Background The increase in violence against health professionals in the COVID-19 pandemic makes it necessary to identify the predictors of violence, in order to prevent these events from happening. Objective Evaluating the prevalence and analyzing the variables involved in the occurrence of violence against health professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. Method This is a cross-sectional study conducted online involving Brazilian health professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data were collected through a structured questionnaire (Google Online Form) sent to health professionals on social networks and analyzed through logistic regression by using sociodemographic variables. The set of grouped variables was assigned to the final model when p <0.05. A network was built using the Mixed Graph Models (MGM) approach. A centrality measurement chart was constructed to determine which nodes have the greatest influence, strength and connectivity between the nodes around them. Results The predictors of violence in the adjusted regression model were the following: being a nursing technician / assistant; having been working for less than 20 years; working for over 37 hours a week; having suffered violence before the pandemic; having been contaminated with COVID-19; working in direct contact with patients infected by the virus; and having family members who have suffered violence. The network created with professionals who suffered violence demonstrated that the aggressions occurred mainly in the workplace, with an indication of psycho-verbal violence. In cases in which the aggressors were close people, aggressions were non-verbal and happened both in public and private places. The assaults practiced by strangers occurred in public places. Conclusions Violence against health professionals occurs implicitly and explicitly, with consequences that can affect both their psychosocial well-being and the assistance given to their patients and families.

Even though sport satisfaction has proved an important element for youngsters to keep practicing sports, little is known on the sport satisfaction of coaches. Moreover, the coach-athlete relationship is acknowledged as a key element for sport success, but whether its importance is the same for coaches and athletes is yet to be investigated. Our study analyzed the mediating role of the coach-athlete relationship in associating the satisfaction of basic psychological needs and sport satisfaction of Brazilian coaches and athletes. 364 coaches and athletes participated in the study representing 182 dyads from different sports according to the following instruments: Basic Needs Satisfaction Sport Scale (BNSSS), Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire, athlete and coach versions (CART-Q), and the Athletic Satisfaction Questionnaire (ASQ). Data analysis followed a Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with a significance level of p < 0.05, generating results in which the mediating model for coaches was not adequately fit, while the direct model, without mediation, was adequately fit and explained 48% of sport satisfaction variance. For athletes, the mediating model has shown adequate fit and explained 81% of the sport satisfaction variance, leading us to conclude that the quality of the coach-athlete relationship can be considered a determining factor for the satisfaction of young Brazilian athletes’ basic psychological needs as well as sport satisfaction, but proved not as relevant to their coaches.

This study aimed to analyze the antecedent factors associated with the coach athlete relatioship (CART) from the perspective of Brazilian coaches. 182 Brazilian coaches of both sexes, with an average age of 40.47 ± 9.7 years, participating in the 2015 Youth School Games were subjected. As instruments were used: identification form, Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q coach version) and the Basic Needs in Sports Satisfaction Scale (BNSSS). Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics using Binary Logistic Regression (p <0.05). The results showed that the time of relationship had a significant association (p <0.20) with 3,410 times more likely to have high quality in the affective aspect of CART compared to a shorter time of relationship. The length of the relationship explained 2.927 more chances of occurring the presence of high quality cognitive aspects in periods of relationship over 4 years. It was observed that the time of experience explains in 2,655 more chances the satisfactory relationships, while the autonomy of the trainer explains in 2,589 more chances the presence of the cognitive aspect of the CART. Age and satisfaction of basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence and relationship) were associated with the quality of the commitment in the coach-athlete relationship (p <0.20). It is concluded that factors related to the relationship time, experience time, satisfaction of the basic psychological needs of autonomy and relationships in the sports context are favorable for quality relationships, in the perception of Brazilian coaches.

Coaching positive youth development (PYD) represents a challenge for many participation and high-performance coaches across the globe, including in Brazil. Coach education has been acknowledged as a formal learning context that may help prepare coaches to effectively foster PYD outcomes and provide high-quality developmental experiences for athletes across different sport contexts. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to describe the key concepts and existing guidelines for coaching and coach education in Brazil, and provide context-specific recommendations for coach education to include PYD materials. Coaching in Brazil includes a long preparation period that includes diversified opportunities for coach learning. However, there are some discrepancies between the objectives and outcomes prioritized by governing bodies and sport organizations and how learning contexts are framed. In other words, although PYD is considered to be a necessary endeavor, it is not explicitly included in any coach education program. Moving forward, we provide several recommendations, through a bottom-up approach, in order to embed PYD within the Brazilian sport system.

RESUMOEste estudo objetivou analisar o impacto do nível socioeconômico (NSE) sobre o desempenho motor mediado pelas affordances do ambiente domiciliar de crianças com idade média de 42 meses. Foram sujeitos 86 crianças (39 meninas e 47 meninos) matriculadas em 24 Centros Municipais de Educação Infantil. Como instrumentos de medida foram utilizados a Classificação da Associação Brasileira de Empresas de Pesquisa (ABEP), a Affordances for Home Environment Motor Development (AHEMD-SR) e a Bateria de Avaliação do Movimento para Crianças (MABC-2). Na análise dos dados foram utilizados o teste de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, "U" de Mann-Whitney e Análise de equações estruturais (p<0,05). Os resultados evidenciaram que as crianças de classe média alta possuem mais affordances em comparação às crianças de classe média baixa, no entanto, não houve diferença significativa no desempenho motor entre os grupos. O nível socioeconômico mais elevado não implica positivamente sobre o desempenho motor, entretanto, quando mediado pelas affordances domiciliares (materiais de motricidade fina e estimulação do espaço interno) demonstra um efeito positivo embora fraco no desempenho motor das crianças. Concluiu-se que o alto nível socioeconômico familiar não é suficiente para estruturar um ambiente domiciliar que oportunize o aperfeiçoamento do desempenho motor infantil, além do que as affordances presentes nos ambientes domiciliares parecem não estimular adequadamente o desempenho motor das crianças.

Subjects were 86 kids (39 girls and 47 boys) enrolled in 24 Childhood Education Center of the city of Maringá-PR. The instruments used were the Classification of the Brazilian Association of Research Companies\ABEP, the Affordances for Home Environment Motor Development (AHEMD-SR) and the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2\MABC-2. For data analysis, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney and Structural Equation Analysis were conducted (p<0,05). The results showed that children from upper middle class have more affordances compared to children from lower middle class; however, there was no significant difference in motor performance between the groups. The higher socioeconomic status does not have a direct impact on the motor performance, however, when mediated by household affordances (fine motor materials and internal space stimulation) it shows a positive, although weak effect on kids' motor performance. It was concluded that high family socioeconomic status is not enough to support a home environment that provides the enhancement of infant motor performance; in addition, the affordances in the domestic environment does not seem to stimulate adequately the kids' motor performance.

ARTIGO ORIGINAL | ORIGINAL ARTICLE RESUMOO objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o estado nutricional e o nível socioecónomico de escolares com provável desordem coordenativa desenvolvimental (DCD), risco de DCD e desenvolvimento típico (DT). Participaram 581 crianças com idades entre 7 e 10 anos de escolas públicas de um município do noroeste do Paraná. Para avaliação do desempenho motor utilizou-se a Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC); medidas antropométricas de peso e altura para avaliar o estado nutricional e o Questionário ABEP para a classificação socioeconómica. Para análise dos dados utilizou-se o teste Kolmogorov-Smirnov, teste Qui-quadrado e estatística descritiva, adotando p < .05. Os resultados demonstraram que 78.1% dos escolares apresentaram DT, 10.5% apresentaram risco de DCD e 11.4% provável DCD. Ocorreu associação significativa entre provável DCD e a classe econômica "C" (p = .01). O estado nutricional não esteve associado ao desempenho motor e ao nível socioeconómico dos escolares. Concluise que ocorreu alta prevalência de provável DCD e risco de DCD. Quanto ao estado nutricional, para esta amostra não ocorreu associação com o DCD. No entanto, para o nível socioeconómico foi encontrada associação com o provável DCD, ocorrendo maior proporção desses escolares nos níveis sociais mais baixos.Palavras-chave: desordem de habilidade motora, estado nutricional, nível socioeconómico ABSTRACT The aims of study was to analyze the nutritional status and socioeconomic level from students with probable developmental coordination disorder (DCD), Risk of DCD and Typical Developmental (TD). Participated 581 children from 7 to 10 years old from public schools to the city in the northwest of Paraná. To assess the motor performance were used the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC); anthropometrics measures of weight and height to analyze the nutritional status and the ABEP Questionnaire to assess the socioeconomic level. To statistical analyses were used the KolmogorovSmirnov test, Chi-Square test and descriptive statistical (p < .05). The results showed that 78.1% of students with TD, 10.5% showed risk of DCD and 11.4% showed probable DCD. There were association for the probable DCD and socioeconomic level C (p = .01). There weren't associations between nutritional status and motor performance, even to the nutritional status with socioeconomic level. It was concluded that occurred high prevalence of probable DCD and risk of DCD and there was no association between probable DCD and nutrition status to these population, however it was found a greater proportion this students in the low social group.

The low professional insertion of psychologists in Brazilian sports teams, as well as the Sport Psychology course being seldom offered in undergraduate Psychology courses, may reflect in the current scenario of scientific research in Brazil. It is still not clear what Graduate Programs (GPs) have adopted directions regarding the development of studies in Sport and Exercise Psychology (SEP) research fields since an assessment or mapping of scientific knowledge production in this area has not yet been performed involving Exercise and Sport Science and Psychology GPs. This study aimed at investigating institutional research and their themes in SEP from these graduate programs. Studies were selected and retrieved from a national database (Sucupira Platform), that contains all registered researches from all Exercise and Sport Science (n = 31) and Psychology (n = 84) GPs in the country. Data were analyzed through R software using text mining techniques, latent semantic analysis and K-means clustering. Results revealed that research involving SEP is predominantly being developed at Exercise and Sport Science GPs (n = 171; p < 0.01) in comparison to psychology GPs (n = 39), mostly located in the south and southeast regions of Brazil. This research has focused on the effects of physical exercise and quality of life, while Psychology GPs have analyzed sport as associated with health and education, as a way to promote social support and to study sports’ psychological aspects. It was concluded that Exercise and Sport Science GPs had the most significant contribution to SEP. Investigations were focused on the interface of exercise with quality of life, health and education, with gaps existing in programs advancing in the studies on sports and performance.
