O objetivo do estudo consiste em avaliar se o rótulo de doença mental e o internamento
influenciam a atribuição de vitimização secundária de vítimas de violência doméstica, como
também perceber se outros fatores afetam a perceção da vítima e a atribuição de vitimização
secundária da mesma.
Participaram no estudo 174 participantes, mais concretamente, 147 participantes do
género feminino, 24 participantes do género masculino e três participantes que se identificaram
com outro género, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 74 anos (M = 28.07, DP = 10.41).
De modo a recolher os dados, foi desenvolvido um questionário em formato on-line
na plataforma Qualtrics, onde foi aplicada a Escala de Vitimização Secundaria (Correia, 2003)
e, seguidamente à apresentação da vinheta, a Domestic Violence Myth Acceptance Scale,
originalmente desenvolvida por Peters (2008).
Os resultados alcançados evidenciaram que os participantes atribuíram maior
vitimização secundária à condição alcoolismo do que à condição depressão, não existindo
diferenças significativas com a condição sem rótulo. Em relação à presença de internamento,
esta variável não afetou a vitimização secundária da protagonista. Ainda foi possível observar
uma associação significativa entre as crenças nos mitos e a vitimização secundária. Em relação
aos fatores sociodemográficos, o género influenciou diretamente a atribuição de vitimização
secundária, como também a crença nos mitos, no género masculino. Os outros fatores não
impactaram a atribuição de vitimização secundária da protagonista, no entanto os níveis de
escolaridade influenciaram a crença no mitos de violência doméstica.
Os resultados reforçam que mais informação sobre os fatores que potenciam a
vitimização de secundária em vítimas de violência doméstica com doença mental ajudam na
compreensão e, consequentemente, no desenvolvimento de estratégias de prevenção mais
eficazes.
ABSTRACT: The aim of the study is to assess whether the label of mental illness and hospitalization influence the attribution of secondary victimization of victims of domestic violence, as well as whether other factors affect the victim's perception and attribution of secondary victimization. 174 participants took part in the study, specifically 147 female participants, 24 male participants and three participants who identified with another gender, aged between 18 and 74 (M = 28.07, SD = 10.41). In order to collect the data, an online questionnaire was developed on the Qualtrics platform, where the Secondary Victimization Scale (Correia, 2003) was applied, followed by the presentation of the vignette, the Domestic Violence Myth Acceptance Scale, originally developed by Peters (2008). The results show that the participants attributed greater secondary victimization to the alcoholism condition than to the depression condition, while there were no significant differences with the unlabeled condition. With regard to the presence of hospitalization, this variable did not affect the protagonist's secondary victimization. Furthermore, it was possible to observe a significant association between beliefs in myths and secondary victimization. Regarding sociodemographic factors, gender directly influenced the attribution of secondary victimization, as did belief in myths in males. The other factors had no impact on the protagonist's attribution of secondary victimization, but the level of education did influence the belief in domestic violence myths. The results reinforce that more information on the factors that enhance secondary victimization in victims of domestic violence with mental illness helps in understanding and, consequently, in developing more effective prevention strategies.
