The purpose of this paper is to report on the point of view of architecture of an interdisciplinary research on housing and social integration of people with severe mental disorder (SMD) in Brazil after deinstitutionalization. It first aims to present the need for a qualitative evaluation of the way people with SMD deal with their living spaces (house and city); then to describe the method adopted to approach people living under control – in therapeutic residential services (SRTs) proposed by the State as the only alternative model for those leaving psychiatric institutions – and people living alone – with little psychiatric assistance and no dwelling support provided by the State. It aims to conclude with a discussion of the observed dwellings pointing towards the need to accommodate differences in any housing model adopted by the State.

The qualitative evaluation enabled the focus of participant observation on the way people interact with each other and with their living space. The authors followed the routines of chosen people with SMD in three different cities in Brazil and provided reports for the whole group to analyze them.

It was found that those living in SRTs are much more obstructed by institutional control than those living alone. Despite the difficulties and fragilities of those living alone because of the lack of support, they end with more possibilities for autonomy and social integration.

Most research on the subject approaches objective housing issues focusing on statistical results. This research evaluates qualitative dwelling issues, summarizing little pointers for future health policy on housing for people with SMD.

This study aims to analyze empirically the innovation potential behavior (IPB) in organizations based on a measurement model, which includes capabilities, results and impacts of innovation. This measurement model also considers the conditions of developing and emerging industrial economies (DEIEs).

Based on the assessment of the innovation potential measurement model, an empirical adjustment of structural models: complete (CM-baseline and CM-ICT) and restricted (RM-baseline and RM-ICT), has been carried out. This process has conducted to a behavioral analysis of the determining factors of the innovation potential of organizations considering the conditions of Ecuadorian Information and communication technologies (ICT) sector as a case of DEIE.

The developed behavioral analysis establishes the relationships and influences that determine the innovation potential of the ICT sector under DEIE conditions. The results demonstrate that innovation capabilities (C1, C2, C3 and C4) influence innovation results (R1), and innovation results (R1) also influence innovation impacts (I1).

The empirical analysis of the IPB considering the conditions of DEIE offers valuable insights to innovate. It emphasizes the importance of robust innovation capabilities, structured management processes and the use of information sources to enhance innovation performance.

Few studies about innovation consider structural models and contextual conditions for the analysis of the IPB that could be applied to organizational, sectorial or territorial levels to enhance innovation management.

Analizar empíricamente el Comportamiento del Potencial de Innovación (IPB) en las organizaciones a partir de un modelo de medición, que incluye capacidades, resultados e impactos de la innovación. Este modelo de medición también considera las condiciones de las Economías en Desarrollo Industrial Emergente (DEIE).

Tomando como base la evaluación del modelo de medición del potencial de innovación, se ha realizado un ajuste empírico de los modelos estructurales: completo (CM-baseline y CM-ICT) y restringido (RM-baseline y RM-ICT). Este proceso ha conducido al análisis comportamental de los factores determinantes del potencial de innovación de las organizaciones considerando las condiciones del sector TIC ecuatoriano como un caso de las DEIE.

El análisis comportamental desarrollado establece las relaciones e influencias que determinan el potencial de innovación del sector TIC bajo condiciones de las DEIE. Los resultados demuestran que las capacidades de innovación (C1, C2, C3 y C4) influyen en los resultados de innovación (R1), y los resultados de innovación (R1) a su vez influyen en los impactos de innovación (I1).

El análisis empírico del IPB considerando las condiciones de las DEIE ofrece valiosas perspectivas para innovar. Destaca la importancia de contar con capacidades de innovación robustas, procesos de gestión estructurados y el uso de fuentes de información para mejorar el desempeño de la innovación.

Pocos estudios sobre innovación consideran modelos estructurales y condiciones contextuales para el análisis del IPB que puedan aplicarse a nivel organizacional, sectorial o territorial para mejorar la gestión de la innovación.

Analisar empiricamente o Comportamento do Potencial de Inovação (IPB) nas organizações a partir de um modelo de medição, que inclua capacidades, resultados e impactos da inovação. Este modelo de medição também considera as condições das Economias no Desenvolvimento Industrial Emergente (DEIE).

Tomando como base a avaliação do modelo de medição do potencial de inovação, foi realizado um ajuste empírico dos modelos estruturais: completo (CM-baseline e CM-ICT) e restrito (RM-baseline e RM- TIC). Este processo conduziu à análise comportamental dos fatores determinantes do potencial de inovação das organizações considerando as condições do setor TIC equatoriano como um caso do DEIE.

A análise comportamental desenvolvida estabelece as relações e influências que determinam o potencial de inovação do setor TIC sob as condições do DEIE. Os resultados demonstram que as capacidades de inovação (C1, C2, C3 e C4) influenciam os resultados de inovação (R1), e os resultados de inovação (R1) influenciam sucessivamente os impactos de inovação (I1).

A análise empírica do IPB considerando as condições do DEIE oferece perspectivas valiosas para inovar. Destaca-se a importância de contar com capacidades de inovação robustas, processos de gestão estruturados e o uso de fontes de informação para melhorar o desempenho da inovação.

Poucos estudos sobre inovação consideram modelos estruturais e condições contextuais para a análise do IPB que podem ser aplicados em nível organizacional, setorial ou territorial para melhorar a gestão da inovação.
