Introdução: Vários estudos afirmam que a hipotonia das estruturas orofaríngeas está diretamente relacionada com a Roncopatia, sendo esta altamente prevalente em idosos. Um instrumento que avalie as caraterísticas miofuncionais orofaríngeas vai proporcionar um melhor conhecimento das alterações inerentes ao Ronco. Objetivos: Realizar a adaptação, para o Português Europeu, do protocolo de Avaliação Miofuncional Orofacial MBGR - adaptado para AOS e Ronco; Realizar a validação cultural da adaptação, para o Português Europeu, do protocolo de Avaliação Miofuncional Orofacial MBGR – adaptado para AOS e Ronco; Identificar as caraterísticas Miofuncionais Orofaciais de um grupo de indivíduos com Roncopatia. Metodologias: Adaptação do referido instrumento para o Português Europeu e consequente validação cultural, realizada por peritas de Língua Portuguesa e peritas em Motricidade Orofacial tendo sido igualmente aplicado a 8 indivíduos com Roncopatia. Resultados: Após as várias fases de adaptação do protocolo e aplicação a 8 elementos chegou-se ao protocolo adequado para medir o constructo a que se propõe. 6 indivíduos com Roncopatia são do sexo feminino. 100% da amostra apresenta a língua no assoalho da boca, como posição habitual, sendo que 87% tem uma largura de língua aumentada. 6 elementos da amostra têm o palato duro alto e estreito. O palato mole é identificado com assimetria e uma grande extensão. Metade da amostra apresenta úvula muito longa. Conclusões: O protocolo padronizado, aqui apresentado, é fundamental para nortear o tratamento, diminuindo as alterações Miofuncionais Orofaciais, reduzindo o ronco e melhorando a qualidade de sono do indivíduo.

This is a study concerning in the structure of non governmental organizations, based on the institutional theory. It aims to understand the relation among structure, social projects and environmental influences, analyzing if there is coherence with project social or expresses adaptation to the institutional pressures of the environment. It introduces as theoretical support for the themes, studies about institutional theory and social structure. The research is descriptive and exploratory; it also applies to a study of case, based on the technical procedures. From the research universe, that was compound by non governmental organizations from Natal, RN, Brasil, it was chosen the Casa Renascer, a non governmental organization that works with the combat to the violence and sexual exploration of children and teenagers. The data collection process employed includes documental research, observations and semi structured research devices, guided by the organizational process proposed by Serva (1996) and by the institutional theory. The collected data were qualitatively treated. The analysis was divided into three parts, following the research matters. The social project characterization demonstrated that the organization went by three main phases. The first one, characterized by focus in women and girls education and health; the second shows the emphasis on girls in social risk situation, with preventive approach; and the last one, characterized by victims assistance of violence and sexual exploration. From the analysis using the institutional theory mechanisms, the results showed that exists coherence between structure and environmental influences, but a weak coherence between structure and social projects. It indicates as main determinant of the structure, an aspect forgotten by the institutional theory, the power. It was observed the presence from normative, coercive and mimetic mechanisms, highlighting normative influences

Objetivo: Traduzir, adaptar e avaliar as propriedades psicométricas da Infiltration Scale para a cultura portuguesa. Métodos: Estudo metodológico de adaptação transcultural com avaliação das propriedades psicométricas da Infiltration Scale em uma coorte com 110 adultos submetidos à terapia intravenosa. Resultados: Na tradução e adaptação cultural, as adequações linguísticas foram discutidas pelos investigadores e um painel de especialistas, havendo concordância em 85,71% dos critérios clínicos, exceto "Possible numbness". A escala captou infiltração em 48 pacientes (prevalência de 60%). O edema foi o principal sinal evidenciado na inserção e áreas adjacentes ao cateter venoso. A consistência interna, determinada pelo alfa de Cronbach, foi de 0,85. Conclusão: A escala adaptada para a cultura portuguesa apresentou equivalência linguística em relação à original, mostrou-se válida e fidedigna, com boa consistência interna para avaliar a infiltração. A avaliação sistemática da infiltração com recurso a escala poderá subsidiar a tomada de decisão e implementação de medidas preventivas.

Introdução:O envelhecimento pressupõe alterações no organismo, sendo fundamental a medição das limitações da funcionalidade e da incapacidade na execução de tarefas individuais e sociais por parte dos idosos. As guidelines da ACSM enfatizam que os idosos obtêm benefícios na saúde com a realização de atividade física regular. Objetivo: Adaptar e validar para a cultura portuguesa a Late-Life Function and Disability Instrument (LLFDI). Material e Métodos: A versão portuguesa foi obtida através de um processo de metodologia sequencial. Para avaliar a validade e fiabilidade, esta versão foi administrada a 619 idosos (72±9). Destes, 77 foram submetidos a uma intervenção de fisioterapia com base em dois programas de exercícios, para determinar o poder de resposta. Resultados: Após obtenção da equivalência semântica e de conteúdo, a versão portuguesa da LLFDI demonstrou valores elevados de reprodutibilidade (CCI_função > 0,8 e CCI_incapacidade > 0,7) e níveis bastantes aceitáveis de consistência interna (α Cronbach > 0,82). As correlações obtidas entre a LLFDI e o MOS SF-36 são moderadas a altas. A análise fatorial confirmatória demonstra um modelo ajustado para a componente função (relações positivas e muito fortes) e incapacidade (relações no limiar da aceitabilidade). O Poder de resposta de 4 semanas, demonstrou valores de ESS <0,30 (função) e <0,28 (incapacidade). Os valores de RMS encontram-se entre 0,40 e 0,72 (função) e entre 0,27 e 0,59 (incapacidade). Conclusões: A versão portuguesa da LLFDI demonstrou valores aceitáveis de validade e fiabilidade, revelando valores baixos de poder de resposta.

"A perceção de suporte social familiar e dos amigos tem uma grande influência no desenvolvimento psicossocial saudável dos adolescentes. Desta forma, propusemo-nos adaptar e aferir para a população portuguesa as escalas de medida Perceção do Suporte Social da Família (PSS-Fam) e dos Amigos (PSS-Am) de Procidado e Heller (1983). Apresentamos os resultados obtidos a partir de uma amostra de 851 adolescentes com idades compreendidas entre os 11 e os 19 anos. Os resultados estão de acordo com os obtidos por Procidano e Heller (1983) que obtiveram uma solução com apenas um fator para cada escala. Os estudos psicométricos revelam, de forma global, bons índices de fiabilidade e validade dos instrumentos. Concluímos contribuindo com duas medidas adequadas para avaliar o suporte social percebido na população adolescente."

"A família tem grande poder de influência e de transformação na vida de crianças e adolescentes. Os estudos recentes referem que o suporte familiar parece influenciar o desenvolvimento de comportamentos agressivos. Afirmam ainda a existência de uma relação entre o comportamento de bullying e o suporte que os jovens recebem das suas famílias. Assim, partindo da hipótese de que na fase da adolescência dos filhos, o suporte social dos pais poderá estar na origem de diferentes tipos de comportamentos agressivos/vitimizantes, o objetivo deste estudo é o de explorar as propriedades psicométricas do Questionário de Suporte Parental (QSP-6) – versão reduzida para Adolescentes (Clouse, 2007). Deste modo, apresentamos os resultados obtidos a partir de uma amostra de 728 adolescentes e jovens (372 do sexo feminino e 356 do sexo masculino) com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 21 anos. A estrutura relacional dos 18 itens foi avaliada por uma Análise Fatorial Exploratória (AFE) sobre a matriz de correlações, com extração dos fatores pelo método das componentes principais, seguido de rotação varimax. Os estudos psicométricos do QSP-6 revelam, de forma global, bons índices de fiabilidade e validade do instrumento."

Behavioral adaptiveness to different situations as well as behavioral individuality result from the interrelations between environmental sitmuli and the responses of an organism.These kind of interrelationships also shape the neural circuits as well as characterize the plasticity and the neural individuality of the organism. Studies on neural plasticity may analyze changes in neural circuitry after environmental manipulations or changes in behavior after lesions in the nervous system. Issues on neural plasticity and recovery of function refer both to physiology and behavior as well as to the subjacent mechanisms related to morphology, biochemistry and genetics. They may be approached at the systemic, behavioral, cellular and molecular levels. This work intends to characterize these kinds of studies pointing to their relations with the analyis of behavior and learning.The analysis of how the environmental-organismic interrelationships affect the neural substrates of behavior is pointed as a very stimulating area for investigation.

The article presents two translation models that were typical in the XVII and XVIII centuries, but can also be seen as paradigmatics in the field of Translation Studies: 1) The rhetorical model that defends the possibility of translation and emphasizes the necessity of adapting the original to the taste of the target public. 2) The model that affirms the impossibility of translation, the non-translatability: a) because the sensual elements that are linked to the language of the original are praised; b) because there is a defense of the cultural relativism and of the non-translatability between cultures; c) or because there is a defense not only of the impossibility to separate signifiers and meaning, but also because there is a definition of the signifier and of all identities as being the result of a differential game.

OBJECTIVE: To adapted the critical velocity (CV), RAST test and lactate minimum (LM) to evaluation of female basketball players. METHODS: Twelve well-trained female basketball players (19 ± 1yrs) were submitted to four intensities running (10 - 14 km/h) at shuttle exercise until exhaustion, applied on alternate days. The linear model 'velocity vs. 1/tlim' was adopted to determine the aerobic (CV) and anaerobic (CCA) parameters. The lactate minimum test consisted of two phases: 1) hiperlactatemia induction using the RAST test and 2) incremental test composed by five shuttle run (20-m) at 7, 8, 9, 10, and 12 km/h. Blood samples were collected at the end of each stage. RESULTS: The velocity (vLM) and blood lactate concentration at LM were obtained by two polynomial adjustments: lactate vs. intensity (LM1) and lactate vs. time (LM2). ANOVA one-way, Student t-test and Pearson correlation were used for statistical analysis. The CV was obtained at 10.3 ± 0.2 km/h and the CCA estimated at 73.0 ± 3.4 m. The RAST was capable to induce the hiperlactatemia and to determine the Pmax (3.6 ± 0.2 W/kg), Pmed (2.8 ± 0.1 W/kg), Pmin (2.3 ± 0.1 W/kg) and FI (30 ± 3%). The vLM1 and vLM2 were obtained, respectively, at 9.47 ±0.13 km/h and 9.8 ± 0.13 km/h, and CV was higher than vLM1. CONCLUSION: The results suggest that the non-invasive model can be used to determine the aerobic and anaerobic parameters. Furthermore, the LM test adapted to basketball using RAST and progressive phase was effective to evaluate female athletes considering the specificity of modality, with high success rates observed in polynomial adjustment 'lactate vs. time' (LM2).

The purpose of this article is to introduce elements that allow building an interface between the academic research and the programs of basic education for youngsters and adults. It discusses contributions to these programs that can be found in the results of qualitative research studies. To this end, results of a five-year long project on teacher education are used, which aim was that of analyzing the interaction between teacher and student in youngster and adult literacy classes. The research project was conducted in natural contexts with the purpose of understanding a given social reality, and not of establishing general laws. Therefore, the credibility of its results was built through the observation of multiple contexts, and the gathering of data was made through various methods, from the perspective of several participants observed during a prolonged period of time. This empirical basis was used to evaluate recommendations contained in the report commissioned by Unesco to the International Literacy Institute for presentation at the World Forum on Education held in 2000 in Dakar. This report proposed that the continuous attendance of students to basic education programs is one of the great challenges of the new millennium. With respect to the problem of adult evasion from courses and programs, the article discusses the motivation and accessibility factors, pointed out in official documents as relevant factors to the success or failure of the programs.
