Livelihood vulnerability and human-wildlife interactions across protected areas
Protected Areas (PAs) are important wildlife refuges and act as climate change buffers, but they may impact human livelihoods, particularly engendering a high risk of negative human-wildlife interactions (HWI). Understanding synergies and trade-offs among the drivers of overall human vulnerability within PAs is needed to ensure good outcomes for conservation and human well-being. We examined how climate variability, HWI, and socio-demographics af…
Colonialidade e Comunalidade
Este artigo foca a evolução dos discursos coloniais sobre as práticas comunitárias observadas na África Portuguesa ao longo do período de ocupação efetiva, compulsando os estudos etnográficos dos "usos e costumes indígenas" produzidos entre 1890 e 1974. A primeira parte avalia criticamente os contextos de produção destas pesquisas, procurando historiar a relação entre políticas e representações coloniais. A segunda parte ilustra a evolução da ciê…
Livelihood strategies to address water induced vulnerability on marginal settlements
Increase in water induced risks are realized with marginal settlements being more vulnerable due to limited adaptive capacity. The challenge put forward by climate change, in absence of adequate formal strategies, has forced the dwellers of marginal settlements, over the years, to adopt local adaptation strategies to survive the risk and live in harmony with water. The highly diverse characteristics based on livelihoods and social networks provid…

The relationship between depression and risk of violence in portuguese community-dwelling older people
The severity of depressive symptomatology plays an essential role in the risk of violence against community-dwelling older people. Moreover, it was found that older persons with depression symptomatology were at higher risk of being victims of violence. Our study findings support the need for protective measures within mental health national or regional policies to prevent depression and violence against community-dwelling older people
How Compassionate Abilities Influence the Experience of Loneliness and Quality of Life of People with and without Chronic Physical Disease
The current study aimed to test whether individuals with and without a chronic physical disease differ in levels of compassionate abilities, loneliness and quality of life (QoL); and to examine whether loneliness mediated the impact of self-compassion and of receiving compassion from others in physical, psychological, and social QoL. In this cross-sectional study, individuals with (n = 278) and without (n = 455) physical chronic disease were recr…
Connecting primate gesture to the evolutionary roots of language
Comparative psychology provides important contributions to our understanding of the origins of human language. The presence of common features in human and nonhuman primate communication can be used to suggest the evolutionary trajectories of potential precursors to language. However, to do so effectively, our findings must be comparable across diverse species. This systematic review describes the current landscape of data available from studies …
The LifewithIBD Intervention
Background: There is ample evidence of the high mental health burden caused by Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Several constructs such as experiential avoidance, cognitive fusion, shame, and self-criticism have recently emerged as potential intervention targets to improve mental health in IBD. Psychotherapeutic models such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and compassion-based interventions are known to target these constructs. In this proto…
How Can Unintended Pregnancies Be Prevented among Adolescents Who Engaged in Sexual Intercourse at Earlier Ages? The Role of Female Education and Partner Age Difference
Several studies have identified explicative factors for adolescents' sexual risk behaviors and related outcomes such as unintended pregnancy; however, less is known about the mechanisms through which such factors act. Our study explored the role of female education and partner age difference as explicative mechanisms of the association between age at first sexual intercourse (AFSI) and unintended pregnancy while controlling for the role of other …

Trabalho por turnos e vida familiar e social
A investigação sobre o impacto do trabalho por turnos na vida familiar e social tende a privilegiar apenas a perspetiva dos trabalhadores, sendo rara a investigação que compara a perspetiva de terceiros. Considerando esta limitação, o presente estudo contempla a perspetiva dos cônjuges de trabalhadores por turnos rotativos na compreensão do impacto do trabalho por turnos em dimensões da vida familiar e social, procurando avaliar se existem difere…
Individual Choice or Policies? Drivers of Female Employment in Europe
Individual Choice or Policies? Drivers of Female Employment in Europe
Female labor force participation has increased markedly in many European countries during the past decades. Nonetheless, participation rates remain low in some economies, and a significant gender gap persists in most countries. Using micro-level data to control for factors that influence personal choice, we re-examine the determinants of female employment in Europe. The results highlight the importance of positive attitudes towards women working …
Sobre a docência de música na educação básica
Este trabalho apresenta resultados de pesquisa que teve como objetivo compreender como diferentes municípios concebem a docência de música na educação básica. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, que adota como estratégia a pesquisa documental. Foram analisados 170 editais de concursos públicos para professores de artes, educação artística ou música, publicados por 153 municípios do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, entre agosto de 2008 e agosto de …
Coping as a moderator of the influence of economic stressors on psychological health
Since 2008, there has been a decline in the economy of several European countries, including Portugal. In the literature, it is emphasized that periods of economic uncertainty propitiate the appearance of mental health problems and diminish populations’ well-being. The aim of the present study, with 729 Portuguese participants, 33.9% (n = 247) males and 66.1% (n = 482) females with an average age of, approximately, 37 years old (M = 36.99; SD = 1…
Studying while doing time
Low levels of education and dropping out of school are associated with criminal involvement. The Portuguese prison system, similar to other prison systems (e.g. England), offers prison‐based educational programmes so inmates can complete compulsory education. However, the completion rate of these educational programmes is low, and the dropout rate is high. Deepening our understanding of how inmates conceptualise learning and how they engage in le…
Contributo de fatores individuais, sociais e ambientais para a decisão de prosseguir uma gravidez não planeada na adolescência
Foi nosso objetivo explorar o contributo simultâneo de fatores individuais, sociais e ambientais e das possíveis interações entre eles para a decisão de prosseguir uma gravidez adolescente à luz do atual quadro legislativo que despenaliza a interrupção da gravidez por opção da mulher, em Portugal. A amostra foi constituída por 276 adolescentes que engravidaram de forma não planeada e contactaram com os serviços de saúde dentro do prazo legal que …

P2-488 Dental caries in a Portuguese sample of schoolchildren
Background Dental caries is the most prevalent disease worldwide. The objective of this study was to determine the mean of decayed/missing/filled in permanent teeth (DMF-T index) and in primary teeth (dmf-t index) and verify the association with oral health behaviours and socio-demographic factors in children aged 5–12 years old. Participants and methods A sample of 605 children aged 5–12 years old, attending twenty-seven public schools in Sátão,…
Allele frequencies for twelve STR loci in two Bulgarian populations
The allele frequencies of 12 STRs (D2S1338, D3S1358, D5S818, D8S1179, D16S539, D18S51, D19S433, D21S11, FGA, TH01, TPOX, VWA) from two Bulgarian population samples are presented: ethnic Bulgarians and Karakachani. The descent of Karakachani is not known. They are regarded as descendants of an older Balkan population, or that they may have nearer genetic relationships to the Aromuns. Using the allele frequencies of the 12 STR polymorphisms, the ge…
