Resumo: | This study investigated what predicts the occurrence of hot fl ushes (HF) and night sweats (NS). A community sample of 992 women (42-60 years) answered a questionnaire to collect socio-demographic, health and menopause-related, as well as lifestyle information. Depressive mood and stress, as well as HF and NS (in terms of presence, frequency and intensity), were also assessed. Structural equation modelling was used to build a structural model to predict the occurrence of both vasomotor symptoms. Results: Stress predicted NS (β =.154; p =.006), whereas depressive mood was linked to the occurrence of HF’s (β =.149; p =.006). Being peri-menopausal and post-menopausal, among several other characteristics, were also signifi cant predictors of the occurrence of both HF and NS. This study supports a distinguished infl uence of stress and depressive mood in NS and HF respectively, probably due to the nature of psychological symptoms. Moreover, signifi cant associations between vasomotor symptoms and socio-demographic, health and menopause-related characteristics, and alcohol were confirmed. |

Foi utilizada uma amostra comunitária de 992 mulheres (42-60 anos), que respondeu a um questionário para a recolha de informação sociodemográfi ca, de estado de saúde e menopausa, e sobre o estilo de vida. Os níveis de humor deprimido e estresse, tal como a ocorrência, frequência e intensidade dos Af e SN, foram avaliados. Modelos de equações estruturais foram utilizados para construir o modelo estrutural para predizer a ocorrência de ambos os sintomas vasomotores. Os resultados indicaram que estresse predisse os SN (β =0,154; p =0,006), enquanto o humor deprimido associou-se à ocorrência de Af (β =0,149; p =0,006). Estar na peri-menopausa ou na pós-menopausa, entre outras características, associou-se igualmente à ocorrência de Af e SN. Este estudo suporta uma infl uência diferenciada do estresse e do humor deprimido na ocorrência de SN e Af, respetivamente, provavelmente devido à natureza dos sintomas psicológicos. Adicionalmente confi rmou-se uma associação signifi cativa entre os sintomas vasomotores e características sociodemográfi cas, de saúde, de menopausa e consumo de álcool.Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT)Curso de Pós-Graduação em Psicologia da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do SulRepositório do ISPAPimenta, FilipaMarôco, J.
