A complexidade da atenção às situações de crise: contribuições da desinstitucionalização para a invenção de práticas inovadoras em saúde mental

The implementation of local public policies in mental health in the context of the Sistema Unico de Saude, oriented by the psychiatric reform guidelines and based on the intersectoriality, has posed new challenges in mental health, such as the development of community-based networks and services aiming at replacing the asylum model, establishing rights and creating a new social environment to madness. The study has introduced and discussed that the critical knowledge built on practices of reality changes from Gorizia and Trieste's experiences expressing and proposing a different ethical, theoretical, and political viewpoint to understanding madness and its relationships in the social context. It allows therefore for a new way of thinking the creation of community-based services. Based on this referential and discussions on proposals of changing the way of thinking and acting in collective health, it was sought to build on and reflect on major subjects for the creation of the Nucleo de Atencao Psicossocial da Zona Noroeste given the mental health experience gained in the municipality of Santos for the period between 1989 and 1996, as an open, 24-hour, community-based service, and questioning the process' breakthroughs and contradictions. The present article introduces and discusses one of these subjects, i.e., crisis care, focusing on: psychiatric deinstitutionalization; activation of the actors involved and generation of new responses; the living together and the production of freedom in the daily care: and the hospitality 24-hour both as a resource and a right.
Does Imagery Work? Effects on Performance and Mental Skills

This paper provides a review of the literature on the relationship between imagery and sport performance as well as between imagery and the development of mental skills. First, the many anecdotal reports of imagery effectiveness are noted and a definition is provided focusing on the multidimensional nature of imagery. The evidence of the enhancing influence of imagery on sport performance is then examined by looking at the early studies (mental practice), case studies, preparatory imagery, imagery used as part of a mental training package, and the use of imagery by successful athletes. After discussing the limitations in research imagery relating to performance, the focus turned to the relationship of imagery and the development of mental skills (e.g., confidence, dealing with pressure, motivation). Factors affecting imagery effectiveness were highlighted including imagery perspective, type of task, positive versus negative imagery, and timing of imagery. The paper concluded with future directions for research including such areas as amount of time to image, imagery and children, imagery ability, and imagery and performance expertise.
Diagnostic Comorbidity in Psychotic Offenders and Their Criminal History: A Review of the Literature

There is growing evidence that there is a relationship between a psychotic disorder and violent behavior. Diagnostic comorbidity of a psychotic disorder with substance abuse, a personality disorder or psychopathy increases the likelihood of violence. The aim of this review is to examine the literature about the relationship between a psychotic disorder and violence, and about comorbidity of a psychotic disorder with substance abuse, a personality disorder and/or psychopathy. A search of www.PubMed. com and www.PsychInfo. com for the period 1990–2006 yielded 1942 articles. Ultimately, however, only 73 articles remained after eliminating those on irrelevant topics. Results showed that the roles of substance abuse, the presence of a personality disorder, or a high score on the revised psychopathy checklist are confirmed as important risk factors by many authors. This review revealed a high degree of agreement that possible comorbidity in schizophrenic offenders should be mentioned routinely in scientific research as it has an essential effect on the development of the offender's illness.
Patterns and Prevalence of Alcohol Use among University of Utopia Students in South Africa

Substance use – alcohol in particular, is common amongst secondary school learners in the area surrounding the researched university in South Africa. This phenomenon has also been observed as occurring in the university under study (University of Utopia). The researchers became aware of alcohol use amongst students especially after events such as the ‘Freshers’ ball’, Mr. and Mrs. University of Utopia functions, festivals and other events where first year students are welcomed at the university. We were thus motivated to undertake this study on the patterns and prevalence of alcohol use amongst second year university students. A descriptive study utilising a self-reporting questionnaire developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) was carried out. A total sample of 120 Education second year students (59 females and 61 males) was randomly selected. The questionnaire addressed the following issues: information on life experience, current and past use of substances like tobacco and alcohol as well as illicit drugs such as marijuana or cannabis (called dagga in South Africa), inhalants, heroin, amphetamines, sedatives, d-Lysergic Acid Diethylamide (LSD) and cocaine. The study found that the prevalence of the use of alcohol and other substances among university students was high and that males had a higher prevalence rate than females. The study concludes by indicating that recognising early symptoms of alcohol dependence may assist in the early identification and intervention for those at risk of heavier drinking in the future.

An epidemiological study of malocclusion and occlusal traits related to different stages of dental development

Introduction: Various types of malocclusions present one of the most common dental problems of today’s population. Planning the implementation of orthodontic therapy, especially preventive and interceptive measures is one of many activities of public sector health, and it requires information regarding the prevalence of malocclusion in different parts of our country. The aim: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of malocclusion of preschool and school children in the city of Sarajevo. Materials and methods: This study was comprised of 373 children out of which 200 preschool and school children were included in the final sample according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria for participation. 100 children were five-year-olds with complete deciduous dentition, and 100 children were 14-year-olds with permanent dentition. The examined variables in the study were: dental status andexistence of caries, overjet, depth of overbite, a presence of premature contacts, a presence of diastemas, crowding of teeth in the dentalarch (for 14-year-olds) and rotation of teeth in the dental arch (for 14-year-olds). Results: The prevalence of malocclusion was 58% in the group of preschool children and 83% in the group of school children. Conclusion: Results of this study demonstrate a need for the implementation of preventive and interceptive orthodontic methods inprimary health care, which would reduce the need for expensive and long term orthodontic therapy.
Fat bodies: developing geographical research agendas

Over the past decade geographers, especially social, cultural, critical and feminist geographers, have shown a keen interest in the mutually constitutive relationship between bodies and spaces. There is, however, one aspect of embodiment that has escaped geographers' attention, that is, fatness. In this paper I aim to develop some geographical research agendas that examine fatness as an important component of subjectivity. The paper begins by discussing some of the discourses surrounding fat and fatness, such as fat oppression, fat-phobia and fat acceptance. Secondly, there is an examination of some possible reasons why fat bodies have been for the most part absent from geographical research. Thirdly, the paper draws together the limited references that geographers have made to fat bodies, spaces and places. Finally, the paper offers suggestions for developing geographical research agendas that address fatness using a range of scales and theoretical perspectives.
The impact of feedback orientation and the effect of satisfaction with feedback on in-role job performance

Feedback orientation is an individual's overall receptivity to feedback, a concept that encompasses feedback utility, accountability with regard to participation in feedback, social awareness, and self-efficacy toward feedback. This study investigated the effects of these individual differences on in-role performance, with the mediation of satisfaction with feedback. Based on our survey of 225 matched supervisor-subordinate sets from nurses in public hospitals, analyses through structural equation modeling support a direct association of feedback utility, accountability, self-efficacy, and social awareness with performance as well as indirect relationships through satisfaction with feedback. On the basis of these findings, the framework advances some formal performance management practices to aid managers and human resource development (HRD) practitioners in the understanding and enactment of feedback orientation. Finally, the implications of the study for further research are discussed.
Child-Centered Learning and Music Programs

that support a link that music educators have long suspected-exposure to music at an early age benefits children's musical and cognitive development. While it is exciting to read research and news reports on the discovery of the "Mozart effect," early childhood music practitioners must not lose sight of a long-standing early childhood education philosophychild-centered learning. Child-centered learning has been advocated by such notable practitioners and thinkers as Rousseau, Froebel, Montessori, and Pestalozzi, among others, and is the basis of many preschool curricula. It is as vital to children's musical growth as it is to their cognitive, social, and emotional development. The purpose of this arti-
Approximation of holomorphic mappings on strongly pseudoconvex domains

Abstract Let D be a relatively compact strongly pseudoconvex domain in a Stein manifold S. We prove that for every complex manifold Y the set 𝒜(D, Y) of all continuous maps → Y which are holomorphic in D is a complex Banach manifold, and every ƒ ∈ 𝒜(D, Y) can be approximated uniformly on by maps holomorphic in open neighborhoods of in S. Analogous results are obtained for maps of class 𝒜 r (D), r ∈ . We also establish the Oka property for sections of continuous or smooth fiber bundles over which are holomorphic over D and whose fiber enjoys the Convex Approximation Property (Theorem 1.7).

Design of optimal linear-phase transmitter and receiver filters for digital systems

New solutions to the issue of designing transmitter and receiver filters for data transmission are proposed: We design two different linear-phase FIR filters, a shorter receiver filter and a longer transmitter filter, whose product is a Nyquist filter, with an exactly zero inter-symbol interference (ISI). Holding simultaneously exactly zero ISI and phase linearity is new for an oversampling factor equal to 2. The design algorithm takes into account various frequency specifications. Furthermore, the filters are nearly optimal with reference to signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the complexity of the transmission system is reduced. A design chart and several design examples are given which illustrate the capabilities of our approach.
Comparison of Job Satisfaction, Life Satisfaction, and Performance of Overeducated and Other Workers

Abstract It is becoming increasingly necessary for college graduates in the United States to take jobs requiring only a high school diploma. In the present study, the effects of employing such overeducated workers were assessed for a sample of city and county government workers. The sample included both overeducated workers and a cohort matched on job, sex, age, tenure, and supervisor. The hypotheses predicted lower job satisfaction over the six dimensions for the overeducated workers, and also that various worker perceptions would influence the predictions of the job satisfactions. None of the direct correlations between education and the six dimensions of job satisfaction were significant. The relationships between workers' perception variables and aspects of job satisfaction, however, were significant. There were no differences between the overeducated and their cohorts in general life satisfaction. On supervisory ratings, overeducated workers' performance was only slightly different from other workers.
Word Identification Abilities of Severely Disabled Readers: A Comparison in Isolation and Context

Examines the strong vs. weak relationships between word recognition in isolation and in context hypotheses. Reports a lack of specific relationships for a group of severely disabled readers. Although the performance on these tasks was correlated at . 68, a detailed analysis of individual performances demonstrated the inconsistent and idiosyncratic nature of the responses. The data, while not as clearcut as some reported earlier, seem nevertheless to support the weak relationship argument. In addition, two distinct types of disabled readers emerged from the analysis (those whose word recognition was superior in isolation and those whose word recognition was superior in context). Examination of individual response patterns suggest many traditional diagnostic assessment procedures may provide little useful information for instructional decisions.
Extracellular vesicles in parasitic diseases

Parasitic diseases affect billions of people and are considered a major public health issue. Close to 400 species are estimated to parasitize humans, of which around 90 are responsible for great clinical burden and mortality rates. Unfortunately, they are largely neglected as they are mainly endemic to poor regions. Of relevance to this review, there is accumulating evidence of the release of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in parasitic diseases, acting both in parasite–parasite inter-communication as well as in parasite–host interactions. EVs participate in the dissemination of the pathogen and play a role in the regulation of the host immune systems. Production of EVs from parasites or parasitized cells has been described for a number of parasitic infections. In this review, we provide the most relevant findings of the involvement of EVs in intercellular communication, modulation of immune responses, involvement in pathology, and their potential as new diagnostic tools and therapeutic agents in some of the major human parasitic pathogens.
Improving Vertical Jump Performance Through General, Special, and Specific Strength Training: A Brief Review

Vertical jump ability is a requirement for success in a number of sports. This paper reviews three broad categories of strength training methods by which vertical jump ability is commonly improved. It examines a theoretical rationale for a strength training program by identifying the neuromechanical factors that affect jumping performance. The results of studies using general, special, and specific strength training exercises are also examined. The role and application of these different exercises for athletes of different abilities is discussed. Practical methods for analyzing jumping performance and their relevance to strength training are also discussed.
Brain Responses to Words in 2-Year-Olds with Autism Predict Developmental Outcomes at Age 6

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that affects social behavior and language acquisition. ASD exhibits great variability in outcomes, with some individuals remaining nonverbal and others exhibiting average or above average function. Cognitive ability contributes to heterogeneity in autism and serves as a modest predictor of later function. We show that a brain measure (event-related potentials, ERPs) of word processing in children with ASD, assessed at the age of 2 years (N = 24), is a broad and robust predictor of receptive language, cognitive ability, and adaptive behavior at ages 4 and 6 years, regardless of the form of intensive clinical treatment during the intervening years. The predictive strength of this brain measure increases over time, and exceeds the predictive strength of a measure of cognitive ability, used here for comparison. These findings have theoretical implications and may eventually lead to neural measures that allow early prediction of developmental outcomes as well as more individually tailored clinical interventions, with the potential for greater effectiveness in treating children with ASD.
Effects of Self-Monitoring on Web-Based Language Learner's Performance and Motivation

This study examined the effect of a self-monitoring strategy on EFL online learners' academic performance and motivational beliefs. A total of 90 college freshmen participated in the study, and instruments used in the study included two general English proficiency tests, a course-based reading comprehension test, and a modified version of the Motivated Strategies for Learning Questionnaire (MSLQ). Students were randomly assigned to a control group and an experimental group. Scores of the first general English proficiency test were used to verify students' starting points. The students in the experimental group employed a self-monitoring strategy during the semester. At the end of the semester, a course-based comprehension test and the second general English proficiency test were administered. During the semester, data from the modified MSLQ were collected at two points in time--the third week and the sixteenth week. Data analyses revealed that adopting a self-monitoring strategy resulted in better academic performance and a generally positive pattern of motivational beliefs, including adaptive levels of control of learning beliefs and perception of task value.
Making equality relevant: Gender, housework, and sick leave legitimacy in online interaction

This article uses discursive psychology and conversation analysis to examine a Swedish online forum thread in which participants, who present as women on long-term sick leave, make gender equality relevant when discussing housework. Doing housework can challenge the legitimacy of the sick leave, and as a woman, one risks being categorized as a “housewife. ” Such a categorization can work to undermine sick leave legitimacy and is also problematic given norms of gender equality in Sweden. In the studied data, such inferences are managed by invoking a (male) partner in accounts for housework or by humorous and ironic gendered categorizations. The analysis focuses on how this is done in the fine details of the interaction, showing how sick leave legitimacy is managed within a normative framework of gender equality. The study provides a practically oriented approach to the gendered aspects of sick leave legitimacy and sheds light on the delicate interplay between gender equality and sick leave in everyday life.
Lab History: Reflections

After a productive start in the 1980s, laboratory history is now surprisingly neglected—not lab science, but the lab as social institution. To restart interest, I suggest that we see labs as period specific (early modern, modern, postmodern) and of a piece with each era's dominant social institutions and practices. In the modern era, for example, labs have become powerful and ubiquitous because their operating principles are those of the nation-state and its consumerist political economy. Their educational function is crucial: labs have authority because they are an effective vehicle for educating en masse for life in modern states; they provide general entry to careers in scores of disciplines and a thousand occupations; and they embody prevailing ideals of a meritocracy of competence, transparency (through publication), and a universalistic logic of objectivity. An older microhistory of laboratory practices may thus be reborn as a systematic, macrosocial history of the lab.
Inversion of Ultrasonic Attenuation for Textural Information of Polycrystals.

The mechanical properties of polycrystalline materials depend on the individual physical properties of the constituent grains. When grains are randomly oriented with respect to a fixed coordinate system, the average elastic properties are isotropic. A polycrystalline aggregate possesses macroscopic texture, and thus exhibit anisotropic elastic properties, when the grains are preferentially oriented. Accurate knowledge of texture is important for a number of engineering applications. For example, it plays an important role in determining their subsequent formability into finished parts of complex shape by deep drawing. Textural information can also be exploited to assess plastic damage in a component due to fatigue or external impact. Current ultrasonic methods are based on the relationship between ultrasonic phase velocities and only the low-order orientation distribution coefficients (ODCs, a set of orthonormal basis functions to express crystallographic orientation of a grain), a consequence of the application of Voigt averaging method to infer aggregate elastic properties. Thus, such techniques provide only a partial description of texture. It is well-known from the scattering theories that while phase velocity of acoustic waves is controlled primarily by averages of single grain elastic constant fluctuations, attenuation due to scattering of such waves at the grain boundaries are controlled by more » two-point averages of these fluctuations. Since these two-point averages depend on higher order ODCs, inversion of measured attenuation is expected to yield a more complete and accurate description of texture. In this paper, we will present computed frequency and direction dependent attenuation coefficient of ultrasonic waves in orthotropic polycrystals with equiaxed cubic grains and mathematically investigate the inversion of computed attenuation coefficient to obtain higher order ODCs. We will also compute pole figures and compare them with those obtained by current ultrasonic methods. « less
