Do Brazilian women football players consider themselves feminists? Approaches to gender equality and empowerment
Gender inequalities remain embedded in Brazilian women’s football, influencing athletes’ opportunities and experiences. This study explores how U-20 and senior players perceive gender equality and empowerment, using the EMERGE framework to assess critical consciousness, agency, and self-determined goals. A total of 67 players (20.1 ± 3.2 years) participated: 52 from U-20 teams across four clubs and 15 from a senior team. Data were collected via a…
Arboreal Camera Trap-based Insights into the Activity, Resource Use, and Demography of Black Lion Tamarins (Leontopithecus chrysopygus) and Sympatric Mammals in Atlantic Forest Fragments
Wildlife monitoring is essential for guiding biodiversity conservation strategies, particularly in fragmented ecosystems under intense anthropogenic pressure. While noninvasive methods, such as camera traps, are widely used for terrestrial species, their application in other forest strata is underexplored despite its potential for studying elusive and nocturnal arboreal mammals. We aim to evaluate whether arboreal camera trapping is a relevant to…
Change in the Prevalence and Social Patterning of First- and Second-Hand Smoking in Portugal
Between 2005 and 2007, important reinforcements of the tobacco legislation have been implemented in Portugal, which may have affected smoking patterns. The aim of this study was to measure the change in prevalence of first- and second-hand smoking (SHS) among adults, and its socio-demographic patterning in Portugal from 2005 to 2014. Data from the last two Portuguese National Health Interview Surveys (2005 and 2014) were used. The changes in dail…

This case series aimed to describe the clinical features and symptomatic onset of eating disorders (EDs), to characterize male puberty development and to identify potential risk factors (RFs) for EDs and specific life events preceding ED symptoms. Ten males with current ED diagnoses participated in this study. All participants were interviewed with the Eating Disorders Examination, the Oxford Risk Factor Interview, and a semi-structured clinical …
The Potential of Small Dams for Conjunctive Water Management in Rural Municipalities
The drinking water supply to Vila Pouca de Aguiar municipality in North Portugal is based on high quality groundwater, namely on nearly one hundred artesian springs and fifty boreholes. The groundwater resources are plentiful on a municipal level, but evidence some deficits at the sub-municipal (village) level, especially during the dry period (July- August) that coincides with the return of many emigrants for holiday time. The deficits affect mo…
Engaging Citizen Participation-A Result of Trusting Governmental Institutions and Politicians in the Portuguese Democracy
Public participation is a mainstay of democracy. However, the ways in which it can be understood inevitably influence the achievement of the goals that preside over any public policy. Literature argues that the drawbacks of citizen participation are directly related to the level of trust in governmental institutions and in politicians. The present study was carried out on a sample of 250 individuals and aimed to (1) describe citizens' opinions an…
Procura-PALavras (P-Pal)
Neste trabalho apresentamos as estratégias e os procedimentos adoptados na constituição de uma nova medida de frequência lexical do Português Europeu contemporâneo, o Procura-PALavras (P-PAL). Baseado num corpus de mais de 227 milhões de palavras, o P-PAL é uma aplicação web que oferece, por defeito, valores de frequência lexical para todas as suas entradas lexicais (lemas e formas) e que permite a computação de uma grande diversidade de outras m…
