Abstract(s)
Com o crescimento da incidĂȘncia dos casos de violĂȘncia filioparental, a comunidade cientĂfica tem se mostrado interessada em investigar esta problemĂĄtica. Neste sentido, pretende-se estudar se determinadas caracterĂsticas sociodemogrĂĄficas tĂȘm maior influĂȘncia em desenvolver comportamentos agressivos contra os seus progenitores e, se o facto de os jovens testemunharem direta ou indiretamente violĂȘncia tĂȘm maior probabilidade de exercerem violĂȘncia filioparental.
A presente investigação envolveu 176 participantes, 116 do sexo feminino e 60 do sexo masculino, entre os 18 e os 25 anos de idade. Aos participantes foi pedido que respondessem ao Questionårio de Agressão Parental (Calvete, Gamez-Guadix, Orue, Gonzalez-Diez, Lopez de Arroyabe, Sampedro, Pereira, Zubizarreta & Borrajo, 2013).
Os resultados obtidos na investigação mostram que 10,8% dos participantes exercem violĂȘncia filioparental; 52,6% afirma que vive numa famĂlia nuclear, ou seja, vive com ambos os pais. A forma de violĂȘncia que prevalece Ă© a violĂȘncia psicolĂłgica. Tem maior incidĂȘncia nas mĂŁes, mas as diferenças nĂŁo sĂŁo significativas entre os pais. Relativamente ao consumo de substĂąncias e Ă presença de problemas psicolĂłgicos nĂŁo se verificaram diferenças significativas entre os participantes que exercem violĂȘncia contra os seus progenitores. Ter testemunhado tem um efeito estatisticamente significativo na violĂȘncia filioparental, enquanto que ter sido vĂtima de violĂȘncia nĂŁo tem um efeito estatisticamente significativo na violĂȘncia filioparental.
Pode-se concluir que é importante a divulgação desta problemåtica, existirem mais investigaçÔes para obter um conhecimento mais completo e rico, para poder criar medidas e programas preventivos.
With the growing incidence of youth-to-parent violence, the scientific community has been interested in studying this issue. Therefore, this work intends to study whether certain sociodemographic characteristics have a greater influence in the development of aggressive behaviors against parents, and if the fact of young people witnessing direct or indirect violence makes them more likely to exert youth-to-parent violence. This research involved 176 participants, 116 females and 60 males, between 18 and 25 years of age. It was asked to the participants to answer to the Child-to-Parent Aggression Questionnaire (Calvete, Gamez-Guadix, Orue, Gonzalez-Diez, Lopez de Arroyabe, Sampedro, Pereira, Zubizarreta & Borrajo, 2013). The results of the research show that 10.8% of the participants use youth-to-parent violence; 52.6% say that they live in a nuclear family, that is, they live with both parents. The form of violence that prevails is psychological violence. It has a higher rate in the mothers, but the differences are not significant between the parents. Regarding substance use and the presence of psychological problems, there were no substantial differences between young people who are violent to their parents. Being a witness of violent situations has a statistically significant effect on youth-to-parent violence, while being a victim of violence does not have a statistically significant effect on youth-to-parent violence. In conclusion, it is important to expose this problem, so there is more research to acquire a more complete and rich knowledge to create preventive measures and programs.
