Abstract(s)
O principal objetivo do presente estudo é perceber a vivência da gravidez e explorar a presença de sintomatologia ansiosa e depressiva num grupo de casais (homem e mulher) cuja gravidez resultou do recurso a técnicas de procriação medicamente assistida (PMA). Os instrumentos utilizados para a recolha de dados foram, no caso das mulheres, a Escala de Atitudes sobre a Gravidez e a Maternidade (EAGM), e no caso dos homens a Escala de Atitudes sobre a Gravidez e a Parentalidade (EAGP). A Escala Hospitalar de Ansiedade e Depressão (HADS) foi também utilizada para ambos os pais. Os principais resultados mostram que existem diferenças significativas entre os participantes deste estudo e da população em geral em algumas subescalas dos instrumentos referentes às atitudes sobre a parentalidade (EAGM e EAGP). Relativamente às subescalas da HADS, em relação à depressão não foram encontrados sintomas depressivos, já em relação à subescala ansiedade, foi possível identificar dois participantes do sexo masculino e seis participantes do sexo feminino com sintomas ansiosos. Não se verificaram diferenças significativas em relação às subescalas da HADS entre mulheres e homens. Foram também encontradas correlações positivas entre algumas subescalas das atitudes sobre gravidez e a parentalidade (EAGM e EAGP) e as subescalas da HADS.
The main objective of this study is to understand the experience of pregnancy and explore the presence of anxious and depressive symptoms in a group of couples (man and woman) whose pregnancy resulted from the use of assisted reproductive techniques (PMA). To evaluate these dimensions we used several scales. In the case of women, Attitudes Scale on Pregnancy and Maternity (EAGM) and, in case of men, the Scale of Attitudes about Pregnancy and Paternity (EAGP) were used. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to access both parents. The main results show that exist statistically significant differences between the participants of this study and the general population concerning of some subscales of attitudes about pregnancy and parenting (EAGM and EAGP). In The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) in the depression subscale was not found depression symptoms, for the subscale anxiety, it was possible to identify two male participants and six female participants with anxiety symptoms. There were no significant differences in relation to the HADS subscales between women and men. They were also found positive correlations between some subscales of attitudes about pregnancy and parenting (EAGM and EAGP) and the subscales of the HADS.
