Abstract(s)
O presente estudo pretendia perceber se existiam diferenças de sintomatologia
psicopatológica entre a população adita e a população normativa. Para tal, foi aplicado
o instrumento SCL-90-R, adaptado para a população portuguesa, a aditos em
internamento, numa comunidade terapêutica.
Anteriores estudos apontam para que os aditos tendam a ter presentes um maior
número de sintomas psicopatológicos, bem como, a literatura o confirma. Estas
diferenças entre aditos e não aditos estão muito ligadas pelos efeitos causados pelo
consumo de drogas, quer seja pelos danos físicos causados pelo consumo, quer seja
pelos danos psicológicos associados ao consumo de substâncias psicoativas. O uso de
drogas acaba por se tornar numa doença progressiva e mortal com danos devastadores
para o cerébro. Por norma, a população adita tende a demonstrar maiores sinais de
compulsão, hostilidade, obessão, ideação paranóide e depressão do que a população
normativa, ou não adita.
Os resultados obtidos por este estudo demonstram que os aditos obtiveram pontuações
superiores à população normativa de forma estatisticamente significativa. Entre as
dimensões do SCL-90-R em que a população adita pontuou de forma superior tem de
se destacar as dimensões da Depressão (M=1.677), Ideação Paranóide (M=1.524) e
Obsessão Compulsão (M=1.483).
The present study aimed to understand whether there were differences in psychopathological symptoms between the addicted population and the normative population. To this end, the SCL90-R instrument, adapted for the Portuguese population, was applied to inpatients in a therapeutic community. Previous studies indicate that addicts tend to have a greater number of psychopathological symptoms and the literature confirms this. These differences between addicts and non-addicts are closely linked to the effects caused by drug consumption, whether due to the physical damage caused by consumption of drugs or the psychological damage associated with the consumption of psychoactive substances. Drug use ends up becoming a progressive and deadly disease with devastating damage to the brain. As a rule, the addicted population tends to show greater signs of compulsion, hostility, obsession, paranoid ideation and depression than the normative or non-addicted population. The results obtained by this study demonstrate that the addicts obtained scores higher than the normative population in a statistically significant way. As a highlight, among the dimensions of the SCL-90-R in which the addicted population scored higher, there are the dimensions of Depression (M=1,677), Paranoid Ideation (M=1,524) and Obsession Compulsion (M=1,483).
