title: Organizational commitment and compliance: a study on the discriminant validity between constructs

description: The organizational commitment is one of the most investigated topics of research in the field of organizational behavior and the genesis of its importance lies in recognizing the broad explanatory power of the construct. Given the apparent overlap reported in the literature between the affective and the normative dimensions of commitment, it has been proposed the construct of organizational compliance to differentiate committed workers from obedient ones. This article aims to establish the boundaries between the constructs of organizational commitment and consent. The study consisted of a cross-sectional survey with 994 workers from different organizations and production segments. The analysis suggests evidence of discriminant validity between consent, affective commitment and normative commitment. This can be observed in the different effect size of socio demographic variables on commitment and consent and the low correlation between consent and normative base of commitment (r=240).

title: Therapeutic Cycles Model (TCM): instrument of evalution of psychotherapeutic process

description: The objective of this study was to present the Brazilian version of Therapeutic Cycles Model (TCM) from the analysis of a psychoanalytic psychotherapeutical process. TCM is a method of computer analysis of texts by identifying key-moments in the speech of the patient, therapist, or both in interaction. The analysis is performed with the software (Cycles Model), which provides word lists of emotional tone and abstractions, allowing classification of text into two categories: emotional and cognitive content of utterances in the session. We have tried to illustrate a possibility of TCM's use from a psychotherapy session. Exploratory analysis of the contents verbalized by the double patient and psychotherapist demonstrated that this instrument helps in identifying clinically significant moments in speech of the patient in individual sessions. Thus, the TCM can be a tool in comprehending psychotherapeutic processes, helping psychotherapist in practice.

title: Psychometric studies of the Eudemon Scale of Personal Well-being in adolescents

description: This study aims to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Eudemon Scale of Personal Well-being (EBP) in Brazilian adolescents. The participants were 1479 adolescents (64.7% girls) between 12 and 16 years old (M=14,12, SD=1,26). Participants answered the EBP and other instruments of well-being. The Exploratory Factor Analysis (n=712) indicated the presence of two factors and the internal consistency of the scale was adequate (α=0,767). The Confirmatory Factor Analysis (n=767) showed good fit indices of the scale with 21 items. Multigroup analyses indicated that the factor structure of the scale and the factor loadings of the items are similar for boys and girls. Significant correlations of the EBP were found with other scales that assess well-being through concurrent validation (Pearson correlations). It is possible to conclude that the instrument showed evidence of validity and it can be used with Brazilian adolescents.

title: Conformity among eyewitnesses: effect of false information on criminal reports

description: The current study investigated how misinformation presented to eyewitnesses can affect the reliability of their reports. An experiment was conducted with 54 participants, divided in two conditions. All participants watched a video of a crime scene, and then answered a questionnaire about the content of the video. In one condition participants filled the questionnaire individually and then discussed their answers with a confederate, instructed to provide misinformation to participants. After the discussion participants were required to provide a new report. In another condition participants made the whole procedure individually, without receiving any misinformation. Mistakes in the presence of the confederate were higher when compared to the condition with no confederate. Potential factors underlying the distortion of memories through conformity, as well as practical implications of the results are discussed.

title: Initial psychometric properties of Acceptance and Action Questionnaire - II - Brazilian version

description: Psychological flexibility (PF) model has extensive evidence in several countries but its research in Brazil is limited due to lack of suitable instruments. This study gathers psychometric evidence from an FP instrument, Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-II, adapted for Brazil. After translated and adapted, 1,352 college students filled it, and same subsamples also filled scales on resilience, general health, depression and anxiety. Results indicated unidimensional structure and satisfactory reliability. FP in males was superior to females and increased with aging. There was also a positive correlation with resiliency and overall health, and a negative one with depression and anxiety. Psychometric properties were satisfactory, but ought to be evaluated in diverse samples. The instrument seems suitable for use both in studying behavior change and mechanisms of therapeutic change.

title: Advanced Activities of Daily Living (AADL) and cognitive performance among older adults

description: This study aimed to investigate the association between advanced activities of daily living (AADL) and cognitive performance in a community of dwelling older adults participants of the FIBRA study in Ermelino Matarazzo, São Paulo. 302 older adults without cognitive decline, classified as very active or little active in AADLs, were assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Brief Cognitive Screening Battery (BCSB), Verbal Fluency (VF), Clock Drawing Test (CDT), and Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS). The AADLs were associated with performance in the MMSE and CDT in univariate analyses, but the association lost statistical significance in the multivariate model. The MMSE score was associated with age, education, sex and depression symptoms. The CDT score was associated with education. The association between AADLs and cognitive performance seems to be modulated by socio-demographic variables and the number of depression symptoms.

title: Interfaces between family and school bullying: an systematic revision

description: This study aimed to know and map the scientific evidence that relationships between family background and involvement in bullying situations at school through a systematic literature review. Lilacs, Web of Science were the databases that were consulted, in addition to the Scielo library. The search resulted in 54 articles published in Portuguese, English and Spanish, between 2008 and 2013, and data analysis allowed the identification of seven analytical categories: 1) structural characteristics; 2) parental practices; 3) parental styles; 4) family environment; 5) the parents feelings about their children; 6) the parents mental health; and 7) violence. The study found a predominance of international publications and quantitative studies and on the set, we found that some familiar features and aspects were associated to the involvement of students in situations of bullying. The study expands the interpretive look at the phenomenon and their complexities with a contextual approach, suggesting pathways for further research.

title: Psychological emergency and urgent care: a research and interventions overview

description: This article presents an integrative review of the literature on emergency psychological services, highlighting the major research and interventions in this area. Searches were conducted in LILACS, SciELO, PePSIC, PsycINFO and the Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations, University of São Paulo from 2000 to 2014. 47 publications were analyzed in their entirety. The profile is predominantly of qualitative, empirical studies and experience reports developed in School Psychological Services with students, supervisors and persons who are attended in the emergency service, from the phenomenological-existential scope. We emphasize the need of dialogue of these reports with theoretical knowledge in the area as well as enhanced by research. Practices can be more diverse in theory and developed within communities.

title: Psychology of emotions: an integrative proposal to understand emotional expression

description: This study conducted a literature review of the main theories about emotional functioning: jamesian, psychoevolutionary, cognitive and social. Aiming on integrating the proposals, a model was developed, consisting of cognitive aspects in the evaluation of the eliciting event leading to possible reactions (subjective impression, expressed behavior and/or physiological changes) and feedback to appraisal. This model was used as the basis for presenting characteristics of emotional expressions, and six basic emotions were discussed (joy, fear, surprise, sadness, disgust and anger) focusing on their facial and cognitive expressive aspects. It concluded that an integrative approach to the emotional phenomenon could provide important information for psychologists' work.

title: Intelligence and Creativity: Relationships and their Implications for Positive Psychology

description: There is little consensus on the relationship between intelligence and creativity. This study aimed to investigate the associations between these constructs considering the importance that creativity has for positive psychology. Two studies were conducted using two test batteries: the first with 876 children and adolescents (55% female) using the Battery for Assessment of High Abilities/Giftedness and the second with 285 adolescents (54% female) with the Battery for Assessing Intelligence and Creativity. The results were analyzed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and indicated that intelligence and figural and verbal creativity are independent factors, with little correlation between figural creativity and intelligence and a moderate relationship between verbal creativity and intelligence. In conclusion, it is necessary to evaluate both intelligence and the different types of creativity considering their contributions for identifying human potential and their influence on wellness.

title: Adaptation and Validation of the Brazilian Version of the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale

description: Engagement at work is a positive mental and dispositional state characterized by Vigor, Dedication and Concentration. The aim of this study was to adapt and get evidence of validity for the Brazilian version of the utrecht work engagement scale (UWES). Participated in the study 1167 workers between 18 and 70 years (M = 36.8, SD = 10.3) in the Brazilian regions. Studies to establish content and construct validity with the 17- item and the 9- item scales were performed. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyzes showed that the best solution is unifactorial. Internal consistency was high. Age differences in engagement were found. The results also indicate that the present version of UWES is valid for use in Brazil and reinforce the idea that engagement at work is a universal construct. Although most of the results agree with the findings reported in the literature, some cultural differences appeared and they are discussed in this paper.
