Abstract: The incorporation of Mindfulness and Guided Meditation Practices (MMEG) in
education has been associated with improvements in behavioral, social, and emotional
profiles, leading to advancements in mental health. In this context, this dissertation
hypothesized that MMEG practice positively influences behavioral profiles by reducing
anxiety, depression, anger, and other aspects in young public school students. The
objective was to analyze the impact of MMEG on the students' behavioral profiles,
assessing its effects on various aspects such as attention and concentration, anger
and aggression regulation, as well as depression and anxiety levels in 12th-grade
students from a public school. The research culminated in the development of an
intervention project to be implemented in schools to support student education.
Methodology: An experimental, randomized study was conducted with 47 participants
divided into two groups, the Experimental Group (EG) with 25 participants and the
Control Group (CG) with 22 participants. Participants were assessed and selfevaluated
for anxiety, depression, aggression, attention, and concentration. After the
psychometric evaluation and self-perception assessments for all groups, the EG
underwent training in pre-selected MMEG practices with eight weekly sessions lasting
30 to 50 minutes each. Finally, the same initial psychometric and self-perception
assessments were repeated for result comparison. Results showed a 15% increase
in self-perceived happiness, a 48% reduction in depression scores, a 67.7% decrease
in anxiety scores, shifting from severe to mild anxiety classification in the EG compared
to the CG. Attention and concentration increased by 20%, and anger scores decreased
by 6% in the EG compared to the CG. The research revealed that the MMEG tool is
cost-effective and easily implemented in the school environment, yielding significant
results in various aspects of behavior, potentially facilitating the learning process.
Additionally, as a result of the research, a training manual for teachers and/or
psychologists to act as facilitators in the classroom-adapted MMEG training was
developed as a Technical Product.; RESUMEN
La incorporación de prácticas de Mindfulness y meditación guiada (MMEG) en la
educación se ha asociado con la mejora del perfil conductual, social y emocional, lo
que lleva a avances en la salud mental. En este contexto, la presente tesis planteó la
hipótesis de que la práctica de MMEG tiene un impacto positivo en el perfil conductual,
reduciendo la ansiedad, la depresión, la ira y otros aspectos en jóvenes de escuelas
públicas. El objetivo fue analizar el impacto de la MMEG en el perfil conductual de los
estudiantes, evaluando su efecto en diversos aspectos, como la atención y la
concentración, la regulación de la ira y la agresividad, así como los niveles de
depresión y ansiedad en estudiantes de tercer año de secundaria de una escuela
pública. La investigación culminó con la elaboración de un proyecto de intervención
destinado a ser implementado en las escuelas para contribuir a la educación de los
estudiantes. Metodología: se llevó a cabo un estudio experimental aleatorizado con
un total de 47 participantes, divididos en dos grupos: Grupo Experimental (GE) con 25
participantes y Grupo de Control (GC) con 22 participantes. Se evaluaron la ansiedad,
la depresión, la agresividad, la atención y la concentración mediante evaluaciones
psicométricas y autoevaluaciones antes y después de un programa de entrenamiento
en MMEG para el GE, que constó de 8 sesiones semanales con una duración de 30
a 50 minutos cada una. Posteriormente, se realizaron las mismas evaluaciones
psicométricas y autoevaluaciones iniciales para comparar los resultados. Resultados:
Se observó un aumento del 15% en la autopercepción de la felicidad, una reducción
del 48% en la puntuación de depresión, una disminución del 67,7% en la ansiedad,
pasando de una categorización de ansiedad grave a leve en el GE en comparación
con el GC, un aumento del 20% en la atención y la concentración, y una disminución
del 6% en la puntuación de ira en el GE en comparación con el GC. La investigación
reveló que el uso de MMEG es una herramienta de bajo costo y fácil implementación
en el entorno escolar, con resultados significativos en diversas áreas del
comportamiento, lo que podría facilitar el proceso de aprendizaje. Como resultado de
la investigación, se desarrolló un manual de formación para profesores y/o psicólogos
como un Producto Técnico, para que actúen como facilitadores en la enseñanza de
MMEG adaptada para el aula.

Abstract: The present research aimed to describe and analyze how stigma and
discrimination affect the quality of life of people living with HIV undergoing treatment.
It was a quantitative and qualitative study, with a methodological design conducted in
two stages. The first stage involved 50 adult users of the Specialized Care Service
SAE/CTA in a municipality in the South of Minas Gerais, individually subjected to a
Sociodemographic Questionnaire and the WHOQOL HIV - bref Quality of Life Scale.
In the second stage, a semi-structured interview was conducted with 3 participants
who obtained the lowest results and 3 with the highest results in terms of quality of life,
aiming to analyze their perception of stigma. The data obtained in the first stage were
analyzed quantitatively using descriptive statistics, and in the second stage, the
analysis was qualitative, based on Bardin's content analysis methodology (1988/2012)
of the reported contents. The results were integrated into a conclusive synthesis to
address the proposed objective. Regarding the results, it was possible to observe that
among the four highest results on the WHOQOL HIV bref, participants with much
higher than average income were included, demonstrating that income factors interfere
with the quality of life of the researched population. Based on the data obtained in the
research, four categories were identified: Category A: Believes they have not
experienced stigma because, out of fear of experiencing it, they chose not to disclose
their HIV status to others. Category B: No longer engaged in sexual relationships after
diagnosis. Category C: Did not expect the diagnosis because they did not believe they
were vulnerable to the virus due to lack of risk behaviors. Category D: Associated the
diagnosis with a death sentence. The analysis showed that anticipated stigma was
primarily responsible for affecting the quality of life of this population, and that social
markers such as gender, race, and socioeconomic class should be considered in the
pursuit of promoting full access to health and equity for the relief of psychological
suffering in this population. Thus, the results can enhance the understanding of health
and contribute to the implementation of inclusive public policies aimed at the quality of
life, promotion, recovery, and health prevention of people living with HIV, as it can
directly impact the prevention of new infections.

Abstract: People experiencing homelessness (PEH) is a daily expanding phenomenon, their presence being noticeable when walking through cities. According to research by the Institute of Applied Economic Research, this population grew 140% in Brazil between 2012 and 2020. Among the reasons that have led to this increase is mainly the abusive use of alcohol and drugs. In addition to chemical dependency and infectious and parasitic diseases, the PEH are also affected by chronic non-communicable diseases, among which the most prevalent is systemic arterial hypertension, which has proved to be one of the important challenges in the field of public health, especially by the difficulty of instituting treatment in the territory that these people occupy. On the other hand, the shelter has been proven to be a potential facilitator for the implementation of public policies that have non-drug treatment as their great differential. Changing behavior and lifestyle, however, is still a major obstacle in clinical practice under any circumstances, becoming even greater among homeless patients, due to the socioeconomic context in which they find themselves. Thus, the objective of the present study was to identify the motivational factors involved in the acceptance of non-drug treatment associated with drug treatment by a homeless population in a municipal shelter. This exploratory, observational, and descriptive research was carried out through a case study in the central region of the city of Santos (SP). Initially, the medical records of the shelter's users were consulted, to identify hypertensive patients; later, semi-structured individual interviews were conducted and, finally, the interest and motivation to accept the lifestyle change was investigated. The collected data were transcribed and analyzed following the assumptions of the descending hierarchical classification technique, using textual analysis software (IRAMuTeQ, version 0.7 alpha 2). It was concluded that the creation of an action focused on the non-drug treatment against hypertension with an emphasis on physical activity can rescue the PEH's self-esteem and, consequently, stimulate changes in their lifestyle.

Abstract: This dissertation is a methodological proposal for contextualized learning of the linguistic repertoires of the English language for the early years of elementary school. This is an investigation based on the concept of dodiscence in Freire (2018b), an emancipatory educational practice opposed to banking education that silences and alienates students in their schooling processes. From the question problem that asks about which teaching strategies it is possible to develop the critical reflection of teachers and students on their teaching-learning processes, the hypothesis was raised that dodiscence, as a methodological strategy, can help in the identification of misunderstandings and difficulties, aiming broadly at recognition, awareness, contextualization and criticality about pedagogical processes, and specifically, the development of vocabularies in Portuguese/English, following the programmatic contents of the Santista Curriculum (2019). The participants of the research are 20 students, children between 7 and 8 years old, in the process of literacy in Portuguese language, who study in a public school in the city of Santos. Data were collected through face-to-face classes, following an activity protocol. This is a qualitative investigation, whose bases are close to the research-formation, based on Josso (2004), by highlighting the participation of teachers and students, as a way to overcome the passivity of practices. Content analysis is based on Franco (2018) finding in the students’ messages and intentionality the data to resignify the theme researched. In the construction of the criticism of the school and the norms that govern it, the official documents that guide the teaching of the English language in Brazil were taken as reference, as well as the contribution of authors, especially: Algebaile (2009), Althusser (1998); Bourdieu (2001); Freire (2018a; 2018b); Frigotto (2011); Gadotti (2001); Giroux (1997); Gonçalves (2010); Gonçalvez and Bock (2009); Gramsci (2001); Libâneo (2012); Marx and Engels (2000); Oliveira (2010a; 2010b); Saviani (2019); Souza (2009); Stamato (2016); Vygotsky (2001); among others, composing a bibliographic review that recognizes the possibilities of the public school as a privileged place and able for the entire school community to have a political-educational action, electing dialogicity as a way to broaden knowledge, taking the subjects as critics and producers of knowledge.
