International audience ; The Great Housing Mission Venezuela (Gran Mision Vivienda Venezuela or GMVV) was created in 2011 in a country that has been in constant change since 1999 after the arrival of President Hugo Chavez to the power and which is still experiencing a situation of generalized crisis 21 years later. This program proposes the massive and fast construction of houses mainly destined for families affected by a succession of climatic events. The article studies the transformation of the territory produced by the GMVV which goes beyond the traditional framework of city policies. I will analyze the purpose assigned to architecture and urban planning, the role of the image produced in this context, and the stance of the inhabitants in front of their new living environment. The GMVV, strongly supported by the government's official visual communication, combined with other, will be analyzed as a resilience factor for its beneficiaries facing a trauma that reveals the vulnerability of the territory and its inhabitants. One of the conclusions of this study is that the inhabitants express a paradoxical feeling of abandonment by the authorities concurrently with recognition for being sheltered and pride in overcoming the country's sustained crisis situation. ; La « Grande Mission Logement Venezuela » (Gran Misión Vivienda Venezuela ou GMVV) a été créée en 2011 dans un pays en mutation depuis 1999 avec l'arrivée d'Hugo Chavez au pouvoir, et qui connaît, 21 ans après, une situation de crise généralisée. Ce programme propose la construction massive et rapide de logements destinés prioritairement aux familles touchées par une succession d'événements climatiques. L'article étudie la transformation du territoire et des villes engendrée par la GMVV, qui dépasse le cadre traditionnel d'une politique de la ville. Sont analysés le statut de la propriété, le rôle imputé à l'architecture et à l'urbanisme, le rôle de l'image produite dans ce contexte, le positionnement des habitants face à leur nouveau cadre de vie.

The present study offers an empirical analysis of motivations for social reporting in voluntary organizations (VOs). Our concurrent mixed methods research design is supported by a questionnaire administered to all of the organizations listed in the regional registry of VOs in Tuscany. Analysis of the scores associated with each set of motivations suggests that VOs issue social reports to offer a truthful representation of the organization's activities, provide relevant information to stakeholders, and conduct an effective form of internal control. Our findings suggest that many of these motivations connect with each other and produce less conflict among VOs than they do among for-profit organizations, thereby highlighting some peculiar characteristics of these types of organizations. By studying the theoretical perspectives that better correspond to the motivations of Italian VOs, our study contributes to the literature by providing a more complete understanding of why these organizations decide to issue a social report.

Income support policy towards unemployed families is based on certain assumptions about financial incentives and how these affect behaviour. 55 unemployed families were interviewed in depth about their perceptions, beliefs and attitudes. (Abstract amended)

How do you trap someone in a lie? For centuries, all manner of truth-seekers have used the lie detector. In this eye-opening book, Geoffrey C. Bunn unpacks the history of this device and explores the interesting and often surprising connection between technology and popular culture. The lie detector figures prominently in many headline-producing criminal cases, including one of the most infamous in modern memory: the O.J. Simpson murder trial. The use of the lie detector in this and other cases brings up many intriguing questions that Bunn addresses in this work: How did the lie detector become so important? Who uses it? How reliable are its results? Bunn reveals just how difficult it is to answer this last question. A lie detector expert concluded that O.J. Simpson was "one hundred percent lying" in a video recording in which he proclaimed his innocence; a tabloid newspaper subjected the same recording to a second round of evaluation, which determined Simpson to be "absolutely truthful." Lie detectors and other truth-telling machines became deeply embedded in American popular culture after the Charles Lindbergh "crime of the century" in 1935. Since then, they have factored into the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas sexual harrassment controversy and such high-profile criminal cases as the Oklahoma City and Atlanta Olympics bombings. Well-known brands Isuzu, Pepsi Cola, and Snapple have advertised their products with the help of the "truth machine," and the device has also appeared in countless movies and television shows. Bunn finds fascinating the lie detector's ability to straddle the realms of rational science and sheer fantasy. He examines how the machine emerged as a technology of truth, transporting readers back to the obscure origins of criminology itself, ultimately concluding that the lie detector owes as much to popular culture as it does to factual science.

Aim: The Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) is the most studied and validated instrument to measure psychopathy. We aimed to explore its items content invariance to forensic schizophrenic subjects. Method: We examined the PCL-R protocol of 15 male forensic schizophrenic subjects and attributed a score of sensitivity to psychotic symptomatology to each item score. Results: Results suggest that the applicability of the PCL-R items to a forensic schizophrenic sample is not to be blindly warranted. Some items more systematically positively influenced by psychotic symptoms (e.g. Shallow Affect, Lack of Remorse or Guilt), while others were negatively influenced (e.g. Promiscuous Sexual Behavior, Glib and Superficial Charm), or not influenced at all (e.g. Criminal Versatility). Conclusions: The current study suggest that the applicability of the PCL-R items to a forensic schizophrenic sample is not to be blindly warranted. We discuss both psychometric and conceptual implications for the measurement of psychopathy when a diagnosis of schizophrenia has been established. ; La Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R) est l'outil le plus communément utilisé et recommandé pour mesurer la psychopathie. Cette étude met en évidence qu'avec une population médico-légale souffrant de schizophrénie, l'applicabilité des items PCL-R ne semble pas transposable. Nous proposons une réflexion tant sur le plan psychométrique que psychopathologique de la mesure de la psychopathie lorsqu'elle va de pair avec la schizophrénie. ; Peer reviewed

The Astropy Project supports and fosters the development of open-source and openly developed Python packages that provide commonly needed functionality to the astronomical community. A key element of the Astropy Project is the core package astropy, which serves as the foundation for more specialized projects and packages. In this article, we provide an overview of the organization of the Astropy project and summarize key features in the core package, as of the recent major release, version 2.0. We then describe the project infrastructure designed to facilitate and support development for a broader ecosystem of interoperable packages. We conclude with a future outlook of planned new features and directions for the broader Astropy Project. ; Google; NumFOCUS; Python Software Foundation; Space Telescope Science Institute; Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics; South African Astronomical Observatory; National Aeronautics and Space Administration through the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory [SV3-73016]; National Aeronautics Space Administration [NAS8-03060]; UW eScience Institute via Moore Foundation; Sloan Foundation; Washington Research Foundation; NASA's Planetary Astronomy Program; NASA [NAS8-03060, NAS 5-26555]; NASA through Hubble Fellowship - Space Telescope Science Institute [51316.01]; Giacconi Fellowship; FONDECYT [1170618]; MINEDUC-UA [ANT 1655, ANT 1656]; German Research Foundation (DFG) [SFB 881]; German Research Foundation (DFG); NSF [AST-1313484]; Spanish government [AYA2016-75808-R]; Gemini Observatory; Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute, under the RD program ; The Astropy community is supported by and makes use of a number of organizations and services outside the traditional academic community.

Les migrations internationales s'intensifient mais les systèmes de protection sociale restent attachés à un territoire. Coordonner les législations entre États pour assurer une continuité des droits aux travailleurs migrants devient primordial.0
