Abstract(s)
O início da vida adulta representa um período de transição importante e com algum
impacto na saúde mental dos jovens. O impacto do conflito interparental percebido na
saúde mental desta população parece ser um tema relevante no estudo dos jovens adultos
devido às consequências que foram descobertas ao longo dos estudos publicados. Posto
isto, o presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a relação entre o nível de saúde mental
de uma amostra de jovens adultos e o nível de conflito interparental percebido, analisando
também os fatores sociodemográficos relevantes e entendendo a possível ligação do
divórcio nesta relação. Foi aplicado um questionário sociodemográfico, a escala
MacArthur que analisa o estatuto social subjetivo, o Children´s Perception of
Interparental Conflict Scale (CPIC) e a versão reduzida do Inventário de Saúde Mental
(MHI-5) a uma amostra constituída por 278 jovens adultos. Os resultados indicam que os
jovens adultos com menos nível de conflito interparental percebido apresentaram
melhores níveis de saúde mental do que os seus pares. Foi ainda encontrado que as
subescalas do conflito interparental percebido mostraram-se fatores associados
significativos ao nível de saúde mental dos jovens. Foi ainda testado o papel moderador
das subescalas do conflito interparental na relação entre o divórcio e a saúde mental,
contudo esta relação não foi comprovada. Reforça-se a importância de considerar o
subsistema parental e ainda o historial parental na intervenção com jovens adultos.
ABSTRACT: The beginning of adulthood represents an important transition period with some impact on the mental health of young people. The impact of perceived interparental conflict on the mental health of this population seems to be a relevant topic in the study of young adults due to the consequences that have been discovered throughout published studies. Having said that, the present study aimed to understand the relationship between the level of mental health of young adults and the level of perceived interparental conflict, also analyzing the relevant sociodemographic factors and understanding the possible connection of the relationship in this relationship. A sociodemographic questionnaire, the MacArthur scale that analyzes subjective social status, the Children’s Perception of Interparental Conflict Scale (CPIC) and the reduced version of the Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5) were applied to a sample consisting of 278 young adults. The results revealed that young adults with lower levels of interparental conflict perceived better levels of mental health than their peers. It was also found that the subscales of interparental conflict presented were important factors associated with the level of mental health of young people. The moderating role of the interparental conflict subscales in the relationship between the exemplar and mental health was also tested, however this relationship was not proven. The importance of considering the parental subsystem and parental history in intervention with young adults is reinforced.
