Abstract(s)
A psicologia escolar é uma especialidade da psicologia que se concentra na aplicação
da psicologia da educação no contexto escolar, bem como no processo de escolarização. Os
psicólogos escolares desempenham um papel crucial na promoção da igualdade de
oportunidades no acesso aos serviços educacionais e psicológicos, onde podem coordenar e
facilitar a colaboração entre diversos profissionais quando trabalham na interseção de diferentes
sistemas. De modo a gerir as expetativas dos professores em relação ao papel do psicólogo, é
essencial estabelecer clareza quanto aos objetivos, e promover um ambiente de colaboração e
relação eficazes, entre ambos. No entanto, são poucos e recentes, os estudos que abordam a
perceção dos professores em relação ao papel do psicólogo a trabalhar em contexto escolar, e
por isso, este é o principal objetivo deste estudo. O presente estudo conta com a participação
de 768 professores de 1º, 2º e 3º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e do Ensino Secundário, que
responderam a um questionário acerca de diferentes atividades/tarefas que poderiam ser
desempenhadas por psicólogos a trabalhar em contexto escolar. Os resultados demonstraram
que, genericamente, os professores pensam que o trabalho principal do psicólogo está
relacionado com práticas associadas ao envolvimento com as crianças, seja de carácter
remediativo, ou carácter interventivo, seguindo um modelo médico de intervenção. Contudo,
as expetativas que os professores possuem, podem variar consoante os níveis de ensino em que
atuam, bem como, com a sua experiência.
ABSTRACT: School psychology is a specialty of psychology that focuses on the application of educational psychology in the school context, as well as in the schooling process. School psychologists play a crucial role in promoting equal opportunity in accessing educational and psychological services, where they can coordinate and facilitate collaboration between diverse professionals when working at the intersection of different systems. In order to manage teachers' expectations regarding the role of the psychologist, it is essential to establish clarity regarding objectives, and promote an environment of effective collaboration and relationships between both. However, there are few and recent studies that address the perception of teachers in relation to the role of the psychologist working in a school context, and therefore, this is the main objective of this study. The present study included the participation of 768 teachers from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Cycle of Basic Education and Secondary Education, who responded to a questionnaire about different activities/tasks that could be performed by psychologists working in a school context. The results demonstrated that, generally speaking, teachers think that the psychologist's main work is related to practices associated with involvement with children, whether of a remedial nature or an interventional nature, following a medical model of intervention. However, the expectations that teachers have may vary depending on the teaching levels at which they work, as well as their experience.
