    The book The Woman in the class society: Myth and reality of Heleieth Saffioti (1969) is considered a milestone in women's studies in Brazil, pioneering and inaugurating an entire field of studies in the area of Brazilian sociology. The theoretical developments that involve the author's thesis of free-teaching are vast, as well as its use in feminist theory, being considered as a reference. The general objective of this research is to analyze the pioneering work of Heleieth Saffioti and its contribution, especially with the concept of patriarchy, post as an embryonic in this research. The methodology used is mainly bibliographical. The current of the book will be analyzed in this research, as well as concerns caused by it, and the non-exhaustion of the central theme that is presented. In this research, we will mobilize concepts within the area of gender studies, through a contemporary debate with a cut of theoreticians, to understand and interpret the discussions about the concept of patriarchy in sociological theory: as was used by the author and by theoretical and theoretical in the decades of 1980 and 1990 and, currently, by different perspectives of feminist theory.

    The yellow-chinned spinetail is a Furnariid that, as many other neotropical species, has few aspects of its biology fully studied. It’s been a known host for the stripped cuckoo (Tapera naevia) for years. However, this particular host-parasite system has never been studied. The present study was conducted in a marsh area in the municipality of Santa Bárbara d’Oeste, state of São Paulo, in the reproductive seasons of 2017/2018 and 2018/2018. Through capture and marking of individuals and active search for nests, we built a database about the reproductive biology of this species and the parasitism by T. naevia rates. The first chapter is about the reproductive aspects of the species. The reproductive season lasted from late September to February; The annual fecundity of this population was 0,33 C. cinamomeus and 0.66 T. naevia per female, showing that brood parasitism is the main constrain to the reproduction of C. cinnamomeus in this population. The incubation period was 17 days, and fledging period of 18 days. Reproductive breeding pairs built from 1 to 4 nests during the reproductive season (average of 2.8). The second chapter is about the brood parasitism by T. naevia. Using GLM analysis we tested the hypothesis that the tubular nest entrance might be a constrain to the parasite. Our data didn’t corroborate this hypotheses. Further, no other aspect of nest architecture seems to influence the likelihood of parasitism. The only aspect that showed a negative correlation with the likelihood of a nest being parasitizes by T. naevia was vegetation coverage above the nest. This indicates that T. naevia might use visual cues to locate host’s nests, and vegetation coverage might conceal host activity, making more concealed nests less likely of being parasitized. This study is the first to address specifically the reproductive biology of C. cinnamomeus and this particular parasite-host system.

    This research is the result of concerns about the different ways of thinking and approaching the natural sciences for children. It assumes that prior to attending school children already have contact with aspects of scientific culture through the media, of contact with parents and other adults or older children, or through direct contact with science-related elements and phenomena. In this sense, this study aims to understand the vision of Science and Child that underlies the means of scientific dissemination that are intended for children. Firstly, to conduct this qualitative research, a theoretical framework was built on what would be understood as a child and its relationship with science. Childhood is being understood as a social category and children as social actors, members of this category and producers of cultures. Subsequently, programs were selected that aimed to disseminate science to children, in order to analyze some episodes of the same. Three programs were selected: “Earth to Luna”, “The Scientist Sid” and “The Mika’s Diary”. We sought a methodology that was adequate to analyze television programs, arriving at Content Analysis, focused on what is proposed by Laurence Bardin. Data analysis was performed through episodes clippings and based on the dialogues that occurred in them. From the research it was possible to understand that when the program is intended for the dissemination of science to children, there is the emergence of a new stereotype of making and disseminating science and the idea that has about the viewer child. There is great difficulty when it comes to disseminating science to this audience and at the same time respecting the children's universe, its singularities and not overlapping them.

    Supply Chain Management (SCM) is defined as the management of the organization's network of relationships, from the original suppliers to end customers. The Procurement process, which is part of the SCM, aims to ensure supply, access, and management of the external resources that an organization needs to achieve its strategic objectives. In addition, the Procurement process is related to the reduction of costs and, consequently, the improvement of the company´s financial performance. The purpose of this paper is to identify the constructs and practices are under the Procurement process, which can affect the financial performance of a sugarcane´s company, based on Procurement and Finance managers. In order to identify the elements and activities of Purchasing and the financial performance index of the companies impacted by the Procurement process, a systematic review of the literature (SRL) was carried out in Web of Science, Scopus and Scielo databases from 2008 to 2018. Main findings point to the Procurement constructs are information technology, innovation, talent management and procurement structure; as examples of Procurement practices are: cost reduction, supplier relationship management, demand management, and strategic sourcing; and examples of financial index are: return on investment (ROI), return on assets (ROA), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) and sales growth. A large number of recent literature indicates this is a contemporary subject, with space for further development using the methodology of case study, which brings the researcher closer to the studied phenomenon. The results show that all practices and some of constructs Procurement, identified in the literature, were also reinforced by the respondents as being important to contribute to the company´s financial performance, in addition also were discovered new practices and constructs of Procurement that impact the financial performance, such as: analyzing the market and relationship integrated with the business. Thus reinforcing that Procurement affects certain financial indexes, such as a term of payment, profitability and cash flow.

    Renewable polymers are an interesting alternative to synthetic polymers from petrochemical sources. The work aims at the development of nanocomposite films based on pectin and functionalized cellulose nanofibers. The functionalization of nanofibers ocurred by oxidation, mediated by 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-N-oxyl (TEMPO), and by cationization, through nucleophilic substitution by glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMAC), in order to provide interactions with the pectic matrix. Low methoxylation pectin showed Zeta potentials around -35 mV at pH close to 7, which promotes the arrangement of surface charges in the polymer matrix. Nanocomposite films were obtained by discontinuous casting from aqueous suspensions of pectin and cellulose nanofibers, which were characterized for their thermal, mechanical, antimicrobial, rheological and structural properties. The functionalization of the NFC promoted the decrease of the crystallinity due to its influence on the packaging of cellulosic chains, as well as the decrease of the viscosity of the filmogenic suspensions. Antimicrobial analyzes showed inhibition of Escherichia coli growth in filmogenic suspensions containing 1 and 5% oxidized and cationized NFC, respectively. Mechanical tests showed that incorporation of NFC promoted an increase of 2 in tensile strength and of 3 in rupture elongation, which allowed the production of nanocomposites with better mechanical performance.

    Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) have significantly below-expected motor performance for chronological age and skill acquisition opportunities. Their self-efficacy and self-regulation skills are also in decrease. This thesis presents the development and effects of using an intervention program that associates motor training with self-regulation and self-efficacy development strategies for the acquisition of motor skills, focusing on the Participation of the child with DCD. The theoretical assumptions of the intervention program were developed from the Social Cognitive Theory and Motor Learning Theory in the context of children with DCD and the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health adopting evaluation and intervention procedures centred on the child and his/her significant occupations. The practice framework considered the literature review on the various strategies used in research on the subject, among them goal orientation, modelling, self-instruction, goal-directed training, psychosomatic condition control and self-monitoring. The intervention program model consists of three stages: evaluation (establishing the learning goal), ongoing intervention and guided intervention. It was applied to a 7-year old participant following the single-case changing criterion design using qualitative and quantitative analysis results. For the evaluation stage, the following was considered: the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-2), the DCDQ-Brazil identification questionnaire and the Motor Development Scale (EDM), Perceived Efficacy and Goal Setting System (PEGS) - 2nd edition, the Visual Analogue Scale for each Learning Goal, categorization of behaviour for self-regulation, direct observations, effects on Participation and social agents (family) based on journals and interviews. The results showed that implementing the strategies potentiate the learning process of new skills during motor training in children with DCD, considering the performance in motor test batteries, achieving Learning Goals, improving immediate performance in motor activities,impact on their perceived efficacy in other motor activities (secondary goals) and on their participation. Perceived efficacy improved both from the perspective of the child and from their families and teachers. The social validity was determined by reports of those who took part in the research. Future studies using this intervention program are suggested with a larger number of participants in the perspective of reinforcing the evidence about the structure of practice presented in this thesis and its contribution to children with DCD.

    Among the worsening health conditions of hospitalized patients there is the development of pressure injuries. Nursing care for the patient with PI (pressure injuries) risk is still based on the individual knowledge of the nurse, routinely resulting in random and discontinued interventions. To improve the quality of nursing care, it should be supported by a scientific model and methodological reference. The pressure injuries prevention protocols are important instruments to conduct actions on the health care systems with the aim of improving the quality of care. The present investigation is an integrative review that aims to identify bibliographical productions about the effectiveness of the implementation of pressure injuries prevention protocols in hospitalized patients in hospital institutions. The selection of articles was made through the Virtual Library of Health and the sample of this review consists of eight articles regarding the elaboration, implementation and evaluation of pressure injuries prevention in hospital institutions. After analyzing the articles included in the review, the results of the studies indicated the existence of effectiveness in the implementation of prevention injuries protocols.

    This is an ethnography of immigrant-refugees that live or lived in the city of São Paulo which intends to describe the experiences of immigration-refuge in the city. Addressing the processes of consideration of immigration-refuge as a monolithic block, peripheralization and access or not to the city, the experience of racism and the diverse and dynamic hierarchies of alterities formulated by mechanisms of reception and integration / assimilation architected by the State and by supra-state organisms, I argue that unassimilable immigrants-refugees in Brazil go through processes designed to carry out a "temporal update" of cultures and minds considered pre-modern. Unassimilable, because are included by exclusion, are therefore time travelers, originating from the past, not cohabiting present time with modern ones. The perspective from mental health services specialized in immigrants-refugees becomes a privileged locus for apprehending and examining such logics. I also argue that the logic imposed by humanitarianism-gift, a relationship of reciprocity not necessarily altruistic between welfare services and immigrants-refugees, becomes a place of exchanges and dialogues only imagined, projecting on the latters an avocality that, coupled with the equivalences made between them and deafs, demonstrate that deafness in this context is more an incapacity of being heard than to hear. In addition, it shows that the curse of tolerance (Stengers, 2011) divides the world, under the perspectives of reception and integration / assimilation services, between those who believe and those who know, a logic that goes transversally through the mechanisms of "temporal updating" from immigrantsrefugees’ (and any others considered pre-modern) cultures and minds. Finally, I describe how the settlement of this scenario by anthropologists and anthropology can take place, advocating in favor of upholding anthropology as a tool for the production of data and care and, above all, for diplomatic mediation between worlds

    This doctoral thesis proposes sample preparation combined with the use of laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for analysis of difficult-to-mineralize samples focusing on the analytical development of LIBS as well as for the development of sample preparation for the technique. The LIBS technique consists of focusing a laser pulse with high fluence (> GW s-1) under the surface of a sample. Following the incidence of this laser pulse, atoms are vaporized, atomized, ionized and brought into an excited energy state. When atoms and ions return to their lowest energy levels, they release photons of specific wavelengths that are translated into the electromagnetic spectrum. The technique has inherent challenges in the analysis of solid samples, which are mostly its applications, such as microheterogeneity and high limits of detection (LOD). Although the technique has great ability in solid sample analysis, it can also be used for liquid sample analysis, however, some specific problems arise, such as sample splashing with laser pulse impact and low reproducibility, and sample preparation can help minimize them. As goal, the present thesis focuses on the development of sample preparation of nickel ores, solder masks and sunscreens for analysis of elements of interest in each of the presented samples. The strategy for the analysis of nickel ore and sunscreen samples consisted of converting the matrix of liquid to solid in order to minimize the problems inherent to liquid analysis by LIBS. For this, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), a water-soluble polymer, was used. For solder masks, the samples were completely dried on glass support for further analysis. Chemometric tools were used during the work to aid in data processing (normalization), exploratory analysis (PCA (principal component analysis)) and univariate and multivariate calibration (PCR (principal component regression), PLS (partial least squares), MLR (multiple linear regression)).

    The contamination of agricultural lands by pesticides, their overuse and toxicity to many non-target organisms cause serious environmental problems. Therefore, the development of bioremediation methods for distinct active ingredients, such as pyrethroids, is primordial. In this work, the biodegradation of gamma-cyhalothrin (GCH) by fungi from the cave Gruta do Catão was investigated. Experiments were conducted with different fungi strains (Aspergillus ustus CBMAI 1894, Talaromyces brunneus CBMAI 1895 and Aspergillus sp. CBMAI 1926) in 2% Malt liquid medium with 300 mg L-1 of GCH in triplicate employing a validated method. All strains biodegraded this insecticide and the most efficient was Aspergillus ustus with a degradation rate of approximately 50% of the initial GCH concentration in 21 days of experiment. We also conducted an experimental design testing three variables: temperature (25-35 degrees), pH (5,5– 8,5) and pesticide concentration (50-550 mg L-1) being the temperature and pesticide concentration were those that most influenced the biodegradation. So, we concluded that cave fungi biodegraded GCH and can be employed in future studies for enzymatic characterization and bioremediation of contaminated environments.

    The technical-vocational education is historically analyzed as promoter of an education that envisages essentially to lead the subjects to the development of professional competences to meet the demands of the labor market, being politically used for the maintenance of the capitalist economic order. This qualitative research (BODGAN and BIKLEN, 1994; CHIZZOTTI, 2003; CRESWELL, 2010) sought, through a case study (YIN, 2001; GIL, 2002), to analyze the critical aspects and social concerns present. in the course conclusion works (TCC) of students graduating from the Technical Course in Integrated Administration to High School of ETEC de Piedade (SP). The possible influences of the educative practices of teachers of this course, which present critical biases (SAVIANI, 2012; FRIGOTTO, CIAVATA and RAMOS, 2012), on the formation of these students are analyzed. The research data inherent to the course teachers were obtained through interviews, through a script of semi-structured questions (POUPART, 2014). Regarding the students, the research data were obtained through thorough reading of their CBT and conversations conducted through discussion groups (WELLER, 2013). The data obtained indicate that the thematic choices and the development of the students' TCC present significant influences of the subjects of human, political and social formation offered within the Technical Management course, as well as the organizational culture of ETEC de Piedade. These aspects were analyzed according to the assumptions of the Historical-Critical Pedagogy (SAVIANI, 2012; FRIGOTTO, 2012), considering the contradictions between the professional training assumptions of the Administrator and the training offered to students within the scope of ETEC de Piedade. In the Technical Course of Administration of this institution, educational situations are perceived that characterize resistances to the capitalist logic (HILL, 2003) and possibilities of offering a human and citizen formation, which overcomes the essentially technical bias inherent in the technical-vocational courses.

    The purpose of this study is to discuss about the possibilities of participation for people with disabilities in physical-sports programs developed in the state of São Paulo. For this intent, were selected the cities chosen by the Brazilian Federal Government in 2013 to receive the Sports Initiation Centers (CIEs). Initially, was carried out a documentary research in the proposed letters of the 56 cities with the CIE in state of São Paulo, consultation and analysis in legislative documents and public data provided by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) in the survey of sport profile of the Brazilian states and municipalities, in order to understand the organization of sports management in Brazil. In addition, the para-athlete’s profiles who participated in the School Paralympics Games and the São Paulo Regional Games in 2016, 2017 and 2018 were also analyzed. It was observed that actions, projects and programs for people with disabilities are present in all sporting dimensions, that sports and rights councils for people with disabilities are infrequent and very few active – and they are unable to influence the sport policies of the sector, and the fact that there is predominant participation of physically disabled men in Paralympics sporting competitions. In the field research were interviewed the managers of the State Secretariat of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, the Sport State Secretariat and the Brazilian Paralympic Committee. The municipalities of Barueri, Campinas and Jundiaí were chosen for local managers interviews and for a brief observation of the identified programs. The selected cities have different management ways in the sport area: through the resources transfer to associations, partnership with the Municipal Secretariat of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities or by the Sport Municipal Secretariat itself. The managers highlighted the post-event resource's reduction for sports, the public system bureaucracy, the lack of adequate sports structures, the Brazilian clubs-centered sports model, sport as way to social insertion, the value of articulation and partnerships mainly with universities, as well the professional qualification and the experiences exchange between neighboring municipalities. Given the limitations and possibilities of sports management, from the managers and local experiences, it's hoped that data can be extrapolated to understand similar realities.

    This study aims to acknowledge the assigned directions by the teachers who work in daycare centers about early childhood educational assessment from the historical political context of the implementation of the “Guidelines for pedagogical studies in early childhood education in Sorocaba municipal network” (SOROCABA, 2016b). As targeted directions were: to get to know the challenges asserted by the teachers about the evaluation in the kindergarten by the guidelines of the Secretariat of Education; identify it by interviewing teachers what are their methodology on monitoring and develop children’s learning tools and their relationship to assessment and the educators' perceptions of such tools , and investigate how educators understand continuing education in the strategy implementation process. For this, an adopted research used theoretical-methodological references or historical-dialectical materialist and the perspective of historical-cultural theory, specifically, on the concept adopted in Vigotski (2008) and had the participation of four teachers from a public daycare center. Having as methodological strategies: participant observation with records in field diary, semi-structured interviews and documentary consultation. As results pointed out were that: a) an assessment in early childhood education is aimed at monitoring the child's learning and development focusing on behavioral and attitudinal issues and also allows teachers to (re) think their pedagogical practices, as well as revealed that the planning is based on teaching experiences and centered on the expectations of adults on children; b) the existence of various difficulties at school, such as precarious working conditions, high number of children in the classroom, performance of professionals with different backgrounds, teacher insecurity in reporting the children’s difficulties in the report, among other aspects; and c) the discontinuity of continuing education provision and the lack of a training policy that meets the educators’ needs. It is argued that continuing education is guaranteed and built collectively with teachers who work with children, seeking the (re) construction of evaluative practices that respect children as historical characters and their rights; It is also suggested that institutional evaluation be strengthened through greater participation by the families and the school community in order to foster democratic participatory processes on how improving the quality of public schools.

    Evidence suggests that dopamine (DA) is one of the most active neuromodulators in mechanisms underlying states of fear and anxiety. More specifically, during the exposure to aversive conditioned stimuli, there is an increase in the release of DA from the ventral tegmental area (VTA) to structures such as the basolateral amygdala complex (BLA) and nucleus accumbens. Furthermore, results point to a greater involvement of the D2-type DA receptors in conditioned fear expression, since both the administration of the D2 agonist, quinpirole, and the D2 antagonist, sulpiride, cause a significant reduction of conditioned freezing with the action of the drugs in VTA and BLA receptors, respectively. Thus, the general objective of this study is to broaden the evaluation of the effects of D2 receptor blockade in rats on the expression and extinction of conditioned fear. We aim to replicate the previous findings regarding the effects of sulpiride on decreasing the expression of conditioned fear, to test the hypothesis that haloperidol - a D2 antagonist widely used in clinical settings to control symptoms of the acute phase of schizophrenia - would present similar effects to sulpiride, and to extend the characterization of the involvement of DA in conditioned fear by evaluating the effects of these two drugs on extinction processes. For this, 146 male Wistar rats weighing approximately 300 g were used. The animals were trained to the context or to the light (conditioned stimulus) using footshocks as an unconditioned aversive stimulus. After 24 hours, the rats received intraperitoneal administration of drug (sulpiride or haloperidol) or vehicle and they were exposed to the context or the light for evaluation of the freezing response (test). After another 24 hours, the same animals were submitted to a retest, to evaluate the retention of extinction. For control of possible adverse motor effects, catalepsy and open field tests were performed. As expected, sulpiride decreased the freezing response in the test for both context and light conditioned fear. No motor impairment was observed in the catalepsy or open field tests with sulpiride administration. The administration of haloperidol did not cause significant effects on the expression or extinction of the context or light conditioned fear, although a clear tendency to decrease the freezing in the test was observed. On the other hand, in general, haloperidol induced catalepsy and impaired motor activity in the open field. Therefore, we reproduce the previous findings for sulpiride in decreasing freezing in the conditioned fear test. In addition, we have shown similar effects for haloperidol in the test (although not statistically significant), reinforcing the idea of D2 receptor involvement in conditioned fear expression.

    This research aimed to investigate the meanings attributed by teachers of a CASA Foundation Unit, the challenges and the difficulties presented in the teaching work in this context. The specific objectives of this work were: a) the reasons for entering and staying in this context; b) know the challenges pointed out by teachers in their educational practices; c) identify teachers' meanings and expectations regarding pedagogical work with adolescents deprived of liberty and resocialization; d) teachers' senses about initial and / or continuing education; e) teachers' knowledge about guiding documents, resolutions and regulations for the Unit. Five teachers from the institution participated in this study and the methodological strategies used were document analysis, participant observation with field diary records and semi-structured interviews. The results obtained indicated that: a) there was a lack of knowledge of teachers about the context and dynamics of Foundation Casa when they started teaching at the unit and that the need to get more hours of pedagogical work is an aspect related to the permanence in b) the challenges and difficulties pointed out by the teachers included the lack of specific pedagogical material, the school gap, student turnover and medicalization, the safety routine and the conflicting relationship with the foundation's agents; c) some teachers signaled the importance of the educational process in the resocialization of adolescents and pointed to the lack or ineffectiveness of public policies aimed at graduates of the system as a complicating process of resocialization; d) initial training does not provide information about the work in this specific context and continuing education was seen as lacking or nonexistent for acting in the context; e) the teachers were aware of the rules and guidelines about the work at the foundation, but did not have more detailed knowledge about it. It is discussed the importance of the teacher to know the reality of hospitalized adolescents and act in the sense that their practices can contribute to their resocialization, also seeking to strengthen themselves as educators in this context.

    Verbal behavior, conceived as operant behavior, can be classified according to its functions. Among verbal operants, two types, tact and intraverbal, are essential in the development and enhancement of communication skills. Among verbal operants, two types, tact and intraverbal, are essential in the development and enhancement of communication skills, so systematically assessing the effect of tact (item and category) teaching and listener relationship teaching. (of items and categories), in the emergence of intraverbal responses becomes relevant both to advance knowledge about the learning processes of these repertoires, and to plan interventions with the purpose of increasing and improving the verbal behavior of individuals diagnosed with ASD. The aim of this research was to evaluate the effects of teaching some conditional discriminations (listener repertoire) and tact (speaker repertoire) on the emergence of intraverbal responses in children diagnosed with ASD. Relations between nonverbal stimuli and the names of pictures and between nonverbal stimuli and the names of categories were taught by two procedures: pairing with the auditory-visual matching-to-sample (MTS) model (listener) and transferring vocal response modeling under simultaneous control of stimulus composed by the nonverbal stimulus (the picture) and its spoken name (speaker). Emergence probes of intraverbal response (controlled by questions which had the names of the item or the category as answers) were conducted before, throughout and at the end of the teaching phases. The connections directly taught were learned by all four participants, but no participant demonstrated the emergence of intraverbals, neither after the tact teaching nor after the MTS teaching, nor after both. However, direct teaching of intraverbal for pictures and categories was successful with three of the participants and may have been benefited from prior learning that included the same response components, but with different functions. Successive probes played an important role in monitoring target behaviors.

    Polycrystalline materials have solid-solid interfaces known as grain boundary. These interfaces have long been treated as just a region of defects between the crystals (grains), but recent studies have shown that such interfaces have a major influence on material properties. With the advancement of technology, experimental and theoretical studies about grain boundaries have shown that such interfaces can have their own structures, called complexions, and phase changes among themselves, altering the properties and behavior of the material. Such studies lead to an objective that is to superimpose a phase diagram of grain boundary structures to a bulk phase diagram, which could provide a refined control of material properties by controlling composition, temperature and sintering conditions. However, the study of complexions is new and incomplete because there is not a large amount of studies on this phenomenon and one area developed for understanding grain boundaries is grain contour engineering. The study carried out in this work aimed at the visualization and understanding of the process of segregation in interface and the consequent formation of early stage complexions in the ZnO / Bi2O3 system, widely used in varistors. For this purpose, two processes were used: the preparation of samples with the selection of the work area with the focused ion beam (FIB) technique and the subsequent visualization of the grain outlines and their respective phenomena and structures by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), where it was possible to visualize grain boundary structures already described in the literature and to prove the more complex phase transitions between complexions and nucleation, including nucleation of complexions outside the interface.

    Occupational therapy has produced knowledge and practices about/in schools from different perspectives, one of them focuses on the demands arising from the social issue, pioneered in the Brazilian scenario by METUIA/UFSCar. The group brings together researchers, professors, professionals and graduate and undergraduate students and has been dedicating, since its inception, to teaching and research in social occupational therapy, involving occupational-therapeutic interventions aimed at populations in social vulnerability, particularly young people from urban popular groups, through university extension. The work presented here sought to understand what was produced by METUIA/UFSCar in its teaching, research and extension proposals in the public schools, in relation with this institution and about it and, equally, what results can be inferred from these actions, covering a period that begins in 1998 and runs until 2017. For the accomplishment of the study, besides the composition of the theoretical referential for the analysis in the scope of the Basic Education and the social occupational therapy in Brazil, it was held a survey of bibliographic productions concerning the school, of extension projects developed by the group in public schools and in relation with it, of the professionals who acted as occupational therapists in these projects and of students who have gone through professional internships in METUIA/UFSCar. The set of results was composed by: - 45 bibliographic productions: three research reports, two doctoral theses, six master's dissertations, nine scientific initiation reports, eight book chapters and 17 texts in journals, including research articles, experience reports and essays; - final reports of 16 extension projects; - interviews with 10 occupational therapists who worked for METUIA/UFSCar in the public school; - 42 questionnaires answered by former undergraduate students who went through a professional internship with METUIA/UFSCar and interviews with seven of these ex-students. The analysis of the results allows considerations in the sense of a proposition of action and formation of social occupational therapy in the public school that is in line with a proposal of radical Inclusive Education that intertwining actions that deal with the care of poor adolescents and young people and theirs possible supportive social networks, is done “from the outside in, from the inside out”. This methodology involves the use of social technologies of social occupational therapy: Activity Workshops, Dynamics and Projects, Individual and Territorial Follow-up; Articulation of Resources in the Social Field; and Dynamization of the Social Care Network, as well as four dimensions that permeate them: Handling Conflict, Sensitivity for Working with Adolescents and Youth, Project Management and Care Production. It is concluded that this set of productions points out important demands to be worked by occupational therapists in their practices, beyond those already traditionally placed in the scope of disabilities and global developmental disorders, problematizing its contribution to the Basic Education in Brazil that persists with marked social inequality in the XXI century.

    The Science, Technology, and Innovation (ST&I) triad is considered to be the engine of economic growth and, in the Brazilian case, the easing of national policies for ST&I allows sub national regions (states and municipalities) to recognize institutionally their local innovation system. Given the advancement of information and communication technologies, the innovation ecosystem is configured as a sociology-technical network whose assets can be distributed locally, regionally, nationally or internationally, surpassing zone-based development models, clusters and other forms of production arrangements inspired in English industrial districts. Sustainable local development is necessary for large and medium-sized cities because they face two globalized phenomena: population growth and the concentration of people in urban centers. These phenomena create additional challenges for managers and impose the intelligent use of the city and its resources, focusing on the citizen. The search for efficiency in Smart and Human City (SHC) justifies the interest in technological solutions that support the digital transformation of society. The general objective of this work is to propose a strategy of local management of sociology-technical networks to foster the implementation of SHC. To this end, research was conducted with medium and large cities in Brazil using various research methods (exploratory-descriptive, survey-research and participant-research) that converged to the results that indicated: the growth of municipal insertion in the national agenda ST&I; confirmation of the interest of Brazilian medium-sized cities in the implementation of SHC (or related nomenclatures) and; the institutional dependence on an effective social and technological network committed to the concept of SHC. The use of social technologies based on studies in the Science, Technology, and Society (STS) is also recommended, especially the notion of Collective Intelligence and Actor-Network Theory (ANT), given the complex nature of a distributed network. The theoretical foundations are important to understand the translation of interests between stakeholders, which motivates and stimulates the development of the sociology-technical network. ANT seeks to better understand and explain the hybrid (social and technological) interactions that make it possible to stabilize and disseminate technical-scientific advances that influence behavior and life in society, which can result in a smarter, more human city.

    In this work we propose the correlated geometric distribution of order k, k≥1, with parameters π and ρ; π ∈(0,1), max{−1,−1−π π } ≤ρ < 1, as an extension of the generalized geometric distribution proposed by Philippou e Muwafi (1980) and considering the ideas of Kolev, Minkova e Neytchev (2000) for generalizations of discrete distributions by including an additional parameter ρ. Thus, it is also a re-reading of the geometric distribution of order k by Aki e Hirano (1993). Some properties of the proposed distribution are presented. Regression models are developed using classical and Bayesian estimation methods. Simulated data studies show the behavior of the distributions and some properties of the estimators. The main motivation in this research, besides contribute to generalizations of discrete distributions, is to propose na alternative analysis and even more suitable for real data, since the effect of the individual correlation is taken into account through the existence of the parameter. The fitted models are evaluated and the residual analysis and diagnosis of influence or divergence are also presented.
