Resumo
A violência sexual tornou-se um dilema global da sociedade contemporânea. Revelou-se um
crime de género, do qual as mulheres são desproporcionalmente vítimas e os homens
maioritariamente os agressores. Tal evidência não anula a veracidade de que os homens
também sofrem de vitimização sexual por parte das mulheres. Um dos aspetos pertinentes
deste estudo, está relacionado com as elevadas taxas de atrito relativamente aos crimes
sexuais, sobretudo quando estes são cometidos por mulheres contra homens. Considerando a
pertinência da temática, o presente estudo teve como objetivo primordial contribuir para uma
melhor compreensão deste fenómeno. Pretendemos verificar se existiu um efeito de género e
do tipo de estímulo (violação contra homem versus violação contra mulher) na resposta
emocional subjetiva e psicofisiológica, sendo que para tal avaliámos a dilatação pupilar
recorrendo à técnica de Eye Tracking. A presente investigação provém de um estudo mais
amplo, contudo a atual dissertação engloba apenas os dados da amostra feminina.
Relativamente aos estímulos de violência sexual, as participantes apresentaram
significativamente mais nervosismo face à exposição ao filme de violação de homem por uma
mulher.
Sexual violence has become a global dilemma of contemporary society. It has turned out to be a gender crime, of which women are disproportionately victims and men are mostly aggressors. Such evidence does not negate the veracity that men also suffer from sexual victimization by women. One of the relevant aspects of this study is related to the high rates of attrition in relation to sexual crimes, especially when committed by women against men. Considering the pertinence of the theme, the present study had as main objective to contribute to a better understanding of this phenomenon. We intend to verify if there is a gender effect and the type of stimulus (rape against man versus rape against woman) in the subjective and psychophysiological emotional response, and for this we evaluated the pupil dilation using the technique of Eye Tracking. The present investigation comes from a larger study, however the present dissertation only includes data from the female sample. Concerning sexual violence stimuli, the participants were significantly more nervous about exposure to the film of a man's rape by a woman.
