Resumo: The Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale, developed by in the framework of the Circumplex Model of Marital and Family Systems, assess family functioning through a relational diagnosis. This instrument is subdivided into six subscales, allowing an assessment of the balanced and dysfunctional levels (extremely low and extremely high) of the dimensions of family cohesion and flexibility. The FACES IV Package also includes two scales that evaluate family communication and satisfaction. The present article analyzes the psychometric properties of the instruments included in the FACES IV Package with a sample of Portuguese adolescents in two studies. In the first study, we included a community group of 757 students and a clinical group of 67 adolescents attending psychiatric appointments. The results of this study revealed a factorial model of 24 items with satisfactory psychometric qualities, showing an acceptable adjustment to our sample. In the second study, the factorial solution obtained in the previous study was replicated with an independent sample of 707 young students. The results of this validation, show that FACES IV is a useful tool for family diagnosis among Portuguese adolescents.

Este instrumento está subdividido em seis subescalas que permitem uma avaliação dos níveis equilibrados e disfuncionais (extremamente baixos e extremamente elevados) das dimensões de coesão e flexibilidade familiar. O Pacote FACES IV inclui ainda dois questionários que permitem a avaliação da comunicação e satisfação familiar. O presente artigo analisa as propriedades psicométricas dos instrumentos incluídos no Pacote FACES IV junto de uma amostra de adolescentes portugueses em dois estudos. No primeiro estudo, incluímos um grupo comunitário de 757 estudantes e um grupo clínico de 67 adolescentes que recorrem a consultas psiquiátricas. Os resultados deste estudo revelaram um modelo fatorial de 24 itens com qualidades psicométricas satisfatórias, permitindo concluir um ajustamento aceitável à nossa amostra. No segundo estudo, a solução fatorial obtida no estudo anterior foi replicada junto de uma amostra independente de 707 jovens estudantes. Os resultados desta validação apresentam o FACES IV como um instrumento útil para o diagnóstico familiar junto de adolescentes portugueses.ISPA - Instituto Universitário2020-06-15info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1651https://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1651Análise Psicológica; Vol 38, No 1 (2020); 111-126Análise Psicológica; Vol 38, No 1 (2020); 111-1261646-60200870-8231reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttp://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1651http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1651/pdfhttp://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/downloadSuppFile/1651/324http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/downloadSuppFile/1651/325http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/downloadSuppFile/1651/326http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/downloadSuppFile/1651/327Copyright (c) 2020 Análise Psicológicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGouveia-Pereira, MariaGomes, HugoMiranda, MarianaCandeias, Maria de Jesus2023-05-11T10:19:42Zoai:ojs.localhost:article/1651Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:51:11.055809Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
