Implementation fidelity and outcomes of a psychomotor intervention program for preschool children on the autism spectrum and neurotypically developed peers
Research on psychomotor interventions that support the diverse developmental profiles of preschool children, including those on the autism spectrum (ASD) and their neurotypical peers (ND), in inclusive settings is still limited. This pilot study used a quasi‐experimental, pre‐ and post‐test design to evaluate the effects of a psychomotor intervention program on psychomotor functions, social skills and behavioural problems. The intervention group …
Beyond the Classroom
Results strengthen the importance of psychomotor skills development from an early age, also at school, with implications for an early psychomotor assessment and intervention for children with and without disabilities. Tailor-fit interventions, including strategies to improve psychomotor skills, should be promoted during the school process of all children for a successful learning process
Design-Based Research in the Educational Field
The design-based research methodology has been gaining significance, in recent years, in the field of educational research. Several authors have pointed out the potential of this methodology to support the development of research processes with strong practical applicability. Its iterative nature allows researchers to organize their studies into iterative research cycles that allow them to improve products, processes, and test new resources and e…
The Assessment of the Psychomotor Profile in Children
Psychomotor assessment is an expanding research field. A deep knowledge of the typical development will allow for better child-centered planning. Due to the scarcity of psychomotor assessment instruments validated in Portugal, our research aims to perform a preliminary analysis of the psychometric properties of the Portuguese version of the Battery for Neuropsychomotor functions evaluation (NPmot.pt). The NPmot.pt was translated and adapted to th…
Consensus on the Best Practice Guidelines for Psychomotor Intervention in Preschool Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Psychomotor intervention has been used to promote development by the enhancement of psychomotor and socio-emotional competence. However, studies with high-quality evidence, describing psychomotor-intervention processes and outcomes are scarce. Therefore, we aimed to generate expert consensus regarding psychomotor-intervention guidelines to support psychomotor therapists through the design and implementation of interventions for preschool (3−6 yea…
Charming, influencing and seducing
Since a critical turn was embarked on two decades ago, research into sports coaching has increased in quality and quantity [see Jones, R. L. (2019). Studies in sports coaching. Cambridge Scholars Publishing]. Despite such welcome advances, the essence or heart of the activity remains contested terrain [Abraham, A., & Collins, D. (2011). Taking the next step: Ways forward for coaching science. Quest (grand Rapids, Mich), 63(4), 366–385. https://do…
O autoconceito na população com Dificuldade Intelectual e Desenvolvimental (DID) em Portugal
A mudança de paradigma da pessoa com Dificuldade Intelectual e Desenvolvimental (DID) como agente ativo e autodeterminado vem evidenciar a forma como o próprio se vê, ou seja, o seu autoconceito, sendo este um tema que a nível nacional ainda carece de mais investigação. Esta revisão sistemática objetiva identificar e caracterizar os aspetos que influenciam o autoconceito destes indivíduos. A pesquisa foi realizada em várias bases de dados e revis…
Psychosocial and psychopathological predictors of HIV-risk injecting behavior among drug users in Portugal
Despite the introduction of needle and syringe exchange programs (NSPs), sharing of syringes and other materials remains common among injection drug users (IDUs) worldwide. For this reason, IDUs are at high-risk of HIV transmission. This paper studies the psychosocial and psychopathological determinants of sharing among IDUs. Understanding the relationship between psychological morbidity, HIV knowledge, HIV risk perception, and sharing behaviors …
Social Capital and Socio-demographic Changes
This article examines how different socio-demographic trends interrelate with alterations in the traditional forms of social and interpersonal relationships. We will focus on two Portuguese municipalities using the concept of rural community as an analytic starting point for framing and examining the different dimensions of social capital. The survey's data shows that the generalised nature of mutual knowledge and trust, that used to characterise…

Coaching, caring and the politics of touch
This paper has three principal purposes. The first involves locating the ‘politics of touch’ as related to coaching within Noddings' theory of pedagogical caring. Noddings' framework is presented not so much as a prescription of ‘good practice’, but as a potential way to raise the profile and somewhat problematise the debate about touching as a part of coaching. The second objective of the paper is to further the case for visual methods, and in p…
Cidadania, educação e responsabilidade social
Sexualidade, gravidez e parentalidade jovem são assuntos complexos e de grande debate na modernidade tardia globalizada, jogando questões de liberdade e direitos, a par de regulação e controle social público, constituindo-se, assim em campo de relevância educacional. Este texto revela conhecimento baseado em narrativas de uma jovem portuguesa e outra romena, de 17 e 19 anos, residentes em instituições de protecção social, devido a gravidez e mate…
