- Do acordo de colaboração à sentença premial : contributo para o desenvolvimento de um novo paradigma processual penalPublication . Sousa, Carla Maria Pires de Barros e Pereira; Silva, Germano Marques daO atual sistema penal português prevê um sistema premial de que pode aproveitar o autor de factos jurídico-criminalmente relevantes em caso de colaboração para a descoberta da verdade material. Porém, a legislação processual penal não acompanhou essa evolução, não estando legalmente previsto qualquer expediente de que o colaborador possa lançar mão como garantia de que essa contribuição para a descoberta da verdade será valorada em sede de determinação da medida da pena no âmbito de uma sentença condenatória. Na verdade, o legislador sentiu necessidade de dotar o sistema processual de um sistema que fizesse repercutir na fase de julgamento um eventual contributo colaborativo do arguido. Assim, o art. 283.º, n.º 3 al. c) do CPP (na redação dada pela Lei n.º 94/2021 de 21.12) estabelece que a acusação deve conter, sob pena de nulidade, para além do mais, todos os factos relevantes para uma eventual aplicação do instituto da dispensa de pena ou da atenuação especial da pena. Parece-nos que este sistema é insuficiente já que deixa exclusivamente na mão do acusador a descrição daqueles factos, não tendo o arguido qualquer capacidade decisória quanto àquela matéria. Assim, o CPP deverá ser dotado de um mecanismo premial de consenso a estabelecer entre o arguido (devidamente representado por defensor/mandatário) e o magistrado do Ministério Público por forma a garantir que no inquérito conste a descrição de todos os comportamentos colaborativos por aquele adotados. Tal mecanismo deverá incluir ainda a participação do JIC a quem caberá a homologação. Mais do que apresentar uma concreta proposta no âmbito do direito a constituir, este estudo pretende participar numa discussão que já se encontra em curso de forma a contribuir para a aceitação da ideia de que é necessário implementar garantias processuais penais no âmbito do inquérito de que o arguido possa mais tarde aproveitar na fase de julgam
- A relação entre as modalidades de trabalho com o work-life balance e a intenção de turnover na geração ZPublication . André, Rafaela Silva Pereira Ramos; Monarca, Maria Adélia de JesusEste estudo investigou como as modalidades de trabalho 100% remota, 100% presencial e híbrida influenciam o work-life balance e a intenção de turnover na Geração Z. Utilizou-se método de investigação quantitativo, com amostragem não probabilística por conveniência e a técnica bola de neve na recolha de dados. A amostra foi composta por 84 indivíduos entre 18 e 29 anos, falantes da língua portuguesa e profissionalmente ativos. Os dados foram recolhidos por meio de um questionário disponibilizado na plataforma Qualtrics, incluindo variáveis sociodemográficas, a Escala de Work–Life Balance e a Escala de Intenção de Turnover. Os resultados indicam que a modalidade de trabalho não se relaciona significativamente com o WLB. Verificou-se correlação positiva entre a interferência do trabalho na vida pessoal e a intenção de turnover, bem como entre a interferência da vida pessoal no trabalho e a intenção de turnover. Já o enriquecimento do trabalho para a vida pessoal apresentou correlação negativa com a intenção de turnover. A modalidade de trabalho híbrida foi a preferida entre os participantes e esteve associada a níveis mais baixos de intenção de turnover. Conclui-se que, ao proporcionar maior flexibilidade, essa modalidade atende melhor às demandas da Geração Z, contribuindo para sua permanência nas organizações.
- O papel da inteligência emocional e as diferenças entre mulheres e homens no equilíbrio entre o trabalho e a vida pessoalPublication . Vilar, Gabriela Penafort; Monarca, Maria Adélia de JesusEste estudo transversal e quantitativo investigou a associação entre a inteligência emocional (IE) e o equilíbrio entre o trabalho e a vida pessoal (WLB), além das diferenças entre mulheres e homens, no contexto português. A lacuna está na escassez de pesquisas em contexto português e dimensões desses construtos. Amostra com 92 participantes, sendo composta na maioria por mulheres (n = 62). Utilizou-se a escala de Schutte (SSEIT) para IE e de Hayman (2005) para WLB, com análises de correlação (Pearson) e comparação (Teste t). Não houve correlação global significativa entre IE e WLB, mas o enriquecimento do trabalho na vida pessoal (WPLE) correlacionou-se positivamente com o gerenciamento das próprias emoções (GPE) e das emoções dos outros (GEO). Em relação às diferenças, as mulheres apresentaram o GEO mais elevado que os homens, mas sem diferenças significativas no WLB global. Concluiu-se que habilidades emocionais (GPE/GEO) podem promover o enriquecimento trabalho-vida, mas não mitigam interferências mútuas. As organizações podem adotar estratégias combinadas (treinamentos em IE e políticas de flexibilidade). A ausência de diferenças de sexo no WLB sugere que contextos específicos (e.g., ausência de dependentes) podem neutralizar disparidades culturais. Recomenda-se ampliar a amostra e incluir variáveis contextuais em futuras pesquisas.
- Innovative response : how the spinal marrow clot may transform spinal fusion surgeryPublication . Brodano, Tommaso Barbanti; Rajsingh, Peter V.This teaching case discusses a scientific research project developed at IRCCS Istituto Ortopedico Rizzoli. The findings describe the process of creating an innovation in spinal fusion surgery using cell-based therapy based on whole vertebral bone marrow aspirate (vBMA). The purpose is to analyze how this innovation that may impact a significant sector of the medical industry, came into being. And, from this case, we seek to provide insights into how innovation develops and gains diffusion. Given the projected exponential increase of spinal fusions in the next 40 years and high costs of current procedures, vBMA offers an opportunity to transform conventional spinal fusion surgery. In this context, vBMA emerges as a potentially disruptive force, aimed at redefining and revolutionizing conventional spinal fusion surgery practices. It also has the potential to significantly reduce costs while maintaining a high rate in successful patient outcomes, which makes it a game-changer in the medical industry. We discuss the process - from how the idea came about to shifting medical practices and industry resistance - which makes the Case relevant for students of innovatin and enterpreneurship. Students will acquaint themselves with key challenges encountered during the process of innovation adoption and the hurdles associated with bringing about disruptive change.
- Domingo como dia do Senhor e «senhor dos dias». : do cumprimento do preceito à construção de comunidades missionáriasPublication . Rocha, Márcio Miguel Tavares; Leal, Sérgio Filipe PinhoFrom the very beginning of Christianity, Sunday has been considered the main day for the Christian community, as it is associated with key events in the faith, such as celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the sending of the Holy Spirit and the celebration of the Eucharist. Though, over time, the community dimension of Sunday celebrations diminished, reducing Sunday practice to mere passive attendance at Eucharistic worship and strict fulfilment of the Sunday norm. This ignored the liturgical assembly as a community that consciously celebrates the mysteries of faith. Nonetheless, the ecclesial renewal of the Second Vatican Council restored the communal character of Sunday, particularly in the celebration of the Sunday Eucharist in parish communities (cf. SC 42). This dissertation aims to demonstrate that, because of its innate novelty, Sunday remains the day par excellence of the Christian community, and therefore the day of its edification and sending out on mission. In a socio-cultural and religious context characterised by new paradigms, this work offers a reading of the Christian experience of Sunday that is more community-oriented and helps to rediscover the beauty of a community that lives and celebrates its faith. Nourished by the Word and the Bread of Life at every Sunday assembly, this community must bear witness to the Kingdom of God in an ever-changing world.
- Exploring ESG scores relationships with profitability : a heteroscedastic approach across industries and across timePublication . Rodrigues , Ana Vitória de Brito; Cerqueiro, GeraldoThis study examines the relationship between ESG Scores on profitability, measured by EBITDA per Share, across 10 U.S. industries from 2003 to 2023. Using data from Refinitiv Eikon, three regression models were applied: one focused on specific industries, showing the impact within each and two heteroscedastic regressions to study the overall performance across years and across industries. Industry-specific results indicate a small but increasing impact of ESG Scores on profitability in recent years. Overall Performance results show that the Basic Materials, Healthcare, Technology and Financials Industries experience the highest volatility of ESG Scores. These findings show the growing importance of ESG Scores in analysing profitability.
- A Theologia Crucis : à luz da obra Mysterium Paschale de Hans Urs von BalthasarPublication . Luca, Francesco de; Palma, Alexandre Coutinho Lopes de BritoThis dissertation investigates the theological and spiritual relevance of the theologia crucis in light of Hans Urs von Balthasar’s masterpiece, Mysterium Paschale. Starting from the paradox between human suffering and divine revelation, the study aims to understand how the cross can constitute a legitimate place of knowledge of God. The first part analyzes the historical, theological, and spiritual foundations of the theologia crucis in the Protestant and Catholic traditions. The second part, the central point of our study, focuses on Balthasar’s theological synthesis, highlighting the cross as the ultimate revelation of Trinitarian love. The author emphasizes the centrality of the Holy Saturday and divine kenosis as an expression of God’s solidarity with the world. Finally, the ecclesiological dimension of this theology is explored, where the Church is understood as an extension of the Paschal Mystery. The dissertation thus proposes a theology deeply rooted in spirituality, in which the cross is simultaneously a place of abandonment and revelation, suffering and glory.
- Pai, Filho e Espírito Santo : o conceito de ‘pessoa’ na teologia da imanência trinitária de Hans Urs von Balthasar na Theodramatik.Publication . Amarelo, Bernardo Miguel Dias Saraiva e; Palma, Alexandre Coutinho Lopes de BritoIn this project, our primary intention is to identify the configuration of the concept of person as understood by Hans Urs von Balthasar within the framework of Trinitarian imma-nence, as developed in the author’s theological dramatics, the Theodramatik. A secondary aim is to describe how, within this very notion, the Swiss theologian articulates personal singularity and relational dynamics within the Divine Persons. To achieve this, we begin, in the first chapter, by presenting the life and work of Hans Urs von Balthasar, focusing particularly on his theological Aesthetics, Dramatics, and Logic trilogy, as well as the major influences of other authors on his theological thought. In the second chapter, we survey the elements of Trinitarian immanent theology that Balthasar presents across the various volumes of the Theodramatik. Finally, in the third and concluding chapter of this work, we develop a systematic ac-count of the theology of divine intimacy within the One and Triune God. We then expound upon the individuation of the concept of person within the context of Balthasar’s reflection on divine immanence in his theological dramatics, as well as the way the author articulates personal singularity and relational dynamics within the Divine Persons.
- Indulgências, um rosto misericordioso de Deus : a história e a teologia da doutrina das indulgênciasPublication . Penha, Raúl Isaac Fonseca Pereira; Duque, João Manuel Correia RodriguesIndulgences are a treasure of the merciful love of God. Sin has consequences – temporal punishment –, which must be healed with good works. And because we belong to the Church – Mystical Body of Christ –, we are not alone in this path and we can be helped by the merits of other members of this Body – communion of Saints: the merits of Christ, achieved in His work of redemption, and the merits of the Saints. The Church, by the authority received from Christ himself, applies these merits – the treasure of the Church – to the faithful who fulfill certain conditions and dispositions. The love offered to us by God through the indulgences is an immense and undeserved gift and must be satisfied by the detachment from sin and the practice of good works. Just as we receive indulgence, so can we offer indulgence to the other members of the Mystical Body who need it. Indulgences are a path of purification so that union with God and with brothers have fewer barriers. Their ultimate end is the communion with God and with others in

Giordani, Leonardo; Rodrigues, HelenaThis dissertation aims at investigating which are the features that most affect wine tourists’ experience during a winery visit. The study examines and aims at discovering the value attached to winery attributes for Old World tourists, and their impact on the overall wine visit evaluation. Although the wine tourism industry understanding is expanding, what factors are most valued by wine tourists remains relatively unexplored. Jointly with existing literature on consumer behaviour and tourism marketing, this dissertation offers an in-depth analysis of how these characteristics impact wine tourists’ preferences.
The study employs a qualitative methodology that comprehends user-generated content analysis, using Leximancer text analysis software. Patterns and preferences are identified by examining participants’ reviews related to the overall rating assigned.
The findings, after analyzing 550 reviews, gathered from 55 countries in different Old World countries show that quality wines, jointly to an informative and enjoyable tour, represent the most valued attributes. It is also highlighted the importance of a skilled and personable staff, able to convey the experience. The dissertation offers practical suggestions for wineries to better customize their offering, with the aim of being more attractive for wine tourists.
