Resumo: Nesta dissertação discutimos em que medida experiências de cooperativismo no Brasil e Argentina se configuram enquanto alternativas de geração de trabalho e renda que permitem aos trabalhadores experiências de trabalho autônomo. Para tanto, analisamos duas cooperativas populares na cidade de Campinas, criadas a partir da Incubadora Tecnológica de Cooperativas Populares da UNICAMP e seis cooperativas populares na cidade de Buenos Aires, formadas a partir de empresas recuperadas. Essas experiências foram analisadas a partir de movimentos mais amplos nos quais elas se inserem, a saber, o movimento de Economia Solidária no Brasil e de Economia Social na Argentina. Não se trata, portanto, de uma comparação entre cooperativas brasileiras e argentinas, mas sim de movimentos. O trabalho de campo nos aponta para dois movimentos diferenciados, com características bastante distintas: no caso do Brasil, um movimento mais voltado para a geração de trabalho e renda, ainda que com dificuldades até para sua própria manutenção; no caso da Argentina, um movimento que extrapola a geração de renda, em direção a um trabalho mais participativo, mais democrático e mais autônomo
Summary: This work discusses experiences of cooperatives in Argentina and Brazil and the extend to which these experiences represent an alternative to job creation and income generation in which workers have autonomy. With this goal in mind, we analyzed two cooperatives in Campinas, Brazil that were created with the support of (a cooperative incubator associated with UNICAMP (Universidade de Campinas) - and six cooperatives in Buenos Aires, Argentina created from bankrupted companies. These experiences were analyzed from a broader perspective, taking into account the larger social movements to which they were a part of: the Economy of Solidarity in Brazil and the Social Economy in Argentina. This work is not a comparison between the Brazilian and Argentine cooperatives. It is, in fact, a comparison of the two social movements. The field work indicates that these are two very different movements with very different characteristics. In the case of Brazil, The Economy of Solidarity focuses on income and job creation, despite the difficulties for for its own survivor. In the case of Argentina, the focus goes beyond income generation towards a workplace that is more participative, democratic and autonomous

Resumo: O selo Som da Gente, ativo entre os anos de 1981 e 1992, foi criado e gerenciado pelo casal de compositores Walter Santos e Teresa Souza. A empresa produziu, ao todo, 46 discos exclusivamente instrumentais, que representam uma parte bastante significativa dos lançamentos daquele segmento, no período. A partir de um amplo levantamento bibliográfico e da realização de entrevistas com músicos e profissionais envolvidos na história do selo, procurou-se construir um extenso panorama da sua atuação, desde a escolha do cast até a divulgação e distribuição dos discos, no Brasil e no exterior, passando pela relação que se estabeleceu entre os artistas e os empresários. Analisando esses dados e incorporando-os em uma interpretação daquele momento específico do mercado fonográfico brasileiro, este trabalho pôde verificar o comportamento do selo num período de transição da estrutura de organização global desse mercado, no sentido da adoção de um sistema aberto de produção, em que a relação entre pequenas e grandes gravadoras tende a migrar de um cenário onde predomina a atuação autônoma ¿ a chamada produção independente ¿ para um cenário onde o predomínio é de uma atuação complementar entre elas ¿ as pequenas gravadoras produzindo estreitamente vinculadas às grandes

Full textEn la presente tesis se analizan diversos aspectos relacionados con la valoración personal que realiza del paciente hospitalizado en unidades de agudos de psiquiatría como son la autoestima, estigma interiorizado, la resistencia al estigma y la valoración de la experiencia de la hospitalización y está situado en un momento crucial del proceso de recuperación del paciente como es el alta hospitalaria. Objetivo general: Estudiar la relación que existe entre la autoestima, el estigma interiorizado, resistencia al estigma y la valoración de la experiencia del paciente al alta de las unidades de agudos de psiquiatría hospitalaria. Para poder llevar a cabo esta investigación nos planteamos la realización de dos estudios donde los objetivos fueron: Estudio 1: Validar un instrumento fiable y válido que permita medir la experiencia del paciente durante el ingreso hospitalario en las unidades de agudos de psiquiatría. Estudio 2: Analizar la autoestima, el estigma interiorizado, la resistencia al estigma y la experiencia del ingreso hospitalario al alta, en pacientes que han ingresado en unidades de agudos de psiquiatría. En el primer estudio se realizó una adaptación trans-cultural de una escala francesa, Satispsy 22, que mide la satisfacción del paciente ingresado en salas de agudos de psiquiatría. Así mismo, llevamos a cabo un estudio de las propiedades métricas de la escala tanto de su fiabilidad como de su validez incluido un análisis factorial confirmatorio. En el segundo estudio se realizó un análisis descriptivo de la muestra (n = 311) así como un análisis de regresión logistica, análisis de correlaciones y análisis de la varianza entre las variables de estudio. Los resultados del primer estudio mostraron una escala en español Satispsy-22-E con buenas propiedades métricas , equivalentes a la versión original. Los resultaros del segundo estudio revelaron, entre otros, que la autoestima correlaciona negativamente con el estigma interiorizado y positivamente con la resistencia al estigma. También mostró que aquellos que puntuaron con baja autoestima también puntuaren peor en la valoración de la experiencia del ingreso. Como conclusiones podemos decir que, la versión española de Satispsy-22 (Satispsy-22-E) puede describirse como una herramienta válida, con buenas propiedades psicométricas, para evaluar la satisfacción del paciente en salas de hospitalización de psiquiatría aguda. Los resultados de la escala mostraron que la preocupación de los pacientes en relación a la experiencia del ingreso hospitalario se centra en las dimensiones “Sentimientos durante la Hospitalización” y “Actividades”. Asímismo, aquellos pacientes que presentaron baja autoestima también mostraron puntuaciones más bajas en satisfacción. Adicionalmente, los resultados también mostraron que la satisfacción no actúa como una variable predictora de la autoestima. Comprobamos que los pacientes con baja autoestima al alta presentaban niveles más altos de estigma interiorizado y más bajos de resistencia al estigma. Igualmente, el estigma interiorizado, la alienación, la auto-asignación de estereotipos y la resistencia al estigma mostraron capacidad predictiva de la autoestima.
In this thesis, various aspects related to the personal assessment carried out by the hospitalized patient in acute psychiatric units are analyzed, such as self-esteem, internalized stigma, resistance to stigma and the assessment of the hospitalization experience and is located in a crucial moment in the patient's recovery process, such as discharge from the hospital. Objective: To study the relationship between self-esteem, internalized stigma, resistance to stigma, and the assessment of the patient's experience at discharge from acute hospital psychiatric units. In order to carry out this research, we planned to carry out two studies where the objectives were: Study 1: Validate a reliable and valid instrument that allows the measurement of the patient's experience during hospital admission in acute psychiatric units. Study 2: To analyze self-esteem, internalized stigma, resistance to stigma and the experience of hospital admission at discharge, in patients who have been admitted to acute psychiatric units. In the first study, a cross-cultural adaptation of a French scale, Satispsy 22, was carried out, which measures the satisfaction of patients admitted to acute psychiatric wards. Likewise, we carried out a study of the metric properties of the scale, both its reliability and its validity, including a confirmatory factor analysis. In the second study, a descriptive analysis of the sample (n = 311) was performed, as well as a logistic regression analysis, correlation analysis, and analysis of variance between the study variables. The results of the first study showed a Satispsy-22-E scale in Spanish with good metric properties, equivalent to the original version. The results of the second study revealed, among others, that self-esteem correlates negatively with internalized stigma and positively with resistance to stigma. It also showed that those who scored with low self-esteem also scored worse in the assessment of the admission experience. As conclusions we can say that the Spanish version of Satispsy-22 (Satispsy-22-E) can be described as a valid tool, with good psychometric properties, to assess patient satisfaction in acute psychiatric hospital wards. The results of the scale showed that the concern of patients in relation to the experience of hospital admission is centered on the dimensions ""Feelings during Hospitalization"" and ""Activities"". Likewise, those patients who presented low self-esteem also showed lower satisfaction scores. Additionally, the results also showed that satisfaction does not act as a predictor of self-esteem. We found that patients with low self-esteem at discharge had higher levels of internalized stigma and lower levels of resistance to stigma. Likewise, internalized stigma, alienation, self-assignment of stereotypes and resistance to stigma showed predictive capacity for self-esteem.

Full text[CAT] El desenrotllament tecnològic ha canviat la forma en què els usuaris es relacionen amb els productes deixant de ser tresorers passius de funcions per a interactuar amb sistemes cada vegada més complexos. El creixent avanç de les noves tecnologies aplicades en el mercat del retail, permet que la venda de productes s'efectue sense el contacte personal entre venedor i comprador, sent el registre i pagament efectuats en equips electrònics d'autoservici cridats de self-checkout. La utilització a gran escala d'estos equips obliga el consumidor a participar en el procés d'atenció realitzant tots els passos de la compra, des de pesar els productes, registrar-los i efectuar el pagament. No obstant això, esta participació no sempre satisfà l'usuari, podent causar experiències negatives relacionades amb falles d'interacció. Una vegada que la introducció de les tecnologies autoservicis depén de la capacitat de l'usuari per a comprendre el sistema i adoptar l'ús del servici, és important identificar els requisits de disseny que permeten una bona interacció. No obstant això, els estudis sobre el disseny de la interacció dels equips electrònics, especialment dels self- checkouts, són escassos en l'àrea del disseny, així com els estudis que se centren en l'adopció del sistema pels usuaris. El present estudi pretén verificar quina és la necessitat de millorar la interacció a través de la identificació d'atributs i factors situacionals d'interactivitat, així com l'impacte en la satisfacció i intenció de l'usuari de tornar a usar el sistema. Les dades sobre l'avaluació realitzada pels usuaris del sistema d'autopagament, es van arreplegar a Portugal a través d'un qüestionari realitzat en persona. L'estudi analitza el grau de satisfacció quant a la qualitat i interacció amb el sistema, el grau de motivació per a la seua adopció, així com el perfil dels usuaris i la tendència a adoptar en el futur noves tecnologies de registre i pagament de productes basats en una mostra de 400 consumidors. L'anàlisi de les dades de la mostra revela que la majoria dels usuaris tenen formació escolar mitja / alta i utilitzen amb molta regularitat noves tecnologies. A més, presenten un fàcil aprenentatge i un domini elevat del sistema. El motiu per a utilitzar el self-checkout es deu principalment a les cues d'espera en les caixes amb operador i al xicotet volum de productes. En general, l'anàlisi revela un alt grau de satisfacció amb el servici i amb la qualitat, no obstant això, en termes comparatius, les caixes d'autoservici no es consideren millors que les caixes tradicionals. L'avaluació de la interacció amb el self-checkout va ser classificada segons vint-i-sis atributs del sistema. L'anàlisi identifica quatre grups amb característiques semblants, de les quals dos presenten una avaluació baixa. L'anul·lació d'articles registrats, el registre d'articles sense codi de barres, el registre manual, l'àrea d'ensacat, els missatges d'error, el sensor de pes i la sol·licitud de factura són set atributs crítics del sistema. Es va verificar que el grau de concordança sobre la introducció en el self-checkout recau sobre les tecnologies RFID (identificació per radiofreqüència). Finalment, s'assenyalen algunes bones pràctiques d'aproximació a l'arreplega d'informació per a projecte, sobretot a les dades que es referixen a l'usuari - com observar, com investigar i quines proposades pràctiques disposar en el període proyectual. Els resultats indiquen que l'anàlisi de la interacció orientada al servici self- checkout pot ser determinant per a la satisfacció de l'experiència de l'usuari. Les implicacions derivades de les constatacions empíriques es discutixen junt amb orientacions per a futures investigacions.
[EN] Technological development has changed the way users relate to products from being passive recipients of functions to interacting with increasingly complex systems. The increasing advance of the new technologies applied in the retail market allows the sale of products to be made without the personal contact between seller and buyer, and the registration and payment are made in self-service electronic equipment called self-checkout. The large-scale use of these types of equipment obliges the consumer to participate in the service process by performing all the steps of the purchase, from weighing the products, registering them and making the payment. However, this participation does not always satisfy the user, and may cause negative experiences related to interaction failures. Since the introduction of self-service technologies depends on the user's ability to understand the system and adopt the use of the service, it is important to identify the design requirements that allow for good interaction. However, studies on the design of interaction of electronic equipment, namely self-checkouts, are scarce in the area of Design, as well as studies that focus on users' adoption of the system. The present study aims to verify the need to improve interaction through the identification of attributes and situational factors of interactivity, as well as the impact on user satisfaction and intention to reuse the system. The data related to the evaluation made by the users of the self-checkout system were collected in Portugal through a questionnaire carried out in person. The study examines the degree of satisfaction with the quality and interaction with the system, the degree of motivation for its adoption, as well as the profile of users and the tendency to adopt new technologies for registration and payment of products based on a sample of 400 consumers. Analysis of the sample data shows that most users have medium to high school education and regularly use new technologies. In addition, they present easy learning and a good understanding of the system. The reason for using self-checkout is mainly due to not having to wait in queues at the manned checkout and the small quantity of products. In general, the analysis reveals a high degree of satisfaction with the service and quality, however, in comparison, self-checkouts are not considered better than traditional manned checkouts. The evaluation of the interaction with the self-checkout was classified according to twenty-six attributes of the system. The analysis identifies four groups with similar characteristics, two of which present low scores. Withdrawal of registered items, registration of articles without bar code, manual registration, bagging area, error messages, weight sensor and invoice request are seven critical attributes of the system. It was also verified that the degree of agreement on the introduction in the self-checkout relies on RFID (radio frequency identification) technologies. Finally, some good practices for approaching the collection of information for the project are pointed out, especially the data that concerns the user - how to observe, how to inquire and what practical proposals to have in the design period. The results indicate that the analysis of the interaction oriented towards the self-checkout service can be a determining factor in user experience satisfaction. The implications of empirical findings are discussed together with guidelines for future research.

Full textEvery individual has benefitted from some kind of experience (professional or personal).The question is what does one draw from experience ? The Accreditation of previous learning proposes an approach that evaluates this previous experience using a set of historic, legal and philosophical markers. Within the Accreditation of previous learning framework, it is possible to assess the validity and the legitimacy of an action plan concerning professional practices. My dissertation applies this approach to the social and medical-social sector. The Accreditation of previous learning could be considered as a relatively recent training system which could eventually influence other types of training courses and the actors involved in them.The main objective of this qualitative and empirical study is to highlight the effects of the Accreditation of previous learning plan on the candidates as well as on other actors. I analysed the data recorded in the logbook during in situ observation, and the result of twenty semi-directive interviews. The research results show the necessity of designing social and medical-social work, from the perspective of a process of inevitable change, taking place in the candidate’s for the Accreditation of previous learning, and of modifying the way social and medical-social institutions work as well as the way actors participate in them
Consideramos que todo individuo tiene una experiencia que aplicar. Pero ¿ cómo lo hace ? El Procedimiento de evaluación y acreditación de las competencias profesionales (P.E.A.C) implica dar una vuelta por un enfoque reflexivo de la experiencia. Sin embargo, ¿ no deberíamos interrogarnos sobre el interés que pueda tener un ser humano en embarcarse en un proceso tan largo, tan riguroso y que genera tantos cambios? Servirnos de un conjunto de indicaciones históricas, jurídicas y filosóficas y de investigaciones científicas (en Ciencias de la Educación, en Sociología), nos apareció fundamental para poder cercar mejor la validez y la legitimidad de un dispositivo como el del P.E.A.C en las prácticas profesionales, en este caso en el sector social y médico social.El objetivo principal de este estudio cualitativo y empírico es poner de relieve los efectos transformadores del dispositivo del P.E.A.C tanto sobre los candidatos como sobre otros actores. De este modo, hemos analizando los datos del diario de abordo en el transcurso de la observación in situ, y los obtenidos de las veinte entrevistas a subdirectivos. Los resultados de esta investigación muestran la necesidad de concebir el trabajo social y médico social a través de un proceso de cambio ineluctable que se produce en el candidato del P.E.A.C, modificando no solamente el funcionamiento institucional, sino el posicionamiento de otros actores que intervienen

This study explores the process how two self-injured persons perceiving themselves in relationships. The research starts with the researcher’s personal loss experience and her self-perception. This study aims at how these persons deal with self-mutilation as well as their struggle with life events and problems. The purpose of the study is to realize the interaction between the self and the change of the relations in the self-injurious’ lives and to reconstruct their sense of being in the relations. The author applies narrative approach as instrument to reveal the veil of self-mutilation. Holistic-content analysis is used on collected data while other materials such as photos, diaries, and other documents are also utilized as supplement to understand the narrators and their experiences. The findings are as following: Self-injurious behavior is from the self-value, and the change of the viewpoint about themselves is closely related to the important or intimate relations. The break, loss, alienation or conflict in the relations may have impact on perceptions of themselves. In Ching’s story (one of the narrative subject), she looks back on the effect of the violent treatment and the passaway of her relative, and has tried to review the complicated relation with her mother. In Gong’s story (the other narrative subject), depending on the interaction with her mate, she finds the need and want of mother’s love, and further realizes that she hinds part of herself because of the fear of the identity of lesbian being explored and the isolation from her family. The researcher also expresses her involvement and retrospection at the end of the thesis. According to the interrelationship between two narrative subjects, the researcher re-observed the subject matter of individual relation, re-realizes the predicament of the life, and receives the unknown test.

A total of 300 respondents were purposively chosen from 5 high schools in Maseru. The subjects completed a self adopted instrument based on reviewed literature and Adolescence Stress Questionnaire (ASQ). The results showed that most adolescents in the sample experienced stress. There was no significant difference in the experience of stress between female and male adolescents. The adolescents in the higher grade reported more stress than those in the lower grade. Home problems were perceived as the most stressful factors while academic and other factors were seen as lesser concerns. Availability of money was considered as the least important source of stress. Most adolescents preferred to be alone when they were under stress and a few used drugs. Implications of the findings for adolescents, parents, teachers and educational psychologists are discussed.

This study records the story of the researcher himself by using the self-narrative approach. As an only son, the researcher was in charge of handling household duties for his family after his military career; unfortunately he experienced two tragedies where his father and mother passed away due to cancer and dementia in a continuous time period. The researcher wrote this research based from regular daily notes, rearrangement of texts and writings, recollection of conversations and reflection on what he saw. The content of this research discussed the burden and pressure on the researcher during the process of taking care of his sick parents and household affairs independently. It also depicts how a death in the family brings overwhelming lonesome to a singleton, who grows up without any siblings. Despite the escalated number of singleton, due to low birth rate, most relative studies are concentrated on problems before a singleton reaches the age of thirty. There are a few studies that points out the problems that a singleton may face in the future. However, none of them reveal concrete discussion about the problems a middle-aged singleton may face. Thus, the purpose of this study is to fulfill the research gap and represent the reflection of a middle-aged singleton.

Full textHá frequentemente uma discrepância entre os dados clínicos, incluindo análises laboratoriais, e a experiência de se estar doente. O objetivo deste trabalho foi procurar indicadores-chave de desempenho de doença para além dos dados numéricos habituais. Como modelo de investigação, utilizamos a Doença Renal Crónica (DRC). Esses indicadores devem traduzir a experiência de viver com a doença e serem sensíveis às decisões médicas, para que possam ser alvo de intervenção. No capítulo 2, é feita uma contextualização da DRC, apresentando-se uma extensa lista dos indicadores que actualmente orientam as decisões dos médicos. No capítulo 3, faz-se uma abordagem geral das doenças crónicas, destacando modelos de gestão da doença crónica. Alguns indicadores actualmente usados também são referidos. O trabalho experimental é apresentado no capítulo 4. A nossa hipótese baseou-se num modelo conceptual que postulava que uma determinada medida de resultados autorelatados pelos doentes (PROM: Patient Reported Outcome Measures) seria adequada para uso diário em contexto clínico se tivesse uma correlação estatisticamente significativa entre os preditores (variáveis demográficas, índices de comorbilidade, estimativas de Taxa de Filtração Glomerular - TFGe - e eventos adversos do ano anterior) e os resultados (morte, diálise, hospitalizações e idas ao serviço de urgência), servindo assim como indicador de bem-estar. Realizámos um estudo observacional, tendo recrutado 60 doentes renais crónicos que responderam a vários questionários de PROM: “Short Physical Performance Battery” (SPPB), “World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule” (WHODAS), “Satisfaction With Life Scale” (SWLS) e “Kidney Disease Quality of Life” (KDQoL). O período de acompanhamento foi de 24 meses. Finalmente, estudámos a relevância dos resultados para os doentes. Para isso, foi-lhes pedido que classificassem seis desfechos, de acordo com o que acham que deveria ser a prioridade do seu médico (“evitar a morte”, “evitar a diálise”, “evitar o agravamento dos exames laboratoriais”, “evitar a deterioração do seu estado geral”, “evitar internamentos hospitalares” e “evitar idas ao serviço de urgência”). Os resultados permitiram concluir que: 1) O SPPB previu morte, diálise e hospitalizações. 2) O WHODAS previu morte e diálise. 3) O domínio Função Física do KDQoL previu morte e hospitalizações. 4) O domínio Saúde Mental do KDQoL previu morte. 5) O domínio Energia/vitalidade do KDQoL previu hospitalizações. 6) O domínio físico do KDQoL previu diálise. 7) Domínio de Saúde Mental do KDQoL previu hospitalizações e idas ao serviço de urgência. 8) Os domínios Dor, Função Social e Saúde Geral do KDQoL, bem como o SWLS não foram úteis na previsão de nenhum dos resultados propostos. 9) A fórmula de Cockcroft-Gault (CG) para calcular a TFGe é a única que previu a morte. 10) Todas as fórmulas de cálculo da TFGe previram o início da diálise. 11) Apenas a fórmula de CG pôde prever a pontuação de algumas escalas do PROM: SPPB, domínio da Função Física do KDQoL e WHODAS. 12) Ambas as escalas de comorbilidade de Charlson (de 1987 e 2011) são úteis para a predição dos resultados estudados: a primeira prevê mortes e internamentos hospitalares, enquanto a segunda prediz morte, diálise, hospitalizações e idas ao serviço de urgência. 13) A principal prioridade dos doentes é que a principal preocupação do seu médico seja “evitar a morte”, enquanto as opções “evitar diálise” e “evitar o agravamento dos exames laboratoriais” vêm a seguir, empatadas. 14) Os doentes classificaram as opções “evitar hospitalização” e “evitar episódios de urgência” nos últimos lugares, depois de todas as demais. Finalmente, 15) O modelo conceptual proposto permitiu identificar oito possibilidades diferentes de relação entre preditores, PROM e resultados. Quatro deles mostraram ter utilidade clínica. São necessários estudos longitudinais com PROM para reforçar o seu papel no consultório e na enfermaria, e também na gestão da doença.

Full textEmbora alguns estudos tenham comprovado os benefícios da compaixão no bem-estar, as pessoas podem comportar-se prossocialmente por diferentes motivos, nem todos genuinamente compassivos. A compaixão submissa - cuidar para evitar rejeição - tem sido relacionada com a vergonha, comportamentos submissos e ansiedade. Além disso, há evidência de que experiencias precoces de vergonha que revelam características traumáticas estão associadas com a vergonha e ansiedade social. O autocriticismo também tem sido relacionado com experiencias precoces de vergonha, vergonha e ansiedade social. Uma vez que não existiam estudos que relacionassem todas estas variáveis esse foi o objectivo do presente estudo, nomeadamente, investigar se o impacto traumático de experiencias precoces de vergonha estaria associado à compaixão submissa, e se a vergonha, autocriticismo e ansiedade social mediariam esta relação. O estudo transversal incluiu duas populações (estudantes e adultos) mas, uma vez que se verificaram diferenças significativas entre elas decidimos introduzir a população como variável de controlo e utilizar a amostra total (N = 515: M (idade) = 27.36; SD = 11.69). Correlações parciais revelaram associações positivas, moderadas e significativas entre todas as variáveis. Quatro modelos de mediação simples estimados com o PROCESS revelaram que o impacto traumático de experiências precoces está directamente e indirectamente associado, através da vergonha, do autocriticismo e da ansiedade social, com a compaixão submissa. Em conclusão, o impacto traumático de experiências precoces de vergonha, a vergonha, o autocriticismo e, particularmente, a ansiedade social aparentam estar no núcleo da compaixão submissa. Outros resultados são discutidos, tal como as contribuições do presente estudo e possíveis implicações clínicas.
While several studies have provided evidence of the positive effects of compassion on well-being, people can behave in prosocial ways for different reasons, not all genuinely compassionate. Submissive compassion - being caring in order to avoid rejection- has been linked to shame, submissiveness and anxiety. Furthermore, there is increasing evidence that early shame experiences revealing trauma characteristics are linked to shame and social anxiety. Self-criticism has also been linked to early shame experiences, shame and social anxiety. Since there were no prior studies addressing all these variables together, this was the aim of the present study, particularly to investigate whether the traumatic impact of early shame experiences was associated with submissive compassion and if shame, self-criticism and social anxiety mediated this relationship. The cross-sectional study included two populations (student and adult samples) but, since there were significant differences we decided to introduce population as a control variable in the subsequent models and thus, only the total sample was used (N = 515: M (age) = 27.36; SD = 11.69). Partial correlations revealed positive, moderate and significant associations between all variables. Four simple mediation models were estimated using PROCESS revealing that the traumatic impact of early shame experiences is directly and indirectly associated, through shame, self-criticism and social anxiety, to submissive compassion. In conclusion, the traumatic impact of early shame experiences, shame, self-criticism, and particularly social anxiety, seem to be at the core of submissive compassion. Other results are discussed, as well as contributions of the present study and possible clinical implications.

Full textThe Covid-19 pandemic seems to be causing symptoms of psychological distress and anincrease of mental health problems all over the world. Teachers have been particularly affectedby this pandemic, for they had to adapt to several obstacles of distance learning settings. Thiscross-sectional study aimed to investigate the traumatic impact of the pandemic on teachers’personal and professional life, and on psychological distress (i.e., symptoms of anxiety,depression and burnout). We expected experiential avoidance and self-criticism to mediate therelationship between the traumatic impact of the pandemic and burnout, depression and anxiety,as both hypothesized mediating variables may constitute vulnerability factors topsychopathology. Therefore, three double mediation models were estimated. Portugueseteachers in public schools, from elementary to high school, (N = 355; mean age 52.67 [SD =6.572]) completed an online self-report questionnaire measuring the impact of the pandemic onpersonal and professional life, the traumatic impact of the pandemic, burnout, depression,anxiety, experiential avoidance and self-criticism. Results found that teachers reported thepandemic as having a negative impact on their personal and professional lives. Regarding ourproposed models, self-criticism and experiential avoidance explained part of the impact of thetraumatic impact of the pandemic on burnout and anxiety, but only self-criticism was found tobe a significant mediator of this impact on depression. Considering these results, Compassionand Acceptance based approaches are suggested as possible interventions to prevent distressand increase well-being, by targeting self-criticism and promoting acceptance.
A pandemia Covid-19 parece estar a causar sintomas de sofrimento psicológico e um aumentode problemas relacionados com a saúde mental. Os professores têm sido particularmenteafetados pela pandemia, na medida em que esta levou à necessidade de adaptação perantevários obstáculos relacionados com as contingências do novo ensino à distância. Este estudotransversal pretendeu compreender o impacto traumático da pandemia na vida pessoal eprofissional dos professores e no sofrimento psicológico (e.g. sintomas de ansiedade,depressão e burnout). Previa-se que o evitamento experiencial e o autocriticismo mediassema relação entre o impacto traumático da pandemia e burnout, depressão e ansiedade, porambas variáveis potencialmente mediadoras poderem constituir fatores de vulnerabilidadepara o desenvolvimento de psicopatologia. Deste modo, foram testados três modelos de duplamediação. Professores Portugueses a lecionar em escolas públicas, do ensino primário aoensino secundário (N = 355; Midade = 52.67 [SD = 6.572]) responderam em formato online ainstrumentos de auto-resposta que visavam avaliar o impacto da pandemia na vida pessoal eprofissional, o impacto traumático da pandemia, burnout, depressão, ansiedade, evitamentoexperiencial e autocriticismo. Os resultados demonstram que os professores reportaram umimpacto predominantemente negativo na sua vida pessoal e profissional devido à pandemia.Relativamente aos modelos propostos, o autocriticismo e o evitamento experiencialexplicaram parte da relação do impacto traumático da pandemia no burnout e na ansiedade,mas apenas o autocriticismo constituiu um mediador do impacto traumático na depressão.Tendo em conta estes resultados, abordagens baseadas na Compaixão e Aceitação sãosugeridas como possíveis intervenções de modo a prevenir sofrimento e aumentar o bem-estarpsicológico, ao trabalhar o autocriticismo e a promoção de aceitação.

Full textAté à data, vários estudos demonstraram uma associação positiva entre o impacto traumático da pandemia COVID-19 e a psicopatologia. Deste modo, torna-se crucial compreender que fatores podem estar a mediar este efeito. O auto-criticismo e o evitamento experiencial estão associados a uma menor adaptabilidade à pandemia e a níveis mais elevados de psicopatologia, nomeadamente os níveis de burnout em populações de estudantes e professores e de ansiedade aos testes nos alunos. No entanto, do nosso conhecimento, estas variáveis não foram ainda investigadas em conjunto em estudos anteriores. Assim sendo, o presente estudo teve como objetivo examinar o efeito mediador do auto-criticismo e do evitamento experiencial na relação entre o impacto traumático da pandemia COVID-19 e os níveis de burnout e ansiedade aos testes em estudantes universitários, e os níveis de burnout nos professores universitários. Deste modo, este estudo incluiu duas amostras, estudantes universitários (N = 484) e professores universitários (N = 70). Os participantes foram recrutados em várias universidades portuguesas e preencheram medidas de auto-resposta relacionadas com o impacto traumático da pandemia COVID-19, auto-criticismo, evitamento experiencial e burnout e, na amostra de alunos universitários, a ansiedade aos testes foi também avaliada. Os resultados mostraram que o impacto traumático da pandemia COVID-19 estava direta e indiretamente, através do auto-criticismo e evitamento experiencial, associado de forma positiva aos níveis de burnout e ansiedade aos testes nos alunos universitários e aos níveis de burnout nos professores universitários. Em suma, um maior impacto traumático da pandemia COVID-19, auto-criticismo e evitamento experiencial parecem estar associados a níveis mais elevados de burnout e ansiedade aos testes em alunos universitários, e a níveis mais elevados de burnout em professores universitários. Estes resultados sugerem a necessidade de estudos futuros que permitam compreender o impacto nocivo da pandemia COVID-19 na saúde mental dos estudantes e professores universitários, e a relevância de desenvolver intervenções psicológicas baseadas em intervenções focadas na compaixão e na Terapia da Aceitação e Compromisso (ACT) com o objetivo de minimizar as consequências da pandemia na saúde mental e bem-estar dos estudantes e professores universitários.
Several studies have demonstrated the positive association between the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and psychopathology. Thus, it is crucial to explore factors that could mediate this effect. Self-criticism and experiential avoidance have been linked with a lower adaptability to the pandemic and higher psychopathology levels, namely burnout in student and teacher populations and test anxiety in students. However, to our knowledge, no prior studies have addressed all these variables together. Thus, the present study aimed to examine the mediating role of self-criticism and experiential avoidance on the relationship between the traumatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and burnout and test anxiety levels in university students, and burnout levels in university professors. This cross-sectional study included two samples: university students (N = 484) and professors (N = 70). Participants were recruited from various universities across Portugal and completed self-report measures regarding the traumatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, self-criticism, experiential avoidance, and burnout, and in the university students’ sample alone, test anxiety was also assessed. Results showed that the traumatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was directly and indirectly, through self-criticism and experiential avoidance, associated with burnout and test anxiety levels in university students and with burnout levels in university professors. In conclusion, a higher traumatic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, self-criticism and experiential avoidance seem to be associated with higher levels of burnout and test anxiety in university students and higher burnout levels in university professors. These results suggest the need for further studies to better understand the damaging impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on university students and professors’ mental health and the relevance of developing psychological interventions based upon compassion focused interventions and the Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to minimise the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on university students’ and professors’ mental health and well-being.

Paralelamente tem sido apontado que a relação entre experiências precoces e competências de autocompaixão com a sintomatologia depressiva poderá ser mediada por diferentes mecanismos. Numa amostra de 389 sujeitos da população geral, com idades compreendidas entre os 18-50 anos, o presente estudo testou um modelo integrador no qual foi hipotetizado que a proximidade e conexão aos outros e o evitamento experiencial funcionam como mecanismos mediadores nestas relações. A análise path confirmou a adequabilidade do modelo, que explica 34% da variância da sintomatologia depressiva. Os resultados revelaram a associação significativa entre experiências precoces afiliativas positivas e competências autocompassivas e menores níveis de sintomatologia depressiva, sendo essas relações totalmente mediada por uma maior proximidade ao outro e por menor tendência a endossar estratégias de evitamento experiencial.Este estudo constitui um importante contributo para a clarificação do impacto das vivências afiliativas precoces e das competências autocompassivas na saúde mental. Os dados sugerem que as intervenções para a promoção da saúde mental se devem focar no desenvolvimento de competências de conexão ao outro e de aceitação, enquanto mecanismos subjacentes à mudança.
The literature has consistently shown that early positive emotional experiences and self-compassionate competences assume a central role in emotion regulation and mental health. Further, it has been pointed that the relationship of early experiences and self-compassion abilities with depressive symptomatology may be mediated by several different mechanisms. Using a sample of 389 participants from the general population, aged between 18 and 50 years old, the present study explored an integrative model hypothesizing that social closeness and experiential avoidance act as mediators of the aforementioned relationships. A path analysis confirmed the adequacy of the model, which was shown to explain 34% of the variance of depression symptoms. Results further revealed the significant association of early positive affiliative experiences and self-compassionate competences with lower levels of depression symptoms, and that these relationships are mediated by higher closeness to others and a lower tendency to engage in experiential avoidance strategies. Overall, this study may constitute a relevant contribution to the clarification of the impact of early affiliative experiences and self-compassionate abilities in one’s mental health. Present data suggest that interventions to promote mental health should focus on the development of social closeness and acceptance competences, as mechanisms underlying the process of change.

Full textEmbora diversos estudos tenham abordado as memórias do impacto negativo das experiências precoces de vergonha, vergonha externa e autocriticismo na ansiedade social, nenhum estudou o crescimento pós traumático como moderador na relação entre as memórias do impacto traumático das experiencias precoces de vergonha e ansiedade social, nem todas estas variáveis em conjunto, particularmente os efeitos mediadores e moderadores. Deste modo, o presente estudo pretendeu avaliar as memórias do impacto negativo das experiências de vergonha precoces na explicação da AS, explorando o papel mediador da vergonha externa e autocriticismo nesta relação. O estudo transversal dispôs de duas amostras comunitárias: estudantes universitários (N= 357; M idade = 20.54; DP = 1.62) e adultos da população portuguesa (N = 180; M idade = M = 42,83; DP = 9.80). Em ambas as amostras, impacto traumático das experiencias precoces de vergonha, vergonha externa e autocriticismo são preditores significativos da ansiedade social, sendo que a vergonha externa e o autocriticismo funcionam ainda como mediadores da relação entre memórias do impacto traumático das experiencias precoces de vergonha e ansiedade social. Nesta relação o crescimento pós traumático assumiu-se como um moderador significativo para ambas as amostras, sendo que as correlações desta variável com impacto traumático das experiencias precoces, ansiedade social, vergonha externa e autocriticismo são positivas e significativas. Em termos clínicos, estes resultados salientam a importância de trabalhar não só a vergonha externa e autocriticismo na ansiedade social mas também as memórias das experiencias de vergonha na infância ou adolescência e o crescimento pós-traumático que pode ocorrer como resultado dos acontecimentos adversos.
Although multiple studies have approached the memories of negative impact of early shame experiences, external shame and self-criticism in social anxiety, none has studied neither the post traumatic growth as a moderator in the relationship between the memories of traumatic impact regarding early experiences of shame and social anxiety, nor all of the variables as a whole, particularly the mediating and moderating effects. Therefore, the present study intended to evaluate the memories of the negative impact of early shame experiences in the explanation of social anxiety, exploring the mediating role of external shame and self-criticism in this relationship. The cross-sectional study has laid out two communal samples: university students (N = 357; Mage = 20.54; SD = 1.62) and adults in the Portuguese population (N = 180; Mage = 42.83; SD = 9.80). In both samples, the traumatic impact of early shame experiences, external shame and self-criticism are all meaningful predictors of social anxiety, with external shame and self-criticism working as mediators of the relationship between memories of traumatic impact regarding early shame experiences and social anxiety. In this relationship, the posttraumatic growth has named itself a meaningful moderator to both samples, with the correlations of this variable with traumatic impact of early experiences, social anxiety, external shame and self-criticism being positive and meaningful. In clinical terms these results highlight the importance of working not only the external shame and self-criticism in social anxiety, but also the memories of experiences of childhood and teenage shame and the posttraumatic growth that can occur as a result of adverse events.

Full textDe acordo com as estimativas da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS, 2009), o suicídio constitui uma das principais causas de morte entre os indivíduos dos 15 aos 24 anos de idade. O comportamento suicidário não letal constitui o principal fator de risco para o suicídio (Corcoran et al., 2004; Nimeus et al., 2002; Reinherz et al., 2006; Sidley et al., 1999; Brown, Beck, et al., 2000). A prevalência tanto da ideação suicida como da tentativa de suicídio têm vindo a aumentar consideravelmente entre os adolescentes, nos últimos anos (Rey et al., 1998). Não são conhecidos estudos sobre os comportamentos suicidários em Cabo Verde. O objetivo principal da presente dissertação foi analisar os comportamentos suicidários (ideação e para-suicídio) em adolescentes cabo-verdianos. Especificamente, pretendeu-se avaliar a prevalência de ideação suicida e de para-suicídio nessa população, e analisar os seus correlatos psicológicos e demográficos. Isto é, avaliar a contribuição das variáveis sintomatologia depressiva, desesperança, ansiedade, perceção de suporte social, autocompaixão, autocriticismo, autotranquilização, comparação social, vergonha externa, derrota, encurralamento, comportamentos de submissão, experiências de vida precoces, estilos parentais na infância, qualidade dos relacionamentos interpessoais, regulação emocional e variáveis sociodemográficos, na predição da ideação suicida. E a contribuição das variáveis de rank social na predição do para-suicídio nessa população. Os estudos, de desenho transversal, foram realizados em amostras não clínicas e clínica, num total de 2017 adolescentes cabo-verdianos de ambos os géneros, dos 14 aos 22 anos de idade. Os resultados obtidos mostraram uma prevalência tanto de ideação suicida como de para-suicídio entre os adolescentes estudados similares às de diversos países onde esses comportamentos já são considerados problemas de saúde pública. Os resultados dos estudos sublinham ainda a importância das variáveis do rank social (especialmente a derrota, o encurralamento externo e o encurralamento interno), da sintomatologia depressiva e da desesperança, na predição da ideação suicida. Ademais, realçam a função protetora da perceção do suporte social da família na génese da ideação suicida. Por outro lado, os resultados evidenciaram a importância e impacto das experiências de vida precoces de ameaça, submissão e desvalorização na ideação suicida, e o papel mediador das dificuldades de regulação emocional na relação entre as experiências de vida precoces e a ideação suicida. Na amostra clínica os resultados mostraram a importância das variáveis do rank, especialmente a derrota, e de níveis elevados de sintomatologia depressiva na predição do para-suicídio. Em síntese, os resultados desta dissertação sublinharam a importância das variáveis do rank na predição da ideação suicida e do para-suicídio, da perceção do suporte social enquanto fator protetor da predição da ideação suicida, e da regulação emocional enquanto mediador da relação entre as experiências de vida precoces e a ideação suicida. Esses resultados parecem importantes para esforços de prevenção que procurem reduzir os comportamentos suicidários e para a promoção da investigação nas áreas da saúde pública e saúde mental em Cabo Verde.
According to World Health Organization (WHO, 2009) estimates, suicide is one of the leading causes of death among individuals from 15 to 24 years old. Nonlethal suicidal behaviour is are the main risk factor for suicide (Corcoran et al., 2004; Nimeus et al., 2002; Reinherz et al., 2006; Sidley et al., 1999; Brown, Beck, et al., 2000). The prevalence for both suicidal ideation and suicide attempt has been substantially rising among adolescents in the last years (Rey et al., 1998). There are no studies about suicidal behaviors in Cape Verde. The main aim of the current dissertation is to analyze suicidal behaviours (ideation and parasuicide) in Cape Verdean adolescents. Specifically, we aim at assessing the prevalence of suicidal ideation and parasuicide in such population, and at examining their psychological and demographical correlates. That is, to assess the contribution of the variables depressive symptomatology, hopelessness, anxiety, social support, selfcompassion, self-criticism, self-reassurance, social comparison, external shame, defeat, entrapment, submissive behaviours, early life experiences, parental styles in childhood, quality of interpersonal relationships, emotion regulation, gender, age, years of education, marital status and occupation, in the prediction of suicidal ideation. And the contribution of the ranking variables in predicting suicide attempts in this population. The studies, with a cross-sectional design, were conducted in nonclinical and clinical samples, comprising a total of 2017 Cape Verdean adolescents of both genders, with ages ranging from 14 to 22 years old. The results showed a not negligible prevalence of both suicidal ideation and parasuicide among the studied adolescents. They highlight the importance of social ranking variables (especially external shame, internal and external entrapment, and submissive behaviours), of depressive symptomatology and of hopelessness, in the prediction of suicidal ideation. Moreover, they emphasize the protective function of family social support in the onset of suicidal ideation. On the other hand, the results revealed the importance and the impact that early life experiences of threat, submissiveness and devaluation have on suicidal ideation, and the mediational role that difficulties in emotion regulation play in such association. In the clinical sample the results showed the importance of ranking variables, especially defeat, and of increased levels of depressive symptomatology, in predicting suicide attempt. To sum up, the results of this dissertation underline the importance of ranking variables in predicting suicidal ideation and parasuicide, of the perception of social support as a protective factor in the prediction of suicidal ideation, and of emotion regulation as a mediator on the relationship between early life experiences and suicidal ideation. These results are important to promote prevention efforts aimed at reducing suicidal behaviours, and to promote research and prevention efforts in the field of mental health in Cape Verde.
