Abstract in Portuguese
O presente estudo tem por objetivo investigar as modalidades de enfrentamento religioso em homens portadores de HIV/AIDS pertencentes às religiões católica e evangélica pentecostal/neopentecostal. Após seleção de 50 católicos e 30 evangélicos, usuários de um serviço de atendimento a pacientes soropositivos em São Paulo, aplicou-se uma escala de coping religioso/espiritual e um formulário sobre religiosidade e história clínica da doença. As principais estratégias de coping apresentadas pelos sujeitos foram analisadas e comparadas entre os grupos católico e evangélico, através de mensuração estatística e da literatura sobre coping religioso. Estudos sobre as características psicossociais da população católica e evangélica no Brasil também foram utilizadas nas discussões sobre estilos preponderantes de coping em cada grupo. Tanto entre católicos quanto evangélicos houve maior uso de estratégias de enfrentamento que envolviam posicionamento positivo frente a Deus e menor uso de estratégias de reavaliação negativa de Deus. Os resultados mostraram uso maior por parte dos evangélicos de estilos que envolvem fatores positivos de transformação de si, ações em busca do outro institucional, busca pessoal de conhecimento espiritual, além de fatores negativos tais como posicionamento negativo frente a Deus e reavaliação negativa do significado. As considerações finais levantam tópicos sobre enfrentamento religioso na realidade brasileira e sua importância enquanto recurso multidimensional na vida do portador de HIV.
