Authors: Cunha Alan Nogueira da , Zanetti Maria Lucia , Santos Jair Licio Ferreira , Rodrigues Rosalina Aparecida Partezani
Published: December 2023

Objective: to relate Frailty Syndrome and sarcopenia in older adults with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus and identify potential risk factors for frailty and sarcopenia. Method: this descriptive epidemiological study was conducted with 140 older adults in the municipality of Sinop, Mato Grosso, Brazil. The frailty phenotype was used for the assessment of Frailty Syndrome, and a physical assessment questionnaire with calf circumference measurement was used for the assessment of sarcopenia. Results: regarding Frailty Syndrome, a higher percentage was observed in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus compared to those without the disease (p = 0.00). Concerning the presence of sarcopenia, older adults with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus showed similar values, with no statistical significance (p = .74). Frailty Syndrome was associated with physical inactivity (95%CI: 3.29-56.55), age over 75 years (95%CI: 3.30- 27.82), low family income (95%CI: 1.80-50.98), and comorbidities (95%CI: 4.90-5.40). However, sarcopenia was associated with the presence of physical inactivity (95%CI: 1.26-10.44), low weight/ eutrophic (95%CI: 3.32-26.76), and malnutrition/nutritional risk (95%CI: 1.30-7.70) for older adults with and without type 2 diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: older adults with diabetes have a higher vulnerability to develop Frailty Syndrome, necessitating the adoption of preventive measures in primary healthcare.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT Pico do Marumbi State Park, in the mountains of Paraná, is the cradle of Brazilian mountaineering, sheltering several altitudinal ecosystems and endangered species. The elaboration and discussion of indicators to assist in public use management is urgent due to the vulnerability and pressure that these environments are subject to. It is also important to characterize the visitation profile and the correlation of accidents and incidents to adopt tools to protect visitors and nature. The data analyzed were extracted from official sources, registers, and records of incidents and accidents. Statistical treatment was adopted, in the analysis of variance and mean comparison tests, according to an entirely randomized design. Furthermore, Pearson’s correlation coefficient (r) and cluster analysis determined the ideal season for visitation. Statistical differences were verified in different periods, with July with the highest average visitation, 924.6 visitors, and February with the lowest average, with 539.4 visitors. The cluster analysis identified the ideal period for visitation, between June and September. The trails to Abrolhos, Olimpo, and Rochedinho had the highest average, with 965.8, 1,080.4, and 1,088.2 visitors. Of the occurrences attended, 75% were from October to May and 25% from June to September. Olimpo is the trail with the highest number of occurrences, about 45%. For 2018 and 2019, the park received 56% of visitors going on their first time. According to the results, adopting preventive and educational information, consorting with technical and climatic criteria, can better triage and safeguard the environment, users, and rescuers more effectively.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) is a pre-fabricated engineered wood panel, generally made from conifer woods, mainly pine and spruce. Due to the low natural resistance of this species to deteriorating organisms attack, the Brazilian standard ABNT NBR 7190:1 (2022) orients the treatment of structural elements before being used. This study aimed to evaluate the resistance of woods from Pine and Spruce species, with different preservative treatments and retentions, against wood termite (Cryptotermes brevis) attack. Different species of Pine and Spruce (Pinus abies, Pinus sylvestris, Pinus elliottii e Pinus taeda) were evaluated, as well as different preservatives such as Impralit KDS-B, CCA (Chromated Copper Arsenate), CCB (Copper Borate Chromated), MCA-C (Micronized Copper Azol type C) and HQC 791 (fire retardant for wood), usually used in Brazil, the United States and Europe. The results demonstrated that the fire retardant induced greater resistance to attack by xylophagous organisms, with total insect mortality and no surface deterioration after 45 days of testing. The CCA preservative also demonstrated efficiency in wood treatment with high resistance to termite attack, high mortality and only superficial wear of the specimen. It was concluded, therefore, that preservative treatments are recommended to guarantee the durability of the constructive system so that the so-called engineered wood elements can be used as structural systems.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT The institution of biological value areas through the creation of Natural Protected Areas is an essential tool for protecting the country’s environmental resources to face advanced anthropic development in natural areas, either to increase agriculture production or for economic growth. Environmental vulnerability studies combined with geotechnological tools have been vital to identifying the most vulnerable areas and consequently help Conservation Units protection. This study aimed to analyze environmental vulnerability at the buffer zone of Itabira Natural Monument (MONAI) in Cachoeiro de Itapemirim, Brazil. The necessary methodological steps for this study were as follows: a) Photointerpretation of land use; b) Anthropic variables selection; c) Application of Euclidean distance function in variables vector images; d) Application of fuzzy membership function in variables raster images; e) Application of Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP); and f) Spatial classification of environmental vulnerability around MONAI. Land use conflicts reveal a relevant presence of pasture areas, representing 49.80% of the buffer zone. This fact corroborates with its Euclidean distance value, which showed the lowest linear value, 836 meters. Eight anthropic variables have been incorporated, highlighting crops, urban areas, exposed soil and pasture. Jenks natural breaks defined five vulnerability classes. According to the results, 57.14% of the entire MONAI buffer zone is represented by the high and very high classes. The outdated law creation of MONAI and the need for a management plan result in a vulnerable buffer zone. The present study can support management plan formulation and assist MONAI’s buffer zone delimitation.

Authors: Maia Silvia Tavares , Costa Tiago Viana da , Costa Francimara Souza da
Published: December 2023

Resumo No Amazonas, a agricultura familiar usa o sistema ambiental para a manutenção da vida, sendo sua produção destinada, prioritariamente, ao autoconsumo; e o excedente é destinado à comercialização. Considerando as peculiaridades da região e as características dos agricultores familiares, pressupõe-se que com a utilização de tecnologias é possível ampliar a inserção dos produtos no mercado. Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar a sustentabilidade de agroecossistemas familiares, de produtores de abacaxi de Novo Remanso/AM, mediante as tecnologias utilizadas. Para tanto, foram aplicados formulários semiestruturados, por meio de entrevistas a 30 agricultores associados à Cooperativa Agropecuária de Novo Remanso [COOPANORE]. Os componentes analisados foram: uso de máquinas, implementos e ferramentas; seleção de mudas; adubação; plantio; tratos culturais e colheita/pós-colheita. O índice tecnológico foi determinado individualmente para cada tecnologia e em conjunto, sendo que quanto mais próximo da tecnologia recomendada, melhor o nível tecnológico. Foi verificado que os agricultores utilizam mais de 50% das tecnologias recomendadas, representando padrão B, exceto as tecnologias seleção de mudas e colheita/pós-colheita, que apresentaram padrão C. Mesmo com o aumento da produção, a inserção tecnológica não resolveu o problema da comercialização do abacaxi, evidenciando que as tecnologias precisam vir acompanhadas de fatores organizacionais relativos à produção.

Published: December 2023

Abstract Preventive maintenance is an important strategy to improve physical availability, reduce downtime and extend equipment life. In the context of mining, transport fleets are large equipment and are subject to unplanned events that, in turn, interrupt operation and lead to unavailability. Therefore, the objective of this work is to analyze the main causes that influence the throughput of performance indicators of truck maintenance, focusing on the measurement of impacts caused by inefficiency of preventive maintenance. Thus, the data of 118 trucks were collected in 2022 and the performance calculated. The fleet CAT® 797F was prioritized was not adherent to the programmed, resulting in a production loss of 5,086,957 t o n s and, for maintenance, an unavailability was 9,722.88 h and 3,870 failures. Two evaluation requirements were proposed focusing on evaluating the notes and analyzing the adherence to the preventive. In summary, it was found that of the 783 scheduled preventive maintenance only 607 were performed and presented problems related to compliance with the guidelines. Finally, the inefficiency of the preventive ones generated an increase of more than 819 failures and an impact in the availability of 8.16%.

Authors: Araújo Leticia , Behr Ariel , Schiavi Giovana Sordi
Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to analyze feasible business analytics (BA) adoption initiatives in accounting and their potential antecedents and effects, according to experts and early adopters. BA solutions help professionals explore data and gain insights for decision making. Although there is a clear relationship between BA and accounting, there is a gap between the theory and its adoption in practice. The research is relevant to academia and the market because it presents the main antecedents, effects, uses, techniques, and data sources, as well as the characteristics of the task, technology, and individual that impact the fit between BA and accounting. The main antecedents of adoption and good practices in early adopter projects using BA are highlighted, reducing the theory-practice gap and bringing new elements to promote its adoption among professionals and organizations. A qualitative-exploratory study was conducted using semi-structured interviews with 20 professionals from different accounting areas. The results highlight the main BA usage initiatives: identifying improper transactions, analyzing larger volumes of data, and performing predictive analyses. Efficiency, quality, and improved decision making were the main effects of using BA. The feasibility of BA initiatives was analyzed using the task-technology fit (TTF) model and the antecedents of adoption were analyzed using the technology-organization-environment (TOE) model, identifying characteristics of the task, technology, and individual as well as technological, organizational, and environmental factors that increase the fit between BA and accounting. The study contributes to highlighting the barriers (regulation and data availability) that affect the adoption of BA and concludes that the purposes of use, the depth of adoption, and the effects differ according to the accounting area, as the main effects of the use of BA primarily impact the accounting area itself, followed by other stakeholders.

Authors: BRÍGIDO Evelina , RODRIGUES Ana , SANTOS Sofia
Published: December 2023

RESUMO Défices na Comunicação Social e Interação Social (CSIS) e nos Padrões Restritos e Repetitivos de Comportamentos, Interesses ou Atividades (PRRCIA) em crianças com Perturbação do Espetro do Autismo (PEA) são frequentemente explicados por problemas nas funções executivas (FE) e empatia. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar associações entre FE e empatia em 75 crianças com PEA (9,67±1,29), previamente separadas em dois grupos de acordo com a frequência de comportamentos típicos da PEA. Usando o Inventário Comportamental de Avaliação das Funções Executivas - Pais e a Escala de Avaliação da Empatia foram encontradas diferentes associações entre FE e empatia em ambos os grupos. No grupo com baixa frequência de comportamentos, as FE têm maior associação com CSIS (Grupo 1) do que os PRRCIA. O grupo com maior frequência de comportamentos e frequência mais homogênea entre os dois domínios (Grupo 2) apresentou associações mais fortes entre FE e PRRCIA e entre FE e empatia cognitiva. Comportamentos típicos do PEA foram melhor explicados pelas FE do que por empatia. A identificação de dificuldades nos processos neurocognitivos implicados nos comportamentos típicos da PEA poderá levar à maior adequação da intervenção numa perspetiva mais abrangente e, consequentemente, melhorar o funcionamento e comportamento adaptativo da criança no seu dia a dia.

Authors: GONÇALVES Adriana Garcia , BARONE Beatriz Vieira
Published: December 2023

RESUMO Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo verificar se o planejamento colaborativo de um plano de intervenção pedagógico elaborado entre duas pesquisadoras e uma professora de Classe Hospitalar influencia na construção e reconstrução da representação social do hospital sob a óptica das crianças hospitalizadas. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva e colaborativa. Participaram três crianças entre 7 e 11 ano de idade, que se encontravam hospitalizadas por no mínimo dois dias e que ainda não tinham tido acesso ao serviço da Classe Hospitalar. Ademais, a integrante principal do estudo foi uma professora da Classe Hospitalar de um Hospital Universitário. O planejamento colaborativo do plano de intervenção pedagógico ocorreu por meio de cinco encontros na plataforma do Google Meet. Por meio da técnica “Desenho-Estória” adotada como recurso no plano de intervenção pedagógico, constatou-se que, inicialmente, as crianças possuíam representações sociais negativas sobre o hospital. Entretanto, após o desenvolvimento das práticas pedagógicas da professora da Classe Hospitalar, os participantes modificaram suas percepções sobre esse espaço. Conclui-se que o planejamento colaborativo foi de extrema importância para a construção de práticas pedagógicas que influenciaram positivamente a representação social do hospital para as crianças hospitalizadas.
O ESTUDO DAS DIFERENÇAS INDIVIDUAIS POR ALFRED BINET E SUA CIRCULAÇÃO EM MINAS GERAIS (1925-1940)1
Authors: PETERSEN Laênia Martins , JINZENJI Mônica Yumi
Published: December 2023

RESUMO Este estudo analisa os pressupostos do pesquisador francês Alfred Binet (1857-1911) sobre as diferenças individuais a partir de livros e artigos que produziu a respeito do assunto entre 1895 e 1909 e que fundamentaram a elaboração da primeira escala métrica Binet-Simon em 1905. Em seguida, identifica quais elementos de suas elaborações circularam e como foram apropriados, no contexto das reformas educacionais em Minas Gerais nas décadas de 1920 a 1940. A pesquisa se desenvolveu no diálogo entre a História da Psicologia e a História da Educação, mobilizando conceitos da historiografia, como o de intelectuais, redes de sociabilidade e apropriação. A pesquisa documental envolveu a análise dos primeiros livros publicados por Binet e as matérias publicadas na Revista do Ensino, órgão oficial do governo de Minais Gerais, nas quais se tratava sobre as diferenças individuais e sobre o uso dos testes nas escolas. Foi observada a tensão envolvendo a desconfiança e o entusiasmo em relação aos novos métodos para aferir as diferenças individuais; a apropriação da escala métrica adaptada nos Estado Unidos, cujos princípios eram criticados por Binet; a pouca ênfase nas dimensões sociais e culturais dos diferentes grupos sociais, que estava entre as preocupações centrais do autor.

Authors: Oliveira-Silva Ligia Carolina , Barbosa-Silva Letícia
Published: December 2023

Abstract Women commonly face a complex network of barriers that hinder their career trajectory. Therefore, this article aims to address career interventions as a methodological strategy to minimize gender inequalities in the workplace. Given the scenario of inequalities experienced by women, attention in the development of interventions is needed, so that problems are not worsened with superficial initiatives that focus only on individuals. This article discusses gender inequality in careers; presents recommendations for research with interventions; exemplifies some interventions and provides a step-by-step guide for designing them, which consists of choosing the theoretical framework, defining the objectives, target audience and context, identifying resources, structuring the intervention, defining the content, activities and assessment. The limits and possibilities of using interventions in research on gender and career are discussed, in addition to the challenges of this scientific field.

Authors: Reis Thaís Cristina Marques dos , Antúnez Andrés Eduardo Aguirre , Yazigi Latife
Published: December 2023

Abstract University students are particularly susceptible to suicidal ideation and behavior due to issues inherent to this vital lives’ moment. The Rorschach test can help to understand these students’ suffering. The objective was to evaluate perception, thinking, stress, and distress in the Rorschach test domains in university students attended at a public university mental health service, comparing students with suicidal ideation with those without it. A total of 36 students aged 18 or over were assessed. The instruments were: Rorschach Performance Assessment System (R-PAS), Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) and Self Report Questionnaire (SRQ-20). Two analyses were performed using Wilcoxon Mann-Whitney test, according to the presence of suicidal ideation in the last 30 days (SRQ-20) and in the last six months (C-SSRS). Statistically significant differences were found in the two analyses, indicative of greater perceptual distortion in students without suicidal ideation and of stress and distress in students with ideation.
Research in Psychotherapy and Theory of Subjectivity: Care as its Foundation
Authors: Vaz Amanda Maria de Albuquerque , Mori Valéria Deusdará
Published: December 2023

Abstract This theoretical essay, based on González Rey’s Theory of Subjectivity, discusses research on psychotherapy grounded in Theory of Subjectivity, embracing the view that the singularity of psychotherapy - in relation to other practices - is its devotion to care. This paper aims to debate the specificities care imposes on research in Theory of Subjectivity based psychotherapy. The considerations woven represent innovations in this field, whose current view on psychotherapy interpret it as similar to other spaces in which research is also undertake. This article is based on authorial reflections related to Theory of Subjectivity current state. Thus, research in psychotherapy based on Theory of Subjectivity demands of the psychotherapist that he or she develops it as a tool of care, therefore depriving it from the position of main objective that it generally holds in Theory of Subjectivity. Some ethical issues connected to this thesis are also presented.

Authors: Bolsoni-Silva Alessandra Turini , Pizeta Fernanda Aguiar , Loureiro Sonia Regina
Published: December 2023

Abstract There are gaps in the ways in which maternal depression, educational practices and children’s behavior problems are associated. The objective was to verify: (a) associations between maternal depression, parenting practices and behavior problems in this sample; (b) the isolated and combined predictive effect of maternal depression and both positive and negative parenting practices on behavior problems; and (c) the possible moderating effect of positive parenting practices in the relation between maternal depression and behavior problems. Participants were 101 biological mothers who responded to validated self-report instruments. Data were treated by univariate and multivariate regression analyses, and moderation analyses were conducted. Associations were found between negative parenting, current maternal depression and behavior problems. And the moderation of positive practices in reducing the negative impact of depression on children’s behaviors was identified. Teaching positive practices is suggested to minimize risk factors for behavioral problems.

Published: December 2023

RESUMEN La historiografía social de Amazonia ha invisibilizado y silenciado el lugar ocupado por las mujeres en la vida en comunidades. Con la perspectiva de dar voz a las mujeres de la región de Río Negro, la historia de vida investigada en este trabajo buscó evidenciar ― a partir de las teorías feministas de género y de la perspectiva histórico-cultural de Vygotsky ― de qué manera niñas y mujeres asumieron la función de profesoras en esa región y de qué forma la ocupación de ese lugar se articula con procesos sociales más amplios. El objetivo es comprender la trayectoria y la constitución del papel de profesora ribereña en una comunidad en la región del Río Negro, próxima al municipio de Iranduba, en Amazonas. La metodología cualitativa se utilizó del estudio de caso por medio de entrevista narrativa abierta y semiestructurada y de entrevista móvil. El análisis se realizó por medio del método dialéctico. El resultado generó reflexiones acerca del proceso de convertirse en profesora, lo que colabora para el auto reconocimiento de la participante, su trayectoria y su lucha por educación y mejores condiciones de vida para su comunidad. Además, provoca reflexiones sobre el empoderamiento, el liderazgo femenino y las estrategias de resistencia configuradas con procesos sociales más amplios, asumiendo una presencia que construye diferentes formas de participación y protagonismo comunitario.

Published: December 2023

RESUMO Este artigo analisa como o programa Creches e Centros de Atendimento à Infância Caxiense (CCAIC), proposta intersetorial de segurança alimentar e nutricional, do município de Duque de Caxias, Baixada Fluminense do estado do Rio de Janeiro, que possui como critério de matrícula a desnutrição e/ou risco nutricional das crianças, tem traduzido as demandas sociais dos bebês, crianças e famílias, e seus possíveis efeitos na vida desses sujeitos. Para tanto, delineamos o histórico dessa política pública de combate à desnutrição; trazemos alguns achados advindos da análise diagnóstica da rede pública de educação infantil; e, por fim, analisamos os possíveis efeitos dessa política pública na garantia do direito ao acesso à creche, bem como vislumbramos demandas para uma política intersetorial de atendimento aos bebês e crianças. São explorados dilemas e tensões dessa política que tem como tarefa a mitigação da pobreza, como, por exemplo: a produção de um olhar preconceituoso sobre bebês, crianças e famílias, já que a ênfase está na noção de carência; a multidimensionalidade do ato de se alimentar, extrapolando uma perspectiva fisicalista dos nutrientes para a discussão da alimentação; a cristalização dos critérios de matrícula, naturalizando o comprometimento dos preceitos constitucionais e o princípio de igualdade que garantem a educação infantil para todas as crianças.

Published: December 2023

ABSTRACT This article aims to identify features of the school education carried out at the Educational Center for Minors (Centro Educacional para Menores [CEM]) between 1972 and 1982. This paracriminal institution, created by the Government of the State of Santa Catarina, in southern Brazil, from the perspective of the Minor’s Welfare Foundation (Fundação do Bem-Estar do Menor [FUNABEM]), had as its main goal to shelter male minors regarded as antisocial who lived in the Greater Florianópolis. The first part of the text describes how, from a bureaucratic-administrative viewpoint, the building of the CEM took place, as well as it provides a profile of the teenagers and young people admitted to that institution. And the other part of the text analyzes the national and state-level guidelines that governed school education.

RESUMEN El presente artículo tiene como objetivo analizar el inventario como instrumento técnico-metodológico para el análisis de datos documentales caros a las investigaciones realizadas en el campo de la Historia de la Educación, a partir de producciones académicas en el contexto amazónico, en particular, en el estado de Pará. El estudio se caracteriza como una investigación bibliográfica, que presenta 19 trabajos encontrados en los repositorios de disertaciones y tesis de los Programas en Educación de la Universidad del Estado de Pará (UEPA), de la Universidad Federal de Pará (UFPA) y del Programa en Currículo y Gestión de la Escuela Básica de la UFPA, que asumieron la utilización de la técnica del inventario en la elaboración de sus estudios o presentaron abordajes aproximativos. El análisis de las disertaciones y tesis suscitan la significativa contribución de la técnica del inventario al proceso de organización y sistematización de las fuentes, así como al proceso analítico de documentos de diferentes tipos que compusieron estudios que se enfocaron en dar visibilidad a la historia de instituciones, de prácticas y de sujetos en la Amazonia. El inventario se mostró, aún, un instrumento que contribuye para una política de preservación del patrimonio histórico-educativo y pedagógico, por su capacidad de agrupar documentos que, generalmente, están dispersos en colecciones y archivos no siempre bien-organizados y accesibles a la sociedad.

RESUMO Esse artigo faz uma reflexão sobre os dez anos do Mestrado Profissional em Educação: Teoria e Prática de Ensino da UFPR, principalmente em relação aos seus objetivos e as suas perspectivas formativas centralizadas nas práticas educativas na Educação Básica. Sustentamos a compreensão de que fazer é pensar, reivindicando a abertura para práticas de pesquisa em educação, implicadas para pensar a atividade pedagógica em profundidade para interferir no modo de fazer educação. Utilizando filósofos como Friedrich Nietzsche e Michael Foucault, argumentamos que é necessário pensar de outra maneira, encontrar outros meios de interpretação e orientação que se distanciem consideravelmente de teorias como expressões da verdade e de práticas como simples aplicação de técnicas. Metodologicamente problematizamos a relação teoria e prática analisando as perspectivas já consolidadas, mas também propondo outras maneiras de construir essa relação. Como conclusão avaliamos que as discussões sobre os fins e meios de um Mestrado Profissional em Educação ainda dependem muito da demarcação de um estatuto científico, que sistematize alguma capacidade de orientação efetiva para as atividades de ensino e aprendizagem nas escolas, e a inclusão de novas perspectivas, principalmente argumentando sobre a necessidade de incluir além da formação de práticas da docência, também a gestão da educação.
Memory Policies on the Authoritarian Past and Outcomes for Democracy in Argentina and Brazil

Published: December 2023

Abstract In this article, we seek to understand how two countries that experienced, at similar times, authoritarian regimes and fluctuations in their economic performance ended up developing consistently different levels of support for democracy. Our argument is that the different processes of transition to democracy in the two countries produced different institutional arrangements, conditioning reparations and memory policies on authoritarian regimes, as well as dissimilar possibilities for political interference by the armed forces, influencing the contrasting levels of support for democracy. In order to do that, we analysed opinion polls and reconstructed the transition processes as well as the implementation and development of reparation and memory policies about authoritarian regimes. This paper seeks to contribute to the field of research in two ways. First, in terms of discussing the factors that can interfere with adherence to democracy. And secondly, by comparatively addressing the processes of transition to democracy and the long-term repercussions of these processes, such as the recent military influence in Brazilian politics.
Local dynamics in ProUni beneficiaries’ strategy for transition from higher education to job market

Published: December 2023

Abstract In the last decades, Brazil has been marked by affirmative action policies to reduce inequalities in access to higher education, a persistent social problem in the country. One crucial policy that has that goal is the Programa Universidade para Todos (ProUni), offering grants in private higher education institutions for poor students from public high schools (ProUnians). This paper analyzes their trajectories in Law School and their job market expectations. The theoretical framework uses Bourdieu's praxiological sociology to understand ProUnians’ habitus and strategies. The authors conducted 30 interviews with former ProUni beneficiaries who graduated from elite law institutions in the Recife Metropolitan Area (RMA) and in the São Paulo Metropolitan Area (SPMA), using the approach of snowball sampling, and working from the premise that the competence required to choose the best tactics varies with the possibility of success of the dominant strategy in the field. The results show that because of their lack of social and economic capital, ProUnians cannot choose the dominant strategy, seeking to develop a new one by reinforcing their unique capital accumulation while practicing tactics to balance their competitiveness.

Abstract This paper analyzes the perspective of Brazilian citizens on democracy and the individual determinant factors for each of these conceptions. This paper begins by mapping Brazilians' conceptions of democracy based on questions from the 2006, 2014, and 2018 World Values Survey, which allow us to differentiate to what extent citizens have more or less commitment to conceptions of liberal democracy, social democracy, and direct democracy, or accept certain authoritarian alternatives. Subsequently, the individual determinant factors of the different views of democracy are analyzed, including sociodemographic and attitudinal variables. The results show the stability of views of democracy among Brazilians between 2006 and 2018 and the prevalence of a liberal democracy view. Ideological positions of citizens are variously associated with different views of democracy.

Abstract The objective of this work was to evaluate the effect of the suppression of female flowers on the pollen fertility of male flowers of banana plants. Two modes of female flower suppression, one partial and one complete, were applied shortly after flowering to diploid, triploid, and tetraploid banana genotypes. The effect of flower suppression on the number of male flowers and the length of their anthers was evaluated, as well as pollen viability and the size and number of pollen grains per anther. Pollination tests were performed to evaluate the number of seed obtained from the progeny of some genotypes. The total suppression of female flowers significantly increases pollen fertility, estimated by an increase in the number of pollen grains per anther (up to 80% per anther). Total female flower suppression also improves significantly seed production in the crosses (from 35 to 160% per pollinated bunch), which suggests a positive influence of the sap flowing through the bunch on the efficiency of banana pollen.
Evolution of canker severity and stem quality on African mahogany growth

Abstract The objective of this work was to investigate the influence of the qualitative traits canker severity and stem quality on the mean annual increment (MAI) in diameter, total height, and stem height of an African mahogany (Khaya grandifoliola) stand. The study area is located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, where continuous forest inventories were conducted over six years for data collection. Given the nonparametric characteristic of the data, an aligned rank transform analysis of variance was performed for each factor, and the averages were compared by Dunn’s multiple test. There was no significant effect of the interaction between the classes of canker severity and stand age. Increased canker severity has a significant effect on MAI values, causing reductions of 13% in diameter, 11% in total height, and 21% in stem height in trees from the highest canker severity class, when compared with the healthy ones. Age interacts significantly with stem quality, and MAI values tend to be similar in younger trees, differing over time in the oldest ones. In addition, the highest MAI values are recorded in trees with the best stem classification.

Published: December 2023

A comprehensive study was undertaken to investigate the most important factors influencing the increased demand for composite materials such as fibre-reinforced polymers in civil infrastructure applications. Subsequently, this research aimed to perform a conceptual review, which ultimately examines the viability of composite materials for civil infrastructure applications. In doing so, a review of the literature was carried out to determine how composites differ from traditional materials. As such, sustainable material practices were used as a framework. This research then assessed the viability of composite materials for infrastructure and produced a viability rubric. This research found that (a) the biggest trends currently influencing composite use in infrastructures include application-ability, constructability, design-ability and performance-ability. Moreover, innovation, sustainability requirements and economic constraints are also important considerations. Consequently, factors such as recyclability, cost and maintenance are also important inclusions. (b) Although composites have a higher manufacturing cost, the overall life-cycle cost, which includes installation and use costs, can be made more economical than those of traditional materials. Such findings can further promote the use of composite materials for civil infrastructure applications.
Análisis de determinantes y gestión de riesgos en crowdfunding de préstamos entre pares

El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la tendencia en investigación sobre los determinantes y gestión de riesgos en crowdfunding de préstamos P2P, con el fin de ampliar el conocimiento a inversionistas, empresarios y formuladores de políticas sobre esta financiación disruptiva. Se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo con descripción de publicaciones enfocadas al riesgo crediticio. Seguidamente, se realizó un análisis bibliométrico de la producción científica en las bases WOS y Scopus. El análisis bibliométrico se realizó con las plataformas VOSviewer y RStudio (librerías Bibliometrix y Biblioshiny), en el que se identificaron cuatro clústeres temáticos actuales de investigación que enfocan la producción de conocimiento. A partir del análisis descriptivo se realizó una aproximación teórica con los hallazgos más relevantes. Este estudio concluye que el crowdfunding de préstamos P2P es emergente en Latinoamérica y requiere atención en el riesgo crediticio presente en los prestatarios y en la plataforma en línea, con factores que limitan al inversionista en la identificación de riesgos e interpretación de modelos que los predicen y evalúan, lo cual los expone a altas probabilidades de incumplimiento de pago por parte de los prestatarios. Por ende, es necesario fortalecer la normatividad en el contexto de los países donde se desarrolla, a fin de generar credibilidad y confianza en este mercado disruptivo.
