A Atitude Mental dos pais e a forma como percecionam os obstáculos influenciam
as suas práticas parentais bem como a perceção que as crianças têm sobre elas próprias
(Dweck, 2021). A pandemia por COVID-19 obrigou a passagem das aulas para formato
on-line e foi exigido aos pais que assumissem papéis pedagógicos importantes para apoiar
a educação dos seus filhos. Assim sendo, o objetivo geral deste estudo consiste na
compreensão da atitude mental dos pais, bem como das suas perceções sobre o impacto
da pandemia por COVID-19 na capacidade de aprendizagem e no sucesso escolar dos
seus filhos. Para tal, participaram nesta investigação 115 pais residentes em Portugal, com
filhos a frequentarem o 1ºciclo do ensino básico, em que 104 são do sexo feminino e 11
do sexo masculino, com idades compreendidas entre os 26 e os 51 anos. Para analisar o
impacto da pandemia por COVID-19 na aprendizagem e de modo geral, foram utilizadas
oito perguntas de resposta aberta e para compreender a Atitude Mental foi aplicado o
Questionário sobre Atitude Mental. Após a análise fatorial exploratória do Questionário
sobre Atitude Mental verificou-se a existência de três fatores, o que não coincide com os
estudos anteriores (Dweck, 2021), com questões semelhantes. A análise das respostas
abertas apresenta a existência de quatro dimensões - Impacto Positivo, Impacto Negativo,
Impacto Neutro e Impacto Geral- onde sobressai o Impacto Negativo, que vai ao encontro
dos estudos anteriores (Delicado & Ferrão, 2021). Por fim, a relação entre estes dois
instrumentos parece confirmar que a pandemia por COVID-19, na perspetiva dos pais, é
percebida como tendo um impacto negativo na capacidade de aprendizagem e no sucesso
escolar, independentemente do tipo de Atitude Mental observado.
Parents' mindset and the way they perceive obstacles influence their parenting behaviors as well as children's perception of themselves (Dweck, 2021). The COVID-19 pandemic forced the transition of classes to an online format and parents were required to assume important pedagogical roles to support their children's education. Therefore, the general objective of this study is to understand the mental attitude of parents, as well as their perceptions about the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the learning ability and academic success of their children. In this investigation, participated 115 parents residing in Portugal, with children attending the 1st cycle of basic education, in which 104 are female and 11 are male, aged between 26 and 51 years old. To analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on learning ability and in general, eight open-answer questions were used and to understand Mental Attitude the Mental Attitude Questionnaire was applied. After exploratory factor analysis of the Mental Attitude Questionnaire, three factors were found, which does not coincide with previous studies (Dweck, 2021), with similar questions. The analysis of open responses shows the existence of four dimensions - Positive Impact, Negative Impact, Neutral Impact and General Impact - where Negative Impact stands out, which is in line with previous studies (Delicado & Ferrão, 2021). Finally, the relationship between these two instruments seems to confirm that the COVID-19 pandemic, from the perspective of parents, is perceived as having a negative impact on learning ability and school success, regardless of the type of Mindset observed.
