Resumo
As práticas informadas pelo trauma assumem uma elevada importância no sistema de promoção e proteção, dado que estão associadas a maiores níveis de bem-estar e resiliência das crianças e jovens, reduzindo assim o impacto das experiências de violência e mau-trato na infância. Este estudo pretendeu adaptar e validar para o contexto português a escala ARTIC-35 numa amostra de profissionais do sistema de promoção e proteção, explorando a sua validade concorrente e analisando as diferenças entre os profissionais. Participaram 198 profissionais dos serviços de promoção e proteção, acolhimento residencial e familiar. Os dados foram recolhidos através de um questionário online, que avaliou as atitudes relacionadas com os cuidados informados pelo trauma (ARTIC-35), o stress, o bem-estar psicológico, a satisfação com o trabalho e a despersonalização. Apesar de não ter sido replicada a estrutura original de 5 fatores do ARTIC-35, o modelo de 4 fatores revelou um ajustamento razoável. Estas dimensões revelaram correlacionar-se com o bem-estar subjetivo, a satisfação no trabalho, e a despersonalização. Para além disso, foram encontradas diferenças entre os profissionais a exercer funções em diferentes entidades do sistema de promoção e proteção. Espera-se que este estudo contribua para o conhecimento acerca das práticas informadas pelo trauma nestes contextos, e que possa vir a informar o desenho de políticas públicas e protocolos de atuação na área da proteção de crianças e jovens.
Trauma-informed care hold significant importance within the child protection and welfare system, as they are associated with higher levels of well-being and resilience in children and adolescents, thereby mitigating the impact of violence and maltreatment experienced during childhood. This study aimed to adapt and validate the ARTIC-35 scale for the Portuguese context in a sample of professionals from the child protection and welfare system, exploring its concurrent validity and analyzing differences between professionals. A total of 198 professionals from child protection services, residential and foster care participated in the study. Data were collected through an online questionnaire that assessed attitudes related to trauma-informed care (ARTIC-35), stress, psychological well-being, job satisfaction, and depersonalization. Although the original 5-factor structure of the ARTIC-35 was not replicated, the 4-factor model demonstrated reasonable fit. These dimensions were found to correlate with subjective well-being, job satisfaction, and depersonalization. Furthermore, differences were identified among professionals working in various entities within the child protection and welfare system. It is expected that this study will contribute to the understanding of trauma-informed practices in these contexts and may inform the development of public policies and operational protocols in the field of child and youth protection.
