As relações amorosas desempenham um papel essencial no desenvolvimento pessoal e social, designadamente na fase de vida do jovem adulto. A presente dissertação teve como objetivos validar a versão portuguesa da Escala de Competência Romântica (ECR) e analisar as relações entre a competência romântica, as competências socioemocionais, o bem-estar individual e a satisfação nas relações de namoro em jovens adultos. Propôs-se igualmente compreender o papel de fatores relacionais como a segurança, a confiança e o medo de rejeição no funcionamento emocional e afetivo deste grupo etário. O trabalho desenvolveu-se em dois estudos complementares. O Estudo 1 visou o desenvolvimento e a validação psicométrica da versão portuguesa da ECR. A análise fatorial confirmou uma estrutura bifatorial, composta pelas dimensões de Inteligência Relacional e Consciência e Regulação Emocional e Comportamental, tendo-se verificado elevados índices de consistência interna e fiabilidade. Estes resultados confirmam a adequação da escala e a sua relevância para a avaliação da competência romântica em jovens adultos portugueses. O Estudo 2 explorou as associações entre competência romântica, competências socioemocionais, bem-estar e satisfação relacional. Verificaram-se correlações positivas entre estas variáveis, indicando que níveis mais elevados de competência romântica e socioemocional associam-se a maior bem-estar individual e satisfação nas relações. A competência romântica revelou uma associação positiva significativa com a satisfação na relação, levantando pistas sobre o seu papel protetor e potencialmente mediador no ajustamento relacional. A segurança, a confiança e o medo de rejeição mostraram-se igualmente associados ao modo como os jovens adultos experienciam e gerem as suas relações. De uma forma geral, este trabalho aprofunda o conhecimento sobre as dinâmicas amorosas em jovens adultos portugueses, validando um instrumento inovador e reforçando a importância das competências emocionais e relacionais na promoção do bem-estar e da saúde psicológica. Os resultados apontam ainda para a pertinência de intervenções centradas no desenvolvimento destas competências, essenciais à construção de relações afetivas saudáveis e satisfatórias.
Romantic relationships play an essential role in personal and social development, particularly during the young adult stage of life. The present dissertation aimed to validate the Portuguese version of the Romantic Competence Scale (RCS) and to analyze the relationships between romantic competence, socioemotional competencies, individual wellbeing, and relationship satisfaction among young adults. It was also proposed to understand the role of relational factors such as security, trust, and fear of rejection in the emotional and affective functioning of this age group. The research was developed through two complementary studies. Study 1 aimed to develop and psychometrically validate the Portuguese version of the RCS. Factor analysis confirmed a two-factor structure, composed of the dimensions Relational Intelligence and Emotional and Behavioral Awareness-Regulation, with high internal consistency and reliability indices. These results confirm the adequacy of the scale and its relevance for assessing romantic competence among Portuguese young adults. Study 2 explored the associations between romantic competence, socioemotional competencies, well-being, and relationship satisfaction. Positive correlations were found among these variables, indicating that higher levels of romantic and socioemotional competence are associated with greater individual well-being and relationship satisfaction. Romantic competence showed a significant positive association with relationship satisfaction, suggesting its protective and potentially mediating role in relational adjustment. Security, trust, and fear of rejection were also found to be associated with how young adults experience and manage their relationships. Overall, this work deepens the understanding of romantic dynamics among Portuguese young adults, by validating an innovative instrument and reinforcing the importance of emotional and relational skills in promoting well-being and psychological health. The results also highlight the relevance of interventions focused on developing these competencies, which are essential for building healthy and satisfying affective relationships.
