A Coleção de azulejaria antiga da Faculdade de Belas Artes da Universidade de Lisboa : processo de inventário

This thesis presents the process of conducting the inventory of the old tiles collection of the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Lisbon (FBAUL). This set can be divided into two major groups: the first is integrated in the building, the second consists of a set 2036 loose tiles with a pattern of decorative, ornamental and figuratively, some of which form panels of great value. Due to the existence of a wide variety of unknown provenance tile, stored at random, we feel the need to develop an inventory process, intended to safeguard and preserve these he-ritage objects whose existence was virtually unknown until the beginning of this work. This process continued working methodology started with the identification, photographic survey and labeling, with subsequent filling an inventory sheet. To obtain information about the loose tiles, it was essential to have a previous cleaning the mortar that prevented the reading of existing information in masonry, a process developed with the support of un-dergraduate students. After completion of the above process, we make the assembly of panels existing mostly very fragmented to give some iconographic references. In this process we identified 21 types of patterns belonging to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries and 30 figurative and orna-mental panels. We realized then interconnections between them and the sets placed in situ around the building, and some of its tiles have been used to fill spaces or gaps. At the same time, we have created the inventory records, diagnosis and intervention, as well as a database for internal consultation - Excel - organized by a filtering system to allow quick search of all the tiles present in FBAUL. Finally, we will show a room to house the collection of loose tiles, making references to the ideal conditions of the outdoor environment and its packaging. Also we propose a very punc-tual removing some tiles embedded in the walls of the building which form part of panels composed of loose tiles, indicating a proposal to replace the other coherent and complete element belonging to the collection, preferably with a standard reason

Estudo Preliminar das Propriedades Psicométricas do Inventário de Lateralidade de Edinburgh numa Amostra de Adultos da População Portuguesa

Introdução: A lateralidade é a diferença na capacidade de controlo entre os dois lados do corpo. Os métodos utilizados para avaliar a lateralidade manual incluem a observação efetiva do uso do membro dominante ou a aplicação de inventários respondidos pelo próprio indivíduo avaliado. O Inventário de Lateralidade de Edinburgh (EHI) é o instrumento mais utilizado para avaliar a lateralidade manual. Apesar do seu uso amplo, em Portugal não existem estudos que avaliem a sua validade e fidedignidade. Objetivos: Estudar as propriedades psicométricas do Inventário de Lateralidade de Edinburgh numa amostra da população portuguesa. Métodos: A amostra é constituída por 290 pessoas (135 homens e 155 mulheres), com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 65 anos. Todos os participantes preencheram uma declaração de consentimento informado e uma bateria de testes neuropsicológicos Resultados: A média no EHI foi de 62,36 (DP = 38,00). Os resultados demonstraram que das seis variáveis sociodemográficas (idade, sexo, escolaridade, zona de residência, regiões e profissão) três apresentaram ter influência significativa nas pontuações do EHI: idade, zona de residência e regiões. A confiabilidade e a estabilidade temporal do EHI apresentaram resultados adequados. A análise fatorial confirmatória mostrou que o modelo não é melhor explicado por um fator. Para dois fatores o modelo continua a não ser adequado. Conclusão: Apesar de termos obtido uma boa consistência interna não nos é possível considerar este teste como o mais adequado para medir o constructo da lateralidade. / Introduction: The handedness is the difference in the control capacity between the two sides of the body. The methods used to evaluate the manual handedness include the effective observation of the use of dominant member or application of inventories answered by the person assessed. The Edinburgh Handedness Inventory (EHI) is the most used to evaluate manual handedness. Even though being widely used, in Portugal there are no studies that measure its validity and reliability. Objective: To study the psychometric properties of Edinburgh Handedness Inventory in a Portuguese sample. Methods: The sample consists of 290 people (135 men and 155 women), aged between 18 and 65 years. All participants filled an informed consent form and a battery of neuropsychological tests. Results: The average in EHI was 62.36 (SD = 38.00). The results showed that 3 of 6 sociodemographic variables showed significant influence in EHI scores. The reliability and temporal stability of EHI were adequate. Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model is not better explained by one factor. A two-factor model was not also suitable. Conclusion: Even though we got a good internal consistency we cannot consider this test as the most appropriate for measuring the handedness construct.

Inventário das espécies de peixes da costa do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte e aspectos zoogeográficos da ictiofauna recifal do Oceano Atlântico

We present a checklist of the shores fishes of the coast of the Rio Grande do Norte state. Species were registered through the specimens collection, underwater records, samples in landings of artisanal fleet and by compilation of data from literature and ichthyologic collections, between January 2004 to 2006. A total of 440 species form 2 classes, 25 orders, 106 families and 253 genus were registered. It is believed that due the great increase of the number of species registered, the ichthyofauna of the coast of this state is reasonably known
