Resumo:  This study aimed to adapt the Children’s Natural Environment Signaling Scale to the Brazilian context, gathering evidence of validity and precision. Specifically, it sought to verify the presence of violent behavior in the adolescents’ family environment and to identify the victims of this type of violence. A total of 249 adolescents, between 13 and 19 years old, participated this study. The results pointed to the existence of few situations of intrafamily violence, with the most frequent victims being children and adolescents. As for the instrument, the confirmatory factor analysis revealed adequate adjustment indexes, confirming the original model of the scale, composed of four factors: physical abuse, emotional abuse, coercion, and control. The reliability, assessed using Cronbach’s alpha and McDonald’s omega coefficients, showed similar satisfactory indicators ranging from 0.69 to 0.81. The importance of having a psychometrically robust instrument is highlighted, making it possible to assess intrafamily violence in the Brazilian context.

Especificamente, buscou-se verificar a presença de comportamentos violentos no ambiente familiar dos adolescentes e identificar as vítimas desse tipo de violência. Participaram 249 adolescentes, com idades entre 13 e 19 anos. Os resultados apontaram para a existência de poucas situações de violência intrafamiliar e as vítimas mais frequentes eram crianças e adolescentes. Quanto ao instrumento, a análise fatorial confirmatória revelou índices de ajuste adequados, confirmando o modelo original da escala, composta por quatro fatores: abuso físico, abuso emocional, coerção e controle. A confiabilidade, avaliada através dos coeficientes alfa de Cronbach e ômega de McDonald, revelou indicadores satisfatórios semelhantes que variaram de 0,69 a 0,81. Destaca-se a importância de contar com um instrumento psicometricamente robusto, que possibilite avaliar a violência intrafamiliar no contexto brasileiro.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-02-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7315Psychological Studies; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7315/4876Copyright (c) 2023 Jérssia Laís Fonseca dos SANTOS, Patrícia Nunes da FONSECA, José Farias de SOUZA FILHO, Paulo Gregório Nascimento da SILVA, Ricardo Neves COUTOhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSANTOS, Jérssia Laís Fonseca dosFONSECA, Patrícia Nunes da SOUZA FILHO, José Farias deSILVA, Paulo Gregório Nascimento da COUTO, Ricardo Neves2023-08-03T13:41:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7315Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2023-08-03T13:41:42Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
