Introdução: O presente estudo focou-se em compreender o efeito do consumo de pornografia online na qualidade relacional de indivíduos em relações amorosas. Método: Adotou-se um delineamento misto, transversal e correlacional, integrando uma componente quantitativa e uma qualitativa. A amostra quantitativa foi constituída por 67 participantes, que completaram o Cyber Pornography Use Inventory – 9 (CPUI-9), enquanto a amostra qualitativa abrangeu uma análise temática indutiva de seis entrevistas estruturadas. Resultados: Verificaram-se níveis reduzidos de compulsividade percebida, esforços de acesso e perturbação emocional, relacionados com o consumo. A média global aproxima-se dos valores observados no estudo de validação portuguesa do instrumento, revelando um consumo percebido como controlado.
Observou-se uma correlação negativa e estatisticamente significativa entre a idade e o consumo problemático de pornografia, propondo um maior envolvimento de participantes mais jovens.
Da análise temática emergiram quatro temas: 1) Motivações para o consumo de pornografia; 2) Efeitos percebidos nas relações amorosas; 3) Perceções e atitudes face ao consumo pelo parceiro; 4) Contexto e experiência emocional associada ao consumo. Conclusão: Os
resultados reforçam o valor elucidativo do Modelo de Antecedentes, Contexto e Efeitos (ACE), demonstrando que os efeitos do consumo pornográfico provêm da interação entre fatores individuais e relacionais. O estudo fornece uma percepção contextualizada e não patologizante do fenómeno em Portugal, destacando a importância da comunicação e da literacia sexual na preservação da qualidade relacional.
Introduction: This study focused on understanding the effect of online pornography consumption on the relationship quality of individuals in romantic relationships. Method: A mixed, cross-sectional, and correlational design was adopted, integrating a quantitative and a qualitative component. The quantitative sample consisted of 67 participants who completed the Cyber Pornography Use Inventory – 9 (CPUI-9), while the qualitative sample comprised an inductive thematic analysis of six structured interviews. Results: Reduced levels of perceived compulsivity, access efforts, and emotional distress related to consumption were observed. The overall average is close to the values observed in the Portuguese validation study of the instrument, revealing consumption perceived as controlled. A negative and statistically significant correlation was observed between age and problematic pornography consumption, suggesting greater involvement of younger participants. Four themes emerged from the thematic analysis: 1) Motivations for pornography consumption; 2) Perceived effects on romantic relationships; 3) Perceptions and attitudes towards partner consumption; 4) Context and emotional experience associated with consumption. Conclusion: The results reinforce the explanatory value of the Antecedents, Context, and Effects (ACE) Model, demonstrating that the effects of pornography consumption stem from the interaction between individual and relational factors. The study provides a contextualized and non-pathologizing perception of the phenomenon in Portugal, highlighting the importance of communication and sexual literacy in preserving relationship quality.
