Développement des collectifs de travail et développement de la sécurité : une étude sur les décisions à risque en anesthésie

This article highlights the collective dimensions of risk management for patients before an anesthesia. After a phase of observation of real activity, interviews were conducted with 20 anesthetists from two French hospitals. The analysis reveals interindividual diversity in practices. This diversity is explained by the inclusion, in decisions, of knowledge about “distributed” skills in the team and about local “shared practice”. The results establish a link between the site where the anesthetists are working and the choice of an anesthetic technique. They also show that the positioning of anesthetist vis-à-vis the “shared practice” is significantly related to their seniority in the profession. These results open perspectives for research and intervention for the joint development of collective work and safety.     

Sécurité des patients et développement des recherches : de la loi Bertrand à la loi Jardé

The legislator has successively adopted two laws amending deeply the legal framework of research. The first one is the law “Bertrand” no. 2011-2012 of 29 December 2011 on strengthening the safety of the drug and health products, which emphasizes the need for transparency of links of interest and opens wider opportunities for using post-marketing authorization trials. The second one is the law “Jardé” no. 2012-300 of March 5, 2012 on researches involving the human person, reforming all the rules governing researches and which establishes a national commission of researches involving the human person. If the first one is a clear move towards strengthening the protection of patients in research, it is possible to be more reserved about the effects of the latter, which seems more oriented towards an easing of constraints on researchers.     

« Porosité » entre travail et vie privée,conflits et aménagements : une étude comparative de deux populations de femmes

At present, little research has been done regarding the links between work and private life from the standpoint of subjective perceptions. The authors present a qualitative research focused on this issue involving women working in the fields of health and management. The content analysis revealed a double dynamic implying autonomy as well as “permeability” between the two worlds. Three subjective dimensions define this paradoxical movement: “dynamics in social relations”, the “subjective function of the body”, and the “perception of a certain mastery”. Outcomes show how psychological conflict can play an essential role in the personalization process. This was described by participants in terms of satisfaction, yet only under certain conditions.     

Développement conceptuel de la notion d’énergie relative à des objets inanimés et animés chez les élèves de dix à 17 ans

The objective of this work is to study the concept of energy in case where animates and inanimates objects interact. We questioned pupils between 10 and 17 years old with regard to the existence of energy in inanimates and energy consumption by animates. Our results show that pupils use a small number of coherent conceptions dependent on the context. These conceptions develop differently for inanimate and animate objects. In the case of inanimates, some evolution is observed, while for animates the concept evolves slowly. In general, the materialist character of energy, its confusion with force and its attribution, in preference, to animates are among the naive conceptions which constrain the scientific understanding of energy.     

La cross-évaluation : une approche d’évaluation et de développement des processus de travail inter-équipes

Organizational agility has become an increasing focus for companies and has led to the emergence of new developmental methods. This article presents the cross-evaluation as an approach to evaluating and developing inter-team interface efficacity. Though 360 degrees feedback collective processes are being evaluated, and during reflexive workshops they decide what improvements to make in their team functioning. Based on a literature review and more specifically on the theories of social identity and groupthink this article describes the scientific bases of the cross-evaluation method and the biases that can be involved and how to reduce them. It suggests new avenues of research and practical suggestions for practitioners about an inter-team development method.     

La valorisation professionnelle des caractéristiques de personnalité masculines,féminines et androgynes

This article examines the professional valorisation of gender-typed traits. In the study, participants should assess masculine, feminine and androgynous profiles in a set of professional contexts obtained by the crossing of social status (high versus low), gender (masculine versus feminine) and sector (production versus maintenance) of occupations. Consistent with a gender- typed trait matching model, the results showed that masculine profiles were the most valued ones in the most masculine occupations, feminine profiles were mostly valued in the most feminine occupations while androgynous profiles were the most valued in gender ambiguous occupations. Of particular interest was the fact that the perception of occupations’ gender was a function of the interaction between the gender and the sector of occupations (i.e.: the most masculine occupations were those that were stereotypically masculine and belonging to the production sector; the most feminine were those that were stereotypically feminine and belonging to the maintenance sector; the stereotypically masculine and maintenance occupations as the stereotypically feminine and production occupations were perceived as less gender typed).     

Usage des technologies numériques et modèles de la perméabilité des frontières entre la vie personnelle et la vie professionnelle

This study examines the determinants of porous borders personal and professional borders related to the use of information and communication technology (ICT). A mixed methodology that combines both a qualitative approach based on an exploratory interviews and a quantitative phase based on an online survey was followed to collect the data. The main findings of this study are: first, the permeability of personal (average score: 3.56) and professional (average score: 3.67) boundaries is experienced by most individuals. Second, the permeability is accelerated by the ICT use (70.9 % of respondents use the Internet at home for business purposes, 63.5 % use it at work for personal needs). Third, individuals manage differently this permeability by developing strategies based on their ICT use. These strategies go beyond the continuum “segmentation-integration”. There are four models: segmentation, spillover, integration and hybridization.     

La faute médicale caractérisée en droit pénal français est-elle liée à des qualifications d’intensité et de gravité ?

Medical misconduct in criminal law could be qualified as characterized by judge. It would be determined by the fact that the medical practitioner exposes a patient to health danger with full consciousness. This medical misconduct could be done during positive act or guilty abstention. But the legislator didn’t clarify the term “characterized” of fault in the bill. Precise definitions were established by dispute at law. In the medical field, an analysis was performed when indirect causality was involved by supreme judge. The majority of court rulings were based on criminal negligence which couldn’t be ignored by the medical doctor that endangers health patient. Intensity and gravity in criminal negligence were systematically demonstrated. That could be considered as the term “characterized” in the medical fault.     

Le modèle d’acceptation des technologies depuis 1986 : 30 ans de développement

This article is a theoretical analysis of the use of the technology acceptance model (TAM) and synthesizes the results of twelve literature reviews and meta-analyses. We analyzed their content according to four thematic axes: the validity of the TAM, the evaluation of the role of each of its variables, the influence of external variables and moderators and the intellectual development of the TAM. The literature globally confirms the reliability of each of the variables in the TAM and the relevance of the relationships between these variables. However, weaknesses are noted and recommendations made for future research, such as the inclusion of more contextual information on the use of technologies and on participant characteristics, as well as additional various measurement methods of use and their benefits. A notable difference has been identified in the relationship between TAM's variables and the objective and subjective measures of the actual use of technologies. In addition, objective measures have been included in few practical studies, but have generally included small samples. Another weakness of the TAM is its significantly lower capacity to predict the volume (time spent on use over a given period), as well as the frequency of use (number of uses over a given period) of a technology, compared to the simple prediction of use.     

Comment aider les résidents d’une maison de retraite à librement décider de participer à une activité sociale ? Toucher, « vous êtes libre de… » et pied-dans-la-porte

Confronted with the social exclusion of the elderly [cf. Pellissier, J., 2003. La nuit, tous les vieux sont gris. La société contre la vieillesse. Bibliophane-Daniel Radford, Paris], some old peoples homes propose to their residents to participate in social activities, but about 56% of the residents never participate [Paillat, P., 1982. Vieillissement et vieillesse. Presses Universitaires de France, Paris]. In an initial study [Pratiques Psychol 13 (2) (2007), 213–225], two free compliance procedures were used, jointly, to help the residents of an old peoples home overcome their isolation [Joule, R.-V., Beauvois, J.-L., 1998. La soumission librement consentie. Presses Universitaires de France, Paris, Joule, R.-V., Beauvois, J.-L., 2002. Petit traité de manipulation à l’usage des honnêtes gens. Presses Universitaires de Grenoble, Grenoble]: the “but you are free to..” procedure [Curr Res Soc Psychol 5 (18) (2000), 264–270]; and the “touch” procedure [J Exp Soc Psychol 13 (1977), 218–223]. The present research analysed the split effects of both procedures used. Results showed the effectiveness of a touch procedure on intention to participate and the actual participation in social activities by the residents (as proposed by the homes). Besides, the use of a new procedure of free compliance (foot-in-the-door [J Pers Soc Psychol (4) (1966), 195–202]) allowed to revive the observed effects.     

Revue de littérature sur les techniques d’influence et de communication appliquées à la gestion des déchets

For more than thirty years, researchers conduct studies to define the forms of intervention to improve the practices of waste management. This study is a review of literature interesting communication and influence on sorting and waste prevention. Building on the classification by Geller (1990) of types of intervention on the management of waste, we distinguished four different types of interventions: we present successively the work based on incentives, rhetorical and behavioral strategies. Finally, we present researchs which studied the feedback. We propose for each of these forms of influence techniques, prospects of research and application that seem most relevant.     

Relations entre le vécu émotionnel et les stratégies d’ajustement en situation de compétition

The purpose of this exploratory study was to deal with the questions of stress and emotions in the sports fields based on transactional theory and reversal theory. Competitive marathon runners (n = 36) completed self-report questionnaires a few hours before and after a marathon. Results highlighted the importance to precompetitive phase in terms of the subjective states of tension–stress, effort–stress, anxiety and excitation. Interesting links were observed between some of these expressions of emotional experience and the performance. It was also demonstrated that the same coping strategy could be associated with pleasant and unpleasant emotions. The limits of this study and the practice perspectives for marathon running will be reviewed in this study.     

Prolongement du dispositif d’accompagnement sens de la vie et sens du travail : « Développer le sens de sa vie en cultivant ses liens aux autres et aux communautés sociales »

IntroductionAs an extension of the counseling program for adults, dedicated to meaning of life and meaning of work, a complementary session called “Developing the meaning of one's life by cultivating one's links with others and social communities” has been created. It is developed under the impetus in particular of formulated research perspectives in which broadening the focus is encouraged, by no longer focusing solely on individuals but also on social groups, collectives and communities.ObjectiveThe intention is to understand the way through which meaning is developed by way of contact with social interactions and how the development of reflection on social communities makes it possible to enrich the individual in the construction of his identity, his references and of his social integration. This session strives not to reinforce, with the accompaniment to meaning, individualism, excessive self-centeredness, withdrawal into oneself within what is known of the intimate sphere. On the contrary, it strives to promote an awareness of the importance of the link to others, of an openness to otherness which is fundamental in the construction of meaning.ProcedureThe objective of this study is to present the session by considering its processes and its effects in order to provide practicing psychologists and counselors in the field of orientation with an intervention device and operational tools.Concluding discussionThe scientific and practical implications are discussed in the light of the main results collected during the 2019 experimentation of this session with four communities and its application within five counseling programs validating its contributions for the beneficiaries and for the overall device.
