title: Implications of School Bullying Victimization in Mental Health: Qualitative Evidence

description: Abstract This study aimed to understand the impact of victimization caused by bullying on the mental health of adolescents. It is a qualitative investigation conducted with 55 students from 11 public schools in a city of Minas Gerais State, Brazil. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews and reviewed according to content analysis using Atlas TI software. A total of 19 students participating in the study reported having already suffered bullying at school. It was verified in the narratives that the victimization by bullying represents a threat to the health and mental well-being of the students, characterizing itself as a painful, daily and lasting experience in the school trajectory. Four thematic categories were identified: 1) Mental illness attributed to the aggressions suffered; 2) Negative emotions associated with school and peer relationships; 3) Impotence and passivity; and 4) distrust of weak institutional responses. The results can support interventions to promote mental health at school with victimized students.

title: Testing the Invariance of the Metacognitive Monitoring Test

description: Abstract Metacognition is predominantly measured by the self-report and think-aloud methods. This is problematic since they produce considerable both respondent and confirmatory biases, which implies damage to the measurement. The Metacognitive Monitoring Test (MMT) was created to evaluate metacognition through performance and eliminate the aforementioned biases. There is evidence of MMT convergent, divergent, structural, predictive and incremental validity. This article expands the validity studies about the MMT by analyzing the configural, metric and scalar invariance of MMT across sex, nationality, and educational level variables. The sample is composed of Brazilian and Honduran subjects, as well as 6st to 12st grades and higher education students. Results indicate configural, metric and scalar invariance for the sex variable, as well as configural invariance and metric and scalar partial invariance for nationality and educational level. It is concluded that the MMT allows comparing means of the latent variable measured in the analyzed groups.

title: Career Adaptability, Perceptions of Professional Development and Employability: A Mediation Analysis

description: Abstract The objective of this study was to test the mediating role that Perception of Professional Development has in the relationship between Career Adaptability and Perception of/Expectation of Employability among undergraduate students. A total of 1.105 students (57% of women) participated in the investigation, all from different undergraduate courses and institutions. The instruments used had evidence of validity, and data were analyzed through structural equation modeling. The results supported the research hypothesis and corroborate previous empirical studies. The model showed good fit for the data as to the hypothesized model (X2/df=0.65; CFI=0.94; TLI=0.94; RMSEA=0.05; indirect effect=0.31). The confirmation of the mediating relationship contributes to the understanding of the processes related to Perception of/Expectation of Employability among undergraduate students. Impacts on the career planning of undergraduate students and subsidies for Higher Education management are some of the practical implications of this study.

title: Self-harming adolescents: how do they perceive and explain this behavior?

description: Abstract Self-harm is a prevalent adolescence behavior, indicated as a public health problem. The objective was to understand how adolescents perceive and explain this behavior, considering family and school characteristics. It’s a multiple case study, in which five self-harming adolescents participated, enrolled in a public school in Novo Hamburgo-RS, participated in the study. They answered the following instruments: Sociodemographic Data Sheet, Semi-Structured Interview, Family Support Perception Inventory, Youth Self-Reporting and Delaware School Climate Survey-Student. Each case was individually analyzed and cross-case synthesis was performed. Self-harm was indicated as a strategy to relief suffering and regulate emotions. Low familial support, lack of skills, and presence of internalizing and externalizing problems were evidenced, as well as negative evaluation of peer relations and student engagement. When faced with a complex phenomenon, it is important to contemplate individual and relational issues in interventions.

title: Person-Organization Fit and Turnover Intentions: Organizational Trust as a Moderator

description: Abstract This study examined the relationship between person-organization fit and turnover intentions, along with the moderating effect of organizational trust. The sample consisted of 381 workers of both genders (61% female) and average age of 39.23, who answered the on-line versions of organizational values, organizational trust and turnover intention measures. The results showed that the higher the person-organization fit related to conservatism and harmony values, the lower the turnover intention. Trust in the organization’s ethical standards moderated the relationship between person-organization fit related to dominance and autonomy values and turnover intention. It was concluded that a reduced trust in the organization’s ethical standards contributes to accentuate the negative relation between person-organization fit associated with such values and turnover intention.

title: Emotional Development of Gifted Students: Comparative Study About Overexcitabilities

description: Abstract The aim of this study was to compare gifted, with academic and artistic talent, and non-gifted students regarding overexcitability, as well as to investigate the perceptions of teachers from a specialized educational program for the gifted about their students’ emotional development. The study included 150 students and six teachers. As instruments, we used participants characterization questionnaires, an overexcitability scale and a semi-structured interview script. Data were analyzed using inferential statistics and content analysis. The results indicated significant differences between gifted and non-gifted students in the patterns of intellectual and imaginative over-excitability, as well as a tendency for teachers to emotionally characterize gifted students with an emphasis on psychological disorders and weaknesses. To invest in educational strategies that use information derived from overexcitability patterns as facilitating tools for the learning process of the gifted can contribute to increasing student engagement at school, keeping them motivated.

title: Adaptation of the Parentification Questionnaire for the Brazilian Context

description: Abstract Parentification involves a role reversal phenomenon between family subsystems, including role distortions and hierarchy inversion. The purpose of this study was to adapt and search for validity evidence of the Parentification Questionnaire for the Brazilian context. After translation procedures, the authors applied the instrument in 868 adults of four geographic regions of Brazil, of which 55.4 percent were women. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses revealed the solution of three parentification factors (i.e., emotional parenting, instrumental parenting and perceived unfairness) as adequate, with satisfactory internal consistency rates, following the construct theory. As expected, the authors also found relations with other variables; for example, people who presented parentification indicators in their speeches displayed higher levels in the three factors of the construct; while women displayed higher levels of parentification than men. The Brazilian version of the instrument showed satisfactory validity evidence and appropriate reliability indicators.

title: DASS-21: assessment of psychological distress through the Bifactor Model and item analysis

description: Abstract The term distress has been used to refer to a continuous variable operationalized through symptoms of depression, anxiety, and stress. In this study, psychological distress is measured using the Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale (DASS-21). Confirmatory Factor Analysis compared the fit of different measurement models for the DASS-21, with the parameters of the items verified through the Andrich rating scale model. A non-clinical sample of 530 participants (mean age=24.35±6.55 years; 71.89% women) responded to the instrument. According to the theoretical hypothesis, the results indicated a better fit for the bifactor model, composed of three specific factors (depression, anxiety, and stress) and a general factor (general psychological distress). The assessment of the item properties allowed for a better understanding of the organization of the continuum represented by the construct psychological distress. It is possible to conclude that the Brazilian version of the DASS-21 is an adequate measure for psychological distress.

title: Psychopathy and Stress in Child and Adolescent’s Sexual Offender

description: Abstract The aim of this article was to investigate whether child and adolescent’s sexual offender (SO), with and without psychopathy, differ in relation to their ability to manage stress and distress. Thirty prisoners serving time in jail for sexual crimes against children and adolescents participated in the study, which was divided into two groups: G1 SO considered without psychopathy (N = 20; PCL-R &lt;30); and G2 SO with psychopathy (N = 10; PCL-R ≥ 30). The instruments used were: a protocol for collecting information on criminal proceedings; the Rorschach test according to the Performance Assessment System (R-PAS), considering the variables of the stress and distress domain, and the Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R). The data were analyzed using Student’s t-test and linear regression analysis. The results showed that 16% of psychopathy in SO was explained by a lower level of stress and distress.

title: Competency in study for a sample of the math and science area in the university

description: This study evaluated the perception of 126 students on the use of self-regulation strategies study. The students were the exact area of a particular isolated college in Minas Gerais, aged 17 to 48 years, and 81% were male. We used the study of Competence Scale (ECE-S & T) to assess the perceptions of students about strategic behavior of planning, monitoring and self-evaluation. Students indicated that self-regulation of their learning and study planning strategies are the most used. Women used more planning strategies than men and there was no statistically significant difference between the exact course or between different age groups. Thus concludes that although students present self-regulatory strategies, these are most often directed to the planning of the study, which reveals the need for greater use of self-assessment and monitoring strategies for a competent study.

title: Intervention in the game context: a study with Tangram

description: The aim of this article is to present ways of analyzing protocols for problem situations with Tangram game and propose procedures of observation and interpretation. The protocols collected in the context of games workshops, were produced by 40 participants, aged between nine and eleven, and analyzed in three perspectives: (a) classification of right and wrong; (B) study of solution methods and types of errors produced; (C) look for evidence of the procedures adopted by the children. The results indicated that construct parts without putting figures on the basis of instructions to perform and read assembly are a significant challenge and errors have the highest percentage (85% and 75% in buildings, 53% of the reading). These analyzes can serve as a reference to assess and to step in, contributing to broaden their professional forms of observation records in favor of achieving interventions that favor overcoming mistakes.

title: Creativity in individuals with disorders and learning disabilities: research review

description: This study aimed to characterize the national and international scientific production focused on investigating the relationship between creativity and difficulties / learning disabilities. Nationally were consulted the SCIELO databases, PEPSIC, CAPES and BDTD and internationally the APA bases, ERIC, PubMed and Scopus without delimitation of time. The results indicated the existence of 57 international and five domestic productions. The analysis found that there were no significant statistical differences between the averages of the past three decades productions; the investigations have focused mainly on the specific reading disability/Dyslexia; use of quantitative methodology; and using the Torrance Test. Some classifications given to groups investigated in most studies do not denote clearly the origins of learning disabilities, whether they were or not resulting from the learning disorder. We conclude that further studies are needed on the subject, provided there is a better characterization of the investigated groups and classifications used.
