Abstract(s)
O stress é algo inerente à vida quotidiana, no entanto devido às particularidades da carreira militar os elementos das Forças Armadas encontram-se sujeitos a diversas situações capazes de se materializarem como indutoras de stress durante o cumprimento das suas funções. Estas situações tornam-se mais evidentes nos militares que se encontram a realizar as suas funções longe do território nacional, em missões internacionais. Torna-se assim relevante percecionar como estes reagem a estas situações e que estratégias utilizam para lidar com as mesmas de forma a serem capazes de garantir o cumprimento das missões que lhes são incumbidas.
Esta investigação pretende identificar as principais estratégias de coping utilizadas pelos militares portugueses em missões internacionais. De forma a atingir este objetivo esta investigação seguiu um método indutivo e quantitativo, tendo-se baseado num inquérito por questionário distribuído a militares dos três ramos das Forças Armadas.
Este questionário é constituído por quatro partes sendo a primeira constituída por questões relativas aos dados biográficos dos militares, a segunda por um conjunto de questões acerca dos indutores de stress enfrentados pelos inquiridos, uma terceira constituída pelo Coping Styles Questionnaire 3 e por fim por perguntas relativas aos mecanismos de coping por eles utilizados.
Através dos dados recolhidos podemos concluir que são os indutores relacionados com a motivação que mais afetam os militares portugueses em missão, sendo maioritariamente através do estilo de coping racional e de estratégias de procura de suporte que estes os enfrentam, dando preferência à prática de desporto individual e convívio com os amigos/camaradas.
Stress is an inherent part of our daily lives, but due to the particularities of a military career, members of our armed forces are subject to several stress-inducing situations during their duties. These situations become more evident in military personnel who are carrying out their duties far from home, on international missions. It is therefore important to understand how they react to these situations and what mechanisms they use to deal with them to be able to guarantee the fulfilment of their missions. This research aims to identify the main coping mechanisms used by Portuguese military personnel on international missions. To achieve this objective, this research followed an inductive and quantitative method, based on a questionnaire survey distributed to military personnel from the three branches of our armed forces. This questionnaire is made up of four parts, the first consisting of questions relating to the military personnel's biographical data, the second a set of questions about the stress inducers faced by the respondents, a third consisting of the Coping Styles Questionnaire 3 and finally questions relating to the coping mechanisms they use. From the data collected, we can conclude that it is the inducements related to motivation that most affect Portuguese soldiers on mission, and it is mainly through the rational coping style and the support-seeking strategy that they deal with them giving preference to practicing individual sports and socializing with friends/comrades.
