Resumo(s)
A investigação acerca das atribuições parentais, relativas ao comportamento
desadequado dos filhos, revela a sua importância no entendimento de dificuldades das
crianças e dos pais, e no envolvimento destes no processo e no resultado terapêutico da
criança, no entanto esta investigação é reduzida, sendo ainda mais escassa na população
portuguesa.
A presente investigação tem como objetivos o estudo das atribuições parentais
acerca do comportamento desadequado dos filhos, bem como compreender a expressão
de variáveis que lhe estão associadas, relativas aos pais e aos filhos, no contexto
português. Investigou-se um total de 73 pais (17 pais e 56 mães), de nacionalidade
portuguesa, com 18 ou mais anos, e com pelo menos um filho(a) entre os 8 e os 12 anos.
Os participantes preencheram um questionário sociodemográfico (sexo, profissão e
escolaridade dos pais, numero de filhos, e idade sexo dos filhos), bem como 5
questionários de autorrelato para avaliar as atribuições parentais (Parent Cognition
Scale), a autoeficácia parental (Perceived Parental Self-Efficacy Scale), o temperamento
das crianças (School Age Temperament Inventory), o comportamento das crianças
(Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire) e o ajustamento psicológico parental (Brief
Symptom Inventory).
Os resultados indicam associações significativas negativas entre a autoeficácia
parental e as atribuições parentais, e positivas entre a sintomatologia dos pais e as
atribuições de causalidade aos pais, e entre o temperamento difícil dos filhos e as
atribuições de responsabilidade à criança. Os resultados indicam também que os pais
com filhos dos 10-12 anos fazem mais atribuições parentais de responsabilidade à
criança, do que os pais com filhos dos 8-9 anos. A autoeficácia parental é o melhor
preditor das atribuições parentais.
Espera-se contribuir para o aumento do conhecimento sobre as atribuições que os
pais fazem quando os filhos apresentam um comportamento desadequado, e para o
desenvolvimento de intervenções junto de pais que apresentem atribuições menos
adaptativas.
The investigation about the parental attributions, related to the inappropriate behaviour from their children, reveal the importance in the understanding of the difficulties from both children and parents, and in the engagement of these in the process and in the therapeutical results from the child, however this investigation is reduced, being even less in the portuguese population. The objectives of this investigation are the study of the parental attributions related to the inappropriate behaviour from their children, as well as the understanding of the expression of variables associated with it, relating to parents and children, in the portuguese context. A total of 73 parents (17 fathers and 56 mothers), of portuguese nationality, aged 18 or over, and with at least one child between 8 and 12 years old were investigated. Participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire (gender, profession and education of the parents, number of children, and age of the children), as well as 5 selfreport questionnaires to assess parental assignments (Parent Cognition Scale); parental self-efficacy (Perceived Parental Self-Efficacy Scale); children's temperament (School Age Temperament Inventory); children's behavior (Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire); and parental psychological adjustment (Brief Symptom Inventory). The results indicate statistically significant associations: negative between parental self-efficacy and parental attributions, and positive between parental symptomatology and causal attribution to parents and between the difficult temperament of the children and the attribution of responsibility to the child. Parental self-efficacy is the best predictor of parental assignments. They also indicate that parents with children aged 10-12 years make more parental responsibility for the child than parents with children aged 8-9 years. It is expected to contribute to the increase of knowledge about the attributions that parents do when their children show inappropriate behavior, and to the development of interventions with parents that present less adaptive attributions.
