Hang the DJ: No hay DJ del DJ / Hang the DJ There is no DJ of the DJ

La premisa de "Hang the DJ" es bastante simple: las personas prefieren que un sistema de software decida por ellas. Es más fácil que Otro decida y solamente obedecer, eso quita la responsabilidad y la duda de haber realizado la opción correcta. La eterna, insidiosa, asfixiante duda se diluye, en la medida que no hay que decidir. La vida se torna una sumisa obediencia a los mandatos de un Otro sabio. Pero en cuestiones del amor, no hay saber que se sustente y este será el eje en el que se centre nuestro análisis

The premise of "Hang the DJ" is quite simple: people prefer that a software system decides for them. It is easier for Another to decide and only obey, that removes the responsibility and doubt of having made the right choice. The eternal, insidious, suffocating doubt is diluted, to the extent that there is no need to decide. Life becomes a submissive obedience to the commands of a wise Other. But in matters of love, there is no knowing that it is sustained and this will be the axis on which our analysis is centered

El teatro guiñol, la televisión mexicana y la educación para la salud a mediados del siglo XX / Puppet shows, Mexican television and health education in the mid-twentieth century

Resumen Este artículo rescata la obra de teatro guiñol Las calenturas de Don Ferruco, televisada a finales de la década de 1950 para promover la erradicación del paludismo en México como un útil instrumento de educación para la salud. Se analiza cómo la difusión del teatro guiñol educativo en la televisión mexicana evidenció la necesidad de mantener vigente la enseñanza dirigida a prevenir enfermedades y se subraya la importancia de la televisión como una producción educativa para promover la salud hacia mediados del siglo XX. El artículo muestra los inicios de su uso como una herramienta de especial importancia para lo que posteriormente sería la masificación de los discursos emitidos por la Secretaría de Salubridad y Asistencia.

This article resurrects the puppet show Las calenturas de Don Ferruco (Don Ferruco’s Fevers), which was televised in the late 1950s in order to help eradicate malaria in Mexico, as a useful instrument for health education. It analyzes how the spread of educational puppet shows on Mexican television showed the need to keep updating preventive healthcare pedagogy and it underlines the importance of television as an educational health-promotion production in the mid-twentieth century. The article discusses the early use of puppet shows as an especially important tool for what would later become mass-media transmission of discourses from the Secretaría de Salubridad y Asistencia (Department of Health and Healthcare).

Comportamento agressivo em shows musicais: analisando notícias de jornal impresso / Aggressive behavior in music shows: analyzing newspaper articles / Comportamiento agresivo en los espectáculos musicales: análisis de noticias de diario

Neste artigo relata-se uma análise de conteúdo das notícias sobre comportamento agressivo em shows musicais veiculadas em jornal Correio Braziliense, Brasília, DF. Esta análise permite entender comportamentos agressivos em shows, quais as características destas situações e como a mídia impressa tratou o assunto. A despeito da influência dos jornais na formação de opiniões públicas, transmissão de atitudes e repertórios comportamentais, evidenciou-se que este tipo de análise ainda é escasso na literatura da psicologia social brasileira. Com o objetivo, portanto, de contribuir com a área realizou-se esta pesquisa exploratória com 31 artigos de jornal. Os resultados da análise de conteúdo apontam que os comportamentos agressivos aconteceram em shows dos mais diversos estilos musicais. Com base na teoria social cognitiva e pesquisas prévias sobre a análise de jornais discutimos os principais resultados.

This paper reports a content analysis of the newspaper articles dealing with aggressive behavior in music shows. This analysis permits an understanding of the characteristics of these situations, the aggressive behaviors in shows, and the way in which the print media treat the subject. Despite of the newspapers' influence on public opinion formation, that is, the transmission of attitudes and behavior repertoires, this kind of analysis is rarely reported in Brazilian social psychological literature. Some 31 newspaper articles were content analyzed as to aggressive behavior during music shows. Results indicate that aggressive behaviors occur in shows of most varied musical styles. Results are discussed on the basis of social cognitive theory.

En este artículo se presenta un análisis de contenido de las noticias de diario sobre el comportamiento agresivo en los espectáculos musicales de difusión en diario Correio Braziliense, Brasília, DF. Este análisis nos permite comprender el comportamiento agresivo en los conciertos, ¿qué características de estas situaciones y cómo fueram tratados pelos medios impreso?. A pesar de la influencia de los periódicos en la conformación de la opinión pública, la transmisión de actitudes y de los repertorios de conducta, se hizo evidente que este tipo de análisis es todavía escasa en la literatura de la psicología social en Brasil. Con el fin de contribuir con este ámbito de estudios se llevó a cabo esta investigación exploratoria, con 31 artículos de prensa. Los resultados del análisis de contenido muestran que el comportamiento agresivo no se dio en la muestra de diferentes estilos musicales. Basado en la teoría social cognitiva y la investigación previa sobre el análisis de los periódicos se analiza los principales resultados.

Standard coaxial phaco vs. microincision cataract surgery: a corneal endothelium study / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

AIM: To assess whether the new microincision cataract surgery (MICS) induces less endothelium damages than the standard coaxial phacoemulsification.METHODS: Two hundred consecutive patients affected by age-related cataract were randomly assigned to undergo phacoemulsification using either standard coaxial phaco (SCP) or MICS. Central cornea and 12 o'clock endothelial cell count,cell size variation coefficient, percentage of hexagonality and central cornea thickness were measured before and up to one year after surgery.RESULTS: One hundred and seventy-three patients completed the trial. At the one-year follow-up visit, the loss of endothelium cells was 6.5204% in the MICS group and 8.726% in the SCP group (P＜0.00005). There was no significant differences between the two groups in terms of coefficient of variation in cell size, percentage of hexagonal cells,corneal thickness the day after surgery and variation of endothelial cell density measured both at the incision site and at the central cornea. In patients with hard cataracts, the increase in endothelial cell density loss was higher independently of the procedure.CONCLUSION: MICS induced a significant lower endothelial cell density loss than SCP.

Reality-shows, exclusão social e instantaneidade: os riscos do esquecimento / Reality-shows, social exclusion and instantaneity: the risks of forgetfulness

Este artigo se propõe investigar - a partir de um dos ícones da cultura de massa contemporânea, os reality shows - as relações entre a violência, o imperativo do prazer imediato e a exclusão social, tão intensa quanto o sucesso desses programas de televisão. Analisaremos o contexto da emergência dos reality shows a partir de dois imaginários sociais que representam duas formas de estar no mundo atual: o imaginário da excelência e o da inutilidade. Indicaremos também como uma espécie de infantilização universal se relaciona com o risco de esquecimento coletivo da História que o foco no presente imediato e a sociedade do espetáculo auxiliam a reforçar.

Having as point of departure one of the icons of contemporary mass culture,the reality shows, this essay aims at investigating the connections betweenviolence, the demand of immediate pleasure and social exclusion, which isas intense as these TV programs are successful. We will analyse the contextof the emergence of the reality shows, considering the two social represen-tations available nowadays: the social representation of excellence and thesocial representation of uselessness. We will also indicate how a sort ofuniversal infantilism is related to the risk of the collective forgetfulness ofHistory which both the focus on the immediate pleasure and the entertain-ment society help to consolidate
