Les préaux ::des espaces publics à réinvestir
Comment allier qualité de vie urbaine et forte densité? Face à la rareté des terrains publics, certaines villes prennent les devants en ouvrant les préaux scolaires à un plus large public que celui des élèves, valorisant un réseau existant d’espaces extérieurs hautement qualitatifs, souvent sous-exploités par les habitant·es. Le projet de recherche PublicSchoolyards établit un focus sur la situation lausannoise
Affective biases in attention, cognitive control, and awareness ::chapter 19
Emotionally or motivationally significant stimuli tend to attract, divert, or hold attention more readily than neutral stimuli. These effects arise during numerous tasks, varying as a function of stimulus type or emotional cue. Their neural substrates involve enhanced activity of sensory cortices under direct influence of emotional or reward processing systems, including the amygdala, in combination with other top-down or bottom-up biases that together serve to prioritize behaviorally relevant information for access to conscious awareness. Other indirect influences act through interactions of emotional and motivational systems, with cortical or subcortical networks controlling attention, including executive functions and neuromodulatory pathways. These data reveal that attentional processes encompass multiple biasing signals that can modulate stimulus processing, based not only on space or object representations, as traditionally considered, but also value-based representations. Such mechanisms of emotional attention or affect-driven biases may operate preattentively, involuntarily, or non-consciously, yet nonetheless be regulated by current goals or context
Childhood trauma and relationship with the parents ::associations with lipids, glucose, and prolactin levels during antipsychotic treatment in patients with first-episode psychosis
Is deceleration the key element in vertical jump performance to return to sport after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring graft? A preliminary study
Background/Purpose: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) often leads to persistent neuromuscular deficits, complicating return-to-sport decisions. Reliable functional assessments are needed to guide RTS after ACLR. The main objective was to examine countermovement jump (CMJ) measures to identify which parameters can best distinguish between ACLR and control participants. The secondary objective was to determine whether performance alterations between operated and non-operated limb exist during CMJ after ACLR.
Design: Non-randomized, single blinded, cross-sectional study
Methods: Limb symmetry index (LSI) was calculated for vertical ground reaction force (vGRF), maximal power (MP), and eccentric rate of force development (RFDe) during countermovement jumps (CMJ) performed on force plates by an ACLR group (n=64) and a control group (n=47). First analysis compared LSI vGRF, LSI MP and LSI RFDe between groups. Secondary analysis compared vGRF, MP and RFDe between the operated/non-operated limb in the ACLR group and dominant/non-dominant limb in the control group. Between-group comparisons were made using Mann-Whitney tests due to non-normal data distribution. Effect sizes were calculated to assess the magnitude of differences.
Results: Participants included 64 ACLR patients (mean age 26.5 ± 5.0 years; 33 females) and 47 controls (mean age 23.6 ± 2.1 years; 24 females). CMJ measures in the ACLR group were significantly reduced for LSI vGRF (p < 0.001), LSI MP (p < 0.001) and LSI RFDe (p < 0.001). The ACLR group exhibited significant differences between both limbs in terms of vGRF (p < 0.001), MP ( p < 0.001), and RFDe (p < 0.01). No significant limb differences were found in the control group.
Conclusion: Measures of deceleration from the CMJ are altered after ACLR and should be considered throughout rehabilitation
"Doing more with less" ::understanding work (over)load and its effects on psychological health : methodological challenges and oportunities
Autonomy and care work in swiss social policy ::the case of the personal assistance allowance of the invalidity insurance
The Swiss personal assistance allowance, introduced in 2012 under the Federal Law on Invalidity Insurance (LAI), aids disabled individuals requiring assistance with daily tasks. Despite its significance, it remains relatively unknown, prompting an analysis of its features and implementation challenges. This article adopts a socio-legal approach to explore this social service’s political motives, unique characteristics, and implementation issues. Drawing from interdisciplinary research conducted be-tween 2022 and 2024, including legal analysis and ethnographic study in the Canton of Vaud, the article examines the personal assistance allowance’s role in promoting autonomy and empowerment for disabled individuals. It also delves into the implica-tions of establishing beneficiaries as employers. While the Swiss personal assistance allowance reflects a broader shift towards recognizing and supporting the autonomy of disabled individuals, its implementation reveals complexities and tensions inherent in navigating legal obligations and ensuring effective support. In this context, the issue of informal caregivers presents a tension between the recognition of autonomy through contractualization and the practical burdens imposed on caregivers, leading to a shift of responsibilities from care tasks to administrative duties
Expansion and refocusing ::two alternative trajectories for service marketing research
In this concluding chapter, we take a longer-term perspective and discuss two different trajectories for the evolution of the service research domain. As illustrated in the previous chapters, service research is a dynamic and prolific discipline that has undergone substantial transformations over the past 30 years. However, discerning the future evolution in this research domain might be a challenge, given the different trajectories such an evolution could take. First, we present the methodology developed by Furrer and others (2020) to identify the two trends of service research, and the recent update by Furrer and others (2023). Second, we briefly summarize Furrer and others’ (2020) findings on the evolution of service literature between 1993 and 2019. Third, we detail the two future evolution trajectories of service research and illustrate them with research published between 2019 and 2023. Finally, we conclude with a discussion of how key research themes could be studied in ways that are consistent with the two possible trajectories for service research
Périodisation de l’entrainement des athlètes féminines euménorrhéiques en fonction du cycle menstruel ::une synthèse narrative
Contexte : Les recherches en sciences du sport ont historiquement été concentrées sur des études provenant de populations masculines, laissant des lacunes dans la compréhension des spécificités féminines. Avec une participation croissante des femmes dans le sport amateur et professionnel, il est important d’explorer comment des facteurs, tels que le cycle menstruel, peuvent influencer la performance et la pratique sportive des athlètes féminines. Objectif : Cette synthèse des preuves scientifiques vise à évaluer la pertinence de la périodisation de l’entrainement en fonction des phases du cycle menstruel. Tout en mettant en avant l’importance de suivre précisément les phases du cycle menstruel, elle analyse ses effets potentiels sur des marqueurs subjectifs (perception de l’effort) et objectifs de la performance (force et fatigabilité neuromusculaire). Elle examine également le rôle de la périodisation du renforcement musculaire, ainsi que le risque de blessure. Développement et discussion : Les données scientifiques actuelles ne montrent pas d’influence significative du cycle menstruel sur divers déterminants de la performance, telles que la force ou la fatigabilité neuromusculaire, ni sur le risque de blessures. En revanche, les symptômes et troubles du cycle menstruel (syndrome prémenstruel, dysménorrhées, ménorragies) doivent être pris en considération pour optimiser la performance. Le monitoring du cycle menstruel est donc recommandé pour détecter ces symptômes afin d’améliorer la santé et la performance des sportives. Conclusion : Bien que les preuves actuelles portant sur l’influence du cycle menstruel sur la performance et le risque de blessures ne justifient pas une périodisation de l’entrainement, le suivi personnalisé du cycle menstruel reste pertinent pour optimiser la santé et le bien-être des athlètes féminines. Une approche individualisée, basée sur les symptômes perçus par les athlètes, est encouragée
