Abstract(s)
Com o principal objetivo de estudar o impacto da Covid-19 na autoestima e na
satisfação com a imagem corporal em adolescentes portugueses, bem como caracterizar
a amostra tendo em conta as variáveis principais e as suas características
sociodemográficas, recorreu-se a uma amostra de 311 adolescentes, 202 do género
feminino e 109 do género masculino, com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18
anos.
Os instrumentos utilizados para analisar as variáveis principais foram a Escala
de Autoestima de Rosenberg e o Questionário de Satisfação com a Imagem Corporal.
Os resultados obtidos demonstram que quanto mais elevada a autoestima, mais
elevada a satisfação com a imagem corporal dos adolescentes. Para além disso, os
jovens percecionavam níveis superiores de autoestima antes da Covid-19
comparativamente com o período pós-Covid-19, o que significa que a autoestima foi
impactada negativamente com a Covid-19.
O facto deste estudo avaliar a autoestima e a satisfação com a imagem corporal
dos adolescentes, atendendo às suas perceções antes da Covid-19 e aquilo que sentem
no pós-Covid-19 assume-se como um enorme contributo para a literatura, dada a
importância dos construtos mencionados e da relevância de estudar o impacto da Covid19 nos mesmos.
With the main goal of studying the impact of Covid-19 on self-esteem and satisfaction with body image in Portuguese adolescents, as well as characterizing the sample considering the main variables and their sociodemographic characteristics, was used a sample of 311 teenagers, 202 female and 109 male, aged between 12 and 18. The instruments used to analyze the main variables were the Rosenberg SelfEsteem Scale and the Body Image Satisfaction Questionnaire. The obtained results demonstrate that the higher the self-esteem, the higher the satisfaction with the adolescents' body image. In addition to that, it stands out the fact that young people perceived higher levels of self-esteem before Covid-19 compared to the post-Covid-19 period, which means that Covid-19 had a negative impact on selfesteem. The fact that this study assesses adolescents' self-esteem and satisfaction with the body image, considering their perceptions before Covid-19 and what they feel after Covid-19, is assumed to be a huge contribution to the literature, given the importance of the mentioned constructs and the relevance of studying the impact of Covid-19 on them.
