The literature has produced evidence that: (a) the early assessment and intervention in social skills can prevent and overcome problematic behaviors; (b) in the case of assessment, there are limits and advantages to different procedures generally used as well as a consensus about the importance of the multimodal design; (c) studies that investigate the relation among data obtained using different procedures, such as observation and informants reports are still scarce, mainly, with preschoolers; (d) analyzes of convergences and divergences between informants reports and between different procedures can produce important information to plan intervention to promote social skills and reduce problem behaviors in the childhood. In this way, the present study had as objectives: (1) To verify similarities and differences in the assessment of social competence with comparisons among four groups of children (with good social skills repertoire - SSB; with internalizing problematic behaviors - IPB, externalizing - EPB e mixed - MPB) in each kind of assessment (mother s report, teacher s report and observation) and comparing the three kinds of assessment to each group; (2) To characterize convergences and divergences between different informants and procedures, with comparisons among groups and intragroups. Based on a sample of 152 children evaluated by Preschool Kindergarten Behaviors Scales (PKBS), 26 children were selected and distributed to each one of the groups. These children participated in five structured situations that were recorded and analyzed by judges previously trained. In the interviews, mothers and teachers reported how the children s performance in each structured situation would have been. The data were analyzed by descriptive and non-parametric inferential statistics. The results indicated that: (1) to each group, the evaluation of social competence by mother s and teacher s reports and by observation were consistent; (2) only the teacher s evaluation differentiated the groups - the children of CHS group presented the best scores of social skills and the CPI group, the worst scores; (3) the convergences between report s data and of observation, in general, were the highest in the CHS group and the lowest in CPI group, except to comparison between mother report and observation, with the most convergence to CPE group. Possible reasons to explain the lowest convergence in the group CPI are highlighted, and methodological, clinical and educational implications are discussed, suggesting plans of intervention based on these results.

IBGE estimative for relative Brazilian elderly participation was 9.49% in 2008 and 29.75% in 2050. However, the country has been organized to define public policy to elderly people. Health Family Program has been presented as a strategy to consolidate this policy. Physical therapy participates of this system with a different perspective. It is also performing prevention and health promotion practices. If it‟s known functional mobility and fall risks between among elderly people, could contribute for a health diagnostic that direct decisions related to therapeutic projects in Health Family Unit with the purpose of falls and disability prevention. Despite of it has been established that different training exercise programs could be efficient to prevent falls and disability, it is not known the effects of a low-intensity resistance, balance and coordination program with great adhesion among community-dwelling elderly women. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the mobility and risk for falls in elderly people living in Health Family program area and to analyze the effects of a group-based low intensity exercise training program for mobility, postural control, isometric torque, isokinetic torque, power and time acceleration and quality of life among community-dwelling elderly women. Methods: Initially, elderly from Health Family Program area were evaluated through Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Timed Up & Go test (TUG) and answered about fall events in the last year. After, elderly women were invited to a group-based low intensity exercise training program for 12 weeks. Women that consent to participate were randomized through sealed envelopes. Training group performed stretching exercises, ankle and knee muscle strengthening and balance training for 12 weeks, two days per week under the supervision of a physiotherapist. Participants in the control group did not undergo any training and were instructed to maintain their usual level of physical activity. 28 community-dwelling elderly women completed the study. They were evaluated through isometric peak torque and isokinetic peak torque, power and time acceleration 60 e 120/s; postural control at stable force platform BERTEC at bipodal stance with eyes opened and closed and unipodal and tandem stance; mobility by Timed Up & Go test; functional balance by Berg Balance Scale; and, quality of life by World Health Organization quality of life questionnaire abbreviated version (WHOQOL-bref). Statistical analyses were performed by ANOVA Kruskal-Wallis, Mann Whitney U, Wilcoxon and Chi-square tests. The level of significance used for all comparisons was 5% (p ≤ 0.05). Results: Participants who had suffered at least one fall in the last year presented the worst value in the TUG when compared to non-fallers (p<0.001). Women prevalence were higher for fallers (p<0.001). No significant association was found between falls and cognitive impairment by MMSE (p=0.11). TUG performance presents significant difference for different elderly age groups (p<0.001). Training group presented a significant improvement to Psychological Domain after 12-week training. Control group presented a significant impairment for General Score and Physical and Psychological Domais. Training group also presented a significant increase to isokinetic peak torque at 60/s for knee flexors, knee extensors and ankle plantar flexors; power at 60/s for knee extensors and knee flexors, ankle dorsiflexors and plantar flexors. It was also observed a significant increase to isokinetic peak torque at 120/s knee flexors and extensors; power at 120/s for knee flexors and extensors. Time acceleration presented a significant decrease for knee extensors and ankle dorsiflexors at 60°/s and knee extensors at 120°/s. Furthermore, training group presented a significant improvement to performance at TUG that was maintained after 12 weeks that the training finished. Conclusion: Low-intensity group-based exercise training program may be efficient to improve knee isometric peak torque and knee and ankle isokinetic peak torque, power and time acceleration and performance at TUG.

Interactions between endofagous insects in fruits play an important role in ecological communities, since the seed survivorship and hence the successes in recruitment of plant populations are directed related to damage caused by the herbivory from these insects. Because of the specialization of the herbivorous insects, the insect-plant interactions tend to be structured in compartments of insects which use different groups of plant. The aims of this study were: (1) to identify if insect-plant interactions in fruits of the cerrado are compartmented; and (2) to identify if plant species in compartments are related. With two monthly field trips, the fruits of 34 plant species were sampled. The insects that emerged from fruits were classified in morphospecies. A correspondence analysis was used to identify the compartments. About 97 morphospecies of insects were identified. Although there is no consensus if the competitive forces structure the compartmented networks or, if directly or indirectly, chemicals defences of plants, the compartmentation seems to be an overall characteristic of food webs and, thus, of insect-plant networks. There is also evidence of the role of the phylogeny in the structure of compartmented networks.

In Brazil there is a numerical predominance of river systems, which favors the construction of reservoirs. These reservoirs have great ecological, economic and social significance, so, the management, conservation and recovery of these systems are of fundamental importance with repercussions on the economy, social work and the uses of aquatic systems. Climatological phenomena, such as the passage of cold fronts, are important factors that influence the water quality of reservoirs. Given this, this work aimed to study the influence of cold fronts in the mechanisms of function of the hydroelectric reservoir of Carlos Botelho (Lobo/Broa), the change in the phytoplankton community, in the destratification of the water column and the change in chemical and physical composition of the reservoir, thus contributing to the understanding of the phenomenon of global circulation of aquatic systems, especially in shallow reservoirs. Two samples were collected for this work, one in the dry season and another in the wet season. The environmental variables were collected in the water column, resulting in the vertical profile of the reservoir. The results show that before the passage of the cold front, during periods of low wind speed, we could see the stratification formed in the water column. During the passage of the cold front, the stress of wind increase and the solar radiation decrease and temperature decreases, promoting vertical mixing of water, resulting in the destratified water column and thus providing homogeneity of physical and chemical variables and the resuspension of nutrients and diatoms that were dormant in the sediment and their rapid multiplication in the water column.

The paradigm of stimulus equivalence has been widely studied, with different populations. Several studies have investigated the variables that can influence the formation and maintenance of equivalent stimulus classes. Regarding to formation, some authors point that the structure of train CaN and the arrangement simple to complex can facilitate this formation. Regarding to maintenance, some authors propose, for example, that classes with higher number of stimuli are more stable and are easier to be remembered over time. Despite the diversity of populations studied with procedures derived from the paradigm of stimulus equivalence, there is still a lack of studies with the elderly population. In order to enlarge the knowledge about the generality of the phenomenon of formation and maintenance of equivalent classes stimulus, this study proposed to investigate the formation of equivalent classes of different sizes and the role of this size in the maintenance of the classes with participants between 60 and 75 years. The procedure of matching-to-sample was used to teach three classes of equivalent stimuli composed of three or six stimulus (Condition 1 and Condition 2). The experimental procedure consisted of a training phase of baseline relations and testing of emerging relations, and six weeks after the first phase, a test was done with the emerging and learned relations to check the maintenance of classes formed. All participants showed the emergence of classes of equivalent stimulus. Three participants showed immediate emergency and five delayed emergency. All the participants who went through Condition 1 had percentages of correct responses below 90% in the test done after six weeks, while participants who underwent Condition 2 had hit percentages above 90%. Since most participants from Condition 2 showed accuracy right in the beginning of the test, it was not possible to evaluate the recovery of the relations throughout the test made six weeks later. This performance showed that the size of the class may be a relevant variant that influences the stability of the class over time, since the participants in the condition that trained with larger classes had better results on this test. This paper presents contributions to the studies of stimulus equivalence, since studies with this population are rare, and to understanding the factors involved in the formation and maintenance of stimulus equivalence.

Gas filtration is one of the most important methods used in gas-solid separation. During a filtration process, a gas containing an amount of solid particles passes through a porous filter medium which retains the particles. Particles are deposited throughout the filtration process forming a porous cake. The resistance to gas flow through the filter increases when the filtration cake is formed, which makes pressure drop increase. Once pressure drop is considered relatively high, the cake must be removed with cleaning processes in order to minimize resistance to gas flow and, consequently minimize operational cost. Thus, cake removal enhancements might represent important earnings, besides contributing to filtration process improvements. Therefore, this study had the objective of investigating the behavior of gas filtration cake removal from filter media through the determination of adhesion force per unit area in different operational conditions. This parameter is very important during dust cake removal, once it makes it possible to propose the best operational conditions for a more efficient removal. In this work, two types of particulate matter, phosphate concentrate and manioc starch, and three types of filter media, polypropylene, acrylic and polyester, were studied. Three superficial filtration velocities (5; 7.5 and 10 cm/s) and five different amounts of powder deposited on the filter medium, which respectively correspond to 0.039; 0.055; 0.064; 0.071 and 0.088g/cm2, were also examined. The dust cakes removal was performed by using the reverse air flow method, being the dust cakes submitted to various successive cleaning velocities. Therefore, each filter medium was cleaned at a lower velocity and, immediately afterwards, at a higher velocity, going through the following cleaning velocities 0.5; 1; 2; 3; 6; 9; 12 and 15 cm/s. Thus, a value of pressure drop was obtained for each cleaning velocity. The adhesion force per unit area was acquired with the method proposed by Seville et al. (1989). From the results obtained, it was verified that the values of adhesion force per unit area found were not influenced by the amount of powder deposited per unit area; the experimental data fit a single curve; the phosphate concentrate presented higher values of adhesion force per unit area when compared to the manioc starch; adhesion force values increased with the increase in gas superficial filtration velocity for both phosphate concentrate and manioc starch; the polypropylene felt presented the highest removal tension values followed by the acrylic and polyester felts; and that the higher the removal tension values the lower the values obtained for the effective separation distance between particles.

The Hymenoptera parasitoids are a key group in establishing priorities in programs aimed at conservation, given the high proportion of the diversity of insects. The parasitoids have great importance in maintenance of the environmental balance in population control of various species of hosts. This paper proposes a faunistic survey of the material deposited in the Coleção Taxonômica do Departamento de Ecologia e Biologia Evolutiva da Universidade Federal de São Carlos (DCBU). Samples were collected in 11 municipalities of São Paulo, each with a collection point, except the municipality of São Carlos with 6 points. For the capture of insects, were used: Malaise trap, water-pan trap, light trap and "sweeping" of the vegetation. We studied Doryctinae 2.031 individuals distributed in 36 genera described valid. The municipality of San Carlos had the highest number of Doryctinae obtained from 865 individuals and frequency of occurrence of 42.61%. Santa Rita do Passa Quatro was the location that showed the greatest wealth of genres, 22 in all, and also the largest number of genera exclusive to the location (4) in the study. Heterospilus Haliday was the dominant genus with almost 80% of the total specimens collected (1.603). Most Doryctinae studied were collected by sweeping the vegetation with 61% of the total Doryctinae collected by this technique (1.239). Although about half of the biome has been destroyed or turned into various types of land use, and rather fragmented, the Cerrado in São Paulo had become very abundant and rich in genus of the Doryctinae. Was described 3 new species and recorded 3 new genera for the Cerrado.

Through a critical reading of Skinner s works it was intended to clarify ambiguitiesconcerning scientific and philosophical communities regarding the concepts of rule and verbalstimulus. It was also sought an appropriate statement of creative behavior and thoughtconcepts according to Skinner s Radical Behaviorism. This research had, therefore, a twofoldobjective which was to identify: (1) Skinnerian interpretation of creative behavior and thoughtand (2) Skinner s conception of rule and rule-governed behavior. The steady relation pointedout by B. F. Skinner among the concepts of verbal stimulus, rule and creative behavior and, atthe same time, the controversy spread out by Skinner s commentators and scientists, seeking asufficient and non-ambiguous definition of rule, mainly justifies this study enterprise. Usually, these commentators treat verbal stimulus and rule concepts as identical, being thisidentity a satisfying condition for a definition of the latter as a corollary of the statementsrelating to the Verbal Behavior matter. Moreover, commonly Skinner s work reviewersdefine creative behavior as a variation or unit recombination, which implies supposing thatcreative behavior does not differ from other emissions of operant behavior, since the variationis a ubiquitous characteristic on behavior emissions according to Skinnerian model ofselection by consequences. Part of this study consisted in demonstrating how an explanationof the distinctions existing between verbal stimulus and rule can collaborate with a preciseand productive definition of complex and creative human behavior without losing sight of thebehavioral interpretation object s inherent characteristics. Aiming these goals, the course ofresearch went the following route: (1) identification, in texts by the author, of the conceptsunderlying behavioral interpretation; (2) a systematic analysis of the verbal stimulus concepton its possible behavioral functions and, thus, also its relation to the rule concept; (3) theformulation of an alternate interpretation of creative behavior and rule-governed behaviorbased on Skinnerian explanatory system. Finally, there was a brief foray into formulations ofDewey and Wertheimer on creative behavior and thinking in order to, thereby, outlinepossible convergence on interpretative perspectives brought by the three authors. Among themost important results, it was demonstrated that: (1) simply presume variability does notexplain creative behavior, not only from B. F. Skinner perspective, but neither from JohnDewey s and Max Wertheimer s; (2) four Skinner notions are fundamental in a conceptualrelation between behavioral analysis and interpretation: strength, property, continuum andcomplexity; (3) rule is not defined as verbal stimulus and neither it is a conceptual subcategoryof this kind of stimulation; (4) creative behavior is necessarily complex andorganized, and its structure is functionally defined; (5) rule is one of the creative complexbehavior elements; and (6) rule is a new complex discriminative stimulus with a functionalcomplication typical of a creative emission, although it is not restricted to this behavioralcontext.

The phenomena of fructose crystal nucleation and growth in different media, and its water and ethanol/water solubility curves, which were the base of this process, were studied through the fructose crystallization process. The main objective of this work was to study the process of fructose crystallization in solution by partially changing the solvent in attempt to perform a more efficient crystallization. This change was studied by adding ethanol as a fructose anti-solvent and miscible in the solution with the intention of reducing solute solubility. The addition of a second compound to the medium generated the conditions to the fructose effective crystallization. Information that make it possible to improve the control of crystalline product final properties, such as crystal size distribution (CSD) and crystal habit, were obtained from the completion of the present study. The combined method of cooling with anti-solvent addition successfully provided fructose crystallization. The best condition observed in this work was the trial where 66.2 g of fructose were used in 10 g of water and 60 g of added ethanol, because once a lower amount of ethanol was applied, the crystallization occurred in lesser induction time and the yield of 96,8%.

This research, realized in Londrina (PR) through in-depth qualitative interviews with psychoanalysts and people who do lacanian analysis, and participant observation in a group of lacanian studies, aims to analyse, in this specific ethnographic context, a version of the modern Western notion of person produced by the lacanian clinic based on the concepts such as metonymic desire, structural lack and desiring subject. The forms of subjectivity handled by this method of treatment encompass concepts of suffering, unconscious, healing, health and disease which operate as a system of thought assimilated into the production of a new conception of the self. This conception appeared articulated in the process of constitution of a desiring subject, resulting from a theory of desire that characterizes the lack as a way of being. Thus, the Lacanian psychoanalysis capitalizing certain notion of person that serves as a translation of a code present in the Western capitalist society, as the free and autonomous individual condemned to an endless quest for satisfaction that can never be achieved. The fieldwork also allowed to reach, besides the specifics of Lacanianism in Londrina, part of the universe "psi" of that city.

In lotic environments, the benthic fauna is generally well developed and constitutes a community of great importance in the functioning of these ecosystems. The benthic macroinvertebrates participate in food chains, mineralization processes, recycling of organic matter, energy flow and therefore are useful in the monitoring of environmental quality. The purpose of this study was to analyze the limnological characteristics and their influence on the structure and diversity of macroinvertebrate benthic in a stretch of the Upper São Francisco River and its tributary, Piumhi River. The samplings were carried out in two climatic periods, the dry season (October 2006 and 2007) and the rainy season (March 2007 and 2008), sampling up three points in Piumhi River and six points in São Francisco River. Based on the limnological data the rivers can not be considered eutrophic, presenting relatively low levels of nutrients (total and dissolved). The waters of both rivers studied showed trophic state ranging from ultraoligotrophic to oligotrophic. The sediments of São Francisco River was predominantly formed by sand and clay whereas the sediment of Piumhi River was mainly formed by sand. On October 2006, March 2007, October 2007 and March 2008 there were 19, 14, 44 and 7 taxa in Piumhi River and 29, 42, 36 and 31 taxa in São Francisco River, respectively. There were greater richness of taxa and diversity of benthic macroinvertebrates in São Francisco River than in Piumhi River, whereas regarding the numerical abundance the opposite was verified. The only constant taxa were Polypedilum in Piumhi River (October 2006) and Smicridea in São Francisco River (March 2007). In both rivers, the highest values of abundance and density were recorded for the family Chironomidae during dry periods. Phyllocycla and Gomphoides showed highest values of biomass in Piumhi and São Francisco Rivers, respectively, evidencing their potential to transfer energy to other levels of the food chain and the need to utilize different metrics for studying communities. In Piumhi River there were 7 functional trophic groups while in São Francisco River only 5 groups were recorded, being collectors the dominant groups in both rivers. There was a greater similarity between the macroinvertebrates assemblages within each river sampled in the four periods, than between the rivers studied. The canonical correlation analyses evidenced that sediment characteristics and limnological variables were the principal factores that influenced the distribution of Chironomidae genera.

In Being and Nothingness, Sartre defines man as a hopelessly free being. But thus, iffreedom is our main predicate, would it be possible to think a relationship between differentfreedoms which was not limited to a mere intersubjective conflict, that is, would it be possibleto conceive a theory of the other in Sartre that was not reduced to a clash of freedoms? Theaim of the dissertation is to demonstrate that, despite intersubjectivity be presented in theessay on phenomenological ontology as essentially conflictive, it is possible, already in thisbook, glimpse the overture to think about interpersonal relations of positive reciprocity, thatis, relations able to overcome the inherent conflict of Being-for-others.

The aim of this work is to examine some of the psychic aspects of the process of acquisition of verbal language in the theory of Freud. In a psychoanalytical perspective, this process takes place in the individual itself as well as in culture as a whole. Accordingly we examine it in its different stages, up to the point when the individual has acquired the use of verbal language. Even then, traces can be located of the process that led to language as such in verbal wit, in works of art, and in psychoanalytic therapy as conceived by Freud. Special emphasis is given to the mutual dependence, stated by Freud, between the physiological and psychological processes involved in the formation of language. Given that for Freud language arises in the individual at a moment when consciousness and the unconscious are yet to be completely separated from each other, it is only natural that he conceives the mechanisms that operate in grammatical languages to be absent and the symbols of expression to signify nothing beside themselves. Freudian conception of primeval language can then be said to be symbolic in the strong, philosophical acceptation of the term, as defined by Schelling: in this transitory form of language, words are not signs of conceptions nor do they point to external things, they are rather taken as things in themselves, complete and independent from all external reference. For Freud, their use prepares the individual for the advent of indirect, allegorical use of words that is typical of languages in their plain, grammatical form. But symbolic language does not disappear completely and without trace from the psyche, once verbal language has settled. Verbal wit, works of art, psychoanalytical therapy are instances of the permanence of the symbolic use of words in the realm of culture, and are as such to be taken as means of access to the unconscious.

Evaluation of quality and quantity of water contributes to the strategic decisionmaking policies and techniques to ensure the potential use of this resource for agriculture, industry, animal watering and for human consumption. In order to assist the governing of the Rico stream watershed to create mechanisms and effective action to combat pollution from this resource this study was conducted. In 2006 the treatment sewage plant in the city of Monte Alto was established in this basin. The city of Jaboticabal, that uses the water of the stream Rico for human consumption, is located dowstream of this plant. Chemical, physical and microbiological analysis, were carried out in various parts of this basin. There was a significant variation in the water quality in this watershed between the dry and wet stations. It is concluded that the tributary that drains the area of the town of Monte Alto and its treatment sewage plant impairs the quality of water in this basin.

The ethanol dehydrocoupling in ethyl acetate distinguishes among the reactions of alcohol transformation in products with higher added value. Due to the possibility of obtaining ethanol from biomass in Brazil, the production of ethyl acetate is of great interest, being their production very economical. The ethanol dehydrocoupling in ethyl acetate was studied over Cu/ZrO2 catalysts prepared by impregnation method followed by calcinations in air. The samples with different Cu loadings were characterized by thermal analyze, X-Ray powder diffraction, determination of the specific surface area, temperature-programmed reduction (TPR), decomposition of N2O and X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). TPR results showed the formation of low temperature reduction Cu species (peaks α1, α2 e β) predominant at low loadings of supported Cu in ZrO2, these species are attributed to CuO highly dispersed on support. The increase of Cu loading caused the formation of CuO bulk species with high temperature reduction (peaks γ1 e γ2). XPS results for Cu/ZrO2 reduced catalysts showed that an increase in the Cu loading caused a shift in the Cu 2p3/2 peak to regions of lower biding energy. The spectra of Cu Auger region suggest that a decrease in the Cu loading increases the ratio of Cu+/Cuo species. Catalytic tests for dehydrocoupling reaction of ethanol were carried out at atmospheric pressure and showed an increasing activity per Cu site for ethyl acetate formation with the increase in the dispersion of supported Cu. Furthermore, the by-products formation due the acetaldehyde via aldol condensation occurs on the ZrO2 support surface. Also, it could be seen that catalysts with Cu loading up to 20% showed an increase in the ethyl acetate selectivity with an increase in the Cu loading. This can be attributed to the higher ZrO2 coating by active phase providing the suppression of by-products that are formed via aldol condensation.

This work has the dialectics as its main theme and aims to present Max Weber s thought before the legacy of German idealism, i.e., by the particular way that Hegel (as much as Marxism) has defined dialectics in history. Dialectics will be investigated inside Max Weber s historical typologies as a product of history and reason together. We serve ourselves of two histories of philosophy, that of the Windelband and of Lukács, and from those two perspectives our object is approached by a philosophical as well as a historical and sociological perspective. Thus, we shall observe how the uses of Weber s types are immerged inside the same limits and philosophical legacy of Kant and Hegel.

This thesis makes a social history of the organizational process of rural syndical movement in Brazil, with analytical focus in the Zona da Mata of Pernambuco. It has as objective to understand the instituting process of social and syndical rural movements in the region, and its historical formation, organization and consolidation, between 1950 and 1974. In this direction, he looked for to apprehend the dynamics of the social and political nets, that made to appear a new process in Brazil from the 1950 , where rural workers, as new actors, enter in the scene politics in search of citizenship and social inclusion; and the dynamic of the left parties interested and engaged in the practical organizational of rural man and its relations with institutional forces of the State and the Church. In the end, this study argues the practical instituting process for inside and outside of rural syndical organization in Brazil and, mainly, in the mata pernambucana, after-1964, and its relations with the Brazilian authoritarian state and the authoritarian experiences produced in this relation, with the ideological version of creation of a syndicate of associates.

Morro da Conceição is located in the quarter of Saúde, the port area of Rio de Janeiro, and is an important historical site in the city that currently presents a special case of territorial dispute between a group of residents who self-recognized as Black Community of the Pedra do Sal and a religious order called Venerável Ordem Terceira de São Francisco da Penitência - VOT. Based on ethnographic research done at 2008 year, we tried to understand how were organized networks of sociability among inhabitants in the context of territorial dispute. During the ethnographic excursion, other relationships were being revealed in the everyday practices. From an intricate mesh of sociability that mixed interests and agents, a detailed thread conflict was being discovered. The ethnographic experience allowed us to see that the problems involved in the discourses and projects of revitalization of port area affected the territory, letting observe endeavor to keep its symbolic and spatial diversity. Thus, conflicts appeared as constituting sociability and were mixed in the most usual relations. Analyzing the brazilian context concerning Black Communities is possible to understand the construction of social networks and political representations. The sociability‟s studies revealed the Morro da Conceição as a singular space that transits between being city and being slum .

Fishes as well as other group of species can accrue benefits from adapting to aerobic exercises. Examples of these benefits are: higher growth and feed conversion rates, less aggressive behavior, and optimization of non-nitrogenous nutrient as source of metabolic energy. The aim of this work was to evaluate growth and metabolic responses of pacu (Piaractus mesopotamicus) to aerobic swimming speeds and diets, varying in proportions of carbohydrates and lipids. Two experiments were carried out. One of it aimed to determining the ideal aerobic swimming speed for pacu; three speeds were compared: 1 body-length per second (BL/sec), 2 BL/sec, and 3 BL/sec besides a control treatment (non-exercised). In the second experiment the fish were kept at non-exercising or swimming at the ideal speed determined in the previous experiment, and submitted to different feeding regimes, in which the diets presented varying proportions (%) of carbohydrate and lipid, respectively: 27/15, 36/10 and 45/5. In both experiments, treatment effects were evaluated in terms of zootechnical parameters, several hematological variables, and intermediary plasmatic, hepatic and muscle tissue (white and red) intermediary metabolites and several metabolic enzyme activities. It was concluded from the first experiment that swimming at 2 BL/sec was ideal for pacu, considering the comparatively higher rate of growth and a metabolic response indicative of a higher utilization of non-protein sources for energy production. The spare-protein effect was also observed under the 1 and 2 BL/sec treatments while higher levels of protein oxidation, possibly for the maintenance of energy levels, and adequate levels of glycemia were observed in the individuals kept swimming at 3 BL/seg. In the second experiment, the best growth rates were presented by swimming fishes kept under the 36/10 feeding regime; a higher participation of lipids as metabolic energy supplier was also noted under this regime. It was concluded that pacu submitted to aerobic swimming at 2 BL/sec and fed with diet containing 36% lipids and 10% carbohydrates presented better growth performance and higher efficiency in directing non-protein sources for metabolic energy production.
