- Atribuições, estilos e práticas no cuidado de crianças em creches mexicanasPublication . Salinas-Quiroz, Fernando; Andrade, Abraham; Hernández, Esperanza; Velázquez, Rubén; Coelho, Leandra MarquesResumo: Os estudos sobre os Centros de Educação Infantil (CEI) indicam que não existem associações consistentes entre a qualidade do CEI e o nível educativo do Cuidador Secundário Professional (CSP) pressupondo que o nível, por si só, pouco contribui para a efetividade do CSP nos CEI. No entanto, as interpretações do CSP sobre a intencionalidade do comportamento das crianças parecem determinar o tipo de práticas educativas utilizadas na resposta às necessidades das crianças. O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar as associações entre as atribuições dos CSP sobre a intencionalidade do comportamento da criança e os estilos e práticas de educação. 34 CSP participaram no estudo. Os instrumentos utilizados foram versões adaptadas da Escala de Atribuições Maternas e da Escala de Comportamentos para Mães e Pais com Crianças Pequenas. Os resultados indicaram correlações entre os estilos de educação e as atribuições negativas, assim como entre as práticas de educação e as atribuições positivas demonstrando a importância dos fatores psicológicos dos CSP no cuidado de qualidade às crianças. Os promotores de políticas públicas podem criar mecanismos de seleção/promoção de pessoal que privilegiem fatores não académicos, gerando continuidade no cuidado prestado às crianças.
- Parenting aspiration among diverse sexual orientations and gender Identities in Mexico, and Its Association with internalized homo/transnegativity and connectedness to the LGBTQ CommunityPublication . Salinas-Quiroz, Fernando; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Lozano-Verduzco, IgnacioThe purpose of this study was to examine parenting aspiration among a sample of 1,995 childless cisgender, transgender, monosexual (gay/lesbian), and plurisexual (bisexual/pansexual/queer) Mexican individuals, which were compared according to their gender identity (cisgender vs. transgender) and sexual orientation (monosexual vs. plurisexual). For monosexual individuals, only being in a relationship and gender were significantly associated with parenting aspiration whereas for plurisexual individuals, gender, LGBTQ
- Preditores do envolvimento paterno numa amostra de famílias portuguesas. O papel das crenças parentaisPublication . Monteiro, Lígia Maria Santos; Torres, Nuno; Salinas-Quiroz, FernandoO presente estudo visou analisar preditores do envolvimento paterno em atividades do dia-a-dia relacionadas com a criança, considerando a perspetiva do pai (crenças sobre o papel do pai) e testando o possível papel regulador da mãe (via crenças maternas). Foram controladas variáveis sociodemográficas dos cuidadores (e.g., habilitações) e da criança (e.g., sexo). Participaram no estudo 241 famílias nucleares (pai, mãe e criança-alvo). Análises de regressão múltipla hierárquica indicam que apenas os modelos relativos aos cuidados são significativos, e que os preditores são distintos consoante os domínios analisados. Obteve-se, ainda, um efeito de interação entre as crenças maternas e o sexo da criança, indicando o potencial papel regulatório da mãe no modo como os pais estão envolvidos nos cuidados diretos às raparigas. Estes resultados colocam questões importantes para o trabalho com as famílias no sentido de promover um maior envolvimento positivo do pai.
- Attitudes toward Lesbians, Gay Men, and their rights in a sample of ecuadorian cisgender men and womenPublication . Hermosa-Bosano, Carlos; Hidalgo-Andrade, Paula; Olaya-Torres, Adriana Julieth; Duque Romero, Claudia; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Salinas-Quiroz, FernandoSince 1997, Ecuador has undergone a series of changes to ensure family rights to sexual minorities. However, there is still limited research regarding attitudes toward them. This study focused on the attitudes toward lesbians (L), gay men (G), and their rights. A sample of 318 cisgender Ecuadorians who responded to an online survey was recruited. Analyses indicated that men, heterosexuals, who practice their religion, attend more frequently to religious services, and identify as conservative showed higher levels of prejudice against LG as well as less support toward their rights. Further, participants who did not have LG acquaintances, friends, family members, and those who did not know any LG parented family showed less support toward these populations. Multiple regression analyses indicated that believing that a person’s sexual orientation is learned significantly predicted the attitudes measured in our study. Implications of these findings to help reduce prejudice against LG individuals are discussed.

- Are the children alright? A systematic review of psychological adjustment of children conceived by assisted reproductive technologiesPublication . Carneiro, Francis Anne Teplitzky; Leong, Valéria; Nóbrega, Sara; Salinas-Quiroz, Fernando; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Leal, IsabelThe present systematic review aims to assess the psychological adjustment of children born through assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) and to screen for clinical problems when compared with normative data from the standardized indexes of mental health. Following PRISMA guidelines, the search was conducted from inception through September 2021 using APA PsycInfo, APA PsycArticles, Psychology and Behavioural Sciences Collection, Academic Search Complete, Pubmed, Scopus, Web of Science, Scielo, and RCAAP. Search terms related to ART and children’s psychological adjustment were combined to Boolean operators to identify relevant published studies in English, French, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish. Peer-reviewed studies focused on the psychological adjustment of ART children aged between the 3 and 11 years were included. From a total of 337 results, 45 papers were eligible to be included in this review. Data extraction was performed independently by two authors and revised and confrmed by other two authors. All children scored below the clinical range for psychiatric symptoms when compared with normative data for the Strengths and Difculties Questionnaire (SDQ) or the Achenbach System of Empirically Based Assessment (ASEBA), regardless of type of ART and diferent family confgurations. Further, some evidence suggests that surrogacy children with gay fathers present the lowest levels of psychological problems when compared to normative data. These fndings enable practitioners to develop an informed view of ART children mental health outcomes to help parents fnd more adaptive strategies to navigate their chosen pathways in healthier ways
- “This is not what God intended”: Attitudes toward adoption by same-sex couples in EcuadorPublication . Hermosa-Bosano, Carlos; Hidalgo-Andrade, Paula; Marcillo Vallejo, Anna Belén; Torres, Adriana Julieth Olaya; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Salinas-Quiroz, FernandoIntroduction: In Ecuador, adoption is limited to heterosexual couples and information on attitudes toward same-sex couples who intend to become parents following this pathway is scarce. This study aimed to identify the beliefs of a sample of 319 cisgender people in Ecuador regarding the adoption of children by same-sex couples and explore the reasons why they consider it is appropriate or not for lesbian and gay (LG) couples to adopt children. Methods: Between May and October 2019, participants responded quantitative and qualitative questions after reading a vignette about a couple interested in adopting a child. Participants were randomly presented with one out of three versions of the vignette based on the couples’ sexual orientation (L,G, heterosexual). Descriptive, correlational statistics and analysis of variance were used to conduct quantitative analyses. Qualitative responses were analyzed using thematic and content analysis. Results: Results indicate favorability toward adoption by all couples in general. However, people showed the highest concerns about adoption by LG couples. Qualitative answers indicate the existence of nine types of arguments used by participants to explain their position in favor or against adoption by same-sex couples. Conclusion: Some are problematic since they are rooted in prejudiced ideas about heterosexual people’s superiority regarding their capacities to create emotionally nurturing environments. Policy Implications: Providing information regarding LG parenting might be a way of achieving legislative changes that might, in turn, promote social change by providing a legal platform for same-sex couples to achieve parenthood. © 2022, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
- Predictors of attitudes toward lesbian and gay parenting in an ecuadorian sample.Publication . Hermosa-Bosano, Carlos; Hidalgo-Andrade, Paula; Torres, Adriana Julieth Olaya; Romero, Claudia Duque; Costa, Pedro Alexandre; Salinas-Quiroz, FernandoIn the past few years, Ecuador has experienced legal changes toward the recognition of sexual minority rights. However, lesbian and gay (LG) individuals and couples still face legal obstacles to become parents and social barriers that place their families in disadvantage compared to their heterosexual counterparts. To date, it is not known whether the legal changes reflect society’s move toward a more progressive and accepting climate. This study analyzed the attitudes toward LG parenting in an Ecuadorian online-recruited sample. Three hundred thirty-eight (338) participants answered an online questionnaire about the negative effects and the benefits of having LG parents. The strongest belief among participants was that children of LG parents would be victimized because of their parents’ sexual orientation. Analyses indicated differences in attitudes based on age, sexual orientation, marital status, education level, as well as religiosity. Finally, regression models suggested that beliefs about the origins of sexual orientation and contact with LG people predicted attitude scores. Implications of these findings are discussed.
