Abstract

É arguído, neste artigo, que o requisito mais urgente e necessário à pesquisa observacional é a criação de categorias factuais-sensitivas que descrevam detalhes das condições humanas e situacionais específicas das trocas comunicativas. É também arguído que o processo de seleção de itens simples no fluxo de eventos é regulado por teorias e interesses dos observadores. Sem um conjunto preciso de hipóteses, nenhuma categoria pode ser formulada. Entretanto, as categorias devem ser criadas através de uma intensa interação com o material observado e novas categorias, que podem descrever eventos inesperados durante as observações, devem ser permitidas. Uma vez que os registros em vídeo garantem uma preservação da situação original, uma nova e profunda abordagem para gerar categorias é proposta. Tal abordagem abandona o uso restritivo de categorias predefinidas e defende uma abertura e um processo amplo de trocas com o material antes que as abstrações e categorias sejam formuladas.

Translated abstract

In this article, it is argued that the most urgent and necessary requisite for observational research is the creation of material-sensitive categories which depict details of specific situational and human conditions of exchange. It is also argued that the process of selection of single items in the stream of events is regulated by theories and interests of the observers. Without a precise set of hypotheses, no categories can be formulated. However, categories should be created in intense interaction with the observed material and new categories which can describe unexpected events during observations should be allowed. Since video-recordings guarantee a conservation of the original situation, a new and intense approach for generating categories is proposed which abandons the restrictive use of predefined categories and argues for openness and an extensive process of exchange with the material before abstractions and categories are formulated.

Emotions and emotional communication in infants.

E Z Tronick (1989)

Important advances have recently been made in studying emotions in infants and the nature of emotional communication between infants and adults. Infant emotions and emotional communications are far more organized than previously thought. Infants display a variety of discrete affective expressions that are appropriate to the nature of events and their context. They also appreciate the emotional meaning of the affective displays of caretakers. The emotional expressions of the infant and the caretaker function to allow them to mutually regulate their interactions. Indeed, it appears that a major determinant of children's development is related to the operation of this communication system. Positive development may be associated with the experience of coordinated interactions characterized by frequent reparations of interactive errors and the transformation of negative affect into positive affect, whereas negative development appears to be associated with sustained periods of interactive failure and negative affect.
