Abstract:
Abstract The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between age and temperament as well as reproductive results in female raccoon dogs. The study was carried out at two raccoon dog breeding farms located in south-eastern Poland. A total of 189 foundation stock females were evaluated for temperament using a modified behavioural empathy test. Animals were classified into five temperament groups: very fearful (VF), fearful (F), confident (C), aggressive (A) and very aggressive (VA). The animals with calm temperament (C) formed the largest group (49.9%) whereas the smallest number of animals was classified as VA (5.6%). The influence of age on the temperament of raccoon dog females and the number of young born and weaned (P≤0.01) was revealed. At the same time, temperament did not affect reproductive parameters (P>0.05). Summing up, the results of this study indicate lack of correlation between temperament and reproductive parameters. It can be assumed that the elimination of aggressive animals from the foundation stock will not compromise production results and can help to facilitate handling and improve animal welfare.

Abstract:
Abstract A questionnaire is an integral component of methods determining the temperaments of dogs. From the range of questionnaires used for evaluation of a dog’s temperament, we selected C-BARQ. This particular type of questionnaire allowed us to determine the degree of agreement of evaluations of the same dog by individual members of one household. The evaluation included dogs in 29 households with a total of 71 members. The degree of agreement between ratings of individual members of the same household was determined by Intraclass correlations coefficient (ICC). The correlations observed ranged between 0.53 and 0.9, depending on the category. This result is further supported by the results of other studies that showed similar perceptions of the same dog between family members.

Abstract:
The article discusses the results of the study devoted to one of the most important aspects of service dog breeding – the psychophysiological compatibility of a specialist cynologist and a dog. The main methods for collecting empirical material were the system of checking the dynamic characteristics of ARAKS and the methodology for determining the characteristics of the temperament of cynologists, developed by H. Eysenck. The results of the study emphasize the direct influence of the compatibility of the temperament of the cynologist and the service dog on the results of training and joint performance of service tasks. In institutions of the penal system in order to increase the effectiveness of the cynological service it is advisable to take into account the psychophysiological features in the formed cynologist-dog pairs.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the temperament of dogs on the basis of behavioral observations, with emphasis on 24 selected traits and behaviors. From the observations, the temperament of the dogs was determined and the animals were assigned to one of two personality groups: introvert or extrovert. The study involved 46 dogs. The agglomeration method, Pearson’s 1-r distance, and Ward’s binding method were used. As shown by the statistical analysis, 18 dogs (39%) were assessed as introverts and 28 dogs (61%) exhibited extrovert traits. To construct a model for the assessment of canine temperament using the identified traits, logistic regression was performed with the independent variables, number of extrovert traits (ETs) and introvert traits (ITs), and a dichotomous dependent variable (1 = extrovert, 0 = introvert), reflecting the assessment of the temperament of the dog based on the observations and results of the original questionnaire.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária
Cada vez mais a sociedade atual tenta fornecer meios que facilitam e melhoram a qualidade de vida dos seres humanos. Os cães de assistência são um desses meios. Os cães-guia auxiliam pessoas cegas, os cães para surdos auxiliam pessoas com dificuldades de audição graves e os cães de serviço auxiliam pessoas com problemas motores, orgânicos ou mentais. Este tipo de cães passa por um processo de aprendizagem através de um treino especializado de acordo com o tipo de utilizador, sendo o reforço positivo e o clicker as técnicas mais utilizadas para se obter tais objetivos. Além disso, a escolha das raças e os seus temperamentos são de extrema importância, pois está em causa a segurança de um ser humano com incapacidades. O objetivo principal deste trabalho foi caraterizar os cães de assistência em Portugal, tendo sido feitos 2 tipos de questionários, um às associações que treinam cães de assistência e o outro aos utilizadores desses mesmos cães. Foram feitos inquéritos a 3 associações e a 32 utilizadores espalhados pelo País. Verificou-se que a raça mais utilizada é a Labrador Retriever devido à sua personalidade calma, à sua memória e à sua destreza física. Também se aferiu a importância da esterilização de todos os cães de assistência assim como a sua vacinação. Finalmente averiguou-se que os utilizadores destes animais se sentem mais confiantes, seguros, com melhor autoestima e conseguem socializar-me com maior facilidade com a sociedade em geral, após estes animais fazerem parte das suas vidas. Também sentem uma ligação muito forte com o seu cão de assistência, pois cada vez mais a lei permite que este tipo de cães acompanhem os seus utilizadores em qualquer local público, sejam transportes ou estabelecimentos comerciais.
ABSTRACT - Today´s society increasingly tries to provide a way to ease and improve the quality of the human being life. Assistance dogs is one of them. Guide dogs help blind people, hearing dogs assist people with severe hearing difficulties and service dogs help people with mobility, organic or mental problems. This type of dogs undergo a learning process using a specialized training in accordance with the type of users. Positive reinforcement and clicker techniques are the most used to achieve those aims. Moreover, breed and temperament choice is of utmost importance as the safety of people with disabilities is at stake. The main objective of this study was to characterize assistance dogs in Portugal in order to achieve that goal, two types of questionnaires were made, the first one to associations that train assistance dogs, and the another one to assistance dogs users. Inquires were made to three associations and 32 users throughout the country. It was found that Labrador Retriever is the most used breed due to its relaxed personality, its memory and its physical ability. The importance of neutering/spaying and vaccination was also accessed for all dogs. Finally we found that dog users feel more confident, secure, with better self-esteem and manage to socialize easier with society in general, after these animals were envolved in their lifes. In our days, law‟s allow these type of dogs to accompany their users in any public place, whether transport or commercial facilities, therefore enabling establishment of very strong connection with their owners since they share almost all their daily tasks.

Abstract:
O presente trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a relação entre as características comportamentais apresentadas pelos cães nos centros de controle de zoonoses (CCZs) e o escore total do questionário proposto por Archer e Ireland (2011) que mede aspectos do vínculo entre seres humanos e cães., além de verificar a relação entre as características físicas e comportamentais dos animais e o tempo de permanência nos Centros de Controle de Zoonoses. Para tal, o trabalho foi realizado junto aos Centros de Controle de Zoonoses dos municípios de São Paulo e Guarulhos, utilizando os cães disponíveis para a adoção. Foram selecionados de maneira aleatória 165 animais. Todos os parâmetros físicos (obtidos através de observação direta e consultas de prontuários) e comportamentais (obtidos através de consultas de prontuários, questionários respondidos por funcionários e testes comportamentais) foram comparados com o escore total do questionário relacionado ao vínculo, utilizado de 58 a 68 dias após a adoção e com o tempo de permanência do animal no CCZ. Nenhum dos parâmetros comportamentais ou físicos apresentaram relação com o escore total obtido através do questionário. O tempo de permanência nos CCZs não apresentou correlação com nenhum desses parâmetros. Esse resultado indica que o tanto o score total do questionário como o tempo de permanência nos CCZs podem estar relacionados à outros fatores como a experiência prévia das pessoas que adotam.
The present work aimed to analyze the relationship between dogs behavioral characteristics exhibited in zoonosis control centers (CCZs) and the attachment of the families that adopted them, 58-68 days after the adoption. In addition, we investigated the relationship of length of stay at the CCZs with physical and behavioral characteristics of dogs. The work was done at the CCZs of São Paulo and Guarulhos cities (São Paulo state, Brazil) using 165 randomly selected dogs, available for adoption. Physical and behavioral parameters were obtained through direct observation, medical records, staff questionnaires and behavioral tests. The parameters were compared with the total score of a human-dog attachment questionnaire (ARCHER and IRELAND, 2011), and with the length of stay at the CCZ. None of the physical or behavioral parameters correlate with the questionnaire total score or with the length of stay. This result indicates that both the total score of the questionnaire and the length of stay in the CCZs may be related to other factors such as previous experience of adoptants.

A relação alométrica entre frequência cardíaca (FC) e peso corporal, postulada há anos, vem sendo refutada. Estudos acerca da variação e influência de fatores sobre parâmetros hemodinâmicos e eletrocardiográficos em cães não são abundantes. O escopo deste estudo foi avaliar a relação entre FC e peso corporal em cães, bem como a influência do peso sobre os parâmetros eletrocardiográficos (ECG). Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo (1) mediante a análise da relação entre FC, parâmetros eletrocardiográficos e peso corporal através de traçados de ECG armazenados pelo Serviço de Cardiologiadurante os anos de 2012-2013;já no estudoprospectivo (2) – utilizou-se a eletrocardiografia e o exame de Holter para análise da variabilidade da frequência cardíaca e determinação das variáveis clínicas: peso corporal, idade, raça, sexo, temperamento, frequência respiratória (FR), temperatura corporal, pressão arterial sistêmica e dosagem séricade adrenalina e noradrenalina, dividindo-se os cães em cinco grupos de peso: < 5 kg (8), 5-10 (10), 10-25 (10), 25-45 (10) e > 45 kg (10). As variáveis do ECG variaram conforme o peso. A amplitude da onda R foi maior em cães com idade acima de cinco anos. A concentração de adrenalina aumentou conforme aumento do peso corporal. A FC foi maior no grupo de animais nervosos e a FR foi maior no grupo de animais agitados. As correlações obtidas entre FC e peso e FC e ASC foram fracas. Não houve diferença entre os índices do Holter entre os grupos de pesos.Não existe relação alométrica entre FC e peso corporal em cães. Existe uma relação diretamente proporcional entre adrenalina e peso em cães. O temperamento altera os parâmetros clínicos FC e FR. O peso influencia as variáveis eletrocardiográficas. A análise da FC deve ser realizada considerando-se patamares (direcionada ao metabolismo energético, segundo a faixa etária, sexo e temperamento).
The allometric relationship between heart rate (HR) and body weight, posited for years, has been refuted. Studies on the variation and influence of several factors on the hemodynamic and electrocardiographic parameters in dogs are not plentiful. The scope of this study was to evaluate the relationship between HR and body weight in healthy dogs, as well as the influence of the weight on the electrocardiographic parameters (ECG). We conducted a retrospective study (1) by means of the analysis of the relationship between HR, electrocardiographic parameters and body weight in ECG tracings stored by cardiology department during the years 2012-2013; prospective study (2)analyzing the ambulatory electrocardiogram and by Holter method for analysis of heart rate variability and clinical variables measurement: body weight, age, breed, gender, temperament, breath rate (BR), body temperature and blood pressure, and dosage of serum catecholamines epinephrine and norepinephrine, into five groups of dogs divided according to different weight ranges: < 5 kg (8), 5-10 (10), 10-25 (10), 25-45 (10) e > 45 kg (10). The ECG variables varied according to weight. The amplitude of the R wave was higher in dogs above five years. The epinephrine concentration increased as body weight increased. HR was higher in the group of nervous animals and BR was higher in the group with agitated animals. The correlations between HR and weight and HR and body surface area were weak. There was no difference between the Holter indices among the weight groups. There is no allometric relationship between HR and body weight in dogs. There is a directly proportional relationship between epinephrine and weight in dogs. Temperament changes the clinical parameters HR and BR. The weight influences the electrocardiographic variables. The HR analysis should be performed considering levels (directed to energy metabolism, according to age, gender and temperament).

Abstract:
A presente Tese teve por objetivo verificar a relação entre dor, temperamento e problemas de comportamento em crianças com queixa de dor de cabeça. Para a realização deste objetivo, foram desenvolvidos três objetivos específicos: 1) identificar a prevalência de dor em uma amostra de crianças cadastradas em Núcleos de Atenção Primária do Programa de Saúde da Família (PSF); 2) comparar dois grupos de crianças diferenciados em relação à presença de queixa de dor de cabeça, quanto a temperamento e problemas de comportamento e 3) identificar o melhor modelo de predição de queixa de dor de cabeça em crianças na fase pré-escolar. A amostra foi composta de 75 crianças e suas mães, as quais pertenciam a famílias cadastradas em Núcleos de Atenção Primária do PSF. De forma a atender ao segundo objetivo, a amostra foi distribuída em dois grupos, de acordo com a presença de queixas de dor de cabeça das crianças, que foi referida pela mãe, por meio do Questionário sobre histórico de saúde, queixa de dor e desenvolvimento da criança, sendo 22 crianças com queixa de dor de cabeça (Grupo CD) e 53 crianças sem esta queixa (Grupo SD). A coleta de dados foi realizada em visitas domiciliares com entrevistas com as mães. Na primeira entrevista foram aplicados a SCID Não- Paciente- Entrevista Clínica Estruturada para DSM III-R, o Questionário da Associação Brasileira de Estudos Populacionais, a Escala de Eventos Vitais, o Teste de Cefaléia e o Inventário de Sintomas de Stress para adultos de Lipp. Na segunda entrevista foram aplicados o Inventário de Comportamentos para as idades 1 ½- 5 anos (CBCL for ages 1 ½- 5), o Questionário de Comportamento da Criança (CBQ) e o Questionário sobre histórico de saúde, queixa de dor e desenvolvimento da criança. Foi realizada a análise de comparação entre grupos de crianças distribuídas de acordo com a presença de queixa de dor de cabeça referida pela mãe. A fim de identificar o melhor modelo de predição de queixa de dor de cabeça das crianças na fase pré-escolar, referida pela mãe, utilizou-se da análise de regressão logística. De acordo com os resultados, na análise de comparação entre grupos independentes, em relação ao temperamento, as crianças com queixa de dor de cabeça apresentaram significativamente mais desconforto quando comparadas as crianças sem esta queixa. Em relação aos problemas de comportamento, as crianças com queixa de dor de cabeça apresentaram significativamente mais problemas totais de comportamento, de internalização e externalização, sendo que os problemas totais e internalizantes apresentaram níveis de classificação clínica, quando comparadas às crianças sem esta queixa. As crianças do grupo com queixa de dor de cabeça apresentaram mais comportamento agressivo no eixo externalizante e, reação emocional, queixas somáticas e retraimento no eixo internalizantes, em relação às crianças do grupo sem esta queixa. A fim de verificar as variáveis preditoras da presença de queixa de dor de cabeça das crianças pré-escolares, foi testado um modelo de predição, utilizando-se a análise de regressão logística, o qual identificou a presença de sintomas de enxaqueca materna foi a melhor preditora da presença de queixa de dor de cabeça em crianças pré-escolares. Os achados apontam que crianças pré-escolares com queixa de dor de cabeça são vulneráveis a apresentarem mais queixas de dor e problemas de comportamento com classificação clinica quando comparadas às crianças sem esta queixa.
The aim of the present study was to verify the relation between pain, temperament and behavior problems in children with headache complaints at preschool age. Three specifics objectives were carried out: 1) to identify the pain prevalence in the children registered in the Family Health Program of School Health Center; 2) to assess temperament and behavior problems in children with headache in comparison to children with no headache; 3) to identify the predictors for headache in preschool children. The sample was composed of 75 children from three to five years old and their mothers, registered in the Family Health Program of School Health Center. To attend the second objective, the sample was allocated into two groups, according of the presence of headache complaints in children, based in the mothers report. The Health History, the pain complaints and the developmental of children Questionnaire was used to investigate health history and headache complaints in children. The Group H including 22 children with headache complaints and Group NH, including 53 children without these complaints. The data collection was carried out by an expert researcher in two sessions with the mothers. In the first interview, the following instruments were used for data collection: the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM - III - R / SCID Non Patient, the Brazilian Association of Market Research Institutes Questionnaire, the Life Events Scale, the Brazilian Headache Society Test, the Stress Symptom for Adults Lipps Inventory. And in the second interview, the following instruments were used: Childrens Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ), Child Behavior Checklist 1.5-5 (CBCL) and Health history, pain complaints and development of children Questionnaire. Comparison between groups for independent samples was done. Logistic regression analysis was done to identify the variables that predicted the presence of headache complaints in preschool children. Spearman correlations coefficient were calculated. According to the results, in relation to temperament, there was statistical difference between groups in the Discomfort dimension of the temperament. Children with headache complaints presented higher discomfort mean score compared to the group with no headache. In relation to behavior problems, the results showed that children with headache complaints presented more total problems, Externalizing and Internalizing problems than children with no complaints. Moreover, most of the children with headache complaints had higher percentage of the clinical index for Total problems and Internalizing problems than group of the children with no headache. Children with headache complaints exhibited higher T-scores on Aggressive Behavior, Emotionally Reactive, Somatic Complaints and Withdrawn than children with no complaints. The prediction model analyzed through logistic regression revealed only the presence of headache symptoms in mothers as a predictor of presence of headache complaints in preschool children. In conclusion, these findings suggest that preschool children with headache complaints and with mothers with headache are vulnerable to exhibit more pain complaints and behavior problems with index clinical compared to the children with no headache.

Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária
Temperament Tests can be a forensic tool as they are often used to clarify legal cases in which dogs were allegedly involved in circumstances of aggression towards humans or other dogs. The test used in this study, the standardized temperament test of Lower Saxony, a battery type test of 36 situations scaled from 1-7 aims to identify those dogs that show disturbed or inadequate aggression at the point of the evaluation. To be able to use this test as a forensic decision making tool it is important to understand if aggressive behaviour shown in the test can be altered through training. The records of all Temperament Tests applied at the Hamburg Shelter since 2006 to 2016, a total of 264 were analysed. From these records, the dogs that were subject to two Temperament Tests were chosen: n= 28 dogs. These dogs had been subject to a first Temperament Test at the Shelter, were trained, and then took a re-test. The 36 situations comprising the test were bundled into 5 sub-groups of situations evaluating similar circumstances and the results of the first and the second temperament test were analysed applying a paired Wilcoxon signed rank test with continuity correction. The training the dogs had been subject to in the meantime was taken into consideration. The average values in two of the five bundles were lower in the second temperament test: in the bundle of situations where the dogs had to interact with threatening humans the average value went from 1.64 in the first test to 1.39 in the second test (P=0.03) and in the bundle of situations of dog-dog contact, the average value went from 1.98 in the first test to 1.53 in the second test (P=0.02). These results suggest that training does have an effect on the aggressive behaviour shown in some test situations. 23/28 dogs, 82,1%, passed the second Temperament Test after being trained at the shelter. Practical implications and future applicability of the test are discussed.
RESUMO - Testes de Temperamento podem ser uma ferramenta forense uma vez que são frequentemente utilizados para esclarecer casos legais nos quais cães alegadamente estiveram envolvidos em circunstâncias de agressão contra humanos ou outros cães. O teste utilizado neste estudo é o teste de temperamento estandardizado da Baixa Saxónia, na Alemanha. Este teste é constituído por uma bateria de subtestes, 36 situações avaliadas numa escala de 1-6 e pretende identificar aqueles cães que mostrem agressividade perturbada ou inadequada no momento da avaliação. Para poder utilizar este teste como ferramenta para tomar decisões forenses, é importante compreender se o comportamento agressivo mostrado no teste pode ser alterado através de treino. Foram analisados os resultados de todos os Testes de Temperamento aplicados no Abrigo de Hamburgo desde 2006 até 2016, um total de 264. Deste conjunto de dados foram selecionados todos aqueles cães que, por alguma razão, repetiram o Teste de Temperamento: n=28. Estes cães foram sujeitos a um primeiro Teste de Temperamento no abrigo, foram treinados e voltaram a ser testados. As 36 situações constituintes do teste foram agrupadas em cinco subgrupos de situações que avaliam circunstâncias similares e os resultados agregados do primeiro e segundo teste foram comparados utilizando um teste de Wilcoxon emparelhado e relacionados com o treino ministrado entretanto. O valor das médias de dois dos cinco subgrupos foram inferiores no segundo teste: no subgrupo de situações em que os cães tinham de interagir com humanos que agiam de forma ameaçadora o valor da média alterou-se de 1.64 no primeiro teste para 1.39 no segundo (P=0.03) e no subgrupo de interação cão-cão o valor médio alterou-se de 1.98 no primeiro teste para 1.53 no segundo (P=0.02). Estes resultados sugerem que o treino influencia o comportamento agressivo demonstrado em algumas situações do teste. Para além disso, 23/28 cães, 82,4%, passaram no segundo Teste de Temperamento. Foram discutidas implicações práticas e a aplicabilidade futura deste teste.

Abstract:
Accidental poisoning of domestic dogs is an unfortunate occurrence when using poison baits to control introduced pests such as feral cats, red foxes, and wild dogs. This study aimed to investigate how dog breed (i.e., toy, terrier, sporting, domestic working and working dogs) and temperament influence aversion methods. Using non-poisonous baits and a device which emits a small electrical correction, domestic dogs were trained to avoid commercially-available non-toxic FoxOff® baits. Fifty-six dogs were recruited through online media services (e.g., Facebook). Each dog underwent four sessions of ‘one-on-one’ learned aversion training, spread across 6 weeks where individual dogs were subjected to a small electrical correction after having touched a non-toxic bait that has been attached to the training device and earthing rod (this created an electrical charged bait). Each dog’s behaviour, temperament and level of trainability were monitored during each session, based on temperament and behavioural test guidelines and procedures. Dog breeds were categorised based on their level of trainability; easy (i.e., only one to two training sessions and one to two repetitions of electrified baits during those sessions were required), moderate (i.e., only two to three training sessions and two to three repetitions of electrified baits during those training sessions were required), and difficult (i.e., all four training sessions and three repetitions of electrified baits during those four training sessions were required). The results indicated that 50 dogs were successfully trained to avoid the bait and that temperament and breed significantly influenced their level of trainability. Moreover, specific temperaments of obedience, excitability, playfulness and boldness were significantly related to each of the dog breeds respectively. Terriers were classified as having a difficult level of trainability; sporting and domestic working dogs displayed a moderate level of trainability, and working and toy dogs presented with easy levels of trainability based on their behavioural responses during the four training sessions. Furthermore, the temperament traits boldness (negatively correlated with trainability), fearfulness and anxiousness (positively correlated with trainability) significantly influenced dog trainability. This study demonstrated that learned aversion training with domestic and working dogs of different breeds and temperaments has future potential in relation to the development and implementation of practices involving learned aversion training methods for dogs.

Abstract:
In 2005 Swedish Armed Forces (SAF) started a breeding program of military working dogs. The dogs leave SAF’s kennel at an age of 8 weeks and live with puppy raisers. To evaluate the suitability of dogs for military work the dogs conduct a behavioural test at an age of 15-18 months. An “Index value” is extracted from this behavioural test. The puppy raisers answered a modified version of Canine Behavioral Assessment and Research Questionnaire (C-BARQ) when the dogs were approximately 12 months old. Answered questionnaires and results from the behavioural test were obtained for 59 dogs. Dogs that had passed the behavioural test had tendency for higher scores for “Trainability” (p = 0.078) and “If lived with other animals” (p = 0.066). Failing dogs had significantly higher score for “Stranger Directed Fear” (p = 0.006), ”Non-Social Fear” (p = 0.005), “Dog Directed Fear” (p = 0.021), “Hours of daily activation” (p = 0.001), “Mounting objects” (p = 0.012), and a tendency for higher risk of “Urinating when home alone” (p = 0.058). In a regressions between the “Index value” and the values of the questions from C-BARQ, the “Index value” was negatively correlated to “Stranger Directed Fear” (p = 0.002), “Non-social Fear” (p = 0.003), and “Dog Directed Fear” (p = 0.006). The “Index value” was positively correlated to “Trainability” (p = 0.013), “Hours left home alone” (p=0.043), “Hyperactive” (p = 0.018), “Chases shadows/light spots” (p = 0.043), and a positive tendency for “Chewing on inappropriate objects” (p = 0.075). From a PCA at the categories in C-BARQ, 3 components were extracted. All three components had a correlation to the “Index value”. The results show that the use of C-BARQ can indicate whether the dog will pass the behavioural test or not.

Existem especificidades nos tipos de cuidados que pais e mães provêm aos filhos, de modo que as repercussões de seu envolvimento com as crianças ocorrem de maneira diferenciada e em esferas distintas do desenvolvimento. Além da parentalidade, características do temperamento da criança também influenciam o desenvolvimento, ressaltando-se que a trajetória desenvolvimental é permeada pela cultura. Este estudo buscou comparar o envolvimento de pai e de mãe com os filhos, bem como relacionar o envolvimento paterno com problemas de externalização e competência social de pré-escolares, considerando a contribuição do envolvimento materno e do temperamento infantil, em famílias residentes em Santa Catarina e em Montreal. Participaram 150 casais residentes em Santa Catarina e 160 casais residentes em Montreal, os quais responderam aos seguintes questionários: Sociodemográfico, Questionário de Engajamento Parental (QEP) e Children`s Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ). Professores das crianças avaliaram seu desenvolvimento social através do Perfil Sócioafetivo (PSA), Escala de Comportamento Social do Pré-Escolar (PSBS-T) e do Inventário dos Comportamentos de Crianças entre 1½-5 anos (TRF). Realizou-se análise quantitativa de dados por meio do tratamento estatístico (SPSS). Contataram-se semelhanças entre as duas amostras: a) pais e mães mostram-se envolvidos com suas crianças e realizam com maior frequência suporte emocional; b) mães são mais envolvidas, em comparação aos pais, de forma geral e em várias dimensões e pais são mais envolvidos em jogos físicos; c) mães são altamente envolvidas em cuidados básicos e pais relatam baixo envolvimento em tarefas domésticas; d) pais envolvem-se mais com crianças do sexo masculino; e) alto controle com esforço, alto suporte emocional materno e sexo da criança (feminino) predizem maior competência social; f) maior extroversão e menor envolvimento materno em dimensões específicas prediz mais problemas de externalização; g) modelos em que se utilizou o envolvimento paterno como variável independente para explicar agressão física e problemas de externalização foram melhores, em comparação aos maternos.Diferenças entre as amostras foram evidenciadas: a) pais residentes em Santa Catarina apresentam elevado envolvimento em disciplina e pais residentes em Montreal, em jogos físicos; b) pais e mães de Santa Catarina afirmam disciplinar com frequência a criança, enquanto pais e mães de Montreal referem baixo engajamento nessa atividade; c) em famílias brasileiras, jogos físicos realizados pelo pai predizem problemas de externalização; d) extroversão e controle com esforço mediam a relação entre problemas de exernalização e jogos físicos paternos. Os resultados apontaram que o envolvimento paterno sofre mais influências, em relação ao materno, do contexto cultural e que o pai parece desempenhar um papel específico na socialização da agressividade dos filhos. Ademais, evidenciou-se que temperamento infantil e envolvimento parental influenciam o desenvolvimento social. Espera-se que os achados contribuam para enriquecer o conhecimento acerca das especificidades das funções parentais, especialmente quanto a contribuição paterna no desenvolvimento social de filhos pré-escolares, bem como fundamentem discussões sobre a importância do pai no contexto familiar, de forma a incentivar e promover interações familiares de qualidade que favoreçam o desenvolvimento infantil.

Abstract : There are specific types of care that parents provide to their children, so the impact of their involvement with children occures in different ways and in different spheres of development. In addition to parenting, child's temperament characteristics also influence the development, emphasizing that the developmental trajectory is permeated by the culture. This study aimed to compare father and mother involvement with the children in families living in Santa Catarina and in Montreal. The study also investigated the relation of father involvement with externalizing behavioral problems and social competence of preschool children, as well as the contribution of maternal involvement and child temperament in this relation. The participants were 150 couples living in Santa Catarina and 160 couples living in Montreal. They answered the following questionnaires: Sociodemographic, Parental Engagement Questionnaire (QEP) and Children`s Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ). Children teachers rated their social development through Socio-affective Profile (PSA), Preschool Social Behavior Scale (PSBS-T) and the Inventory of Child Behaviors between 1½-5 years (TRF). Quantitative data analyzes were performed through statistical treatment (SPSS). Similarities between the two samples were found: a) parents were involved with their children and they performed emotional support more often; b) mothers are more involved, compared to fathers, in general and in various dimensions and fathers are more involved in physical play; c) mothers are highly involved in basic care and fathers report lower engagement in household chores; d) fathers engage more with male children; e) effortful control, high maternal emotional support and sex (female) predict increased social competence; f) higher surgency and lower maternal involvement in specific dimensions predict more externalizing problems; g) models where fathers involvement was used as independent variable to explain physical aggression and externalizing problems were better, compared to mothers envolvement. Differences between the samples were found: a) fathers who live in Santa Catarina were high involved in discipline and fathers who live in Montreal, in physical play; b) parents of Santa Catarina often discipline children,while parents living in Montreal refer low engagement in this activity; c) in brazilian families, physical play provided by the father predicts externalization problems; d) surgency and effortful control mediate the relation between externalization problems and father physical play. The results showed that father involvement suffers more influence, in relation to the mother, of the cultural context and that the father appears to play a specific role in the socialization of children?s aggression. Moreover, it was shown that infant temperament and parental involvement influence social development. It is expected that the findings contribute to enrich the knowledge about the specifics of parental functions, especially the father?s contribution to the social development of preschool children, as well as substantiate discussions about the importance of fathers in the familiar context in order to encourage family quality interactions that promote child development.

Abstract:
INTRODUÇÃO: Fibromialgia tem sido considerada uma síndrome, na qual a etiologia e etiopatogenia ainda permanecem pouco esclarecidas. Transtornos depressivos e ansiosos são altamente prevalentes nesses pacientes, entretanto, em relação aos aspectos da personalidade, os dados de literatura são pouco homogêneos. Poucos estudos têm investigado a relevância de fatores emocionais, incluindo aspectos da personalidade, como preditores para intensidade da dor em fibromialgia. Cloninger desenvolveu uma teoria da personalidade integrando os aspectos biológicos e psicológicos, estruturando o Inventário de Temperamento e Caráter para investigar quatro traços de temperamento (esquiva ao dano, busca de novidades, dependência de gratificação e persistência) e três traços de caráter (auto-direcionamento, cooperatividade e auto-transcendência). Estudos sugerem que o Inventário de Temperamento e Caráter possui valor preditivo, assim alterações nos traços esquiva ao dano e autodirecionamento poderiam predizer vulnerabilidade para alguns transtornos. Este estudo teve como objetivo principal investigar o valor preditivo do fator esquiva ao dano para intensidade da dor em pacientes com fibromialgia após o período de um ano a um ano e seis meses (T2) da primeira avaliação (T1). Os objetivos secundários deste estudo foram: comparar os escores de esquiva ao dano e os demais traços do Inventário de Temperamento e Caráter entre mulheres com fibromialgia e um grupo controle de mulheres sem a doença. Considerando apenas o grupo de pacientes com fibromialgia, o estudo investigou diferenças nos traços do Inventário de Temperamento e Caráter entre as pacientes com depressão maior atual e pacientes sem depressão maior atual. MÉTODOS: O estudo foi desenvolvido entre abril de 2006 e setembro de 2009 em duas etapas: transversal e prospectiva. Na etapa transversal, 78 mulheres foram comparadas no fator esquiva ao dano com 78 mulheres do grupo controle. Os dois grupos foram avaliados em suas características sócio-demográficas e clínicas, sintomatologia depressiva (Inventário de depressão de Beck e HAM-D) e ansiosa (IDATEestado e HAM-A) e diagnóstico de transtornos mentais (M.I.N.I.). O grupo de pacientes também foi avaliado em relação à intensidade da dor e tempo de fibromialgia. Na etapa prospectiva, 42 pacientes foram reavaliadas em suas características clínicas e sócio-demográficas, intensidade da dor, diagnóstico de depressão maior atual e sintomas depressivos e ansiosos. RESULTADOS: Na comparação dos escores do fator esquiva ao dano, as pacientes apresentaram maior média que o grupo controle, e após análise covariância essa diferença foi explicada pela sintomatologia depressiva e ansiosa. Em relação aos outros traços de personalidade, as pacientes apresentaram maiores médias no fator auto-transcendência e menores médias nos fatores busca de novidades, dependência de gratificação, auto-direcionamento e cooperatividade quando comparadas com o grupo controle. Essas diferenças, após análise de covariância, se associaram com sintomas depressivos e ansiosos. Entretanto, as pacientes com fibromialgia mantiveram menores escores no fator busca de novidades mesmo com o ajuste para a sintomatologia depressiva e ansiosa. No grupo de pacientes, o fator esquiva ao dano não se correlacionou com intensidade da dor e tempo de doença. As pacientes com fibromialgia e depressão maior atual apresentaram maiores escores em esquiva ao dano, e menores escores em auto-direcionamento e cooperatividade quando comparadas com as pacientes sem depressão. Na etapa prospectiva, o fator esquiva ao dano não apresentou valor preditivo para intensidade ou variação da dor. Além disso, nenhum dos outros traços de personalidade se correlacionou com a intensidade ou com a variação da dor de T1 para T2. CONCLUSÕES: Os resultados deste estudo indicam que embora pacientes com fibromialgia apresentem maior pontuação no fator esquiva ao dano do Inventário de Temperamento e Caráter quando comparadas com mulheres sem a doença, essa diferença se deve a maior intensidade de sintomas depressivos e ansiosos nas pacientes e não à presença da fibromialgia em si. As diferenças encontradas nos traços de personalidade entre as pacientes com depressão e pacientes sem depressão sugerem que a depressão nessas pacientes possui, em parte, semelhanças com transtorno depressivo maior (depressão primária). Em relação à etapa prospectiva, os resultados indicam que o fator de temperamento esquiva ao dano não apresenta valor preditivo para intensidade da dor ou para variação da dor em mulheres com fibromialgia
INTRODUCTION: Fibromyalgia has been considered as a syndrome that the etiology and etiopathogeny remains unclear. Depressive and anxiety disorders are very common in fibromyalgia patients. However data about the relationship between personality characteristics and fibromyalgia are less homogeneous. Few studies have investigated the relevance of emotional factors including personality aspect as predictors of pain intensity in fibromyalgia. Cloninger developed a theory unifying psychological and biological aspects of personality, and created the Temperament and Character Inventory, to evaluate four temperament traits (harm avoidance, novelty seeking, reward dependence and persistence) and tree character traits (self-directedness, cooperativeness and self-transcendence). Studies have suggested that the Temperament and Character Inventory presents a predictive value, thus alterations on harm avoidance and self-directedness could predict vulnerability to some disorders. The main objective of this study was to investigate the predictive value of harm avoidance for pain intensity in fibromyalgia patients after the period of one year to one year and six months (T2) from the first evaluation (T1). The secondary objectives were: to compare the harm avoidance temperament trait and the others traits of the Temperament and Character Inventory in fibromyalgia women with a control group without this diagnose. In the fibromyalgia group, the objectives were to compare the Temperament and Character Inventory traits between fibromyalgia patients with major depressive episode and fibromyalgia patients without this diagnose. METHOD: The study was developed between from June 2006 to September 2008 in two parts: transversal and prospective. In the transversal part 78 women with fibromyalgia were compared with 78 women without fibromyalgia. The two groups were evaluated in relation to socio-demographic and clinical characteristics, depressive (Beck Depression Inventory and HAM-D) and anxiety (IDATE-state and HAM-A) symptoms and psychiatric diagnoses (M.I.N.I.). The fibromyalgia patients were also evaluated regarding the disease duration and pain intensity. In the prospective part 42 patients were revaluated regarding socio-demographic and clinical characteristics, pain intensity, the presence of major depressive episode and anxiety and depressive symptoms. RESULTS: Fibromyalgia patients showed higher scores in harm avoidance than control group, after covariance analyze, this difference was explained by an increased severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms in the group with fibromyalgia. Comparing the other personality traits, patients with fibromyalgia showed increased scores in self-transcendence and low scores in novelty seeking, reward dependence, self-directness and cooperativeness when compared with those without fibromyalgia. After covariance analyze the difference between patients and control group were explained by an increased intensity of depressive and anxiety symptoms in patients with fibromyalgia. However, fibromyalgia patients maintained lower scores on novelty seeking even after adjustments for severity of depressive and anxiety symptom. Regarding the patients group, was not found an association between harm avoidance trait and disease duration or pain intensity. Patients with fibromyalgia and major depression episode showed increased scores in harm avoidance and low scores in self-directness and cooperativeness when compared with fibromyalgia patients without depression. In the prospective part the harm avoidance in T1 did not predict the pain intensity in T2 or pain variation from T1 to T2. There was no correlation between the other personality traits and pain intensity in T2 or pain variation from T1 to T2. CONCLUSION: The results of this study indicate that although women with fibromyalgia present higher scores in harm avoidance when compared with women without fibromyalgia, this difference is explained by an increased severity of depressive and anxiety symptoms in fibromyalgia patients and not because of fibromyalgia itself. The differences found in the personality traits between depressed fibromyalgia patients and non depressed patients suggest that depression in these patients is in part similar to the major depressive disorder (primary depression). Regarding the prospective part, the results indicate that the temperament trait harm avoidance does not have a predictive value for the pain intensity and pain variation in fibromyalgia patients

Abstract:
This chapter focuses on how the technoself develops in children through relationships with a “personal” robot technology, robotic pets, especially the robotic dog AIBO. Drawing on studies of children and AIBO as well as similar robotic technologies, I examine children’s ideas about and behaviors toward such robotic pets in order to describe three domains of the technoself: (1) ideas about the robot (the technological object); (2) ideas about the child’s relationship with the robot; and (3) ideas about the self-in-relationship with the robot. A dynamic developmental perspective is applied to each of the three domains of cognition and behavior—technological object, relationship, and self-in-relationship-- that make up the technoself. This perspective asks how variability in child characteristics, such as developmental level, gender, temperament, personality or intelligence; in contextual factors, such as family background or prior experience with other technologies; and in robotic pets themselves predict these three aspects of the technoself.

Na pecuária de bovinos de corte, o temperamento mais dócil está ligado à facilidade de manejo e melhor qualidade da carne, e o escore composto de balança é método amplamente utilizado para a avaliação do temperamento. Na pesquisa sobre a qual versa este artigo, desenvolveu-se uma ferramenta de coleta de dados de movimentação de bovinos em ambiente de contenção, sobre a qual foram propostos e avaliados cálculos que representassem o temperamento quando comparado ao escore composto de balança. Para a ferramenta de coleta, utilizou-se um sensor acelerômetro capaz de monitorar movimentações em três dimensões. Após a análise das correlações entre os cálculos propostos e o escore composto de balança, concluiu-se que o cálculo envolvendo o somatório dos desvios padrão dos três eixos de movimentação é indicado para a avaliação de temperamento.

Abstract: This paper investigates the path of third generation Portuguese modern architect, Mário Bonito (1921/1976), in order to understand and clarify his contribution to the maturity process of portuguese modern architecture, that began at the end of the 1940s, strongly influenced by Le Corbusier. Through the understanding of his final academic work, CODA (Competition to Obtain the Architects Diploma), designated Pavilhão das Ilhas Adjacentes, located in Jardim do Palacio Cristal (Crystal Palace Gardens) in Porto, dated 1947/48, we intend to deepen his relationship with the modern premises of corbusier´s architecture, framed by portuguese reality. However Le Corbusier´s legacy in Mario Bonito´s work is not formal but thematic, in understanding the main issues that guide the intent of progressive man in molding a modern and just society. The paper covers themes characteristic to Portuguese modernist architecture such as the dialogue between craftsmanship and technique, compositional rigor and rational design issues resulting from the systematization of the construction processes, with the search for standardization of architectural and constructional elements. This dialogue emphasizes the compromise between tradition and modernity that will be present in all of Mário Bonito´s designed and written work, announcing the experimental temperament and formal coherence of his subsequent works. Resumen: Este artículo investiga el camino de la tercera generación de arquitecto moderno portugués, Mário Bonito (1921/1976), a fin de comprender y aclarar su contribución al proceso de la madurez de la arquitectura moderna portuguesa, que se inició a finales de la década de 1940, fuertemente influenciado por Le Corbusier. A través de la comprensión de su obra académica final, CODA (Concurso para Obtenção do Diploma de Arquitecto), designado Pavilhão das Ilhas Adjacentes, ubicado en Jardim do Palacio de Cristal en Porto, con fecha de 1947 / 48, tenemos la intención de profundizar su relación con las premisas modernas de la arquitectura Corbusiana, encuadradas por la realidad portuguesa. Sin embargo el legado de Le Corbusier en el trabajo de Mario Bonito no es formal, sino temático, en la comprensión de los temas principales que guían la intención del hombre progresista en el moldeo de una sociedad moderna y justa. El artículo abarca temas como el diálogo entre la artesanía y la técnica, el rigor compositivo y problemas de diseño que resulten de la sistematización de los procesos de construcción, con la búsqueda de la normalización de los elementos arquitectónicos y constructivos. Este diálogo enfatiza el compromiso entre la tradición y la modernidad que estará presente en todo trabajo diseñado y escrito de Mario Bonito, anunciando el temperamento experimental y coherencia formal de sus obras posteriores.

Abstract:
Objetivos: Los rasgos de personalidad son relevantes para comprender los trastornos por uso de sustancias (TUS) y la esquizofrenia (SZ-), pero existen pocos estudios en esta área en pacientes con esquizofrenia dual (SZ+). El presente trabajo examina el perfil de personalidad de pacientes SZ+ comparándolo con pacientes que presentan sólo uno de los dos diagnósticos (TUS o SZ-). Material y métodos: Se seleccionaron 165 pacientes varones distribuidos en tres grupos de 55 pacientes según el diagnóstico clínico realizado con criterios DSM-5: SZ+, SZ- y TUS. Todos ellos se hallaban en tratamiento, con abstinencia de más de tres meses y compensados de la sintomatología de SZ. Junto a una exhaustiva evaluación clínica se utilizó el inventario de Temperamento y Carácter reducido (TCI-R) de Cloninger para explorar el perfil de personalidad. Resultados y conclusiones: Considerando las dimensiones de temperamento, los pacientes TUS y SZ+ mostraron niveles más elevados de búsqueda de novedad mientras que los pacientes SZ- y SZ+ se caracterizaron por una mayor evitación del daño y una menor persistencia. Atendiendo a las dimensiones de carácter, los pacientes SZ+ mostraron los niveles más bajos de Autodirección, y la Autotrascendencia fue elevada en los grupos SZ- y SZ+. Varias características clínicas se asociaron con dimensiones de personalidad según el diagnóstico, y esto fue notable para los síntomas psiquiátricos de los grupos SZ- y SZ+. Los tres grupos presentaron un perfil de personalidad desadaptativo en comparación con la población general. Nuestros resultados indican un perfil diferente para TUS y SZ, con perfiles que aparecen combinados en el grupo SZ+, que también mostró puntuaciones extremas en algunos rasgos. Tener en cuenta los endofenotipos de personalidad en los tres grupos clínicos estudiados, pero especialmente en pacientes con SZ+, puede ayudar a diseñar intervenciones individualizadas más exitosas.

Se traslada al paciente a urgencias hospitalarias donde se pauta Olanzapina en dosis creciente hasta 10mg. Regresa al centro y en pocos días se corrige el sueño y se resuelve el cuadro clínico. El paciente relata historial previo de un único episodio depresivo en su juventud tras una ruptura. Describe personalidad con tendencia al optimismo, elevada actividad, múltiples planes, desde su juventud ha creado y cerrado diversas empresas... El consumo de alcohol y cocaína ha estado presente de forma habitual desde hace años, incrementado en los últimos meses, coincidiendo con la pauta de antidepresivo. Conclusión: Por su relato el paciente parece tener lo que se denomina temperamento hipertímico en este caso asociado a consumo de sustancias. La pauta de tratamiento antidepresivo incrementa el consumo y parece que la abstinencia y el ingreso favorecen que se desencadene un episodio de hipomanía, también en probable relación con tratamiento antidepresivo. La evolución del paciente se verá favorecida por la pauta de un estabilizador de ánimo, pudiendo establecer diagnóstico dentro del espectro bipolar.
