Becoming parents. Family education and birth preparation paths
Creators: name: Catarsi, Enzo

description: The birth of a child is a crucial event in men’s and women’s life, since it implies establishing new parental identities, besides changing the way roles and relationships within the family household are planned and defined. In this view, birth, especially in the case of the first-born, results to be “destructuring”, as setting new roles both in the couple and in the whole relatives’ family. It is also for this reason that the article argues that research on the topic of birth cannot be delegated just to medical science, but must also be acquired by family education. One of the research perspectives that we can follow is the one that uses parental writings and autobiographical narratives. The article stresses then the new parents’ need of support, and in this regard it proposes “birth preparation paths” as an experience of family education. On these occasions useful information could be provided on suckling, first bath and other technical aspects, or on customized educational instructions. Among the goals, helping future parents start identifying in the role their parts by training them to sympathy and affection is a major one.

description: The special Buchdahl-inspired metric obtained in a recent paper [Phys. Rev. D 107, 104008 (2023)] describes asymptotically flat spacetimes in pure $\mathcal{R}^{2}$ gravity. The metric depends on a new (Buchdahl) parameter $\tilde{k}$ of higher-derivative characteristic, and recovers the Schwarzschild metric when $\tilde{k}=0$. It is shown that the special Buchdahl-inspired metric supports a two-way traversable Morris-Thorne wormhole for $\tilde{k}\in(-1,0)$ in which case the Weak Energy Condition is formally violated, a naked singularity for $\tilde{k}\in(-\infty,-1)\cup(0,+\infty)$, and a non-Schwarzschild structure for $\tilde{k}=-1$.

description: Malware code often resorts to various self-protection techniques to complicate analysis. One such technique is applying Mixed-Boolean Arithmetic (MBA) expressions as a way to create opaque predicates and diversify and obfuscate the data flow. In this work we aim to provide tools for the simplification of nonlinear MBA expressions in a very practical context to compete in the arms race between the generation of hard, diverse MBAs and their analysis. The proposed algorithm GAMBA employs algebraic rewriting at its core and extends SiMBA. It achieves efficient deobfuscation of MBA expressions from the most widely tested public datasets and simplifies expressions to their ground truths in most cases, surpassing peer tools.

description: It is known that participation in occupations, or valued everyday activities, is associated with better health and wellness outcomes, as well as greater life satisfaction. However, young adults with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) participate in daily occupations at a lower rate than their typically-developing peers. Despite these challenges, research shows self-determination skills are a protective factor in improving occupational participation and the overall post-secondary transition process for young adults with IDD.

description: The birth of a child is not only a biological event, but also a social one. From childbirth, parents welcome the baby and include him/her in the nuclear and extended family by choosing name(s) and surname. These names but also food and mothering care will be marked by two joint but opposed movements: accentuate the uniqueness of the newborn or emphasize its resemblance to his/her siblings. This article examines the signs of this double movement through the results of an ethnographic study conducted in a district of the city of Lille where the population generally has fewer economic resources than the average population in France.

description: Purpose: Developmental language disorder (DLD) is an underidentified neurodevelopmental disorder that affects, on average, one out of 11 kindergarten-age children (ages 4–6 years). Children with DLD can face academic, behavioral, psychiatric, emotional, and social challenges. Universal screening is seen as an effective way for public school districts to increase DLD identification rates. However, little is known about factors impacting implementation of school-based universal screenings for DLD. We partnered with a large suburban school district in the Intermountain West region of the United States to gather detailed perspectives from school personnel regarding the barriers and facilitators to the implementation of universal screening in their district.Method: Using a two-phase mixed-methods design, we first conducted focus groups to identify potential barriers and facilitators to universal screening. We then used the qualitative data from the first phase to develop a 20-item survey to assess agreement with the focus group results among a wider group of district speech-language pathologists and kindergarten teachers from the school district.Results: Our survey showed moderate levels of agreement with our focus group results. In particular, school personnel showed high levels of support for universal screening for DLD, with interesting interplay across various factors: (a) the negative impact of unmanageable workload on personnel under both referral- and universal-based identification formats, (b) the preference for paraprofessionals to administer screenings, (c) the role that Response to Intervention programs may play in offsetting workloads associated with universal screenings, and (d) the need for increased awareness and education about child language development and impairment among general education teachers and the public.Conclusion: Recommendations for incorporating these factors into more useful and applicable collaborative research-based efforts are presented.Supplemental Material S1.

The insulin-like growth factors
Creators: name: Clemmons, David
name: Cohick, W.S.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1993

description: "The insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) are single-chain polypeptides with structural homology to proinsulin. They regulate proliferation and differentiation of a multitude of cell types and are capable of exerting insulin-like metabolic effects. Unlike insulin, they are produced by most tissues of the body and are abundant in the circulation. Thus the IGFs have the potential to act via endocrine as well as autocrine andlor paracrine mechanisms. The IGFs exert their effects at the cellular level by interacting with the Type-I IGF receptor (IGF-I receptor). They also bind to the Type II1mannose- 6-phosphate receptor (IGF-II receptor) and insulin receptors, as well as high affinity binding proteins (IGFBPs). Like the IGFs, the IGFBPs are produced by multiple cell types and have been shown to modulate IGF bioactivity. The recent availability of cDNA probes and antibodies for the IGFs, IGF receptors, and IGFBPs has led to a substantial increase in published studies of IGF physiology. This review attempts to integrate recent information regarding coordinate regulation and function of the IGFs, their receptors, and IGFBPs."

description: Quantum systems often exhibit fundamental incapability to entertain vortex. The Meissner effect, a complete expulsion of the magnetic field (the electromagnetic vorticity), for instance, is taken to be the defining attribute of the superconducting state. Superfluidity is another, close-parallel example; fluid vorticity can reside only on topological defects with a limited (quantized) amount. Recent developments in the Bose-Einstein condensates produced by particle traps further emphasize this characteristic. We show that the challenge of imparting vorticity to a quantum fluid can be met through a nonlinear mechanism operating in a hot fluid corresponding to a thermally modified Pauli-Schroedinger spinor field. In a simple field-free model, we show that the thermal effect, represented by a nonlinear, non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, in conjunction with spin vorticity, leads to new interesting quantum states; a spiral solution is explicitly worked out.

Adolescenze nostalgiche. L’omosessualità adolescenziale maschile nel segno della madre
Creators: name: Stramaglia, Massimiliano
Publisher: name: Rivista Italiana di Educazione Familiare
Year: 2017

description: Lo scopo di questo studio è quello di fornire informazioni educative e linee guida utili ad accompagnare la crescita degli adolescenti maschi omosessuali. La linea di interpretazione che caratterizza l’intero contributo ha l’obiettivo di formulare alcune ipotesi supportate da riferimenti teorici che portino dalla psicoanalisi classica alla pedagogia contemporanea. L’idea principale suggerisce una correlazione tra l’omosessualità adolescenziale e una serie di attitudini che vedono l’omosessualità come scelta, come reazione verso una deprivazione affettiva, o una drammatica rinuncia all’eterosessualità. La fase di crescita è considerata in senso ecologico come un processo vissuto dagli adolescenti anche sulla base di fattori ambientali che possono portare verso un loro (materno o nostalgico) rifugio nei miti della musica pop, celebrità il cui corpo e le cui canzoni parlano di una “diversità esagerata”. Come, per esempio, Madonna e Lady Gaga.

description: Il tema dell’accoglienza dei bambini e delle famiglie nei servizi per la prima infanzia è parte della cultura pedagogica italiana e rappresenta ancora oggi uno degli assi portanti del dibattito sulla qualità e la partecipazione. Sono tuttavia rare le occasioni di riflessione sulle pratiche di inserimento/ambientamento a partire dall’osservazione delle culture relazionali ed educative introdotte nei servizi dalle famiglie immigrate e attraverso il dialogo tra genitori ed educatori. A partire dalle indicazioni emergenti da recenti contributi di ricerca, l’articolo sollecita una rilettura critica delle pratiche di inserimento in una prospettiva di pedagogia interculturale.

description: We show in detail how three one-body fluctuation profiles, namely the local compressibility, the local thermal susceptibility, and the reduced density, can be obtained from a statistical mechanical many-body description of classical particle-based systems. We present several different and equivalent routes to the definition of each fluctuation profile, facilitating their explicit numerical calculation in inhomogeneous equilibrium systems. This underlying framework is used for the derivation of further properties such as hard wall contact theorems and novel types of inhomogeneous one-body Ornstein-Zernike equations. The practical accessibility of all three fluctuation profiles is exemplified by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations that we present for hard sphere, Gaussian core and Lennard-Jones fluids in confinement.

description: Civilian Review Boards (CRBs) remain an infrequently used tool of external, democratic oversight of policing in the US. What explains the lack of diffusion in this area? One possible locus of resistance is within police executives -- the police chiefs and sheriffs of the country's approximately 18,000 policing agencies. We administer an information-provision survey experiment with a multi-arm design to US police chiefs and sheriffs to assess executive attitudes towards CRBs along a range of outcomes. First, we consider whether support varies when police executives are provided with recent public opinion information, distinguishing between public support for CRBs with or without independent disciplinary powers. Next, given that policing policy often diffuses from the largest agencies to smaller agencies, we evaluate whether information about CRB prevalence in major city police agencies influences leadership support for CRBs. Finally, in supplemental analyses, we assess heterogeneity in support for CRBs amongst law enforcement elites along a variety of characteristics. Our results provide insight regarding key dimensions relevant to law enforcement agencies and their communities, how police executives balance the demands of institutional sovereigns, and help to inform associated emerging scholarship at the intersection of criminal justice and democratic governance.
Observational constraints on neutron star crust-core coupling during glitches

description: We demonstrate that observations of glitches in the Vela pulsar can be used to investigate the strength of the crust-core coupling in a neutron star, and suggest that recovery from the glitch is dominated by torque exerted by the re-coupling of superfluid components of the core that were decoupled from the crust during the glitch. Assuming that the recoupling is mediated by mutual friction between the superfluid neutrons and the charged components of the core, we use the observed magnitudes and timescales of the shortest timescale components of the recoveries from two recent glitches in the Vela pulsar to infer the fraction of the core that is coupled to the crust during the glitch, and hence spun up by the glitch event. Within the framework of a two-fluid hydrodynamic model of glitches, we analyze whether crustal neutrons alone are sufficient to drive the glitch activity observed in the Vela pulsar. We use two sets of neutron star equations of state (EOSs), both of which span crust and core consistently and cover a range of the slope of the symmetry energy at saturation density $30 < L <120$ MeV. One set produces maximum masses $\approx$2.0$M_{\odot}$, the second $\approx$2.6$M_{\odot}$. We also include the effects of entrainment of crustal neutrons by the superfluid lattice. We find that for medium to stiff EOSs, observations imply $>70\%$ of the moment of inertia of the core is coupled to the crust during the glitch, though for softer EOSs $L\approx 30$MeV as little as $5\%$ could be coupled. No EOS is able to reproduce the observed glitch activity with crust neutrons alone, but extending the region where superfluid vortices are strongly pinned into the core by densities as little as 0.016fm$^{-3}$ above the crust-core transition density restores agreement with the observed glitch activity.

description: In light of the ongoing effort on reducing the theoretical uncertainties and an upcoming experiment concerning muon magnetic moment, we perform a detailed study of an 3-4-1 electroweak gauge extension of the standard model that contains exotic charged leptons in its spectrum. We discuss flavor changing neutral current, collider and electroweak bounds on the model and derive $1σ$ limits using current and projected limits on the muon magnetic moment. In summary, we exclude the masses of new gauge bosons that couple to muons and heavy charged leptons up to $700$~GeV. Moreover, we find a projected lower bound on the scale of symmetry breaking to be $2$~TeV.

description: We discuss the long-time relaxation of a qubit linearly coupled to a finite bath of $N$ spins (two-level systems, TLSs), with the interaction Hamiltonian in rotating wave approximation. We focus on the regime $N\gg 1$, assuming that the qubit-bath coupling is weak, that the range of spin frequencies is sufficiently broad, and that all the spins are initialized in the ground state. Despite the model being perfectly integrable, we make two interesting observations about the effective system relaxation. First, as one would expect, the qubit relaxes exponentially towards its zero-temperature state at a well characterized rate. Second, the bath spins, even when mutually coupled, do not relax towards a thermal distribution, but rather form a Lorentzian distribution peaked at the frequency of the initially excited qubit. This behavior is captured by an analytical approximation that makes use of the property $N\gg 1$ to treat the TLS frequencies as a continuum and is confirmed by our numerical simulations.

description: Dieses Arbeitspapier beschäftigt sich mit politischen Steuerungsmöglichkeiten zur Begünstigung eines nachhaltigeren Personenverkehrs. Hierfür wird zunächst theoretisch die Entwicklung und der aktuelle soziotechnische Stand des Personenverkehrs anhand der Multi-Level Perspective nach Geels veranschaulicht und gezeigt, dass eine Elektrifizierung und Digitalisierung des Verkehrs in der Zukunft durchaus plausibel ist, aber nicht zwangsläufig mit Nachhaltigkeitsgewinnen einhergeht. Daher ist, um einen nachhaltigen Personenverkehr zu schaffen, vielmehr eine weitergehende politische Steuerung von Nöten, um den dominierenden motorisierten Individualverkehr einzuschränken. Aus diesem Grund wird die politische Dimension des Personenverkehrs mittels eines Konzepts von Hillmann beschrieben und fünf Eingriffsmöglichkeiten identifiziert, welche von unterschiedlichen deutschen Akteuren gefordert werden um einen nachhaltigen Entwicklung des Personenverkehrs zu unterstützen. Diese Hypothesen werden im zweiten Teil des Arbeitspapieres in die in NetLogo programmierte agentenbasierte Simulation SimCo überführt und empirisch auf ihre Wirksamkeit im Hinblick auf gesellschaftlichen Nutzen, Emissionen und Straßenauslastung überprüft. Es stellt sich heraus, dass sowohl eine Komforterhöhung des Fahrrads, als auch eine Kostenerhöhung des Autos oder die Einführung einer Tempo-30-Zone valide Eingriffe sind um einen nachhaltigen Straßenverkehr zu begünstigen, wobei sie sich in ihrer Wirkungseffizienz durchaus unterscheiden. Eine Kostenreduzierung des ÖPNV oder der Ausbau des Fahrradstraßennetzes haben hingegen keine Auswirkungen. Weitergehende Ergebnisse zeigen unter anderem, dass für Parameter wie den wahrgenommenen Komfort Grenzwerte bestehen, bei deren Erreichen ganze Bevölkerungsgruppen ihr Verhalten ändern. Schließlich kann aus den Simulationsergebnissen gefolgert werden, dass eine moderate Erhöhung der Kosten des Autos einen Nutzenanstieg für die Gesamtbevölkerung bedeutet.

description: We examine the interplay between spectral bandwidth and illumination curvature in ptychography. By tailoring the divergence of the illumination, broader spectral bandwidths can be tolerated without requiring algorithmic modifications to the forward model. In particular, a strong wavefront curvature transitions a far-field diffreaction geometry to an effectively near-field one, which is lees affected by temporal coherence effects. The relaxed temporal coherence requirements allow for leveraging wider spectral bandwidths and larger illumination spots. Our findings open up new avenues towards utilizing pink and broadband beams for increased flux and throughput at both synchrotron facilities and lab-scale beamlines.

description: We define a family of binary outcome $n$-party $m\leq n$ settings per party Bell inequalities whose members require the least detection efficiency for their violation among all known inequalities of the same type. This gives upper bounds for the minimum value of the critical efficiency --- below which no violation is possible --- achievable for such inequalities. For $m=2$, our family reduces to the one given by Larsson and Semitecolos in 2001. For $m>2$, a gap remains between these bounds and the best lower bounds. The violating state near the threshold efficiency always approaches a product state of $n$ qubits.

description: Abstract

This research investigates the significant phenomenon of shopping cart abandonment within the realm of e-commerce, which impacts an estimated 68-70% of online transactions. The objective of the study is to elucidate the principal factors that contribute to cart abandonment, employ predictive analytics to forecast abandonment probabilities, and propose efficacious strategies aimed at diminishing these rates. Utilizing a quantitative research methodology, the investigation scrutinizes a dataset comprising 100 users, assessing variables such as duration of site engagement, items viewed, and shipping expenses through the application of logistic regression modeling. The results indicate that an increase in engagement time is associated with a notable reduction in the likelihood of abandonment, whereas elevated shipping costs, absence of discounts, and the prevalence of mobile device usage are linked to heightened abandonment rates. Specifically, the implementation of discounts is shown to decrease abandonment by 40%, and mobile users exhibit a 50% higher propensity to abandon their carts in comparison to desktop users. The findings emphasize the critical need for optimizing the checkout processes, enhancing website usability, and executing targeted marketing strategies to bolster customer retention and conversion rates within the e-commerce sector.

description: Social informatics research offers insights into the relationship between information technologies and social contexts. However, the material roles of information technologies, and their interplay with the agentic work of social actors, have not been addressed. Drawing on a field study of 37 mobile knowledge workers, we examine the dual material roles (enabling and constraining) played by information technologies in their work practices. We also investigate how these workers exert agency by fashioning multiple information technologies into a functioning digital assemblage. Although information technologies provide consequential affordances that enable mobilization of work across spaces and times, they simultaneously present design-driven, local, organizational, and temporal technological constraints that require mobile knowledge workers to engage in “configuration work” to make information technologies function effectively. Building on a sociomaterial perspective, we further discuss the interplay of information technologies and work practices enacted by mobile knowledge workers, in which both human and technological agency are materialized.

description: The ding-a-ling model is a kind of half lattice and half hard-point-gas (HPG) model. The original ding-a-ling model proposed by Casati {\it et.al} does not conserve total momentum and has been found to exhibit normal heat conduction behavior. Recently, a modified ding-a-ling model which conserves total momentum has been studied and normal heat conduction has also been claimed. In this work, we propose a full lattice ding-a-ling model without hard point collisions where total momentum is also conserved. We investigate the heat conduction and energy diffusion of this full lattice ding-a-ling model with three different nonlinear inter-particle potential forms. For symmetrical potential lattices, the thermal conductivities diverges with lattice length and their energy diffusions are superdiffusive signaturing anomalous heat conduction. For asymmetrical potential lattices, although the thermal conductivity seems to converge as the length increases, the energy diffusion is definitely deviating from normal diffusion behavior indicating anomalous heat conduction as well. No normal heat conduction behavior can be found for the full lattice ding-a-ling model.

description: Masses of positive-parity and negative-parity diquarks are investigated at finite temperature with a quark chemical potential. We employ the three-flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, in order to delineate chiral properties of the diquarks, in particular, the mass degeneracy of chiral partners under extreme conditions. We focus on the effects of $U(1)_A$ axial anomaly on manifestation of the chiral-partner structures. We find that, in the absence of anomaly effects to the diquarks, the mass degeneracies in all $[ud]$, $[su]$ and $[sd]$ diquark sectors take place prominently above the pseudocritical temperature of the chiral restoration. On the other hand, the anomaly effects are found to hinder the $[ud]$ diquark from exhibiting the mass degeneracy, accompanied by a slow reduction of the $\bar{s}s$ condensate, while the $[su]$ and $[sd]$ diquarks are not much affected. Our present investigation will provide useful information on the chiral-partner structure with the anomaly effects of diquarks for heavy-ion collision experiments of singly heavy baryons and doubly heavy tetraquarks, and for future lattice simulations of the diquarks.

description: Il saggio si focalizza sull’importanza dei compiti a casa e sulla cooperazione tra insegnanti, genitori e allievi nei primi cinque anni della scuola primaria nella Repubblica Ceca. Nel lavoro sono monitorati il modo con cui è gestito il tempo libero dei bambini, i vari generi di compiti a casa e l’impatto che queste attività hanno sulle realzioni familiari. La ricerca analizza i modi concreti con cui le famiglie preparano i figli alla scuola, così come il differente grado di coinvolgimento degli stessi genitori o tutori. Ai dati quantitativi si associano dati qualitativi, ottenuti grazie a focus group con bambini, genitori e insegnanti. Nel lavoro ci si sofferma sulla capacità di autoregolazione degli allievi, sulle differenze tra maschi e femmine, sulla percezione del successo scolastico in correlazione con l’esecuzione dei compiti a casa.

description: Die Gerichtliche Kriminalstatistik basiert auf dem Strafregisterfile, das vom Bundesministerium für Inneres geführt wird. Die Verurteilungsstatistik gliedert die von österreichischen Gerichten ausgesprochenen rechtskräftigen Verurteilungen nach dem Strafgesetzbuch bzw. den Nebenstrafgesetzen. Bis zum Berichtsjahr 2011 wurde bei einem Verfahren wegen mehreren strafbaren Handlungen die Verurteilung dem Delikt zugeordnet, das für den Strafsatz maßgebend war („Führendes Delikt“). Ab dem Berichtsjahr 2012 wird die Angabe zur Strafsatzbestimmung vom Gericht übermittelt. Seither wird auf die algorithmische Ermittlung des „führenden Delikts“ verzichtet und die Strafsatzbestimmung ausgewiesen. Zudem besteht ab 2012 die Möglichkeit, alle Delikte, die einer Verurteilung zugrunde liegen, in der Statistik auszuweisen. Die Wiederverurteilungsstatistik umfasst alle Personen, die in einem Ausgangsjahr rechtskräftig verurteilt worden sind (mit Ausnahme zu einer unbedingten Haftstrafe oder Anstaltsunterbringung) bzw. in diesem Jahr aus einer unbedingten Haftstrafe oder einem Maßnahmenvollzug entlassen worden sind. Diese Personen werden über einen festgelegten Zeitraum hinsichtlich neuerlicher Verurteilungen beobachtet. Bis zum Berichtsjahr 2013 (Ausgangsjahr 2009) lag dieser bei fünf Kalenderjahren. Abhängig vom Zeitpunkt der Verurteilung bzw. Entlassung im Ausgangsjahr erstreckte sich der Analysezeitraum somit über mindestens vier bis maximal fünf Jahre. Erstmals mit dem Berichtsjahr 2014 (Kohorte 2010) wird jede Person individuell über vier Jahre hinsichtlich einer Wiederverurteilung beobachtet.

description: For a unital completely positive map $Φ$ ("quantum channel") governing the time propagation of a quantum system, the Stinespring representation gives an enlarged system evolving unitarily. We argue that the Stinespring representations of each power $Φ^m$ of the single map together encode the structure of the original quantum channel and provides an interaction-dependent model for the bath. The same bath model gives a "classical limit" at infinite time $m\to\infty$ in the form of a noncommutative "manifold" determined by the channel. In this way a simplified analysis of the system can be performed by making the large-$m$ approximation. These constructions are based on a noncommutative generalization of Berezin quantization. The latter is shown to involve very fundamental aspects of quantum-information theory, which are thereby put in a completely new light.

description: Decidere di avere più di un figlio, a differenza del primo, è una decisione che non riguarda solo i genitori ma coinvolge anche il primogenito, il quale, soprattutto se è ancora piccolo, deve adattarsi al loro desiderio. La nascita di un fratellino o di una sorellina si caratterizza come un’esperienza che pone dubbi e interrogativi all’interno del nucleo familiare, in quanto determina vari cambiamenti (fisici, psicologici, emotivi, relazionali ecc). Alcuni albi illustrati che si rivolgono ai bambini da zero a sei anni descrivono con immagini e parole questo particolare momento, ponendo una specifica attenzione ai sentimenti e agli stati d’animo del primo figlio: sono libri che, attraverso storie divertenti, cercano di aiutarlo a superare questo periodo, una tappa significativa del suo percorso di crescita.

description: The present report has two main sections, each containing two chapters. The purpose of the first section is to better define the composition and contours of “radicalization leading to violence”. Its first chapter (3.1) clarifies the concepts and definitional issues around such radicalization. Its second chapter (3.2) demonstrates the value of approaching the topic from the angle of gender and gender-differentiated analysis. After a historical review of feminine involvement in violent radicalism, it outlines how the phenomenon is generally treated in the media and scholarly research, and shows the nuances to be gained from a postcolonial perspective on gender. The second section, containing the third and fourth chapters, deals more precisely with women’s involvement today in radical Islamism and certain jihadist groups. Based on a comprehensive review of the literature on radicalization leading to violence from a gender perspective, the third chapter (4.1) offers a status report on what is known internationally about women’s involvement in radicalization leading to violence. Pointing out the strengths and limitations of existing knowledge, the literature review suggests the theoretical and empirical contributions that feminist research can make to this subject. The fourth and last chapter (4.2) presents a description and analysis of the radical involvement of Québec women in Islamism. Based on unpublished empirical data from a field study conducted in Québec, this chapter draws connections between the empirical reality in Québec and the theoretical elements discussed earlier, for a better understanding of why some Québec women have wanted to join jihadist groups in Syria.
