O livro trata de temas fundamentais para a psicologia e o autoconhecimento, que têm a ver com aspectos distantes e obscuros da natureza e já foram abordados, porém de forma superficial. Assim, o autor sempre liga o sintoma à manifestação de um arquétipo, procurando aí suas raízes. Vai fundo à matriz; não psicologiza; fala através das imagens, rondando-as, extraindo delas o que é importante para gerar o movimento da psique, sem dar respostas prontas.

Voice Made Visible is an exploration of voice training and performance practice based on the use and application of Multi-Octave Vocal Range techniques. "Multi-Octave" is understood as the arsenal of sounds that exists uniquely within each human voice, beyond the comfortable average octave that we use in everyday life. In Voice Made Visible, Rafael Lopez-Barrantes builds on the voice work created by Alfred Wolfsohn and developed by Roy Hart and his company in France to assist students, artists, and those interested in the performing arts with their vocal practice. He draws from over three decades of multi-cultural performance and teaching, sharing the three fundamental pillars of his system: Fiction, News, and Body Source. This book will help readers unfold their understanding of the voice by strengthening it and inspire them to create new vocal paths for the stage, camera, and voice acting, as well as for their own personal expressive growth. Voice Made Visible is an invaluable resource for students of Acting and Voice courses, as well as working performing artists.

Today''s life dynamics have increased the importance of the agility which we execute our daily activities. However, constant bombardment with information from different sources generates an overload that negatively affects both the senses and the activities. In response to these dynamics, new methods and tools emerge. They focus primarily on how to carry out the activities, in order to achieve the targets.As people are effective in achieving their goals and targets, to that very extent they feel satisfied with themselves, and therefore with their lives. This process gives rise to states where success is increasingly prevalent, regardless of the individual interpretation of it.Grow Up is a set of workshops oriented to personal development with a high impact on performance, and born of the need to increase individual productivity as a way to improve and accelerate the flow and execution of advanced actions in the work environment.6 workshops divided into two cycles of 3 workshops each: Vital Cycle: Action, Improve, FlowIntegral Cycle: Emotional, Socialize, AwarenessVital CycleActionThe flow of our action is delayed and hindered mainly by the incorrect synchronization of actions with other entities (people, teams, organizations). As we learn the basic outline of action coordination conversations and their synchronization, our action will improve. Based on: Rafael Echeverria''s Language Ontology and the basic AIDA scheme of conversations.ImproveFortunately, humans are in a constant process of growth and improvement. What, Why, How and When to Improve are the basic questions to optimize the flow of our action. Based on: 7x7 Continuous Improvement and various tools.FlowFor our action to flow properly it is necessary to have a tool that allows us to coordinate and synchronize our actions with other entities and ourselves. Based on: The Action''s Coordinating Agenda ACA. This workshop focuses on how to use this tool and make the most of our time.From Grow Up - Vital Cycle deals with this book, written from the experiences gained in the workshops and practice of consulting-coaching in different companies and human groups. Practice and intelligence for everyday use with a solid theoretical foundation and frame of reference

Las dinámicas actuales de vida han incrementado la importancia de la agilidad con la que ejecutamos nuestras actividades diarias. Sin embargo, el bombardeo constante con información proveniente de diferentes fuentes, genera una sobrecarga que afecta negativamente tanto a los sentidos, como a las actividades.

This impressive work constitutes an important and timely addition to existing dictionaries of psychoanalytic ideas. It is not intended to replace the reading of Bion’s original texts nor is it a biography of W.R. Bion, the man. A brief history of Bion’s life is offered in the introduction to illuminate the conscious and unconscious factors that may have been an influence on his work, but the aim of this volume is to serve as an insightful and comprehensive guide to the often obscure meanings and terms explored and created by Bion throughout his many years, first as a psychiatrist and later as a psychoanalyst. It is an essential companion to the works of Bion that brings clarity and understanding to his absorbing concepts and is a vital addition to the library of anyone who has read and wondered over the writings of W.R. Bion.

Abstract: The purpose for this grant proposal was to fund a fatherhood group Bienestar (i.e., well-being). The goals of the program are to provide psycho-education to improve attachment, engagement, and involvement of fathers in the lives of their children. When a father begins to take on caregiving duties it has a positive ripple effect on the entire family unit, especially for the children. When children have a strong bond with their fathers, the children improve cognitively, behaviorally, socially, and emotionally. The submission and/or funding of this project were not a requirement for the successful completion of this project.

This study investigated the relationship between digital literacy and academic performance in the context of an online learning high school program aimed at students from underprivileged groups. The study proposed that digital literacy should be understood as a construct of several variables that create a progression from basic--though indispensable--physical conditions of access to technology, to complex skills and attitudes that permit a student to succeed in an online learning situation. Using path analysis as a methodological tool, the study tested a three-stage model that measured the chain of effects of the variables that integrate the digital literacy construct both among them, and on academic performance as the overall dependent variable of the study. The model organized the variables in three stages: conditions of access to technology; general digital skills (that included motivation, knowledge and skills to use digital technology, as well as frequency and diversity of usage practices of technology); and context-specific skills required to successfully use technology in a particular domain (in this particular case, online distance learning). The study found that in the particular online learning context of this investigation, better conditions of access to technology had a mediated and strong positive effect on academic performance by increasing the use of Internet for social and entertainment purposes, which in turn led to a higher use of the learning platform software and to better digital and academic skills. These skills had a positive effect on academic performance through independent learning as a mediating variable. A second finding--that runs in part in an opposite direction--was that better conditions of access increased the use of social networks, which had both a positive effect on independent learning in terms of increasing familiarity with the Internet and computer resources, and a negative effect, perhaps simply because the time one spends with social media may diminish the time one has available for learning.

This document inaugurates a series of annual reports that will periodically monitor the state of the region''s integration in the global economy. These reports will build on an extensive body of quantitative information made available to the public through INTradeBID, a comprehensive information system on trade and integration developed by the Integration and Trade Sector of the Inter-American Development Bank.

In this paper we study the mobile Internet services in Spain. We are especially interested in overall consumer satisfaction as well as with some of its attributes. We use micro data from a survey conducted by the Spanish Center for Sociological Research (CIS 2009). We have elaborated a model to analyze to what extent different service providers generate different levels of satisfaction of individuals when we control for other relevant variables. In this regard, we found statistically significant differences in favor of Vodafone for both overall satisfaction and for satisfaction with any other of its attributes. However, there are no significant differences between the other two considered companies (Movistar and Orange). The same conclusions were obtained when the model was estimated by OLS as when using ordered probability models (probit or logit). Our results also suggest that the communication quality of the service and its price are the main attributes that affect the overall satisfaction of the consumer.

There is growing evidence that low-quality customer service prevails in the mobile telecommunications industry. In this paper we provide theoretical support to this empirical observation by using simple game theoretical models where inefficient low-quality service levels are part of an equilibrium strategy for the firms. We also find that the inefficiency is due to a demand-side market failure generated by incomplete information, and that it does not necessarily vanish with competition or with repeated interaction. This is particularly important in terms of policy implications because it suggests that the inefficiency should be solved through regulation via consumer protection.
