A ESTRATÉGIA DA REGIONALIDADE: COOPERATIVISMO NA REGIÃO DO ABCD PAULISTA

A Região do Grande ABCD Paulista destaca-se por abrigar o mais significativo pólo industrial brasileiro. No entanto, muitas indústrias da região têm se retirado ocasionando desta forma, mudanças na estrutura social e econômica. Observa-se então que as cooperativas da Região do Grande ABCD Paulista começam a ganhar vitalização. As cooperativas neste momento de globalização se destacam em vários países, sendo elas, em essência associações de pessoas reunidas por um ou mais objetivos comuns. As principais perguntas que norteiam esta pesquisa são a representatividade dos ramos das cooperativas na Região do Grande ABCD Paulista, e suas contribuições sociais para a região. A natureza da pesquisa é exploratória, apresentando revisão bibliográfica desde o surgimento do cooperativismo até os dias atuais, fundamentada em um estudo de caso de uma cooperativa do ramo de transporte. Os dados foram coletados em base documental e entrevistas com cooperados, funcionários e diretores. No caso da cooperativa pesquisada o estudo proporcionou evidências significativas da melhoria de vida de seus cooperados, bem como a expansão da própria cooperativa, principalmente pela aquisição de sua sede própria., além do posicionamento como referência da sua logo marca no nicho de mercado em que atua.(AU)

The wing in yeast heat shock transcription factor (HSF) DNA-binding domain is required for full activity

The yeast heat shock transcription factor (HSF) belongs to the winged helix family of proteins. HSF binds DNA as a trimer, and additional trimers can bind DNA co-operatively. Unlike other winged helix–turn–helix proteins, HSF’s wing does not appear to contact DNA, as based on a previously solved crystal structure. Instead, the structure implies that the wing is involved in protein–protein interactions, possibly within a trimer or between adjacent trimers. To understand the function of the wing in the HSF DNA-binding domain, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain was created that expresses a wingless HSF protein. This strain grows normally at 30°C, but shows a decrease in reporter gene expression during constitutive and heat-shocked conditions. Removal of the wing does not affect the stability or trimeric nature of a protein fragment containing the DNA-binding and trimerization domains. Removal of the wing does result in a decrease in DNA-binding affinity. This defect was mainly observed in the ability to form the first trimer-bound complex, as the formation of larger complexes is unaffected by the deletion. Our results suggest that the wing is not involved in the highly co-operative nature of HSF binding, but may be important in stabilizing the first trimer bound to DNA.

HELPING YOUTH WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER DEVELOP SOCIAL COMPETENCE IN COMMUNITY-BASED SETTINGS

The purpose of the current dissertation is to identify the features of effective interventions by exploring the experiences of youth with ASD who participate in such interventions, through two intervention studies (Studies 1 and 2) and one interview study (Study 3). Studies 1 and 2 were designed to support the development of social competence of youth with ASD through Structured Play with LEGO TM (Study 1, 12 youths with ASD, ages 7–12) and Minecraft TM (Study 2, 4 youths with ASD, ages 11–13). Over the course of the sessions, the play of the youth developed from parallel play (children playing alone, without interacting) to co-operative play (playing together with shared objectives). The results of Study 2 showed that rates of initiations and levels of engagement increased from the first session to the final session. In Study 3, 12 youths with ASD (ages 10–14) and at least one of their parents were interviewed to explore what children and their parents want from programs designed to improve social competence, which activities and practices were perceived to promote social competence by the participants, and which factors affected their decisions regarding these programs. The adolescents and parents looked for programs that supported social development and emotional wellbeing, but did not always have access to the programs they would have preferred, with factors such as cost and location reducing their options. Three overarching themes emerged through analysis of the three studies: (a) interests of the youth; (b) structure, both through interactions and instruction; and (c) naturalistic settings. Adolescents generally engage more willingly in interventions that incorporate their interests, such as play with Minecraft TM in Study 2. Additionally, Structured Play and structured instruction were crucial components of providing safe and supportive contexts for the development of social competence. Finally, skills learned in naturalistic settings tend to be applied more successfully in everyday situations. The themes are analysed through the lens of Vygotsky’s (1978) perspectives on learning, play, and development. Implications of the results for practitioners and researchers are discussed.
