Para uma cooperação da escuta e do movimento: Estudo intercultural sobre a percepção dos ritmos tradicionais do Xangô (Olinda, PE)
2010
Combining musical cognition and ethnomusicological approaches, this article seeks to verify if the capacity of recognizing and actually doing the appropriate beat of musical rhythms after listening to musical excerpts is influenced by the movements of the body. We would like to show to what extent variables like "musical competence" ("musicians" and "non-musicians") and "cultural origin" ("Brazilians" and "French") do influence such capacity. We try to answer these questions by applying an experimental protocol designed for that end. The musical rhythms used in the experiment are drawn from the musical and religious traditions of the xangô african-brazilian cult, as they are practiced in Ol…
Le choix d'une profession par les étudiants. Le cas du Brésil
2005
Further education in Brazil is characterised by a great institutional diversity and by a strong presence of private schools. It has gone through reforms concerning especially the conditions of access to university, by adding to the competitive examination of application to university the creation of a procedure evaluating pupils' skills at the end of secondary school. During their studies, students are faced with difficulties in choosing their career because of a lack of real professional information. As a result, many are those giving up their studies.
Ceramique/metal component elaborated by flash sintering for ballistic protection
2012
This dissertation describes the synthesis of new components for ballistic protection with the assistance of flash sintering. Indeed, the objective is to associate two compounds showing very different sintering temperatures – such as alumina and aluminum, two reference materials for ballistic protection applications.The first synthesis method tested was the elaboration of a bi-material via the sintering of aluminump owder on alumina bulks. This study permitted to observe the formation of the alumina/aluminum bonding by scanning and transmission electron microscopy and to optimize the assembly parameters in order to obtain a bimaterials howing a strong interfacial cohesion. Adapted characteri…
Bioetyki kulturowe w Ameryce Łacińskiej
2017
W artykule została przedstawiona charakterystyka bioetyki łacińskiej, jej korzenie i geneza, rozwój w poszczególnych, wybranych krajach, a także typowa problematyka. Bioetyka łacińska u swych początków jako dyscyplina akademicka czerpała głównie ze Stanów Zjednoczonych. Niewspółmierność problematyki paradygmatów bioetyki zachodniej do realiów krajów łacińskich doprowadziła do przewartościowania i prób wypracowania własnej, swoistej, bardziej adekwatnej bioetyki kulturowej.
Electrochemical identification of flavonoid dyes in solid work of art samples by abrasive voltammetry at paraffin-impregnated graphite electrodes.
2004
Abstract An electrochemical method for identifying flavonoid-type dyes in microsamples from works of art is reported. Square wave voltammograms of natural insoluble dyestuffs based on flavonoid structure dragoon's blood, weld, old fustic, gamboge, Brazilwood and logwood (Campeche wood) attached to paraffin-impregnated graphite electrodes in contact with 0.25 M HAc + 0.25 M NaAc aqueous buffer display characteristic peaks in the potential region between +0.85 and −0.85 V versus AgCl/Ag. Sequential experiments in contact with 0.05 M AlCl 3 and 0.05 M Na 2 MoO 4 plus HAc/NaAc and 0.05 M H 3 BO 3 + 0.10 M NaOH solutions also provide dye-characteristic signals allowing for an unambiguous identi…
Empoderamiento femenino e insersión por la economia: analisis comparativo del modelo de las cooperatias andaluzas y de la economía solidaria en brasil
2017
Cette étude a comme objectif central d’examiner l’hypothèse suivante: les coopératives d’économie sociale et/ou solidaires contribuent à l’autonomisation des femmes en créant des dynamiques d’équité en termes sociaux, économiques et culturels, qui promeuvent l’égalité des sexes. Les principaux objectifs qui guident cette recherche sont les suivants: 1) Aborder les facteurs sociaux, économiques et culturels qui régissent les entreprises sociales prédominantes. Les principaux facteurs sont: le genre, le niveau de scolarité et le rôle des coopératives dans le développement économique et social de chaque pays. 2) Analyser les facteurs que prennent en compte les deux formes de gestion, le systèm…
Dental pain associated with untreated dental caries and sociodemographic factors in 5-year-old children
2020
Background The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of dental pain and to examine its association with untreated dental caries in 5-year-old children. Material and Methods This was a cross-sectional study of 261 5-year-old children in Northeast Brazil. Parents answered questions about their socioeconomic conditions and their children's toothache. Trained dentists assessed dental caries using the decayed, missing and filled teeth (dmf-t) index. Binary logistic regression models were used to estimate the unadjusted and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and the confidence intervals (95% CIs) for the association of dental pain with covariates. The significance level was set at five percent. …
Multiple sediment proxies from Jaraguá cave, Brazil
2019
Multiple paleoclimate, paleovegetation and paleoenvironmental records from Jaraguá cave, located at center of South America. In this dataset that covers the last 28,000 year is included δ13C and δ18O values and 87Sr/86Sr ratios in stalagmites combined with XRF-derived elemental chemistry, δ13Corg, total organic carbon and total inorganic carbon (carbonate) in a sedimentary profile from the same cave.
Pathways between Social Capital and Oral Health from Childhood to Adolescence
2022
Author's accepted manuscript This study aimed to evaluate the theoretical pathways by which social capital can influence dental caries and oral health–related quality of life (OHRQoL) of children over time. This 10-y prospective cohort started in 2010 with a sample of 639 preschoolers aged 1 to 5 y from the southern Brazil. Community and individual social capital were assessed at baseline through the presence of formal institutions in the neighborhood and social networks, respectively. In the 10-y follow-up, the individual social capital was evaluated by social trust and social networks. Dental caries was measured by the International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS), and the …
Social Capital And Commitment in the Brazilian Wine Industry
2012
The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the literature on organizational social capital and organizational commitment in collaborative networks context. Firstly, we identified the most important elements that compound these two concepts. In order to do that, we surveyed 193 employees of 74 companies' members of a food network - the Brazilian Wine Industry Cluster. Finally, we sought to better understand the relationship between commitment and social capital. The results show that affective and normative organizational commitments enchance social capital development, specially in relational and cognitive dimensions. These findings revealed that employeed may execute some tasks as a way…
