Empirically supported interventions in psychology: contributions of Research Domain Criteria
Empirically supported interventions in psychological disorders should provide (1) evidence supporting the underlying
psychological mechanisms of psychopathology to target in the intervention and (2) evidence supporting the efficacy
of the intervention. However, research has been dedicated in a greater extent to efficacy than to the acquisition of
empirical support for the theoretical basis of therapies. Research Domain Criteria (RDoC) emerges as a new framework
to provide empirically based theories about psychological mechanisms that may be targeted in intervention
and tested for its efficacy. The current review aims to demonstrate the possible applications of RDoC to design empirically
supported interventions for psychological disorders. Two RDoC-inspired interventions are reviewed, and the
RDoC framework is broadly explored in terms of its contributions and limitations. From preliminary evidence,
RDoC offers many avenues for improving evidence-based interventions in psyinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio

Effects of Adding Vertical or Horizontal Force-Vector Exercises to In-season General Strength Training on Jumping and Sprinting Performance of Youth Football Players
Abade, E, Silva, N, Ferreira, R, Baptista, J, Gonçalves, B, Osório, S, and Viana, JL. Effects of adding vertical or horizontal force-vector exercises to in-season general strength training on jumping and sprinting performance of youth football players. J Strength Cond Res XX(X): 000-000, 2019-Football is characterized by short-term high-intensity triaxial activities that require optimized neuromuscular capacity. Thus, training routines must consider the direction of force application, particularly when strength exercises are performed. This study aimed to explore the effects of adding vertical or horizontal force-vector exercises to a 20-week in-season general strength training program on jumping and sprinting performance of youth football players. Twenty-four well-trained male under-17 players participated in this study and were randomly assigned to a control, vertical, or horizontal training group. Control group performed a general strength training program (free weights, eccentric-overload, and body mass exercises) once a week during 20 weeks. Vertical and horizontal groups additionally performed back-half-squat or barbell hip-thrust, respectively. Vertical group improved vertical jump (VJ) (squat jump, likely 4.5; ±4.4% and countermovement jump, likely 4.9; ±4.1%), horizontal jump (HJ) (most likely 7.5; ±2.7%), and sprint (10 m, likely -1.6; ±2.0% and 20 m, very likely -3.3; ±1.6%). The horizontal group showed unclear results in VJ; however, large improvements were observed in HJ (most likely, 13.0; ±4.8%), 10 m and 20 m (very likely -3.0; ±1.8% and most likely -3.8; ±1.0%, respectively). Back-squat and hip-thrust showed an important transference effect to both jumping and sprinting performance. If considering the effects of back-squat on VJ, hip-thrust improved HJ and sprint to a greater extent. This study reinforces the importance of performing both vertical and horizontal force-vector exercises to enhance physical performance during football in-season, even when performed only once a week.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Task Constraints and Coordination Flexibility in Young Swimmers
This study aimed to examine young swimmers' behavioral flexibility when facing different task constraints, such as swimming speed and stroke frequency. Eighteen (five boys and 13 girls) 13- to 15-year-old swimmers performed a 15 × 50-m front crawl with five trials, at 100%, 90%, and 70% each of their 50 m maximal swimming speed and randomly at 90%, 95%, 100%, 105%, and 110% of their preferred stroke frequency. Seven aerial and six underwater cameras were used to assess kinematics (one cycle), with upper-limb coordination computed through a continuous relative phase and index of coordination. A cluster analysis identified six patterns of coordination used by swimmers when facing various speed and stroke frequency constraints. The patterns' nature and the way the swimmers shifted between them are more important than getting the highest number of patterns (range of repertoire), that is, a change in the motor pattern in order to adapt correctly is more important than being able to execute a great number of patterns.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Vinculação às pessoas vs Vinculação aos animais
A vinculação é um processo importante do indivíduo, que lhe permite formar laços afetivos e emocionais com outrem e é construída desde a infância. Esta vai influenciar o futuro vários níveis, nomeadamente a nível emocional, afetivo, de socialização com os outros, e até ter impacto na saúde. Quanto mais segura for a vinculação maior facilidade haverá no futuro, para criar relações com os outros, enquanto que quanto mais insegura for, maior dificuldades existirão no processo. A vinculação entre humanos e animais, torna-se cada vez mais, um tema de interesse para estudo, uma vez que, já existem algumas evidências de que este vínculo ajuda, tanto os humanos como os animais, a vários níveisN/
