O Estado de São Paulo, 28 de novembro de 1997 A crise das bolsas e as medidas de contenção tomadas pelo governo parece terem trazido à tona a antiga tendência maníaco-depressiva da opinião pública brasileira; um dia está tudo uma maravilha, o futuro é brilhante, somos campeões do mundo; no dia seguinte, é tudo um desastre, aumenta a miséria, os jogadores são pernas de pau, este país não tem jeito.

Prepared for the Conference on "Education and Social Development in the Americas: the case of Argentina", Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, The Latin American Program, Washington, DC, June 20, 2005. Education should not be reduced to the simple training and preparation of people for the job market. I doubt, however, that there is any education system that adheres fully to a market-oriented ideology, although some institutions obviously do. The main issue is not the...

Publicado em Folha de São Paulo, 26 de dezembro de 2001. Os dados sugerem que estamos chegando a um ponto de inflexão, aonde as tendências mais ou menos automáticas de melhoria começam a encontrar seus limites. Não faz sentido tentar tapar o sol com a peneira, e negar os progressos dos últimos anos; e nem achar que tudo está bem no melhor dos mundos. Daqui para a frente, teremos que enfrentar novos problemas, típicos de uma população urbana, envelhecida e deseducada, com recursos...

Publicado na Folha de São Paulo, 6 de outubro de 2014. Os economistas falam da "armadilha da renda média", de países que, como o Brasil, conseguiram chegar aos US$ 10 mil ou US$ 12 mil por habitante por ano, mas não conseguem chegar perto dos US$ 30 mil a US$ 50 mil, como os países desenvolvidos. Um outro nome seria a armadilha da mediocridade.

This paper outlines research designed to establish dietary correlates of malnutrition, and questions the common assumption that high protein foods should be used as dietary supplements in humans. Because thorough investigation of dietary needs in children is ethically unfeasible, squirrel monkeys were used in the research to study the biological and mental effects and the behavioral correlates of deficiency disease. Infant squirrel monkeys were taken from their mothers after birth and fed a...

Two methodologies, quantitative and qualitative, were used in this study designed to evaluate the Social Learning Curriculum and compare its effects with Instrumental Enrichment. The quantitative portion included examination of pretest-posttest performance of 143 mildly handicapped children on six measures and a social knowledge assessment developed by researchers. A quasi-experimental design was employed for the quantitative section in which data were analyzed with the analysis of covariance....

The primary aim of this discussion is to demonstrate that social pretend play is a process of negotiation involving children's attempts to reach minimal agreements in order to maintain the play activity. The second purpose is to show that the quality of negotiation changes in content and form as social pretense evolves and that this process is reflected in different phases of play. To these ends, the paper provides a theoretical framework for the discussion of shared and personal foundations of...

To talk about human development requires some point of view which will allow the visualization of the various parts and processes within the context of an organized unit. Social policies will be formulated differently, depending on the assumptions one holds about people. The concept of an open system is used in this presentation to illustrate that point of view. Briefly illustrated are some implications for social policy when one views the person as a complex open system existing through...

Described is an independent toy play curriculum for young handicapped children. It is explained that toys were analyzed according to functions in three classifications: functional toy skills (toys designed to elicit simple motor actions of short duration); physical toy skills (toys designed to elicit gross motor action); and constructive toy skills (toys designed to elicit the child's imagination and organization). The curriculum includes information on pretesting and instruction, as well as...

Two studies were conducted with normal preschool and retarded children to examine D. El'konin's theory that condensation of play activity occurs when social human relationships are reproduced in role play. Two types of condensation were hypothesized: reduction of repetition in a manipulation or in a small unit of sequential manipulations, and omission of unnecessary kinds of manipulations. Both studies verified El'konin's theory in normal children as well as in a mentally retarded child....

The responses taught were unique to each set of toys. Results indicated that training to generalize wihin two sets of toys was associated...

The hormone measures were serum levels of gonadotropins, sex steroids, adrenal androgens, and corticosteroid. An additional measure was testosterone-estradiol binding globulin. The...

This research study investigated the hypothesis that noncontingent social stimulation can elicit infant vocal sounds. The investigation involved an examination of both the course of social elicitation and the nature of the social releasing stimulus. Three experimental conditions were designed to measure: (1) the changes in vocalization rate during 2-minute periods following stimulation; (2) the time between the onset of one infant response and the onset of the next; and (3) the influence of eye...

The discussion is limited to Stern's first stage of development, The Emergent Self. Implications of infant...

In this study, 33 hearing and 29 deaf preschoolers were observed during outdoor free play at their respective schools over a seven-month period in an effort to determine if their friendships were unstable and transitory. Four issues were addressed: (1) the possibility that maintained and non-maintained friends serve different functions (this was examined by describing qualitative and quantitative differences in the play of these two types of friends); (2) the effects of the age, sex, and ethnic...

Some observations on the nature of altruistic behavior and the consequences of these observations for a theoretical and experimental psychology of altruism are discussed. Altruistic behaviors are very pervasive since they satisfy a wide array of egotistical motivations in addition to having an autonomy of their own. Because of their ability to meet numerous human needs altruistic behaviors are difficult to interpret but it is suggested that normative altruism, which arises from maximizations of...

This paper reports an observational study of the effects of handling on the social behavior of squirrel monkeys who received a protein deficient diet. After birth, experimental animals received a low-protein diet for a 6-week period. A subgroup of these animals were handled between 3 and 12 weeks of age. All of the animals interacted (in four animal social groups), five times a week beginning at 4 weeks of age. Animals were observed interacting twice-weekly. Results indicate that protein...

With or without the support of research, clinicians must make judgments concerning relations between different areas of psychological functioning. Recently, studies have been made of possible relations between different areas of mental activity, including logical and emotional conception and social, emotional, and perceptual functioning.
