Resumo

Este estudo teve como objetivo avaliar e maximizar a adequação do Guia de Avaliação das Capacidades Parentais (De Rancourt, Paquette, Paquette, & Rainville, 2006) ao sistema de proteção à infância português. Utilizou-se uma metodologia de focus group com técnicos psicossociais, magistrados e académicos que trabalham diretamente com a avaliação da parentalidade. As discussões focaram a equibilidade da aplicação, a utilidade da informação recolhida e dos juízos clínicos efetuados para a elaboração de pareceres técnicos, e as alterações consideradas necessárias. Da análise efetuada com o software QSRnVivo8 concluiu-se que o guia assenta em conhecimento científico atualizado e possibilita a obtenção de informação suficiente. Foram identificadas e detalhadas alterações metodológicas, estruturais e de conteúdo a introduzir no instrumento.
