Abstract(s)
Neste estudo tentou-se estudar autoconceito a autoestima e as atribuições de causalidade em profissionais do sexo.
Participaram neste estudo 48 mulheres em que todas elas desempenhavam a mesma actividade no mesmo local.
Como instrumento foram utilizados três questionários para medir o autoconceito, a autoestima e as atribuições de causalidade das mesmas.
Concluiu-se que, de um modo geral a autoestima era baixa e que no autoconceito as dimensões mais elevadas. Constatámos que as principais atribuições para a entrada na profissão foram quase todas de origem externa, em parte instáveis e incontroláveis. Quanto às razões para se manterem nesta actividade estão também ligadas a factores externos, estáveis mas incontroláveis. A análise de algumas variáveis como a idade, habilitações literárias ou nacionalidade não evidenciou diferenças nem no autoconceito nem na autoestima das participantes.
