Abstract(s)
O presente estudo teve como objetivo identificar perfis de envolvimento relativo do pai, em diversas
atividades relacionadas com o dia-a-dia da criança (cuidados e socialização), testando posteriormente
se existiam diferenças, em função dos mesmos, para o ajustamento social das crianças. Participaram
283 famílias nucleares, com crianças em idade pré-escolar (139 rapazes). Foram identificados dois
perfis: Perfil 1 – companheiros de brincadeira e Perfil 2 – cuidadores e companheiros de brincadeira.
Os pais no Perfil 2 participavam significativamente mais em todas as atividades analisadas.
Encontraram-se, ainda, diferenças em função das habilitações literárias de ambos os cuidadores (mais
elevadas no Perfil 2) e das horas de trabalho dos pais (mais elevadas no Perfil 1). Para 94 destas
crianças as educadoras descreveram o seu ajustamento social, tendo-se verificado que crianças cujos
pais estão mais envolvidos nas atividades de cuidados e de socialização apresentavam valores mais
baixos de retraimento social ansioso no grupo de pares. Os resultados sugerem a importância de se
considerar quer a mãe, quer o pai, quando se desenham programas de promoção do bem-estar e
ajustamento social das crianças.
The present study aimed to identify profiles of fathers on the basis of their Involvement in several activities (care and socialization) related to children’s daily life testing, subsequently, if there were differences in children’s social adjustment. Two-hundred and eighty-three nuclear families with preschool age children (139 boys) participated in the study. Two profiles were identified: Profile 1 – playmates; and Profile 2 – caregivers and playmates. The fathers in Profile 2 participated significantly more in all the analyzed activities. Differences were found between profiles regarding caregivers’ educational levels (higher in Profile 2), and fathers’ working hours (higher in Profile 1). For 94 of these children their social adjustment was described by the pre-school teachers. Children whose fathers were more involved in care and socialization activities (Profile 2) had lower scores of anxious social withdrawal behaviors in the peer group. The results support the need to consider both caregivers when planning programs to promote children’s well-being and adjustment.
