Abstract(s)
A pertença é uma necessidade básica do ser humano. Ao longo da idade adulta, esta pode
variar com base nos contextos e vivências do sujeito. A atividade de realização de
genealogia tem vindo a ser um passatempo cada vez mais comum em todo o mundo
levando milhões de pessoas a interessarem-se por conhecerem os seus antepassados e
coletarem as suas histórias. O presente estudo tem como objetivo observar a ligação entre
estas duas variáveis: o sentimento de pertença e a realização de genealogia em adultos
como também observar a sua ligação com a saúde mental. Para tal, foram utilizados como
instrumentos de avaliação, o Instrumento de Avaliação do Sentimento de Pertença (IASP),
o instrumento Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5), e um questionário sociodemográfico que
compreende perguntas específicas relacionadas com a realização de busca genealógica. A
amostra foi constituída por 494 adultos. Foram encontradas correlações positivas entre o
sentimento de pertença e a frequência da realização de genealogia e a idade, como também
uma correlação negativa entre sentimento de pertença e saúde mental. É sugerida a
utilização de variáveis mediadoras entre sentimento de pertença e genealogia de forma a
melhor compreender esta relação. O estudo demonstra importância para a Psicologia
clínica revelando como a realização de genealogia poderá ser um fator associado a níveis
de sentimento de pertença mais elevados em adultos. O estudo apresenta implicações
teóricas importantes visto abordar fatores pouco conhecidos em Portugal tais como a
genealogia e o sentimento de pertença em adultos.
ABSTRACT: Belonging is a basic human need. Throughout adulthood, this can vary based on the contexts and experiences of the subject. Genealogy has become an increasingly common pastime around the world, leading millions of people to take an interest in getting to know their ancestors and collecting their stories. The aim of this study was to analyze the link between these two variables: sense of belonging and genealogy in adults, as well as their connection with mental health. To this end, it was used the Instrument for the Assessment of the Sense of Belonging (IASP), the Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5) and a sociodemographic questionnaire with specific questions related to genealogical research. The sample consisted of 494 adults. Positive correlations were found between sense of belonging and the frequency of genealogy and age, as well as a negative correlation between sense of belonging and mental health. It is suggested that introducing certain mediating variables could help to better understand the relationship between sense of belonging and genealogy. The study demonstrates importance for clinical psychology by revealing how conducting genealogy can be a factor associated with higher levels of sense of belonging in adults. The study has important theoretical implications as it addresses factors that are little known in Portugal, such as genealogy and the sense of belonging in adults.
