Transtornos da Personalidade - 2.ed.

Se a definição e o entendimento do que é personalidade no ser humano são ainda muito parciais, estudar o que chamamos de transtornos da personalidade nos remete a terrenos ainda mais pantanosos - transtorno da personalidade como termo, como modo patológico de ser ou comportar-se ou como conceito tem uma longa e tortuosa história na psiquiatria.

Mechanisms Underpinning the Link between Emotion, Physical Health and Longevity

Mechanisms Underpinning the Link between Emotion, Physical Health and Longevity

The 1990’s was designated as ‘the decade of the brain’ and now, common mental disorders are described as ‘brain disorders’. Yet intense research interest on the brain has largely side-lined the body as a passive observer, disconnecting mental from physical health and contributing to further societal stigma on the nature of psychiatric illness and mental distress. The biopsychosocial pathway to premature mortality or longevity is a complex one, involving a host of closely intertwined mechanisms and moderating factors, some of which are investigated in this special issue. All the articles published here provide new insights into the pathways linking emotion, physical health and longevity, highlighting the tight linkage between mind, brain and body.

Item Response Theory

In the decade of the 1970s, item response theory became the dominant topic for study by measurement specialists. But, the genesis of item response theory (IRT) can be traced back to the mid-thirties and early forties. In fact, the term "Item Characteristic Curve," which is one of the main IRT concepts, can be attributed to Ledyard Tucker in 1946. Despite these early research efforts, interest in item response theory lay dormant until the late 1960s and took a backseat to the emerging development of strong true score theory. While true score theory developed rapidly and drew the attention of leading psychometricians, the problems and weaknesses inherent in its formulation began to raise conce...
