Abstract(s)
Em dezembro de 2019, é identificado o vírus SARS-CoV-2, cuja doença foi posteriormente denominada COVID-19. Esta doença, com alto nível de transmissibilidade, longo período de incubação, e com pacientes assintomáticos obrigou à implementação de um período de quarentena, que forçou um confinamento social, com forte impacto no dia-a-dia da população. Períodos de confinamento diminuem o bem-estar e, consequentemente, a satisfação com a vida, aumentando o aparecimento de psicopatologias. As dinâmicas familiares alteraram inclusive a dinâmica conjugal, o que afeta a satisfação com a vida amorosa e a satisfação sexual. Assim, o presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar dimensões do bem-estar psicológico, como a satisfação com a vida e os afetos positivos e negativos dos indivíduos durante o primeiro confinamento por COVID-19, bem como a satisfação com a vivência conjugal, nas dimensões afetivo-cognitiva e sexual, na população de adultos portugueses. Participaram 86 pessoas, destacando-se o emparelhamento de 19 casais, dos 18 aos 65 anos. Avaliámos os afetos, a satisfação com a vida, a satisfação com a vida amorosa, satisfação sexual e estratégias de coping diádico. Os principais resultados demonstram que durante o período de confinamento os casais, especialmente, os que proveem de agregados familiares maiores, experienciaram mais afetos negativo que, consequentemente, se reflete na sua satisfação com a vida. Durante o respetivo período, os afetos negativos, satisfação amorosa e sexual, e as estratégias de coping utilizadas pelos elementos do casal estão relacionadas positivamente. Já durante o período referente aos “últimos 15 dias”, esta relação é verificada entre satisfação com a vida amorosa, sexual e as estratégias de coping utilizadas, tendo os afetos negativos perdido expressão. Assim, é possível dizer que o confinamento pela pandemia de Covid-19 teve um impacto negativo, tanto na saúde mental dos adultos portugueses, como também, ao nível das suas dinâmicas conjugais.
In December 2019, SARS-CoV-2, currently known as COVID-19, emerged. This disease has a high level of transmissibility, incubation period, and there are asymptomatic patients, which forced the implementation of a period of quarantine and a lockdown with a strong impact on the daily life of the population. Periods of confinement, decreased well-being and, consequently, satisfaction with life, increasing psychopathology. Family dynamics were changed, including a marital satisfaction and satisfaction with love life and sexual satisfaction. The main objective of the present study is evaluate the dimensions of well-being, such as satisfaction with life and positive and negative affections during the first confinement by COVID-19, as well as the study of dimensions, such as sexual contentment with the affective-marital experience, in the population of Portuguese adults. A total of 86 people participated, 5 of which were 19 couples aged 18-65 years. We evaluate the affection, life satisfaction, love life satisfaction, sexual satisfaction and dyadic coping strategies. The main results showed that during the lockdown, couples, especially those from larger households, experienced more negative affects, which consequently reflected in their satisfaction with life. During the respective period, the negative affects, love life and sexual satisfaction and coping strategies used by the members of the couple are positively related. During the period referring to the “last 15 days”, this relationship is verified between satisfaction with the love life, sexual life and the coping strategies used, having the lost affections expressed. Thus, it is possible to say that the confinement due to the Covid-19 pandemic had a negative impact, both on the mental health of Portuguese adults, as well as on their marital dynamics.
