O Programa de Pós-Graduação em Teoria e Pesquisa do Comportamento (PPGTPC), que integra o Núcleo de Teoria e Pesquisa do Comportamento(NTPC) da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA), iniciou suas atividades em 1987 com o curso de Mestrado Acadêmico em Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa do Comportamento. O curso de Doutorado passou a ser oferecido a partir do ano 2000.

Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Análise comparativa da ansiedade relatada em surdos e ouvintes(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-09-01) COSTA, Edilane Lourenço da; GOUVEIA JR, Amauri; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1417327467050274The group of deaf people in Brazil is considered significant. Deafness can lead to emotional disorders, among them anxiety. Thus, the aim of this study was to measure anxiety reported among deaf and hearing people, with application of the Visual Analogue Mood Scale (VAMS) standard and adapted to Brazilian sign language. The sample consisted of 62 participants were divided into hearing group (n = 31) and deaf group (n = 31) mean age of 31 (±7.53) and 31 (±7.69) years, respectively, of both sexes, paired for age, sex, income and education level . The application of VAMS were individually and data were analyzed for factors: anxiety, physical sedation, mental sedation, other feelings and the total index scale. The data was preceded by the application of the normality test (Kolmogorov-Smirnov) and equal variance test. For data that obeyed these tests, we used the Student t test to compare the factors of VAMS; between groups, between male and female, within groups and between groups; at different income levels, within the groups and between groups; in different years of study, within groups and between groups. When it was not possible to satisfy the criteria of normality and homogeneity of variance test was used non-parametric Mann-Whitney (U). It was adopted a significance level of p ≤ 0.05. We analyzed the correlation in the variables, income, education level and age with each of the scale factors, in the hearing group and the deaf group. The results showed statistically significant difference between groups in the index of physical sedation, being lower in deaf than in the hearing group. In the analysis between groups, hearing and deaf, distributed by sex, was expressed statistically significant in the factor other feelings, being higher in the deaf, both females and males in relation to the male hearing group. In the variables income and education level were statistically significant differences in the components of VAMS, anxiety, mental sedation and physical sedation, between and within groups. In the correlation analysis, the hearing group, positive correlation was found in the variable income and education level versus physical sedation and positive correlation in the variable age versus anxiety. In the deaf group was a positive correlation in the variable age versus physical sedation. We conclude that the use of scales to assess anxiety is important and valuable for field research, and VAMS adapted to Brazilian sign language was sensitive to evaluate anxiety in deaf, it facilitates the inclusion diagnosis of this specific population, which is sometimes sub diagnosed.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Desempenho de crianças brasileiras nos subtestes de execução da escala de inteligência wechsler (4 – edição)(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-09-05) PAZ, Carlos Eduardo Dias Oliveira da; PEDROSO, Janari da Silva; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4096274367867186; GOUVEIA JR, Amauri; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1417327467050274This study will address the performance assessment on the WISC´s execution subtests in public and particular school children in the city of Belém in the state of Pará. The targer age group for this project will be from 06 years and 01 month until 16 years and 11 months. The chosen tool to perform this project will be the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children – Fourth Edition Brazilian (WISC IV). The assessment will still have as objectives the development of data which will be compared to the North-American samples for the padronization of the WISC IV. It´s worth to highlight that the application of the scale will be complete. The motor performance of the child can be studied through mensuration of the observable behavior, through psychometric tests or assessment by psychological testes that utilize standard scales. In Brazil the utilization of the WISC Scale is wide. The study of learning factors in a city like Belém will be of major importance for the knowledge of performance problems in education in the city, but mainly for helping in the elucidation of the relation between the neuropsychological motor development and culture.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Elementos paramétricos da agressão em Danio Rerio(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-07-07) MANSUR, Bruno de Matos; GOUVEIA JR, Amauri; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1417327467050274Aggressiveness is a set of behaviors that play a important in the adaptation and survival of individuals. The study and development of behavioral tests with Danio rerio has great relevance for several areas science, providing the scientist with a reliable instrument that monitors behaviors on a simpler scale. The objective of this work is to establish an aggression study model in Danio rerio, in which subjects are exposed to isolation, followed by agonistic interaction and to verify that the outcome of a influence the outcome of subsequent matches. To do so, we developed three experiments: I - To determine the effects of the isolation time on the aggressiveness; II - Determine the effect of the opponent's nature on the pattern of aggression and whether there is continuity in the pattern of winning / losing with various opponents; III - Determine whether there is continuity in the Win / Loss pattern with the same opponent. Our experiments show that the best isolation time to elicit the display aggressive of the fish Danio rerio is the one of 6h; the outcome of fights with new opponents naive is not influenced by the outcome of previous struggles; and the result of fights with the same opponent is entirely influenced by the outcome of the previous matches. The fact that the subject recognizes his opponent as the same opponent of the previous fight seems to be a relevant factor in the establishment and maintenance of the hierarchy, since this does not hold when the subject struggles with a new naive subject. The acknowledgment of the opponent appears to be relevant behavior for the establishment and hierarchy in the group, influencing patterns of aggression.
