Abstract(s)
Objetivo: esta investigação contém a pesquisa e os procedimentos metodológicos efetuados, para a compreensão das relações entre ajustamento psicológico, empowerment e suporte social numa amostra de várias doenças crónicas reumáticas. O estudo focou-se também na análise da influência do tempo de diagnóstico, nas dimensões em estudo. Por fim, comparou-se também a saúde mental, o suporte social e o empowerment no grupo de doentes com Artrite Reumatoide e com Fibromialgia.
Método: para a recolha de dados deste trabalho, foi utilizado o protocolo de investigação correspondente ao estudo CRON 2016, e participaram neste estudo 80 pessoas com doenças crónicas reumáticas. Os dados foram recolhidos com os utentes da consulta de Reumatologia do Hospital Amato Lusitano – Castelo Branco.
Resultados: os resultados demonstram associações entre os níveis de ajustamento psicológico o empowerment e o suporte social. Os componentes do suporte social: índice global de suporte social, apoio social informativo e apoio social instrumental encontram-se associados de forma consistente com bastantes dimensões de ajustamento psicológico, principalmente a somatização, a depressão a ansiedade, a ansiedade fóbica e com o índice geral de psicopatologia. O mesmo aconteceu com o empowerment. O tempo de diagnóstico parece também influenciar o empowerment percebido, e existiram possíveis diferenças nos componentes em estudo entre os doentes com Fibromialgia e Artrite Reumatóide. É apresentada uma discussão dos resultados e das suas implicações práticas.
