logo atau teks ke dalam citra digital menggunakan Discrete Daubechies Wavelet Transform. Penyisipan dilakukan dengan menggunakan teknik watermarking dengan cara penyembunyian pesan rahasia (watermark) atau penyisipan informasi tertentu ke dalam suatu media, tetapi tidak diketahui kehadirannya oleh indra manusia dan mampu menghadapi proses pengolahan sinyal digital. Watermarking dilakukan dengan menyisipkan pesan rahasia (watermark) pada hasil dekomposisi DWT 3-level pada subband lowpass baris dan lowpass kolom (LL). Berdasarkan hasil pengujian, proses penyisipan dan ektraksi watermark dengan menggu-nakan variasi ukuran citra dan format citra, serta penggunaan watermark dan kunci dapat menghasilkan citra ber-watermark sebagai hasil proses penyisipan watermark yang tidak berbeda jauh dengan citra asalnya dengan nilai PSNR di atas 40 dB. Proses watermarking dengan menggunakan DWT mampu bertahan terhadap gangguan rotation dan penambahan brightness and contrast dengan rata-rata nilai PSNR di atas 30 dB. Keywords : Discrete Daubechies Wavelet Transform (DWT), Watermarking, Citra Digital, 3-level DWT, PSNR.
PENGARUH PERUBAHAN NILAI PARAMETER TERHADAP NILAI ERROR PADA METODE RUNGE-KUTTA ORDE 3

Published: May 2019

ABSTRACTRunge-Kutta method is a numerical method used to find the solution of an equation. This method seeks to obtain a higher degree of precision, and at the same time seeking to avoid the need of higher derivatives by evaluating the function f (x, y) at the selected point in each interval step. In this paper discussed the effect of changes in the value of the parameter (h) to the value of the error in the Runge-Kutta method Order-3. The equation to be discussed is a linear ordinary differential equation of the two levels that have been changed into a system of linear equations. In the research process was not found fixed parameter values to get the minimum error value, because each parameter has a value of error varied for each equation.Keywords: Runge-Kutta, parameters, error.
