The general objectives are to explain aspects of anaphoric referential cohesion processing in Brazilian Portuguese, observing this process in adults with and without ADHD, and to investigate possible differences in relation to individuals with typical development. Specifically, the objectives are to characterize linguistic and cognitive aspects of ADHD with regard to coreferential processing; to contribute to studies that interrelate disorders that affect language with linguistic processing; and to provide evidence that can support the development of pedagogical or clinical interventions for individuals with ADHD. We also aim to explain whether online processing is affected by the different types of cohesion: explicit, implicit, and broken, and whether the types of anaphora (repeated noun, pronoun, and hypernym) have different processing costs. A sample of 32 participants voluntarily participated in this experiment: 16 adults with a medical diagnosis of ADHD and 16 adults with typical neurodevelopment, aged 18 or older, who met the inclusion criteria and were pursuing at least a bachelor's degree. A self-paced reading experiment was conducted to analyze the processing of anaphoric coreferential cohesion in paragraphs and the types of cohesion. The data showed no significant differences between the groups with and without ADHD. A statistically significant effect was observed in both groups regarding the different types of cohesion (explicit, implicit, and broken) and the different types of anaphora (pronoun, repeated noun, and hyperonymy), indicating more costly processing of implicit cohesion, when the subject requires inference to reach the antecedent, and less demanding processing of pronoun coreference. Therefore, it can be concluded that there are different processing costs for the different types of cohesion, especially implicit cohesion, in individuals with and without ADHD, when compared with each other and in the type of task proposed here. However, ADHD does not appear to present greater processing difficulties. Further studies need to be conducted with a larger sample, including testing of executive functions, controlling medication use by the clinical group, and considering the reading habits of both groups.

Gradually, the child appropriates the traces of culture through his action on the world and the relations with objects and with the other. Children with atypical development may be slow to communicate through oral language, or may not be able to develop it, featuring less than expected language performance. Thus, understanding how this process of language acquisition and development occurs is fundamental for social relations in children. Children with Zika Virus Congenital Syndrome (ZIKV) are known to have neuropsychomotor developmental delay, and in view of this fact, studies are needed to analyze the language acquisition process of this population to provide intervention subsidies, whether family or through the development of resources and strategies sensitive to this complex path of language appropriation. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate the initial linguistic performance of ten children with Microcephaly secondary to ZIKV Congenital Syndrome. For this, a quantitative evaluation was carried out through the Early Language Milestone Scale (ELM), which contains three language milestones: expressive auditory function (AE), receptive auditory function (AR) and visual function (V). This scale is a concise language assessment tool capable of detecting changes in the first three years of life. Its application followed the direct test (T) conduct of the child; incidental observation of the behavior in question (O) and / or parent report (H). A vertical line was plotted on the chronological age of each child, and then all items crossing that line were checked in each of the three AR, AE, V functions to determine the ceiling and base levels. The three items of success and failure in each of the functions were then identified. At the end of the test, the age of performance of each function (AE, AR and V) was obtained. Regardless of the chronological age, 100% of the children presented impairment in the auditory area expressive, auditory receptive and visual, characterizing performance below expectations. In the face of the challenges related to the communication of the child with Microcephaly secondary to Congenital Syndrome of the ZIKV and of the little literature still existing that approach this subject, it reinforces its importance, because it is through communication that the other will relate to the child, the sense of words and building effective communication.

The work defends the thesis that a dialogic-discursive approach to the film genre makes it possible to understand the statements in a perspective that emphasizes the inseparable relationship between discourse in life and discourse in art, as found in the writings of the Bakhtin Circle. In this way, the question-problem that conducted the research was: How the discourse in life and the discourse in art are established in the filmic narrative Resurrection, revealing aspects related to the uniqueness of the filmic text in question, to the dialogic relations established in it and to the evaluative movements of nominations to the figure of Christ by the character Clavius? To answer this question, its objectives were listed in: General – to analyze, dialogically, the relationship between the discourse in life and in art in the narrative about the death and resurrection of Christ in the filmic text Resurrection; and Specific – defending the singularity in the discursive angle of Reynolds' film narrative (2016); to investigate dialogical relationships entangled in the discursive threads between the biblical text and the filmic text Resurrection; and to analyze the evaluative movements about Jesus Christ accentuated, chronotopically, by the soldier Clavius. With regard to the methodological aspect, the analytical ambience was orchestrated from the sociological method, promulgated by the Bakhtin Circle, and, as the corpus of the research, the film Resurrection released in 2016, on a worldwide scale, by the North American director Kevin Reynolds was chosen. . Regarding the results of the research, the analysis provided an opportunity to understand that reading the filmic discourse, from the perspective of the sociological method, corresponds to the intersection of linguistic materiality and imagery content, considering the verbo-ideological and concrete life of the utterances. Thus, the perception that Resurrection is configured as a narrative that is characterized by having a filmic discourse of a singular character, pregnant with unique accents, is highlighted by summoning, through dialogicities entangled in the discursive thread of the biblical text, semiotic acts amalgamated with aspects that, in a dialogical-discursive way, frame the artistic scenario of Reynolds' film (2016). In this scenario, the analytical movement clarified the filmic discourse as an enunciative activity, dialogic in nature, steeped in unique axiologies and points of view. This understanding made it possible to comprehend dialogical strategies, of an imagery-discursive nature, as concrete statements chronotopically situated, viscerally bathed in art and social life.; RÉSUMÉ La présente thèse de doctorat, ancrée dans les exigences de la Théorie dialogique du langage, promulguée par le Cercle Bakhtine, consiste à réfléchir sur la lecture du discours religieux chrétien, matérialisé par le texte filmique conçu comme un genre dialogique-discursif, encadré dans le sens de construire un projet de dire énonciatif qui proclame le Christ comme le Messie Sauveur du monde, à la lumière d'un, jusque-là, incroyant - soldat de l'empire romain Clavius. L'ouvrage défend la thèse selon laquelle une approche dialogique- discursive du genre physique permet d'appréhender les énoncés dans une perspective qui met l'accent sur le rapport inséparable entre discours dans la vie et discours dans l'art, tel qu'on le retrouve dans les écrits du Cercle Bakhtine. Ainsi, la question-problème qui a guidé la recherche était : Comment le discours dans la vie et le discours dans l'art sont-ils établis dans le récit filmique en termes de valeurs de nominations à la figure du Christ par le personnage Clavius ? Pour répondre à cette question, ses objectifs ont été listés dans Général – analyser, de manière dialogique, la relation entre le discours dans la vie et dans l'art dans le récit sur la mort et la résurrection du Christ dans le texte filmique Resurreição ; et Spécifique – défendre la singularité dans l'angle discursif du récit cinématographique de Reynolds (2016) ; enquêter sur les relations dialogiques enchevêtrées dans les fils discursifs entre le texte biblique et le texte filmique Résurrection ; et d'analyser les mouvements évaluatifs sur Jésus-Christ accentués, chronotopiquement, par le soldat Clavius. En ce qui concerne l'aspect méthodologique, l'ambiance analytique a été orchestrée à partir de la méthode sociologique, promulguée par le Cercle Bakhtine, et, comme corpus de la recherche, le film Resurrection sorti en 2016, à l'échelle mondiale, du réalisateur nord-américain Kevin Reynolds a été choisi. . En ce qui concerne les résultats de la recherche, l'analyse a permis de comprendre que la lecture du discours filmique, du point de vue de la méthode sociologique, correspond à l'intersection de la matérialité linguistique et du contenu imagé, compte tenu de la vie verbo-idéologique et concrète des énoncés. . Ainsi, la perception que Ressurreição est configurée comme un récit qui se caractérise par un discours filmique d'un caractère singulier, riche d'accents uniques, est mise en évidence en convoquant, à travers des dialogicités enchevêtrées dans le fil discursif du texte biblique, des actes sémiotiques amalgamés avec aspects qui, de manière dialogique- discursive, encadrent le scénario artistique du film de Reynolds (2016). Dans ce scénario, le mouvement analytique a précisé le discours filmique comme une activité énonciative, de nature dialogique, imprégnée d'axiologies et de points de vue singuliers. Cette compréhension a permis de concevoir des stratégies dialogiques, de nature imagerie-discursive, comme des énoncés concrets situés chronologiquement, baignés viscéralement dans l'art et la vie sociale.

The study is grounded in the theoretical framework of Communication Accommodation Theory (Giles et al., 1991) and the principles of Variationist Sociolinguistics (Labov, 1966, 2008 [1972]). The general objective is to understand how the process of language accommodation develops over time, considering both linguistic and extralinguistic variables, with special attention to speakers’ language attitudes and identity. The corpus consists of seven participants (three from Recife and four from São Paulo), whose speech were recorded in six different moments over a two-year period, granting the study a longitudinal character that has not yet been explored in studies on dialectal accommodation in Brazil. The analysis combines a quantitative approach, using the Goldvarb X software (Sankoff, Tagliamonte & Smith, 2005), with qualitative intra- and interindividual analysis focused on the participants’ accommodation trajectories. The results show that language accommodation is not a linear process. Factors such as length of exposure, attitudes that regulate sociolinguistic judgments, and identity positions modulate both the degree and pace of evolution of the language accommodation process. This thesis thus contributes to the deepening of discussions on language accommodation, identity, and language attitudes in the context of dialectal contact between varieties of Brazilian Portuguese.
