Resumo
Os profissionais que trabalham nas Comissões de Proteção de Crianças e Jovens
(CPCJ) têm um papel fundamental na identificação, prevenção e redução do risco
psicossocial de crianças e jovens sinalizados, tomando regularmente decisões cruciais que
devem estar fundamentadas na prática baseada na evidência. O presente estudo teve três
objetivos, sendo o primeiro objetivo descrever as atitudes sobre as práticas baseadas na
evidencia de técnicos das equipas da Comissão Restrita de Proteção de Crianças e Jovens
(CRPCJ). O segundo objetivo prendeu-se com a análise das associações entre a autoeficácia
no processo de tomada de decisão, atitudes sobre as práticas baseadas na evidencia e
características profissionais e laborais dos técnicos das CRPCJ. Por fim o terceiro objetivo
foi examinar se existiam diferenças ao nível das atitudes sobre as práticas baseadas na
evidência e autoeficácia no processo de tomada de decisão em função do sexo, número de
casos distribuídos e número de anos de experiência profissional. A amostra foi constituída
por 91 participantes, sendo 92% do género feminino. A idade dos participantes variou entre
os 21 e 64 anos de idade. Foi conduzido um inquérito online na plataforma Qualtrics para
a recolha de dados. Globalmente, os resultados demonstraram que os técnicos apresentaram
atitudes positivas face à implementação de uma prática baseada na evidência. Quanto ao
segundo objetivo, os resultados demonstraram que as atitudes sobre as práticas baseadas na
evidência e a autoeficácia no processo de tomada de decisão não estavam significativamente
associadas. No que concerne às atitudes sobre a prática baseada na evidência e à sobrecarga
laboral, as mesmas, demonstraram uma correlação negativa. Por sua vez, a autoeficácia no
processo de tomada de decisão apresentou uma correlação positiva forte com as
competências percebidas de avaliação diagnóstica e uma correlação positiva moderada com
a satisfação laboral. Por fim, não foram encontradas diferenças nas atitudes sobre as práticas
baseadas na evidência e na autoeficácia no processo tomada de decisão em função do género,
educação e tempo em anos como membro das comissões restritas da CPCJ.
The professionals who work in the Commission for the Protection of Children and Young People (CPCJ) have a fundamental role identifying, preventing and reducing the psychosocial risk of children and young people flagged, regularly taking crucial decisions that must be based on evidence-based practice. The present study had three objectives, the first is to describe the attitudes towards practices based on the evidence of technicians from the Restricted Commission for the Protection of Children and Young People (CRPCJ) teams. The second objective was to analyze the associations between self-efficacy in the making decisions process, attitudes towards evidence based practices and professional and work characteristics of CRPCJ technicians. Finally, the third objective was to examine whether there were differences in terms of attitudes towards evidence based practices and selfefficacy in the making decisions process according to gender, number of cases distributed and number of years of professional experience. The sample consisted of 91 participants, 92% of whom are female. The age of participants ranged from 21 to 64 years old. An online survey was conducted on the Qualtrics platform for data collection. Overall, the results showed that technicians had positive attitudes towards the implementation of an evidence based practice. As for the second objective, the results showed that attitudes towards evidence based practices and self-efficacy in the making decision process were not significantly associated. Regarding to attitudes about evidence based practice and work overload, they showed a negative correlation. In turn, self-efficacy in the making decisions process showed a strong positive correlation with perceived diagnostic assessment skills and a moderate positive correlation with job satisfaction. Finally, no differences were found in attitudes towards evidence based practices and self-efficacy in the making decisions process as a function of gender, education and time in years as a member of the CPCJ's restricted committees.
