Migration is a process of ecological transition that drastically interferes with human development involving change of environment, social relations, perceptions about oneself and time. In addition, it is a process influenced by various social, economic, or political aspects that immerse the immigrant in a potentially risky yet challenging environment that mobilizes him for resources to overcome adversity. In this sense, this dissertation had as main objective to identify which aspects related to the migratory context are perceived as stress-generating elements and resilience promoters, relevant in the process of adaptation of Brazilian immigrants living in Germany. Two exploratory, descriptive, quantitative and qualitative studies were carried out. The first one focused on describing the perception of stress and resilience of Brazilian immigrants who chose to live in Germany. The study was attended by one hundred and eleven Brazilians living in Germany, who were assigned PSS14 to assess stress and CD-RISC for resilience. The results indicated negative correlations between stress and resilience. The second study aimed to describe the perception of Brazilian immigrants in Germany about their adaptation process. One hundred and thirteen people participated through an online interview through a virtual platform. The results indicated that the immigrants encountered several challenges, highlighting the use of language, culture, climate and interaction with the Germans. These studies can contribute to increase knowledge about Brazilian immigrants, their relationships and how they perceive the contexts in which they live far from their country of origin.

There are few studies dealing with the presence of stress and resilience on undergraduate students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders in higher education, which indicates the need for these two themes to be more studied and better understood in the university environment. The present study aimed to describe the sociodemographic and academic characteristics of 50 university students who participated in the study and correlate them with levels of stress and resilience. The instruments used were a semi-structured questionnaire and two scales: Perceived Stress Scale and Resilience Scale. The results were analyzed through descriptive statistics and the exploratory statistical technique. The results showed that students with high levels of stress have moderate and low levels of resilience. From this result, it was concluded the need to develop programs that aim at the maintenance of effective coping strategies in adverse situations within the academic context. It is expected that this study may contribute to the construction of institutional policies that favor the inclusion in fact of students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders at the Federal University of Pará and other higher education institutions.

This PhD thesis aimed to investigate the parental stress levels, their relationship to the degree of sons of motor impairment with cerebral palsy, a possible association between stress and resilience of parents of children with cerebral palsy and identify protective factors and risk in the words of parents little stressed. This research is organized in five studies, being constituted by theoretical sessions (Studies 1 and 2) and empirically (study 3, 4 and 5). The first theoretical study describes the importance of the family for the development of children with cerebral palsy according to bioecological theory of human development Bronfenbrenner. For this presents a discussion on family, typical and atypical development, families of children with disabilities and family implications arising from the birth of a child with cerebral palsy. The second theoretical study it is a systematic review consisting of 26 articles published between 2003 and 2015. The findings of this review showed the Parental Stress Index reduced version (PSI S / F) and the Classification System Function Gross Motor (GMFCS) as the main psychometric instruments used for the evaluation of parental stress and motor impairment in children with cerebral palsy, respectively. Moreover also it showed that the aspects relating to fathers and mothers and children with CP, among others, greatly influence the manifestation of stress in the studied parental population. With regard to studies of the empirical section, we emphasize that all were conducted with parents of children diagnosed with cerebral palsy (ICD- 10-G80) met in a federal reference public hospital in the state of Pará, and 92 participated in the first and according to studies that session (studies 3 and 4). The latest study (Study 5) was performed with 101 parents at first, followed by the final sample consisted of seven participants. Regarding the instruments used in these empirical studies, it is emphasized that in all were used Inventory demographic Partner (ISD), the GMFCS and PSI / SF, and Connor's Resilience Scale and Davidson (CD-RISC) only used in 4 study and focus group technique only in the study 5. Finally as regards the analysis of the data was performed using the statistical package SPSS version 20.0 with a significance level of p <0.005 for quantitative analysis and NVivo software to 10 qualitative analysis. The findings of empirical studies have shown that found approximate age range of children with cerebral palsy in both stressed parent groups and little stressed, but highlighted the presence of younger parents in the stressed parent group and prolonged union of parents when children with cerebral palsy was born in the little group of stressed parents (study 3). Moreover, it was observed in the study 4 that the following items ISD parents union time, age of child, age of parents, school adjustment, health problems, government benefit, child attends school and town you live interacted with RISC CD factors were: courage / determination, adaptability, social support and control, adversity, tolerance, self-efficacy, social support and trust and full resilience, explained the resilience in groups of stress obtained. Furthermore, this research showed that older fathers are more likely to have high resilience, the same occurring with parents of younger children. Finally, there was a higher frequency of protective accounts, mainly related to the person, and others on the context and time, which may explain the low level of stress found (study 5). Finally it is hoped that this research will encourage the development of public policies of assistance to families of children with chronic conditions, such as cerebral palsy, to ensure the creation and implementation of assistance programs aimed at detection and treatment when necessary, the symptoms of parental emotional stress.

The Parenting Stress have been exposed in the literature as a stress developed by the caregivers necessities of parenting. Many reasons may influence the ocurring of this kind of stress, like poverty and its multiples dimensions. This research had like main objective to identify the perceptions of parenting stress in poors parentes and caregivers of childrens and adolescents of Belem (PA). It was investigated a sample of 300 caregivers of CADÚNICO, interviwed on ten CRAS of the city. The research had a mixed character. In the quantitative aspect, a sociodemographic characterization tool (ISD), the Multidimensional Poverty Index (IPF) and the Parenting Stress Index (PSI) were applied. In the qualitative context, two focal groups with participants drawn from the total sample were divided into poorer participants (higher IPF) and less poor participants (lower IPF). The realization of the focal points was guided by a script constituted with themes related to the exercise of parenting. In the quantitative results it was observed that in the sample 96% were women, 50% had completed high school education and 64% had high parenting stress. The median IPF score reached (14) by the sample was median in relation to the national result of the instrument used. All respondents have participated or are still beneficiaries of any government income transfer program. In the focus groups, reports of parental stress were identified, but no qualitative differences were observed in the reports between the two specified groups. We suggest other studies with more precise statistical analyzes or involving samples of people without CADÚNICO profile.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2017-04-05) PEREIRA, Rosamaria Reo; FACIOLA, Rosana Assef; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1881850972010705; SILVA, Simone Souza da Costa e; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9044423720257634
This study aims to describe the bioecology of students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders at Federal University of Pará, that is, their bio demographic characteristics, their perceptions about themselves and about the academic context. This study is organized into four studies, consisting of a theoretical session (study 1) and an empirical session (studies 2, 3 and 4). The first study aimed to establish an overview of studies that investigated the inclusion of student with disabilities in higher education in three databases, in English language articles from 2003 to 2015. The research resulted in 30 studies. The data was organized into six categories: university context, support, characteristics of the student with disabilities, academic difficulties, methodology and transition. The problems related to the physical and social context, support services, personal characteristics of the student with disabilities, academic difficulties, methodologies and the transition to higher education were highlighted. Despite the efforts of some institutions; quite a lot still needs to be done to offer these students an education of quality. The objective of the second study was to identify the sociodemographic and academic characteristics of students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders enrolled at Federal University of Pará, as well as to identify their perceptions regarding their general difficulties and their suggestions for improving accessibility within the Campus of Guamá. For data analysis, 50 students answered the sociodemographic questionnaire and were analyzed through descriptive statistics. The offering of quotas, the academic support available at the time of Enem test and the non-avoidance and repetition of students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders of the undergraduate courses revealed the facilitating actions that contributed to permanence of these students in the university. On the other hand, Federal University of Pará needs to invest more in research, monitoring and activities of extension, inform the students about the financial programs aimed at meeting the physical and material needs of this public and to improve the conditions of architectural accessibility within the campus, since the lack of it interferes in the academic life of these students. Results showed that this knowledge can favor the planning of institutional policies that favors the inclusion and the well-being of these students at Federal University of Pará and at other higher education institutions. The third study aimed to describe the sociodemographic and academic characteristics of 50 students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders at the Federal University of Pará and to correlate them with levels of stress and resilience. The instruments used were a semi-structured questionnaire and two scales: Perceived Stress Scale and Resilience Scale. The results were analyzed through descriptive statistics and the exploratory statistical technique. The results showed that students with high levels of stress have moderate and low levels of resilience. It was concluded the need to develop programs aimed at maintaining effective coping strategies in facing adverse situations within the academic context. The aim of the fourth study was to describe the perception of stress on students with disabilities and with specific functional disorders at the Federal University of Pará. The participants were 50 undergraduate students. This sample was obtained from a population of 192 students enrolled at the university. According to the data obtained from the quantitative instruments, 29 students with high stress level and 21 with low stress level were selected. Of the 29 students with stress, 11 accepted17 to participate in the qualitative phase and from the remaining 21, eight agreed to participate in the study, that is, 19 students participated in the qualitative phase. The instruments used were: semistructured socio-demographic questionnaire, Perceived Stress Scale and interview script with open questions. The results were analyzed through the descriptive analysis statistic to find measures of central tendency, as well as the technique of content analysis to evaluate the qualitative data. The results showed that students who had high levels of stress were less positive and determined, presented fewer resources and suffered more from prejudice. They perceived the contexts with less serenity and evaluated their past life with more reports of emotional conflicts. In relation to the proximal processes, they were more stressed in the involvement of academic activities, being able to establish less relationships and friendships in the university context. It was concluded that students who presented high levels of stress are more likely to present emotional and physical problems than the students with less stress, deserving attention from the administrative staff of Federal University of Pará. Finally, it is expected that the present study will encourage the development of policies of affirmative actions to support students, in order to eliminate architectural, pedagogical, attitudinal and communicational barriers and to invest in the training of the faculty and the administrative agents in order to ensure permanence and promote the equalization of opportunities for students with disabilities at Federal University of Pará.
