title: Analysis of Internal Structure of the Myokinetic Psychodiagnosis - PMK

description: Abstract The aim was to investigate the internal structure of Myokinetic Psychodiagnosis using exploratory factor analysis. The sample consisted of 300 subjects, 18-61 years of both genders from the state of Minas Gerais. The six test sheets were used and the application took place in a single session. The correction was performed with the a ruler, by evaluators experienced in the use and teaching of the instrument. The results showed the presence of seven factors, only three of which were similar to the original test structure. The alpha coefficients ranged from 0.57 to 0.92. The tracings of Emotionality dimension were not grouped into a single factor. Items related to 'zigs' and 'parallel' separated the factors Tensional Dimension and Tensional Prevalence. The test original structure was not confirmed. We discussed the structural weakness and the theoretical bases of the PMK.

title: Team Performance: Evidence for Validity of a Measure

description: Abstract This study aimed to obtain validity evidences of a teamwork performance scale. Team performance was understood as a meso-level characteristic, resulting of an emerging process. Due to that understanding the proposed instrument should take that aspect into consideration. The empirical data were collected from 276 Ecuadorian teachers organized in 70 educational teams. They answered nine sentences of the scale. Results of exploratory factor analysis showed a unifactorial solution explaining 65.84% of the variance. The measure also has adequate values of reliability (Cronbach Alpha = .93). In addition to these analyses, patterns of variance within and between the groups were verified. The results showed that the variance at the individual level was small when answers of team members were analyzed and was significant when teams were compared. We consider it is important that additional studies be performed in order to identify stability of the factor solution.

title: Attitudes and Representation in Mental Health: A Study with University Students

description: Abstract This study aims to know and analyze university students' social representations on the psychiatric reform and on mentally ill people, relating them to their adhesion to attention to mental health paradigms. 480 Psychology, Medicine and Nursing university students participated in this research, most of them females (74.4%) and with average age of 24 years (SD = 5.98). Data were collected through the Scale of Attitudes in Mental Health and the Technique of Free Association of Words. Results revealed ambiguous comprehension of the psychiatric reform. University students demonstrated to know practices of this new model and presented higher adhesion to psychosocial paradigms, but a representation of the mentally ill person marked by fear and exclusion and linked to biomedical paradigm was observed. Such finding seems to reflect the present situation in the mental health field, in which the biomedical paradigm was not totally overcome nor the psychosocial paradigm totally established.

title: Single - Versus Dual-Process Models of Recognition Memory

description: Abstract Memory recognition consists in discriminating previously encountered information from novel information. Two divergent theoretical approaches pursue to provide a framework for the process of recognition. The first proposes that memory recognition is based essentially on a sense of familiarity elicited by each stimulus. The second proposes that, in addition to familiarity, the retrieval of qualitative and contextual information inherent to encoded events has an important role during recognition. Theoretical and methodological aspects from both approaches are discussed and the result of this discussion is in favor of the second theoretical approach.

title: Stressors and Perceived Social Support in Women/Mothers with Depression

description: Abstract Given the recognition of the influence of maternal depression on the family environment, this study aimed to compare and verify the possible associations between the sociodemographic profile, stressor events and social support perceived by women/mothers with recurrent depression (G1), compared to women/mothers without psychiatric disorders (G2). The participants were 100 women with biological school-age children. The women responded to the instruments: General Questionnaire, Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV, Adverse Events Scale, Chronic Adversity Scale and Semi-Structured Interview - Social Support. It was found that G1 presented significantly more stressor events and less perceived social support. In linear regression analysis, the depression was a significant condition for most of the stressful events, independent of the sociodemographic variables. However, schooling was the only condition that influenced the perceived social support. In mental health actions for women/mothers with depression, it is necessary to consider the coexistence of multiple stressor conditions and low perceived social support.

title: Social Skills Program for Adolescents in Vulnerable Social Contexts

description: Abstract The study aims at examining the process indicators and evaluating the effects of a Social Skills program in social skills, self-efficacy and social support appraisals of 10 adolescents (age 13-17 years), of communities (slums) of Rio de Janeiro. An exploratory and promotion program in health was conducted with 10 sessions and process evaluation measures and results. The evaluation process included the record of behaviors in a protocol. The participants answered, before and after the intervention, the Social Skills Inventory for Adolescents, the Self-Efficacy Scale and the Social Support Appraisals Scale. The evaluation process revealed confidence indicators between adolescents and researchers. The results showed increased levels of social skills, social support of teachers and self-efficacy. Experimental and follow-up studies should be conducted to confirm the effectiveness of the program.

title: Constructed Meanings about Socio-Educational Institutions: Between what is Imagined and what is Lived

description: Abstract This study had the purpose to understand how felon adolescents serving some socio-educational measure, understand the internment and the deprivation of freedom. The theoretical approach of Cultural-Historical Psychology was used, which conceives the person's social construction in a dialectical relationship. The photo-voice technique was the instrument used for data collection, in which they were requested to photograph what they perceive as significant. After developing those photos, there were some meetings where the adolescents could talk about the photos. The results highlight the adolescents' perception of the social judgment of the internment units and the adolescents who are part of those units. The analysis allowed us to realize that there is an attempt by these adolescents to modify the constructed meanings about these institutions and, therefore, minimize the prejudice imposed by society. This change can be one of the possible ways for the adolescent to establish a social life distant from the infraction experience.

title: Family Conflict and Parenting Practices as Predictors of Internet Addiction

description: Abstract This research aimed to analyze the predictive effect of reasons for conflict between parents and children, the interparental conflict and parenting practices for Internet addiction (IA) in young people. The sample consisted of 200 people (152 girls and 48 boys), between 15 and 24 years of age, 85.5% residing in Rio Grande do Sul and 14.5% in other states. Participants individually responded to the protocol available online. Results indicated as predictors conflicts over the internet with the father, the threat of interparental conflict, conflict over the internet with the mother and the practice of parental emotional support. Together, these variables explained 21.2% of Internet addiction. The results corroborate with international studies indicating that family variables investigated have a significant role in predicting the IA, considering that this is a complex and multifactorial phenomenon.

title: Wishes and Gratitude of Students from Private and Public Schools

description: Abstract We examined social class (measured by attendance in public or private schools), gender, and age-related variations in the expression of wishes and gratitude of 430 7- to 14-year-olds (181 male, 62.1% from public schools). Chi-square analysis indicated that students from private schools expressed significantly more social-oriented wishes and connective gratitude, whereas those from public schools expressed significantly more self-oriented wishes. Girls in the public schools expressed significantly more self-oriented wishes and verbal gratitude than did boys. Regression analysis (curve estimation) indicated that verbal gratitude, self- and social oriented wishes increased and concrete gratitude decreased significantly with age, but connective gratitude tended to increase. These findings support the idea that gratitude and wish types involve the development of cognitive aspects, such as taking others into account and thinking about the future, but it is also influenced by the social contexts in which children live, such as their social class.

title: Evaluation of Family Relationships by Aged People with Different Health and Sociodemographic Conditions

description: Abstract This study was aimed to investigate associations between the evaluations of family relationships performed by elderly people and their sociodemographic and health characteristics. 134 seniors were submitted to self-report measures of satisfaction with family relationships and family climate, sex, age and family configuration. Data were submitted to cluster analysis from which there were derived three variable groups whose differentiation was mostly determined by functional independence (R2 = 0.816) and satisfaction with family relationships (R2 = 0.642). There we observed statistically significant associations between functional independence, absence of depression and anxiety, satisfaction with family relationships, and positive evaluation towards family climate; depression and anxiety, dissatisfaction with family relationships, and negative evaluation of the family climate; functional dependence, depression and anxiety, satisfaction with family relationships and negative evaluation of the family climate, suggesting that functional dependence and emotional disturbances can be risk conditions towards family functionality.

title: Relationship between Personality Traits and Counterproductive Work Behaviors

description: Abstract Following the growing interest in identifying whether personality traits are associated with employee's inclination toward counterproductive work behavior (CWB), the objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between personality traits based on the five-factor model with CWB. Study participants were 381 workers from different socioeconomic and educational levels in public and private organizations, from two Brazilian regions. Agreeableness, conscientiousness and neuroticism factors had statistically significant associations with three CWB dimensions. Linear regression analysis revealed all five personality traits contributed to prediction of CWB dimensions. These findings are discussed in light of international literature.
