Abstract(s)
As práticas educativas parentais são consideradas um determinante na qualidade de vida infantil e estão relacionadas com a saúde mental dos pais. O presente estudo teve como objetivo conhecer as relações entre as práticas educativas abusivas, a saúde mental parental e a qualidade de vida infantil percebida numa amostra de pais da Região Autónoma da Madeira. Para a recolha de dados, foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos: o Adult-Adolescence Parenting Inventory, o Questionário de Saúde Geral e o Kidscreen-27. Participaram 50 pais residentes na freguesia do Curral das Freiras. Os resultados sugerem relações significativas entre as práticas parentais e a qualidade de vida infantil percebida. Observámos que quanto maior foi o nível de bem-estar físico menor foi a falta de empatia e inversão da função pai-filho; e quanto maior foi o nível de ambiente escolar maior a inversão da função pai-filho. Os resultados sugerem ainda que o uso de práticas educativas parentais negativas foi maior nos pais com nível de estudos mais baixo e nas famílias monoparentais. Podemos concluir que o uso de práticas educativas parentais inadequadas está associado a uma menor qualidade de vida infantil. Assim, fomentar o uso de práticas parentais positivas pode contribuir para aumentar a qualidade de vida infantil, atuando como fator protetor.
Parenting practices are a determinant of children's quality of life and related to parents' mental health. This study aimed to analyze the relations between abusive parenting practices, parental mental health and perceived child quality of life in a sample of parents from the Autonomous Region of Madeira. The following instruments were used for data collection: the Adult-Adolescence Parenting Inventory, the General Health Questionnaire and the Kidscreen-27. Fifty parents living in Curral das Freiras participated. The results suggest significant relationships between parenting practices and perceived child quality of life. We observed that the higher the level of physical well-being, the lower was the lack of empathy and the inversion of the parent-child role; as it was also possible to verify that the higher was the level of school environment, the higher was the inversion of the parent-child role. The results also suggest that the use of negative parenting practices was higher in parents with a lower level of education and in single-parent families. We can conclude that the use of inappropriate parental educational practices was associated with a lower quality of life in children. Thus, encouraging the use of positive parenting practices may contribute to increase the children's quality of life, acting as a protective factor.
