- As Termópilas na poesia de Fernando CabritaPublication . Nogueira, AdrianaComo pode a poesia portuguesa contemporânea dialogar com a história grega? Como pode ultrapassar a barreira das referências genéricas eruditas? Poderá assumir-se como uma forma de ler a história contemporânea? Pretendemos encontrar respostas a estas perguntas, através do modo como o episódio das Termópilas surge na poesia de Fernando Cabrita. Começámos por enquadrar a batalha na fonte herodotiana e delineámos marcas da receção de alguns dos seus aspetos mais populares. Interessou-nos, ainda, analisar como este episódio concreto da história grega poderia ser uma forma de leitura de vivências da história portuguesa no último terço do século XX. Na análise do poema, procurámos as temáticas universais que nos permitem compreender a contemporaneidade, funcionando as referências históricas como catacreses poéticas.
- Mediterranean Diet: a multidisciplinary approach to develop a new territorial strategy.Publication . de Freitas, Ana; Dias Azinheira Rebelo Braz, Nídia Maria; BERNARDES, João Pedro; Cruz, Ana Lúcia; Quintas, Célia; Rodrigues Gonçalves, Alexandra; Romano, Anabela; Palma Mateus, MariaMediterranean Diet (MD) integrates territorial diversities, economic and lifestyle changes. These characteristics represent an enormous potential, for a sustainable food pattern and healthy lifestyles, biodiversity and to valorisation of local products. In 2013 Portugal joined the UNESCO MD application for Intangible Cultural Heritage. The University of Algarve, in a partnership with the Competence Centre for the Mediterranean Diet, 4 Regional Agriculture Directorates of mainland Portugal, Tavira City Council (Representative Community) and the Higher Education Institutions’ Network for MD Safe-guard, developed a set of activities with the aim of strengthening the national strategy for MD promotion and safeguard. The activities aimed to raise awareness of the MD characteristics in each territory and to enable effective articulation within the main stakeholders, in a quadruple helix – Agriculture, Health, Heritage and Tour-ism. It was possible to gather a wide range of actors with responsibility in preservation and promotion of MD in each Region. The created working groups are developing further work leading to a safeguard strategy for MD in each Region and the set-up of Regional Commissions for MD (CRDMs). Results point out the relevance of geographical indications (GI) registration of regional characteristic products as a key factor for MD safeguard.
- Psychological pathways to ocean conservation: a study of marine mammal park visitorsPublication . Neves, João; Giger, Jean-Christophe; Oliveira, João; Pacheco, Leonor; Gonçalves, Guilherme; Silva, Ana A.; Costa, InêsThis study investigated the psychological constructs related to ocean conservation among visitors to a marine mammal park in Portugal. A survey was conducted with 335 adult visitors, assessing value orientations, awareness of ocean vulnerability, attribution of responsibility, personal norms, and behavioral intentions towards ocean conservation. The results revealed two distinct attitudinal profiles among the visitors. 'Anthropocentric visitors' prioritize human interests over environmental concerns, along with heightened awareness of the ocean's vulnerability and greater ascription of responsibility to humans for environmental problems. 'Ecocentric visitors' recognize the intrinsic worth of nature, reporting deeper awareness of the consequences of environmental issues on the ocean, more robust personal norms centered on moral obligations towards conservation and higher behavioral intentions to support ocean conservation. Compared to whale-watching tourists from a previous study, the zoo visitors exhibited more polarized anthropocentric and ecocentric profiles, suggesting the whale-watching tourists fell somewhere between the two zoo visitor profiles in their psychological orientations. These contrasting profiles emphasize the heterogeneity in environmental attitudes and highlight the importance of tailoring interventions to resonate with the distinct psychological motivations of different audience segments. Institutions like zoos can play a vital role in shaping public attitudes through targeted communication strategies aligned with visitors' unique value systems and beliefs.
- Perfectionism and emotion regulation in the study of suicidal ideation in portuguese young adultsPublication . Brás, Marta; Antunes, João; Reis, Ana; Carmo, CláudiaSuicide is a serious public health problem worldwide, being the culmination of a process that normally begins with suicidal ideation. Therefore, it is important to assess suicidal ideation and know its risk factors. The association between perfectionism and suicidal ideation has been widely debated in the literature. However, knowledge about the role of emotion regulation in this relationship is scarce. The main objective of this investigation was thus to study the role of emotion regulation in the relationship between perfectionism and suicidal ideation in young adults. A sample of 224 Portuguese young adults was recruited through an online form which assessed suicidal ideation, perfectionism, and emotion regulation. The results showed a positive relationship between suicidal ideation and emotion regulation difficulties. There was also a positive association between emotion regulation difficulties and perfectionism, especially regarding the strategies and dimensions of maladaptive perfectionism. The relationship between perfectionism and suicidal ideation was fully mediated by emotion regulation difficulties. Increases in emotion regulation difficulties from increased perfectionism could contribute decisively to increasing the risk of suicidal ideation. Thus, the assessment of perfectionism and emotion regulation difficulties can promote the prevention and psychological interventions for suicidal behavior.
- Propositional density: cognitive impairment and agingPublication . Harrag, Chaimae; Sabil, Abdelkader; Conceição, Manuel Célio; Radvansky, Gabriel A.It is important to understand the relationship between cognitive abilities and language processing. Here, we explore a burgeoning area of research that harnesses semantic indices to predict cognitive impairment and track cognitive decline. One such index, propositional density, quantifies the information conveyed per language segment. Despite some variation stemming from methodological, sampling, and measurement differences, we suggest that propositional density has diagnostic and assessment value. This paper surveys existing studies that have used propositional density in the context of cognitive aging and impairment and offers some insights into the use of this index to highlight differences in cognition. We also suggest further explorations of basic research involving this concept, and some applications for assessing cognitive health.
- Mediating power of career adaptability between decent work and quality of life: study with tourism independent workersPublication . Faria, Liliana; Gouveia, Claudia Sofia; Florêncio, LuísThe promotion of decent work plays a central role in the transformation of tourism into a sustainable activity. The literature on this topic has multiplied, but it is imperative to pay more attention to workers in the potentially most vulnerable sectors, such as those without employment contracts and without formal higher education. The aim of this study on independent workers in tourism is to investigate how they perceive their work as decent and to analyze their quality of life. In addition, the study aims to analyze the mediating effect of career adaptability on the relationship between decent work and quality of life. The sample consists of 228 tourism workers in Portugal, mainly women, aged between 19 and 71 years. The results support the hypothesis that decent work can improve the quality of life of workers in the tourism industry. They also show that decent work is associated with a greater likelihood that workers are able and feel confident to adapt to changing tasks, to engage in continuous training and to manage their careers, which has a positive impact on their quality of life. The importance of prioritizing decent work and psychosocial resources to cope with the changing working and working conditions of the independent workers in the tourism sector in Portugal is discussed.
- The transformative potential of gender equality plans to expand women’s, gender, and feminist studies in higher education: grounds for vigilant optimismPublication . Lopes, Mónica; Santos, Caynnã; Ferreira, Virgínia; Monteiro, Rosa; Coimbra Vieira, Cristina MariaThe introduction of women's, gender, and feminist studies (WGFS) into higher education (HE) curricula has primarily been driven by individual efforts rather than institutional objectives. This article employs a multimethod approach to comprehensively understand the potential contribution of gender equality plans (GEPs) to strengthening the integration of WGFS in HE curricula and pedagogical practices. The study's documentary corpus includes data from GEPs in implementation, semi-structured interviews with 27 WGFS lecturers, and a web survey of 118 lecturers who teach courses related to or integrating gender aspects. This approach reveals divergent perspectives on the role of GEPs in HEIs, summarized into three categories: cautious optimism, skepticism, and simplistic views. The tensions and constraints associated with the contributions of the GEPs, as perceived by many involved in incorporating gender issues into teaching, outline a vigilant optimism for the future implementation of these mechanisms. Nonetheless, given the historically limited role of institutional initiatives in consolidating WGFS in Portuguese higher education, we argue that the potential contribution of GEPs to this field should not be underestimated, as integrating WGFS into institutional planning can legitimize, support, and leverage efforts that have predominantly been individual.
- Intraday quantile coherence between oil and European sectors during the Russia-Ukraine warPublication . Hanif, Waqas; El Khoury, Rim; Kang, Sang HoonThis study examines the interconnectedness between crude oil and European sectors during the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Using a quantile coherence approach, we investigate the intraday dynamics of market interactions at different quantiles and frequencies. The findings reveal that in the short-term, oil emerges as a robust hedge for 12 sectors in stable market conditions, transitioning to a weaker hedge during bullish and bearish market conditions. Furthermore, the long-term analysis shows a stronger coherence between oil and stock sector indices. The medium-term and long-term analyses reveal shifts in dependence structures, with oil acting as a safe haven in bullish markets for specific sectors. These findings provide valuable insights for investors and policymakers in managing risks amid geopolitical events, contributing to the existing literature on oil-European sector dynamics.
- Protective and stress factors for psychological distress: a comparative analysis of LGB and non-LGB older adultsPublication . Ribeiro-Gonçalves, José Alberto; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Leal, Isabel; Pereira, Dora; Fialho Pereira, Dora IsabelObjectives Population ageing raises major public health and psychosocial challenges. Particularly, lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) older people may face increased vulnerabilities and marginalization when compared to their non-LGB (heterosexual) counterparts, which may entail more risks for their mental health. The aim of this study was to comparatively evaluate the levels of protective – social support, spirituality, and resilience and stress factors – loneliness and ageism – among LGB and non-LGB older adults, and their impact on psychological distress (PD). Method A sample of 647 people aged 60 years or older (M = 66.01; SD = 4.93) was collected, 368 non-LGB and 279 LGB. Participation was carried out through an online survey in Portugal. Results LGB older adults had lower scores on all protective factors, except on social support from friends, and higher levels on all stress factors, except on hostile ageism, compared to non-LGB older adults. Further, resilience and loneliness were the main predictors of PD regardless of the sexual orientation. Stress factors explained the levels of PD over and above the effects of protective factors, both among LGB and non-LGB older adults. Conclusion Psychological distress in aging presents different protective and stressful factors according to the sexual orientation of older adults. More comparative studies are suggested in the intersection between ageing and sexual orientation.
- Cognitive, affective and behavioural repercussions of perceived quality in tourism vocational education: insights from self-determination theoryPublication . Silva, Rejane Santana da; Souki, Gustavo; Oliveira, Alessandro Silva de; Vieira, Luís Sérgio; Dionísio Serra, Manuel AntónioPurpose This study aimed to investigate the influence of the perceived quality by students regarding their experiences in vocational schools in tourism, hospitality and food service on cognitive and affective responses (satisfaction, self-efficacy expectations and self-regulation strategies of motivation for learning - SRSML) and commitment (behavioural response). Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 454 students from twelve Turismo de Portugal IP-affiliated schools. The theoretical framework was rooted in Self-Determination Theory (SDT) and PLS-SEM, using ADANCO 2.3 software to test the proposed model. Findings Perceived quality by students concerning their school experiences are socio-contextual factors that directly influence their satisfaction and self-efficacy expectations (cognitive and affective responses). Satisfaction and self-efficacy expectations positively affected SRSML. Finally, satisfaction and the SRSML positively impacted the students` commitment to schools (behavioural response). Originality/value This study contributes to academia by comprehensively addressing 16 perceived quality dimensions within vocational education. It aligns with SDT, revealing that socio-contextual factors affect students’ cognitive, affective, and behavioural responses. Additionally, it demonstrates positive relationships between student satisfaction, self-efficacy expectations, SRSML, and students’ commitment to vocational education institutions. This study emphasises the multidimensional nature of perceived quality, urging educational institutions to address tangible and intangible dimensions to develop strategies to provide high-quality experiences, increasing students` satisfaction, self-efficacy expectations, motivation, and commitment.
