Abstract(s)
Este estudo teve como objetivo explorar se a formação LGB tinha influência na
implementação de práticas afirmativas por parte de psicólogos/as portugueses/as
heterossexuais e cisgénero na intervenção com clientes que se identificam como Lésbicas,
Gays e Bissexuais (LGB). Foi recolhida uma amostra de nove participantes com idades
compreendidas entre 27 e 47 anos. Destes participantes, oito identificavam-se como
mulheres e um como homem. Foram realizadas entrevistas online através da plataforma
Teams, e foram analisadas através de método de análise temática. Foram identificados
cinco temas e nove subtemas. Os resultados revelaram que participantes que tinham
formação LGB apresentavam abordagens de intervenção afirmativas e mantinham
atitudes mais positivas em relação às pessoas LGB. Para além disso, foram identificadas
características pessoais, relativas ao background pessoal dos/as psicólogos/as que atuam
como facilitadoras do engajamento em práticas afirmativas, nas suas posturas e
comportamentos positivos em relação às pessoas LGB e na criação de estratégias para
garantir a qualidade afirmativa das intervenções. Sendo assim, este estudo contribui para
o conhecimento da influência que a formação/conhecimento LGB desempenha na
facilitação e promoção de intervenções adequadas e eficazes para o acompanhamento de
clientes LGB.
ABSTRACT: This study aimed to explore and understand whether LGB training had an influence on the implementation of affirmative practices by heterosexual and cisgender Portuguese psychologists working with clients who identify as Lesbian, Gay, and bisexual (LGB). A sample of 9 participants with ages between 27 and 47 years old was collected, with eight identifying as female and one as male. Online interviews were conducted using the Teams platform. The interviews were analyzed using the thematic analysis qualitative method. Five themes and nine subthemes were identified. The results revealed that participants with LGB training presented more affirmative approaches and maintained more positive attitudes towards LGB individuals. Additionally, personal characteristics related to the psychologists’ personal background acted as facilitators of engagement in affirmative practices, fostering positive attitudes and behaviors towards LGB individuals and in the development of strategies to ensure the affirmative quality of their interventions. Therefore, this study contributes to the understanding of the influence that LGB training plays in facilitating and promoting appropriate and effective interventions when working with LGB clients.
