Abstract(s)
A importância da conjugalidade na vida adulta justifica o estudo de fatores que possam contribuir para a sua qualidade. Este artigo apresenta o desenvolvimento da Escala de Generatividade do Casal, versão portuguesa da Couple Generativity Scale de Bertoni, Parise e Iafrate (2012), bem como dados relativos à sua precisão e validade. Este questionário pretende avaliar a capacidade de o casal ultrapassar as fronteiras conjugais e cuidar também dos seus laços familiares e sociais. Com uma amostra de 406 adultos de ambos os sexos que se encontravam numa relação conjugal, foram identificadas qualidades psicométricas que encorajam a utilização da versão portuguesa. Os dados mostram que a estrutura unifatorial original se adequa à presente amostra, que a escala revela elevados níveis de precisão por consistência interna e que se evidenciam relações significativas da generatividade com outras variáveis importantes da conjugalidade, como ter filhos, a conceção da relação e a satisfação conjugal.
The importance of couple relationship in adult life justifies the study of factors that may contribute to its quality. This article presents the development of the Couple Generativity Scale, the Portuguese version of Bertoni's, Parise and Iafrate's (2012) Couple Generativity Scale, as well as data on its accuracy and validity. This questionnaire aims to assess the couple's ability to cross marital boundaries together and to care for their family and social ties. With a sample of 406 adults of both sexes in a marital relationship, good psychometric qualities were found which encourage their use in the Portuguese population. The data show that the original unifactorial structure fits the present sample, that the scale reveals high levels of precision for internal consistency and that significant relationships of generativity with other important variables of conjugality, such as having children, the conception of the relationship and conjugal satisfaction, are evident.
