Esta tese versa sobre o tema dos maus tratos às crianças na família. Pretende contribuir para a compreensão do sistema de promoção dos direitos e proteção de
crianças e jovens em risco em Portugal, analisando as dinâmicas de intervenção de uma CPCJ e a perspetiva dos profissionais que nela atuam quer em relação ao sistema de proteção em si mesmo, quer relativamente às famílias intervencionadas, quer ainda quanto aos desafios que se colocam aos profissionais no âmbito das intervenções.
Em termos teóricos, a família tem sido estuda por várias disciplinas e à luz de diferentes quadros teóricos. Em termos metodológicos situamo-nos num paradigma qualitativo compreensivo, adotando-se uma estratégia mista tendo o foco da análise incidido sobre as práticas dos profissionais e as suas perspetivas sobre o processo de intervenção (estratégia qualitativa) e relacionar o perfil destas famílias com o tipo de mau trato a que as crianças foram sujeitas e analisar as relações e correspondências do
tipo de maus tratos com as características destas famílias (estratégia quantitativa).
A partir das opções metodológicas assumidas, foram combinadas técnicas de análise quantitativa e qualitativa dos resultados. Num primeiro momento analisou-se
a base de dados criada a partir do recenseamento dos processos ativos até 31 de Dezembro de 2014, com recurso ao programa Statistical Package for the Social
Sciences (SPSS), versão 24.0, através da análise de frequências e tabelas de referência cruzada. Num segundo momento procedeu-se à análise da informação
recolhida no pelo focus group. Após a transcrição integral dos registos áudio, os textos foram objeto de análise de conteúdo, desta vez, temática.
Os dados do estudo enquadram a perspetiva dos técnicos sobre a intervenção
no âmbito da função capacitadora e pedagógica que a advocacia prevê, na adopção de uma atitude que incide nas capacidades de cada pessoa, na ativação de recursos e na vigilância social que é feita no que respeita à vida destas famílias e crianças. Em relação às famílias intervencionadas os técnicos identificam o comportamento
parental negligente das famílias como a principal característica e os desafios
identificados em relação à intervenção vão de encontro aos desafios identificados por
Healy (2012).
This research project deals with the issue of child abuse in the family. It aims to contribute to the understanding of rights promotion system and protection of children and young people at risk in Portugal, studying the dynamics of CPCJ intervention and the perspective of the professionals who work on it, regarding the protection system itself related to the families involved, as well as the challenges faced by professionals in their interventions. The main theoretical references about family has been studied by various disciplines and in the light of different theoretical frameworks. In methodological terms, we place ourselves in a comprehensive qualitative paradigm, adopting a mixed strategy with the focus of the analysis focused on the professionals' practices and their perspectives on the intervention process (qualitative strategy) and relate the profile of these families to the type of maltreatment that children were subjected to, also analyze the relation and correspondence of the mistreatment type with the family characteristics (quantitative strategy). From the methodological options assumed, techniques of quantitative and qualitative analysis of the results were combined. First, the database created from the census of the active processes until 31 December 2014 was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS), version 24.0, through the analysis of frequencies and tables of cross reference. In a second moment the information collected in the focus group was analyzed. After the complete transcription of the audio recordings, the texts were object of content analysis, this time, thematic. The data of the study frames the perspective of the technicians on the intervention in the scope of the enabling and pedagogical function that the law provides, adopting an attitude that focuses on the capacities of each person, the activation of resources and the social surveillance that is done in life of these families and children. In relation to the intervention families the technicians identify the negligent parental behavior as the main characteristic, and the identified challenges related to the intervention, meet the challenges identified by Healy (2012).
