Seis conversas com a adolescência : Promover o desenvolvimento de competências facilitadoras da gestão e expressão das emoções, comunicação e relacionamento interpessoal num grupo de jovens na fase inicial da adolescência (entre os 12 e os 14 anos)

O projeto “Seis Conversas com a Adolescência” traduziu-se na concretização de um conjunto de ações com o objetivo de desenvolver competências pessoais e sociais facilitadoras da gestão e expressão de emoções, comunicação interpessoal e assertividade e relacionamento interpessoal de um grupo de jovens do sexo feminino na fase inicial da adolescência (entre os 12 e os 14 anos), que propiciou um acompanhamento de maior proximidade ao grupo. Como refere Hall (1904, cit. in Silva, 2004, p. 23) “nenhuma idade é tão sensível (…). Não há um único solo em que as sementes, tanto as boas como as más, atinjam raízes tão profundas, cresçam de forma tão viçosa ou produzam frutos com tanta rapidez e regularidade.” A revisão de literatura que sustentou teoricamente o projeto locomoveu-se em torno da temática da adolescência. A intensa pesquisa de programas de competências pessoais e sociais em adolescentes assumiu especial relevância na concretização deste ambicioso projeto. A nível metodológico o projeto configura uma investigação-ação, tendo partido de um diagnóstico da população e a partir do qual se definiu um plano de ação que espelha a dimensão prática da intervenção, sustentado por objetivos, temas e domínios a tratar, metodologias/estratégias, recursos e avaliação. Partindo do pressuposto que as competências não se adquirem, mas desenvolvem-se, o projeto Seis Conversas com a Adolescência permitiu a reflexão e análise sobre os domínios propostos, conducentes a uma mudança de pensamentos e atitudes, ainda que os comportamentos do grupo sejam compreendidos face às tarefas psicológicas, normativas e desenvolvimentais do período da adolescência.

Relacionamento Interpessoal entre Compradores e Vendedores: Troca de Atendimento em Vendas e o Impacto na Continuidade das Relações Comerciais.

In a highly competitive environment, the ability to retain a substantial customer base represents a tremendous competitive advantage, therefore this transaction-based emphasis in sales is increasingly being replaced by relationally focused approach. Although existing sales literature is in agreement to the theoretical composition of buyer-seller relationships, a lack of empirical evidence exists for the interrelationships of various aspects of relational selling on individual salesperson¿s performance. This paper explores the impact of interpersonal relationships on customer satisfaction and loyalty towards the firm. Based on a review of different streams of research, the paper contributes to the existing theories using a case analysis of customer behavior when there is salesperson turnover. Much of the relationship with the company comes from trust in the salesperson, which is built up through the development of the relationship. The existence of a friendship interpersonal relationship with a salesperson also increases the customer willingness to follow him in case he leaves the company, thus possibly switching to another service provider. Utilizing a case analysis method this paper has the objective to find evidences that could prove the positive or negative impact of the salesperson¿s turnover in the organizations. Finally, the paper discusses managerial implications and directions for future research.

Efeitos de um treinamento das dimensões responsivas do modelo de relação de ajuda de Carkhuff no relacionamento interpessoal de atendentes de berçario em uma creche

O objetivo do estudo foi verificar o efeito de um treinamento das dimensões responsivas do Modelo de Relação de Ajuda de Carkhuff em um grupo de atendentes de berçário de uma creche. A amostra constou de oito atendentes de berçário, um exercício na Creche-Escola-Maternal-IBGE, localizada no Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Os resultados obtidos confirmaram a hipótese geral que predizia haver ganhos nas dimensões de relacionamento interpessoal das atendentes submetidas ao treinamento das Dimensões Responsivas do Modelo de Relação de Ajuda de Carkhuff . Deste modo, estes resultados vieram corroborar com Carkhuff (1969), quando afirma que as dimensões facilitadoras, presentes em qualquer relacionamento humano, podem ser aprendidas e aperfeiçoadas.

O Compartilhamento do conhecimento nas organizações: um estudo desconstrucionista

Organizations have shown a speech focused on Knowledge Management and share of knowledge that reveal the relevance of both the age of knowledge and the capture and transference of individual and colective knowledge. Due to its continued repetition, the speech has been legitimated, not establishing, however, what can be shared, which methods shall provide it and which personal and corporate reasons can stimulate sharing the knowledge. This speech tries to convince that the implementation depends exclusively on the actions promoted by the firm. It also admits the presence of necessary environment conditions to make share of knowledge possible. The speech makes one believe that individuals and teams, formal or informal, are prepared and desire to share their knowledge, not considering feelings, wishes or availability to do so. The research has revealed the difficulty of sharing knowledge within service companies, which are strongly results oriented, due to the competition among employees in order to catch better jobs, the fight to retain power and the lack of time to develop daily tasks. Such organizations prevent people from the desire and the availability to share knowledge.

As competências transversais e as práticas de gestão por competências: um estudo exploratório de diferentes realidades organizacionais

Ao profissional de hoje é exigido o domínio de competências que transcendem a sua própria função, área ou nível de qualificação, colocando-se assim às empresas o desafio de identificar e desenvolver as referidas competências, a partir de uma gestão de recursos humanos (GRH) que tenha por base as competências, seja ela uma gestão mais ou menos formalizada. A gestão por competências permite uma gestão estratégica, integrada e coerente dos processos de GRH, na medida em que poderá ser transversal a todos os seus subsistemas e acontece de forma articulada com os objetivos globais do negócio. Neste contexto, emerge a investigação que se segue, um estudo exploratório, de cariz qualitativo que tem como objetivos compreender em profundidade a realidade de diversas empresas em termos de competências transversais valorizadas e as suas práticas de gestão de recursos humanos baseadas em competências. Entrevistamos dez gestores de recursos humanos e administradores de empresas, com um número diferenciado de trabalhadores, representando assim as micro, peque- nas, médias e grandes empresas do norte de Portugal. Concluímos que as competências transversais mais valorizadas pelas empresas são a flexibilidade, relacionamento interpessoal, adaptação à mudança e trabalho em equipa. Esta investigação permitiu ainda compreender que a presença das competências na GRH é caracterizada por uma forte informalidade. Nesta informalidade, as competências transversais estão presentes na contratação, na retenção e nos planos de desenvolvimento, sendo menos frequente a sua utilização em práticas como a gestão e avaliação de desempenho, gestão de carreiras e gestão de benefícios e recompensas. Estes resultados representam vantagens para a produção científica e para as empre- sas, sistemas de ensino, profissionais e estudantes, não só pela importância que as competências e as competências transversais assumem no mercado de hoje e porque fornecem dados atualizados e pistas para investigações futuras.

Análise da relação interpessoal do grupo informal “Malta sempri djunto” - Estudo de caso: Caixa Económica de Cabo Verde

O presente trabalho insere-se no âmbito do trabalho de fim de curso de Bacharelato em Psicologia na Universidade Jean Piaget de Cabo Verde. O seu objectivo é analisar o relacionamento interpessoal existente entre os membros do grupo informal “Malta sempri djunto” na Caixa Económica de Cabo Verde (CECV). É sabido que hoje os grupos, sobretudo os informais, assumem cada vez mais uma maior importância na vida das organizações. Neste contexto, constitui tarefa de qualquer responsável, conhecer os seus colaboradores, os processos de grupos, a cultura organizacional e o modo que estes processos e pessoas interagem entre si. Estes aspectos têm fortes impactos no sucesso de qualquer organização. A CECV é uma instituição financeira cabo-verdiana que conta com mais de duas centenas de colaboradores. O grupo informal “Malta sempri djunto” surgiu em 2003 e é constituído por cerca de 32 colaboradores da CECV, que por motivos vários se identificam uns com os outros quer na vivência dos mesmos problemas que os afectam, quer na vontade de realizar certas actividades fora do horário normal de trabalho, quer na procura de soluções de problemas provenientes de situações ligados ao trabalho.

Impactos emocionais causados pela mudança de estilo de gestão em um hospital na cidade de São Luis-MA

The objective of this study is to identify how a health institution can minimize the emotional impacts caused by the change of a style of classic management for a participative administration, that the workers and controllers can see the institution as a dynamic organization, that must be faced as an alive system, mobile and adaptable, where they is beings that have the right to react and to answer to the stimulatons. For that, the institution can handle motivator¿s instruments that develop in the people the potential to react of adequate way to the changes proposals, as well as increasing the perspective of possible technological improvements and interpersonal relationship between the internal and external customers. To change the style to manage, to hear the staff of support and user, are not part of the routine of the heads that develop classic management. This decision demands adaptation and flexibility, study, update and psychological preparation, to face common feelings to the new. It fits to the new directors, to visualize these feelings and work to minimize, avoiding future upheavals and the confrontation of situations that can harm the production of the company, as well as the quality of the communication between the diverse dimensions of the organization people. In this study case, based in phenomenological methodology, was possible to verify, through half-open interviews and comments, how was faced the feelings caused at the old direction time, composed for military who withheld the power and determined the actions of the hospital in study, was replaced by health professionals, that saw in the work team the best option to solve the problems and the potential to carry through an administration based in adequate strategies the reality of the moment, with the objective of reaching the satisfaction of the customer. Through this work, is possible to prove the theory that the changes cause impacts that affect the behavior of the people involved and cause stress, as well as conclude that despite the new direction show themselves, during the change, much made use to make right and involve all the workers, didn¿t have traced strategies to minimize the emotional impacts caused by the changes, what made all face their feelings of doubts and anxiety without no special care. Many obtained, by themselves, to face and to adapt the new proposals, but some could not assimilate the new administrative methodology and had been moved away definitively from the institution.

A confiança interorganizacional nas compras

This research is part of the field of organizational studies, focusing on organizational purchase behavior and, specifically, trust interorganizational at the purchases. This topic is current and relevant by addressing the development of good relations between buyer-supplier that increases the exchange of information, increases the length of relationship, reduces the hierarchical controls and improves performance. Furthermore, although there is a vast literature on trust, the scientific work that deal specifically at the trust interorganizational still need further research to synthesize and validate the variables that generate this phenomenon. In this sense, this investigation is to explain the antecedents of trust interorganizational by the relationship between the variable operational performance, organizational characteristics, shared values and interpersonal relationships on purchases by manufacturing industries, in order to develop a robust literature, most consensual, that includes the current sociological and economic, considering the effect of interpersonal relationships in this phenomenon. This proposal is configured in a new vision of the antecedents of interorganizational trust, described as significant quantitative from models Morgan and Hunt (1994), Doney and Cannon (1997), Zhao and Cavusgil (2006) and Nyaga, Whipple, Lynch (2011), as well as qualitative analysis of Tacconi et al. (2011). With regard to methodological aspects, the study assumes the form of a descriptive, survey type, and causal trace theoretical and empirical. As for his nature, the investigation, explicative character, has developed a quantitative approach with the use of exploratory factor analysis and structural equation modeling SEM, with the use of IBM software SPSS Amos 18.0, using the method of maximum verisimilitude, and supported by technical bootstraping. The unit of analysis was the buyer-supplier relationship, in which the object under investigation was the supplier organization in view of the purchasing company. 237 valid questionnaires were collected among key informants, using a simple random sampling developed in manufacturing industries (SIC 10-33), located in the city of Natal and in the region of Natal. The first results of descriptive analysis demonstrate the phenomenon of interorganizational trust, in which purchasing firms believe, feel secure about the supplier. This demonstration showed high levels of intensity, predominantly among the vendors that supply the company with materials that are used directly in the production process. The exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis, performed on each variable alone, generated a set of observable and unobservable variables more consistent, giving rise to a model, that needed to be further specified. This again specify model consists of trajectories was positive, with a good fit, with a composite reliability and variance extracted satisfactory, and demonstrates convergent and discriminant validity, in which the factor loadings are significant and strong explanatory power. Given the findings that reinforce the model again specify data, suggesting a high probability that this model may be more suited for the study population, the results support the explanation that interorganizational trust depends on purchases directly from interpersonal relationships, sharing value and operating performance and indirectly of personal relationships, social networks, organizational characteristics, physical and relational aspect of performance. It is concluded that this trust can be explained by a set of interactions between these three determinants, where the focus is on interpersonal relationships, with the largest path coefficient for the factor under study

Violência institucional no âmbito da saúde reprodutiva : a percepção de mulheres usuárias do SUS, na cidade de Natal/RN

Institutional violence ranges from the most widespread lack of access to the poor quality of services provided. It includes abuses committed by virtue of the unequal power between patients and professionals within institutions. The aim of this study was to analyze the perception of women with regard to this type of violence, in the services offered at a reproductive health facility belonging to the National Health System (SUS) in Natal, Brazil. Interdisciplinary perspective is important, in that it provides interaction and complementarity between various disciplines, favoring, in an integrated way, a thematic approach in research activities, teaching and extension, involving professionals, students and researchers in medicine, social services, psychology, nursing, anthropology and physical therapy. A quantitative/qualitative approach was used, involving a sample of 401 women, as part of a transversal observational study. In the qualitative stage, which consisted of participatory observation and semi-structured interviews, we used an intentional sample of 10 individuals. The data were analyzed using logistic regression techniques, correspondence analysis and categorical thematic content analysis, showing that the 2 questions that investigated directly the perception of institutional violence obtained affirmative response frequencies of 28.2% and 31.8%, respectively. In regard to data collected in a field diary related to participatory observation, the main complaints referred to the health providerpatient relation, translated into dissatisfaction with the interpersonal relationship and with the resolution of the specific demand that required care. From content analysis, we classified 4 categories: Access; Information; Health professionalpatient relation; and Respect/dignity. We identified 6 subcategories: Impossibility of choice; Repressed demand; Communication difficulty; Asymmetric interpersonal relations; Privacy/confidentiality; Disrespect. We concluded, therefore, that the data presented show that in the reproductive health care programs, there are indicators of institutional violence. However, it is difficult to approach this phenomenon, mainly because of the power relations involved in the patient-health care provider interaction, resulting from unawareness that determinate situations violate sexual and reproductive rights. This can be explained by sociostructural questions that reveal marked inequalities, ratified by issues related to violation of the rights of National Health System (SUS) patients

Vivência de mulheres em situação de cárcere penitenciário durante o período gestacional

The gradual increase of violence in Brazilian society has being resulting in a growing of the prison population over last years, as well as the proportion of women than men. The participation of women in crime and responsibilities within her family makes this phenomenon a growing social problem. Women prisoners are mostly young, in reproductive age, making pregnancy a recurrent situation while they are serving a sentence. The studies about female criminality are poor and not helpful about its real dimension, especially when targeted to women who experienced pregnancy in this environment. Given these considerations, this research had as its object of study the experience of women in prison during pregnancy: analyze the experience of women in prison during the gestational period. This is a descriptive and qualitative study. The data were sourced through a semi-structured interview with nine incarcerated women, between August and September 2011, who met the inclusion criteria previously established, and organized according to the precepts of content analysis according to Bardin. Through this coding and classification process became a central thematic: the experience of women in prison during pregnancy, resulting in three categories: category 1 interpersonal relationships; category 2 - feelings that permeate the pregnant woman in prison; and category 3 absence of health care to incarcerated pregnant. The data were analyzed according to the available literature and the study revealed that interpersonal relationships, maintained by these women in prison, were marked by distance from family members, primarily due to socioeconomic factors, being a challenge for addressing of pregnancy in prison and reports of abuse of power by employees working in the institution. The women, who experience pregnancy in prison are more likely to experience feelings of worry, doubts, sadness and fear for baby s health due to lack of antenatal care and about the prison environment structure to meet your needs. The health care aimed at these women is poor and often does not occur, endangering the baby s life and his own mother, this is being a troubling reality in public health system. Finally, it is expected that this study can give visibility to an issue rarely discussed in the literature and contribute to the construction of specific public policies for this reality, in order to minimize the effects of incarceration during pregnancy

Biologia: da natureza à cultura. Da cultura para onde?

Vivemos um momento do mundo no qual o meio foi denominado pelo geógrafo Milton Santos, como Técnico-científico-informacional. Nesse meio, a produção científica está dominada por estruturas político-mercadológicas, que para sua manutenção e existência, enxergam e tratam os elementos naturais do planeta, como recursos ou instrumentos de uso e, as pessoas, como mão-de-obra e consumidores. O abismo que separa a humanidade da natureza, é um equívoco de percepção e tem criado conseqüências sócio-ambientais que passam a ameaçar as perspectivas de futuro, não só das gerações futuras, mas das gerações atuais. A ciência moderna, ainda orientada pelo pensamento cartesiano do século XVII, a ciência que tem como marca mais forte o “só acredito, vendo”, não vê que perdeu a objetividade e não está apta a responder aos problemas do mundo contemporâneo. Até mesmo porque, muitos deles são criados e perpetuados por esse instrumento de poder manipulado pela lógica capitalista. O título desse trabalho tem como intuito incitar uma reflexão séria a respeito do rumo que estamos dando à nossa existência no Planeta Terra enquanto seres biológico-culturais, com o objetivo de inspirar mudanças interiores capazes de gerar mudanças significativas em nossa cultura. Mudanças que ao menos cheirem a esperança no que se refere às possibilidades de melhorias em nosso quadro socioambiental. Vale salientar que “O Governo”, “A Ciência” e “O Mercado”, não são entidades obscuras que assombram nossas vidas, são pessoas como nós, para não dizer “nós mesmos”. Como integrantes da populosa comunidade humana, estamos carregados de valores, crenças e condutas que influenciam direta e indiretamente a nossa vida cotidiana, em termos de hábitos comportamentais, alimentares, de relacionamento interpessoal e com toda a comunidade de vida...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Influência da Alexitimia nos Processos Atencionais: a deteção de expressões faciais emocionais

A alexitimia é caraterizada pela dificuldade no processamento emocional e reconhecimento de expressões faciais, processos indispensáveis no relacionamento interpessoal. Neste estudo pretendemos avaliar se indivíduos com altos níveis de alexitimia apresentam maiores índices de psicopatologia e se o seu processamento de expressões faciais, sobretudo de expressões com cariz emocional negativo (raiva e nojo), é diferenciado do processamento efetuado por indivíduos com baixos níveis de alexitimia. Os participantes (67 mulheres) realizaram uma tarefa de procura visual onde se apresentavam conjuntos de expressões faciais emocionais (alegria, raiva, nojo), tendo os participantes de detetar de modo rápido e preciso a presença (ou ausência) destas expressões apresentadas entre estímulos neutros (expressões faciais neutras). Os resultados não revelaram quaisquer diferenças significativas entre os grupos. Contudo, verificou-se um processamento diferencial das expressões faciais emocionais em função do género da face. As expressões emocionais negativas em faces de homens foram mais rapidamente detetadas. Por outro lado, o processamento de faces de mulheres que expressavam raiva conduziu a uma maior proporção de erros. Estes resultados poderão remeter para a sensibilidade adquirida face às expressões faciais masculinas negativas e ameaçadoras, que conferem maior probabilidade de predizer agressão. Os pressupostos evolutivos associados ao processamento das emoções negativas, sobretudo da raiva, que a literatura na área da relação entre a emoção e a atenção aponta como adaptativa na população em geral, poderá explicar a ausência de efeitos significativos entre o grupo com altos e baixos níveis de alexitimia.
