Objective. This work sought to characterize the scientific production of the degree works in the Master's in Collective Health (MCH) of the Faculty of Nursing at Universidad de Antioquia, during the period from 1996 to 2013. Methodology. Ours was a descriptive, observational study, based on documentary research and content analysis. The work analyzed the degree works presented in the MCH since 1996 until 2013, reported in the library of the Faculty of Nursing, and the scientific articles published. These were reviewed manually using an instrument containing the variables of the characteristics of the works and articles. Results. Some 51 degree works were included, corresponding to eight cohorts from the Master's in which 65 master's students have graduated and 61 professors have participated as counselors. The most common themes have been Gender and Health (27%) and Food and Nutrition Safety (16%). The most frequent populations object of study were women (14%) and population groups and/or community (14%). The methodologies used have been 90.2% qualitative, 3.9% quantitative, and 5.9% mixed. A total of 52.9% of the degree works were published as articles in scientific journals; of these, 46.49% corresponded to A2 journals, according to the classification by COLCIENCIAS. Conclusion. The characteristics of the degree works show increased dissemination in scientific journals, as well as diversification in the populations object of study and progress in the dissemination of the knowledge generated in the MCH, thus, contributing to progress in collective health in national and international settings.

La teoría fundamentada (TF) es una metodología de investigación ampliamente conocida y utilizada en las ciencias sociales. Tiene varias versiones (Teoría Fundamentada Glaseriana, Straussiana, Dimensional, Constructivista y Análisis Situacional) que muestran diferencias que tienden a generar cierta confusión en su estudio y uso. Es el caso del proceso de análisis de datos. Para identificar estas diferencias, se realizó una revisión intencionada de la literatura publicada en los últimos 20 años en español, portugués e inglés. Hicimos una búsqueda sistemática en cinco bases de datos científicas y Google Scholar Beta. Fueron seleccionados 72 textos, incluidos libros y artículos de los cuales 31 están escritos por los principales referentes de cada versión y 41 escritos por otros autores y autoras que contribuyen a la comprensión del método. El análisis de estos textos permitió identificar elementos comunes y diferencias significativas. Los resultados encontrados revelan cinco aspectos comunes entre las versiones: comparación constante, muestreo teórico, elaboración de memorandos, sensibilidad teórica y saturación teórica. Asimismo, se encontró diferencias significativas en el proceso de análisis de datos, las corrientes filosóficas de cada versión, la teoría generada, los datos recolectados como entrevistas, entre otros. En particular, el proceso de análisis en las cinco versiones tiene aspectos comunes, pero los procedimientos utilizados son diferentes. Finalmente, se elaboraron representaciones gráficas para facilitar la comprensión del análisis de datos. El artículo facilita a los investigadores, especialmente a los nuevos, reconocer cómo y cuándo encajar en los diversos aspectos utilizados para el análisis de datos, especialmente si los requisitos de la investigación obligan a mezclar o fusionar algunas perspectivas durante el proceso de análisis.Grounded Theory (TF) is a widely known and widely used research methodology in the social sciences. It has various versions (Glaserian Grounded Theory, Straussian, Dimensional, Constructivist and Situational Analysis) show differences that tend to generate some confusion in their study and use. It is the case with the data analysis process. To identify these differences, we carried out an intentional review of the literature published in the last 20 years in Spanish, Portuguese, and English. We did a systematic search in five scientific databases and Google Scholar Beta. We selected 72 texts, included books and articles. They were 31 of them written by the main referents of each version and, 41 were written by other authors who contribute to the understanding of the method. The analysis of these texts allowed us to identify common elements and significant differences. The results that we found reveal five common aspects between the versions: constant comparison, theoretical sampling, elaboration of memoranda, theoretical sensitivity, and theoretical saturation. Also, we found we find significant differences in the data analysis process, the philosophical currents of each version, the theory generated, the data collected as interviews, among others. In particular, the analysis process in the five versions has common aspects, but the procedures used are different. Finally, we elaborate graphical representations to facilitate understanding of data analysis. The article makes it easier for investigators, especially new ones, to recognize how and when to fit in the various aspects used for data analysis, especially if the research requirements force you to mix or merge some perspectives during the analysis process.
Objetivo: conhecer o significado da braquiterapia em mulheres com câncer ginecológico. Métodos: pesquisa qualitativa, descritiva e exploratória realizada com 32 mulheres, submetidas à braquiterapia em instituição oncológica de Santa Catarina, Brasil. Na coleta de dados, entre setembro de 2017 e julho de 2018, aplicou-se entrevista semiestruturada. As comunicações foram submetidas à análise de conteúdo, incluindo regras de enumeração para análise dos dados sociodemográficos, clínicos e para quantificação dos relatos agrupados. Publicações relacionadas com o tema e a Teoria do Conforto sustentaram teoricamente a inferência dos dados. Emergiram cinco categorias temáticas, neste artigo apresentam-se três. Resultados: a categoria “O medo e as crenças pessoais no enfrentamento do câncer ginecológico e da braquiterapia” destaca o medo da morte, o desejo pela cura e o apego à família e à religiosidade; “Medo do tratamento e desconfortos relacionados” retrata as alterações relacionadas aos contextos físico, psicológico e ambiental; “Dor como significado” revela a percepção dolorosa sentida pelas mulheres em decorrência da doença ou da braquiterapia. Conclusão: conhecer o significado da braquiterapia permite que os enfermeiros possam repensar a coleta de dados e o planejamento de enfermagem para melhor educação em saúde e redução dos desconfortos.
Objective: to understand the couple´s process to achieve fertility control. Methodology: a quantitative survey carried in Medellín, Colombia. Seventeen men and twenty three women between 20 and 35 years, of different social stratus and educational levels, with more than a year marital relationship were interviewed. The methodology is supported on grounded theory. Results: the findings show how according to feminine and masculine significants the couples assume a .xed position facing reproduction. This deal with is a decision-taking process between risky and safe decisions. Accordingly some are continually “searching security” to avoid unwanted children while others are continually “taking risks” about an unwanted pregnancy. Discussion: the couple’s strategies to face reproduction are tainted by their interpretation of the gender norms. The security looking couples assume gender norms in a flexible way whereas the risk-taking couples have a rigid perception of the gender norms and the power relationships. Conclusions: the conclusion is that the masculine and feminine significants about how males and females should be influences their reproductive behavior. The couples´ contexts and significants about reproduction define their behavior in birth control. Accordingly it is fundamental to know the context and perceptions about reproduction if we want to provide education able to transform behavior.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
