ABSTRACT
A autonomia reprodutiva feminina levou o Brasil a uma transição demográfica acentuada, apresentando rápida progressão de casais sem filhos. Profissionais das diversas áreas clínicas necessitarão desenvolver, cada vez mais, além de empatia, habilidades e competências para lidar com os novos quadros e sujeitos sociais que optam por abrir mão de projetos que envolvem filiação e descendência. Este estudo buscou compreender os motivos que levam casais heterossexuais a optarem por não ter filhos e identificar intercorrências preconceituosas. O Método utilizado foi o qualitativo exploratório e foram realizadas entrevistas com cinco casais na cidade de São Paulo, com amostra escolhida por bola de neve. Os resultados permitiram concluir que se trata de uma escolha complexa e marcada pela consensualidade; motivada por objetivos diversos, que passam pelo desejo de liberdade para a realização de projetos pessoais e profissionais, assim como o fato de que estas famílias contemporâneas enfrentam formas de preconceitos e estigmatização sociais.(AU)

This study aimed to examine how stigma impacts on symptomatic and subjective recovery from psychosis, both concurrently and longitudinally. We also aimed to investigate whether self-esteem and hopelessness mediated the observed associations between stigma and outcomes. 80 service-users with psychosis completed symptom (Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale) and subjective recovery measures (Process of Recovery Questionnaire) at baseline and 6-months later, and also completed the King Stigma Scale, the Self-Esteem Rating Scale and the Beck Hopelessness Scale at baseline. In cross sectional regression and multiple mediation analyses of the baseline data, we found that stigma predicted both symptomatic and subjective recovery, and the effects of stigma on these outcomes were mediated by hopelessness and self-esteem. When the follow-up data were examined, stigma at baseline continued to predict recovery judgements and symptoms. However, self-esteem only mediated the effect of stigma on PANSS passive social withdrawal. Self-esteem and hopelessness should be considered in interventions to reduce the effects of stigma. Interventions that address the current and long-term effects of stigma may positively affect outcome for people being treated for psychosis.
