1. Intelligence in Psychology

Intelligence is one of the first objects of study in psychology. Its definition and complexity are still debated, and it remains a multidisciplinary research topic.

Classic Theories

• Galton applied innate methodology and statistics to intelligence.
• Spearman proposed a two-factor theory and used factor analysis. He identified a general factor (g) and specific abilities.
• Thurstone identified seven primary mental abilities: verbal comprehension, verbal fluency, numerical ability, memory, perceptual speed, spatial visualization and inductive reasoning.
• Guilford proposed a three-dimensional model of intelligence: operations (mental processes), contents (types of information) and products (the form the information takes). He

Plant Tissues

Parenchyma

Parenchyma cells make photosynthesis in the stems and green parts of plants. Varieties: palisade and spongy.

Cambium and Cork Cambium

Both are secondary meristems. The internal cambium and the vascular cambium produce conducting tissues: towards the center, xylem (secondary xylem); outwards, phloem (secondary phloem). The cork cambium produces external cork tissue and the internal phelloderm, which travel towards the parenchyma cortex.

Collenchyma

Collenchyma cells are found in young parts of plants. They are vivid, elongated, prismatic cells containing chloroplasts, with thickened walls in layers. There are 3 types: angular, lamellar and lacunar.

Secretory Tissues

External

Located in the epidermis, they expel foreign substances....

Aprendizagem Motora e Desenvolvimento Humano

Profissionais do movimento devem compreender a aprendizagem como uma interação entre o professor e o aprendiz, necessária para entender:

• Estabelecimento de metas: transferência da aprendizagem.
• Motivação: intensidade de direção e persistência de uma pessoa para alcançar uma meta de desempenho.
• Desenvolvimento motor: é o estudo das mudanças no comportamento motor que ocorrem no ser humano durante as diversas fases da vida.

Componentes do Desenvolvimento Motor

O desenvolvimento motor possui seis componentes:

• Qualitativo: envolve a observação ou o padrão de movimento.
• Sequencial: implica que padrões motores ocorrem em uma ordem previsível.
• Cumulativo: os comportamentos motores são aditivos.

Athlete's Foot: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatments

Athlete's foot is a fungal infection that causes lesions in the folds and the soles of the feet.

Causes of Infection

One cause is wearing shoes or clothing of other people who are affected. In severe cases, cracks occur between the toes. Infection often occurs by walking on the grass of public places. Chronic cases can affect the nails and the whole sole of the foot.

Common Symptoms

Symptoms include itching between the toes, a stronger smell, blistering, and serious skin irritation.

Treatment Options

Treatment involves antifungal drugs in the form of creams and powders. In extreme cases, a doctor may prescribe oral drugs.

The Importance of Relaxation for Health

Relaxation is one of the best means that...

The Importance of Warming Up

Warming up is defined as preparatory activities aimed at activating the functional systems of the organism and preparing it for the subsequent application of more demanding loads.

Physiological Objectives

• Increase the temperature inside the muscle.
• Improve metabolic processes; organs of the body can produce energy more easily with the increase in temperature.
• Decrease muscle viscosity. The components of muscle coated with liquid at rest become less viscous when the muscle is heated.
• Increase the elasticity of muscle fibers.
• Increase enzyme activity.
• Increase vascularization (increased number of vessels supplying the muscle and greater blood flow), which achieves:
  • Improved oxygen supply.
  • Improved supply of nutrients.
• Facilitate

Linguistic Signs

Signs perceive realities. There are different types of signs used in the formation of messages in one language:

• Denotation: Collects the primary objective of a linguistic sign. It is formed by features that differ from one another concept.
• Connotation: Connotation signs bring together feelings, ideas, and cultural aspects.

Communication Functions

• Referential or representational: Reports on a target without expressing feelings or trying to provoke a reaction in the recipient.
• Emotive or expressive: Used for the expression of feelings and experiences.

Muscle Dysmorphia and Exercise Addiction

Muscle dysmorphia, also known as exercise addiction or vigorexia, is a disorder in which individuals engage in physical activity with almost religious fanaticism, often testing their bodies regardless of the consequences. We find those who seek a "perfect" figure influenced by societal models, as well as athletes who push their bodies to the limit to reach their goals.

Exercise addicts often train regardless of weather conditions, physical discomfort, or illness. They may experience anger and guilt when unable to train or when their activity is criticized. Most cannot miss a day at the gym, where they spend many hours, making it their second home.

These individuals often exhibit a distinctive personality...
