Objetivo: O presente artigo procura relacionar e analisar evidências empíricas e teóricas sobre o impacto e os fatores associados ao impacto da separação ou divórcio dos pais no ajustamento da criança. Método: Realizou-se uma revisão agregativa da literatura, recorrendo às palavras-chave "divorce adjustment", "child divorce" e "divorce impact", nas bases de dados JSTOR, PsycInfo, SciELO e Medline e em livros da especialidade. Resultados: Respostas adaptativas e desadaptativas da criança são descritas, assim como potenciais resultados positivos. São principalmente discutidos os fatores mediadores e moderadores frequentemente referenciados na literatura no impacto da separação ou divórcio dos pais no ajustamento da criança. Entre esses estão: características da criança, problemas financeiros, sintomatologia psicopatológica dos pais, qualidade das práticas parentais e conflito interparental. Conclusão: Com base nas evidências empíricas e perspectivando o divórcio como uma transição desenvolvimental, levantamos a hipótese de que os problemas de ajustamento apresentados pelas crianças com pais divorciados possam ser mais bem explicados por outros fatores do que pelo divórcio/separação per se. Finalmente assumimos uma inovação conceptual de que essa transição familiar pode significar uma oportunidade de crescimento e de promoção desenvolvimental.Raposo HS, et al. / Rev Psiq Clín. 2011;38(1):29-33 Palavras-chave: Ajustamento, criança, divórcio, coparentalidade, conflito interparental. AbstractObjective: Current theoretical and empirical evidences about the impact and the factors associated with the impact of parents' separation/divorce in children's adjustment were related and examined. Method: An aggregative literature review was made, using the keywords "divorce adjustment", "child divorce" e "divorce impact", from the databases JSTOR, PsycInfo, SciELO, and Medline and from reference books. Results: Child unadaptive and adaptive responses are described, as well as potential positive results. Mediators and moderators factors of the impact of parents' separation/divorce in children's adjustment often referenced in literature are mainly discussed. Among these are: characteristics of children, financial problems, parents' psychopathological symptoms, quality of parenting practices and inter-parental conflict. Discussion: Based on the existing results, and considering the divorce as a developmental transition, we put a hypothesis that adjustment problems showed by children's of divorce can be better explained by other factors than the divorce/separation by itself. Finally we assume a conceptual innovation that this familiar transition can represent a growth opportunity and developmental promotion.

“…Conflict during marriage is one of the most common reasons for divorce. While it may seem that the separation of a couple could solve the parental conflict, it is estimated that in 24 to 33% of divorced families, the parents continue to have disputes between them two years after their separation (Sarrazin and Cyr, 2007). In some cases, the parental conflict may even increase after the divorce due to disputes over properties, custody, payment of child support and mistrust of their exspouse, among other reasons (McLanahan and Sandefur, 1994).…”

ResumenEsta investigación analiza el efecto de la separación o divorcio de los padres en el rendimiento educativo de los hijos, incluyendo como factor de análisis la conflictividad entre los padres separados o divorciados. El estudio se basa en el análisis del Panel de Familias e Infancia, con una muestra de 2.731 adolescentes de 13 a 16 años de Cataluña. Los principales resultados indican que los hijos de padres divorciados que mantienen una relación conflictiva tienen mayor probabilidad de obtener peores resultados educativos que los hijos de padres divorciados sin conflicto y de hogares biparentales. Sin embargo, los hijos de padres divorciados sin conflicto tienen una menor probabilidad de obtener una nota media de suspenso que aquellos que viven en un hogar biparental. Key words AbstractThis study analyses the effect of parental separation or divorce on children's educational achievement, and includes parental conflict as a factor of analysis. The study is based on the analysis of the Panel of Families and Children, with a sample of 2,731 adolescents aged between13 to 16 years old in Catalonia, Spain. The main results show that the children of divorced parents who have a conflicted relationship are more likely to obtain poorer educational results than the children of divorced parents without conflict and two-parent households. However, children of divorced parents with no conflicted relationship are less likely on average to receive a failing grade than those who live in two-parent households.

Cómo citar 42Los efectos del conflicto parental después del divorcio sobre el rendimiento educativo de los hijos IntroduccIón 1 La mayoría de las sociedades avanzadas están viviendo, desde inicios del siglo xx, una serie de cambios demográficos de grandes implicaciones en la configuración de las familias. Por un lado, cada vez se retrasa más la edad de la maternidad y ha disminuido significativamente el número de hijos. Por otro lado, la tasa de matrimonios ha disminuido, mientras que la de parejas de hecho y la de cohabitación ha aumentado. La edad media al contraer matrimonio es mayor y los matrimonios son más inestables, aumentando las tasas de divorcio (Castro, 2014). En España las cifras de divorcios han cambiado de forma extremadamente rápida en un periodo relativamente corto. El divorcio no fue legal hasta 1981 2 , pero en poco más de treinta años la tasa de divorcios ya ha sobrepasado la media de países de la OCDE (de 1,9 en 2012), situándose en la misma posición que Alemania (2,2 por cada mil personas) y superando a países como Francia, Noruega y Holanda, entre otros. En estos años, con el incremento de las separaciones y divorcios, las modalidades y circunstancias que rodean la ruptura de la pareja también varían. Por ejemplo, puede producirse antes de tener hijos, o bien cuando los hijos ya son mayores y se han independi...

“…This may indicate that a young person's gender can bring different challenges. Whatever the circumstances of the absence, children who lose contact with their father have been found to be more likely to leave school early, to engage in externalising or delinquent behaviour, have problems with social skills development, and to have more psychosocial adjustment problems than children whose fathers maintain a relationship (Baum, 2006;Bokker, 2006;Glynn & Addaction, 2011;Harold, Aitken, & Shelton, 2007;Sarrazin & Cyr, 2007;Stone, 2006).…”

This article describes the experiences of four young people aged 18 to 25 years whose fathers were absent during their adolescent years. The study, located in regional Western Australia, sought to investigate how young people experience father absence, their needs and preferences in regard to any help seeking, and their evaluation of the effectiveness of supports used. Participants were found to share a combination of risk factors which were linked to negative psychosocial outcomes. Problems identified by young people included no one to talk to about problems and a lack of available services. Participants disclosed involvement in substance use, school misconduct and anti-social behaviour, and all reported early home leaving. Male and female participants reported using similar coping styles and a hierarchy of preference in help-seeking was found with friends and family preferred over counselling. Counselling was considered helpful when offered online or via drop-in services not requiring an appointment. Ethical constraints, however, were found to limit young people's participation in research.
