Resumo

Este estudo pretende explorar as atitudes dos adolescentes face aos pares com deficiência e analisar sua relação com variáveis sociodemográficas e psicológicas e experiência de contacto. Participaram 190 alunos, com idades entre 12 e 17 anos. Recorreu-se a um questionário sociodemográfico, à Chedoke-McMaster Attitudes Towards Children with Handicaps Scale, à Escala de Empatia Básica, à Escala de Autoestima de Rosenberg e à Escala de Satisfação Global com a Vida. Os resultados indicaram que as atitudes dos adolescentes são globalmente positivas. As adolescentes, os alunos mais novos e os que relataram ter contacto com pessoas com deficiência fora da escola apresentaram atitudes mais positivas. Registaram-se correlações positivas entre as atitudes e a empatia.
