Abstract(s)
A satisfação no trabalho e atitudes de mindfulness têm sido objeto de estudo da área da psicologia
social, do trabalho e das organizações. Na última década temos assistido a um crescente número
de investigações, as quais destacam o papel do mindfulness no contexto de trabalho, na eficiência
de atividades e na promoção da saúde física e psicológica. Estas evidências têm demonstrado que
as práticas meditativas melhoram a atenção plena, além de promoverem a saúde psicológica em
ambientes de trabalho.
Objetivou-se avaliar a satisfação laboral, atitudes de mindfulness e bem-estar dos trabalhadores,
definindo dois Objetivos de Estudo (OE): Identificar os níveis de bem-estar e satisfação no trabalho
dos trabalhadores em estudo; identificar as atitudes de mindfulness dos trabalhadores em estudo,
procedendo-se a um estudo quantitativo, transversal em termos temporais, descritivo e correlacional
numa amostra de 272 respondentes, todos eles com atividade profissional. Utilizou-se como
instrumento de recolha de dados um questionário online, contendo quatro partes: questões
socioprofissionais; a Mindful Attention Awareness Scale; a Satisfaction with Life Scale; e a Generic
Job Satisfaction Scale, estas últimas três nas suas versões validadas para a população portuguesa.
Os resultados evidenciam que a prática de exercícios de meditação e/ou mindfulness na atividade
diária influencia positivamente a satisfação com a vida e o bem-estar, bem como a satisfação no
trabalho, havendo diferenças estatisticamente significativas entre quem pratica e quem não.
Também o estado civil dos respondentes é determinante para o nível de satisfação com a vida e
com o trabalho.
Os resultados do presente estudo são corroborados por diversos estudos internacionais de renome,
o que nos leva a concluir que programas de introdução da meditação e/ou mindfulness nos
currículos académicos, implementados com sucesso nesses vários países, poderão ser facilmente
transpostos para a realidade portuguesa, já que os níveis e as diferenças estatisticamente
significativas encontrados, mostram semelhanças entre os respondentes dos vários países.
Considera-se que, como futura linha de investigação, deveria de ser implementado um programa de
MBCT e MBSR, como unidade curricular optativa, nos cursos de enfermagem, enquanto piloto para
uma abrangência maior futuramente.
Job satisfaction and mindfulness attitudes have been the subject of study in the area of social psychology, work and organizations. In the last decade we have witnessed an increasing number of investigations, which highlight the role of mindfulness in the work context, in the efficiency of activities and in the promotion of physical and psychological health. This evidence has shown that meditative practices improve mindfulness, in addition to promoting psychological health in work environments The objective was to assess job satisfaction, attitudes of mindfulness and well-being of workers, defining two Study Objectives (OE): To identify the levels of well-being and job satisfaction of the workers under study; and, To identify the attitudes of mindfulness of the workers under study, proceeding to a quantitative, transversal study in temporal terms, descriptive and correlational in a sample of 272 respondents, all of them with professional activity. An online questionnaire was used as an instrument for data collection, containing four parts: socio-professional issues; the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale; the Satisfaction with Life Scale; and the Generic Job Satisfaction Scale, the latter three in their versions validated for the Portuguese population. The results show that the practice of meditation and / or mindfulness exercises in daily activity, positively influence satisfaction with life and well-being, as well as job satisfaction, with statistically significant differences between those who practice and those who do not. Respondents' marital status is also determinant for their level of satisfaction with life and work. The results of the present study are corroborated by several renowned international studies, which leads us to conclude that programs of introduction of meditation and / or mindfulness in academic curricula, successfully implemented in these various countries, can be easily transposed to the Portuguese reality, since the levels and the statistically significant differences found, show similarities between the respondents of the various countries. It is considered that as a future line of research, an MBCT and MBSR program should be implemented, as an optional curricular unit, in nursing courses, as a pilot for greater coverage in the future.
