During the gestational period, parents project images, dreams and expectations about the child to be born. When a premature birth occurs and/or with other complications, the idealized figure of the "perfect newborn” (NB) is abandoned and parents need to face a new reality. Risky newborns commonly require hospitalization in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), which is extremely distressing and stressful for the mother, father and baby triad, because the rituals that should take place at the beginning of the child's life are broken. It is noteworthy that, from the hospitalization of a baby in NICU, the parents experience feelings of frustration, guilt, fear, in the face of the unknown and uncertainties regarding the child’s recovery. Therefore, the driving question of this study was: what are the factors associated with parental stress in a neonatal intensive care unit? This is a cross-sectional research, with a quantitative approach, the population consisted of fathers and mothers of newborns hospitalized in neonatal intensive care unit. The data collection occurred in two philanthropic hospitals in the south of the country. The questionnaires used were Parental Stress Scale: Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (PSS: NICU) and Perception of Family Centered Care – Parents Brazilian version (PCCF-P Brazilian version), both validated and translated into Brazilian Portuguese, in addition to an instrument for participants’ characterization, obstetric and newborns’ data, produced by the authors. The qualitative variables were presented by absolute and relative frequencies. Simple crosses of qualitative variables were performed and, to verify the association between them, the "Odds Ratio" (OR) measure and its confidence interval were used. The analysis was performed in statistica software 9.1, and the findings with p value ≤ 0.05 being considered as significant. The quantitative variables were presented by mean (± standard deviation), median, minimum and maximum. A total of 129 volunteers participated and it was found that 79.8% of them had parental stress. Through the description of the PSS: NICU instrument, a lower mean stress was observed in the domain "Sounds and images", followed by "Appearance and behavior of the baby" and, with higher score, the category "Changes in the role of father/mother". There was a significant association between ‘participants’ gender’ and ‘newborns’ clinical complications during the hospitalization period in the NICU with parental stress. A statistically significant difference was observed between the "stress” and "stress-free" groups in the variable "length of hospital stay until the moment of data collection", in the domains "respect", "collaboration" and in the total sum of the PCCF-P scale. Therefore, it is concluded that there is relevance in deepening the knowledge about the factors associated with parental stress in a neonatal intensive care unit, in order to implement strategies with the objective of minimizing these aggravating factors and improving the emotional health of parents, the relationship of parents with the medical team and with their baby and, as a result, improving the child’s development.

The Faculty of Political and Economic Sciences (FCPE), the second higher education unit in the Municipality of Rio Grande, was created in 1955 by the municipal government with the aim of providing higher education in Political and Economic Sciences and housed the Economic Sciences Course and the Commercial Technical College Fernando Freire. The Faculty operated effectively from 1959 to 1972, and in 1969 it was incorporated into the Federal University of Rio Grande (FURG), due to the change in the country's educational system caused by the University Reform. During the development of its activities and functions, the FCPE was responsible for the production and formation of an important documentary collection, which constitutes its Documentary Fund, guarded by the General Archive Coordination. In this work, the photographs that are considered evidence of facts and sources of information of the administrative and teaching activities carried out by the Faculty stand out. Thus, the present research has as general objective to promote the archival description in the photographic collection of the Faculty of Political and Economic Sciences of Rio Grande, from 1955 to 1972, according to the norms and recommendations found in the archival literature, aiming at the preservation of cultural heritage, documentary and institutional memory. The research is classified as exploratory, qualitative and descriptive. Data collection was carried out through direct observation, bibliographic and documentary research. The work addresses the archival function of document description and the description standards recommended for use in archives. Next, an analysis of the context and content of the FCPE photographic collection is presented, providing an interpretation and description to researchers. The description of the photographs was based on the Brazilian Standard for Archival Description, and resulted in the elaboration of the "Selective Catalog of Photographs of FCPE", the final product of the master's dissertation. The production and propagation of the research contributes to the preservation, access and spread of the photographic heritage that portrays the history and memory of one of the Faculties that gave rise to FURG.

Green Information Technology (Green IT) involves the effective and efficient consumption of resources, through the use of IT infrastructures to address environmental sustainability (HERNANDEZ, 2017), and it began to be addressed in the academic literature from 2007 onwards. The objective of this work was to verify the influence of ecological certification on consumer behavior, considering the scenario of Brazilian information technology. Bibliometrics and interviews were carried out with internationally and nationally relevant authors in the Green IT area in order to support the construction of an online experimental model, based on the identified gap in relation to the individual's behavior. The themes of green consumption and brand equity were also integrated – using the constructs of Lages and Vargas Neto (2002) and Oliveira (2013), respectively. The subjects who participated in the research were professors and administrative technicians in education at the Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM). Among the four notebooks in the experiment task, the “winner”, in terms of purchase choice, was the HP model, with an i5 processor and ecological certification. The other three models are: HP, i3, certified; Dell, i3, uncertified; Dell, i5, uncertified. Overall, the research sought to demonstrate the outlook of the Green IT market in the Brazilian context. Nonparametric statistics and qualitative analysis were used to obtain the results. Regarding the hypotheses, based on what the respondents said: the most considered attribute when choosing notebooks by the subjects is performance. Then comes price and brand. Ecological certification occupies the last position. However, it is important to bear in mind that what is expressed as the most important attribute does not always appear as the main reason for purchasing a notebook. For example, in the qualitative analysis, the ecological certification overlaps the brand in reasons for choosing to buy the two products that have ecological certification in the experiment (from the HP brand). The second hypothesis tested in the research: “the greater the sustainable consumption, the greater the intention to purchase products with ecological certification” was partially accepted by 29% (in 7 of 24 variables of the sustainable consumption construct). The third hypothesis: “a positive attitude towards ecological certification leads to greater purchase intention” was partially accepted by 26%, when considering the quantitative analysis. The qualitative analysis showed that the ecological seal is cited in second place as the reason for choosing the winning notebook, as specified above. However, it is important to consider that the results of initial preferences and, later, of brand equity point to Dell brand. Hypothesis 4: “a positive attitude towards ecological certification leads to a greater perception of brand equity in ecologically correct products” has an acceptance percentage of 31% (8 out of 24 variables of the brand equity construct). The findings are in agreement with Schmidt et al. (2010) 12 years ago: 26.6% of the market for green products in the IT area, taking the period of completion of this study as a parameter. So, even though more than a decade has passed, the findings still seem to be very close. It is believed that the high number of respondents with a lack of knowledge regarding the ecological certification of products (57% and 55% in the two products that present this specification) brings the need for actions to clarify and disseminate ecological seals and, specifically, in the IT area. Overall, around 9% of participants are not familiar with the EPEAT seal. For Alves (2017a), many seals are unknown to consumers. Regarding the sustainable consumption construct, the aspects that stand out are related to energy savings and recycling. According to Schmidt et al. (2010), low energy consumption and the concept of disposal are important arguments for consumers. It is noteworthy that the results of the qualitative analysis, the statistical notes and the results regarding the choice of notebook purchase suggest that female individuals pay more attention to ecological certification than male individuals. In the study by Schmidt et al. (2010), female clients valued ecologically correct attributes. According to Young et al. (2010), in each decision to purchase a product or service, there is a greater or lesser potential to contribute to a more or less sustainable consumption pattern, which involves aspects such as ethics, resources, waste and impact on the community. It was also found that: liking a product does not necessarily indicate that the consumer will buy it. Differences are noted when variation occurs: products shown separately versus the 4 products shown together. It is hoped that the results of this study can encourage academia and the Brazilian market so that advances can be made in the discussion and implementation of sustainability measures in the area of information technology. Furthermore, it seeks to contribute to the dissemination and implementation of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is considered a worldwide public health problem due to its high incidence and high public costs. Although the pathophysiology of TBI is multifaceted, the occurrence of coagulopathy is strongly associated with poor outcomes. Changes in the neurovascular tissue after trauma, increase the permeability of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), allowing the passage of proteases from the circulatory system, such as thrombin, to the brain parenchyma. In the brain, the presence of this protease promotes the activation of pro-inflammatory pathways and neuronal excitability through PAR-1 receptors, which may facilitate the appearance of post-traumatic seizures. In this sense, it is important to elucidate the exercise of physical exercise in protection against the development of post traumatic epilepsy and its relationship with the neurovascular system. Since exercise can positively influence the extracellular microenvironment and may promote neural repair processes, it is important to elucidate the involvement of physical activity in protecting against the development of epileptic seizures after TBI and its relationship with the neurovascular system. Along these lines, this paper presents a literature review regarding the effects of physical exercise on the neurovascular system after TBI. Furthermore, the effect of severe TBI induced by fluid percussion injury in Wistar rats was investigated, which were analyzed through an electroencephalographic (EEG) analysis via radio telemetry and subsequent biochemical analyses. The animals in the TBI group reinforced a significant increase in the number of spikes and in the frequency of waves in the electroencephalographic recordings, as well as decreasing the latency for the onset of the first crisis and increasing the mean duration of the seizures. Regarding biochemical analysis, an increase in thrombin and PAR-1 expression was observed in the hippocampus of animals 6 hours after TBI, as well as an increase in inflammatory markers, such as IL-1β and TNF-α. In addition, TBI induced an increase in protein expression p / t-AKT, p / t-P70, ERK 1/2 and GFAP. Additionally, animals that were discovered by TBI dissipated a reduction in the expression of Na +, K + -ATPase (NKA). Activation of inflammatory pathways and thrombin increased the animals brain excitability, contributing to the development of seizures.

Pregnancy usually presents a course without complications. However, in some cases, the development of pathologies inherent to pregnancy or the presence of previous pathologies may occur, increasing the risk of complications. Hypertensive diseases during pregnancy represent significant complications, contributing to high maternal, fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. The University Hospital of Santa Maria (HUSM), a regional reference for prenatal care of high-risk pregnant women, presents an ideal setting for the study of the routes of delivery, as well as gestational and perinatal outcomes, in patients with Gestational Hypertensive Disease. This study aims to characterize the epidemiological profile of parturients, evaluate prenatal and delivery data, including indications for birth, route of delivery and its complications, as well as data on the newborn. A quantitative, observational and cross-sectional study was carried out based on interviews with postpartum women and on the review of the medical records of hypertensive pregnant women without comorbidities who gave birth at the HUSM, Santa Maria, RS, between January 2017 and June 2018. A descriptive analysis of the variables and the association between them was verified by the chi-square test, with a significance level of 5%. This study complied with the ethical precepts contained in CNS Resolution n.466/2012 and was approved by the UFSM Ethics Committee (opinion n° 2,814,895 and CAAE 1 59366116.5.0000.5346). During the analysed period, there were 3156 births at the HUSM, with 31.1% in hypertensive pregnant women. The study included 1904 pregnant women, 981 (51.5%) with hypertension and 923 (48.5%) without comorbidities. Of the hypertensive women, 42.4% had pre-eclampsia (PE), 5.8% had PE superimposed on chronic hypertension (SAH), 12.0% had chronic SAH and 39.8% had gestational SAH. SAH was associated with maternal age equal to or greater than 35 years, obesity, nulliparity or multiparity, and prenatal care at a high-risk service with at least 6 prenatal appointments. Labor was predominantly spontaneous in patients without comorbidities (58.1%) and induced in hypertensive patients (42.7%), p<0.001. Of the induced deliveries, there was an association with vaginal delivery in pregnant women without comorbidities and cesarean delivery in hypertensive women (p<0.001). An association was observed between hypertensive pregnant women and complications in labor (p<0.001), vaginal delivery (P=0.011) and with birth weight <2500g (p<0.001). Newborns of hypertensive mothers were associated with neonatal complications (13,9%), need for resuscitation (3,4%) and admission to the neonatal intensive care unit (10,5%) (p<0.001). Through the present study, it was possible to elaborate an updated panorama of the morbidity profile, gestational outcomes and perinatal outcomes in patients with Gestational Hypertensive Disease treated at the HUSM, compared to pregnant women without comorbidities. Hypertensive diseases during pregnancy increase the risk of gestational and perinatal morbidity and mortality, increase the rate of induced deliveries and caesarean sections, requiring specialized care for these pregnant women in order to reduce unfavorable maternal and fetal outcomes.

Objective. There are no validated instruments to measure education-related stress in Brazilian university students. Thus, we aimed to translate and test internal reliability, convergent/discriminant validity, and measurement equivalence of the Higher Education Stress Inventory (HESI). Methods. The translation protocol was carried out by two independent translators. The instrument was culturally adapted after a pilot version that was administered to 36 university students. The final version (HESI-Br) was administered to 1021 university students (Mean age = 28.3, SD = 9.6, 76.7% female) via an online questionnaire that extended from September 1 to October 15, 2020. Factor structure was estimated using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) in the first half of the data set. We tested the best EFA-derived model with confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) in the second half. Convergent/discriminant validity was tested using the Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21). Sex, age groups, period of study, family income and area of study were used to test measurement equivalence. Results. EFA suggested five factors: career dissatisfaction; faculty shortcomings; high workload; financial concerns; and toxic learning environment. CFA supported the 5- factor model (15 items), but not a higher order factor, suggesting multidimensionality. All 5 factors presented acceptable internal reliabilities, with Cronbach’s α ≥.72 and McDonald’s ω ≥.64. CFA models indicate that HESI-Br and DASS-21 assess different but correlated underlying latent constructs, supporting discriminant validity. Equivalence was ascertained for all tested groups. Conclusions. The 15-item HESIBr is a reliable and invariant multidimensional instrument for assessing relevant stressors among university students in Brazil.

This dissertation, whose theme is “Heritage Education and Identity: Re-encounter of the Restinga Sêca Community with Iberê Camargo” is linked to the area of concentration and line of research History and Heritage of the Professional Master's Degree in Cultural Heritage. It is proposed to record the actions developed in heritage education as a way of valuing the cultural heritage and identity of the municipality of Restinga Sêca, associated with the artist Iberê Camargo, a native of this land. In this sense, to bring the restinguense community and sympathizers closer to the theme through the final product, the proposal to create the Iberê Camargo Memorial/Exhibition – in the Exhibition Room of the Restinga Sêca Railway Station, having as by-products of transversal functionalities (education, tourism and culture). ) dissemination and educational information materials. The result is the result of a research in documentary, bibliographic and oral sources. Especially the oral testimonies were very important to recover the trajectory of Iberê Camargo in his hometown and thus guarantee the recording and dissemination of this memory. Realizing that the art, the Railway and the regional history of the Quarta Colônia become integrated and fundamental to the formal and non-formal education in the perspective of heritage education in the scope of the aspiring Quarta Colônia geopark.

Objective: to evaluate the maternal-fetal hemodynamic by flow doppler parameters in response pregnant women with chronic systemic arterial hypertension (HAS) and with preeclampsia (PE) submitted to controlled isometric activity, comparing them with healthy patients. Methods: a crosssectional experimental study was carried out, with 50 healthy pregnant women (control group), 26 with HAS and 24 with PE, with gestational ages between 26 and 36 weeks, submitted to isometric effort activity with handgrip dynamometer and had maternal hemodynamic parameters (systolic blood pressure (PAS), diastolic (PAD), maternal heart rate (FCM) and uterine arteries (AU´s) Doppler) and fetal (heart rate, umbilical artery (AUm), middle cerebral artery ( MCA) and venous duct Doppler) verified before, during and after isometry. Results: the data demonstrated that, in the comparison of the groups, there were higher values in the PAS, PAD and pulsatility (IP), resistance (IR) and systole/diastole ratios (S/D) of the right and left AU's in pregnant women with PE in the three periods evaluated, as well as higher numbers in the IP and IR of the ACM in the pre and postisometric work and S/D of the ACM and FCM higher in the postisometric effort in the PE than in the healthy ones. When comparing the control group with chronic hypertensive women, PAS remained higher in all periods, the right AU and ACM indices were higher in pre-isometry, the ACM IP and all AUm indices were higher during the isometry and FCM and the IP and S/D of AUm remained higher after the isometry in the group with HAS. In healthy ones, only FCM transisometry was higher than in hypertensive women. In the comparison between the collection times, statistical significance was obtained for the control group in the increase of PAS and FCM and in the decrease of the left AU indices from pre to transisometry; in the decrease of PAS and FCM and in the increase of the PI of the right AU and of all the indices of the left AU from the trans to the postisometry. For the PE group, an increase in SBP and a decrease in the S / D of the right AU from the pre to the transisometry and the general variation of the DBP and the increase in the left AU indices from the trans to the post-isometry were confirmed. . In pregnant women with SAH, the increase in DBP and the decrease in the PI and IR of the right AU from the pre to the transisometry were ratified, as well as the increase in the PI and IR of the right AU and of all the indices of the left AU of the trans for post-contraction. Conclusion: there are higher PA values of pregnant women with PE and HAS, but with most significant increase from rest to isometry in healthy and PE patients; and with a relevant decrease from isometry to resting in healthy women. The right AU has greater resistance in patients with PE; with significant decrease of this resistance from rest to isometry in pregnant women with PE and HAS and with their increased from effort to rest in healthy and with chronic HAS. The left AU had decreased resistance before healthy women isometry and its resistance increases significantly post-contraction in all patients. The fetal hemodynamic parameters did not show significant differences when comparing the before, during and post-isometry.

In this work we present results of the qualitative theory of Ordinary Differential Equations used in the study of planar vector fields. Then, we apply these results to determine the global phase portrait in the Poincaré disk, of a family of planar cubic integrable vector fields with two invariant parabolas. As far as we know, this family has not yet been studied.

Healthy early childhood is essential for children's development, and the family is fundamental for this result, as the stimuli they receive in the environment in which they are inserted will expand or restrict their potential in child growth. Thus, in addition to day care centers for children, linked to public educational policy, thinking about complementary public policies aimed at early childhood is essential in a continental country such as Brazil. With the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, a situation emerged, until then, little imagined in the school and family universe and only reinforces the need for public policies aimed at early childhood. In order to reach this target audience, the Happy Child Program (PCF) was created by the Federal Government, with the purpose of providing the integral development of children in early childhood, taking into account their families and their living conditions. The present work deals with public policies for early childhood, highlighting the PCF and identifying, through interviews, the agents' perspective on the program. For a better understanding and improvement of the subject, concepts and studies by authors on legislation, development and characteristics are discussed. Therefore, as a source of primary data, a qualitative study was carried out through semi-structured interviews with agents (supervisors and social workers) from the municipalities of Dom Pedrito and Tenente Portela of Rio Grande do Sul, online and by telephone due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The interview protocol is divided into seven blocks: Profile of the agents of the Criança Feliz Program; Operational knowledge of the agents of the Happy Child Program; Quality of the structural elements of the Happy Child Program; Understanding the variables of the Happy Child Program; Interaction between the actors of the Criança Feliz Program, Services provided to beneficiaries and on the Criança Feliz Program. And to evaluate the Criança Feliz Program according to the perception of its visitors, as secondary data sources, data from the project carried out in 2020 was used: Qualitative evaluation of the perception of results of the Happy Child Program with its beneficiaries and agents: analysis of Public Policy for Early Childhood Care, Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM). Data analysis was performed manually with the aid of Brynard's 5C Protocol, bibliographic research, transcripts of interviews, content analysis, where opinions, difficulties and evaluations exposed by the agents of the Happy Child Program are exposed. The main results show that the materials needed for the Happy Child Program are offered, but it needs a new computer and an individualized room for consultations. As for the Administration of the Program, it should be noted that the number of services provided by the Program is sufficient; the policy for families' access to the Program is good, but it would need to offer more vacancies and collaborators. The interaction of agents with the beneficiary family, service colleagues and the social assistance network is very good, and the visitors are more intimate with the families. All agents highlighted the importance of the contributions of their work to the Program, the recognition and acceptance of society, they also considered the duration of the visits to be adequate. Finally, it was noticed that the commitment of the agents is satisfactory, most of them manage to fulfill their tasks and all find the service time adequate, the articulation between those involved in the Program is pleasant and productive, the communication is very good and intense.

The concept of creating public value is one of the topics that has been generally studied today. In this sense, public value has become, over time, of interest to society and scholars in the area (MEYNHARDT and JASINENKO, 2020). The present study has the general objective of identifying how the creation of public value affects the perception of stakeholder engagement. As specific objectives, the study proposes to: evaluate the perception of stakeholders regarding the creation of value; assess stakeholder perceptions of engagement and verify how value creation is related to engagement. This is a descriptive and quantitative research. The public of the present study were 226 public servants of a Municipal administration in the State of Rio Grande do Sul (RS). Data collection took place through the application of a questionnaire composed of three parts: Public Value Scale (EVP), Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) and characterization of the respondents' profile. Thus, first, the questionnaires were submitted to the face (or content) analysis process, with translation of the questionnaires, review by experts and pre-test. Afterwards, the data were submitted to descriptive statistics, correlation and regression analysis. In the results, the data showed that in the general characterization of the sample profile, the majority are male, aged between 48 and 54 years, and, as far as schooling is concerned, they have a degree. It was observed that three dimensions of public value creation and three items showed a positive and significant relationship in relation to work engagement. In this way, it was possible to verify that the creation of public value impacts on engagement at work. Finally, the present study aimed to contribute both in the practical and theoretical spheres. In the practical scope, through the measurement of the impact generated by the public organization, it was possible to verify that there was a creation of public value and engagement at work. In the theoretical sphere, it aimed to contribute to the literature on the topics of public value creation and Stakeholder management, engagement in work in the public sector.

Infant mortality is a collective health problem exacerbated by the socioeconomic disparities of a country. The World Health Organization (WHO, 2020) points out that infant mortality rates between 2000 and 2019 had a significant reduction in Brazil, according to the population projection made by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE, 2013). The variation was from 29.02 per thousand live births in 2000 to 13.82 in 2015. This social indicator portrays the reality of families living in a situation of socioeconomic vulnerability and highlights the need for public policies to face the problem. In this context, the Better Early Childhood Program (PIM) and the Happy Child Program (PCF), one at the state level and the other nationwide, aim to promote comprehensive care and care focused on early childhood. These programs have articulated actions in the areas of health, education, social assistance, human rights and culture, with a priority audience: children, pregnant women and families in situations of social vulnerability. Given the above, the study sought to analyze the impact of policies aimed at early childhood (PIM and PCF) on infant mortality in the municipalities of Rio Grande do Sul. Thus, the objectives presented in this work were: to analyze the spatial distribution of the infant mortality rate in the territory of Rio Grande do Sul, comparing its values in the participating and non-participating municipalities in the PIM and the PCF; to correlate the infant mortality rate with health expenditures and the GDP per capita of the municipalities and, finally, to assess whether the intervention of the PIM and PCF public policy contributed to the reduction of the infant mortality rate in Rio Grande do Sul. For this, the Exploratory Analysis of Spatial Data (AEDE) was carried out in order to observe the distribution of this rate in the municipalities. Afterwards, the Differences in Differences (DD) methodology was applied. Regarding the results, the child assistance programs had an estimated impact of -0.266 for the PIM and -0.612 for the PCF, which indicates that public policies are contributing to reduce the mortality rate in the territory of Rio Grande do Sul. Thus, the results of this study can help to identify ways to improve public actions aimed at children in vulnerable families.

Governance has been indispensable for the good development of contemporary society and has the purpose of bringing stakeholders together in order to form ideas for decision-making, thus contributing to local development. However, there is a need to investigate more deeply the relationship between public governance issues and stakeholders in the pursuit of development. In this way, the study contributes to measuring and concretizing the dimensions of public governance and local development. Thus, the objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between stakeholder governance and local development in the municipalities of Rio Grande do Sul (RS). The population analyzed consisted of counselors from the Regional Development Councils - RS (COREDE) and Municipal Secretaries. 570 respondents were sent between secretaries of the municipalities of RS and councilors of COREDE, with a return of 142 responses to the questionnaires sent, being that a return was obtained from 60 respondents from the executive, 70 respondents from civil society and 8 respondents from the legislature. For data analysis, the following statistical techniques were used (Descriptive Analysis, Factor Analysis and Regression), factorial analysis in this research was to highlight the predicted factors and regression was to correlate the factors studied. for data mining, it was done using SPSS 20.0® software. As a result of this research found some panoramas It can be concluded that in order to have a full Local Development it is necessary to have a Responsible Governance, Participatory Governance, Transparent Governance (advertising), Governance - Stakeholders and an Inclusive Governance.

Brazilian professional women have consolidated their work in the labor market by integrating multiple roles, often combining the exercise of motherhood, in search of personal and professional fulfillment. Currently, the possibility of actively maintaining the spheres of career and personal life with children is considered essential in the female trajectory. However, in this path, obstacles remain to be overcome, including those related to the overload of responsibilities resulting from the reconciliation of professional, personal and family life, as women remain the main responsible for raising and bonding with children (LIMA; LUCAS; FISCHER, 2011; OLIVEIRA et al., 2011; ANDRADE, 2012; FRANCO, 2018; REIS et al. 2018). This leads to the present study, with the objective of analyzing how Brazilian post-maternity professional women manifest the use of self-leadership strategies, through their constitutive categories and dimensions, in their experiences at work. Thus, it was proposed to research the reality of professional women after maternity at work, recognizing the complexity of their experience, the conflicts and challenges involved in reconciling their roles, and having self-leadership as an alternative to be used by women in the process of conducting of their professional and personal lives. To this end, two studies were carried out, the first being of a quantitative nature, through the application of a survey with the RSLQ-Br self-leadership scale with 354 post-maternity Brazilian professional women, which allowed the investigation of the psychometric properties of the scale and the identification of of the categories and dimensions of self-leadership with the highest incidence among the participants. The second study, of a qualitative nature, was developed through the application of semi-structured interviews with 21 women, characterized in terms of their work and motherhood trajectories, who had the use of self-leadership strategies analyzed to understand the manifestation in their daily experiences and the role of self-leadership in their post-maternity professional trajectories. In Study 1, after the validation of the RSLQ-Br self-leadership scale for application with post-maternity professional women, a higher incidence of use of the category of strategies for natural rewards was identified, followed by the categories of strategies of constructive thought patterns and focused on behavior. In Study 2, it was possible to identify the use of the three categories of self-leadership strategies, in addition to demonstrating how women perceive their experiences in reconciling work and maternal roles. The results obtained demonstrate the daily use of self-leadership strategies by post-maternity professional women participating in their experiences at work, but the challenges and difficulties related to the reconciliation of motherhood and work remain, which indicate the need to develop public and organizational policies that allow relieve some of the pressure and burden suffered by these women. The research advances the discussion on the conciliation of motherhood and work, emphasizing the importance of using strategies that allow better results in both fields, strengthening professional women, exploring possible alternatives that allow better balance, less overload and the reduction of guilt in the division of tasks and responsibilities.
