Download or read book Decis o perspectivas interdisciplinares written by Carlos Henggeler Antunes and published by Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra / Coimbra University Press. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este livro revisita o ciclo de conferências sobre “Decisão”, organizado pelo III-UC, INESC Coimbra e FEUC, cujas sessões tiveram lugar em Outubro e Novembro de 2005, que contaram com a participação de quatro cientistas de mérito internacionalmente reconhecido, os Profs. Alexis Tsoukiàs (Paris), John Broome (Oxford), Ralph Keeney (Duke) e Paul Slovic (Oregon). Estes cientistas apresentaram quatro perspetivas diversas acerca do tema do ciclo: as da investigação operacional, da filosofia, da análise de decisões e da psicologia, respetivamente. Cada um dos artigos dos conferencistas convidados foi selecionado pelo seu autor como um dos que melhor representaria a perspetiva apresentada na sua palestra. O texto de Slovic descreve a importância que o afeto tem na determinação de juízos e decisões, defendendo que a confiança depositada nesses sentimentos pode ser caracterizada como uma Heurística Afetiva. O artigo de Tsoukiàs apresenta uma visão retrospetiva sobre a evolução da teoria da decisão para uma metodologia de ajuda à decisão, considerando o autor que todas as teorias da decisão partilham uma característica comum – a utilização de linguagens formais e abstratas e de um modelo de racionalidade, defendendo uma abordagem científica para a ajuda à decisão em problemas enfrentados por indivíduos e/ou organizações. O texto de Keeney sintetiza algumas das principais ideias que preconiza para intervir em situações de decisão, neste caso em situações de definição de políticas públicas, advogando e ilustrando a importância de basear a intervenção na eliciação dos valores do público e na sua modelação através de uma função de utilidade multiatributo. O texto de Broome pretende ilustrar os moldes em que o problema de tomada de decisões pode aparecer no âmbito da Filosofia, debruçando-se sobre um tema de longo debate entre filósofos: pode um raciocínio culminar numa ação ou apenas pode culminar numa crença? Cada um destes artigos, traduzido para a língua portuguesa, é acompanhado por um comentário de um autor português, respetivamente: Armando Mónica de Oliveira, Manuel Matos, João Clímaco e António Manuel Martins. O livro inclui ainda um capítulo introdutório que oferece uma breve panorâmica das disciplinas que se entrecruzam na palavra Decisão.

Download or read book Mente e Dinheiro Desvendando a Rela o Entre Psicologia Financeira e Sa de Mental written by MAX EDITORIAL and published by Max Editorial. This book was released on 2024-09-07 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: O Papel da Psicologia Financeira A psicologia financeira é um campo multidisciplinar que explora como as emoções, pensamentos e comportamentos influenciam a forma como lidamos com o dinheiro. Ela se baseia na premissa de que a maneira como pensamos e sentimos em relação ao dinheiro pode afetar profundamente nossas decisões financeiras e, consequentemente, nossa saúde mental e bem-estar. O dinheiro, muitas vezes visto como um recurso meramente prático, é carregado de significados emocionais e psicológicos profundos. Nossas atitudes em relação ao dinheiro são moldadas por uma combinação de fatores, incluindo nossa educação, experiências passadas e crenças culturais. Esse labirinto mental pode ter um impacto significativo na forma como gerenciamos nossas finanças e enfrentamos desafios econômicos. Como as Crenças Financeiras se Desenvolvem Desde a infância, somos expostos a diversas mensagens sobre dinheiro. Essas mensagens vêm de nossos pais, professores, mídia e cultura. Por exemplo, uma criança que cresce em um ambiente onde o dinheiro é visto como fonte de estresse pode desenvolver uma visão negativa e ansiosa sobre finanças. Da mesma forma, crenças como "dinheiro é a raiz de todos os males" ou "somente pessoas ricas são felizes" podem influenciar a forma como lidamos com nossos próprios recursos financeiros. As crenças financeiras são frequentemente formadas por experiências pessoais e observações. Se alguém experimentou dificuldades financeiras em um período crítico da vida, pode desenvolver uma visão de que o dinheiro é sempre uma fonte de problema e insegurança. Essas crenças, muitas vezes, moldam nosso comportamento financeiro na vida adulta. O Impacto das Emoções nas Decisões Financeiras As emoções desempenham um papel crucial nas nossas decisões financeiras. Sentimentos de ansiedade, medo, culpa e euforia podem influenciar se gastamos, economizamos ou investimos de uma determinada maneira. Por exemplo, alguém que experimenta ansiedade financeira pode adotar um comportamento excessivamente cauteloso, evitando investimentos e economizando em excesso, o que pode limitar o crescimento financeiro e o bem-estar geral. A influência das emoções também é visível em comportamentos como compras impulsivas. Muitas vezes, usamos as compras como uma forma de lidar com o estresse ou a depressão, buscando um alívio temporário através de bens materiais. Esse tipo de comportamento pode levar a problemas financeiros a longo prazo, bem como afetar negativamente nossa saúde mental. O Efeito das Decisões Financeiras na Saúde Mental As decisões financeiras têm um impacto profundo em nossa saúde mental. A gestão inadequada do dinheiro pode resultar em estresse crônico, ansiedade e até depressão. Por outro lado, uma abordagem saudável e bem planejada em relação às finanças pode contribuir para uma sensação de segurança e controle, melhorando o bem-estar mental. Por exemplo, ter um plano financeiro sólido e metas claras pode proporcionar uma sensação de controle e reduzir a ansiedade associada à incerteza financeira. Ter uma abordagem equilibrada em relação aos gastos e economias pode criar uma base sólida para o bem-estar mental, ajudando a prevenir problemas como o estresse financeiro. Conclusão Entender o labirinto da mente financeira é essencial para melhorar tanto nossa saúde financeira quanto nossa saúde mental. A forma como pensamos e sentimos em relação ao dinheiro influencia diretamente nossas decisões e nosso bem-estar geral. Ao explorar e compreender essas dinâmicas psicológicas, podemos desenvolver estratégias mais eficazes para gerenciar nossas finanças e melhorar nossa qualidade de vida. A psicologia financeira oferece uma lente valiosa para entender essas questões e encontrar soluções para criar um equilíbrio saudável entre mente e dinheiro. Aprenda Muito Mais...

Download or read book To Err Is Human written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2000-03-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experts estimate that as many as 98,000 people die in any given year from medical errors that occur in hospitals. That's more than die from motor vehicle accidents, breast cancer, or AIDSâ€"three causes that receive far more public attention. Indeed, more people die annually from medication errors than from workplace injuries. Add the financial cost to the human tragedy, and medical error easily rises to the top ranks of urgent, widespread public problems. To Err Is Human breaks the silence that has surrounded medical errors and their consequenceâ€"but not by pointing fingers at caring health care professionals who make honest mistakes. After all, to err is human. Instead, this book sets forth a national agendaâ€"with state and local implicationsâ€"for reducing medical errors and improving patient safety through the design of a safer health system. This volume reveals the often startling statistics of medical error and the disparity between the incidence of error and public perception of it, given many patients' expectations that the medical profession always performs perfectly. A careful examination is made of how the surrounding forces of legislation, regulation, and market activity influence the quality of care provided by health care organizations and then looks at their handling of medical mistakes. Using a detailed case study, the book reviews the current understanding of why these mistakes happen. A key theme is that legitimate liability concerns discourage reporting of errorsâ€"which begs the question, "How can we learn from our mistakes?" Balancing regulatory versus market-based initiatives and public versus private efforts, the Institute of Medicine presents wide-ranging recommendations for improving patient safety, in the areas of leadership, improved data collection and analysis, and development of effective systems at the level of direct patient care. To Err Is Human asserts that the problem is not bad people in health careâ€"it is that good people are working in bad systems that need to be made safer. Comprehensive and straightforward, this book offers a clear prescription for raising the level of patient safety in American health care. It also explains how patients themselves can influence the quality of care that they receive once they check into the hospital. This book will be vitally important to federal, state, and local health policy makers and regulators, health professional licensing officials, hospital administrators, medical educators and students, health caregivers, health journalists, patient advocatesâ€"as well as patients themselves. First in a series of publications from the Quality of Health Care in America, a project initiated by the Institute of Medicine
