Abstract(s)
A família desempenha um papel importante do desenvolvimento e comportamento
infantil, sendo que o divórcio pode tornar-se uma experiência stressante. O presente
estudo, de carácter exploratório comparativo, tem como objectivo verificar se existem
diferenças no comportamento de crianças em situação monoparental, com pais
separados ou divorciados, e crianças em famílias intactas, pais juntos ou casados,
através da percepção de pais e professores. Os Instrumentos utilizados foram: Child
Behaviour Checklist, Teatcher´s Report Form e o Questionário de Caracterização da
Amostra. A amostra, de conveniência, é constituída por 30 crianças em famílias
monoparentais e 32 crianças em famílias intactas a frequentar o 1º ciclo (6 aos 10 anos).
Segundo os resultados, os professores tendem a identificar as crianças do grupo
monoparental como tendo mais problemas de comportamento do que as crianças do
grupo de famílias intactas o que leva à ideia de que o divórcio poderá ser um factor
importante no comportamento infantil.
