Full textResearch results do not always reach out in care to patients and clinically active personnel. This can lead to the result that the scientific basis, as health care, according to Swedish law must rest upon are not offered. The reason that scientifically knowledge does not reach out can be such a lack of knowledge about how research is disseminated and how the results can be translated into its own practice. An extensive field of research in nursing relates conversation, communication and reflection related to the relationship between health professionals and patients. Reflection should be seen as a central phenomenon in health care to gain new understanding and lead to develop and change. Reflection in the context of anaction research project should lead to changes in relation to health professionals understanding and attitudes to the patient. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether changes occur in the staff´s view of oneself and the patient in an action research basedproject. Focus of the development project was the assessment of patients' pain. The study is qualitative. Data have been collected during focusgroup, transcribed and analyzed based on a hermeneutic method of analysis. Three main themes emerged from the analysis:the patient becomes a person, professional identity becomes clearer, team spirit is strengthened. Meanings of these three themes interpreted in relation to theories of personcentered care and transition. Participatory action research can be a way to increase the use of research and translate new knowledge to its own practice. In the study, participants expressed that their work resulted in a changed work with pain and pain assessment.

Neste trabalho, analisamos aspectos formativos do trabalho com uma questão sociocientífica (QSC) por um Pequeno Grupo de Pesquisa na interface universidade-escola. Trata-se de uma abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa que, assentada na epistemologia da Teoria Crítica da Sociedade, reflete a relação entre sujeito e objeto na construção do conhecimento e a inserção do pesquisador no contexto de pesquisa. A constituição dos dados se centrou nas gravações das reuniões do PGP durante o ano de 2013, período no qual o grupo elaborou uma sequência didática interdisciplinar sobre uma questão sociocientífica (QSC) – sobre “Padrão de Beleza, Consumismo e Saúde” – que foi elegida, discutida e construída a partir de suas demandas locais; iniciativa esta que teve como um de seus aspectos motivadores a expectativa de que o trabalho coletivo interdisciplinar contribuísse com a busca de melhores índices da escola em matemática perante as avaliações em larga escala (ALE). Diários de bordo e materiais elaborados pelos professores foram resgatados e contextualizados a partir do olhar do pesquisador, que era também participante do PGP. A partir de conceitos críticos de Theodor Adorno e Walter Benjamin, propomos uma metodologia de análise composta de três momentos: i) a descrição e contextualização dos episódios vivenciados pelo grupo naquele ano, por meio de uma rememoração do pesquisador; ii) a construção de imagens dialéticas na forma de ensaio; e iii) a elaboração de sínteses que representassem o potencial formativo das questões sociocientíficas para a formação dos professores. Como principais apontamentos, indicamos: uma concepção dialética imanente ao conceito de PGP, que se coloca como um espaço ampliador de autonomia docente ao mesmo tempo em que acaba refletindo – consciente ou inconscientemente – imposições sistêmicas; a importância de se manter presente a história de constituição do grupo em prol da continuidade de um trabalho coletivo e comunicativo; a defesa de que os projetos de formação de professores reconheçam o ciclo fechado da semiformação do sistema educacional, e construam compreensões de formação pela negativa (de resistência); a constante relação com a estrutura de choque da realidade escolar, que, intermitentemente, afeta o trabalho docente com imposições mais ou menos diretas na sua prática educativa; a defesa das QSC como subsídios para uma educação científica crítica, potencializando a compreensão dos fenômenos estudados e da própria natureza da ciência; e a potencialidade que o processo de construção de uma QSC oferece para enriquecer a experiência formativa do professor. Por fim, a partir de uma vivência intensa e direta com as condições e variáveis presentes no cotidiano escolar, elaboramos algumas orientações para a construção de QSC nas condições reais da escola básica atual.
In this work, we analyze formative aspects of the job with a socio-scientific question (QSC) by a Small Research Group at the university-school interface. It is a qualitative research approach that, based on the epistemology of the Critical Theory of Society, reflects the relation between subject and object in the construction of knowledge and the insertion of the researcher in the context of research. The compilation of data focused on the recordings of the PGP meetings during the year 2013, when the group developed an interdisciplinary didactic sequence (QSC) - on the "Standard of Beauty, Consumerism and Health" - that was chosen, discussed and built from their local demands; an initiative that had as one of its motivating aspects the expectation that the interdisciplinary collective work would contribute to the search for better indeces of the school in mathematics in the face of large scale evaluations (ALE). Logbooks and materials prepared by teachers were rescued and contextualized from the researcher's perspective, who was also a participant in PGP. From the critical concepts of Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin, we propose a methodology of analysis composed of three moments: i) the description and contextualization of the episodes experienced by the group that year, through a recollection of the researcher; ii) the construction of dialectical images in the test form; and iii) the elaboration of syntheses that represent the formative potential of socio-scientific questions for the formation of teachers. As the main notes, we indicate: a dialectical conception immanent to the concept of PGP, which is seen as an amplifying space for teacher autonomy while at the same time it ends up reflecting - consciously or unconsciously - systemic impositions; the importance of keeping in mind the history of the group's constitution for the continuity of a collective and communicative work; the defense of teacher training projects recognizing the closed cycle of the semiformation of the educational system and constructing understandings of training by the negative (resistance); the constant relation with the shock structure of school reality, which intermittently affects the teaching work with more or less direct impositions in its educational practice; the defense of the QSC as subsidies for a critical scientific education, enhancing the understanding of the studied phenomena and the very nature of science; and the potential that the process of building a QSC offers to enrich the formative experience of the teacher. Finally, from an intense and direct experience with the conditions and variables present in the daily school life, we developed some guidelines for the construction of QSC in the real conditions of the current basic school.

Full textThe relationship between alcohol consumption and alcohol-related violence has been firmly established in a wide array of studies concerning various forms of violence including intimate partner violence, domestic violence as well as sexual assault. One factor which has been highlighted as having a moderating effect on the relationship between alcohol consumption and alcohol-related aggression is the specific aggression-related alcohol expectancies concerning the effects of alcohol consumption on aggressive behaviour. In light of the prevalence of alcohol-related violence in South African communities it becomes important to examine the specific factors that moderate the relationship between alcohol consumption and alcohol-related aggression and violence. The aim of this study was to examine aggressionrelated alcohol expectancies as a moderating factor in the relationship between alcohol consumption and alcohol-related aggression and to examine the possible influence of exposure to community alcohol-related aggression in the formulation of aggression-related alcohol expectancies. The main objectives of this were to examine aggression-related alcohol expectancies as well as exposure to community alcohol-related aggression as domains for intervention to prevent alcohol-related violence.
