Um estudo do traço de ansiedade numa população de professores universitários

Esta pesquisa surge do ~nteresse pela ~mportanc~a do estu- do_ do comportamento humêno, face ~s distintas situaçÕes de desem- penha, manifestado por atitudes que revelam o compromisso no meio eoucacional.

A teoria de Rensis Likert e o perfil organizacional da Universidade do Amazonas

Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo verificar a conveniência e adequação do modelo de Rensis Likert a uma Universidade - no caso a do Amazonase ã identificação dos seus estilos organizacionais através da aplicação de seu instrumental, técnicas de mensuração das variáveis organizacionais reI acionadas com o comportamento humano, e da construção dos perfis, exame de sua concentração nos quatro Sistemas Gerenciais de Likert e comparaçao com o Sistema 4 de Likert. Os resultados não só demonstraram a conveniência da aplicação do modelo, como também permitiram avaliar sua adequação ao estudo dos perfis organizacionais da Universidade e a identificação de seus estilos administrativos e formas de organização humana.

Graph analysis of dream reports is especially informative about psychosis

Early psychiatry investigated dreams to understand psychopathologies. Contemporary psychiatry, which neglects dreams, has been criticized for lack of objectivity. In search of quantitative insight into the structure of psychotic speech, we investigated speech graph attributes (SGA) in patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder type I, and non-psychotic controls as they reported waking and dream contents. Schizophrenic subjects spoke with reduced connectivity, in tight correlation with negative and cognitive symptoms measured by standard psychometric scales. Bipolar and control subjects were undistinguishable by waking reports, but in dream reports bipolar subjects showed significantly less connectivity. Dream-related SGA outperformed psychometric scores or waking-related data for group sorting. Altogether, the results indicate that online and offline processing, the two most fundamental modes of brain operation, produce nearly opposite effects on recollections: While dreaming exposes differences in the mnemonic records across individuals, waking dampens distinctions. The results also demonstrate the feasibility of the differential diagnosis of psychosis based on the analysis of dream graphs, pointing to a fast, low-cost and language-invariant tool for psychiatric diagnosis and the objective search for biomarkers. The Freudian notion that ‘‘dreams are the royal road to the unconscious’’ is clinically useful, after all.
