Título: Intervenções cognitivo - comportamentais autoguiadas na Síndrome do intestino irritável: evidências, mecanismos psicológicos e desenvolvimento de recursos psicoterapêuticos Autor(es): Silva, Luanna dos Santos Abstract: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a highly prevalent disorder of the gut–brain axis, characterized by recurrent gastrointestinal symptoms and a substantial impact on quality of life, social and occupational functioning, and mental health among affected individuals. The biopsychosocial model of IBS highlights the complex interaction between biological, psychological, and social factors, requiring integrated therapeutic approaches. Among available treatments, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is widely recognized as an effective intervention with strong empirical support, capable of reducing gastrointestinal symptoms and promoting better psychological adjustment. However, limited access to specialized treatments underscores the need to develop more accessible alternatives, such as self-guided interventions. The implementation and evaluation of this treatment format, particularly when structured to address IBS-specific features such as gastrointestinal symptom-specific anxiety (GSA), represent promising strategies to reduce the negative impact of this disorder on patients’ lives and to expand access to evidence-based psychological interventions. Accordingly, this doctoral thesis aimed to: 1) identify, in the scientific literature, evidence on the effectiveness of selfguided or minimal-contact treatments for IBS; 2) investigate which psychological variables have been identified in the literature as mediators of the effect of CBT on the improvement of gastrointestinal symptoms in adults diagnosed with IBS; 3) adapt the Visceral Sensitivity Index for Brazilian Portuguese and gather validity evidence for this instrument assessing GSA; 4) develop and evaluate two booklets addressing GSA for patients with IBS, one focused on cognitive and emotional strategies and the other on exposure-based strategies; and 5) adapt and evaluate, in an international context, an English-language version of the booklet focused on cognitive and emotional strategies. Taken together, the findings of this dissertation offer theoretical, methodological, and clinical contributions. From a theoretical perspective, they strengthen our understanding of AGE as a central construct in SII and as a mechanism of change in CBT-based interventions. From a methodological perspective, the adaptation and validation of the VSI for Brazilian Portuguese expands the possibilities for the systematic assessment of AGE in the national context. At the applied level, the development and evaluation of evidence-based booklets contribute to expanding the repertoire of low-intensity psychotherapeutic interventions, with the potential for both national and international reach.

Título: Uma análise da série animada “Ridley Jones”: contracondutas de gênero e sexualidade, afetos, cooperação e ancestralidade Autor(es): Fraga, Thaynan Oliveira Abstract: Cartoons have a strong influence on the formation of subjectivities, especially because they are associated with the early stages of child development. They act as cultural pedagogies, conveying representations that suggest behaviors, affections, and social identities. This research, anchored in Cultural Studies and post-structuralist theory, aims to analyze how gender and sexuality counter-conducts are produced by the animated series “Ridley Jones: The Museum Guardian,” from Netflix. The methodology consisted of analyzing episodes from the series' five seasons, organized into three main themes: gender and sexuality subjectivities, interpersonal relationships, and the power of cooperation and affective performances. Based on discursive analysis, we observe how the series challenges gender and sexuality norms by presenting diverse characters and plural affective experiences. The results indicate that the animation proposes alternative forms of existence and coexistence, based on care, listening, and collectivity. The main character and her companions experience adventures that challenge the logic of individualism and value practices that protect memory, history, and affective bonds. The series suggests counter-conduct by building resistance to social norms and neoliberal rationality. Despite its innovative proposal, the series was canceled after criticism from conservative sectors that accused it of promoting “gender ideology.” This fact highlights the urgency of studies that discuss the ways in which children's media educate, question, and resist standardization. The series invites us to imagine other childhoods, where affection, diversity, and collaboration are central elements. More than just preserving artifacts, we need to protect what pulsates within us: our stories, our affections, and our plural ways of existing.

Título: Quiet quitting: mudanças no contexto laboral Autor(es): Quintela, Luiz Henrique Pimenta Abstract: The phenomenon known as Quiet Quitting, widely disseminated since 2020, has been interpreted as an expression of contemporary transformations in labor relations. However, doubt remains about its true novelty: is it an emerging behavior or merely a conceptual redefinition of practices historically present in the workplace context? Thus, this study aims to dispel the conceptual confusion surrounding the topic, investigating whether it is a novel behavior in the world of work or a new name for already existing practices. Through a theoretical-bibliographical research, more precisely a scoping review following the PRISMA-ScR protocol, the main concepts, authors, and gaps in research on the topic were mapped, in addition to identifying psychological factors involved with the phenomenon such as (dis)engagement, work-life balance, and generational factors, which subsequently served as descriptors. The findings indicate that QQ is not an entirely new phenomenon, but represents a contemporary reconfiguration of historical practices of labor resistance, intensified by the post-pandemic context and the emergence of new generational values regarding the role of work in life. In this sense, in addition to contributing to the academic understanding of the topic, this research engages with global initiatives, such as the UN's 2030 Agenda, by emphasizing the importance of promoting fair and sustainable working conditions, assisting companies and workers in formulating strategies for a healthier and more productive work environment.

Título: As representações do futebol de mulheres: entre os jornais sergipanos e o Museu do Futebol (SP) Autor(es): Chaves, Julia Beatriz Silva Vicente Abstract: This study investigates the relationship between the construction and perpetuation of social imaginaries, memory, and identity in women’s football across two stages of analysis. First, it examines the narratives produced by newspapers from the state of Sergipe, understood as forms of communication; subsequently, it analyzes the processes of memory selection and re-elaboration carried out by the Football Museum, considering it as a space of social mediation and reconfiguration. These two objects were selected due to their communicational potential, understood as their capacity to construct and rewrite narratives surrounding sport. The aim is to explore the dialogues and intersections between the history of women’s football at local and national levels. To this end, the study analyzes the newspapers Gazeta de Sergipe, Jornal da Cidade, and Jornal de Sergipe between 1983 and 2000—a period spanning from the regulation of women’s football in Brazil to the historic participation of Brazilian women footballers in the Sydney Olympic Games. This analysis seeks to both quantify and qualify representations of women’s football, identifying social patterns and the construction of popular imaginaries regarding the relationship between gender and football. In this sense, the intersection between newspapers and the Football Museum reveals how the challenges and achievements of women in football are constructed and perpetuated within social memory. Finally, the analysis demonstrates that journalistic narratives and the exhibition strategies adopted by the Football Museum not only reflect the trajectory of women’s football but also expose the dynamics of women’s inclusion and exclusion within sporting social spaces, enabling a critical perspective on the intersectionalities that shape this history. The research shows that journalistic narratives recurrently engage in processes of sexualization and objectification of women, reinforcing patriarchal, racist, and lesbophobic ideals that contribute to women’s exclusion from football. At the same time, the Football Museum—understood as a vector of representation in the twenty-first century—appropriates these historical narratives, resignifying them within both physical and virtual exhibition contexts.
