RESUMO

Este ensaio objetiva discutir alguns aspectos do "processo civilizador" e do quadro teórico desenvolvido para subsidiar a investigação sociológica sobre o lazer. Neste contexto, são apresentadas algumas das críticas dirigidas à teoria figuracional, ao processo civilizador e, por extensão, ao quadro teórico sobre a busca da excitação no lazer. Norbert Elias e Eric Dunning dedicam uma atenção especial ao "espectro do tempo livre", no qual o lazer se contrapõe ao trabalho profissional e a várias outras atividades. Embora o estudo analisado contribua para ampliar o entendimento sobre a importância das emoções para as atividades de lazer, ele é passível de críticas que precisam ser apropriadas pelos estudiosos do lazer interessados nesta temática.

This theoretical essay aims to discuss some aspects of the "civilizing process" and the theoretical framework developed to support sociological research on leisure. In this context, some of the criticisms directed at figurational theory, the civilizing process and the theoretical framework on the search for excitement in leisure are presented. Norbert Elias and Eric Dunning pay special attention to the "Sparetime Spectrum", in which leisure is contrasted with professional work and various other activities. Although the study analyzed contributes to expanding the understanding of the importance of emotions for leisure activities, it is subject to criticism that needs to be addressed by leisure scholars interested in this topic.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT Objective: To characterize the perceptions and feelings of parents diagnosed with cancer in relation to communication with their children between 3 and 12 years old. Method: A cross-sectional, multicenter, with data triangulation, through structured and semi-structured interviews, with a question with a Semantic Differential Scale, carried out with the father or mother with cancer undergoing outpatient treatment in two hospital institutions in the city of São Paulo, São Paulo, Brazil. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, content analysis, using the ATLAS.ti 8.0R software and the Social Representation Theory. Results: Forty-three respondents participated, 37 (86.0%) were female, 23 (53.5%) aged between 31 and 50 years old, 29 (67.5%) with only children between 7 and 12 years old. The experience was considered painful (73.1%), stressful (53.6%), clear (53.7%) and safe (51.2%). The feelings experienced generated two categories: Trial by fire; and Grateful rewards. Children's reactions from parents' perspective generated the categories: Sadness and suffering; Trust and support; Change of behavior; and Denial or insensitivity. Conclusion: Communication was assessed as negative and conflicting, positive and welcoming, and causing changes in children's behaviors.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Emoji are pictograms frequently used in social networks capable of expressing emotions. These tools can provide insights into people's behavior that could not be obtained with the use of textual communication. Recently, emoji have been introduced to various research fields as successful alternatives to word-based questionnaires for measure emotional responses. The objective of this study was to preliminarily evaluate the discriminating ability and relationship of these tools with different occlusal conditions/malocclusions. METHODS: Online surveys were applied to adult individuals (n = 201; mean age = 27.4 ± 5.7; 37.3% males, 62.7% females). Subjects issued acceptance scores (10-point scale) and expressed their emotional status using a 30-emoji list in relation to nine occlusal conditions: C1-crowding, C2-anterior open bite, C3-interincisal diastema, C4-increased overjet + deep bite (Class II div. 1), C5-anterior crossbite (Class III), C6-ideal occlusion, C7-unilateral posterior crossbite, C8-anterior open bite plus bilateral posterior crossbite plus crowding, and C9-deep bite (Class II div. 2). Cochran's Q and McNemar tests were used to compare the frequencies of choice of emoji between conditions. Correspondence analyses were applied to assess the association between occlusal conditions and emoji. Kendall's correlation coefficient was calculated to evaluate the relationship between mean acceptance scores and frequency counts of each emoji. RESULTS: The frequency of choice between conditions showed a significant difference for 25 of the 30 emoji (P < 0.05), indicating an adequate discriminating ability of these tools. Emoji were grouped predominantly based on their emotional valence (positive/negative) and arousal/activation (high/low). Positive emoji were associated with the most accepted conditions (i.e., C6, C3), while negative emoji with the most rejected ones (i.e., C8, C1, C2). Although only weak, positive correlations between acceptance and positively valenced emoji, and negative correlations between acceptance and negatively valenced emoji were observed (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Emoji have an adequate discriminatory ability and would allow determining emotional profiles in the face of different occlusal conditions. Further research is necessary to consolidate the use of these tools in an instrument that allows measuring emotional responses.

RESUMO

WHAT IS KNOWN ON THE SUBJECT?: Relapse rates are high among patients who have experienced first-episode psychosis (FEP). Psychotic relapses are associated with worse quality of life and poorer functionality of the FEP patient. The use of psychoactive substances, non-adherence to drug treatment, and high expressed emotion (EE) are notable predictors of relapse after the FEP. Although some studies have suggested that psychotic relapse may be associated with a family environment with high levels of emotional over-involvement (EOI), this finding is still inconsistent across different cultures. EE specific components must be evaluated and interpreted according to the context of cultural norms. There is a scarcity of studies on the role of depression in the occurrence of relapses after the FEP, and the results remain uncertain. WHAT THE PAPER ADDS TO EXISTING KNOWLEDGE?: This study explored the predictors of psychotic relapses in Brazilian patients who experienced FEP. Our results indicate that 29.2% of the patients relapsed after the FEP. Patients diagnosed with depression and high-EOI in the family environment were predictors of psychotic relapses in this population. This study expands knowledge about the cultural specificity of EOI and the role of depression in psychotic relapse. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE?: Nursing professionals must consider the implications of the family environment and depression in the course of psychosis. Family interventions and the appropriate treatment of depression are important for improving the prognosis of FEP patients. ABSTRACT: Introduction Psychotic relapse may be associated with relatives' high emotional over-involvement (EOI) and with a diagnosis of major depressive episode (MDE) among first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients, but the results are still inconsistent across different cultures. Aim Evaluate the predictors of relapse in FEP patients. Method Prospective cohort study with 6-month follow-up conducted with 65 dyads of patients and relatives from an early intervention unit in Brazil. At the baseline interview, relatives answered to a sociodemographic data form and to the Family Questionnaire. Patients provided sociodemographic and clinical data and answered the Measurement of Treatment Adherence; the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test; the Severity of Dependence Scale to assess cannabis dependence, and the MDE module of the Mini-International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Psychotic relapses were evaluated using items from the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale. The data were analysed using multiple logistic regression. Results 29.2% of the patients presented at least one psychotic relapse. High-EOI and MDE were predictors of psychotic relapses. Discussion Our findings expand the knowledge about the cultural specificity of EOI and the role of depression in psychotic relapse. Implications for practice Family nursing interventions and the appropriate treatment of MDE must be considered in the care of FEP patients.

RESUMO

Resumen En Educación Física, el alumnado con baja competencia motriz puede verse humillado. La humillación suele quedar silenciada dentro de las personas que la sufren. Este artículo pretende sacar a la luz y reflexionar sobre los sentimientos de humillación de una alumna de Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte (CCAFD). Para ello, la alumna ofrece un relato autoetnográfico que representa sus experiencias de manera semificcional. Dentro del espectro autoetnográfico, se adopta una posición moderada. Tras justificar dicha posición, el artículo presenta algunas reflexiones acerca de cómo el campo de la educación físico-deportiva, y en particular los estudios de CCAFD, generan prácticas y sentimientos de humillación. Se destaca el rol de dos ideologías presentes en Educación Física: la ideología del rendimiento y el sexismo. El artículo concluye resaltando la necesidad de incentivar una sensibilidad ideológica que permita considerar aspectos didácticos, organizativos y evaluativos de las prácticas físico-educativas desde el prisma de la humillación.

Resumo Em Educação Física, os estudantes com baixas capacidades motoras podem ser humilhados. A humilhação é frequentemente silenciada por aqueles que a sofrem. Este artigo traz à luz e reflete sobre os sentimentos de humilhação de uma estudante de Actividade Física e Ciências do Desporto (CCAFD). Para tal, a estudante oferece uma história autoetnográfica que representa as suas experiências de uma forma semificcional. Dentro do espectro autoetnográfico, é adotada uma posição moderada. Depois de justificar esta posição, o artigo apresenta algumas reflexões sobre como o campo da Educação Física e esportes, e em particular os estudos do CCAFD, geram práticas e sentimentos de humilhação. O papel de duas ideologias presentes na Educação Física é destacado: a ideologia do desempenho e o sexismo. O artigo conclui salientando a necessidade de encorajar uma sensibilidade ideológica que permita a consideração de aspectos didácticos, organizacionais e avaliativos das práticas físico-educacionais sob a perspectiva da humilhação.

Abstract Students with poor motor skills may feel humiliated in PE classes, but they often supress it. This paper aims to reveal and reflect on the supressed feelings of humiliation of a Physical Education and Sport Tertiary Education (PESTE) student. In order to do so, the student offers an autoethnographic story that represents her experiences in a semi-fictional way. Within the autoethnographic spectrum, a moderate position is justified and adopted. This paper presents some reflections on how the ideologies of performance and sexism in the field of Physical Education and sport, and in the PESTE degree in particular, create practices and feelings of humiliation. The conclusions drawn from this study emphasize the need to encourage ideological sensitivity that allows considering educational, organizational, and evaluative aspects of Physical Education practices through those who may feel humiliated.

RESUMO

Resumo Introdução Mudanças geradas pela reforma psiquiátrica brasileira reaproximaram as pessoas com transtornos mentais de suas famílias, que passaram a ser responsáveis pela oferta de cuidados. Objetivo O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar a emoção expressa, o estresse precoce e os sintomas de estresse entre cuidadores informais de pessoas com transtornos mentais no momento da internação psiquiátrica. Método Participaram 112 cuidadores. Para coleta de dados foram utilizados quatro instrumentos: questionário sociodemográfico, Family Questionnaire - Versão Português do Brasil, Questionário sobre Traumas na Infância e Inventário de Sintomas de Estresse para adultos de Lipp. Foram realizadas análises estatísticas descritivas, bivariadas e de regressão logística. Os cuidadores foram avaliados com alta emoção expressa tanto no componente superenvolvimento emocional quanto no componente comentários críticos. Resultados O componente superenvolvimento emocional da emoção expressa foi significativamente associado com o estresse precoce e com a fase dos sintomas de estresse. O estresse precoce, a idade e a escolaridade dos cuidadores foram identificadas como variáveis preditoras de alta emoção expressa. Conclusão Esses resultados confirmam a relevância dessas variáveis para o planejamento de ações de assistência no contexto da saúde mental.

Abstract Introduction Changes resulting in Brazilian psychiatric reform brought people with mental disorders closer to their families, who became responsible for the offer of care. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the expressed emotion, the early stress, and the stress symptoms among informal caregivers of people with mental disorders at the time of psychiatric hospitalization. Method 112 caregivers participated. Four instruments were used to collect data: socio-demographic questionnaire, Family Questionnaire - Brazilian Portuguese Version (FQ-BPV), Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ) and Lipp Adult Stress Symptom Inventory (ISLL). Descriptive, bivariate and logistic regression analyses were performed. Caregivers were assessed with high emotion expressed both in the emotional over-involvement component and in the critical comments component. Results The emotional over-involvement component of expressed emotion was significantly associated with early stress and stage of stress symptoms. Early stress, age, and the education level of caregivers were identified as predictive variables of high expressed emotion. Conclusion These results confirm the relevance of these variables for the planning of care actions in the context of mental health.

RESUMO

Abstract Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of FBT in comparison with usual care in people with schizophrenia treated at an outpatient psychiatric department of a public hospital in Chile. Method Quantitative study, with a randomized, controlled clinical trial design (CTCT) and pre-post measurements, with two arms. Fifty-four people with schizophrenia and their primary caregivers, randomly assigned to experimental and control groups, were studied. The main outcome variable was social functioning. As secondary outcomes, clinical symptoms and treatment adherence in people with schizophrenia were evaluated. Expressed emotion was evaluated in the primary caregiver. Results FBT was effective in improving the social functioning of people with schizophrenia and decreasing expressed emotion in the primary caregiver, with a large effect size (d > 0.80). Conclusions The implementation of FBT as a protocolized intervention, complementing usual care, helps to improve psychosocial outcomes in people with schizophrenia and their caregivers.

Método Estudio cuantitativo, longitudinal, con diseño de ensayo clínico controlado aleatorizado (ECCA) y mediciones pre-post, a dos brazos. Se estudiaron 54 personas con esquizofrenia y sus cuidadores principales, asignados aleatoriamente a grupo control y experimental. La variable de resultado primaria fue el funcionamiento social; como resultados secundarios se evaluaron la sintomatología clínica y la adherencia a tratamiento del paciente y la emoción expresada en el cuidador principal. Resultados La TFC fue efectiva en el mejoramiento del funcionamiento social de la persona con esquizofrenia y en la disminución de la emocionalidad expresada en el cuidador principal, con un tamaño de efecto grande (d > 0.80). Conclusiones La implementación de la TFC, como intervención protocolizada y complementaria a los cuidados usuales, contribuye a mejorar resultados psicosociales en personas con esquizofrenia y en sus cuidadores.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Families are the main caregivers of people with schizophrenia. Family dynamic and expressed emotion (EE) of relatives are fundamental determinants on the course of schizophrenia. METHOD: This study analyzed socio-demographic and clinical factors related to EE components. A total of 94 dyads (patients with schizophrenia and their relatives) were recruited from three mental health clinics. A form containing socio-demographic and clinical variables and the Brazilian version of Family Questionnaire were used and the data were analyzed through regression model. RESULTS: Results showed that factors such as patients' occupation status and patients' age, as well as relatives' gender and the degree of relatedness, were related to emotional overinvolvement and critical comments levels. CONCLUSION: This is the first study in the Brazilian cultural context that evaluates EE components and related factors on families of patients with schizophrenia. Other studies concerning EE on different cultural contexts and possible interventions must be carried out to help health professionals to improve patient and family care.

RESUMO

As recaídas e as reinternações podem piorar o prognóstico do paciente no primeiro episódio psicótico (PEP) e afetar sua qualidade de vida e de sua família. Assim, o presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os fatores relacionados às recaídas psicóticas de pacientes no PEP, tais como o ambiente familiar: níveis de emoção expressa (EE) e seus componentes - comentários críticos (CC) e superenvolvimento emocional (SEE), adesão ao tratamento medicamentoso, uso de substâncias psicoativas (SPA) e a presença de depressão. Estudo de coorte prospectivo realizado com pacientes em seguimento em um ambulatório de PEP de um hospital universitário e seus familiares. Os dados foram coletados mediante entrevista com os pacientes e seus familiares no período de julho de 2017 a dezembro de 2018. Na baseline foram aplicados aos familiares um formulário contendo dados sociodemográficos e o Family Questionnaire - Versão Português do Brasil (FQ-VPB). Aos pacientes foram aplicados um formulário contendo dados sociodemográficos e clínicos, a Medida de Adesão aos Tratamentos (MAT), o Questionário para triagem do uso de álcool, tabaco e outras substâncias (ASSIST/OMS), a Escala de Severidade da Dependência de Drogas (SDS) para avaliar o uso de cannabis e o Módulo A da Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (M.I.N.I), versão brasileira 5.0.0. para avaliar a presença de depressão. Além disso, os pacientes foram submetidos a avaliações dos sintomas psicóticos durante o período de seis meses após a entrevista inicial (T0 a T6) por meio da aplicação da Escala Breve de Avaliação Psiquiátrica (BPRS). Para análise dos dados utilizou-se de estatística descritiva, análise bivariada e regressão logística binária. O nível de significância adotado foi de ? = 0,05. Quanto aos resultados, 29,2% dos pacientes no PEP apresentaram recidiva de sintomas psicóticos durante o período de seguimento de seis meses. A análise de regressão logística binária sugere que ambiente familiar com elevados níveis de SEE, a presença de sintomas depressivos e o uso de cannabis nos últimos três meses por pacientes na fase inicial da psicose foram preditores da ocorrência de recaídas durante seis meses de seguimento prospectivo. Os resultados deste estudo podem auxiliar na implementação de ações voltadas à prevenção de recaídas e promoção de saúde para pacientes no PEP e suas famílias

Relapses and rehospitalizations may worsen the patient's prognosis in the first episode of psychosis (FEP) and affect his/her quality of life and the quality of life of patients' family members. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the related factors to psychotic relapses in FEP patients, such as the family environment: levels of expressed emotion (EE) and its components - critical comments (CC) and emotional overinvolvement (EOI); adherence to drug treatment; use of psychoactive substances (PAS); and the presence of depression. A prospective cohort study with 65 FEP outpatients followed-up at a university hospital in the state of São Paulo, Brazil and their relatives. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews with the patients and their relatives from July 2017 to December 2018. At baseline were applied to the family members a sociodemographic data questionnaire and the Brazilian version of Family Questionnaire (FQ-VPB). For the FEP patients were applied a sociodemographic and clinical data questionnaire, the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS); the Brazilian version of Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST/WHO); the Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS) to evaluate the cannabis use and the Module A of Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview to evaluate the presence of depression. Additionally, patients were submitted to evaluations regarding the presence of relapses through the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) during six-months after the initial interview (T0 to T6). Descriptive statistics, bivariate analysis and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the data. The level of significance was ? = 0.05. Regarding the results, 29.2% of the patients in the FEP presented relapse of psychotic symptoms during the sixmonth follow-up period. Binary logistic regression analysis suggests that family environment with high levels of EOI, the presence of depressive symptoms and cannabis use in the last three months by patients with early psychosis were predictors of relapse occurrence during six-months of follow-up. The results of this study may help in the implementation of actions aimed to relapse prevention and health promotion for patients in FEP and their families

RESUMO

A voz é uma ferramenta de trabalho do professor, refletindo suas condições de saúde e emoções. Este estudo objetiva compreender a percepção de professoras sobre o entrelaçamento de voz e emoções. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo realizado a partir de grupos focais com 26 professoras do ensino fundamental. Utilizou-se a fenomenologia da percepção de Merleau-Ponty para análise dos dados, conduzindo- se pela noção de corpo e de entrelaçamento homem e mundo. As categorias identificadas foram: "desdobramentos do trabalho na voz, no corpo e nas emoções" e "emoções no corpo expressos pela voz". As discussões mostram a não separabilidade corpo e mente e a percepção da voz como um modo de vivenciar o corpo e as emoções. A noção de corpo próprio, complexo e sistémico extrapola o entendimento de corpo orgânico-biológico e contribui com a ampliação dos debates sobre a saúde vocal do professor.(AU)

La noción de cuerpo propio, complejo, sistémico, extrapola el entendimiento del cuerpo orgánico-biológico y contribuye a la ampliación de los debates sobre la salud vocal del profesor.(AU)

Voice is an essential tool of the work of teachers, reflecting their health and emotional conditions. The aim of this study was to understand the perception of teachers about how voice and emotion are interwoven. This was a qualitative study using focus groups with 26 elementary school teachers. Data analysis was based on the phenomenology of perception proposed by Merleau-Ponty, guided by his notion of the body and the interweaving of man and world. The resulting categories were: "consequences of the job on the voice, the body and emotions" and "emotions in the body expressed through the voice". Discussions showed the indissociability of the mind and body and the perception of the voice as a way of experiencing the body and emotions. The notion of the "own body", which is complex and systemic, surpasses the organic-biological understanding of the body and helps expand debate about the vocal health of teachers.(AU)

RESUMO

Resumen (analítico): Las elevadas tasas de evitación/infrautilización de los servicios desalud mental adolescente señalan la preferencia de este colectivo por autoatender sus malestares. Integrar los saberes juveniles mediante un enfoque hermenéutico y de interpretación de narrativas permite esclarecer las razones de dicha preferencia pues da a conocer, a partir del análisis de nosologías legas, los modos en los que la juventud percibe, siente y vivencia el malestar. Se empleó metodología cualitativa, realizándose entrevistas semi-estructuradas a una muestra representativa de 105 informantes catalanes y catalanas. Los resultados muestran un continuum nosológico lego que incluye términos coloquiales y biomédicos articulándolos en distintos gradientes de malestar. Normalización y patologización, así como durabilidad y severidad del malestar, devienen conceptos clave en la conformación del continuum. Observándose diferencias por subgrupos de estudio y género.

Abstract (analytical): Avoiding mental health services indicate that adolescents prefer to engage in self-care to treat their emotional distress. In order to clarify the reasons for this preference the author analyzes the lay nosology that adolescents use to name their emotional distress using a hermeneutic and interpretative approach. The study uses a qualitative methodology through 105 semi-structured interviews with a sample of adolescents and young people from Catalonia (Spain). Results show the existence of a lay nosology continuum, articulating the gradient of emotional distress that forms their vital worlds; temporality, normalization and severity are key concepts that shape this suffering. Differences between subgroups and genders were observed. Recognition of these lay nosologies allows better access to the ways in which emotional distress is perceived, felt and lived. This could lead to improvements in the communication between adolescents and professionals.

Resumo (analítico): A evasão dos serviços de saúde mental indica a preferência dos jovens pelo autoatenção de seus desconfortos. Para esclarecer as razões para esta preferência se analisam as nosologias leigas que os jovens usam para nomear aos seus mal-estares a partir de uma aproximação hermenêutica e interpretativa; foram desenvolvidas entrevistas semiestruturadas a uma amostra de adolescentes e jovens na Catalunha (Espanha). Os resultados desvelam a existência de um continuo nosológico que articula os gradientes de mal-estar emocional dos mundos vitais adolescentes sobre aspectos como temporalidade, normalização e severidade. Foram observados diferentes subgrupos de estudo e de gênero. O conhecimento das nosologias leigas permite um acesso aos modos em que o sofrimento é percebido, sentido e vivido e, como consequência, pode implicar numa melhor comunicação entres jovens e profissionais da saúde.

RESUMO

RESUMO Objetivo: Avaliar a relação entre recaídas psiquiátricas de pacientes com diagnóstico de esquizofrenia, níveis de emoção expressa de seus familiares e fatores relacionados. Método: Estudo prospectivo, realizado em um serviço ambulatorial de saúde mental e em dois Centros de Atenção Psicossocial, com pacientes e familiares que responderam ao Family Questionnaire − Versão Português do Brasil, um formulário contendo as variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas e um roteiro estruturado para avaliação de recaídas. Para a análise, utilizou-se do modelo de regressão logística. Resultados: Participaram do estudo 89 díades. Dos pacientes investigados, 31% apresentaram recaídas, e 68% dos familiares, elevada emoção expressa. A relação entre a emoção expressa e as recaídas não foi significativa. A análise de regressão logística mostrou que quanto maior o número de internação nos 2 anos precedentes ao estudo, a chance de o paciente apresentar recaídas no período de 24 meses é de 1,34. Conclusão: A emoção expressa foi insuficiente para predizer recaídas. Assim, as recaídas devem ser compreendidas como um fenômeno multifatorial. Esses resultados fornecem subsídios para intervenções e investigações sobre os múltiplos fatores envolvidos na evolução do paciente com esquizofrenia, acompanhado em serviços de saúde mental de base comunitária.

RESUMEN Objetivo: Evaluar la relación entre recaídas psiquiátricas de pacientes con diagnóstico de esquizofrenia, niveles de emoción expresada de sus familiares y factores relacionados.

Para el análisis, se utilizó el modelo de regresión logística. Resultados: Participaron en el estudio 189 pares. De los pacientes investigados, el 31% presentaron recaídas, y el 68% de los familiares, elevada emoción expresada. La relación entre la emoción expresada y las recaídas no fue significativa. El análisis de regresión logística mostró que cuanto mayor el número de estancias hospitalarias en los dos años precedentes al estudio, la probabilidad de que el paciente presente recaídas en el período de 24 meses es de 1,34. Conclusión: La emoción expresada fue insuficiente para predecir recaídas. De esa manera, las recaídas deben comprenderse como un fenómeno multifactorial. Dichos resultados brindan subsidios para intervenciones e investigaciones acerca de los múltiples factores involucrados en la evolución del paciente con esquizofrenia, acompañado en servicios de salud mental de base comunitaria.

ABSTRACT Objective: Assess the relationship between psychiatric relapses of patients with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, the levels of expressed emotion among their relatives and related factors. Method: Prospective study carried out at a mental health outpatient clinic and two Psychosocial Care Centers, with patients and relatives responding to the Family Questionnaire - Brazilian Portuguese Version, a form containing socio-demographic and clinical variables and a structured script to assess relapses. A logistic regression model was used for the analysis. Results: A total of 89 dyads participated in the study. Of the patients investigated, 31% presented relapses and, among the relatives, 68% presented elevated levels of expressed emotion. The relationship between expressed emotion and the relapses was not significant. The logistic regression analysis demonstrated that when there were a higher number of hospital admissions in the two years preceding the study, the chance of the patient relapsing in the 24-month period is 1.34. Conclusion: Expressed emotion was insufficient to predict relapses. Thus, a relapse should be understood as a multifactorial phenomenon. These results provide support for interventions and investigations on the multiple factors involved in the evolution of schizophrenia patients in follow-up at community-based health services.

RESUMO

Abstract: Background: Psoriasis is a chronic, inflammatory, relapsing skin disease that has a psychosocial impact on the patients' life. Objective: This study aimed to investigate psychopathology in patients with psoriasis based on a valid psychometric instrument, as well as on the relationship between psychopathology and alexithymia. Methods: 108 patients with psoriasis were included in the study. Psychopathology was evaluated with the Symptom Checklist-90-Revised (SCL-90-R) and alexithymia with the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20). Disease severity was clinically assessed using the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index. Results: As regards the psychopathological dimensions, female patients presented with statistically significant higher somatization, depression, anxiety, phobic anxiety, and psychoticism than males. Patients with alexithymia presented with statistically significant higher somatization, interpersonal sensitivity, anxiety, and phobic anxiety than non-alexithymic patients. Alexithymia positively correlated with somatization (r = 0.26, p < 0.01), interpersonal sensitivity (r = 0.24, p < 0.05), depression (r = 0.27, p < 0.01), anxiety (r = 0.26, p < 0.01), and phobic anxiety (r = 0.26, p < 0.01). In addition, alexithymia also contributed to the prediction of these conditions. Study Limitations: A larger study sample could yield safer generalized results. Nevertheless, to the best of our knowledge, this was the first study to investigate various psychopathological dimensions in patients with psoriasis. Conclusions: Our study results indicate that alexithymia and female sex were associated with several psychopathological dimensions in patients with psoriasis. It may be suggested that alexithymia constitutes an important factor in the development of mental disorders among patients with psoriasis.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This study tested an attribution model of help-giving in family caregivers of persons with schizophrenia as it relates to caregivers' reported burden. We hypothesized (a) that caregivers' attributions of their ill relatives' responsibility for their symptoms would be associated with more negative and less positive affective reactions, (b) that affective reactions would be related to perceptions of administered support, and (c) that support would in turn predict greater burden. METHODS: We examined 60 family caregivers of Mexican origin living in Southern California. Mexican Americans were chosen because of their high degree of contact with their ill relative, thereby facilitating the examination of help-giving and burden. Contrary to past studies, caregivers' attributions and affective stance were assessed independently, the former based on self-report and the latter based on codes drawn from the Camberwell Family Interview. Caregiver burden was assessed at baseline and one year later. RESULTS: Path analyses showed partial support for the attribution model of help-giving. Specifically, attributions of responsibility negatively predicted caregiver's warmth, which in turn predicted more administered support. Contrary to hypotheses, attributions were not associated with caregiver criticism, and criticism was positively related to administered support. In addition, caregiver support was not related to burden at either baseline or a year later. Criticism was a significant predictor of burden at follow-up through burden at baseline. CONCLUSION: The emotional stance of caregivers predicts burden independent of the help they provide. Caregiver criticism not only predicts negative patient outcomes but can predict negative caregiver outcomes as well. PRACTITIONER POINTS: Positive clinical implications In family treatment, it is important to address caregiver criticism not only because of its relationship to poor clinical outcomes of ill relatives but also because of its relationship to greater caregiver burden. Integrating a balanced rationale for family interventions - to improve ill relatives' and caregivers' outcomes - may promote further engagement of both parties as some caregivers may be additionally motivated to improve their own well-being, and some ill relatives may appreciate more equitably distributing the treatment focus. Limitations The caregiver sample was in general low in criticism; therefore, the findings may not be generalizable to families with a higher degree of criticism. There was a 35% sample attrition at the one-year follow-up.

RESUMO

Resumo Objetivo Identificar e comparar as expressões emocionais das parturientes no período expulsivo sob iluminação comum e usual e com baixa luminosidade. Métodos Ensaio clínico, controlado e randomizado de abordagem pragmática. Selecionado 95 parturientes, divididas em dois grupos: iluminação comum e usual e baixa luminosidade da sala de parto. Resultados A emoção mais presente no período expulsivo é a raiva (33,9%). As diferenças entre os grupos do estudo quanto à presença de emoções são significativas: medo (p< 0,0001), nojo (p = 0,0091) e tristeza (p = 0,0060) estiveram mais presentes no grupo de iluminação comum e usual. Já o grupo de baixa luminosidade apresentou mais alegria (p< 0,0001) e raiva (p< 0,0001). Todas as parturientes terminaram seus partos com a emoção alegria. Conclusão O ambiente com baixa luminosidade promove uma sequência de emoções que respeita e auxilia a fisiologia do período expulsivo do trabalho de parto.

Abstract Objective To identify and compare the emotional expression of pregnant women during the stage of expulsion under common and regular lighting and low lighting. Methods Pragmatic, randomized controlled clinical trial. Ninety-five pregnant women were selected, and divided into two groups: common and regular lighting and low lighting in the delivery room. Results The most evident emotion during the stage of expulsion is anger (33.9%). The differences between the study groups regarding the presence of emotions are significant: fear (p< 0.0001), disgust (p = 0.0091), and sadness (p = 0.0060) were more evident for the group under common and regular lighting. The group under low lighting expressed more joy (p< 0.0001) and anger (p< 0.0001). All pregnant women finished their deliveries feeling joy. Conclusion Low lighting provides a series of emotions that respect and help women's physiology during the stage of expulsion in labor.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: This study examined the effects of a three-month Family-to-Family (FTF) Education Program on expressed emotion and subjective knowledge about mental illness among relatives of Mexican patients with severe mental disorders. METHODS: A total of 230 relatives of patients with severe mental disorders completed self-reported questionnaires before (pretest) and after (posttest) the FTF program. RESULTS: FTF led to reductions in negative emotional attitudes and improved the understanding of the disorder, regardless of sex or age of the relative. CONCLUSIONS: This study supported the evidence-based practice of FTF in a Mexican population and confirmed the importance of providing routine family psychoeducation as an additional component of health care service provision for relatives of people with severe mental illness in the community.

RESUMO

Abstract Objectives. This work sought to determine mood levels of women subjected to treatments for breast cancer and of their spouses. Methods. Descriptive cross-sectional study with non-probabilistic sampling. The profile of mood states (POMS) instrument, Spanish version, was applied to a sample of 103 couples from five Colombian cities. Results. The mood level in women reported a mean of 61.4 ± 5.7 and 60.7 ± 4.9 in their spouses, without being statistically significant. Upon analyzing the score of the mood subscales, statistically significant differences were only noted in tension (higher score in spouses) and fatigue (higher score in women). Conclusion. The emotional area was moderately affected in the study couples, which could be consequential of late effects of the treatments for breast cancer. Nursing must develop care actions that promote the emotional wellbeing of women with breast cancer and include participation from the spouses.
