Binaural and/or stereo self-listening as a tool for musical performance simulation
This exploratory study investigated the effects of binaural and stereo self-listening on musicians’ neural responses during the mental simulation of their own musical performances. Six musicians participated in two EEG-monitored sessions in which they listened to binaural and stereo recordings of their performances in a counterbalanced order. Our hypothesis was that binaural recordings, by preserving head-related transfer functions, would elicit …
Optimizing working memory assessment
Given the lengthy administration of most working memory (WM) tasks, some researchers have developed reduced versions of these tests. However, they have focused primarily on complex spans. Recent studies suggested that estimating working memory capacity (WMC) using multiple tasks from different paradigms enhances measurement accuracy by isolating WMC variation from task- and paradigm-specific influences. Considering this, we evaluated whether comp…
Validation of the Compassion Fatigue Short Scale among Portuguese firefighters
This study aimed to adapt the Compassion Fatigue-Short Scale to Portugal and examine the reliability and validity of the Portuguese version of the scale (Pt-CF-Short Scale) among Portuguese firefighters. The factor structure of the Pt-CF-Short Scale was compared to the one-factor model fit and a two-factor model and second-order factor model in a sample of 512 firefighters. Confirmatory factor analysis procedures confirmed the good fit of a secon…
When he smiles
The impact of sexual dimorphism on facial attractiveness has been controversial owing to contradictory results, particularly in studies on female preferences. Given that sexually dimorphic facial features, especially more masculine ones, have been previously related to the perception of anger, we investigated the bi-directional influence of emotional expressions and facial masculinity and explored their impact on women's preferences for facial ma…
Firefighters under alert
Firefighters have high exposure to traumatic events and have an increased risk of developing symptoms related to trauma. The current study assessed the psychological morbidity, empathy and alexithymia of volunteer firefighters compared to career firefighters and to non-firefighter comparators from the general population. Group differences were assessed using multivariate comparisons and univariate tests and discriminant analysis for individual me…
Validation study of the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Cognitive Function-Version 3 for the Portuguese population
The Portuguese FACT-Cog-v3 version can be considered a reliable and valid measure to assess cognitive concerns of patients with non-CNS cancers, with relevance for research and clinical practice
Attentional Bias Toward Reproduction-Related Stimuli and Fertility Concerns Among Breast Cancer Survivors
The current study examined whether an attentional bias exists for reproduction-related visual cues among breast cancer survivors and its relationship with fertility concerns and emotional distress. Breast cancer survivors ( n = 38) aged 18-40 were compared to 37 healthy women recruited from the general population. Attentional bias was investigated using a visual dot-probe task and response times (RT) were measured. Participants also completed sev…
Neuroticism and Attention Toward Sexual and Non-Sexual Images During an Oddball Task
Juventude brasileira em pauta
(analytical): In view of the situation of social vulnerability and limited visibility of youth in the Brazilian social and political contexts and its norms and legislation, the objective of this article is to discuss the process of young people’s political participation. To achieve this, a documentary analysis was carried out of the proposals approved in National Youth Conferences as well as the content of the sessions related to the rights of yo…
The role of sexually dimorphic skin colour and shape in attractiveness of male faces
Measuring Evaluation Fears in Adolescence
Modified measures of Fear of Negative Evaluation and Fear of Positive Evaluation were examined among Portuguese adolescents. These measures demonstrated replicable factor structure, internal consistency, and positive relationships with social anxiety and avoidance. Gender differences were found. Implications for evaluation and intervention are discussed
