Fatores que influenciam a cooperação em humanos

Human cooperation is fundamentally affected by reciprocal exchange, but it is also remarkably common on the context of large and symbolically marked in-groups, which promote cooperation through the feeling of belonging to a group. In this thesis, two empirical articles were produced in order to investigate how human cooperation is affected by factors such as reciprocity, in-group behavior, in-group markers and gender. We investigated this subject through the administration of online games consisting of token donations, on which the subjects faced virtual players controlled by the experiment. We found that cooperative behavior is strongly influenced by reciprocity, and it is also affected by the in-group behavior, observed on the context of the social variables place of birth, ethnicity, and religions, once all of them acted as in-group markers. The subjects´ in-group behavior was enhanced when they played with generous in-group opponents, but weakened when their in-group opponents were non-generous. It was also found that cooperation is not affected by gender, but men and women cooperated in different ways under the influence of reciprocity and in-group behavior. Women are much more reciprocal on their cooperative behavior and men are less willing to cooperate with outgroupers, even when they act generously. The overall results contribute to a better understanding of the adaptive value of cooperation, reciprocity and in-group behavior on the solution of important challenges through the human evolutionary history

A influência do feedback verbal na cooperação em crianças

Human cooperation is a hallmark of this species due to its wide extension to genetically unrelated individuals and complex division of labor. It is considered an evolutionary puzzle, because the theory of evolution by natural selection predicts that self-interested individuals tend to be selected. Different theories have been proposed to explain the evolution of cooperation, which the most important are kin selection and reciprocal altruism. Considering the evolutionary continuity between species, humans and other primates have several common traits that help to promote cooperation between individuals of these species. Two features, however, seem to be particularly humans: inequality aversion and preferences in relation to others. Although human cooperation is not necessarily related to morality, cooperative traits are the basis for moral tendencies. The development of human morality is a combination of early prosocial tendencies, cooperative skills displayed at different ages, social learning and cultural transmission of norms. The social stimulus seems to be particularly important in promoting cooperative behavior in children and adults. In order to study the influence of social stimuli, as verbal feedback, on children cooperation, a study was conducted with children in a public goods game. 407 children from public schools in Natal / RN, divided into 21 groups, between six and nine years, participated in eight rounds of this game. After each round, seven groups received praise for larger donations, seven groups have been criticized by smaller donations, and the other seven received no comment. Children cooperated more when criticized, without significant differences between sexes, although young children have cooperated more negative than older children. The results are likely related to the anticipation and avoidance of punishment associated with the feedback (although this did not occur), and greater sensitivity to the authority in younger children. Nevertheless, the cooperation decreased in all groups until the last day of play. The results suggest an early sensitivity to moral punishment, whose role in the maintenance of social relations must have been important in the evolution of cooperation in humans

Confiança como fator de redução da vulnerabilidade humana no ambiente de trabalho

O ambiente de trabalho predominante atualmente nas organizações complexas pode tanto atuar em favor da maior produtividade quanto debilitar a coesão e os laços de cooperação no trabalho. Neste último caso, faz emergir nos profissionais das empresas uma sensação de vulnerabilidade, traduzida por relacionamentos mais efêmeros e superficiais, que arrefecem a ação das pessoas. Neste artigo, trabalhou- se com a premissa de que o estabelecimento de um ambiente de confiança pode neutralizar essa sensação. O estudo teve como fim investigar se os profissionais percebem fragilidade nas relações de trabalho, como reagem à situação, e quais suas influências no processo de gestão. O material discursivo, recolhido de entrevistas em profundidade com gerentes de organizações multinacionais e nacionais de grande e médio porte, traz explicações para os motivos que levam à instalação da sensação de vulnerabilidade no trabalho. Essas reflexões permitem inferir que é possível instalar procedimentos de gestão, padrões de comportamento e cultura organizacional que atuem na reversão desse estado de coisas e desenvolvam ambientes de trabalho mais propícios.

Trabalho cooperativo como finalidade e estratégia de aprendizagem. Um estudo de caso em biologia humana

A aprendizagem cooperativa é concebida como uma estratégia pedagógica que privilegia uma aprendizagem personalizada e que potencia o sucesso educativo não só individual mas também coletivo. É conseguida através da cooperação de todos os membros do grupo, em que o desempenho de cada um influencia e é influenciado pelo desempenho do Outro. O grupo é concebido como uma organização social cuja eficiência implica a capacidade de construção e manutenção do grupo como um todo e de promoção do sucesso educativo de todos os elementos. É este quadro teórico que enforma a conceção, implementação e avaliação de uma intervenção pedagógica em Biologia Humana do 10º ano do Curso Tecnológico de Desporto. A estratégia pedagógica carateriza-se pela operacionalização articulada de estruturas e papéis de cooperação na abordagem da unidade didática - Transformação e Utilização de Energia - com a finalidade de promover a aprendizagem integrada de competências de cooperação e de conhecimento substantivo da área da Biologia. A avaliação da intervenção pedagógica incidiu nos objetivos de investigação - 1) Identificar o impacto da estratégia de intervenção pedagógica no desenvolvimento de competências de cooperação e 2) Identificar o impacto da estratégia de intervenção pedagógica no desenvolvimento de competências disciplinares –, efetuada a partir da análise de tarefas de aprendizagem e de um questionário de avaliação final global aplicado aos alunos. A estratégia de intervenção pedagógica é percecionada pelos alunos como tendo contribuído para a promoção do desenvolvimento não só de competências de cooperação mas também do conhecimento substantivo e do pensamento crítico.

Bondade, Altruísmo e Cooperação. Considerações evolutivas para a educação e a ética ambiental

A origem biológica da bondade humana e a sua relação com o altruísmo social e a cooperação são discutidas no contexto da biologia evolutiva. Os seus fundamentos naturais são apresentados a partir de precursores animais como a empatia social e a teoria da mente, nos primatas. Apresentam-se algumas das condições para a emergência da ética humana. Num mundo globalizado, discutem-se as condições etológicas e psicológicas para a experiência da bondade em contextos expandidos. Significadas pela linguagem, a bondade e a compaixão são vitais tanto para a definição de princípios éticos em ambiente, como para a educação para os valores ambientais.

Ginástica e ética na escola: Apontamentos para compreender a convivênca humana.

The daily teaching invokes us to answer questions that surround the educational action, they are ethic and political exercises of us teachers, considering the responsibility that is presented to us in circumstance of perspective that we create as for our students´ formation. Considering the public school Terezinha Paulino as stage of the daily teaching which we invested, and finally, the school gymnastic group (GGTP), as pedagogical practice specifically attended during this study, we launch the following questions: 1. What are the ethic indicators present in the experience lived by GGTP members? 2. What s the meaning of these indicators for the GGTP members? 3. Do these meanings configure a socio-political dimension of the individuals involved formation ? What socio-political dimension is that? And What is its contribution to think of Physical Education in school? From these issues, we highlight our goals in this research: investigate the educational experience lived in GGTP, with a focus on the ethical elements that characterize and reflect the relationship of these elements in the socio-political dimension of Physical Education in school. To answer the initial questions and achieve our goals, we use the Content Analysis (BARDIN, 2004) as a methodological contribution of this research. From this methodological contribution we got two strands of the discussion here related: relational behavior of living and undesirable relational conduct and non-social. typical examples of good living are: union, cooperation, solidarity, fraternity, conversation, dialogue, love, trust, responsibility, commitment, dedication, application, respect, partition, sharing, gratitude, companionship, kindness Correspond to undesirable behaviors conduct: intrigue, strife (dispute), vanity, arrogance, anger, rage, fury, nervousness, anxiety and fear. Permeates the categories discussion, The group of knowledge produced by different authors, Humberto Maturana predominate among them, sometimes related to some of its main partners, , José Varela, Gerda Verden-Zöller and Sima Nisis de Rezepka. Although less frequent, we broach other authors, including Edgar Morin and Paulo Freire, to enlarge, articulate, and thus contribute to support the notes, contents of this study. Besides the introductory chapter, is the content of this dissertation: ethics: textual understanding, the methodological way; relational behaviors of living; undesirable conduct relational and non-social; gymnastics as an ethical and political bet on training human. In ethics: textual understandings, we make a brief introduction to distinguish the ethical field which we are advancing; In the methodology way, we briefly describe the implementation of the analysis content (BARDIN,2007); in relational behaviors of living, as well as, in undesirable relational conduct and non-social, we point out the meanings discussing them supported on theoretical contribution of this research. Finally, in gymnastics as an ethical and political bet on training human, we point out some possibilities for the gymnastic practice and physical education at school, as well as to think about education by training human bias.

O uso corporativo do território brasileiro no período técnico-científico-informacional: o circuito espacial produtivo e círculos de cooperação da empresa Natura

In the current historical period marked by globalization and neoliberal policies have seen the pursuit of expanded reproduction of capital by corporations, which make from the deepening territorial division of labor, ie, the increasing presence of its circuit productive space within steps towards the relations between capital and labor. This capital increase is made possible mainly by exploiting precarious forms of labor. In Brazil today, much of the population enjoys the possibilities of consumption, due mainly to the policy measures implemented in the last decade, this situation favors further expansion of large companies in our territory, thus the circuit analysis of spatial production of cosmetics contributes to a political debate about the uses of the national territory. Given that companies are organizations whose actions occur inseparably technical systems that make up the territory, this course conclusion work seeks to understand the circuit of production space and cooperation circles cosmetics company Natura Cosmetics S/A

A formação humana na perspectiva histórico-ontológica

The theme of human formation is at the centre of the philosophy of education, whose aim is precisely the process of human promotion brought about by education. Starting from the critical vigilance proper to philosophy, the text sketches a phenomenology of the present time, verifying that the ideas prevailing in education at present are centred on the critique of reason and on the notions of truth and objectivity. This neo-pragmatism, which in the attempt to oppose metaphysics becomes deeply metaphysical, reducing everything to language, is contested by the authors with Marx's thoughts as a historicising philosophy that concerns not abstract subjects, but real individuals, historical subjects that are constituted as a synthesis of social relations. To that end, the authors resort to the historical ontological reflection on human formation contained in Marx's Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844. The article concludes by defending the proposition that access to the classics is a necessary condition for human formation.

Politetrafluoroetileno e esclera humana no tratamento cirúrgico de perfuração escleral em coelhos

Purpose: An experimental study to evaluate the behavior of polytetrafluoroethylene (Gore-Tex®) compared with human sclera, in scleral perforations induced in rabbits eyes was performed. Methods: Twenty-two eyes of rabbits were submitted to scleral perforation followed by Gore-Tex® graft in the left eye and human sclera graft in the right eye respectively. During one month the postoperative evolution was analyzed every day: intensity of hyperemia, presence of infection, secretion, rejection and tonicity of the eyes. Results: No cases of secretion, infection or rejection were observed. The histological sections showed fibrosis in the eyes with Gore-Tex®, good adhesion and epithelization. Conclusion: The Gore-Tex® showed to be a plausible material to be used as graft in scleral defects with some advantages such as easy obtention, good handling and durability.
