It is a rural festival, takes place on or around June 23 and has a transitory year. The organizational work is unpaid and the food fresh and served in the last days are free. All the rituals, expenses and the work is carried out collectively by the communities living in these areas. The feast of St. John the Baptist began, according to respondents, for the payment of a promise made to the local stream to get water back in his bed. In this context the question is: What and how the factors and / or cultural events (re) configure the territory of the annual feast of St. John the Baptist? What's "live" a festive area so different from the commonly experienced in other parties in the news? What is the role of myth, tradition, rituals, "places of memory" of social networks and everyday life in the (re) configuration of the party? To answer these questions, we resort to sociology, anthropology, geography, among others. In science, we seek to expand knowledge about the categories territory, place and party, built on a concept of social networks and everyday to understand the cultural events of the feast of St. John the Baptist. For this, the methodological techniques used were subsidized by the human sciences such as participant observation, interviews, informal conversations, wheels conversations with the faithful participants, photos, folders and theoretical and methodological review. To analyze the seat, planning and social networks on the feast of St. John the Baptist were found to several authors: Paul Claval (1999, 2001), Bonnemaison (2002), Duvignaud (1983), Satyr Maia (2003), mozza (2006 ), Barcellos (1995), Serpa (2005), Haesbaert (2006, 2007), Brandão (2004), Almeida (2003, 2005), Person (2005), DaMatta (1997), Canclini (2003), Massey (2000) , Rosendahl (2003), among others. The results underscore the importance of social networks and daily maintenance on the territory of the feast of St. John the Baptist. Emphasize the strength of rural communities, as well as their identities managed from a base in common, dealing with the permanent nature. Furthermore, the results reinforce the existence of several other factors like the 'places of memory ", the" geossímbolos ", the" temporary ", the sacred ritual / secular, the strength of the festive tradition, the transformations (re) means the territory the feast of St. John the Baptist. The above elements are part of the (re) configuration of this territory festive, with each person, entwined in the (re) training of the web often the feast of St. John the Baptist. Finally, invigorates the idea that the border of this area is festive in men who have the identity, which directly influences to celebrate, see and experience the feast of St. John the Baptist. / A festa de São João Batista estudada acontece anualmente entre o município de Heitoraí-GO e o distrito de Uruíta-Uruana-GO. É uma festa rural, ocorre por volta do dia 23 de junho e possui caráter transitório anual. O trabalho de organização não é remunerado e a comida e doce servidos no último dia são gratuitos. Todos os rituais, despesas e o próprio trabalho são realizados coletivamente pelas comunidades residentes em tais áreas. A festa de São João Batista iniciou-se, segundo entrevistados, para o pagamento de uma promessa feita para o córrego local voltar a ter água no seu leito. Neste contexto, indaga-se: Quais e como os fatores e/ou manifestações socioculturais (re)configuram anualmente o território da festa de São João Batista? O que mantêm vivo um território festivo tão diferente dos comumente vividos em outras festas na atualidade? Qual o papel dos mitos, tradição, rituais, lugares de memória , das redes sociais e do cotidiano na (re)configuração da festa? Para responder a estes questionamentos, recorre-se à sociologia, a antropologia, a geografia, entre outras. Nestas ciências, busca-se ampliar o conhecimento sobre as categorias território, lugar e festa, embasadas no conceito de redes sociais e cotidiano, para se compreender as manifestações culturais da festa de São João Batista. Para tanto, as técnicas metodológicas utilizadas foram subsidiadas pelas ciências humanas como: observação-participante, entrevistas, conversas informais, rodas de conversas com os fiéis-participantes, fotos, folders e revisão teórico-metodológica. Para a análise dos lugares, do território e das redes sociais na festa de São João Batista vários autores foram referenciados: Paul Claval (1999, 2001), Bonnemaison (2002), Duvignaud (1983), Satyro Maia (2003), Chianca (2006), Barcellos (1995), Serpa (2005), Haesbaert (2006, 2007), Brandão (2004), Almeida (2003; 2005), Pessoa (2005), DaMatta (1997), Canclini (2003), Massey (2000), Rosendahl (2003), entre outros. Os resultados ressaltam a importância das redes sociais e do cotidiano na manutenção atual do território da festa de São João Batista. Enfatizam a força das comunidades rurais, bem como, de suas identidades geridas a partir de uma base em comum, a lida permanente com a natureza. Também os resultados reforçam a existência de vários outros fatores como os lugares de memória , os geossímbolos , os lugares temporários , os rituais sagrados/profanos, a força da tradição festiva, as transformações que (re)significam o território da festa de São João Batista. Os elementos destacados acima fazem parte da (re)configuração deste território festivo, estando, cada qual, entrelaçado na (re)formação frequente da teia da festa de São João Batista. Enfim, tonifica a idéia de que a fronteira deste território festivo está nos homens, na identidade que possuem, a qual influencia diretamente no sentido de festejar, perceber e viver a festa de São João Batista.

Anxiety is one of the most studied research topics in sport psychology literature (Guillen & Sanchez, 2009); however, even though the Olympics are considered to be one of the most pressure-filled sporting events (Birrer, Wetzel, Schmidt, & Morgan, 2012), to date there has been no research aimed specifically at investigating Olympic athletes’ competitive state anxiety and its impact on subsequent performance. Furthermore, according to Nesti (2011), in order to support athletes in dealing with their experience of anxiety, researchers must turn towards the phenomenological, real-lived experience of the athlete to uncover what might best support positive anxiety management and interpretation in competition. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to respond to the gap in Olympic athlete anxiety research by examining the phenomenological experience of competitive state anxiety for female beach volleyball players at the 2012 London Olympics. Six in-depth, phenomenological interviews were conducted with these Olympic female beach volleyball players. Results indicated that, while all athletes in this study experienced anxiety at the 2012 Olympics, it was not the reduced intensity of anxiety that positively impacted their performance but rather the athletes’ ability to recognize, manage, and positively interpret their anxiety. In addition, it was shown that self-confidence further buffered the potentially negative impacts of anxiety. It is recommended that future research focus on extending phenomenological anxiety research to other sports and genders, and to specifically examine the impact of trait anxiety, team dynamics, and the experience of flow on athletes’ anxiety interpretation.

This research intended to explore and describe a self-injuring adolescent girl‘s experiences of using graphic symbolic analogue drawings as an alternative coping skill for emotional expression and a creative adjustment with regard to her problems. This study investigated concepts/themes from literature, regarding the phenomenon of self-injuring in adolescents; and explored theoretical aspects of the use of art/analogue drawing as part of a Gestalt therapeutic process. Data was collected by means of semi-structured interviews before and after the therapeutic drawing interventions, by observation and feedback from the participant. Data was analysed and interpreted against the background of the participant‘s problems, focusing on themes described in literature and experiential moments of awareness/reframing. Conclusions and recommendations are made; indicating shortcomings as well. This research may contribute to the knowledge base with regard to drawing techniques as alternative therapeutic intervention and also the value thereof for finding of immediate emotional release for patients. / Hierdie navorsing het beoog om ‗n selfbeserende adolessente meisie se ervaring van die gebruik van grafiese, simboliese analogiese-tekeninge as hanteringsvaardigheid vir uitdrukking van emosionele probleme en alternatiewe kreatiewe aanpassingstegniek te ondersoek en te beskryf. Die studie het konsepte/temas oor die fenomeen van selfbeserende gedrag by adolessente in die literatuur; asook teoretiese aspekte in die gebruik van kuns/analogiese-tekeninge as deel van ‗n Gestaltterapeutiese proses ondersoek. Data is versamel by wyse van semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude voor en na die tekenintervensies, deur observasies en ook terugvoer vanaf die deelnemer. Data is geanaliseer en geïnterpreteer teen die agtergrond van die deelnemer se persoonlike probleme met die fokus op temas in die literatuur en momente van eksperiële bewuswording en herformulering. Gevolgtrekkinge en aanbevelings is gemaak; insluitend tekortkominge in die studie. Die navorsing mag bydra tot die bestaande kennisbasis met betrekking tot teken-tegnieke as alternatiewe intervensies en ook die waarde daarvan vir onmiddellike emosionele verligting vir pasiënte. / Social Science / M.
