title: Social Skills and Behavior Problems of Children under Institutional Care

description: Abstract This study conducted a characterization of the repertoire of social skills and behavioral problems of children in institutional care, which was compared to the Brazilian normative average. Participants included 36 children, of both genders, from 6 to 12 years old, and 19 caregivers as evaluators of the children’s repertoire, using the Social Skills Rating System (SSRS). The results showed that: (a) the sample of children presented scores significantly below the Brazilian average in social skills, with more than half of them classified as having deficient repertoire and lower means in social skills, both in self-assessment and in the caregiver’s evaluation; (b) the sample presented a highly compromised repertoire in behavioral problems, and the externalizing type was the most common. It discusses the importance and urgency of interventions aimed at promoting the social skills of institutionalized children, in order to prevent and overcome problems in their development.

title: The Necessary Adoptions in the Brazilian Context: Characteristics, Challenges and Visibility

description: Abstract The necessary adoptions encompass cases of children over two years of age, with siblings, disabilities, chronic or interracial illness. This study aimed to present an integrative review of the necessary adoptions and how this topic has been investigated and discussed. From a search in the databases LILACS, SciELO, PePSIC and PsycINFO (2019-2018), 35 studies were retrieved. The scarce international production may be related to the fact that the necessary adoptions are a category in the Brazilian reality. Most of the studies prioritised as necessary the adoption of children children over two years of age, with few studies on children with disabilities, sickness and siblings. Further research on interracial adoptions is recommended, as well as greater awareness of the candidates to adopt regarding the profile of children for adoption in host institutions, which should be accompanied by greater visibility of the topic in the scientific field.

title: Educational Social Skills of parents of children with and without Intellectual Disability

description: Abstract Intellectual disability (ID) affects the functioning of adaptive behavior and social skills (SS). One way to increase SS can be through parental involvement, as long as parents have sufficient educational social skills (ESS) to favor SS teaching. The objective was to evaluate and compare the ESS of parents of children with and without ID, and to investigate correlations between ESS and age, schooling of the child/parent, and socioeconomic status. Participants included a total of 52 parents of children (26 in each group). Parents responded to the ESS Inventory. The analysis identified that the higher the educational level of the children with ID, the greater the general score and the ability of parents to talk and dialogue with them. The results identified statistically significant differences (p &lt; 0.01) between the ESS repertoire of parents of children with and without ID, suggesting necessary interventions with parents of children with ID, especially for parents with a lower socioeconomic level.

title: Coparenting and Parent-Children Conflict in Adolescents Involved in Restorative Practices

description: Abstract Coparenting is defined as the relationship established between caregivers and the way they share the care for their children. The reverberations in adolescents may be associated with behavioral problems - antisocial behavior. The present study investigated the predictive effect of the dimensions of coparenting and parent-child conflict on antisocial behavior of adolescents in conflict with the law in the context of restorative practices. The survey sample included 62 adolescents linked to a project conducted by the Public Prosecution Service (MP) in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, who answered four scales. The results, based on linear regression, support that the variables - family coparental triangulation, intensity and reason for conflict with the father - are predictive of mild antisocial behavior. In severe cases, family coparental conflict had the greatest predictive power. These data highlight the need to evaluate the family-coparental relationship, in order to support protective measures that guarantee adolescent mental health, seeking their protection against risky behaviors.

title: Psychometrics properties of the Reduced Version of the Social Support Perception Scale

description: Abstract Social support is a relational process in which informational, instrumental, and affective aids are offered by groups and / or persons, capable of producing positive effects on well-being, health, and stress. The study aimed to evaluate the psychometric properties of the reduced version of the Social Support Perception Scale (SSPS) for people living in poverty contexts. Participants comprised 1113 (valid questionnaires) adults with an average age of 42.25 years (SD = 17.57), including men (29.7%) and women (70.3%), from the Brazilian states of Ceará, Amazonas, and Paraná. Reliability, factorial exploratory and confirmatory analyzes were performed. The bifactorial structure of the instrument was verified, as well as excellent reliability and internal consistency indexes. Factors presented satisfactory factor loads and items grouped differently from the original scale. Originally composed by the factors Practical Support and Emotional Support, it is proposed a new nomenclature of factors such as Cognitive-Instrumental Support and Emotional-Cooperative Support. The reduced version of the SSPS is considered suitable for use in populations living in poverty contexts.

title: Transcultural adaptation and validation of factors within absenteeism

description: Abstract The complex phenomenon known as labor absenteeism is characterized by the absence of an employee from his or her work duties. Despite the importance of this theme, given the possible impact it may have on productivity and costs of an organization, no validated instruments on labor absenteeism were found for the Brazilian population. The objective of the present work was to conduct a transcultural adaptation and validation of a labor absenteeism scale. The work consisted of two studies. The first focused on achieving a semantic adaptation of the original instrument to Brazilian Portuguese and exploratory factor analysis. In the second study a confirmatory factor analysis was performed based on the results of the first study. The results confirmed the validity of the adapted instrument, which presented itself as unifactorial, with very satisfactory precision (α = 0.91). The results are discussed based on the theoretical conceptions of the construct, the possibility of its use in diagnostic and academic research, and the limitations of the studies.

title: Emotional Responses to Reading in the First Grade - The “L.E.R. Cãofiante” Project

description: Abstract The “L.E.R. Cãofiante”* project was implemented with first-grade pupils who took part in reading sessions animated by a librarian in partnership with her dogs. The goal was to evaluate the effect of this intervention on children’s emotions regarding reading (enjoyment, anxiety, boredom). The participants were 80 children (47 in the Intervention Group (IG); 33 in the Comparison Group (CG)). Parents and teachers answered a questionnaire about children’s involvement, and the children answered one about reading emotions. For data processing, repeated measures ANOVA was used along with content analysis of the answers to the questionnaires. The results showed different emotional profiles of children in the IG and the CG, mostly regarding enjoyment, which increased in the IG. Data from parents and teachers corroborated this conclusion, emphasising positive experiences which allowed an understanding of the role of dogs in children’s enjoyment and interest in reading.

title: Multicultural Repercussions in Linguistic Development: Effectson Academic Performance

description: Abstract The objective of this work is to verify the differences in the academic performance of students in the second cycle of Early Childhood Education who belong to a multicultural context in which an official language (Castilian) and a cultural dialect (darija) coexist. The sample is made up of a total of 501 Christian and Muslim students of the third year who were given a questionnaire that assesses the degree of acquisition of the competence aspects of the areas of communication and language, social and motor. For the analysis of the data set, descriptive and contrast tests of variables were used. The results demonstrate how the mother tongue is a main factor of differentiation in all areas of academic performance in this period, highlighting the communicative dimensions. These differences have a direct relationship with the adherence of Muslims to a cultural dialect.

title: Mental Health, Cognition and Academic Performance in the 1st Year of Elementary Education

description: Abstract The study investigated 1) relationships and explanatory models of mental health indicators from cognitive abilities and 2) relationships between mental health indicators and academic performance one year later. Participants were 86 children, students of the 1st year of Elementary Education, evaluated in intelligence, inhibitory control (IC) and language. Parents and teachers completed the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). One year later, the children were re-evaluated in word recognition (WR) and arithmetic. The IC measures were related and could explain up to 21.9% of the variance in the SDQ indices completed by parents and teachers. The SDQ indices completed by teachers were related to WR and arithmetic performances, predicting up to 16.3% of the variance in school performance measures the following year. There was no IC mediation effect on the models generated. The findings suggest an interaction between specific cognitive skills, mental health indicators and academic performance.

title: Measurement Scales of Reactions to the Assessment of Graduate Programs: Evidences of Factorial Validity

description: Abstract The propose was to seek validity evidences of scales based on the model of reactions of higher education professors about the evaluation of graduate programs conducted by the Brazilian Federal Agency for Support and Evaluation of Graduate Education (Capes). The scales of satisfaction, justice perception, utility perception, and accuracy perception were applied on 814 higher education professors, being 50.36% males, with a mean age of 47.66 years (SD = 9.34). Exploratory analysis indicated reliability of the four scales (alphas ranged from .69 to .97 and omegas are from .70). These and other psychometric indicators of the scales indicate that the measures are reliable, and the reaction model was confirmed by the strong correlation between the scales.

title: Adaptive tasks: school transition from the 5th to 6th grade of elementary education

description: Abstract Within the ages of ten and thirteen years, children experience changes in elementary school. Focusing on students from public schools, the aim of this study was to investigate whether, from the 5th to 6th grade, they change indicators of performance, social skills, self-satisfaction and support network, self-concept and stress dimensions from one grade to another. A total of 379 students (212 girls), with a mean age of 10.6 years (SD = 0.91), participated at the beginning of the study. Instruments: Social Skills Assessment System; Child Stress Scale; Proof Brazil; Questionnaire for Self-Concept Evaluation; Multidimensional Scale of Life Satisfaction for Children. The results indicate a decrease in social skills, self-concept and life satisfaction; indicators of stress symptoms and academic performance increased from the 5th to 6th grade. The results are partially in agreement with previous findings of adverse effects of transition.
