Resumo
A investigação tem demonstrado que o conflito no subsistema conjugal é um tema central
de investigação sobre as relações familiares, dado o seu impacto no funcionamento
psicológico das crianças e dos restantes subsistemas familiares. No entanto, nenhum estudo
testou a associação entre as diferentes tipologias de resolução de conflito conjugal e os
diferentes tipos de estratégias de resolução de conflito coparental. O presente estudo teve
três objetivos. O primeiro foi identificar tipologias de funcionamento resolução do conflito
conjugal através de procedimentos de análise de clusters. No segundo objetivo pretendeu-se
testar se os clusters de resolução de conflito conjugal diferiam entre si em variáveis
sociodemográficas e relacionais, e, por fim, no terceiro objetivo, testou-se se os clusters
diferiam entre si ao nível do conflito coparental aberto e coberto e ao nível da perceção de
justiça na divisão de tarefas de cuidado do filho. A amostra foi composta por 272 mães
residentes em Portugal, com idades compreendidas entre os 20 e 51 anos de idade, com filhos
em idades compreendidas entre os 2 e 6 anos de idade. Usando um design transversal, foi
conduzido um inquérito online de recolha de dados, ao qual as participantes responderam a
questões referentemente às variáveis em estudo. Os resultados evidenciaram quatro
tipologias/perfis. Foi, igualmente, possível de observar que os perfis se diferenciaram entre
si na satisfação conjugal, satisfação sexual e risco de divórcio, bem como se distinguiram
entre si tanto ao nível do conflito coparental aberto, ao nível do conflito coparental coberto
(sabotagem coparental) e quer ao nível da perceção de justiça na divisão de tarefas de
cuidados da criança. As limitações e as implicações para a prática em Psicologia da Justiça
do presente estudo serão igualmente discutidas.
The result of the investigation is that conflict in the marital subsystem is a central theme of research on family relationships, given its impact on the psychological functioning of children and other family subsystems. However, no study has tested the association between different types of marital conflict resolution and different types of coparental conflict resolution strategies. The present study had three objectives. The first was to identify working typologies for marital conflict resolution through cluster analysis procedures. The second objective was to test whether the marital conflict resolution clusters differed from each other in sociodemographic and relational variables, and, finally, the third objective was to test whether the clusters differed from each other in terms of open and covered coparental conflict and at the level of the perception of justice on the division of child care tasks. The sample consisted of 272 mothers residing in Portugal, aged between 20 and 51 years old, with children aged between 2 and 6 years old. Using a cross-sectional design, an online data collection survey was conducted in which participants answered questions regarding the variables under study. The results showed four types/profiles. It was also possible to observe that the profiles differed from each other in terms of marital satisfaction, sexual satisfaction and risk of divorce, as well as being distinguished from each other both at the level of open coparental conflict, at the level of covered coparental conflict (coparental sabotage) and or at the level of the perception of justice on the division of child care talks. The limitations and implications for the Psychology of Justice practice of the present study will also be discussed.
