PREDICTING CHILDREN’S MENTAL WELL-BEING DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC BASED ON MATERNAL COGNITIVE EMOTION REGULATION
Authors: Dehnash Delaram
Published: November 2024

Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the lack of warm, supportive and positive relationships caused behavioral and psychological problems in children. This study aimed to predict the psychological well-being of primary school students during the COVID-19 pandemic based on parental self-efficacy and cognitive emotion regulation in mothers based on the mediating role of the parent-child relationship. Methodology: The present applied research used a descriptive correlation in terms of data collection and analysis. This research was conducted on 385 cases, including students and their parents, who were selected using a random sampling method. The research instruments included the Reef’s psychological well-being questionnaire (18 questions), Johnston and Mash parenting sense of competence scale, Garnefski’s cognitive emotion regulation questionnaire and Fine’s parent-child relationship scale. Two psychology experts assessed the face validity of the questionnaires. Reliability of the questionnaires was measured using Cronbach’s alpha coefficients. SPSS software was used to analyze the data. Results: The average total scores of psychological well-being, parenting sense of competence, parent-child relationship and cognitive emotion regulation were 68, 58.3, 72.1 and 61.4, respectively. Maternal cognitive emotion regulation was a significant predictor of the parent-child relationship (p<0.01). We found that parenting sense of competence and maternal cognitive emotion regulations were able to predict students’ psychological well-being through parent-child relationship during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusion: Increasing the level of parenting sense of competence and regulating parental emotions can improve the relationship between parents and their children.

Contingent Conjunctures and Infrastructures of Racial Capitalism: Activating and Confining Refugees after the 'Summer of Migration'
Authors: Maaroufi Mouna
Published: November 2024

The article retraces the institutional, legal, and societal developments that have accompanied the increasing interlocking of asylum and workfare policies in Germany since the 'summer of migration' in 2015. By analyzing the infrastructures, narratives, but also conflicts and contingencies that underlie politics for labor market activation as they are experienced by refugees in Berlin and Brandenburg, ongoing social and institutional struggles around them are illustrated. The article argues that differential and contingent access to workfare measures corresponds to attempts to selectively and logistically activate potential workers for precarious segments and sectors. Infrastructures involved in such differential and confining activation are examined as to the racializing and coercive effects that they have on labor market participation through their unequal distribution of resources and precarities. It is argued that through their logistified approach, current conjunctures of racial capitalism contribute to forging more and more precarious, stratified, and fragmented social rights and labor relations. In spite of these contingent and divisive tendencies in racial capitalism, manifold struggles against racism and in favor of equal labor market participation continue to be fought.

Objetivou-se descrever os desafios enfrentados por deficientes auditivos no acesso ao serviço de saúde. Estudo de natureza teórica, exploratória, descritiva e qualitativa. Realizado por meio de entrevista semiestruturada composta por 10 questões subjetivas, aplicada no período de 15 de março a 13 de maio de 2024. Organizaram-se e analisaram-se os dados pela técnica da análise de conteúdo temática de Minayo. Participaram do estudo quatro mulheres e dois homens, com idade de 18 a 34 anos, com surdez severa ou profunda, estudantes de uma instituição de nível superior e técnico do município de Aracati-CE. As entrevistas foram filmadas e gravadas em Iphone com a presença da intérprete de Libras. A partir das entrevistas surgiram cinco categorias temáticas. Evidenciou-se nos discursos, as dificuldades de acesso nos serviços de saúde, sendo a falta de comunicação profissional-pessoa surda, a que mereceu maior destaque, uma vez que eles consideram que os profissionais de saúde não estão preparados para atendê-los, fazendo com que haja lacunas no processo de atendimento e falta de integralidade do cuidado. Neste estudo visualizou-se com clareza os desafios enfrentados por esse grupo de deficientes auditivos, mesmo existindo políticas públicas e vários documentos legais, principalmente leis e a própria Constituição Federal brasileira que protegem seus direitos, ainda assim, essas pessoas ainda enfrentam dificuldades sofrendo preconceito em termos de socialização, inclusão e acesso aos serviços do SUS. Assim, é preciso oportunizar uma consulta com comunicação clara e efetiva, respeitando a privacidade e sigilo, proporcionando escuta qualificada e atendimento humanizado.
PROTEÇÃO FAMILIAR E GUARDA COMPARTILHADA: IMPACTOS DA LEI Nº 14.713/2023 EM CASOS DE VIOLÊNCIA DOMÉSTICA
Authors: Silva Ana Isabel Santos Figueredo
Published: November 2024

O presente artigo tem como objeto de análise a Lei nº 14.713, de 30 de outubro de 2023, que impôs alterações significativas sobre o Código Civil e Código de Processo Civil, sobretudo, no tocante ao risco de violência doméstica ou familiar como causa impeditiva ao exercício da guarda compartilhada. Sabe-se que uma convivência abusiva tem o potencial de causar danos à criança ou ao adolescente que, inclusive, podem repercutir até a vida adulta. A nova lei traz o condão de amparar e assistir o menor ante o cenário de risco, malgrado em situações em que venha a perdurar a possibilidade de violência doméstica, o que tornar-se-ia um impeditivo à concessão de guarda compartilhada. Portanto, a referida Lei visa inibir que a violência doméstica seja perpetrada sobre os filhos e, num contexto mais amplo, visa proteger a família como um todo. Percebe-se que na nova Lei, o que prepondera é o interesse da criança/adolescente e da mulher para garantia fundamental de uma vida sem violência. Assim, busca-se compreender como o impedimento da guarda compartilhada, em cenários de violência doméstica explicita ou não, pode refrear esse reflexo da violência também sobre os filhos. Por fim, busca-se refletir sobre as modalidades de guarda e qual o modelo ideal para o menor, diante de um lar marcado pela violência doméstica e familiar.

Na odontologia uma técnica muito utilizada para planejamento e/ou procedimentos odontológicos é a moldagem. Essa consiste na aquisição do negativo do arco moldado para que se obtenha uma cópia fiel em gesso da cavidade oral do paciente. Esse procedimento, no entanto, traz desconforto ao paciente e elevados gastos ao dentista. Existe hoje no mercado um dispositivo que realiza o escaneamento dos maxilares substituindo essa moldagem convencional, entretanto o custo para aquisição desse equipamento ainda é muito alto. Com o intuito de solucionar o problema exposto, esse estudo propõe a criação de um dispositivo de escaneamento intraoral com eficiência e menor custo. Para tanto, foi realizada uma revisão bibliográfica sobre técnicas de moldagens da cavidade oral e escaneamento digital com objetivo de criar um protótipo de um scanner 3D. Foi construído um protótipo para escaneamento de sólidos, no qual o objeto gira em torno do seu eixo e o scanner permanece fixo durante a aquisição das imagens. Realizou-se também os escaneamentos, passando pelas etapas de aquisição e corte das imagens, tratamento das cores e aplicação de algoritmos para a obtenção de coordenadas objetivando a criação de nuvens de pontos. Como resultado desse trabalho, obtivemos uma nuvem de pontos 3D de um sólido, usando tecnologias de fácil aquisição. Podemos concluir que a moldagem por escaneamento é fiel e a longo prazo possui menos custos que a moldagem convencional.

Contrastive Analysis of Similes with Dog Image in English and Vietnamese and Implications
Authors: Le Hoai Thu
Published: November 2024

Studies on dog images in idiomatic languages ​​in different languages ​​always receive a lot of attention from researchers. The present study examines the similarities of 21 English-Vietnamese dog similes and tries to account for the differences based on Hofstede’s model (2001). The analysis results show that the image of the dog in each language has unique cultural characteristics due to the influence of factors such as geographical circumstances and customs. While the image of a dog appearing in English similes has both positive meaning (38%) and negative meaning (62%), Vietnamese similes record a full dominance in negative meanings (100%). Besides, the semantic symbols of similes with dog elements in Vietnamese and English have interesting similarities. Understanding the semantic characteristics of words for dogs in English and Vietnamese similes contributes to discovering new things about the life, customs, practices, culture, and thinking of British and Vietnamese people.
The impact of investment, PDRB growth, and minimum wage on regional tax revenue across 34 provinces in Indonesia
Authors: Sagala Eliza Clara Yeremia
Published: November 2024

Regional Tax commonly dominated Local Own-Source Revenue (PAD) from 2018 to 2023. In fact, regional tax revenue reached 73.4% of total PAD in 2023. This highlights the importance of optimizing Regional Tax collection. This study aims to determine the influence of Gross Regional Domestic Product (PDRB), Domestic Investment (PMDN), and Regional Minimum Wage (UMR) on Regional Tax Revenue. This research uses quantitative associative method with multiple linear regression to determine the relationship of dependent and independent variables. The results show that all three independent variables affect regional tax revenue simultaneously. Partially, PDRB and PMDN have a significant positive effect while Regional Minimum Wage has no significant effect on Regional Tax. This indicates that local governments must increase Gross Regional Domestic Product and Domestic Investment to optimize Regional Tax revenue. It is recommended that local governments formulate policies to encourage investment through financial incentives such as tax reductions and bureaucratic simplification, including streamlined licensing processes.

Composite Bows of the Population from the Northern Foothills of Altai during the Turkic Khaganates Period (on materials from the Gorny-10 necropolis)
Authors:   Altai State University, Seregin Nikolai , Matrenin Sergei ,   Altai State University, Stepanova Nadezhda ,   Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: November 2024

The article presents the results of a systematic analysis and interpretation of composite bows from the burials of the Gorny-10 necropolis. This complex, which today represents the largest of the studied sites of the beginning of the early Middle Ages in the south of Western Siberia, is located in the Krasnogorsk region of the Altai Krai. The published series of finds includes sets of horn overlays from 15 graves, which contained mainly male burials. Morphological analysis and classification of 52 horn overlays in good and satisfactory preservation became the basis for identifying seven types of bows with different lengths and designs. A comparison of the studied specimens with similar finds from sites in the Asian region made it possible to determine the relative chronology of various modifications of products within the second half of the 6th — first half of the 8th centuries AD. It has been established that the identified variability in the design of composite bows indicates a rather long period of usage of the Gorny-10 necropolis.
Jewelry Workshop from the Excavations of the Southern Part of the Zemlyanoe Hillfort of Staraya Ladoga. Part 1. Questions of Chronology
Authors:   Institute for the History of Material Culture of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Grigoreva Natalja
Published: November 2024

A complex of workshop buildings from the ninth century was investigated in the southern part of the Zemlyanoe hillfort in Staraya Ladoga. The workshop produced jewelry made of a fusible metal alloy that imitated silver. A total of 209 pendants, plaques, molds for their manufacture, spatters, and metal ingots were discovered. The tradition of jewelry production similar to that found in Ladoga dates back to the early Slavic antiquities of the Lower Danube and Dniester region in the sixth and seventh centuries. Additionally, the workshop produced embossed jewelry using lightly fused casting. Unfortunately, the excavations did not include the necessary methodological work to establish the stratigraphic ordering of the exposed structures and finds. For this reason, the studied objects were incorrectly dated, introducing contradictions into the site’s internal chronology and complicating their use for external dating of analogs. The article presents the results of the work to divide the complex’s buildings into separate structures. A comparison of the assemblage with previously known finds led to the conclusion that the workshop had existed at least 30 years earlier. To substantiate the need to correct the previously published dates, the author uses the finds with Slavic analogs and other jewelry workshop products.
Formation of the First Rum Emirates in the Eleventh Century
Authors: Lytvynov German , Pylypchuk Yaroslav ,   Western Caspian University, Drobot Ivan ,   Ukrainian State Drahomanov University
Published: November 2024

Byzantium often waged wars with military associations of nomads and Muslim states. In the 11-th century, the empire faced a new type of political entity, which was a supra-tribal nomadic confederation and a sultanate at the same time. The Seljuk supra-tribal confederation included autonomous Turkmen groups that, for a century, constantly invaded Byzantine Anatolia (Rum) and were able to establish emirates of Kutlumysh, Danishmend, Çaka, and Baladukiya. The novelty of the work lies in the fact that the formation of the Rum emirates is considered from the standpoint of the theory of nomadism.
Political Censorship and Historical Propaganda in the Mongolian States of the 13th — early 14th Centuries, as Illustrated by the Story of the Capture of Urgench
Authors: Porsin Artem
Published: November 2024

The study aims to analyze how various sources reflected the events of the siege and assault of Urgench by the Mongols in 1220—1221. It has long been established in historiography that the sources written in the Mongol Empire or in its independent uluses under the rule of the Toluids described this event extremely tendentiously. Therefore, texts describing the fall of the Khwarezmian capital are divided into two categories: sources independent of Toluid propaganda and censorship, such as an-Nasawi and Juzjani, and sources from the “imperial circle.” According to sources of the first group, the siege and assault of Urgench until the very end of hostilities was led by the eldest son of Genghis Khan, Jochi. Messages from sources in the second group were created under political censorship, the main purpose of which in this case was to question Jochi’s leadership in these events. The reason for such close attention of the authors of these accounts to this issue was the idea that existed in the Mongol Empire of the system of “merits” and “misconducts” of individuals before Genghis Khan, as the legal basis for the status of their descendants and the validity of their hereditary claims. At the same time, sources capable of confirming “merit” or “misconduct” included certain categories of official historical texts.

Published: November 2024

In 1981, A. Bortoli-Kazansky, who specially studied the spreading of architectural details of Proconnesian marble in the Crimean territory, identified four points within the southern coast of the region where finds of such products are known — Cape Ai-Todor, Autka village, the Mount Ayu-Dag and the Parthenite Basilica. In the process of time, the central part of the information that she published was substantially distorted by other researchers, who, to a large extent, necessitated a re-examination of the primary sources and a critical analysis of all other versions introduced into scientific circulation. At the moment, the number of locations can be increased. New and previously unaccounted before objects became known — Karabakh-Burun Cape, Gelin-Kaya Castle, Lower Massandra, temples at the foot of Dzhenevez-Kaya, on the Panea Rock and in Ai-Vasil, the Kiparisny village (former Kuchuk-Lambat), two buildings in Laspi. The key finds are represented by Corinthian and Ionic capitals with an impost, bases, whole and fragmented fusts of columns, products with carved ornaments, floor coverings, and small architectural forms of liturgical purpose.

Rakia among the Albanians of the Balkans: borrowing technology, cultural phenomenon and a constant of tradition
Authors:   Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography (Kunstkamera) of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Novik Alexander
Published: November 2024

The paper addresses the special status of rakia (an alcoholic drink obtained by distillation from fermented fruits and berries) in the culture and traditions of Albanians in the Western Balkans. The technological revolution in the processing of raw plants, which ensured the spread of the production of strong drinks in the Mediterranean in the 7th—12th centuries, enabled the conditions for the rooting of rakia in the food system, ritual sphere, cultural exchange and social life of the peoples of South-Eastern Europe: Albanians, Greeks, Eastern Romans, Southern Slavs, etc. The study in the paradigm of anthropology aims to identify the conditions and mechanisms for the entry of innovative food technologies into home production and industry, the pattern of their inclusion or, conversely, rejection from the system of traditional practices, values and priorities. The study, based on the author’s fieldwork materials from 1990—2024, as well as archival data (primarily analysis of ethnological and folklore sources), allows us to conclude that the Albanians, despite the spread of Islam, which prohibited alcoholic drinks, starting from the 14th century, and a long period of monism (1944 — early 1990s), which pursued private initiative and almost any agricultural work outside the cooperative, preserved the production of rakia and the tradition of its consumption as an indispensable condition for maintaining the family economy and budget, food culture and consumption standards, leisure time and preserving social ties.

Transgenic cotton, expressing Cry1Ac and Cry2Ab insecticidal δ-endotoxin protein of Bacillus thuringiensis Berliner often referred as Bt cotton, is widely grown in many countries. Bt cotton with a single cry1Ac gene and stacked also with cry2Ab gene provided satisfactory protection against major lepidopteran pests. A survey has been conducted in different cotton growing areas of Tamil Nadu to study the relative susceptibility of key lepidopteran pests viz., Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) and Spodoptera litura Fab. to Bt cotton. Bioassay studies indicated that, H. armigera population collected from Madurai region recorded a maximum susceptibility of 96.67 per cent and Coimbatore population recorded a minimum susceptibility of 83.33 per cent to bollgard II (RCH 2 Bt). In the case of S. litura, the highest susceptibility was recorded from the population collected from Madurai region (70.00%) and lowest from Salem region (53.33).
Performance Shortfall, Top Management Team Faultlines, and R&D Investment: Evidence from China
Authors: Gao Yirong , Wei Xiaoxi , Zhang Feng , Yi Dongfeng
Published: November 2024

With the increasing uncertainty of the world economic situation, enterprises are facing the pressure of downward performance, and R&D has been an important strategic choice to solve the performance fall problem of high-tech enterprises. The article tries to explore the changes in the R&D investment intensity of enterprises under different performance lag levels and investigate the influence of the combination of characteristics of top management team(TMT) members on the strategic decision-making process. It is found that the relationship between the degree of performance disparity and R&D investment intensity is inverted U-shaped; the strength of the fracture faultline of the top management team negatively regulates the relationship between the degree of performance disparity and R&D investment and makes the inverted U-shaped curve flat. A further study of specific characteristic fracture bands revealed that team fracture bands based on tenure characteristics had a significant negative moderating effect, while professional and functional background fracture bands had a significant positive moderating effect. This study not only theoretically expands the understanding of the performance shortall and TMT disconnection on the deep-seated motivation of enterprise R&D investment, but also provides practical references for solving the problem of performance gap, optimizing the allocation of TMT human resources, and rationally promoting enterprise R&D investment to achieve transformation.
Six ways to misunderstand precarity: Reflections on social angst and its political offspring
Authors: Azmanova Albena
Published: November 2024

These reflections develop a comprehensive conceptualization of precarity as a condition of politically and systemically generated economic and social vulnerability caused by insecurity of livelihoods - a form of disempowerment, experienced as incapacity to cope, itself rooted in a misalignment between responsibility and power. Precarity, thus understood, is a transversal social injustice cutting across differences in social class, education, employment, and income. It harms people's material and psychological welfare and hampers society's capacity to manage adversity and govern itself. The article elaborates on the above conceptualization by addressing six fallacies in debates on precarity: 1: "There is nothing particularly new about insecurity"; 2: "There is nothing particularly bad about insecurity"; 3: "The cure of precarity is certainty and stability, this is best achieved by an autocratic rule"; 4. "Only the poor and the exploited are truly precarious"; 5. "Fighting poverty and inequality is sufficient to eliminate precarity"; 6. "The precarity of the rich is not important".
Symmetry and Solidarity in the Settler Colony Revisiting Albert Camus's Algerian Writings
Authors: Toscano Alberto
Published: November 2024

In a critical engagement with Marc Crépon's Murderous Consent, this essay revisits Albert Camus's writings on Algeria, from 1939 to the throes of the war of independence. Against the argument that Camus's work can provide a moral and philosophical compass for a critique of violence, it explores the effects that Camus's complex identification with France and its project of settler-colonialism in North Africa has on his understanding of the resistance, and eventually the war, of natives against the pieds-noir and the power of the colonial metropole. Camus toggles between presenting violence in the settler-colony as somehow symmetrical (marked by crimes on both sides), and ultimately assuming a fundamental asymmetry, in which France provides the only legitimate frame for economic development and political emancipation. In Camus's colonial humanism, solidarity for the native's anti-colonial demands and understanding for the violence of resistance can only ever be partial, constrained by a modernising paternalism for which a break with France spells catastrophe and regression.
What Comes After the Critique of the Corporate University? Toward a Syndicalist University
Authors: Barrow Clyde W
Published: November 2024

For the past three decades, university faculty have produced a cascade of contemporary protest literature that routinely criticizes the knowledge factory, academic capitalism, managed professionals, college for sale, the university in ruins, the corporate corruption of higher education, and University, Inc. University faculty are regularly warned about the fall of the faculty, the last professors, and the last intellectuals. This article reviews the historical development of the corporate and neoliberal university, but it takes the next step of asking what is to be done after the critique of the corporate university. It calls on faculty to engage in a variety of direct actions that circumvent established faculty institutions and proposes a new type of syndicalist university that is owned and managed by faculty. The legitimating principle of this revolution in university control is a principle that has long been accepted in classical liberal, Marxist, and anarcho-syndicalist theory - the right of first generation and the labor theory of value.

This study conducted a detailed analysis of I. Seosul (Introduction) II. Life of Gisaeng, which includes errors about Ginyeo (Gisaeng) such as the origin and role of Gisaeng, type and definition of Gisaeng, Gisaeng system, and abolition of female musician system. Then, this study compared them with related historical records, codes, and annals, including [History of Goryeo Dynasty] and [The Annals of the Joseon Dynasty], to correct each error in details. For III. Ginyeo and Sadaebu, this study examined the main ideas of each theme, investigated detailed information of cited references, corrected errors, and explored overall descriptive characteristics. The main matters corrected in this study were as follows. First, [Introduction of Gisaeng’ History in the Joseon Dynasty(Sadaebu and Ginyeo)] by Dongwook Kim (1966) shows a considerable number of overlapping parts in terms of writing method and contents with the [Joseon Haeeohwasa] by Neunghwa Lee (1927), who is one of the main pro-Japanese historians during the Japanese colonial era and distorter of Korean Gisaeng history. In particular, both of them cover the same unofficial histories, stories, tales, episodes, and novels, and a lot of the Gisaeng introduced in these materials are the same people. Second, most of the contents and episodes focus on the early Joseon Dynasty, from King Taejo to Yeonsangun. Therefore, the [Introduction of Gisaeng’ History in the Joseon Dynasty] is limited in its academic scope and fails to cover the history of Ginyeo during the Joseon Dynasty in terms of customs.
Third, the [Introduction of Gisaeng’ History in the Joseon Dynasty] involves considerable problems as it only focuses on negative Ginyeo episodes biased to obscene, provocative, and sexual episodes, except for the episodes of Ginyeo of righteous deeds in [Ginyeo and Fidelity]. Lastly, [Introduction of Gisaeng’ History in the Joseon Dynasty(Sadaebu and Ginyeo)] has been reproduced indiscreetly without any doubt in Gisaeng-related papers, publications, papers on the Gisaeng of the Joseon Dynasty and origin of Gisaeng, and other master’s and doctorate papers starting from research history analysis considering the fact that it was the first introductory research that covered the history of Ginyeo during the Joseon Dynasty and evaluation and authority of Dongwook Kim in academic circles as a Korean literature scholar. Thus, researchers need to go through additional and thorough verification process to secure academic validity before re-citing the [Introduction of Gisaeng’ History in the Joseon Dynasty].

Published: November 2024

Introdução:  O Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA), é uma condição complexa cuja fisiopatologia ainda não é completamente compreendida, mas que é caracterizada por fatores genéticos e ambientais que podem afetar o desenvolvimento cerebral, tradicionalmente, o tratamento do TEA envolve terapias convencionais, como terapia ocupacional, de fala e intervenções comportamentais, que buscam desenvolver habilidades sociais e comunicação, fazendo com que a medicina complementar e alternativa (CAM) ganhe espaço como uma abordagem para complementar ou reduzir a dependência de tratamentos farmacológicos. Objetivo: o trabalho tem como objetivo explorar a relevância das terapias complementares e alternativas (CAM) no tratamento de indivíduos com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA), discutindo seus potenciais benefícios em conjunto com a medicina convencional para melhorar a qualidade de vida desses pacientes. Metodologia:  a metodologia utilizada foi uma revisão bibliográfica, com buscas nas bases de dados PubMed e BVS entre 2008 e 2023, em artigos nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, a seleção dos estudos rigorosos critérios rigorosos, resultando em sete artigos que atendem a todos os critérios, sendo analisados ​​qualitativamente, categorizando como terapias em mente-corpo, ocupacionais e outras, com foco na eficácia e segurança. Resultados: os resultados indicam que as terapias CAM possam melhorar a qualidade de vida dos indivíduos com TEA, a escassez de estudos robustos limita a validação científica dessas práticas. Portanto, o artigo enfatiza a necessidade de mais pesquisas para consolidar o uso dessas terapias como parte de um tratamento integrado e eficaz para pessoas com autismo, respeitando as especificidades individuais e com a orientação adequada de profissionais de saúde. Discussão: o trabalho destaca que, apesar do crescente interesse pelas terapias complementares e alternativas (CAM) no tratamento do TEA, ainda há uma escassez de estudos robustos que comprovem sua eficácia de forma conclusiva. Observa-se que muitas famílias buscam essas terapias para melhorar a qualidade de vida das crianças com TEA, especialmente como um complemento aos tratamentos convencionais e uma forma de evitar os efeitos adversos dos medicamentos. Conclusão: esta revisão bibliográfica foi realizada com intuito de destacar a crescente relevância das terapias complementares e alternativas no tratamento de indivíduos com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA). Embora o tratamento tradicional, focado em terapias convencionais como a terapia da fala, ocupacional e intervenções comportamentais, continue sendo a abordagem padrão, a busca por tratamentos complementares necessita de uma abordagem mais personalizada, sendo também uma forma de somar com o uso de medicações.
