Vários estudos, em famílias com filhos em faixas etárias distintas, reportam que, quando existe
uma boa comunicação e um bom leque de recursos para lidar com as dificuldades e
adversidades no seio familiar, os pais tendem a sentir-se mais eficazes e mais satisfeitos no seu
papel, sentindo-se mais competentes no geral. Este estudo pretende assim entender qual a
relação entre o funcionamento familiar e o sentido de competência parental em pais de crianças
em idade escolar (6-9 anos). Para a sua concretização recorreu-se a uma amostra composta por
154 mães e 19 pais de 173 crianças com uma média de idade de 7.64 (DP = 1.146). Os pais/mães
que participaram preencheram um questionário sociodemográfico bem como as versões
portuguesas do Systemic Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation (SCORE-15) e da Parenting
Sense of Competence Scale (PSOC). Inicialmente, através da correlação de Pearson, foi possível
concluir que, quanto melhor o funcionamento familiar em qualquer umas das suas três
dimensões (comunicação, recursos e dificuldades), melhor é o sentido de competência parental,
tanto a nível da eficácia como da satisfação. De seguida, os resultados das regressões lineares
múltiplas demonstraram que os recursos que a família possui e a forma como lida com as
adversidades predizem tanto a satisfação como a autoeficácia percecionada pelos pais. Este
estudo contribuiu para a análise do funcionamento familiar e do sentido de competência
parental percecionado por mães/pais portugueses com filhos em idade escolar e fortaleceu as
características psicométricas das versões portuguesas do SCORE-15 e da PSOC.
Several studies, in families with children in different age groups, report that when there is good communication and a good range of resources to deal with difficulties and adversities within the family, parents tend to feel more effective and more satisfied in their role, feeling more competent in general. This study aims to understand the relationship between family functioning and the sense of parental competence in parents of school-age children (6-9 years). For its realization, a sample composed of 154 mothers and 19 fathers of 173 children with an average age of 7.64 (DP = 1,146) was used. The fathers/mothers who participated completed a sociodemographic questionnaire as well as the portuguese versions of the Systemic Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation (SCORE-15) and the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale (PSOC). Initially, through Pearson's correlation, it was possible to conclude that the better the family functioning in any of its three dimensions (communication, resources and difficulties), the better the sense of parental competence, both in terms of efficacy and satisfaction. Then, the results of multiple linear regressions demonstrated that the resources that the family has and the way it deals with adversity predict both satisfaction and self-efficacy perceived by parents. This study contributed to the analysis of family functioning and the sense of parental competence perceived by portuguese mothers/fathers with school-age children and strengthened the psychometric characteristics of the portuguese versions of SCORE-15 and PSOC.
