Resumo(s)
O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a relação entre mobilidade social subjetiva, estratégias de coping, satisfação no trabalho e sintomas de ansiedade e depressão em imigrantes brasileiros residentes em Portugal. Participaram 40 imigrantes brasileiros (57,5% mulheres; idade média = 31,25 anos),que responderam à Escala de Estatuto Social Subjetivo de MacArthur (online), relativa à posição social percebida no Brasil, e em Portugal, a Escala de Perturbação de Ansiedade Generalizada (GAD-7), o Inventário de Depressão de Beck (BDI), o Brief COPE e a Escala de Satisfação no Trabalho. A maioria dos participantes (72,5%) percecionou uma mobilidade social descendente após a imigração. Participantes com mobilidade ascendente apresentaram valores mais elevados de sintomatologia depressiva (M = 26,60, DP = 19,32 no BDI), comparativamente aos grupos que mantiveram o estatuto (M = 8,17, DP = 2,40) e descendente (M = 15,34, DP = 10,11, F(2,37) = 3,96, p = 0,028).. O evitamento foi a única estratégia de coping correlacionada com o sofrimento psicológico (ρ = 0,609 com o BDI; ρ = 0,564 com o GAD-7, ambos p < 0,05). Os resultados sublinham a complexidade da relação entre mobilidade social subjetiva e saúde mental em contexto migratório, sugerindo os custos psicológicos associados à mobilidade descendente, e ascendente.
The objective of this study was to analyze the relationship between subjective social mobility, coping strategies, job satisfaction, and symptoms of anxiety and depression among Brazilian immigrants living in Portugal. Forty Brazilian immigrants (57.5% women; mean age = 31.25 years) participated in the study. They completed the MacArthur Subjective Social Status Scale (online), which assesses perceived social status in Brazil and Portugal, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD- 7), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Brief COPE, and the Job Satisfaction Scale. Most participants (72.5%) perceived downward social mobility after immigration. Participants who experienced upward mobility had higher scores on depressive symptoms (M = 26.60, SD = 19.32 on the BDI) compared to those who maintained their status (M = 8.17, SD = 2.40) and those who experienced downward mobility (M = 15.34, SD = 10.11, F(2,37) = 3.96, p = 0.028). Avoidance was the only coping strategy correlated with psychological distress (ρ = 0.609 with the BDI; ρ = 0.564 with the GAD-7, both p < 0.05). The results highlight the complexity of the relationship between subjective social mobility and mental health in a migratory context, suggesting the psychological costs associated with both downward and upward mobility.
