RESUMO
O objetivo deste trabalho é conhecer a percepção dos(as) brasileiros(as) que moraram temporariamente no exterior sobre a sua própria cultura. Isto é, como eles(as) percebem a cultura brasileira nos aspectos comuns e diferentes em relação à cultura estrangeira. Também serão abordados o significado dessa vivência migratória e as mudanças pessoais ocorridas. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, cujos resultados obtidos a partir de entrevistas individuais com 6 participantes foram examinados através da Análise de Conteúdo. Constatou-se que os(as) brasileiros(as) percebem que há o predomínio da afetividade na sua cultura, da falta de responsabilidade com os compromissos, do improviso e da falta de planejamento nas ações. Como resultado da experiência migratória, identifica-se que morar no exterior possibilita descobertas pessoais e amadurecimento. Apresenta-se também que a experiência migratória pode gerar dificuldades de adaptação na nova cultura e no retorno ao Brasil.
The aim of this paper is to know the perception of Brazilians who lived temporarily abroad concerned to their own culture. It means, how they perceive the Brazilian culture comparing to the foreign culture considering similar and different aspects. The meaning of living abroad and the personal change will be also discussed. Its a qualitative research, which the results obtained from individual interviews with 6 participants were examined through Content Analysis. We find out that Brazilians consider that there is the prevalence of affective in their culture, as well as the prevalence of lack of responsibility with appointments, of improvisation and lack of planning in actions. As a result of migratory experience, it is identified that living abroad let personal discovers and maturation. And this experience in another country can cause adaptation difficulties in the new culture as well as in the return to Brazil.

Sensory exploitation occurs when signals trigger behavioral reactions that diminish the receiver's fitness. Research in this area focuses on the match between the signal's form and the receiver's sensitivity, but the effect of habitat on interspecific sensory exploitation is rarely addressed. Myioborus redstarts use conspicuous wing and tail displays of contrasting black-and-white plumage patches to flush dipteran insects, which are then pursued and captured in flight. Previous studies have shown that by increasing the distance at which insects perform an escape response, conspicuous visual displays improve the birds' foraging performance. We tested the hypothesis that selection for a visual signal that maximizes prey escape distance under local habitat conditions can lead to the evolution of geographic variation in plumage pattern among Myioborus redstarts. Using models of foraging birds, we recorded the escape responses of Dipterous insects to a range of plumage patterns and background tones (from light to dark) to determine whether the plumage pattern that maximizes prey flushing is dependent upon that habitat (background) against which birds are viewed by their prey. Our results indicate that the effectiveness of a particular plumage pattern in flushing dipteran prey depends strongly on the background against which that plumage pattern is displayed, and darker habitat (background) conditions generally favor plumages with more extensive patches of white in the tail. However, the addition of white wing patches that imitate the plumage of the painted redstart (Myioborus pictus) generally increases insect escape responses but reduces the effect that tail pattern variation and background tone have on escape behavior. These experiments support the hypothesis that habitat-specific natural selection to enhance sensory exploitation of prey escape responses could produce geographic variation in plumage patterns of flush-pursuers.
