Abstract(s)
A violência no namoro é reconhecida como prioridade global de investigação e intervenção.
Estima-se que afeta cerca de 1/3 dos adolescentes, embora dados recentes apontem para uma
prevalência superior. As consequências são amplas e incluem impactos académicos,
emocionais e comportamentais. Embora as atitudes legitimadoras de violência no namoro e os
traços de personalidade sejam considerados fatores de risco, a sua relação com este fenómeno
permanece pouco explorada. Este estudo visa aprofundar a prevalência de violência no namoro
entre adolescentes e investigar as relações entre atitudes legitimadoras, traços neuroticismo e
amabilidade e a própria violência no namoro. Participaram 410 adolescentes entre os 14 e 19
anos (M = 17.18, DP = 1.39), recrutados pelo método de bola de neve. O protocolo de
investigação utiliza um questionário sociodemográfico, o Inventário de Conflitos nas Relações
de Namoro entre Adolescentes versão breve (CADRI-S), a Escala de Atitudes acerca da
Violência no Namoro (EAVN) e o Mini International Personality Item Pool (Mini-IPIP). Os
resultados obtidos revelam uma prevalência de quase 60% em ambas as direções da violência,
sendo a forma mais comum a verbal/emocional. Observou-se maior perpetração de violência
relacional e sexual entre rapazes e verbal/emocional entre raparigas. Jovens da adolescência
média e rapazes apresentaram atitudes mais legitimadoras. Houve evidência de
bidirecionalidade entre perpetração e vitimização. Neuroticismo e amabilidade associaram-se
à perpetração, mas apenas o neuroticismo associou-se com significância à vitimização.
Constatou-se maior poder preditivo das atitudes, após o controlo dos traços. O estudo contribui
com implicações práticas e fornece pistas para investigação futura.
Dating violence is recognized as a global priority for research and intervention. It is estimated that it affects approximately 1/3 of adolescents, although recent data indicate a higher prevalence. The consequences are broad and include academic, emotional and behavioral impacts. Although attitudes that legitimize dating violence and personality traits are considered risk factors, their relationship with this phenomenon remains little explored. This study aims to deepen the prevalence of dating violence among adolescents and investigate the relationships between legitimizing attitudes, neuroticism and agreeableness traits and dating violence itself. A total of 410 adolescents aged 14 to 19 (M = 17.18, SD = 1.39) participated, recruited using the snowball method. The research protocol uses a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Conflict in Adolescent Dating Relationships Inventory Short-Form (CADRI-S), the Attitudes Toward Dating Violence Scale (EAVN) and the Mini International Personality Item Pool (Mini-IPIP). The results obtained reveal a prevalence of almost 60% in both directions of violence, with the most common form being verbal/emotional. There was a greater perpetration of relational and sexual violence among boys and verbal/emotional violence among girls. Young people in middle adolescence and boys presented more legitimizing attitudes. There was evidence of bidirectionality between perpetration and victimization. Neuroticism and agreeableness were associated with perpetration, but only neuroticism was significantly associated with victimization. A greater predictive power of attitudes was observed, after controlling for traits. The study contributes with practical implications and provides clues for future research
