Abstract(s)
Com o aparecimento da internet e o aumento constante da utilização e dos utilizadores da mesma, em maior número na população adolescente é possível que as relações entre pais e filhos se tenham alterado. Neste sentido, a presente investigação tem como objetivo analisar a relação entre a perceção da utilização problemática da internet e a vinculação aos pais. Recorreu-se a uma amostra não aleatória de conveniência de 307 adolescentes (52.1% do feminino) com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18 anos (M=14.25, DP=1.71). Foi administrado um protocolo que incluiu os seguintes instrumentos: Questionário sociodemográfico, Escala do Uso Generalizado Problemático da Internet 2 e o Inventory of parente and peer attachment (IPPA), ambos validados para a população portuguesa. Os resultados demonstraram que os adolescentes que fazem uma maior utilização problemática da internet, revelam menor Comunicação e Proximidade Afetiva, Aceitação e Compreensão na vinculação com os pais, revelando, por isso, um maior afastamento dos mesmos. Foram encontradas outras relações com variáveis sociodemográficas como: nível socioeconómico, sexo e idade dos adolescentes. Estes resultados vêm contribuir para a investigação nesta área, que é escassa, ajudando a refletir sobre as implicações que uma utilização problemática da internet pode ter na qualidade dos relacionamentos dos adolescentes, neste caso, com os pais.
With the emergence of the internet and the constant increase in its use and users, in greater numbers among the adolescent population, it is possible that relationships between parents and children have changed. In this sense, the present investigation aims to analyze the relationship between the perception of problematic internet use and attachment to parents. A non-random convenience sample of 307 adolescents (52.1% female) aged between 12 and 18 years old (M=14.25, SD=1.71) was used. A protocol was administered that included the following instruments: Sociodemographic questionnaire, Scale of Generalized Problematic Internet Use 2 and the Inventory of relative and peer attachment (IPPA), both validated for the Portuguese population. The results demonstrated that adolescents who make greater problematic use of the internet, reveal less Communication and Affective Closeness, Acceptance and Understanding in their connection with their parents, therefore revealing a greater distance from them. Other relationships were found with sociodemographic variables such as: socioeconomic level, sex and age of adolescents. These results contribute to research in this area, which is scarce, helping to reflect on the implications that problematic use of the internet can have on the quality of adolescents' relationships, in this case, with their parents.
