Abstract(s)
O presente estudo teve como principal objetivo analisar e caraterizar as atitudes e as crenças face à coerção sexual na sociedade portuguesa e como segundo objetivo analisar o tipo de discurso utilizado pelos indivíduos que apresentaram uma maior concordância com as crenças e as atitudes de coerção sexual em comparação aos indivíduos que apresentaram uma menor concordância com as mesmas. O estudo foi realizado na população portuguesa. A amostra é composta por um total de 74 adultos dos quais 53 do género sexual feminino e 21 do género sexual masculino. Para concretização do objetivo foi criado um instrumento composto por uma questão de autorrelato de uma situação hipotética de coerção sexual recorrendo à técnica de entrada de diário e duas escalas a Sexual Beliefs Scale e Atitudes Face à Coerção Sexual, que permitiram a medição das crenças e atitudes dos participantes.
Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que os participantes do género sexual masculino apresentaram médias mais elevadas perante as crenças e as atitudes referentes à coerção sexual do que os participantes do género sexual feminino. Na análise qualitativa foi observado que as formas de coerção sexual mais relatadas foram a insistência verbal e atos físicos leves como os beijos, toques e/ou carícias, não foram identificadas caraterísticas diferenciadoras no discurso dos diferentes grupos criados.
No final deste estudo foram encontradas algumas limitações, entre as quais, a dificuldade de recolha de dados em pessoas do género sexual masculino e o corpus textual recolhido foi de pequena dimensão.
Para futuras investigações sugiro uma amostra mais equitativa com mais questões de resposta direta sobre a coerção sexual e não o autorrelato de apenas uma única situação, permitindo uma análise mais detalhada sobre as atitudes, as crenças e a forma como o consentimento é aceite e observado. Outra sugestão será a validação da tradução da Sexual Beliefs Scale para a Língua Portuguesa.
The main objective of the present study was to analyze and characterize the attitudes and beliefs towards sexual coercion in Portuguese society and as a second objective to analyze the type of discourse used by different persons with greater agreement with sexual coercion beliefs and attitudes compared to people that a lesser agreement with them. The study was carried out in the Portuguese population. The sample comprises a total of 74 adults, 53 of whom are female and 21 are male. To achieve the objective, an instrument was created consisting of a question of self-report of a hypothetical situation of sexual coercion using the diary entry technique and two scales, the Sexual Beliefs Scale and Attitudes towards Sexual Coercion Scale, which allowed the blocking of beliefs and attitudes of the participants. The results obtained showed that male participants are more revealed beliefs and attitudes regarding sexual coercion than female participants. In the qualitative analysis, it was observed that the most reported forms of sexual coercion were verbal insistence and light physical acts such as kissing, touching and/or caressing, with no distinguishing characteristics between the speech on the different groups created. In the final of this study found some limitations, among which, a difficulty in identifying data on males and the collected textual corpus was small. For future investigations, I suggest a more equitable sample with direct answer questions about sexual coercion and not the self-report of just a single situation, allowing a more detailed analysis of attitudes, such as beliefs and a way in which consent is accepted and observed. Another suggestion will be the validation of the translation of the Sexual Beliefs Scale into Portuguese.
