Auteurs

Résumé

O presente artigo faz parte de um estudo, em desenvolvimento, sobre discurso de ódio nas comunidades de vídeo jogos online. Através das perspectivas de jovens jogadores e utilizando grupos de foco como metodologia qualitativa, foi possível obter conhecimento acerca das suas experiências relativamente a mensagens ofensivas, ambientes tóxicos online e normas de conduta em jogos. A análise dos depoimentos de 19 estudantes revelou informações tais como a sua concepção de discurso de ódio, as formas como são afetados por esse tipo de discurso e quais as possíveis respostas que imaginam para este fenómeno. Os resultados revelaram uma certa aceitação de ambientes tóxicos no contexto de jogos online, frequentemente devido à dessensibilização. As narrativas destes jovens jogadores apontaram para características como poder, prazer, conformidade e aumento de estatuto como motivações para comportamentos disruptivos online. Este estudo visa contribuir para uma compreensão mais ampla das percepções, comportamentos e motivações nas comunidades de jogos online, enfatizando a necessidade de uma abordagem colaborativa envolvendo jogadores, criadores e plataformas de jogos para promover um ambiente mais respeitoso e inclusivo.
