          Abstract

          A proposta deste estudo foi investigar os níveis de estresse e auto-eficácia materna em mães de indivíduos com autismo. Participaram do estudo trinta mães de filhos com autismo, com idades entre 30 e 56 anos. Utilizou-se o Inventário de Sintomas de Stress para Adultos de Lipp (ISSL) e uma Escala de Auto-eficácia. Os resultados mostraram que a maior parte das mães (70%) apresentou altos níveis de estresse. Quanto à auto-eficácia, os movimentos estereotipados do filho, a quantidade excessiva de tempo gasto em uma atividade particular e a insistência para que as coisas sejam feitas de determinada maneira foram os comportamentos com que as mães se julgaram mais eficazes para lidar. Os comportamentos do filho que se mostraram mais difíceis para as mães lidarem foram a habilidade de troca de turnos durante conversas e a capacidade para fixar o olhar quando interagindo com parceiros. Os resultados são discutidos a partir do Modelo Psicossocial de Adaptação.

          The aim of this study was to investigate the stress levels and maternal self-efficacy in mothers of persons with autism. Thirty mothers of children with autism participated in the study, with ages ranging from 30 to 56 years old. The instruments used were the Lipp’s Inventory of Stress Symptoms for Adults (ISSL) and the Self-efficacy Scale. The results showed that most mothers presented high levels of stress. The levels of maternal self-efficacy the behaviors that the mothers felt more effective to deal with were their son's stereotyped movements, the excessive amount of time spent in a particular activity and the insistence for the things to be made in certain ways. The most difficult behavior for them to deal with were their son's difficulties to take turns during conversation and keeping eye contact when interacting with partners. The results are discussed using the Psychosocial Model of Adaptation.
