O rompimento da barragem de Fundão, pertencente à empresa Samarco, em cinco de novembro de 2015, marcou um dos piores desastres socioambientais do Brasil. O colapso devastou a bacia do rio Doce e comunidades como Paracatu de Baixo, Mariana, MG. O local tornou-se símbolo de reivindicações por indenizações e preservação de seu patrimônio cultural. Esta pesquisa busca refletir como Paracatu de Baixo, hoje composto...
This study examines the capabilities that enhance firms' export performance, emphasizing the multidimensional nature of export-oriented competencies. It develops and validates a 27-item scale to measure four key capability dimensions: dynamic capabilities, technological capabilities, marketing capabilities, and entrepreneurial orientation. The items used to measure the capabilities of exporting companies were a...
Research on comparative biases has long shown a better-than-average effect—whereby people tend to believe themselves to be better than the average other person—as well as a tendency to judge individuals more favorably than groups. Whereas self-other differences have been extensively studied, less is known about individual-collective differences: what features of others best predict when asymmetries occur, what ...

Recent research has explored cue competition phenomena in social learning. In particular, blocking effects have been observed in the way people learn to infer someone’s internal states from their behavioral cues: When people learn to associate a certain behavior with a certain internal state, this blocks their learning of subsequent behavioral cues that also predict the same state, when those cues are presented...
In the literature on learning, one of the most robust cue competition effects is blocking: the previous learning of a cue-outcome association prevents learning that other cues predict the same outcome if those cues are presented together with the first cue. In this research, we investigated blocking effects in mental state inference. Participants learned to diagnose the internal states of a target person based ...
When it comes to the study of stereotypes, plenty of material can be of use. While personality traits tend to be the most commonly adopted, behavioral information can also be relevant, both in the study of stereotypes, as well as in other research fields (e.g., illusory correlations, memory and judgement and decision making). The purpose of this paper was to create a readily available list of behavioral sentenc...
