CAREGIVING FOR A FAMILY MEMBER WITH HEAD AND NECK CANCER

Objective: To know the perception of informal caregivers regarding the care for a family member with head and neck cancer. Methods: Qualitative study conducted between March and May 2014 in the radiotherapy outpatient center of the Centro de Alta Complexidade em Oncologia ��� CACON (Oncology High Complexity Center) of the Hospital Universit��rio de Bras��lia ��� HUB (University Hospital of Bras��lia) using semi-structured interviews with nine caregivers about the experience of caring for family members. Data underwent Content Analysis and four units of meaning were identified: ���Representation of cancer in the Family���, ���The care as debt, individual reward or reconstruction of family ties���, ���Repercussions of cancer on the caregiver���s personal life��� and ���Social support and network used by caregivers���. Results: Feelings of sadness and surprise at the moment of diagnosis were attributed to cancer, as well as the idea of punishment. The care was seen as personal satisfaction, accomplishment and opportunity for family rapprochement. Work overload and change in routine were altered functions. Religiosity, exchange of experience in the waiting room and institutional support appeared as coping strategies. Conclusion: The experience of caring for family members with head and neck cancer directly interferes in the lives of caregivers. Pointing out the institutional embracement as a strategy within the social network reinforces the importance of integrating the caregivers as a significant part of the health care plan developed by the health team.

Caracteriza����o da abordagem familiar em crian��as vitimas de maus tratos inclu��das nos projectos de interven����o precoce

Nas ��ltimas d��cadas a Interven����o Precoce tem demonstrado a sua utilidade no trabalho com as crian��as e as suas fam��lias. Sendo consensual a sua import��ncia, importa, tamb��m, que seja objecto de reflex��o e investiga����o. O distrito de ��vora �� pioneiro na implementa����o de estrat��gias na ��rea da Interven����o Precoce, desde o final da d��cada de 80, apresentando, uma vasta experi��ncia organizacional. Por isso entendemos ser o local ideal para a execu����o deste estudo, com o qual pretendemos conhecer e caracterizar os v��rios intervenientes nas pr��ticas da Interven����o Precoce e, fundamentalmente, as abordagens que s��o realizadas ��s fam��lias em que ocorrem maus tratos infantis. O desenho metodol��gico utilizado assenta num estudo descritivo utilizando m��todos quantitativos e qualitativos. Para a recolha de dados foi utilizado o question��rio auto-preenchido, com quest��es abertas e fechadas, fazendo-se posteriormente o tratamento estat��stico dos dados e a an��lise de conte��do das respostas. A popula����o deste estudo foi formada pelos t��cnicos de todas as equipas de Interven����o Precoce do distrito de ��vora. Nunca perdendo de vista a perspectiva ecol��gica/sist��mica, a realiza����o deste estudo proporciona-nos uma vis��o dos diversos contextos ambientais e sist��micos existentes nas abordagens realizadas ��s fam��lias, evidenciando a import��ncia e a adequa����o de estrat��gias que promovam a compet��ncia das fam��lias. ABSTRACT; ln the last decades Early Intervention has demonstrated its usefulness towards the children and their families. Therefore further ponderation and investigation on the subject is most important. The ��vora district pioneers the implementation of Early Intervention strategies, since the late 80���s and hence, vast organization experience. This makes it the ideal location to implement this study, which aims to learn and characterize the participants in the Early Intervention, and also the approaches directed at the families where child abuse occurs. The methodical design of this study is descriptive, and both quantitative and qualitative in method. The data was collected by a self-completed questionnaire, composed of open and closed questions, and then subjected to statistic and content analysis. The study population was composed by the technicians of all the teams in the Early Intervention program, of the ��vora district. While not neglecting the ecological/systemic perspective, of this study, it allowed us an overall outlook of the various environmental and systemic contexts, that exist regarding the families and thus their importance in promoting the family competences was underlined.

Metacognition and executive functioning in Elementary School

This study analyzes differences in metacognitive skills and executive functioning between two groups of students (10-12 years) with different levels of metacognitive knowledge (high n = 50, low n = 64). Groups were established based on students' score on a test of knowledge of strategy use. Metacognitive skills were assessed by means of self-report. Students reported the frequency with which they applied these strategies during the phases of planning, execution, and evaluation of learning. Information about student executive functioning was provided by families and teachers, who completed two parallel forms of a behavior rating scale. The results indicated that: a) the group with high levels of metacognitive knowledge reported using their metacognitive skills more frequently than their peers in the other group. These differences were statistically significant in the phases of planning and execution; b) both family and teachers informed of better levels of executive functioning in the students with high metacognitive knowledge. Statistically significant differences were found in planning, functional memory, focus, and sustained attention. These results show the existence of an association between different levels of metacognitive knowledge, and differences in metacognitive skills and executive functions, and suggest the need to emphasize this set of variables in order to encourage students to acquire increasing levels of control over their learning process.

Mapeando fundamentos do Constructo Neuromarketing com profissionais de empresa de publicidade

This study aims to acknowledge the domain level and influence of the neuromarketing construct. This is done considering professionals at advertising agencies in Brazil. The presence of concepts related to this new approach is very little divulged, and there are little analysis performed on this area. Thus, the research is of qualitative and exploratory nature and used as primary fonts books, articles related to marketing, neuroscience, and psychology as well as secondary fonts. A profound interview was realized aiming the main advertising agencies in Brazil. The public was composed by managers responsible for planning. A content analysis was performed afterwards. The advances related to the brain science have permitted the development of technological innovation. These go primarily towards knowledge and unconscious experiences of consumers, which are responsible for the impulse of decision making and consumer behavior. These issues are related to Neuromarketing, that in turn, uses techniques such as FMRI, PET and FDOT. These scan the consumer s brain and produces imagines on the neuron s structures and functioning. This is seen while activities such as mental tasks for the visualization of brands, images or products, watching videos and commercials are performed. It is observed that the agencies are constantly in search of new technologies and are aware of the limitations of the current research instruments. On the other hand, they are not totally familiar with concepts related to neuromarketing. In relation to the neuroimage techniques it is pointed out by the research that there is full unawareness, but some agencies seem to visualize positive impacts with the use of these techniques for the evaluation of films and in ways that permit to know the consumer better. It is also seen that neuroimage is perceived as a technique amongst others, but its application is not real, there are some barriers in the market and in the agencies itself. These barriers as well as some questioning allied to the scarce knowledge of neuromarketing, make it not possible to be put into practice in the advertising market. It is also observed that even though there is greater use of neuromarketing; there would not be any meaningful changes in functioning and structuring of these agencies. The use of the neuro-image machines should be done in research institutes and centers of big companies. Results show that the level of domain of the neuromarketing construct in the Brazilian advertising agencies is only a theoretical one. Little is known of this subject and the neurological studies and absolutely nothing of neuroimage techniques

A busca visual da cor, como medida avaliadora do funcionamento do sistema visual: um estudo explorat��rio a prop��sito da objetividade da felicidade em crian��as

Este estudo, procura explicar a modularidade da mente humana, como um conjunto de m��dulos, permitindo desta forma contribuir para o estudo das ci��ncias cognitivas. Estes m��dulos da arquitetura mental, permitem que a nossa mente interprete a cor resultante do sistema visual e das longitudes de ondas do espetro eletromagn��tico refratado dos objetos. Tendo por base o estudo do sistema visual, as c��lulas sens��veis, designadas por fotorrecetores percorrem o nervo ��tico at�� atingir o enc��falo, localizando-se a�� o sistema percetivo, permitindo desta forma realizar o estudo sobre busca visual da cor, como medida avaliadora do funcionamento do sistema visual, um estudo explorat��rio a prop��sito da objetividade da felicidade em crian��as, que visa explorar a busca visual disjuntiva da cor como medida objetiva do bom funcionamento mental, do bem-estar subjetivo, como construto da felicidade. A amostra foi constitu��da por um grupo de 49 crian��as n��o institucionalizadas e por um grupo de 16 crian��as institucionalizadas, de ambos os sexos. Para a concretiza����o deste estudo, foi necess��ria a utiliza����o de uma tarefa de busca visual disjuntiva, que utilizou as simetrias de cores pertencentes ao mesmo par oponente e cores pertencentes a diferentes pares oponentes. Os resultados sugerem que n��o h�� qualquer interfer��ncia da institucionaliza����o no funcionamento mental, logo no bem-estar subjetivo nas crian��as; ABSTRACT: This study seeks to explain the modularity of the human mind, as a set of modules, giving this way a contribution to the study of the cognitive sciences. These modules of the mental architecture, allow our mind to interpret the resulting color of the visual system and the wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum refracted from the objects. Based on the study of our visual system, sensitive cells known as photoreceptors, which run along the optic nerve to the encephalon, being the perceptive system located there, allowing in this way to carry out the study on visual search of colour, as an assessment measure of the functioning of the visual system, an exploratory study concerning the objectivity of happiness in children, which aims to explore the disjunctive visual search of color as an objective measure of good mental functioning, of subjective well-being, as a construct of happiness. The sample consisted of a group of 49 non institutionalized children and of a group of 16 institutionalized children from both sexes. For the implementation of this study it was necessary to use a disjunctive visual search task, which used the Symmetry of colours belonging to the same opponent pair, and colours belonging to different opponent pairs. The results suggest that there is no interference from the institutionalization in mental functioning, therefore in the children���s subjective well being.

A import��ncia da informa����o financeira para o processo de tomada de decis��o em empresas de estrutura familiar

Em Portugal, assim como um pouco por todo o mundo, a maioria das empresas s��o de cariz familiar. A predomin��ncia destas empresas faz com que as mesmas tenham um papel relevante na economia, seja pela cria����o e distribui����o de riqueza seja pela cria����o de emprego. A import��ncia que se lhes reconhece constituiu o fator ou motiva����o suficiente para desenvolver este trabalho que, com base numa metodologia preferencialmente quantitativa, aplicada a um conjunto de empresas familiares associadas da Associa����o Portuguesa das Empresas Familiares, se prop��e averiguar se estas empresas atribuem import��ncia �� informa����o financeira no processo da tomada de decis��o. Utilizou-se como instrumento de recolha de informa����o um inqu��rito por question��rio e cujos resultados permitiram desenvolver uma an��lise descritiva explorat��ria e aplicar testes estat��sticos n��o param��tricos. O trabalho realizado permitiu recolher evid��ncia suficiente para concluir sobre a import��ncia das demonstra����es financeiras para o processo de tomada de decis��o, em particular no que respeita �� utiliza����o do balan��o e da demonstra����o dos resultados. N��o foi, por��m, poss��vel identificar um padr��o sobre as demonstra����es financeiras preparadas em fun����o do tipo de norma contabil��stica aplic��vel e do setor de atividade, nem sobre a import��ncia atribu��da �� informa����o financeira em fun����o da dimens��o da empresa. Foi poss��vel concluir que a informa����o financeira ��, fundamentalmente, utilizada para avaliar os impactos financeiros, apoiar na gest��o corrente, tomar decis��es de investimento e cumprir com obriga����es fiscais, sendo muito evidente a import��ncia que as empresas familiares atribuem �� informa����o financeira como forma de dar cumprimento ��s obriga����es fiscais.

Desempenho e background familiar: um estudo no acesso a uma institui����o de ensino t��cnico federal no Brasil

This paper comprises an investigation on the influence of the variable family backgrounds (father school level, mother school level and family income) over the pupil s performance in admissions examination (entrance test or PROITEC) at Instituto Federal de Educa����o, Ci��ncia e Tecnologia do Rio Grande do Norte (IFRN). From that point of view, the main goal of this research is to analyze the influence of the family background as a determiner of the pupil��s performance in the access to Technical and Professional education at IFRN. Secondary data were used from two databases (entrance test and PROITEC) adding up to 19.226 observations to the vacancies offered in the year of 2013. Aiming at achieving the proposed goal, a conceptual model composed of three hypothesis was developed. The results were presented in four stages: stage I presentation of the descriptive statistical results of the two databases; stage II separation of the campi in clusters; stage III analysis of multiple regressions; stage IV analysis of the logistics regressions. Two statistical tests were used to validate the hypothesis: T-test and Wald test. Hypothesis 1 and 2 were confirmed and H3 was refused. The results presented favorable causal connections to the family income and the father school level variables (with bigger effect for fathers with a higher education degree). The mother school level variable did not provide statistical significance for this research. Based on this result, after this work, this institution is to develop a strategic plan to assist in the success rate of students preparing diagnoses in order to diminish the effects of the variables that impacted negatively
