    Essa dissertação discute a Saúde Geral e a Qualidade de Vida (QV) das modelos de moda em Goiânia. Tem como foco principal identificar, descrever e analisar a percepção de modelos de moda sobre a própria Saúde Geral e a QV relacionadas ao seu trabalho. Este estudo se justifica no fato de que são escassas as investigações brasileiras sobre a Saúde Geral e a QV de modelos de moda, bem como pelo fato de que informações produzidas sobre a QV do trabalhador, usualmente, são feitos quando os mesmos apresentam problemas de saúde, sendo poucos os estudos de QV com população sem diagnóstico clínico. A dissertação está organizada em formato híbrido: Introdução, capítulo de Percurso Metodológico e dois produtos em formato de artigos. No primeiro artigo a metodologia é quantitativa, descritiva, exploratória e transversal. Realizou-se o estudo com 45 modelos filiadas em uma agência de moda na cidade de Goiânia por meio do Whoqol Bref e do Questionário de Saúde Geral (QSG). As correlações entre QSG e WHOQOL Bref foram significativas e negativas entre a satisfação da Saúde Geral e a tensão e ao estresse psíquico, a autoeficácia e os sintomas psicossomáticos. O Domínio Psicológico da QV apresentou correlação significativa com a maioria dos itens do QSG, com exceção do distúrbio do sono. O Domínio Físico da QV também apresentou correlação significativa com a Autoeficácia. Conclui-se que quando existe satisfação da QV, a modelo encontra-se em bom estado Psicológico e Físico. No artigo dois, utilizou-se a metodologia qualitativa de análise de conteúdo de Bardin afim de compreender e avaliar o significado de QV e os sentidos produzidos relativos aos aspectos da Saúde Geral e da QV de modelos profissionais de moda, utilizando como instrumento a entrevista semiestruturada. Participaram oito modelos de moda, da cidade de Goiânia, componentes de um estudo mais amplo, que responderam a uma entrevista realizada por meio de um roteiro semiestruturado. Foram quatro as categorias temáticas produzidas: Qualidade de Vida, Saúde, Profissão Modelo de Moda e Estratégias de Enfrentamento. Por meio dessas categorias, observaram-se a produção de várias dualidades: terem êxito na área profissional significa uma boa QV, mesmo que a Saúde Geral, a afetividade e o social não estejam. No que refere-se à Saúde Geral, os significados construídos estão reduzidos a afirmação ou negação de doença física. Conclui-se que a visão parcializada da Saúde Geral impacta negativamente as condições de Qualidade de Vida associado ao trabalho das modelos de moda.This dissertation discusses the understanding of General Health and Quality of Life (QL) of the fashion models in Goiânia. It focuses on identifying, describing and analyzing the perception of fashion models about the QL related to their work and their General Health, describing their sociodemographic profile, assessing the participants' QL in their physical, social, family and psychological aspects, as well as evaluating general health indicators such as: stress or psychic stress, death wish, lack of confidence in performance or self-efficacy, sleep disturbances, psychosomatic disorders, and absence of mental health or mental illness severity. Thus, being able to correlate QL and General Health of fashion models, evaluating the meaning of QL for each one in order to understand the senses produced relative to the aspects of General Health and QL of professional fashion models. This study is justified by the fact that Brazilian research on QL and General Health of fashion models is scarce, as well as the fact that information produced on workers' QL is usually made when they present health problems, with few studies of QL with population without clinical diagnosis. The dissertation is organized in two articles, the first of which is quantitative, descriptive, exploratory and transversal. The study was carried out with 45 models affiliated with a fashion agency in the city of Goiânia through the Whoqol Bref and the General Health Questionnaire (QSG). The correlations between QSG and WHOQOL Bref were significant and negative between General Health satisfaction in relation to stress and psychic stress, self efficacy and psychosomatic symptoms. The psychological domain showed a significant correlation with most of the relationships, except for the sleep disorder. The physical domain also showed a significant correlation with self-efficacy. It is concluded that when there is QL satisfaction the model is in good psychological and physical state. In article two, the qualitative methodology of content analysis of Bardin was used to understand and evaluate the meaning of QL and the senses produced related to the aspects of General Health and QL of professional fashion models, using as instrument the semi interview Structured. Eight fashion models from the city of Goiânia participated in a larger study that answered an interview conducted through a semi-structured script. There were four thematic categories produced: Quality of Life, Health, Professional Fashion Model and Coping Strategies. Through these categories, the production of several dualities was observed: to succeed in the professional area means a good QL, even if General Health, affectivity and social are not. With regard to General Health, the constructed meanings are reduced to affirmation or denial of physical illness. It is concluded that the biased view of General Health negatively impacts the Quality of Life conditions associated to the work of fashion models

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    A ACESSIBILIDADE DA PSICOLOGIA CLÍNICA A PESSOAS SURDAS

    Full text link
    A Psicologia é uma ciência que se propõe a estudar o indivíduo em sua subjetividade e a compreendê-lo dentro de seu contexto histórico, social, cultural e biológico. Desse modo, este estudo buscou realizar uma revisão bibliográfica de como esta ciência tem atuado em relação às pessoas surdas e como ela está acessível para essa população. Utilizou-se, para coleta de dados, artigos científicos, monografias e teses, com publicações entre 2017 e 2022, por meio das plataformas Google Acadêmico, SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) e PEPSIC (Periódicos Eletrônicos de Psicologia). A revisão foi norteada com base no objetivo geral: verificar a atuação da Psicologia Clínica com pessoas surdas no Brasil atualmente; e, específicos: discorrer sobre os conceitos ligados à Psicologia inclusiva e acessível à pessoa surda; identificar as dificuldades do surdo na procura por apoio psicológico; e, analisar como a formação acadêmica prepara os futuros psicólogos para uma atuação inclusiva. Conclui-se que a atenção psicológica para surdos é precária devido à falta de profissionais que se comuniquem pela LIBRAS e conheçam sobre a comunidade surda. Além disso, o recurso bibliográfico sobre a atuação da Psicologia na atualidade é limitado, o que evidencia a necessidade de trabalhar a temática no meio acadêmico e a realizar mais estudos nessa área.

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
