  • Reliability of a questionnaire assessing daily practices of community mental health workers
    Publication . Castro, Ulysses Rodrigues de; Palha, António; Martins, José Carlos Amado; Oliveira, Nelson Rocha de
    Objective: Bioethical questions have been raised among community health workers in terms of the perceptions and threats that they face during their daily labor practices. Thus, questionnaires are required for assessing the issues experienced by these workers and the psychological effects experienced by primary care workers Therefore, this study demonstrates the reliability of a double scale based on a pilot study involving community health workers. Methods: A scale-based and validated methodological investigation was developed by including 97 community health workers in the Brazilian cities of Riacho Fundo I and Riacho Fundo II, located within the administrative region of Brasilia. Results: The perception scale's internal consistency exhibited good Cronbach's alpha values (0.76 overall and >0.75 for the different dimensions). Furthermore, the factor analysis presented a 3-factor solution with ratio significance. Conclusion: The scale exhibits good reliability and psychometric properties and has potential for use in future research.

  • A “interrupção de gravidez não punível” no anteprojeto do código penal de Angola. Algumas notas
    Publication . Moutinho, José Lobo
    O Anteprojeto do Código Penal de Angola prevê um amplo e atualizado quadro de causas de exclusão da ilicitude e da culpa aplicáveis à generalidade dos crimes, nos quais desde há muito recebem o seu enquadramento, ponderação e solução às situações de conflito de bens jurídicos, incluindo as dramáticas situações de vida contra vida, como a da tábua de Carnéades, na qual dois náufragos se tentam salvar agarrando- -se à mesma tábua que só comporta um deles. Não sendo o embrião um ser humano de segunda classe, mas antes um ser humano com uma vida humana com o mesmo valor do que qualquer outra deve ser segundo esses princípios, apurados e equilibrados mediante uma reflexão e uma experiência multisseculares, que a questão da exclusão da punibilidade do aborto ou interrupção da gravidez deve ser equacionada e decidida. Uma exclusão da punibilidade mais ampla do que essa para a interrupção da gravidez comporta necessariamente uma descriminação violadora da dignidade humana do embrião e da sua igualdade essencial a todos os outros seres humanos e só pode contribuir para o número de abortos, em vez de procurar evitá-los.
