L’usure des travailleurs vieillissants à l’épreuve de la nationalité. Le cas des migrants de Tunisie en région parisienne dans la seconde moitié du XXe siècle

If foreign workers are exposed to degraded working and working conditions, they are not necessarily affected by a particularly increased mortality. By analyzing social protection schemes and biographical data, the article shows that this paradoxical situation results from the combination of several factors that contribute to the relative invisibility of the health problems faced by foreign workers. Indeed, if foreign workers constitute an over-selected workforce, the long-term effects of their working conditions remain unknown, because of the particular representations they receive, but also because of the segmentation of the labor market, which induces differentiated trajectories from the point of view of health and its management.     

Validité de construit d’une épreuve de jeu de rôle dans le cadre d’un centre d’évaluation chez des officiers de marine.

The present study was designed to obtain validity estimates for a role-play test. Participants were 125 french Navy officers who were rated by a pool of professional assessors and psychologists. All the assessors received reccurring training sessions, focusing on the behavioral checklist, on rating errors, and on share frame of reference. The assessment procedure included role play exercise, cognitive ability scale (g factor) and personality scale (big five factors). First, exploratory factor analyses were conducted on the data gathered, and four factors were identified (authoritarianism, oral communication, consideration with others and frankness). In a nomological perspective, we also analysed the links between the exercises dimensions, personality inventorie and intelligence scale. The findings suggest that role play dimension, personality and intelligence seem to measure different thinks.     

Le droit à la protection de la santé dans la jurisprudence du Conseil constitutionnel

The establishment of constitutional review a posteriori did not fundamentally inflected jurisprudence of the Constitutional Council in the field of health protection.

Comment dépasser le constat d’un niveau de performance à un test de raisonnement ? Exemple d’une épreuve

To answer one of the criticisms most often formulated about the logical reasoning tests, i.e. characterizing the persons only on their global score, we have created a test aiming to take into account two other types of individual differences: the success profile and the errors. From the use of such a test on 562 persons, the results analysis confirm that our test allows both to collect information and to calculate specific indicators on these two aspects of the performance. The discussion topic turns on the advantage of such approaches.     

La responsabilité médicale des accidents de la circoncision en Tunisie : à propos de trois affaires judiciaires

Circumcision is the most frequently performed surgical procedure worldwide, mainly as part of religious rituals. It may lead to serious complications. Although there is no specific law relative to circumcision accidents in Tunisia, the occurrence of complications of this act is likely to engage the penal, civil and disciplinary liability of the doctor. Prevention involves respecting the principles of the Medical Deontology Code, raising awareness about the need to practice circumcision in a medical environment and the promulgation of specific legislation regulating this act. The new Tunisian law on medical liability seems to offer a solution to solve the legal complaints concerning circumcision accidents by providing more opportunities for amicable settlement and at the same time guaranteeing adequate and rapid compensation of the prejudice. In this article, we discuss the medical liability of circumcision accidents through three medicolegal cases carried out at the Department of Legal Medicine of Ibn El Jazzar University Hospital, Kairouan, Tunisia.     

Le rôle du contexte d’expression et du statut social des intervenants de santé dans la production d’un discours normatif : le cas de la relation des jeunes à l’alcool

The objective of this research is to show that, under usual conditions of interaction between an agent of health and of its public intervention, the individuals produce a “pro-health” speech which can lead astray this agent, concerning the representation which they have of alcohol. Students, producing verbal associations about this object, were confronted either with an agent of health or with a student, and were speaking either for themselves or as the students would do in general. The results show that the individuals, placed in front of an agent of health and directly implied in the beliefs that they express, tend to adopt the speech wished by this agent. However, this manifest adhesion only appears to be circumstantial, insofar as the speech of the individuals is different when they are expressed vis-a-vis a member of its group and in the name of this one. The implications of these results with regard to the interventions of prevention are discussed.
