Relação entre estresse e habilidades sociais em docentes do ensino superior do estado da Bahia / Relationship between stress and social skills in professors in the state of Bahia / Relación entre estrés y habilidades sociales en los docentes universitarios del estado de Bahía

Este estudo pretendeu caracterizar o estresse e as habilidades sociais de docentes do ensino superior do Estado da Bahia. Ao lado disso, buscou verificar a relação existente entre esses construtos. Para tanto, aplicou o Inventário de Sintomas de Stress para Adultos de Lipp e o Inventário de Habilidades Sociais (IHS) em 152 docentes do ensino superior de instituições públicas e privadas da Bahia. Os participantes se dedicavam a diferentes áreas e, em sua maioria, pertenciam ao gênero masculino. Trinta e cinco docentes apresentaram quadros característicos das fases de resistência e quase-exaustão. Ao lado disso, evidenciou-se que os sintomas físicos foram os mais presentes, assim como um baixo repertório de habilidades sociais em "autocontrole da agressividade" e "enfrentamento e autoafirmação com risco". Não houve diferenças significativas em habilidades sociais entre os docentes com sintomatologia de estresse e os sem sintomatologia. Dada a relevância da temática e suas implicações, ressalta-se a necessidade de novas investigações.
