Abstract(s)
A violência conjugal é um fenómeno transversal com um impacto negativo na saúde física e mental das mulheres. Este estudo caracteriza o impacto dos diferentes tipos de abuso da violência conjugal, na sintomatologia de stress pós-traumático (PTSD), no stress e suporte social. A amostra é constituída por 65 mulheres, vítimas de violência conjugal, atendidas na Associação Portuguesa de Apoio à Vítima de Braga (APAV). Os instrumentos aplicados foram: Questionário Sócio-Demográfico; Escala de Auto-Relato de Sintomatologia de PTSD (PSS-SR); Questionário de Conservação de Recursos (COR-E); Escala de Suporte Social (SPS) e Escalas Táticas de Conflito Revisadas (CTS2). Os resultados indicam que os tipos de abuso se correlacionam. Existem diferenças significativas ao nível da sintomatologia de PTSD entre as vítimas e as não vítimas de coerção sexual. Encontram-se correlações positivas entre os diferentes tipos de abuso, a sintomatologia de PTSD e os indicadores de stress e a existência de correlações negativas entre os tipos de abuso e o suporte social. Torna-se importante a realização de estratégias de prevenção e intervenção psicológica no âmbito da PTSD e no aumento dos recursos e o desenvolvimento de estudos para a implementação de medidas legais que apoiem a vítima.
