Transformations in journalists' work and therapeutic management of professional pressure
In this article, we approach an unexplored line of analysis and research about the impact of transformations in journalists’ work on professional pressure and performance- consumption, what we refer to as the process of pharmaceuticalisation of work contexts. We discuss how changes at work lead to increased pressure on journalists and how pressure generates practices and dispositions for using different types of natural and pharmaceutical resourc…
Nurses Under Pressure
This article discusses the relationship between the demands on nurses’ professional performance and adherence to the use of medicines and supplements for their management. This approach allows us to analyze the transformations of nursing work and how nurses use various natural and pharmaceutical resources to cope with the pressures they face in their professional activities. To understand the interconnection between the transformations in nursing…
Medication use for the management of professional performance
This article aims to explore pharmaceuticalisation processes in professional work contexts. The approach focuses on identifying patterns of medicine and dietary supplement use for managing work performance, and on discussing the relationship between these consumption practices and work-related pressure factors. This analysis adapts the notions of 'normalisation' to understand the extent of cultural acceptability of these practices, and the notion…
A cientifização da clínica e a padronização das práticas médicas
A discussão suscitada pela Medicina Baseada na Evidência (MBE) acerca da necessidade de se desenvolver instrumentos formais de apoio à decisão médica que contribuam para o reforço do seu perfil científico deu lugar à reflexão sobre a necessidade de uma maior padronização para reduzir a variação das práticas médicas. Neste artigo, é desenvolvida uma abordagem sociológica centrada na problematização da ideia de padronização, tanto a partir da análi…
Determinants Influencing Distance Learning at Health Technology Higher Education Institutions in Portugal
Introducing distance learning within higher education institutions (HEIs) is a key societal issue, especially in the health sector, due to its in vivo learning nature. Public policies play an important role in these digital environments. This study aims to identify the determinants influencing national public policies that foster digital learning transformation in Health HEIs in Portugal. A prospective survey, using the structural analysis of God…
The Uses of Coffee in Highly Demanding Work Contexts
This paper presents a sociological approach to coffee consumption as a performance management strategy in work contexts, particularly in professions with intense work rhythms and highly responsive demands. Focusing on the daily work of three professional groups (nurses, police officers, and journalists), we analyze the social expression of coffee and how it is mobilized to deal with sleep problems, fatigue, concentration, or stress. For this purp…
A New Time of Reckoning, a Time for New Reckoning
This article seeks to capture variations and tensions in the relationships between the health–illness–medicine complex and society. It presents several theoretical reconstructions, established theses and arguments are reassessed and criticized, known perspectives are realigned according to a new theorizing narrative, and some new notions are proposed. In the first part, we argue that relations between the medical complex and society are neither f…
Data Protection in Sociological Health Research
The recent implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) establishes a set of formal requirements that reinforce personal data protection, namely, those concerning the collection, treatment, and dissemination of data on research participants. With the application of this new legal provision at the European level, new types of restrictions are emerging, whose nature and reach intensify the tension between demands for privacy and …
Reconfigurações profissionais em contextos de mudança
No atual enquadramento regulatório das políticas públicas de saúde verifica-se um maior escrutínio público sobre a medicina, pelo que os atores institucionais se têm empenhado na implementação de medidas que procuram reduzir a variação das práticas médicas, concretamente através das chamadas normas de orientação clínica (NOC). Considerando o processo formal da sua implementação em Portugal, o objetivo específico deste artigo é explorar as razões …
A padronização em contexto
Under a new regulatory, the development of a variety of formal instruments to strengthen the objectivity of medical decisions is favored (namely, Clinical Guidelines). In order to explore the scope of standardization in clinical practice, I develop a comprehensive analysis grounded on the mobilization of the empirical results derived from the Focus Group sessions that took place in two organizational contexts related to the professional reality o…

Medications, youth therapeutic cultures and performance consumptions
This article analyses performance consumptions among young people. The theme is explored along two main axes. The first concerns the social heterogeneity in this field, considered on two levels: the different purposes for those investments - cognitive/mental and physical performance; and the different social contexts - university and work - where performance practices and dispositions may be fostered. The second axis explores the roles of pharmac…
Os imperativos da padronização no contexto das práticas médicas
Este texto procura ensaiar uma reflexão sociológica que, mobilizando contributos provenientes de vários domínios disciplinares, seja capaz de problematizar a emergência das dinâmicas de reconfiguração da profissão médica, bem como os significados subjacentes ao desenvolvimento das lógicas de regulação e padronização no interior deste campo. Resgatando a abordagem sociológica das generalizações interpretativas e dos enquadramentos que tendem a per…
