Abstract(s)
Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar os tipos de brinquedos mais usados pelas crianças e verificar
as diferenças existentes quanto ao género e à idade de crianças brasileiras e portuguesas. Participaram
da pesquisa 259 crianças no Brasil e 172 crianças em Portugal. Todas as crianças frequentavam os
quatro primeiros anos do ensino básico e tinham entre 6 e 12 anos de idade. Os dados foram recolhidos
por meio de uma escala de brinquedos elaborada especificamente para este estudo. Através da análise
dos dados constatou-se que, quanto à caracterização dos brinquedos, muitas semelhanças entre as
duas amostras foram encontradas. Os meninos de ambas as amostras apresentaram maior utilização
de brinquedos que exigem actividades físicas intensas. As crianças mais jovens da amostra brasileira
utilizaram com maior frequência brinquedos que promovem e estimulam o desenvolvimento motor e
social. Na amostra portuguesa não foram encontradas diferenças significativas na utilização dos
brinquedos entre os diferentes níveis escolares das crianças.
This study aims to identify the kinds of toys more used by children and to verify differences about gender and age of Brazilian and Portuguese children. The participants in the research included 259 Brazilian children and 172 Portuguese children. All of these children attended the first four years of elementary school and they are between 6 and 10 years old. Data were collected by a scale of toys designed specifically for this study. By analyzing the data some similarities could be found between these two samples about the characterization of toys. Boys of both samples demonstrated a predilection for the use of toys that require a more intense physical activity. The youngest children of the Brazilian sample showed to be more predisposed to use toys that promote and stimulate the motor and social development. In the Portuguese sample, in turn, significant differences in the use of toys among children from different school levels were not found.
