Resumo: The objective of this study was to understand how Portuguese young people are located in relation to some parameters that have been associated with young people’s positive development. For this purpose, the model of the 5C’s was considered (Lerner et al., 2005), in particular regarding to its evaluation proposal. Nine hundred and seven Portuguese students of both genders and between the ages of 12 and 15 completed PYDp/red (Esperança, Dias, Brustad, & Fonseca, 2017; the Portuguese version of the Measure of PYD). The results showed that young people had higher results in self-concept issues and a positive view of their own actions, showing lower values in respect of social rules and correct patterns of behaviour girls and boys, but there were only statistically significant differences in the character dimension. As far as age was concerned, there were relevant different results, with the results being lower, in all dimensions, in the young people who were at the end of puberty in comparison with other age groups.

Para o efeito, foi considerado o modelo dos 5C’s (Lerner et al., 2005), nomeadamente no que concerne à sua proposta de avaliação. Novecentos e sete alunos portugueses, de ambos os sexos e com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 15 anos preencheram o PYDp/red (Esperança, Dias, Brustad, & Fonseca, 2017), a versão portuguesa do Measure of PYD (Lerner et al., 2005). Os resultados permitiram constatar que os jovens apresentavam resultados mais elevados nas questões que se prendiam com o autoconceito e com uma visão positiva das suas próprias ações, demonstrando valores menos elevados no respeito pelas regras sociais e padrões corretos de comportamento, bem como na compreensão pelos outros e nos vínculos positivos. Constatou-se ainda que as raparigas apresentavam resultados médios mais elevados do que os rapazes, mas apenas se verificavam diferenças estatisticamente significativas na dimensão caráter. No que concerne à idade, existiam diferenças acentuadas nos resultados, sendo os resultados inferiores, em todas as dimensões, nos jovens que se encontravam no final da puberdade, comparativamente aos de outras faixas etárias.ISPA - Instituto Universitário2018-11-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1420https://doi.org/10.14417/ap.1420Análise Psicológica; Vol 36, No 4 (2018); 427-437Análise Psicológica; Vol 36, No 4 (2018); 427-4371646-60200870-8231reponame: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/1420http://publicacoes.ispa.pt/index.php/ap/article/view/1420/pdfEsperança, Jorge LuísDias, CláudiaBrustad, Robert JohnFonseca, António Manuelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-05-11T10:19:50Zoai:ojs.localhost:article/1420Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T17:51:13.837343Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
