Abstract(s)
A Competência Parental é uma das auto-percepções parentais mais estudadas no âmbito do estudo das
cognições parentais com implicações no comportamento parental, nas interacções pais-crianças e no
desenvolvimento e comportamento dos filhos. Neste domínio, a Escala de Sentimento de Competência
Parental é amplamente utilizada no estudo da eficácia parental e na avaliação de consequências de
intervenções na parentalidade. Contudo, diversos estudos têm reportado soluções factoriais distintas,
levantando um debate sobre a natureza conceptual e as propriedades psicométricas da medida. Neste
estudo, avalia-se através de Análise Factorial Confirmatória (MEE) o ajustamento do modelo de
medida da ESCP numa amostra de pais portugueses (n=236). Os resultados mostram que a solução
de 3 factores Satisfação, Eficácia e Interesse, revelou melhor ajustamento global e melhor fiabilidade
compósita, validade convergente e divergente. Na globalidade, os resultados sustentam a validade
discriminatória entre os construtos Satisfação, Eficácia e Interesse e a ideia de que as percepções de
competência parental abrangem múltiplos componentes cognitivos modulares e interligados, mas com
fontes de variação independentes e origens distintas.
ABSTRACT: Within the field of parenting cognitions, sense competence is one of the parental self-perceptions most studied and associations as been found with parental behavior, parent-child interactions and child behavior and development. Parental Sense of Competence – PSOC is a measure frequently used for the study of parental self-efficacy and one of the most reported outcomes in parental intervention evaluations. Nevertheless, a debate about the nature and psychometric proprieties as emerge from different factor solutions reported in literature. In the present study we use Confirmatory Factor Analysis (SEM) to evaluate the measure model quality and adjustment in a sample or Portuguese parents (n=236). Results show that the tri factor solution model, Parental Satisfaction, Efficacy and Interest, has better indices of global adjustment, composite, convergent and divergent validity. Taken together results support evidence for discriminate construct validity between Parental Satisfaction, Efficacy and Interest and the idea that parental competence self-perceptions evolve multiple modular and related components, although shaped independently and with different origins.
