Abstract(s)
A vitimação múltipla infantojuvenil tem sido objeto de extensa pesquisa internacional
pela relevância da avaliação do impacto no desenvolvimento de crianças e jovens. A parca
pesquisa nacional justifica o desenvolvimento deste trabalho, que se inicia com uma
revisão da literatura no tema, seguindo-se um estudo empírico. Nesse estudo pretendeuse
a compreensão da vitimação múltipla infantil e juvenil junto de uma amostra de jovens
com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18 anos, dividido em dois grupos (com e sem
acompanhamento psicológico), os quais responderam ao Questionário de Vitimação
Juvenil (JVQ). Este mesmo instrumento foi igualmente aplicado aos responsáveis legais
dos jovens de modo a obter-se uma avaliação por heterorelato da experiência de vitimação
dos jovens. Os resultados indicaram que há uma experiência frequente dos jovens de
situações de violência, destacando-se os crimes convencionais entre os que são mais
experienciados e a vitimação sexual como menos comum. A experiência cumulativa de
violência existe, comprovando-se a vitimação múltipla infantil e juvenil e a
polivitimação. Estes fenómenos não são necessariamente mais comuns em população
com sinalização clínica revelando que este problema está largamente extendido à
população na faixa etária analisada, não existindo diferenças significativas entre os jovens
quando comparadas as tipologias de violência, a vitimação múltipla ou a polivitimação.
Os dados fornecidos pelos pais corroboram com as tipologias de crimes mais e menos
frequentes (Convencional vs. Sexual) experienciadas pelos filhos. Os valores para a
vitimação múltipla confirmam a existência do fenómeno. A polivitimação é assinalada
como mais comum no grupo clínico. Importa alertar para o fenómeno da vitimação
múltipla infantil e juvenil visando uma avaliação e intervenção mais eficazes junto desta
população.
Multiple child victimization has been the subject of extensive international research on the relevance of impact assessment on child and youth development. The slight national research justifies the development of this work, which begins with a review of the literature on the subject, followed by an empirical study. In this study it was aimed to understand the multiple childhood and juvenile victimization amongst a sample of 12-18 year-olds divided into two groups (with and without psychological counseling), who have answered to the Juvenile Victimization Questionnaire (JVQ). This instrument was equally applied to the legal guardians of these youngsters in order to obtain a heterorelate assessment of the experience of youth victimization. The results indicated that there is a usual experience of young people in violence situations, emphasis on conventional crimes on wich are more experienced and sexual victimization as being less common. There is cumulative experience of violence, wich proves multiple childhood and juvenile victimization and polyvitimation. These phenomena aren't necessarily the most common between population with clinical signaling, revealing that this problem is largely extended to the population in the analyzed age range, therefore not existing significant differences between youngsters when compared to types of violence, multiple victimization or polivitimation. The data provided by the parents corroborate with the more and less common types of crime (conventional vs. Sexual) experienced by their children. The numbers for multiple victimization confirm the existence of the phenomenon. Polyvitimation is reported as most common in the clinical group. It is important to alert to the phenomenon of multiple childhood and juvenile victimization aiming at a more effective evaluation and intervention among this population.
