Abstract(s)
Com este estudo pretende-se analisar a natureza da relação entre as variáveis Resiliência e Impulsividade, assim como estudar as diferenças entre amostras clínica e da população geral, considerando também as variáveis stresse percebido e estratégias de coping. Pretende-se, assim, adquirir uma melhor compreensão da natureza, significado e relevância destas variáveis, na população geral (relevância na saúde mental) e em populações clínicas (relevância na perturbação) tendo em vista ganharem um foco maior em terapia, promovendo a saúde mental da população clínica. Os dados foram recolhidos através da Escala de Resiliência de Connor-Davidson (CD-RISC), da Escala de Impulsividade de Barratt (BIS-11), da Escala de Stresse Percecionado (PSS-10), e da Escala Brief COPE, tendo por base uma amostra de 377 adultos dividida entre amostra clínica, com 84 participantes, e amostra não-clínica, com 293.
Os resultados sugeriram que o stresse percebido e as estratégias de coping detêm um valor preditivo sobre a resiliência e a impulsividade, apontando também para níveis inferiores de resiliência e níveis superiores de impulsividade e stresse percebido, na amostra clínica. O modelo de mediação sequencial proposto foi suportado pelos resultados, destacando a importância do desenvolvimento de estratégias de coping adequadas ao controlo do stresse, de modo a minimizar a impulsividade dos indivíduos e promover a sua resiliência.
The present study aimed to explore the nature of the relationship between resilience and impulsivity, as well as to study the differences between participants with and without any mental disorder, considering also the perceived stress and coping strategies variables. In achieving a better understanding of the nature, significance and relevance of these variables, in the general population and in the clinical population these variables may become a greater focus on psychotherapy, promoting the mental health of the clinical population. The data was collected through the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC), the Barratt Impulsivity Scale (BIS-11), the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10), and the Brief COPE Scale, on a sample of 377 adults divided into a clinical sample, with 84 participants, and a non-clinical sample, with 293 participants. The results suggest that perceived stress and coping strategies have a predictive value on resilience and impulsivity, as well as lower levels of resilience and higher levels of perceived impulsivity and stress in the clinical sample. The proposed sequential mediation model, highlighting the importance of developing appropriate coping strategies for stress management, in order to minimize the effects of individuals’ impulsitvity and promote their resilience, was also supported by these results.
