This paper discusses the assumption that affect is a key determinant in recognizing contemporary family relations in law, a discursive field that officially legitimizes the family. To do so, a theoretical research explores the notion of affect in everyday language, which equates it to emotions, feelings, and passions, comparing it with the definitions of psychopathological semiology, which also fails to conceptualize the aforementioned notion. Psychoanalysis is used, therefore, to broaden the discussion, understanding affect as an effect produced by relations with the Other in the Self and in the body through the signifier. This allows us to include desire and demand in the reading of family relations, and thus to consider affect beyond its imaginary dimension and contribute to the work of psychologists who deal with family law.

The work of Ferreira Marques within the intelligence domain in psychology is explored, regarding its methodological and theoretical contributions. In the methodological context, the paper addresses his seminal work, over the 1960s, of adapting and standardizing for the Portuguese population an important intelligence scale for children (WISC), a research that culminated in the publication, in 1969, of his doctoral dissertation and, in 1970, of the WISC Portuguese Manual. At a conceptual level, his theoretical approach to the nature of the general factor of intelligence is emphasized (Marques, 1971). In this work he identified, with a remarkable sense of anticipation, some contours of the subsequent evolution in the definition and conceptualization of intelligence as a construct. Beyond all of his works and scientific contributions, however, the importance of his scientific and human impact on the training of several generations of psychologists is stressed.

Depathologisation of gender diversity in the ICD-11 marks a shift in psychological services for transgender and gender nonconforming people. Even though the stipulated changes are only practically applicable ever since early 2022, a general move towards affirmative psychotherapeutic and counselling practice has been noticed ever since 2018. The present paper covers three main models of mental health care for gender minorities, namely the conversion therapy model, the transsexual gatekeeping model, and the affirmative model, in order to view them under a novel lens. Drawing on Science, Technology and Society Studies, the universalist presumptions and rigid gender roles of the traditional models are brought under scrutiny. Moreover, the itinerary reveals the need for situated narratives that encourage self-determination and renovate the therapeutic relationship as a means of self-exploration instead of an institutional control mechanism. Concluding, it is remarked that intersectional knowledge is crucial in compensating for micro-aggressive practices and dynamics historically promoted by psychologists and other mental health providers.

The aim of this paper is to characterize entrepreneurial action through the different approaches to the study of entrepreneurship, analyzing them in light of the perspectives of prominent economists and behaviorists in this field. The concepts of synthesis studies in the field were investigated, based on the vision of Filion (1999b), which considers two main approaches: that of the pioneers in the field, the economists, who associate entrepreneur with innovation; and that of the psychologists, who emphasize behavioral aspects of this social agent. The points of view of various authors are included, to form the basis of the construction of the concept of entrepreneurial action. In conclusion, it is evidenced that both economists and behaviorists place entrepreneurial action at the heart of entrepreneurship. Taking up various concepts, it becomes clear that the alternative approach to the phenomenon involves shifting the focus from subject to action. This was demonstrated by the recovery of different approaches from relevant authors of the past, and modern-day authors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aimed at analyzing relationships between interests, measured by "Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional" and personality traits, assessed by "Bateria Fatorial de Personalidade". 298 students from the three grades of high school took part on this study, 56,7% were women and mean age was 16,6. In general, there were correlations of small magnitude, and many of them were non-significant. Neuroticism was the factor that was least related to interests. Extroversion and Openness allowed wider interpretations, once they were significantly related to many interest areas. Agreeableness and Conscientiousness related to more specific interest areas. Data are discusses in terms of possible interpretations guided by the conjoint analysis of these constructs, especially considering psychologists who work with adolescents in Vocational Guidance.

The purpose of this paper is to present the main theoretical and empirical foundations for the promotion of psychological development with older people. The orientation of developmental psychology to older people has arisen because of interest among psychologists in using developmental approaches of human behavior and development for understanding the plasticity of the aging mind and development, and the importance of relations between individuals and ecological settings as a framework to understand diversity in the course of human development in the second half of life. A developmental psychology perspective applied to older people development has arisen as well through the implementation of interventions designed and delivered both in individualized and community-based ways. The most important conceptual foundations and empirical work being done to define bases and features of developmental psychology applied to older people will be discussed as well as the implications of it for applications of developmental science aimed at improving human development of older people through the provision of programs and policies predicated on the use of a developmental psychology perspective for understanding and enhancing the lives of older people.

Legal Psychology is a specialty area arising from psychology as a science, in which traditional areas of education and action such Educational, Organizational and Clinic Psychology are compared. The very feature of this specialty is its interface with Law, the legal world, which produces epistemological and conceptual encounters and disagreements that intertwine the work of a legal psychologist. The sectors of Legal Psychology are many, since the most traditional ones such as those taking place in the Courts of Law and Prison up to innovating actions such as Mediation, Psychic Autopsy (retrospective evaluation by means of third-party information). This paper focuses on the Brazilian Legal Psychology, with the purpose of presenting and discussing the definition of Legal Psychology, its relationship with the Law, by highlighting its sectors of action according to the works presented in the 3rd Iberian American Congress of Legal Psychology held in 1999 in Brazil and it also intends to address the challenges faced today by the Brazilian Legal Psychology.
