- Lola Montès: Max Ophüls's final dive into circularity and repetitionPublication . Natálio, CarlosThis article aims to reflect on the testamentary dimension of Max Ophüls’ last feature film, Lola Montès, from a research context that seeks to understand the thematic, narrative, and stylistic traits of film directors’ last films. Through a mobilisation of Gilles Deleuze’s concept of crystal image, and a film analysis of the work and comparison with other important Ophüls films, this paper argues that the constant movement of the characters and the filmmaker’s camera throughout his body of work is, in this testament film, transformed into an infernal circularity in which its protagonist is imprisoned. This movement without escape, based on the circularity of the circus arena in which Lola is held captive, is ultimately a way of portraying the decadence and exploitation of mass entertainment culture in its logic of capture, exploitation and commodification of its “human products.” The culmination of circularity and repetition in this capture is associated with the degradation of both the living performative body of Lola and the figure of its director Max Ophüls, given that Lola Montès was not only a very difficult film to direct but also very poorly received at the time of its release.
- The sexual self-esteem inventory - short form (SSEI-SF): factor structure of the scale for the Portuguese populationPublication . Mendes, Liliana; Leonido, Levi; Carvalho, Inês; Barbosa, Ana; Martins, Ana; Ribeiro, Maria; Morgado, Elsa GabrielIntroduction. Sexuality plays a pivotal role in human life, shaping individuals’ perceptions and practices, known as sexual self-esteem, which significantly influences attitudes and behaviours. Aim. This study aimed to examine the factor structure and reliability of the Sexual Self-Esteem Inventory (SSEI) in its abbreviated form for the Portuguese population, considering five distinct aspects: Skill/Experience, Attractiveness, Control, Moral Judgment, and Adaptiveness. Method. A cross-sectional, quantitative, comparative, and correlational study with a quasi-experimental design was conducted. A total of 901 individuals aged 18 to 39 years (M = 25.52, SD = 6.27), predominantly female (67.8%), participated in the study. The factor structure was analysed via exploratory factor analysis, and instrument reliability was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha. Results. The exploratory factor analysis yielded 24 items organized into four factors – Emotional Readiness, Competence and Experience, Attractiveness, and Adaptiveness - explaining 51.99% of the total variance. All factors exhibited good internal consistency. Conclusion. Thus, the inventory demonstrated adequate factor structure and reliability and is deemed suitable for assessing self-perceptions regarding sexuality across four dimensions in a Portuguese sample.
- Cinematographic resonances: points of contact and overflows in the definition of experimental-structural cinema alongside the cinematic oeuvre of Narcisa Hirsch and Rose LowderPublication . Vargas, Paola VelaExperimental cinema, understood here as a porous concept originating in the Western world, grew a structuralist offshoot, which influenced the production of specific movies made in Latin America, which distanced themselves from Third Cinema, a popular movement of the 60s and 70s. Within this subculture, and immediately afterwards in the 80s and 90s, two filmmakers and visual artists sprang into view: Narcisa Hirsch, born in Berlin, but working and filming in Argentina; and Rose Lowder, born in Lima and working in France. At first glance, it could be said that their films dialog with the styles and the goals of what has been known as structural film, a movement of the English-speaking world. However, these two filmmakers, having taken this movement as their starting point, refused to adhere to its norms. This allows us to reflect upon the filmic resonances of their work while also transcending the confines of structural film. In order to accomplish this, we must first define experimental and structural film, citing both Western and Latin American authors, such as Duncan Reekie, A. L. Rees, P. Adams Sitney, Peter Gidal, Juan Pablo Lattanzi, Andrea Giunta and Silvestre Byron. Secondly, we shall analyze Lowder and Hirsch's filmic oeuvre while drawing on various other authors. In so doing, we shall unlock new perspectives of two key female actors, who propose a transformation of cinematic language, putting into question no only how the images of cinema might be perceived, but also how the concept of experimental cinema can be understood within Latin America or outside of it.
- AYA - I Am Not Afraid of You: combining assessment tools for evaluating a theater of the oppressed workshopPublication . Chagas, Lorena de Oliveira; Baltazar, André; Moreno, Ana Filipa; Bines, Rosana Kohl; Oliveira-Silva, Patrícia; Sá, CristinaThis interdisciplinary study investigates the transformative potential of the workshop AYA—I Am Not Afraid of You (“Aya—Não tenho medo de ti”), an innovative program that employs Theater of the Oppressed techniques to enhance well-being and empower young women. Participants engaged in collaborative and expressive activities to address and reframe experiences of oppression, fostering personal growth and collective resilience. A comprehensive mixed-method evaluation—integrating qualitative reflections, observational insights, surveys, and psychophysiological data—assessed the workshop’s influence on emotional well-being, reduction of reactiveness, and empowerment. The workshop took place in Porto, Portugal, with a small, purposefully selected sample of nine young Lusophone women, of Portuguese and Brazilian nationalities. While small in scale and diversity, the study demonstrates how such assessments can be adapted across cultural contexts. Results indicated improvements in well-being and embodied emotional indicators.
- Rethinking school inclusion: a comparative analysis of decree-laws No. 3/2008 and No. 54/2018 in Portugal based on UNESCO reportsPublication . Morgado, Elsa Gabriel; Pereira, Antonino; Gouveia, Luís Borges; Rodrigues, João Bartolomeu; Leonido, LeviThis article proposes a comparative analysis of Decree-Laws No. 3/2008 and No. 54/2018, legal instruments that define the models for supporting inclusive education in Portugal. By linking national regulatory developments with data and recommendations from UNESCO’s monitoring reports (GEM Reports), this research assesses the structural and conceptual changes underlying Portuguese education policy. The research follows a qualitative approach, of an exploratory and interpretative nature, using comparative document analysis as the central method. The results reveal a transition from a model focused on categorizing students with special educational needs (SEN) to an approach focused on universally meeting the needs of all students. The Discussion and Conclusions and Recommendations highlight the need to strengthen teacher training, pedagogical leadership, and monitoring based on disaggregated data, as recommended by UNESCO.
- Síndrome de Burnout: estudo da sua manifestação através de relatos de exposição a stress laboral crónicoPublication . Bezerra, Sefisa Quixadá; Araújo, Francisca Clarice de; Silva, Levi; Carvalho, Carminda Manuel Nogueira de; Morgado, Elsa GabrielNos últimos anos, as doenças psicossomáticas têm se tornado cada vez mais frequentes nas diversas áreas profissionais, gerando crescente preocupação na sociedade. Dentre essas doenças, destaca-se a Síndrome de Burnout, que será o foco deste estudo. A Síndrome de Burnout pode ser definida como uma resposta ao estresse crônico experimentado por indivíduos cujas profissões exigem interação constante com outras pessoas, caracterizando-se como um esgotamento físico e emocional relacionado ao trabalho. Embora compartilhe semelhanças com outras condições psicossomáticas, a Síndrome de Burnout é exclusiva do contexto laboral, sendo tratada por meio da modificação do estilo de vida e das condições de trabalho, aliados ao suporte psicológico. Em casos mais graves, o tratamento pode exigir acompanhamento psiquiátrico e o uso de medicamentos. Este estudo qualitativo visa explorar as manifestações da Síndrome de Burnout, com o objetivo de contribuir para a compreensão de gestores e administradores sobre as necessidades de apoio dos colaboradores que enfrentam essa condição no ambiente de trabalho, além de fornecer subsídios para futuras pesquisas práticas sobre o tema. A partir dos relatos analisados, observou-se que as organizações, muitas vezes, não reconhecem as manifestações da Síndrome de Burnout, o que dificulta a assistência adequada aos funcionários afetados. Os trabalhadores mais propensos a desenvolver a síndrome são aqueles altamente motivados pelo compromisso organizacional, que se dedicam intensamente ao seu trabalho.
- Inteligência artificial e transformação social: impactos, desafios e oportunidadesPublication . Morgado, Elsa Gabriel; Leonido, Levi; Gouveia, Luís BorgesA Inteligência Artificial (IA) tem um impacto profundo e multifacetado na sociedade, impulsionando avanços económicos, sociais e tecnológicos. Verifica-se que a IA possui um elevado potencial para otimizar processos, transformar indústrias e melhorar a tomada de decisão em setores como saúde, educação e transportes. No entanto, a sua disseminação levanta desafios significativos, nomeadamente a substituição de postos de trabalho, o aumento das desigualdades sociais e questões éticas relacionadas com privacidade e viés algorítmico. Dada a complexidade destas implicações, torna-se essencial equilibrar a inovação tecnológica com a responsabilidade social, garantindo regulamentações que promovam equidade, transparência e segurança. A colaboração entre governos, setor privado e sociedade civil revela-se fundamental para maximizar os benefícios da IA, mitigando os seus riscos. Assim, com base numa matriz bibliográfica e numa análise crítica das evidências, conclui-se que a IA representa simultaneamente uma oportunidade de transformação e um desafio crítico, cuja gestão determinará o seu impacto no futuro da humanidade.
- Ensino, pesquisa e extensão: estudo de caso sobre a produção e aplicação do conhecimento no Sertão central cearensePublication . Carneiro, Stânia Nágila Vasconcelos; Gouveia, Luís Borges; Silva, Levi; Morgado, Elsa GabrielA Constituição Federal Brasileira estabelece que as universidades devem adotar o princípio da indissociabilidade entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão, o chamado Tripé Universitário, essencial para definir o papel dessas instituições na sociedade. Esse princípio busca ampliar o impacto do ensino superior, integrando teoria e prática com foco no aperfeiçoamento coletivo. Este projeto analisa a extensão universitária no curso de Direito de uma instituição no Ceará, através de um estudo qualitativo exploratório, utilizando observação, entrevistas estruturadas e diários de campo. Foram entrevistados dez participantes (n = 10), incluindo gestores, professores e alunos envolvidos em ações de extensão. Apesar de o fluxo de conhecimento ser comumente transferido da universidade para a sociedade, há necessidade de uma relação mais dialógica. Para os professores, a extensão oferece aprendizado prático, mas precisa incentivar uma colaboração crítica. A curricularização da extensão é uma mudança epistemológica, e a pesquisa destaca a integração entre pesquisa e extensão, exemplificada na pesquisa-ação.
- Neuromuscular control and musculoskeletal injuries in musicians: a critical reviewPublication . Cardoso, Mário; Leonido, Levi; Morgado, Elsa GabrielMusicians are highly vulnerable to musculoskeletal injuries due to the repetitive and sustained physical demands of playing instruments. While neuromuscular control is crucial in stabilising joints and muscles to prevent such injuries, its role in developing and preventing MSIs has received limited attention. In this review, we synthesise findings from studies examining the impact of neuromuscular control and training interventions on MSIs in musicians. Evidence suggests that proprioceptive training, motor control exercises, and dynamic stability drills can enhance joint stability and reduce injury risk, positively affecting performance outcomes. However, much of the existing research is limited by cross-sectional designs. Future studies should focus on longitudinal approaches to better understand the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying these benefits and explore the practical implications of integrating neuromuscular training into musicians’ routines for long-term physical health and career sustainability.
