Resumo:
Neste estudo são analisadas as diferenças na qualidade de vida (QVD) entre adolescentes imigrantes e nativos de Espanha e Portugal. Avaliou-se a QDV percebida de 475 adolescentes nativos e imigrantes (52% rapazes) entre os 12 e os 17 anos de idade do Algarve (Portugal) e Huelva (Espanha) através do questionário KIDSCREEN-52 e o perfil sócio-demográfico. As dimensões da QDV não estavam associadas à maioria das variáveis acadêmicas, excetuando o número de repetições, recursos econômicos e apoio dos pares. Para analisar as diferenças da QVD entre os adolescentes foram realizadas analises de variancia multivariada (MANOVA). Não se encontraram diferenças na QDV por idade. As raparigas reportaram piores níveis de QDV no bem-estar físico do que os rapazes (F = 10.32, p = .001, η2 =.02). Os adolescentes portugueses imigrantes mostraram níveis mais elevados no Humor (F = 17.57, p = .000, η2 =.11) e os nativos obtiveram pontuações mais altas na Aceitação social (F = 4.87, p = .002, η2 =.033). Os resultados sugerem que os adolescentes imigrantes e nativos têm níveis semelhantes de QDV percebida. Em conjunto, parece que nos dois países os contextos vitais dos adolescentes nativos e imigrantes são bastante homogêneos.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to analyse differences in quality of life (QOL) between Spanish and Portuguese immigrant and native adolescents. In total, 475 native and immigrant adolescents (52% boys) from Algarve (Portugal) and Huelva (Spain), aged between 12 and 17 years old, were assessed with the KIDSCREEN-52. QOL dimensions were not related to most academic variables, with the exception of number of school failures, Financial Resources and Social Support from Peers. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was used to examine statistical differences in adolescents QOL. Age differences in QOL levels were not found. Girls reported worse QOL levels on Physical Wellbeing than boys (F = 10.32, p = .001, η2 =.02). Immigrant Portuguese adolescents scored higher on Mood (F = 17.57, p = .000, η2 =.11), and native Portuguese adolescents scored higher on Social Acceptance (F = 4.87, p = .002, η2 =.033). Immigrant and native adolescents had similar levels of perceived QOL. Overall, it seems that in both countries, the living contexts for immigrant and native adolescents are fairly homogeneous.
