“…O sentimento de competência parental e as percepções de auto-eficácia em domínios específicos têm sido considerados na literatura sobre cognições parentais como um correlato dos comportamentos parentais, provavelmente com o estabelecimento de estratégias parentais e ambientes relacionais e educativos de qualidade que maximizam o desenvolvimento das crianças (Bornstein et al, 2003;Bugental & Johnston, 2000;Coleman & Karraker, 2003;Jones & Prinz 2005;Meunier & Roskam, 2009;Okagaki & Bingham, 2005;Teti & Gelfand, 1991).…”

A avaliação que os pais fazem sobre o seu próprio desempenho pode ter um papel directo ou indirecto no desenvolvimento das crianças. Neste trabalho, estudamos o sentimento de competência parental face ao papel global da parentalidade e as percepções de auto-eficácia em domínios específicos da parentalidade, procurando identificar diferenças entre pais e mães, e discernir efeitos possíveis face a características demográficas, como preditores das cognições da parentalidade. Os resultados vão de encontro a evidência disponível na literatura, contudo revelam especificidades na nossa amostra que permitam equacionar singularidades, em particular face aos preditores sociodemográficos da autoeficácia, levantando questões relativas aos factores de contexto e culturais da parentalidade. Palavras-chave:Cognições parentais, Sentimento de competência parental geral, Domínios de autoeficácia parental. INTRODUÇÃOA parentalidade representa, muito provavelmente, o papel mais satisfatório desempenhado pelo adulto, e ao mesmo tempo, o desafio mais exigente no seu ciclo de vida adulta, dadas as demandas intelectuais, emocionais e físicas que implica, tanto para as mães, como para os pais. No entanto, cada pai pode vivenciar este papel de diversas formas, sentindo-se mais ou menos competente no desempenho do mesmo (Meunier & Roskam, 2009).A avaliação que os pais fazem sobre a sua parentalidade e a forma como estes fazem críticas ao seu próprio desempenho pode ter um papel directo ou indirecto no desenvolvimento

Little is known about the impact of genetic counseling on parental uncertainty or perceived control regarding the prognosis of a child with a chromosomal disorder. By exploring the parents' concerns and needs surrounding the child's diagnosis, a genetic provider can help to facilitate effective coping. This study tested the association of measures of parental uncertainty and perceived control with the perceived helpfulness of the genetic counselor. A survey was distributed to 875 members of the Chromosome Deletion Outreach (CDO) support group. We hypothesized that parents' perceptions about the helpfulness of the genetic counselor would modify the relationship between perceived uncertainty, perceived control, and coping. Among the 363 respondents, there was a significant negative correlation of the perceived helpfulness of seeing a genetic counselor with the levels of uncertainty (rs = −0.20, P‐value < 0.001). Lower perceived helpfulness of the genetic counselor, along with less perceived personal control, less benefit of a diagnosis, and lower parental age were significant predictors of the highest perceptions of uncertainty. The Transactional Model of Stress and Coping was used as a framework for interpreting the relationships between parental uncertainty, perceived control, and outcome variables. There was a significant positive correlation between parents' perceived personal control and their reports of helpfulness of the genetic counselor (rs = 0.20, P‐value <0.0006). Genetic counseling can be enhanced for parents faced with rare disorders by using interventions focused on reducing feelings of uncertainty and enhancing feelings of control. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

“…There is some evidence showing a relationship between parents' dysfunctional attributions and negative outcomes for parents and children (Bugental, 2000;Slep and O'Leary, 1998). Attributions refer to 'explanations for salient and unpleasant events'.…”

Why a universal population‐level approach to the prevention of child abuse is essential

2003

This paper argues for the importance of adopting a population-level approach to promote more effective parenting and to reduce the risk of child maltreatment. Family-based interventions based on social learning principles have been shown to make a useful contribution in the treatment of child maltreatment. However, typically such programmes have been used to treat parents who have already become involved in the child protection system. We argue that the creation of communitywide support structures to support positive parenting is needed to reduce the prevalence of child maltreatment. Such an approach requires several criteria to be met. These include having knowledge about the prevalence rates for the targeted child outcomes sought, knowledge about the prevalence of various parenting and family risk factors, evidence that changing family risk factors reduces the prevalence of targeted problems, having culturally appropriate, cost-effective, evidence-based interventions available and making these widely accessible.
