Ad-hoc-Studien im Robert Koch-Institut
Full text linkDas Robert Koch-Institut (RKI) führt in regelmäßigen Abständen bevölkerungsrepräsentative Gesundheitsstudien
(KiGGS, DEGS, GEDA) im Rahmen des bundesweiten Gesundheitsmonitorings durch. Zusätzlich zu diesen
Gesundheitsstudien werden telefonisch Daten zu speziellen Themen (z. B. Diabetes) oder mit bestimmten
Befragungsgruppen (z. B. medizinisches Fachpersonal) erhoben, welche in den großen Gesundheitsstudien nicht oder
nur unzureichend abgebildet werden konnten. Die telefonischen Ad-hoc-Studien bieten die Möglichkeit, flexibel und
kurzfristig Aussagen zu speziellen epidemiologischen und gesundheitspolitischen Themen zu treffen. Der vorliegende
Beitrag beschreibt das seit 2017 neu eingeführte und standardisierte Verfahren der telefonischen Ad-hoc-Studien, welches
im RKI durch das Labor für Gesundheitsbefragungen betreut wird. Es werden die unterschiedlichen Schritte des
Projektmanagements wie Konzeptentwicklung, Erstellung eines Datenschutzkonzepts, Fragebogenerstellung, Pretest,
Feldphase, Erstellung von Gewichtungsvariablen und die Bereitstellung des finalen Datensatzes beschrieben. Die Ziele
dieses Beitrags sind, eine Prozessbeschreibung und einen Einblick in die standardisierten Abläufe, in die berichteten
Qualitätsindikatoren und in die möglichen Anwendungsszenarien zu geben.Peer Reviewe
Art, Biography, Sexuality: Patrick Procktor and Keith Vaughan
No full textThis critical review forms a reflection on the research published within the following publications:
Patrick Procktor: Art and Life (Unicorn Press, 2010)
Keith Vaughan: The Mature Oils 1946-1977, (Sansom & Co., 2012)
The research is on two artists, Patrick Procktor (1936-2003), and Keith Vaughan (1912-1977). The monograph on Procktor – previously one of the least documented of the generation of artists who came to prominence in London in the Sixties – positions him in a history of art from which he had been notably absent. The research on Vaughan asserts a new reading of his work, one that is both deeper and more nuanced in its analysis of the ways in which personal experience and sexuality are encoded autobiographically within his work. Crucially, in both artists biography and work are symbiotically linked; the research therefore examines the links between life and art.
Revisionary in intent, the work examines trajectories of experience of gay British (or rather, English) artists in the twentieth century, artists who sought to express themselves and forge careers within the constraints of a heteronormative society, albeit one in which attitudes to sexuality were undergoing change. As gay men, both were constrained by the social mores of their times, and each used painting as a means to affirm personal and sexual identities. A key research interest is in the ways in which sexuality and persona are reflected in critical responses to the artist’s work: in Vaughan, Procktor and other gay male artists of the period. The writing on both Procktor and Vaughan examines the relationship between their personal and professional/artistic lives, framed within a broader socio-political and art historical context. It asserts the place of biography as a means to understand and form new readings of the work. The work adds substantially to the literature and wider discourse on post-war British painting and social history
Patrick Chamoiseau Recovering Memory
No full textThis timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau. Considered by many as one of the most innovative writers to hit the French literary scene in over 40 years, Chamoiseau made his name with his book Texaco (published in 1992 and winner of the highest literary prize in France, the Prix Goncourt). His books have gone on to sell millions and his work has been translated by a number of academic presses. McCusker sets the author in context, providing a valuable contribution to 'memory studies' by looking at literary representation of memory in Martinique, a society founded on slavery but now politically assimilated to the metropolitan centre, France.Title Page -- Contents -- Introduction -- 1: Beginnings: The Enigma of Origin -- 2: 'Une tracée de survie': Autobiographical Memory -- 3: Memory Re-collected: Witnesses and Words -- 4: Memory Materialized: Traces of the Past -- 5: Flesh Made Word: Traumatic Memory in Biblique des derniers gestes -- Afterword -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexThis timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau.

Ad hoc surveys at the Robert Koch Institute
Full text linkThe Robert Koch Institute (RKI) regularly conducts nationally representative cross-sectional studies (KiGGS, DEGS and
GEDA) as part of the nationwide health monitoring system. In addition to these health surveys, data is collected in
telephone interviews either on specific thematic fields (such as diabetes) or specific groups (such as medical staff) that
were not or only insufficiently covered by the larger health surveys. As they are flexible and fast, ad hoc surveys conducted
via telephone interviews can respond to specific epidemiological and health political questions. This article describes
the procedures applied in ad hoc telephone interview surveys, which were newly introduced as a standardised method
in 2017 and are applied by the Laboratory for Health Surveys at the RKI. The article presents the stages of project
management such as concept development, establishment of a concept for data protection, questionnaire development,
pre-test and field phase, calculation of weighting factors and provision of the final data set. The aim is to describe the
process and shed light on the standardised procedures, the reported quality indicators and the breadth of possible
scenarios of application.Peer Reviewe

The investigation in "Dora Bruder" of Patrick Modiano
No full textreservedIl presente lavoro si propone di affrontare il tema dell’indagine, dell’inchiesta investigativa nel romanzo “Dora Bruder” dello scrittore francese Patrick Modiano, pubblicato nel 1997. Si tratta del più noto successo editoriale dell’autore, il quale, in una narrazione al contempo biografica ed autobiografica, si mette sulle tracce di Dora Bruder, una giovane ragazza ebrea scomparsa nel 1941, di cui si sono perse definitivamente le tracce. La presente tesi si compone di tre capitoli. Nel primo, si analizzeranno i motivi che spingono l’autore ad occuparsi della vicenda della giovane ragazza scomparsa proprio durante la seconda guerra mondiale. Successivamente, nel secondo capitolo, si passerà ad affrontare come l’autore compie la propria indagine per comprendere che cosa le sia accaduto, diventando una sorta di investigatore su un vecchio caso di scomparsa. Ed infine, nell’ultimo capitolo, si analizzerà quale sarà l’esito della sua indagine.This work proposes to deal with the subject of investigation in the novel "Dora Bruder" by French writer Patrick Modiano, published in 1997.
