- Epistemologia e prática da mediação: por uma cultura de pazPublication . Cunha, Pedro; Monteiro, Ana PaulaProcuramos analisar a estreita relação estabelecida entre a existência de conflito, a procura da paz e a mediação, entendida esta hoje, em Portugal, como uma atividade socioprofissional com múltiplas formas de abordagem, aplicável em distintos campos de atuação e passível de integrar diferentes modelos de intervenção. De fato, a mediação pode inscrever-se num amplo contexto de pacificação social, que pode tomar formas tão díspares como uma simples via alternativa de resolução de conflitos, um meio autêntico, eficaz e construtivo de resolução de conflitos, um importante modo de regulação social ou um verdadeiro modelo de intervenção social. Independentemente dessas circunstâncias que delimitam, simultaneamente, sua epistemologia e sua pragmática, a mediação preconiza, sem exceção, o empoderamento dos indivíduos que a procuram e a alteração das suas premissas conflituais iniciais para um acordo que se pretende “co-construído” pelos intervenientes. Muitas e pertinentes questões podem, assim, ser colocadas e isso é o que nos propomos debater.
- Interparental violence and development of antisocial behaviors in portuguese adolescentsPublication . Simões, Margarida; Teixeira, Ana; Sani, Ana Isabel; Monteiro, Ana Paula; Martins, José Soares; Relva, Inês CarvalhoJuvenile delinquency is one of the main problems of adolescents. The objective of the present investigation was to verify the relationship between antisocial behaviors, measured by the Antisocial Conduct Questionnaire (CCA) and witnessing interparental violence assessed through the Conflict Tactics Scales (CTS). The sample consisted of 671 adolescents (12 and 20 years old) from the northern region of Portugal. The results indicated that female adolescents revealed to have witnessed higher levels of psychological aggression, perpetrated by both father and mother, compared to males. The results suggest a positive association between emotional and physical violence perpetrated by parents and the different types of antisocial behaviors. Overall, it was found that the more exposed to interparental violence, the more likely they are to develop conduct problems. The results stressed the importance of developing more intervention programs towards violence domestic to prevent violence in that context.
- The relation between bullying and cyberbullying, emotional intelligence, and empathy in portuguese adolescentsPublication . Monteiro, Ana Paula; Marques, Filipa; Relva, Inês Carvalho; Simões, Margarida; Sani, Ana Isabel; Correia, EliseteBullying and cyberbullying share in their definition the pattern of aggressive and intentional conduct, characterized by a perceived or observed imbalance and repeated over time. Empathy and emotional intelligence are fundamental individual skills that can enable adolescents to develop less aggressive and more empathetic behaviors. The aim of this study is to explore the frequency of bullying and cyberbullying (victimization and/or aggression), the association of bullying, cyberbullying, empathy, and emotional intelligence, and to explore whether sex, age, educational level, and online recreational time are related to bullying and cyberbullying behaviors. A sample of 599 adolescents, aged between 13 and 21 years old, from basic and secondary schools located in the north of Portugal, participated in the study. The instruments used in the study were the Sociodemographic Questionnaire; the Bullying and Cyberbullying Behavior Questionnaire; the Basic Empathy Scale; and the Self-Perception of Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire. The main results indicated that victims demonstrate greater empathy and emotional intelligence. The results also showed that male adolescents take on more of the role of aggressors in bullying and cyberbullying, while female adolescents take on more of the role of victims. The study underscores the importance of developing and implementing prevention and intervention programs for bullying and cyberbullying, with a focus on promoting empathy and emotional intelligence among adolescents.
