ABSTRACT
Resumen La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo caracterizar el perfil neurocognitivo de niños en relación con las habilidades cuantitativas, intelectuales, de memoria operativa y sus aspectos emocionales. La muestra fue de 42 niños de edad escolar de 8 a 10 años, divididos en dos grupos: con dificultades en aritmética (CDA = 21) y sin dificultades en aritmética (SDA = 21), que fueron evaluados a través de pruebas cognitivas y escalas de comportamiento, que analizaron variables como: rendimiento escolar, razonamiento abstracto, memoria operativa, cognición numérica, ansiedad y estrés. El perfil de los niños CDA se caracterizó por dificultades en el rendimiento escolar de forma general. Se encontraron síntomas de estrés compatibles con fases de alerta y resistencia, baja capacidad de memoria operativa y de cognición numérica, específicamente de procesamiento numérico y cálculo.
Abstract This study aimed to characterize the neurocognitive profile of children regarding quantitative, intellectual, and mnemonic skills; and their emotional state. The sample consisted of 42 school children 8-10 years old, divided into two groups: those with difficulties in arithmetic (CDA = 21) and without difficulties in arithmetic (SDA = 21). The children were evaluated through cognitive tests and behaviour scales, which analysed variables such as scholar achievement, abstract reasoning, working memory, numerical cognition, anxiety and stress. The profile of CDA children was characterized by global difficulties in schooling achievement. Also they had stress symptoms compatible with alert and resistance phases, low capacity in working memory and numerical cognition, specifically for numerical processing and calculation.

O texto tece considerações sobre o conflito trabalho-família, elaborado após revisão narrativa. Foram acessados 18 artigos, publicados entre 2010 e 2015, na base de dados Scielo, utilizando-se os descritores "trabalho", "família" e "conflito" e seis dos artigos trataram do tema central. O estudo revela que, embora ainda em pouca quantidade e aprofundamento, há importantes discussões teóricas e intervenções relacionadas ao conflito no Brasil, sendo que parte destas aborda a desigualdade de gênero e o fator tempo como entraves frequentes ao equilíbrio trabalho-família. A revisão dos papéis de gênero presentes na sociedade atual é necessária, sobretudo considerando que as mulheres ganham mais espaço em cargos de gestão, que as organizações atuam cada vez mais em ambientes instáveis e competitivos e que as condições econômicas geram pressão sobre as famílias para buscarem novas fontes de renda, sem a divisão de tarefas domésticas necessárias à permanência da mulher no mercado de trabalho.(AU)
This text makes considerations about work-family conflict and it was elaborated after a narrative review. Eighteen articles published between 2010 and 2015 were accessed in Scielo database. Descriptors "work", "family" and "conflict" were used, and six of these articles treated about the main issue. Study reveals that, even though a small amount and deepening, there are relevant theoretical discussions and interventions related to this referred conflict in Brazil, and a part of them treats genre inequality and time factor as frequent constraints to work-family balance. Review of current genre roles in contemporary society is necessary mainly because women have been achieving more space in management positions, organizations increasingly have acted in an unstable and competitive environment and the economic conditions have generated more pressure over families, in order to they obtain new income sources, without a division of necessary household tasks for the woman's stay in the labour market.(AU)
