Abstract(s)
Com o envelhecimento da população e o aumento da percentagem de
indivíduos idosos, observou-se maior interesse em compreender como se posicionam
estes indivíduos face à sociedade atual. No contexto do desenvolvimento psicológico,
verifica-se um aumento de estudos com objetivos tais como descrever os idosos, seus
desempenhos, suas capacidades e processos necessários para se manterem ativos
socialmente. Este estudo qualitativo tem como objetivo contribuir para a caracterização
e compreensão dos sujeitos adultos que pretendem permanecer a trabalhar após a idade
da reforma. A amostra é composta por 17 indivíduos (9 do sexo masculino e 8 do sexo
feminino), com idades compreendidas entre os 45 e os 60 anos, de diversos estatutos
socioeconómicos e que se encontram a trabalhar. A recolha dos dados foi efetuada
através da discussão gerada em três focus group de modo a compreender a decisão de
trabalhar após a idade da reforma. Os resultados sugerem que este grupo de indivíduos,
na generalidade, demonstram autoconfiança, autodeterminação, autonomia, persistência
e eficácia perante as adversidades, gostam de trabalhar, têm objetivos, propósito de
vida, demonstram atitude mental positiva e sentimento de bem-estar e felicidades
perante a vida. Em síntese, emerge uma “nova população” que rompe com os “dogmas
sociais” sobre o envelhecimento, na etapa final da vida.
With the aging of the population and the increase in the percentage of elderly individuals, it was observed a greater interest in understanding how these individuals are positioned in relation to the current society. In the context of psychological development, there is an increase in studies with objectives such as describing the elderly, their performances, their capacities and the processes necessary to remain socially active. This qualitative study aims to contribute to the characterization and understanding of adult subjects who intend to remain working after retirement age. The sample is made up of 17 individuals (9 males and 8 females), aged between 45 and 60 years old, from various socioeconomic statuses and who are working. Data collection was carried out through the discussion generated in three focus groups in order to understand the decision to work after the retirement age. The results suggest that this group of individuals, in general, demonstrates self-confidence, self determination, autonomy, persistence and efficacy in the face of adversity, enjoy work, have goals, life purpose, demonstrate positive mental attitude and sense of well-being and happiness before the life. In short, a "new population" emerges that breaks with the "social dogmas" about aging in the final stage of life.
