Conforto térmico em espaços públicos de passagem: estudos em cidades do Estado de São Paulo

This paper presents the results of a study on the thermal comfort in open urban spaces, undertaken in pedestrian streets located in the three towns, Campinas, Baurú, and Presidente Prudente, in the state of Sao Paulo. The study was developed as part of a more extensive project on thermal comfort in different kinds of open public spaces in Brazil. The methodology involved monitoring the microclimatic variables (air and globe temperature, humidity, air velocity and global solar radiation), and structured interviews, in order to assess the actual thermal comfort through the Actual Sensation Vote (ASV) and the personal users’ variables. The Physiological Equivalent Temperature (PET) was also calculated. The results show different limits for neutral temperature in each city: 20-29ºC for Campinas, 21-30 ºC for Bauru and 14-24 ºC for Presidente Prudente). However, 59.5% of the total sample (308 out of 519 individuals) indicated comfort limits ranging from 18 to 26 ºC, which is consistent with the limits proposed by Monteiro and Alucci for the city of Sao Paulo. These results can contribute to evaluate the thermal quality of other public spaces in the same towns.

Públicos e meios de comunicação: a formação necessária para a interatividade

Technological innovations associated with the media made changes in the production, transmission and reception of mediatic messages. Among them, we highlight the convergence of media, and the consequent multimediality and the emergence of new possibilities of interactivity, allowing the audience to become increasingly active. But for that to happen properly, it is necessary to promote actions aimed to critical and creative use of media. Thus, this paper aims to refl ect on the need for literacy initiatives for the formation of publics, aiming what is considered a productive interactivity.

Ilhas de Croatã: a territorialidade de ações artísticas e espaços públicos

Influenced by the counterculture movement Provos (1965), the poetic narrative Islands of Croatan presents a brief analysis of its two artistic actions: in the experimental implementation of a white bicycle as collective, public and free transportation, inserted in the campus of UNESP/Bauru; and in TRANSITOSensorium action, deterritorializing an imaginary city from QRcodes throughout the city of Bauru, where the user finds a hybridity between visual, sound and written languages. The research relates the idea of territory through a relationship between space and power, listing the concepts of Psychogeography - the study of affective actions in collective space and Temporary Autonomous Zones. This is an experimental study, with the insertion of new technologies.

Vivências anímicas e percepção subjetiva de qualidade de vida: perspectiva de servidores públicos nos âmbitos da saúde e da educação

This study was qualitative in nature and aimed to investigate the possible interference of spiritual experiences with the subjective perception of quality of life. The perspectives of civil servants in education and health services were compared. The study was developed through bibliographic and exploratory research, and the instrument used for data collection for the exploratory research was the WHOQOL-bref, which was applied in two stages: before and after experiences with spiritual activities. The purposive sample used in this study was composed of civil servants working in health and education administrative sectors of the Brazilian Unified Health System and a State University, respectively, with the intention of broadening the understanding about the perception of quality of life in civil servants from different sectors. The exploratory research of the study was carried out in three stages. The first was a two-phase data collection, before and after experiences with spiritual activities offered to civil servants who worked in the health care field, as well as the analysis of the results of this step. The second stage was the collection of data before and after experiences with spiritual activities offered to civil servants who worked in the administrative sector of education in a public university, besides the analysis of the results of this step. The third stage consisted of a comparison of the results obtained in the preceding two steps. The data resulting from the use of the research instrument for both samples were analyzed via Thematic Content Analysis. A questionnaire containing 26 questions based on four main themes was used. The first two questions were related to perceived quality of life and health satisfaction and they were not part of the specific domains. The other 24 questions were divided between the four themes: physical domain, psychological domain, domain of social relations, and environmental domain. The results...

O Raciocínio lógico-matemático: classificação e uso em concursos públicos

This study offers an analysis of classification of the main issues of logic and logical thinking found in competitive tendering and math tests, according to their concepts and characteristics, whether involving mathematics, or not. Moreover, a research on the evolutionary historic processes of logic according to three major crises of the foundations of mathematics was conducted. This research helped to define Logic as a science that is quite distinctive from Mathematics. In order to relate the logical and the mathematical thinking, three types of knowledge, according to Piaget, were presented, with the logical-mathematical one being among them. The study also includes an insight on the basic concepts of propositional and predicative logic, which aids in the classification of issues of logical thinking, formal logic or related to algebraic, and geometric or arithmetic knowledge, according to the Venn diagrams. Furthermore, the key problems - that are most frequently found in tests are resolved and classified, as it was previously described. As a result, the classification in question was created and exemplified with eighteen logic problems, duly solved and explained

Atendimentos decorrentes de queimaduras em serviços públicos de emergência no Brasil, 2009

O objetivo foi analisar os atendimentos por queimaduras em serviços de emergência, e fatores associados. Estudo transversal de 761 atendimentos coletados pelo Sistema de Vigilância de Violências e Acidentes em 2009. A maioria foi do sexo masculino (58,6%); adultos de 30 a 49 anos (23,1%) e crianças de 0 a 9 anos (23%). A residência foi o local de ocorrência mais frequente (62,1%), especialmente para crianças e mulheres; em seguida comércio, serviços, indústria e construção (19,1%), especialmente entre homens de 20 a 49 anos. Queimaduras no trabalho foram 29,1% do total. Uso de álcool chegou a 5,1%. Agentes causadores em todas as idades: substância quente (43,6%) e fogo/chama (24,2%); na faixa produtiva: substâncias químicas. As queimaduras entre 0 e 14 anos foram associadas com residência, substância e objeto quente e internação hospitalar; entre os de 15 a 49 anos associaram-se com fogo/chama e choque elétrico, via pública e alta da emergência. Estratégias de prevenção para crianças e trabalhadores devem ser implantadas.

Articulação entre serviços públicos de saúde nos cuidados voltados à saúde mental infantojuvenil

O objetivo do estudo é descrever e analisar as articulações que se realizam entre as equipes da Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) e Centro de Atenção Psicossocial Infantojuvenil (CAPSI), tendo em vista as ações voltadas à saúde mental de crianças e adolescentes. Foram realizadas entrevistas semidirigidas com gerentes de cinco CAPSI e 13 Unidades Básicas de Saúde com ESF, de 5 regiões distintas no Município de São Paulo, Brasil, que foram transcritas e analisadas mediante perspectiva hermenêutica. A articulação entre as equipes da ESF e CAPSI se dá prioritariamente por encaminhamento de casos, apoio matricial ou parceria para casos considerados pertinentes ao CAPSI. Falta de recursos humanos, cobrança por produtividade e ausência de capacitação dos profissionais da ESF para trabalhar com saúde mental foram mencionadas como obstáculos para a efetiva articulação entre os serviços. A lógica do encaminhamento e da desresponsabilização, bem como a hegemonia do modelo biomédico e a consequente fragmentação dos cuidados se mostram vigentes no cotidiano dos serviços.

A estrutura de provisão dos serviços de saneamento básico no Brasil: uma análise comparativa do desempenho dos provedores públicos e privados

O presente artigo realiza uma análise que compara o desempenho dos provedores públicos e privados de serviços de saneamento básico no Brasil. As diferenças de desempenho entre os provedores que, de acordo com a literatura, estão submetidos a diferentes incentivos foram avaliadas com base nos dados do Sistema Nacional de Informações sobre Saneamento (Snis) de 2010 a partir de uma estimativa em cross-section para uma amostra de 4.930 municípios brasileiros. Os resultados não fornecem evidências fortes de que um grupo seja superior a outro na maior parte dos indicadores. Dado que os grupos revelaram superioridade em indicadores específicos, a contribuição deste estudo é propor o desenho de uma política que considere diversas modalidades de gestão e provisão como possível solução para o desafio de universalizar os serviços no país.
