Colonial War: when the years rekindle the suffering - a pilot study
(MDPI, 2021-04-28) Becker, Joana Proença; Quartilho, Manuel João
For more than 150 years, traumatic stress has been a recurrent topic of medical and psychological studies, in which war-related experiences remain to be addressed. Although veterans have been considered a high-risk group for the development of stress-related diseases, the impact of aging on the trauma process is an unexplored field. This study aimed to analyze the aging-related factors that may influence the emergence of traumatic stress symptoms in war veterans. The clinical data of 29 Colonial War Portuguese veterans were verified in order to identify the main diagnoses, and the frequency of health service use. Through thematic analysis of the transcripts of 10 interviews with veterans diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), the main symptoms and factors that led them to mental health services were identified. In addition, a literature review on mental health and psychological trauma was conducted to provide an overview of the knowledge on this topic. Aging seems to be an opportunity to face conflicts which have been kept hidden throughout veterans’ lives. Social stigmatization and the non-recognition of traumatic stress as a disease influenced the Portuguese veterans’ silence, which could be broken with the aging process. Retirement, physical illness, death of close friends or family members, and loss of autonomy may contribute to the onset of trauma-related symptoms.

Música e Personalidade: a relação entre consumo musical, comportamento e emoções
(ISMT, 2015-12-31) Pereira, Sónia Santos
Este é um estudo acerca da relação entre personalidade e o consumo de géneros musicais, seguindo a tipologia de preferências musicais criada por P. J. Rentfrow and S. D. Gosling. A amostra é constituída por 320 indivíduos, entre os 18 e os 38 anos, usando questionários e escalas adaptadas ou propriamente construídas para esta investigação. A música energética é a mais consumida pelos mais jovens, a música rebelde permeia todos os grupos de idade, e os mais velhos, na faixa dos trinta anos, demonstram igualmente marcada preferência pelo consumo de música reflexiva. As escolhas musicais parecem não ser influenciadas, porém, pelo género e estado civil. Os respondentes menos escolarizados tendem a preferir música energética, enquanto aqueles com maiores qualificações escolares preferem os estilos reflexivo e rebelde.

O Impacto Estético na Perspetiva da Psicologia da Arte: as pinturas de O Crime do Padre Amaro de Paula Rego na visão de adolescentes
(ISMT, 2015-12-31) Silva, Alexandra Santos; Fróis, João Pedro; Figueira, Maria Luísa
O impacto estético é a experiência que ocorre no encontro entre o receptor e a obra de arte. O que está em causa aqui é avaliar as diferenças acerca do impacto estético de seis pinturas de Paula Rego em diferentes grupos de estudantes adolescentes, em termos de identidade sociocultural e identidade de género. A investigação é baseada numa entrevista estruturada e na análise de conteúdo, de acordo com a frequência de clusters. A conclusão é que diferentes experiências socioculturais influenciam marcadamente a experiência estética, mas o mesmo não é necessariamente o caso com respeito ao género.

Multidisciplinary Perspectives on Artificial Intelligence and the Law
(Springer, 2023-12) Antunes, Henrique Sousa; Freitas, Pedro Miguel; Oliveira, Arlindo; Pereira, Clara Martins; Sequeira, Elsa Vaz de; Xavier, Luís Barreto; Ribeiro, Beatriz A.; Coelho, Helder; Pereira, Ana Elisabete Farinha Ferreira e Dias; Branquinho, João
This book is the outcome of a collaborative effort. Five years ago, research group “Law and Artificial Intelligence”—hosted by the Católica Research Centre for the Future of Law (Universidade Católica Portuguesa—UCP, Lisbon, Portugal) and led by Henrique Sousa Antunes (UCP) and Arlindo Oliveira (Instituto Superior Técnico—IST)—started an ongoing scientific dialogue among scholars with diverse backgrounds and interests: law, computer science, neurosciences, and ethics. Since then, AI has further increased its role as the main driver of the contemporary digital transformation. As it continues to grow into an omnipresent set of general-purpose technologies, new questions need addressing. Among them, there are many outstanding technical, societal, ethical, legal, and regulatory questions, but rather than trying to focus on just one set of queries, this book is an attempt at understanding a broad number of problems from a distinctive multidisciplinary lens. Some of the contributors to this book are members of the “Law and Artificial Intelligence” research group. Others are prominent researchers who have been invited to share their unique views on these topics. Others still have been selected to contribute to this project through a peer-review process, following a dedicated Call for Articles. Section I addresses “Scientific, technological and societal achievements in Artificial Intelligence,” but rather than gathering articles from a strictly engineering point of view, it approaches technical questions that also touch upon an array of societal, legal, and ethical issues. In Section II, “Ethical and legal challenges in Artificial Intelligence,” the authors highlight the multiple risks emerging from the deployment of AI and attempt to search for answers at the intersection of law and ethics. Finally, Section III, “The law, governance and regulation of Artificial Intelligence,” discusses solutions for regulating AI, with a particular focus on recent European Union initiatives in this field.

Between Portugal and Brazil: dignified death, legislative evolution and future perspectives
(International Journal of Innovative Research in Multidisciplinary Education, 2024-11) Pereira, Ana Elisabete Farinha Ferreira e Dias; Braga, Thiago Melim
The purpose of this work is to verify how dignified death can be analyzed in the constitutional reality of Portugal and Brazil, aiming to delimit - contextually - each of the realities. In short, the question, duly problematized, is how the relationship between the two countries can contribute to the debate and development of the themes of euthanasia, orthothanasia and assisted suicide, as well as the decriminalization of the conduct typified in the legislation. To achieve this, the topic is introduced by analyzing dignified life and autonomy, seeking to understand whether for dignity in and of the "individual", we speak of technical-mechanical life or dignified life. It also aims to conceptualize what is meant by dignified death and its practices. The study also aims to verify the Portuguese legislative reality and, on the other hand, how criminalization of criminal types related to life and death occurs in Brazilian society, using legislative (in)evolution, identifying one of the main problems, which is the sacralization of life in contrast to secularity. It is therefore a descriptive and exploratory study of a bibliographical and documentary nature. The research provides and clarifies, through the bibliographic data obtained, the reality of the taboo when dealing with the subject of death, especially death considered and contextualized as dignified. It concludes that there is no absolute right, not even one dedicated to life, and that it is necessary to confront the issues related to dignified death - euthanasia, assisted suicide and orthothanasia - and that each of these issues should be analyzed based on a careful verification of elements or requirements, as well as through a dichotomy between different realities, as is the case in Portugal and Brazil, in order to promote debate and overcome issues such as the slippery slope.
