Abstract(s)
A noção “falha cognitiva” foi originalmente apresentada por Broadbent, 1982,
procurando explicar como um fenómeno, considerado uma pequena alteração cognitiva,
conduz a que uma ação, física ou mental, fosse erradamente realizada resultando em algo
não espectável. Este conceito assume a capacidade subentendida da pessoa em realizar
uma determinada tarefa, mas face a determinados eventos ou circunstâncias, esta
capacidade pode sofrer alterações e torna-se algo deficitária. As falhas cognitivas podem
ocorrer ao nível da perceção, memória, planeamento e execução de determinada tarefa.
Por tal não devem ser consideradas como uma incapacidade do funcionamento
cognitivo, mas como resultante de uma exposição contínua a situações desfavoráveis nas
quais se podem manifestar sintomas internalizantes e externalizantes. Este estudo tem
como objetivo a análise das possíveis relações entre os sintomas internalizantes e
externalizantes e as falhas cognitivas.
Os principais resultados obtidos do estudo apontam para a existência de uma correlação
positiva entre a vivência de falhas cognitivas e sintomatologia internalizante e
externalizante, sendo a relação entre falhas cognitivas e sintomas externalizantes mais
preponderante. Relativamente às variáveis como género, habilitações literárias, estado
civil e diagnóstico positivo à Covid-19, não foram evidenciadas correlações significativas
entre as variáveis e a possível existência de falhas cognitivas. Contudo, no que concerne
à vivência de sintomas internalizantes e externalizantes, observou-se que variáveis como
estado civil e existência de filhos, promovem diferenças estatisticamente significativas.
The definition of “cognitive fail” was originally presented by Broadbent, 1982, seeking to explain how a phenomenon that considers a small cognitive change, leads to an action, physical or mental, being wrongly performed, resulting into something not expected. This concept assumes the person´s implicit ability to perform a certain task, but due to certain events or circumstances, this ability may change and become somewhat deficient. According to scientific knowledge, cognitive failures can occur in terms of perception, memory, planning and execution of a given task. Therefore, they should not be considered as an impairment of cognitive functioning, but as a result of continuous exposure to unfavourable situations in which internalizing and externalizing symptoms can manifest. This study aims to analyse the possible relationships between internalizing and externalizing symptoms and cognitive fails. The main results obtained from the study point to the existence of a positive correlation between the experience of cognitive failures and internalizing and externalizing symptoms, with the relationship between cognitive failures and externalizing symptoms being more prevalent. Regarding variables such as gender, educational qualifications, marital status and positive diagnosis of Covid-19, there were no significant correlations between the variables and the possible existence of cognitive failures. However, regarding the experience of internalizing and externalizing symptoms, it was observed that variables such as marital status and existence of children, promote statistically significant differences.
