Abstract(s)
Nas últimas décadas, transformações sociais, culturais, políticas e educacionais produziram
mudanças no conceito de família e consequentemente, nos papéis e funções de cada
elemento da família. Atualmente os pais do sexo masculino assumem um papel mais ativo
na vida dos filhos. O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar o envolvimento dos pais
na vida dos filhos e comunicação pai-filho. Foi recolhida uma amostra de 151 pais do sexo
masculino (M=40.28, DP=6.58), de crianças com idades entre os 6 e os 12 anos. Para o
efeito, foi utilizado um questionário sociodemográfico, a Escala de Avaliação da
Comunicação na Parentalidade-Versão Pais (COMPA-P) e o Inventário de Envolvimento
Paterno-Versão Reduzida (IEP-VR). Os resultados indicam que os pais-homens consideram
estar envolvidos na vida dos seus filhos, contudo ainda existem fatores que condicionam
esse envolvimento, nomeadamente a jornada de trabalho. Além disto, embora mais
envolvido nas várias atividades da vida dos filhos, os pais continuam a desempenhar um
papel de provedor no seio familiar, conservando assim características tradicionais da
paternidade. A comunicação revela-se processo chave da relação pai-filho, registando-se
correlações positivas e elevadas com o envolvimento paterno. Serão discutidos os resultados
que têm implicações práticas e teóricas relevantes, para profissionais que trabalham com
famílias.
In the last decades, social, cultural, political and educational changes have produced around the concept of family and, consequently, in the roles and functions of each family member. Currently, male parents take a more active role in their children's lives. The present study aimed to analyze the involvement of parents in their children's lives and parent-child communication. A sample of 151 male parents (M=40.28, SD=6.58) of children aged between 6 and 12 years was collected. For this purpose, a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Perception Scale of Parenting Communication-Fathers Version (COMPA-P) and the Inventory of Father Involvement–Short Form (IEP-VR) were used. The results indicate that fathers consider themselves involved in their children's lives, however some factors still conditioning this involvement, namely the working day. In addition, although more involved in the various activities of their children's lives, fathers continue to play a main role as a financial provider within the family, preserving traditional characteristics of fatherhood. Communication proves to be a key process in the father-child relationship, with positive and high correlations with paternal involvement. These findings have practical and theoretical implications for professionals working with families will be discussed.
