An Innovative Concept of Simulation in the Art: Physiognomy of Places and Mimicry of the Structures
No full textThrough the statement "Architecture is frozen music" which reveals a universal theme of expression, the present study has shown the symbolic recognition of the music within the integrity of the neoclassical and romantic synthesis. In the first quarter of the 19th century, the Italian set designer Pietro di Gottardo Gonzaga (1751-1831) penned his method of working on fine arts and its influences in general to the famous art collector Nikolai B.Yusupov (1750-1831), who had invited the designer to Russia as chief designer of the Imperial theaters. The semantic analysis of the ‘Information a mon chef’ written in French and stamped in 1807 in St. Petersburg has shown that the Italian scenographer Pietro G.Gonzaga had a habit of relating musical theory synonyms with internal and external structures. Thereupon he had proposed the possibility that all forms could be associated with the music of the eyes. In this context, innovative expressions such as physiognomy and facial expressions have emerged. This study argues that this creative concept, which metaphorically approaches the architecture-music analogy is the scenic space designed by the author himself and represents the synthesis of neoclassic and romantic symbolism which constitutes the semantic and semiotic body of this study. As a consequence this study aimed at revealing our perspective toward this conceptual symbolism, which has been emerged in the age of scientific discovery and invention which forms the basis of the technological advances of the next centuries

Self-objectification in women predicts approval motivation in online self-presentation
No full textData availability statement:
The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author [SC] upon reasonable request.Researchers have examined self-objectification – viewing oneself as an object rather than a subject – in terms of its impact on intrapersonal factors, such as mental health and cognitive performance. However, few have examined how self-objectification relates to interpersonal factors. The present research addressed this gap by testing the impact of self-objectification on social approval motivation among women. Study 1 (n = 103) found that individual differences in self-objectification correlated positively with approval motivation. Study 2 (n = 94) replicated these results and found that women who reported higher self-objectification were more willing to modify their social media profile pictures unrealistically. In Study 3 (n = 100), higher self-objectifying women were more willing to unrealistically modify their profile pictures even if this exceeded normative levels, which was replicated in Study 4 (n = 199). These results suggest that women’s self-objectification is associated with a desire for approval from others and this desire manifests in a willingness to modify self-presentation.This research was supported in part by the Henry Lester Trust awarded to the first author

The Immigrant and the Citizen: Out-Group Evaluations and Well-Being of Turkish Immigrants From Bulgaria
No full textKorkmaz, Leman/0000-0003-2755-7290; Cingöz-Ulu, Banu/0000-0002-6501-3975;This study examines the postulates of the Rejection Identification Model (RIM) and Rejection Disidentification Model (RDIM) in a sample of 314 ethnic Turks from Bulgaria who migrated to Turkey. We investigate the intervening roles of immigrant and citizen identifications between perceived discrimination and the outcome variables (well-being and out-group evaluations). The results indicate that perceived discrimination predicts negative affect and out-group evaluations. Besides, Turkish citizen identification significantly and positively predicts life satisfaction and satisfaction from living in Turkey, whereas immigrant identification negatively predicts satisfaction in Turkey. Citizen identification predicts positive, and immigrant identification predicts negative out-group evaluations. Immigrant identification plays a mediating role in the link between perceived discrimination and satisfaction in Turkey as well as in that between perceived discrimination and out-group attitudes. The results imply the importance of consideration of contextual factors, including historical and cultural backgrounds, and the meaning of different identities for minority groups in predicting well-being.Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu [110K058]The author(s) disclosed receipt of the following financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article: This work was supported by Turkiye Bilimsel ve Teknolojik Arastirma Kurumu (110K058)

La perception du risque terroriste et de ses conséquences sur la gestion de la sécurité dans le système de transport en commun de Montréal
No full textDans cet ouvrage, nous cherchons à comprendre l‘impact des perceptions sur la production et la gestion de la sécurité dans le réseau du transport en commun de Montréal. Quinze entrevues de recherche ont été effectuées avec des policiers de l‘Unité-Métro pour dégager les principaux éléments qui entrent dans la conception du risque. Les policiers sont appelés à travailler dans un environnement où, d‘une part, il n‘y a jamais eu d‘attaques terroristes, mais d‘autre part qui demeure une cible potentielle à la fois pour les experts, les gouvernements et dans la culture populaire. Nos résultats montrent que les policiers se développent une perception du risque qui leur est propre. En général, ils ont une attitude pragmatique qui leur permet de relativiser les situations et de décider lesquelles nécessitent une intervention de leur part. De plus, les policiers adoptent des stratégies de justification et de protection qui minimisent la perception du risque. Nos participants soulignent que ces stratégies sont nécessaires pour leur permettre d‘effectuer leurs tâches quotidiennes. Ainsi, afin d‘échapper à la paranoïa, les policiers évitent de penser à la menace terroriste et focus plutôt leur attention sur la criminalité sur laquelle ils ont l‘impression d‘avoir un pouvoir réel. Toutefois, la vigilance reste de mise. Malgré que les policiers ne conçoivent pas le risque de la même manière que les gestionnaires, la présence de l‘Unité-Métro demeure un élément important de production de la sécurité sur le terrain.The research presented in this thesis aims to understand the impact of perceptions on the production and management of security in the Montreal transit system. Fifteen research interviews were conducted with police officers from the Metro Unit to identify the key elements involved in the perception of risk. The police officers are called to work in an environment where, on the one hand, there has never been any terrorist attacks, but on the other, remains a potential target according to experts, governments and popular culture. Our results show that the police officers develop a perception of risk specific to their tasks. In general, they have a pragmatic attitude which allows them to quickly sort situations and decide which ones need their attention. In addition, the police officers adopt justification and protection strategies that allow them to minimize their perception of risk. Participants insist that these strategies are necessary to enable them to perform their daily tasks. Thus, in order to escape falling into a paranoid state, the police officers avoid thinking about the terrorist threat, preferring to focus their attention on the crimes on which they believe to have an actual power. However, vigilance is still required. Although the police officers did not perceive the risk in the same way as administrators, the presence of the Metro Unit remains an important part of the production of security in the Montreal transit system
Study of the involvement of orexinergic system in the pathophysiological mechanisms of major depression
No full textCertains neuropeptides, comme les orexines, pourraient être impliqués dans les mécanismes neurobiologiques qui sous-tendent la dépression majeure. Nous avons utilisé un modèle murin de dépression, le stress chronique imprédictible modéré, pour étudier précisément le rôle du système orexinergique dans la dépression. Les souris stressées présentaient une augmentation de l’activation des neurones orexinergiques dans la partie dorsomédiale et périfornicale de l’hypothalamus, ainsi que des changements de l’expression des récepteurs orexine-2, contrecarrés par un traitement chronique avec un antidépresseur. De plus, le blocage pharmacologique du système orexinergique chez des souris stressées a engendré des effets antidépresseurs sous-tendus par le rétablissement du rétrocontrôle négatif de l’axe HPA indépendamment d’une augmentation de la neurogenèse hippocampique. Ces résultats montrent que le système orexinergique pourrait être impliqué dans la physiopathogenèse des troubles dépressifs.Neuropeptides, especially orexins, could be involved in the neurobiological mechanisms underlying maj or depression. We used a mouse mode! of depression, the unpredictable chronic mild stress, to specifically study the role ofthe orexinergic system in depression. Stressed mice showed an increase of orexinergic neuronal activation in the dorsomedial and perifornical hypothalamus, as well as change in orexin receptor-2 expression, reversed by chronic treatment with an antidepressant. In addition, pharmacological blockade ofthe orexinergic system in stressed mice induced antidepressant-like effects, underpinned by the restoration ofthe HPA axis negative feedback, independently of an increase of hippocampal neurogenesis. These results show that the orexinergic system could be involved in the pathophysiology of depressive disorders
