Abstract(s)
Este estudo procurou identificar fatores associados à vitimização e perpetração de comportamentos abusivos no namoro em contexto digital (ciberabuso), e explorar o impacto da difusão de informação nas redes sociais sobre as perceções acerca de relacionamentos saudáveis e abusivos. A amostra incluiu 103 participantes (70% mulheres, com idades entre 18 e 25 anos) submetidos a um questionário que avaliou a utilização das redes sociais, experiências de ciberabuso (Questionário sobre Ciberabuso no Namoro) e níveis de ciúme digital (Digital Jealousy Scale e um questionário sobre ciúme romântico). Aproximadamente 44% dos participantes despendem 2-4 horas diárias nas redes sociais e 25% mais de 4 horas. Cerca de 49.5% reporta ter sido vítima ou perpetrador de ciberabuso em algum momento da vida. No último ano, 29.1% refere ter sido vítima e 26.2% admite ter perpetrado pelo menos um comportamento de ciberabuso. O ciúme associou-se ao tempo despendido nas redes sociais: quem despende mais de 4 horas por dia reportou mais ciúmes, por comparação com quem passou menos tempo online (p=0.047). Vítimas e perpetradores de controlo e agressão direta apresentaram mais ciúme digital, comparativamente com quem não experienciou estes tipos de ciberabuso. Os resultados sugerem que a difusão online de informações sobre violência no namoro influencia as perceções dos jovens sobre relacionamentos, embora nem todos alterem comportamentos (42.8%). No geral, os dados apontam para um efeito desestabilizador do uso das redes sociais nas dinâmicas relacionais.
This study aimed to identify factors associated with the victimization and perpetration of abusive behaviors in romantic relationships within a digital context (cyber dating abuse), and to explore the impact of information dissemination on social media on young people's perceptions of healthy and abusive relationships. The sample consisted of 103 participants (70% women, aged between 18 and 25 years) who completed a questionnaire assessing social media use, experiences of cyber dating abuse (Cyber Dating Abuse Questionnaire), and levels of digital jealousy (Digital Jealousy Scale and a questionnaire on romantic jealousy). Approximately 44% of participants reported spending 2–4 hours per day on social media, and 25% spent more than 4 hours. Around 49.5% reported having been either a victim or perpetrator of cyber dating abuse at some point in their lives. In the past year, 29.1% reported being victims, while 26.2% admitted to having perpetrated at least one abusive behavior. Jealousy was associated with time spent on social media: participants who spent more than 4 hours per day online reported higher levels of jealousy compared to those who spent less time (p=0.047). Victims and perpetrators of controlling behaviors and direct aggression reported higher levels of digital jealousy than those who had not experienced these forms of cyber abuse. The results suggest that the online dissemination of information about dating violence influences young people's perceptions of relationships, although not all report changes in behavior (42.8%). Overall, the results point to a destabilizing effect of social media use on relational dynamics.
