Abstract(s)
O presente estudo quantitativo tem como principal objetivo conhecer a perceção dos
adolescentes em relação a homossexualidade, deste modo foi estudada uma amostra de 166
sujeitos, 106 do sexo feminino e do 64 do sexo masculino, com idades compreendidas entre os
15 e os 19 anos, com o recurso de três instrumentos: Escala Multidimensional de Atitudes face
a lésbicas e a gays (EMAFLG), Escala de Crenças Explicativas acerca da Natureza da
Homossexualidade (ECEANH) e o Questionário Sociodemográfico. Os resultados obtidos a
nível da análise descritiva demonstraram que existe maior prevalência de crenças psicossociais
e atitudes de suporte. Na análise inferencial em função do sexo, foi possível percecionar que as
atitudes negativas de carater flagrante e subtil são mais prevalentes nos participantes do sexo
masculino, enquanto as atitudes de suporte são mais prevalentes nos participantes do sexo
feminino; no que concerne as crenças os participantes do sexo masculino revelaram valores
mais altos na subescala de Crenças Psicossociais, Biológicas e Psicológicas. Na análise
inferencial em função do ano de escolaridade, foi possível verificar que os alunos do 10º ano
evidenciam valores mais altos nas atitudes negativas flagrantes e subtis, em comparação com
os alunos do 11º e 12ºano. Na análise inferencial em função da religião foi possível percecionar
que os participantes com afiliação religiosa manifestavam valores mais altos de atitudes
negativas, do que os participantes sem afiliação religiosa. Deste modo, os resultados obtidos
estiveram, no geral, de acordo com o esperado e foram discutidos com base na literatura, tendo
em consideração as suas implicações para a prevenção e intervenção nesta problemática.
The main objective of this study is to know the perception of adolescents in relation to homosexuality, thus we studied a sample of 166 subjects, 106 females and 64 males, aged between 15 and 19 years, with the Tree instruments feature: Escala Multidimensional de Atitudes face a lésbicas e a gays (EMAFLG), Escala de Crenças Explicativas acerca da Natureza da Homossexualidade (ECEANH) and the Sociodemografic Questionarie. The results obtained from the descriptive analysis showed that there is a higher prevalence of psychosocial beliefs and supportive attitudes. In the inferential analysis based on sex, it was possible to notice that negative attitudes of a flagrant and subtle nature are more prevalent in male participants, while supporting attitudes are more prevalent in female participants; with regard to beliefs, male participants revealed higher values in the Psychosocial, Biological and Psychological Beliefs subscale. In the inferential analysis according to the year of schooling, it was possible to verify that students in the 10th grade showed higher values in flagrant and subtle negative attitudes than students in the 11th and 12th grades. In the inferential analysis according to religion it was possible to notice that the participants with religious affiliation showed higher values of negative attitudes, than the participants without religious affiliation. Thus, the results obtained were generally as expected and were discussed based on the literature, taking into consideration their implications for prevention and intervention in this problem.
