- Consumption patterns and television content preferences of Portuguese higher education studentsPublication . Gouveia, Teresa; Sobral, FilomenaIntroduction: After emerging as a groundbreaking communication technology and experiencing periods of peak popularity, Portuguese free-to-air (FTA) television now operates in a competitive, multiplatform attention market. What are higher education students’ perceptions of FTA TV, and what types of content do they consume? Objective: The main objective of this study was to identify open-signal television consumption trends among a group of Portuguese higher education students. Methods: A case study design was adopted, using an online questionnaire for data collection. The sample consisted of 89 communication and arts students from the Polytechnic Institute of Viseu during the 2023/2024 academic year. Results: Findings show that young people continue to watch FTA TV on television sets more than on mobile devices, underscoring the need for broadcasters to invest in flexibility and diversified programming. News and fictional content remain the students’ preferred genres, given their informational and entertainment value. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of stimulating the domestic FTA market to offer a more competitive range of content. Conclusion: This study provides insights into FTA television consumption trends, useful not only to the academic community but also to the broader media sector, which competes for audience attention in an increasingly competitive marketplace.
- Detetives e dragões: brincadeira, improviso e reminiscência com um grupo de mulheres mais velhas em PortugalPublication . Cardoso, Eduardo PradoEste artigo apresenta uma experiência realizada em Portugal, no âmbito do programa de solidariedade social Aproximar Oeiras, com um grupo de dez mulheres reformadas (aposentadas). Foram feitos jogos, improvisações e práticas de reminiscência que tiveram como objetivo o fortalecimento da expressão, da escuta ativa, da cooperação e do senso de comunidade. O trabalho foi fundamentado em reflexões críticas sobre a lógica neoliberal e produtivista que marginaliza as pessoas mais velhas, e por isso jogos de detetive e que exploraram fluxos de concentração mobilizaram a criatividade e o riso, ao mesmo tempo em que estimularam a consciência crítica e a escuta. A prática culminou em uma apresentação intergeracional para crianças de uma instituição local, em que as atrizes, transformadas também em dramaturgas, criaram uma narrativa natalina centrada em temas como solidão e comunhão, e o espetáculo reforçou a importância do encontro entre gerações e a valorização à multiplicidade de corpos, vozes e memórias presentes no envelhecer.
- Sensacionalismo, crítica política e assassinato de reputação: a imprensa portuguesa perante o governo de João Franco e a monarquia de D. Carlos I (1906-1908)Publication . Sardica, José MiguelO objetivo deste texto é o de recontar e analisar a conjuntura particularmente dramática da relação entre o poder e a imprensa no tempo do governo do conselheiro regenerador-liberal João Franco (1906-1908), uma aposta pessoal do rei D. Carlos I no quadro da política portuguesa do início do século XX. A lógica partidária desse executivo, a sua pretendida obra reformista, a forma como rompeu com a elite monárquica tradicional e como afrontou a oposição dos republicanos levaram a imprensa de vários quadrantes ao paroxismo da linguagem acusatória contra o rei e o seu conselheiro. Perante uma opinião pública muito mais fragmentada do que em tempos anteriores, porque mais republicanizada, o rei D. Carlos I e os líderes partidários dos seus governos foram sujeitos a um inusitado escrutínio público, onde a linguagem e a imagem (títulos e textos jornalísticos, caricaturas e fotografias) atuaram para criar uma atmosfera acusatória emocional, de sensacionalismo, crítica política e assassinato de reputação, influindo nos acontecimentos e na visão percecionada do monarca e dos governantes, e obrigando estes ao dilema de procurarem captar a simpatia pública, em busca da popularidade, ou a defesa reputacional, em nome da autoridade.
- The orphic 'fleeting glimpse' in some of its remediationsPublication . Bär, GeraldThe myth of Orpheus and Eurydice was revitalized and perpetuated during the first decades of the twentieth century in literature and other arts. Influenced by literature, painting and music, cinema has retold and re-enacted this myth in many variations, from Destiny (Lang, 1921) to Cocteau’s Orphic trilogy (1930-60). Revisiting the Orphic ‘fleeting glimpse’ in some of its modernist re-mediations and comparing its pictorial and cinematographic expression will provide further insight into its adaptations and transformations and into the technology involved in these processes. The present investigation focuses on the technical reproducibility of the invisible and analyses its pictorial, poetic and cinematographic expression in the cultural exchange between Rodin, Rilke and Cocteau.
- A recipe for privacy: artists’ books and the role of culinary exchange in The Leaked Recipes CookbookPublication . Weinholtz, TeresaFollowing their investigation into the Enron accounting scandal in 2001, the US government released over 500,000 of the company’s emails to the public. In addition to insight into the professional and personal lives of former Enron employees, these leaked correspondences also include the occasional sharing of recipes. In her artist’s book The Leaked Recipes Cookbook (2022), artist and human rights researcher Demetria Glace collects over fifty recipes from the released Enron data as well as other publicly available, leaked email databases. Artists’ books as a genre are often associated with politically motivated activity, with the book format acting as the medium for the dissemination of ideas (Burkhart 2007, 25; Drucker 2004, 287). Accordingly, I argue, The Leaked Recipes Cookbook adopts the medium of the artist’s cookbook to provide social commentary on the topics of privacy, gender and food culture. In this paper, I examine the role of the compiled cookbook as both a unifying and humanising force in a context of corruption and loss of privacy, and as an agent of feminist critique in a world of gendered food culture. To achieve this, I analyse selected excerpts from The Leaked Recipes Cookbook within the context of their respective recipe exchange, through the lens of the artist’s book genre as an artistic vehicle of social commentary.
- Leadership efficacy, perceived sport performance, and satisfaction with leadership of competitive athletesPublication . Sousa, Jacinta; Morais, Catarina; Gomes, A. Rui; Simães, Clara; Abreu, Andrés; Resende, RuiThe Leadership Efficacy Model is an integrative approach that considers three distinct factors involved in leadership efficacy that simultaneously contribute to explaining leadership efficacy (i.e., Optimized Congruence Hypothesis; OCH): leadership cycles, leadership styles, and antecedent factors of leadership. This study tested the OCH by evaluating the relationship between leadership cycles and the perception of sport performance (individual and team) and satisfaction with leadership, considering also the influence of leadership styles and antecedent factors of leadership. It also tested the invariance of the OCH according to athletes’ gender and type of sport. The study included 255 athletes (146 women) playing basketball or volleyball competitively. Results indicated the need for coaches to explain leadership cycles further to their athletes and confirmed the OCH for perception of individual sport performance and satisfaction with leadership. This relationship was mediated by leadership styles and antecedent factors, regardless of athletes’ gender and type of sport. In summary, coaches should consider the leadership cycles, styles, and antecedent factors of leadership to increase their efficacy.
- How a small-scale panic turns into an unstoppable news wave about mass mugging on the beachPublication . Rosa, Gonçalo PereiraAn incident on a Portuguese beach in 2005 was built and distorted in the national media as an instance of a new crime, replicating known parameters of the Brazilian ‘arrastão’ (mass mugging). This chapter aims to discuss news values, organizational routines, self-referential production standards and bias and prejudice in newsrooms. The chapter suggests that, when in progress, a news wave – built with the contributions of major mass media organizations – is a near unstoppable force and any arguments against it tend to be dismissed.
- Pedagogias do luto: arte, estudos culturais e cosmovisões do bem-viverPublication . Cardoso, Eduardo Prado; Prado, Irene ChavesA partir de uma experiência artístico-pedagógica realizada em 2025 com um grupo de mulheres aposentadas em Portugal, discute-se como o entrelaçamento dos estudos culturais com cosmovisões que propagam o bem-viver – como visto em Werá (2024) e Acosta (2016) – promove ricos debates sobre percepções, experiências e memórias do luto na sociedade ocidental contemporânea. A discussão segura, ampla e aberta aos grupos vulneráveis (como mulheres mais velhas em situação de solidão) ao mesmo tempo que tocou no desamparo, também provocou um deslocamento crítico (Noguera, 2022) que conecta os rituais de luto e de perda com a cosmovisão moderna hegemônica, marcada pela extrema individualização. Recupera-se a importância, com isso, de se reforçar a ação comunitária e integrativa das pessoas em propostas pedagógicas e/ou artísticas que valorizem a livre expressão e a escuta coletiva.
