(2009-03) LEMOS, Rosana Maria Freitas de; SANTOS, Lorena Ribeiro dos; PONTES, Fernando Augusto Ramos
This work investigated, in an exploratory way, the adolescents' perception of their family meetings. It was applied a qualitative methodology called focal group. Eleven adolescents, from 12 to 15 years old, of low-income population in the city of Belém, participated in this research. The place chosen was a public day care. The research procedure was divided in five steps: participants' selection, appreciation of the research ethic committee, collection of parents' permission, application of the focal group technique, and data analysis. The results indicated that the union, the sense of belonging to the family group, the happiness perceived in the environment, the sharing of experiences, the exchange of positive feelings and the absence of conflicts contribute to the adolescents' perceptions of family meetings as a satisfactory experience.

Práticas educativas maternas e empatia em crianças de baixa renda
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-03-30) SANTOS, Lorena Ribeiro dos; SILVA, Simone Souza da Costa e; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9044423720257634
The present study investigated the educational practices and parenting styles prevalent in mothers of low-income children and the relationship of these practices with the empathy of children. The research included the participation of 36 children, 9-11 years old, and their mothers. It was used as instruments the Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Parental Styles Inventory and the Scale of Empathy for Children and Adolescents. The results indicate that scores of children's responses, regarding childrearing practices, were significantly lower than the scores of mothers, with a prevalence of negative practices in both perspectives. The parenting style is the predominant risk and below-average regular. It is found that higher levels of education of the children are related to higher levels of empathy. There is no correlation between maternal educational practices and levels of empathy. This study raised important information regarding childrearing practices, as the prevalence of negative practices in the surveyed mothers. The detection of this deficit raises the need for more comprehensive research on educational practices in low-income mothers, and the development of guidance and intervention programs that help mothers and fathers in the education provided to children.
