Resumo
O presente estudo tem como objetivo explorar a associação entre a consciência crítica e crenças meritocráticas, e adicionalmente compreender o seu impacto na sensibilidade multicultural e capacidade de detetar microagressões. Método: A amostra inclui 64 participantes, 49 (76.6%) do género feminino, 10 (15.6%) género masculino, 2 (3.1%) não binário, 1 (1.6%) outro, com idades compreendidas entre os 19 e os 56 anos (M = 29.5, DP = 10.8). Como instrumentos foram utilizados: a Contemporary Critical Consciousness Measure (CCCM); Short Critical Consciousness Scale (ShoCC); Perceptions Meritocracy Exists Scale (PME); Inventário de Desigualdade Percebida (IDP-R); Cenários para Deteção de Microagressões e Avaliação da Sensibilidade Multicultural; Resultado: Observou-se uma associação significativa entre níveis superiores de consciência crítica das desigualdades sociais, baixa preferência e crenças meritocráticas e níveis superiores de deteção de microagressões e sensibilidade multicultural. Conclusões: Os resultados destacam a relevância da promoção da consciência crítica e da consciência de classe nos contextos de intervenção, incentivando o remodelamento do ensino e formação do/as profissionais destas áreas, inovando a intervenção e interação com minorias e grupos marginalizados.

The present aims to explore the association between critical consciousness and meritocratic beliefs and understand its impact on multicultural sensitivity and the ability to detect microaggressions. Method: The sample included 64 participants, 49 (76.6%) female, 10 (15.6%) male, 2 (3.1%) non-binary, 1 (1.6%) other, and aged from 19 to 56 years (M = 29.5, DP = 10.8). The following instruments were used: a Contemporary Critical Consciousness Measure (CCCM); Short Critical Consciousness Scale (ShoCC); Perceptions Meritocracy Exists Scale (PME); Perceived Inequality Inventory (IDP-R); Scenarios for Microaggression Scan and Multicultural Sensitivity Assessment; Results: A significant association was observed between higher levels of critical awareness of social inequalities, low preference and meritocratic beliefs, and higher levels of microaggression and multicultural sensitivity. Conclusions: The results highlight the relevance of promoting critical awareness and class awareness in the contexts of intervention, encouraging the remodelling of the teaching and training of professionals in these areas, and innovating the intervention and interaction with minorities and marginalized groups. Keywords: Critical Consciousness; Microaggressions; Meritocracy; Intersectionality; Cross-cultural Skills
