Resumo: The literature suggests that institutionalization may negatively impact adolescents who may show low self­?esteem, self-blaming statements, feelings of incompetence and a perception of uncertainty concerning to the future. This paper presents results of a study of self­?concept among institutionalized and non institutionalized adolescents. The study involved 78 participants (100% females) from the north of Portugal (Institutionalized: N=39; 50%) who completed the Scale of Self­?concept of Piers­?Harris for Children. The results showed that institutionalized adolescents report lower levels of global self­?concept as well as low intellectual, academic and behavioral self­?concept. However, other dimensions of self-concept seem fairly protected, which may show that there are protector factors. In the future research, other psychological dimensions should be explored with institutionalized adolescents, with multidimensional and longitudinal approaches.

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17575/rpsicol.v25i2.292A literatura sugere que o acolhimento institucional poderá ter impacto psicológico negativo na infância, nomeadamente, níveis de auto­?estima reduzidos, auto­?culpabilização, sentimentos de incompetência e uma percepção por parte dos jovens de uma elevada incerteza relativamente ao seu percurso de vida futuro. Neste trabalho serão apresentados resultados de um estudo comparativo ao nível do auto­?conceito entre adolescentes institucionalizadas e adolescentes não institucionalizadas. O estudo envolveu 78 participantes (100% do sexo feminino) da zona Norte do país (Institucionalizadas: N=39; 50%), que preencheram a Escala de Auto­?conceito de Piers­?Harris para Crianças. Os resultados revelaram que as adolescentes institucionalizadas apresentam níveis globais de auto­?conceito mais reduzidos, tendo­?se obtido resultados idênticos para algumas dimensões do auto­?conceito (aspectos intelectuais, escolares e comportamentais). Contudo, outras áreas do auto­?conceito parecem relativamente protegidas desta percepção menos positiva, o que poderá indiciar a presença de factores protectores (...)
