Práctica Deliberada en Psicoterapia en el Programa de Psicólogo Interno Residente Español
Authors: Sánchez Rorger Pau , Serván García Ignacio
Published: July 2020

A pesar de la eficacia de la psicoterapia, existe evidencia sobre sus limitaciones y posibilidades de mejora. Atendiendo al factor del terapeuta, parece que la experiencia clínica, la supervisión tradicional y los conocimientos no son garantía de una mayor eficacia. Esto tiene implicaciones respecto al programa de Psicólogo Interno Residente (PIR) español, al basarse en estos aspectos como pilares de la formación. Se han diseñado instrumentos de monitorización del resultado de la psicoterapia que pueden incrementar su eficacia. El uso de estos métodos es relevante dentro de un contexto de práctica deliberada. Este tipo de práctica se caracteriza por el establecimiento de objetivos y el entrenamiento en habilidades que exceden el nivel actual del practicante. Dentro del campo psicoterapéutico, la práctica deliberada puede contribuir a un aumento de la eficacia del terapeuta a lo largo del tiempo. El artículo realiza una revisión de estos conceptos y propone un modelo de práctica deliberada aplicable al contexto del programa PIR español, justificando su pertinencia y enfatizando el empleo de sesiones grabadas en video junto con instrumentos de monitorización del resultado.

PRINCIPLES OF PRESERVATION OF THE CHURCH OF TRANSFIGURATION OF THE LORD IN KIZHI, THE OBJECT OF THE WORLD HERITAGE OF UNESCO
Authors: Nezvickaya T.
Published: July 2020

The restoration of wooden churches in the north of Russia is an important part of preserving the cultural heritage. State legislation regulates this activity. The subjects of this process pay attention to Russian laws, leaving international norms behind. Simultaneously, the international principles of preservation of historical wooden buildings ratified by Russia determine the areas of activity and offer criteria for evaluating decisions at different stages of activity. The regulatory document lacks a clear structuring of principles. The analysis and systematization of principles regarding wooden architecture, as more vulnerable objects, are presented in the article. The principles are developed taking into account various conservation processes: before, during restoration and after restoration. The article focuses on after restoration activities, as an important component of the conservation process, which should be developed at the design stage. An analysis of compliance with the principles and solutions of conservation issues is considered on the example of the Church of Transfiguration of the Lord in Kizhi. Its restoration is supervised by international experts from ICOMOS UNESCO and the rigorous implementation of international principles and recommendations.

Published: July 2020

The stereotype is a problem that we found when examining Michel Houllebecq's work entitled Soumission. As a form of prejudice against a particular ethnic / race or group, in this case, an Islamic group, this discourse is wrapped up in story elements. Therefore, to prove this thesis, this study is entitled "Islamic Stereotypes in Soumission by Michel Houllebecq". The aim is to describe the stereotypes of Islam that were built in the Soumission. The data collected was carried out using Albertine Minderop's characterization approach, namely: direct characterization (telling) and indirect characterization (showing), and also using the Luxembourg functional theory, connection events, and reference events by combining the concepts of Barthes sequences. The results showed that in the elements of the story, such as characters and characterizations as well as the flow of events showed Islamic stereotypes; that Islam is synonymous with terrorism, Islam legalizes polygamy, (women) Islam is fanatical about its religion, and Islam restricts women's rights.

Promising Points for Intervention in Re-Imagining Partnered Research in Health Services Comment on "Experience of Health Leadership in Partnering with University-Based Researchers in Canada – A Call to ‘Re-imagine’ Research"
Authors: Canas Eugenia , Shoemaker J. Kevin , Kothari Anita
Published: July 2020

In this commentary, we respond to Bowen and colleagues’ empirical study of research partnerships between Canadian health organizations and university-based investigators. We draw on our experiences of university and health-services partnerships to elaborate on some of the misalignments between researchers and health services leaders identified by Bowen et al. We take up Bowen and colleagues’ call to re-imagine research by proposing three promising points of intervention in research partnerships. These are: (1) orient towards research relationships rather than project-based partnerships; (2) recognize shared and diverging expectations and objectives; and (3) foster a more nuanced understanding of mutual gains.
Fostering Responsible Innovation in Health: An EvidenceInformed Assessment Tool for Innovation Stakeholders
Authors: Silva Hudson P. , Lefebvre Andrée-Anne , Oliveira Robson R. , Lehoux Pascale
Published: July 2020

Background: Responsible innovation in health (RIH) emphasizes the importance of developing technologies that are responsive to system-level challenges and support equitable and sustainable healthcare. To help decision-makers identify whether an innovation fulfills RIH requirements, we developed and validated an evidence-informed assessment tool comprised of 4 inclusion and exclusion criteria, 9 assessment attributes and a scoring system. Methods: We conducted an inter-rater reliability assessment to establish the extent to which 2 raters agree when applying the RIH Tool to a diversified sample of health innovations (n=25). Following the Tool’s 3-step process, sources of information were collected and cross-checked to ensure their clarity and relevance. Ratings were reported independently in a spreadsheet to generate the study’s database. To measure inter-rater reliability, we used: a non-adjusted index (percent agreement), a chance-adjusted index (Gwet’s AC) and the Pearson’s correlation coefficient. Results of the Tool’s application to the whole sample of innovations are summarized through descriptive statistics. Results: Our findings show complete agreement for the screening criteria, "almost perfect" agreement for 7 assessment attributes, "substantial" agreement for 2 attributes and "almost perfect" agreement for the RIH overall score. A large portion of the sample obtained high scores for 6 attributes (health relevance, health inequalities, responsiveness, level and intensity of care and frugality) and low scores for 3 attributes (ethical, legal, and social issues [ELSIs], inclusiveness and eco-responsibility). At the rating step, 88% of the innovations had a sufficient number of attributes documented (≥ 7/9), but the assessment was based on sources of moderate to high quality (mean score ≥ 2 points) for 36% of the sample. While "Almost all RIH features" were present for 24% of the innovations (RIH mean score between 4.1-5.0 points), "Many RIH features" were present for 52% of the sample (3.1-4.0 points) and "Few RIH features" were present for 24% of the innovations (2.1-3.0 points). Conclusion: By confirming key aspects of the RIH Tool’s reliability and applicability, our study brings its development to completion. It can be jointly put into action by innovation stakeholders who want to foster innovations with greater social, economic and environmental value.
Effects of Activity-Based Hospital Payments in Israel: A Qualitative Evaluation Focusing on the Perspectives of Hospital Managers and Physicians
Authors: Waitzberg Ruth , Quentin Wilm , Daniels Elad , Pald Yael , Busse Reinhard , Greenberg Dan
Published: July 2020

Background: Since 2010, Israel has expanded the adoption of procedure-related group (PRG) based payments for hospitals. While there is a rich quantitative literature that assesses the effects of payment reforms on efficiency or quality of care, very few qualitative studies have focused on the impacts of diagnosis-related group (DRG)-like payments on hospitals from the perspective of hospital workers as change agents. Methods: We used a qualitative, thematic analysis based on 33 semi-structured in-depth interviews with chief executive officers (CEOs), chief financial officers (CFOs), ward directors and physicians conducted in five public hospitals in Israel, sampled by maximum variation according to hospital characteristics. Results: Interviewees reported that the payment reform led to organizational changes such as increased transparency and enhanced supervision. Interviewees also reported several actions in response to the economic incentives of PRGbased payment. These included (1) shifting activities to afterhours and using operating rooms (ORs) more efficiently to enable increased surgical volumes; (2) reducing costs by shortening lengths of stay and increasing cost-consciousness in procurement; and (3) increasing revenues by improving coding and selecting procedures. Moderating factors reduced the effects of the reform. For example, organizational factors such as the public nature of hospitals or the (un)availability of healthcare resources did not always allow hospitals to increase the number of cases treated. Also, conflicting incentives such as multiple payment mechanisms or underpricing of procedures blurred the incentives of the reform. Finally, managers and physicians have many other considerations that outweigh the economic ones. Conclusion: PRG payments affected the organizational dynamics of hospitals and changed decision-making about admission and treatment policies. However, such effects were moderated by many other factors that should be considered when shaping and analyzing hospital payment reforms.
Conceptualizing the Organization of Surgical Services Comment on "Decentralization and Regionalization of Surgical Care: A Review of Evidence for the Optimal Distribution of Surgical Services in Low- and Middle-Income Countries"
Authors: Kreindler Sara A.
Published: July 2020

According to Iverson and colleagues’ thoughtful analysis, decisions to decentralize or regionalize surgical services must take into account contextual realities that may impede the safe execution of certain delivery models in lowand middle-income countries (LMICs), and should be governed by procedure-related considerations (specifically, volume, patient acuity, and procedure complexity). This commentary suggests that, by shifting attention to the mechanisms whereby (de)centralization may exert beneficial impacts, it is possible to generate guidance applicable to countries across the socioeconomic spectrum. Four key mechanisms can be identified: decentralization (1) minimizes the need for patients to travel for care and, (2) obviates certain system-induced delays once patients present; centralization (3) facilitates the maintenance of a workforce with sufficient expertise to offer services safely, and (4) conserves resources by limiting the number of sites. The commentary elucidates how context- and procedurerelated factors determine the importance of each mechanism, allowing planners to prioritize among them. Although some context factors have special relevance to LMICs, most can also appear in high-income countries (HICs), and the procedure-related factors are universal. Thus, evidence from countries at all income levels might be fruitfully combined into an integrated body of context-sensitive guidance.
"It Depends on What They Experience in Each Health Facility. Some Are Satisfied, Others Are Not." A MixedMethods Exploration of Health Workers’ Attitudes Towards Performance-Based Financing in Burkina Faso
Authors: Lohmann Julia , Koulidiati Jean-Louis , Somda Serge MA , De Allegri Manuela
Published: July 2020

Background: Evidence emerging from qualitative studies suggests the existence of substantial variation in how health workers experience performance-based financing (PBF) within the same setting. To date, however, no study has quantified or systematically explored this within-setting heterogeneity. Considering that differences in health workers’ affective reactions to PBF likely constitute an important element mediating the effectiveness of PBF in improving health service delivery, systematic and tangible information will be highly valuable to policy-makers and program managers who aim to maximize positive impacts of PBF. Our study aimed at contributing to filling this gap in knowledge by quantifying health workers’ knowledge of, satisfaction with, and perceptions of PBF in Burkina Faso, and exploring factors associated with heterogeneity therein. Methods: The study employed a post-intervention cross-sectional explanatory mixed methods study design with a dominant quantitative component – a structured survey to a total of 1314 health workers from 396 intervention health facilities – and a small and focused qualitative component – key informant interviews with 5 program managers – to triangulate and further elucidate the quantitative findings. Quantitative data were analyzed descriptively as well as using 3-level mixed-effects models. Qualitative data were analyzed in a largely deductive process along the quantitative variables and results. Results: Health workers were on average moderately satisfied with PBF overall, with a slight tendency towards the positive and large variation between individuals. Two-thirds of health workers did not have adequate basic knowledge of key PBF elements. Perceived fairness of the performance evaluation process, of the bonus distribution process, and satisfaction with the individual financial bonuses varied dramatically between respondents. Factors associated with heterogeneity in knowledge, satisfaction, and fairness perceptions included responsibility at the facility, general work attitudes, management factors, and training in and length of exposure to PBF. Conclusion: Findings imply that investments into staff training on PBF and manager training on organizational change processes might be beneficial to positive staff attitudes towards PBF, which in turn would likely contribute to improving the effectiveness of PBF.
The Dutch Citizen Forum on Public Reimbursement of Healthcare: A Qualitative Analysis of Opinion Change
Authors: Jansen Maarten , Baltussen Rob , Bijlmakers Leon , Tummers Marcia
Published: July 2020

Background: A deliberative Citizen Forum ‘Choices in healthcare’ was held in the Netherlands to obtain insight into the criteria informed citizens would propose for the public reimbursement of healthcare. During 3 weekends, 24 citizens participated in evidence-informed deliberation on the basis of 8 case studies. The aim of this study was to assess how the opinions of 8 participants in the deliberative Citizens Forum changed and if so, why participants themselves believe their opinions have changed, whether participation influenced their perceived reasonableness of other participants in the forum and whether it influenced their opinions about involvement of citizens in decision-making. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were held with 8 participants before and after their participation in the Citizen Forum. Using the method of reconstructing interpretive frames opinions about the public reimbursement of healthcare were reconstructed. Results: Participants’ opinions changed over time; they became more aware of the complexity of decision-making and came to accept that there are limits to the available resources and accept cost as a criterion for reimbursement decisionmaking. Participants report that exchanging arguments and personal experiences with other participants made them change their initial opinions. Participants ascribed increases in the perceived reasonableness of other participants’ opinions to feelings of group-bonding and becoming more familiar with each other’s personal circumstances. Participants further believe that citizens represent an additional opinion to that of other stakeholders and believe their opinions should be considered in relation to those of other stakeholders, given they are provided with opportunities for critical discussion. Conclusion: Organized deliberation should allow for the exchange of arguments and the sharing of personal experiences which is linked to learning. On the one hand this is reflected in the uptake of new arguments and on the other hand in the revision, specification or expansion of personal argumentation. Providing opportunities for critical deliberation is key to prevent citizens from adhering to initial emotional reactions that remain unchallenged and which may no longer be supported after deliberation.
Using Open Public Meetings and Elections to Promote Inward Transparency and Accountability: Lessons From Zambia
Authors: Vian Taryn , Fong Rachel M. , Kaiser Jeanette L. , Bwalya Misheck , Sakanga Viviane I.R. , Ngoma Thandiwe , Scott Nancy A.
Published: July 2020

Background: Community-led governance can ensure that leaders are accountable to the populations they serve and strengthen health systems for maternal care. A key aspect of democratic accountability is electing respective governance bodies, in this case community boards, and holding public meetings to inform community members about actions taken on their behalf. After helping build and open 10 maternity waiting homes (MWHs) in rural Zambia as part of a randomized controlled trial, we assisted community governance committees to plan and execute annual meetings to present performance results and, where needed, to elect new board members. Methods: We applied a principally qualitative design using observation and analysis of written documentation of public meetings to answer our research question: how do governance committees enact inward transparency and demonstrate accountability to their communities. The analysis measured participation and stakeholder representation at public meetings, the types and purposes of accountability sought by community members as evidenced by questions asked of the governance committee, and responsiveness of the governance committee to issues raised at public meetings. Results: Public meetings were attended by 6 out of 7 possible stakeholder groups, and reports were generally transparent. Stakeholders asked probing questions focused mainly on financial performance. Governance committee members were responsive to questions raised by participants, with 59% of answers rated as fully or mostly responsive (showing understanding of and answering the question). Six of the 10 sites held elections to re-elect or replace governance committee members. Only 2 sites reached the target set by local stakeholder committees of 50% female membership, down from 3 at formation. To further improve transparency and accountability, community governance committees need to engage in advance preparation of reports, and should consult with stakeholders on broader measures for performance assessment. Despite receiving training, community-level governance committees lacked understanding of the strategic purpose of open public meetings and elections, and how these relate to democratic accountability. They were therefore not motivated to engage in tactics to manage stakeholders effectively. Conclusion: While open meetings and elections have potential to enhance good governance at the community level, continuous training and mentoring are needed to build capacity and enhance sustainability.
Hospital Expenditure at the End-of-Life: A Time-to-Death Approach
Authors: Alipour Vahid , Pourreza Abolghasem , Kosheshi Majid , Heydari Hassan , Emamgholipour Sefiddashti Sara
Published: July 2020

Background: In recent years the use of time to death (TTD) variables in the modeling of individual health expenditures has been of interest to health economics researchers. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of age and TTD on hospital inpatient expenditure (HIE). Methods: We used a claims database from Iran Health Insurance Organization of Tehran city that includes considerable proportion of Tehran residents and contains information on insured individuals’ HIE. We included HIE of all insured decedents (30 to 90 years old) who died during March 2013 and March 2014 (n=1018). No sampling was required. According to the decedents’ date of death, we extracted their last 24 months HIE. The period of time March 30, 2011 until March 30, 2014 (3 years) was used to guarantee a full 24 months of observations for decedents. A two-part econometric model was employed to investigate the effect of age, TTD, and some demographic variables on probability and conditional amount of individuals’ hospital expenditure. Stata software (version 16.0) was used for data processing and analysis. Results: Our results demonstrated that the month-based TTDs especially near months before death of decedents (TTD1 to TTD10) significantly affected both probability and conditional amount of HIE. One month before death incurred more HIE than the rest of the months. A further interesting finding is that after including TTD, age variable as a conditional driver of HIE loses its direct effect on decedents’ HIE, but age TTD interaction effect on HIE is still positive and statistically significant. Conclusion: The results confirm that TTD as a proxy of mortality indicator has a considerable effect on decedents’ HIE. The age variable has not directly affected decedents’ HIE but indirectly and through its interaction with TTD has a statistically significant effect on HIE. In addition to age, policy-makers should consider TTD to make better predictions of future HIE.

Published: July 2020

Health is a human right. Its accessibility and affordability have to be ensured. Health insurance provides an affordable way for the insured and his family to stay healthy and get medical care when an emergency health issue situation arises. The escalating cost of medical treatment is beyond the reach of the common man. Mediclaim or medical insurance is one of the most recent forms of insurance. Today with expensive treatment costs, even a mere health check-up has become unaffordable for many. It can extract a major amount of savings in just a few days or hours. But under the shelter of a medical insurance plan, the person can get relieved from this tension. As medical insurance policy offers to reimburse a pre-defined percentage of expenses incurred such as doctors consultation fees, pathological tests, x-ray, hospitalization, medicine, follow-ups, etc., The main purpose behind purchasing a health cover by the insured is to avail of quality health treatment without any burden of medical bills. A facility like cashless hospitalization entitles the insured to avail of the treatment on a cashless basis. Insured perception depends on the quality of service and products offered by the insurer according to the insured need. The purpose of this research is to study the level of satisfaction of the insured regarding the mediclaim policy in Madurai city. The research has been carried out to understand the cost of insured dissatisfaction and to determine the areas where the insurer needs to focus and strengthen its customer relationship. Therefore, an attempt has been made to study the perception of the insured regarding the mediclaim policy in Madurai city.

A partir de perfiles gravimétricos, observaciones aéreas y apoyo de fotografía areal, se realizó una cubicación de las masas de hielo de los glaciales más relevantes que componen el edificio volcánico Callaqui, ubicado en la región del Bio-Bio, cuyas coordenadas geográficas son: 37° 55’ 20” S y 71° 26’ 50” O, Chile. Ante una posible erupción del volcán Callaqui, las masas de hielo calculadas fluirían por diferentes quebradas y ríos, ocasionando gravísimos daños en las centrales hidroeléctricas de Pangue y Ralco pertenecientes al complejo hidroeléctrico del río Bio-Bio. Siendo las centrales hidroeléctricas las inversiones materiales de más alto costo que se verían afectadas (US$2,346x106), no menos importante es la pérdida de vidas humanas, junto a sus hogares, producción agrícola y otras obras menores difíciles de cuantificar. El volumen total de hielo en los glaciares del volcán Callaqui que podrían fun- dirse en una posible erupción durante la temporada invernal es de 0.424168km3 equivalentes a un volumen de agua de 0.339334km3 el que se vería incrementado por la cubierta nival variable año a año, pudiendo ser de hasta tres metros, Araneda y Avendaño (1983), Araneda (1984). Las densidades para calcular volúmenes de hielo y nieve, han sido estimadas en 0.8gr/cm3 y 0.25gr/cm3 respectivamente. Finalmente se recomienda un sistema de monitoreo mediante una red sísmica telemétrica de cuatro estaciones junto a una red de inclinómetros y red geodésica para el control de movimientos verticales y desplazamientos horizontales.
¿Cuidar en la universidad?
Authors: Mattioni Mara
Published: July 2020

Considerando la diversidad de modos de asumir el trabajo docente, el artículo se propone reconstruir trayectorias profesionales a partir de entrevistas biográficas a docentes de la UNPaz, estableciendo un especial detenimiento en su ingreso a la universidad como como un punto de inflexión dentro de cada biografía dando lugar a disímiles modos de asumir, vivenciar y pensar el trabajo docente.

Teniendo en consideración investigaciones previas, la posibilidad de analizar bifurcaciones en el curso de la vida profesional de docentes universitarios se transforma en una oportunidad para comprender relaciones atravesadas por el cuidado entendida como una categoría sugerente vinculada al trabajo docente que apuesta otras formas de desarrollo profesional en el ejercicio del trabajo docente dentro de un campo de confluencias donde las prácticas de la enseñanza, la investigación y la gestión se presentan como aristas constitutivas y complementarias de la categoría de trabajo docente.

En la investigación que realicé para mi tesis de doctorado se analizan las bases y el desarrollo de políticas de salud en un marco de post-crisis (2002-2007) en Argentina. Me propuse estudiar las relaciones entre la gestión y la movilización de recursos y la formulación e implementación correspondiente al proceso de políticas públicas de salud a partir de dos casos: el Programa Remediar (en adelante, PR) y la Estrategia Municipios y Comunidades Saludables (en adelante, EMyCS).
Gulibarko aldaeraren inguruan (1 -Gulibar bereko azpialdaera)
Authors: Artola Koldo
Published: July 2020

RESUMEN Cuando el vascófilo Louis-Lucien Bonaparte estableció su clasificación de las hablas vascas, allí, en algún lugar del Pirineo navarro, designó al conjunto de variedades de más allá de Pamplona como subdialecto ultra-pamplonés, formado por las variedades de Cizur, Olza y esta de Gulina. Todo ello, como se ha recordado reiteradas veces, dentro del dialecto alto navarro meridional. A esta entrega, tal como se indica en el subtítulo de la misma, aportamos textos recogidos en el mismo valle que da nombre a la subvariedad. LABURPENA Louis-Lucien Bonaparte printzeak, euskara sailkatzeko bere ahaleginean, nafar Pirinioko bere talaiatik so eginez nonbait, Iruñez haraindiko multzo handi bati ‘aldaera’ gisako kategoria iritzi eta subdialecto ultra-pamplonés gisako deitura eman zion, honen barruan Guliko hau, Oltzako eta Zizurko aldaerak kokatuz, hau guztia, jakina denez, Hegoaldeko goi-nafarrera ere deitu zuen euskalkiaren barruan. Lan honetara, azpitituluan aipatzen denez, aldaerari dagokion izen bereko azpialdaerarekin zerikusia izanik, duela hogeita hamar urte inguru bildu genituen testu batzuk ekarri ditugu. ABSTRACT When the Basquephile Louis-Lucien Bonaparte made his classification of the Basque language, there, somewhere in the Navarrese Pyrenees, he designated the set of varieties beyond Pamplona as the ultra-pamplonés subdialect, covering the Cizur and Olza varieties, and this one from Gulina, all, as repeatedly pointed out, within the southern upper Navarrese dialect. As indicated in the subtitle, this paper offers texts collected from the valley which lends its name to this sub-variety.
Estereótipos de gênero e apelos retóricos no design gráfico: um modelo de análise
Authors: Rati Bianca Mendes , Beccari Marcos Namba
Published: July 2020

Este artigo, baseado no trabalho de conclusão de curso homônimo, discorre a respeito das questões relacionadas a gênero em nossa sociedade, bem como sobre qual a relação do design gráfico com essas questões. Delineia-se o design como manifestação da linguagem que utiliza artifícios retóricos como ethos, logos e pathos em sua concepção para transmitir conceitos e se comunicar. Propõe-se então um modelo de análise com o objetivo de verificar as estratégias retóricas visuais utilizadas em peças de design gráfico que tenham recorte de gênero, e como elas traduzem ou não estereótipos da categoria que representam – no caso deste trabalho, focou-se nas peças voltadas ao público feminino.
Diseño estratégico para la innovación social y la sostenibilidad
Authors: Franzato Carlo
Published: July 2020

El discurso del diseño sostenible ha expresado la importancia de procesos proyectuales cada vez más estratégicos para su efectividad. La progresiva comprensión de la insostenibilidad de nuestros modelos de desarrollo lleva a que los expertos busquen innovaciones sociales sistémicas. Para el desarrollo de innovaciones de ese tipo son necesarios aportes metodológicos del diseño estratégico. Este artículo tiene como objetivo discutir esa problemática, que vincula estrechamente innovación social y sostenibilidad, e identificar las principales contribuciones del diseño estratégico. Para ello, realiza una revisión de los conceptos y de las relaciones entre el diseño y la sostenibilidad, y profundiza la labor de la DESIS, red de laboratorios de diseño para la innovación social y la sostenibilidad. En este recorrido, se identifican los principales aportes del diseño estratégico para la consecución de la sostenibilidad, finalmente discutidas a la luz de las teorías de la complejidad que inspiran esta vertiente metodológica. Además, el artículo elabora el concepto de ‘sostenibilidad proyectual’, sugiriendo que la sostenibilidad pueda considerarse constitutiva del proceso proyectual y no sólo su fin último.
A design science nas pesquisas em design no Brasil
Authors: Perez Iana Uliana , Moura Mônica , Medola Fausto Orsi
Published: July 2020

Este artigo apresenta a abordagem da design science como alternativa para as investigações em design e nas ciências sociais aplicadas em geral. Para a sua redação, foi empreendida Revisão Bibliográfica Sistemática no Catálogo de Teses e Dissertações da Capes, verificando-se a incidência dos termos “design science” e “action design research”. O levantamento permitiu a identificação de 14 teses e dissertações em design que adotaram métodos próprios da design science, como Design Science Research (DSR) e Action Design Research (ADR). Para caracterizar esses métodos, é apresentada análise comparativa das pesquisas de três teses que adotaram a DSR; também é relatada a experiência de realização de uma pesquisa de mestrado que utilizou a ADR. A discussão ressalta as contribuições desses métodos e os aspectos que precisam ser aprimorados para sua operacionalização.
O que é o Design de Interiores?
Authors: Barbosa Paula Glória , Rezende Edson José Carpintero
Published: July 2020

Apesar das substanciais mudanças verificadas ao longo do século XX – que implicaram muito mais do que mera alteração terminológica (de Decoração para Design de Interiores), havendo, de fato, profissionalização da atividade e ampliação do campo de atuação e das responsabilidades profissionais –, a sociedade, de um modo geral, ainda associa a figura do designer de interiores à imagem do decorador de interiores. Ao mesmo tempo, não é incomum encontrar professores, estudantes e profissionais da área que não compreendem o Design de Interiores. Neste trabalho, a partir da análise de definições compartilhadas por associações de classe e estudiosos da área, buscou-se construir uma definição de Design de Interiores. Os resultados apontam para uma divergência no entendimento da abrangência de atuação do designer de interiores e fornecem base para a elaboração de uma definição que considera o ambiente como seu objeto de trabalho.
