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…
I heard about some pills»
Departing from a broader sociological study, this article presents exploratory research seeking to analyse practices of online information exchange on the consumption of medicines and food supplements among students, mainly to improve cognitive performance. It aims to show that the Internet is a relevant space which should be considered when analysing where lay people, specifically students, get information about medicines. The empirical field wa…
Medicines and Medication Literacy
This article discusses results from a sociological study on (i) the sources and use of information on medicines and/or supplements and (ii) the self-assessment of how informed participants were about the last medicine or supplement they purchased. It seeks to demonstrate the plurality of information sources (expert and lay) that individuals call upon—with which they build up their medication literacy—and their perception of the information they h…

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 …
O ensino da sociologia em cursos superiores de outras áreas de formação
The present article seeks to help update what we know about Sociology’s place in Portuguese higher education — not as a primary academic field, but rather when mobilised by other courses and areas. After surveying the information in curricular plans, the author looks at how the discipline fits into the general framework of other courses and how useful people find it, with interviews of a number of senior staff (coordinators / teachers) from diffe…
Limited options or blocked mobility? The socio-professional mobility of Brazilian immigrants in Portugal
Though there is a long tradition of migration studies in Portugal, specific analysis of the socio-professional mobility of immigrants has received limited attention. Based on a survey that was carried out in 2009 and involved 1398 Brazilian immigrants, this text seeks to examine this topic in greater depth by observing their integration patterns at three points in time: before migration, on arrival and at the moment of the survey. The main issues…
A força dos laços fracos
Este texto aprofunda o tema das estratégias de obtenção de emprego entre imigrantes brasileiros em Portugal. Entre os principais objetivos está, em primeiro lugar, compreender a importância das redes sociais na obtenção de emprego no exterior, como mecanismo facilitador do processo de migração. Em segundo, explorar a hipótese de que, entre os migrantes internacionais, os "laços fracos" importam mais para obtenção de emprego do que os "laços forte…
Migrações e segmentação do mercado de trabalho O caso da migração brasileira para Portugal
Neste texto são revistos os padrões de inserção dos migrantes brasileiros no mercado de trabalho em Portugal. É argumentado que as oportunidades laborais disponíveis se encontram, na maior parte dos casos, entre os segmentos menos atrativos do mercado de trabalho e que predominam situações de precariedade laboral. A concentração naqueles segmentos prejudica as possibilidades de integração plena na sociedade portuguesa. Esta evidência decorre da o…
