Esta tese tem como objetivo estudar traços de psicopatia em líderes formais de
Empresas Familiares e Não Familiares em Portugal, os seus níveis de satisfação laboral e,
adicionalmente, perceber se estes traços de psicopatia nos líderes formais afetam a satisfação
laboral dos colaboradores. Com este estudo, é esperado detetar diferenças significativas de
psicopatia primária nos líderes formais (1) e da satisfação laboral (2) dos colaboradores entre
as Empresas Não Familiares e as Empresas Familiares. Também se espera provar que os
resultados elevados na psicopatia primária dos líderes formais estão relacionados com níveis
de satisfação mais baixos nos colaboradores e subordinados (3). Neste estudo, a amostra é
composta de 95 participantes, dos quais 42 são colaboradores de Empresas Familiares. Os
participantes foram submetidos a três instrumentos: LSRP-VP, F-PEC Scale e o MSQ-VP.
Com base nos estudos realizados e conforme as hipóteses enumeradas, partindo-se da
análise dos dados recolhidos nos inquéritos elaborados, concluiu-se que existe uma diferença
significativa na psicopatia primária entre os líderes formais de Empresa Familiares e Não
Familiares (1). Contudo, foi possível constatar que não existe uma diferença significativa na
satisfação laboral dos diferentes colaboradores, nos dois tipos de empresas estudados (2). Foi
possível perceber também, que existe uma relação significativa e negativa entre a psicopatia
primária dos líderes formais e a satisfação laboral, o que pode ter impacto na eficácia do
colaborador e posteriormente na empresa em si (3).
This thesis project aims to study psychopathy traits among managers of Family and Non-Family Businesses in Portugal, their levels of job satisfaction and, additionally, to understand if these psychopathy traits among managers affect employees' job satisfaction. With this study, it is expected to detect significant differences in the primary psychopathy of managers (1) and in the job satisfaction (2) of employees between non-family and family businesses. It is also expected to prove that high scores in the primary psychopathy of bosses are related to lower satisfaction levels in employees and subordinates (3). In this study, the sample consists of 95 participants, of which 42 are employees of Family Businesses. The participants were subjected to three instruments: LSRP-VP, F-PEC Scale and the MSQ-VP. Based on the studies carried out and according to the hypotheses listed and based on the analysis of the data collected in the surveys, it was concluded that there is a significant difference in primary psychopathy between Family and Non-Family Company Managers (1).
