0032/2024 - PRATICAR BULLYING ESTÁ ASSOCIADO COM COMPORTAMENTOS DE RISCO À SAÚDE E QUALIDADE DE VIDA EM ADOLESCENTES? IS BULLYING ASSOCIATED WITH HEALTH RISK BEHAVIORS AND QUALITY OF LIFE IN ADOLESCENTS?
OBJETIVO: Verificar a associação da prática de bullying com comportamentos de risco à saúde e qualidade de vida, em meninos e meninas adolescentes, da cidade de Maringá, Paraná. MÉTODOS: Uma amostra representativa de 1020 adolescentes participou do estudo. O bullying, os comportamentos de risco à saúde, a percepção de qualidade de vida e a condição econômica foram avaliados por questionários autorreportados. Razões de chances com intervalos de confiança de 95% (IC95%) foram obtidas por meio da regressão logística binária e regressão logística ordinal, bruta e ajustada, adotando-se p<0,05. RESULTADOS: Os meninos praticantes de bullying tiveram 2,2 (IC95%=1,4-3,4) e 2,0 (IC95%= 1,2-3,2) vezes mais chance de consumir álcool e de realizar atividade física do que meninos que não praticam bullying. Meninas praticantes de bullying tiveram 2,1 (IC95%=1,3-3,5), 3,6 (IC95%=1,3-10,1), 1,8 (IC95%= 1,1-2,9) e 2,7 (IC95%= 1,1-6,3) vezes mais chance de fumar, usar drogas ilícitas, ter vício em smartphone e ter uma pior qualidade do sono, além de possuir 60% (OR= 0,4 IC%= 0,3-08) mais chance de ter uma pior percepção de qualidade de vida, respectivamente, em comparação com meninas não praticantes. CONCLUSÃO: Ser praticante de bullying pode estar associado a comportamentos de risco à saúde, tanto para os meninos quanto para as meninas e ter uma pior qualidade de vida para as meninas.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To assess the association between bullying perpetration, health-risk behavior, and quality of life in adolescent boys and girls from the city of Maringá, Paraná. METHODS: A representative sample of 1020 adolescents participated in the study. This study evaluated, through self-reported questionnaires, bullying, health-risk behavior, perception of quality of life, and economic status of these adolescents. Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were obtained through binary logistic regression and ordinal logistic regression, both crude and adjusted, with a significance level set at p<0.05. RESULTS: Male bullying perpetrators were 2.2 (95% CI=1.4-3.4) and 2.0 (95% CI=1.2-3.2) times more likely to consume alcohol and engage in physical activity compared to non-bullying males. Female bullying perpetrators were 2.1 (95% CI=1.3-3.5), 3.6 (95% CI=1.3-10.1), 1.8 (95% CI=1.1-2.9), and 2.7 (95% CI=1.1-6.3) times more likely to smoke, use illicit drugs, be addicted to smartphones, and have poorer sleep quality. Furthermore, these girls have a 60% higher chance (OR=0.4, CI%=0.3-08) of having a worse perception of life quality, respectively, compared to non-perpetrating females. CONCLUSION: Being a perpetrator of bullying may be associated with health-risk behavior for both boys and girls but may also be linked to lower quality of life, especially for girls.
