Abstract(s)
A entrada para a universidade constitui uma das etapas mais importantes no desenvolvimento
de um indivíduo. A universidade é um espaço de aprendizagem, de desenvolvimento de
competências e habilidades, mas também é um período caraterizado pela adaptação do
indivíduo a uma nova realidade, que é a vida universitária. Isto é, a entrada para a universidade
implica muitas mudanças, como por exemplo, estar longe de casa ou fazer novas amizades. Este
período por vezes pode ser vivenciado como stressante, levando a que os estudantes possam
responder de uma forma menos adequada aos problemas e até com agressividade perante
situações inesperadas, o que pode ter impacto no bem-estar dos estudantes. Assim, este estudo
propõe avaliar a questão da satisfação com a vida e a agressividade em estudantes do ensino
universitário, uma vez que os jovens são o futuro do amanhã, e deste modo, é necessário
entender onde se pode contribuir para um melhor desenvolvimento destes. Participantes:
Este estudo carateriza-se por ter uma amostra de dois países, Portugal e Espanha, resultando
num total de 475 estudantes universitários, dos quais 226 (47.6%) são de nacionalidade
portuguesa e 249 (52.4%) são de nacionalidade espanhola. Cerca de 73.5% dos participantes são
do sexo feminino e 26.5% do sexo masculino. Os participantes apresentam idades
compreendidas entre os 17 e os 24 anos de idade. Instrumentos: Versão Portuguesa do
Questionário de Agressão de Buss e Perry e a versão portuguesa da Escala de Satisfação com a
Vida de Diener e colaboradores. Resultados: maiores níveis de perceção de satisfação com a
vida estão associados com menores níveis de agressão; estudantes espanhóis apresentam níveis
mais elevados de satisfação com a vida e de agressão em comparação com os estudantes
portugueses e o sexo masculino apresenta valores mais elevados de satisfação com a vida e de
agressão.
Entrance to the university is one of the most important stages in an individual's development. The university is a space for learning, for developing skills and abilities, but it is also a period characterized by the adaptation of the individual to a new reality, which is university life. That is, entry to the university implies many changes, such as being away from home or making new friends. This period can sometimes be experienced as stressful, leading students to respond less adequately to problems and even aggressively in the face of unexpected situations, which can have an impact on students' well-being. Thus, this study proposes to evaluate the question of satisfaction with life and aggression in university students, since young people are the future of tomorrow, and therefore, it is necessary to understand where one can contribute to their better development. Participants: This study is characterized by having a sample of two countries, Portugal and Spain, resulting in a total of 475 university students, of which 226 (47.6%) are Portuguese and 249 (52.4%) are Spanish. About 73.5% of the participants are female and 26.5% male. Participants are aged between 17 and 24 years old. Instruments: Buss and Perry's Aggression Questionnaire portuuese version and Diener and collaborators' Life Satisfaction Scale portuguese version. Results: higher levels of perception of satisfaction with life are associated with lower levels of aggression; Spanish students have higher levels of satisfaction with life and aggression in comparation with Portuguese students and the male gender has higher values of satisfaction with life and aggression.
