This dissertation aimed to analyze the domain of learning to exert a mediating effect on the relationship between an individual absorptive capacity and an individual innovativeness to innovate in the development of a brand. Purpose of consideration: individual absorptive capacity, individual innovativeness and domain of learning (cognitive, affective and psychomotor). The domain - cognitive, affective and psychomotor are object of studies related to educational objectives (Krathwohl, 2002). The last two - affective and psychomotor - have not yet been approached with intensity in the studies on the absorptive capacity of the organizational knowledge. Thus, it is due to this gap of knowledge that the present study was developed. Others results: 1. Evaluate the intensity of predominance of individual absorptive capacity; 2. Evaluate the dominance intensity of cognitive, affective and psychomotor domain of learning in brand development; 3. Evaluate the intensity of individual innovativeness in brand development. The research method was used for the quantitative because a structured and closed questionnaire was applied. It is understood that this research was exploratory because, a priori, a literature review was not identified, which involves the relationship between an, individual absorptive capacity, individual innovativeness capacity and domain of learning. Considerations on the interpretation of a description, analysis and interpretation of the informants assessments of these constructs. The research was in a networks retailers / supermarkets located in São Paulo capital. Four large networks were surveyed with 76 respondents. In order to obtain the necessary information for an understanding of the phenomena studied, the informants were managers in the areas of brand development. Data collection was done in person through questionnaire questions and answers. The interviewee can be heard by himself and respond as questions online or physically. As a result of the research, identifying itself as a domain of learning enterprise as a mediating variable, or as an individual absorptive capacity and an individual innovativeness for innovation.

Prader-willi syndrome (pws) presents a complex clinical condition characterized by several alterations and endocrine, hypothalamic, metabolic, cognitive and behavioral disorders. One of the main symptoms of this disease is hyperphagia, being responsible for the increased risk for the development of obesity, cardiovascular diseases, endocrine and respiratory dysfunctions. Many behavior problems of people with pws are associated to hypothalamic dysfunctions related to inhibitory control that lead to development of behavior patterns of aggressiveness and manipulation for obtaining food. Caregivers of people with pws must establish environments with rigorous controls of food stimulation to avoid overstated caloric intakes. The objective of this study was to verify behavior problems and information of dietary intake of a group of people with prader-willi syndrome. The specific objectives were: a) verify the dietary intake of macronutrients and micronutrients, as well as the nutritional status of the group according to age groups. B) identify associations among dietary intake and nutritional monitoring of the group according to age groups. C) verify and compare behavior problems and associations with dietary intake among age groups. The study adopted a cross-sectional design and was composed by a sample of 22 people of both genders with pws (children, adolescents and adults aged at least 1 year old and maximum of 22) and their caregivers (project approved by ethics committee in research with human beings as the protocol - process cep/upm caae n. 34649314.2.0000.0084). The instruments of data collection were: a) instruments of nutritional, behavioral and physical assessment belonging to the protocol of evaluation of people with pws of department of kinesiology of college ofhealth and human development of california state university, fullerton; b) nutrition screen and intake form; c) 24-hour recall (24hr); d) verification of body mass index (bmi); e) brief problem monitor - parent form for ages 6-18 (bpm-p). The main results indicate the prevalence of several behavior problems assessed by instruments that evaluate this variable, with predominance of this problems in the group above 11 years old. Similar data were obtained regarding the dietary intake. More than 80% of total sample performed nutritional monitoring, however were verified indicative correlation that the greater the age, greater the dietary intake, especially of macronutrients. Also the higher age group makes a greater number of meals out home. In adolescence and adult age Externalizing behavior problems as challenge, aggressiveness and perserverative answers characterized more consistently the behavioral phenotype of pws. These are problems that when associated with the main symptom of disease, hyperphagia, complicate the management of people with pws, especially in relation to food access. It s likely that increased intake of macronutrients, especially energy and lipids, are associated with these behavior problems in people with pws over 11 years old. It's concluded from data that in the sample there are indicators of behavior problems and dietary intake that require multiprofessional interventions on people with pws and their family members focusing on dietary/nutritional, psychological, endocrinological and family social aspects.

In the face of technological advancements, growing demand for audiovisual content and changes in media consumption habits, production companies have the need to develop new and efficient platforms for their content distribution, seeking greater coverage, flexibility in delivery and therefore, quality of user experience. In this context, the broadcast industry needs to review its processes and reduce its operational costs in the content distribution stage to be competitive, in a global player market break paradigms has become fundamental. With the aim to find alternatives to solve the problem that the industry faces and to contribute to facilitate the decision making in the analysis of new technologies implementation, the use of multicriteria decision-making methods minimizes the possibility of errors, mitigating the risks and increasing effectiveness in the decision-making process. From the competitive dimensions based on the Operations Strategy, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was applied to determine the scenario that presents the best result according to the previously defined competitive variables. Once the best alternative was selected, the GUT matrix was applied to prioritize the actions, enabling and accelerating the implementation of it, as well as supporting the process improvement and effectiveness. For the research development, experts and stakeholders opinions were collected, deal with the novelty in the application of a new technology, conflicting stakeholders interests and different variables in the decision process are the challenges that must be overcome for the choice and success implementation of a new content distribution platform. Thus, with a structured mapping and a complete view of the process, two distinct implementation steps were adopted sequentially. As a result, a first solution was proposed with the reducing operational costs aim, as well as serving as the basis and structure for a second intervention, which seeks new models and business opportunities.

This research analyzes the establishment of the insólito in the tales of Rubens Figueiredo's collection, The book of the wolves (2009). For this purpose, it was searched to understand how the constituent mechanisms of the fantastic, such as the reader’s and/or the character’s hesitation, the lack of the characters’ nomenclature, the spatial inaccuracy of the narrative, the self-diegetic narrator, the behavioral and the discursive ambiguity assist in the establishment of this textual modality in the chosen corpus. Thus, this dissertation starts from the principle of the importance of the corpus reading of this study, as well as from the theoretical apparatuses such as David Roas (2001), Filipe Furtado (1980), Jaime Alazraki (2001), Remo Ceserani (2006) and Rosalba Campra (2016) etc, in order to understand the divergences and the approximations of the strands in regarding to the fantastic narrative concept. The focus of this work is on the fact that the tales start from a narrative principle that oscillates between reality and unreality. The achieved results show that there are oscillations and ruptures in the plot of these narratives, facts that establish the fantastic in the tales
