Nas próximas décadas, a Região Autónoma da Madeira enfrentará uma profunda transformação na sua estrutura populacional, devido ao envelhecimento progressivo da população, fruto da conjugação de dois fatores: o aumento da esperança de vida e a crescente diminuição da taxa de natalidade (Plano Gerontológico da RAM, 2009). Partindo do pressuposto que a promoção da qualidade de vida dos idosos é essencial para o seu bem estar físico, psicológico e social, formulou-se o problema que servirá de base à investigação: Será que existe uma correlação entre as atividades de animação nas diversas categorias praticadas pelo sénior e idoso com a sua qualidade de vida? e será que existe uma relação e grau de concordância entre a Escala da Qualidade de Vida de Flanagan e a Escala da Qualidade de Vida WHOQOL-Bref? Os objetivos principais deste estudo foram: descrever a relação entre as atividades de animação nas diversas categorias praticadas pelo sénior e idoso com a sua qualidade de vida e; conhecer a relação existente e o grau de concordância entre as Escalas da qualidade de vida de Flanagan e WHOQOL-Bref. No sentido de conhecer em que medida as atividades de animação se correlacionam com a qualidade de vida na população sénior e idosa foi realizado um estudo descritivo-correlacional nos Centros Comunitários “Vila Viva” e “Cidade Viva”, pertencentes à Autarquia de Câmara de Lobos. A população foi constituída por 71 indivíduos, maioritariamente do género feminino e com idades compreendidas entre os 55 e 80 anos. Para avaliar o grau de frequência de realização das atividades, a satisfação perante as mesmas, bem como as atividades realizadas pelos inquiridos, foi elaborado um questionário pela investigadora, o qual foi testado previamente. Avaliou-se as variáveis sociodemográficas, através de um questionário, igualmente elaborado pela investigadora. Para avaliar a variável qualidade de vida, a investigadora considerou importante o uso de duas escalas: Escala da qualidade de vida de Flanagan e Escala da qualidade de vida WHOQOL-Bref. Dado considerar que embora ambas as escalas meçam a mesma variável, elas complementam-se, uma vez que a Escala de Flanagan insere-se no modelo da satisfação, enquanto que a escala WHOQOL-Bref insere-se dentro do modelo funcionalista (Fleck, 2008). Ambos os modelos (funcionalista e da satisfação) são modelos teóricos subjacentes ao conceito da qualidade de vida no idoso. Como principais resultados, evidenciou-se uma baixa frequência de realização das atividades de animação. No entanto, os inquiridos que participam com maior frequência na realização de atividades tendem a evidenciar melhor qualidade de vida. Questionados acerca da forma como se sentiam quando realizavam as atividades de animação, verificou-se que 50.7% dos inquiridos afirmaram que se sentiam bem, seguidos de 40.8% que se sentiam muito bem. Uma percentagem significativa de inquiridos (45.1%) considerou a realização das atividades de animação importante ou muito importante para a ocupação dos seus tempos livres. Analisando comparativamente os resultados observados para as dimensões da escala WHOQOL-Bref pode-se afirmar que os seniores e idosos evidenciaram melhor qualidade de vida nos domínios das relações sociais e psicológico e pior qualidade de vida em termos físicos. Os inquiridos que evidenciaram melhor qualidade de vida através da Escala WHOQOL-Bref tenderam a evidenciar melhor qualidade de vida através da Escala de Flanagan, ou seja, verifica-se uma boa relação e um bom grau de concordância entre as duas escalas. Os principais resultados demonstraram que os seniores e idosos evidenciaram razoável qualidade de vida em ambas as escalas (WHOQOL-Bref e Flanagan). Sugere-se que seria importante a continuidade do presente estudo.

O envelhecimento populacional está associado a necessidades de saúde, incluindo aspectos ligados à realização das actividades diárias e as actividades socioculturais enquanto vertente ocupacional. O presente estudo procurou analisar a funcionalidade dos idosos, como também observar a relação das actividades socioculturais enquanto um fomento da funcionalidade do idoso ao nível da saúde física e mental, de uma amostra de idosos institucionalizados e não institucionalizados. O instrumento utilizado foi a OARS, desenvolvido para possibilitar uma avaliação da capacidade funcional em cinco áreas essenciais na qualidade de vida do idoso: recursos sociais (com ou sem participação em grupos de actividades Socioculturais); recursos económicos; saúde mental; saúde física e actividades de vida diárias. Num estudo realizado a 47 indivíduos com idades superiores a 65 anos que frequentem qualquer instituição, deparamo-nos com uma predominância de indivíduos do sexo feminino em relação sexo masculino, representando, respectivamente, 72% e 28% da população em estudo. Em relação às idades, estas variam entre os 65 e os 85 e mais anos, sendo que a distribuição da média por idades assenta na classe etária compreendida entre os 70 e os 74 anos, com um desvio padrão de 3,45 anos. Este estudo permitiu o conhecimento das necessidades determinadas através das AVD’s e das ASC’s consideradas mais importantes, assim como a percepção sobre as possíveis influências destas no desempenho funcional dos idosos. No que concerne aos resultados obtidos, constatou-se que não existe uma significância relevante entre a influência do meio onde estão inseridos os idosos e a funcionalidade.

The aim of this study was to follow the daily routine of elderly individuals residing at the Vila Vicentina Júlia Freire (VVJF) nursing home in João Pessoa, Brazil, observing and analyzing as much as possible, the way in which they live in a group and how they deal, through personal experiences, with their own body image and with that of others. The results were obtained from information considered relevant, according to the perspectives of the residents themselves, contained in narratives of their history and related to their quality of life. Our interest lays in how they coped with changes in their bodies at old age and adapted to the challenges of this new phase. To obtain this information, with significant expressions, we used the Narrative Interview (NI) as a research tool in order to redeem their life experience and develop an understanding of their impressions about the life experience at the current nursing home. We selected, among the housed, ten subjects - actors - to appear as a sample of the group together. The design of our sample had a hybrid model, combining two types: random sample (probability) and an intentional sample (not probability). After recording transcripts and ensuring that all the subjects showed common interests that were relevant to the group, we chose three categories for analysis as follows: a. the elderly as seen by themselves and by others; b. religiosity as a moral factor; c. intimacy and relationships. Our choice was based on the importance of the theme as a multidisciplinary topic in the quality of life of populations. The subjects, chosen as spokespersons for the VVJF, spoke, among other things, about the way in which they viewed the world, their own body and how they experienced the environment and their fellow residents, in an attitude of reflection and criticism that confirms the lucidity of an old age conditioned to an elderly institution. The method allowed us to investigate our subjects from a multidisciplinary point of view. We suggest other studies in assorted areas of the human sciences, having as principle, man at the center of all our scientific questionings. The paradigm that the elder is, necessarily, unhappy in his sheltered has been, in this job, broken through the testimonies collected, establishing multiple perspectives of the analyzed subjects by their respective narrative records. Involving the participation of researchers with major in Administration, Communication and Law, this study filled, in this aspect, the requirements of the multidisciplinarity of the Program of Pos-Graduation in Health Science

Resilience consists of a capacity to adapt and overcome situations of risk, from the aid of protective factors. This construct constitutes a process of preventive and multidimensional present in all stages of human development. During this development, it has been immersed in the elderly biopsychosocial changes resulting from the aging process. In this sense, there was a need for a multidisciplinary study, combining psychology, medicine, nursing, social work and gerontology in order to check the resilience, its risk factors, such as life events and health, and protection, such as self-esteem and social support. For this, we performed a descriptive exploratory study of cross-sectional nature, along with a convenience sample consisting of 65 elderly users of the public health of the district east of the city of Natal/RN, Brazil. This research allowed the collection of socio-demographic, economic, relational, physical, biological and psychological in understanding the aging process. It is observed that the studied sample socio-economic status and chronic health conditions in their own lives and their families, that demand for care and attention every day, are resilient, have faced significant losses, have positive self-esteem and social support perceived as external satisfactory. Given this multidimensional nature, the aging process deserves the attention of many professionals and health policies, seeking provide to the elderly a better living conditions and mechanisms that promote well-being and health

We understand that the successful old age is not confined only in the analysis of quantitative aspects concerning the economic situation of the subject that gets old, but this special way of aging is related to other values, such as dignity, happiness, self-esteem, willingness, autonomy, independence, social involvement with family and friends, among others. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the human aging process, considering the history of life of ten seniors who fit the profile of successful old age, seeking to identify elements that contribute to educational thinking in order to get a successful aging. In this perspective, we argue in this study, the idea that we need to learn to engage in experiences that more than providing satisfaction and well-being in the moment in which we conducted, serve as a potentiating to a successful old age. Thus, throughout this thesis we question: what are the present indicative in the histories of life of elderly people, considered successful, which may contribute to an education that people experiencing their age more satisfactorily. This is a qualitative study, that took as universe a methodological oral history, in which we used as a technique of research a semistructured interview as a part of their life history, with emphasis on consideration of the following categories: diary routine, with emphasis on social harmony in the family, at work and in friendship groups of leisure and physical activity, self-knowledge and the learning experiences throughout life. To get the objectives outlined, as well as lectured on the categories analyzed, we support our reflection on the theory of the course of life, which includes human aging as a historical and cultural contextual reality. Our research revealed, among other things, that successful aging is coupled to an active lifestyle, where the involvement in physical activities, recreational and social experiences throughout life is important for increasing self-esteem, autonomy and joy of living, conditions that enable successful old age. Our study also revealed that the educationfor successful old age is linked with the consumption along the life, educational activities which broaden the possibilities of social interaction between people, even among different generations, since the interaction is important to learn and accept our possibilities and limits.

This research presents a study that seeks to analyze the images of the future in science fiction movies, specifically those made through animation techniques, exploring particularly the representation of audiovisual communication medias in its dialogue with the approached societies in the movies chosen to be analyzed. The proposed discussion seeks approximations in order to answer to the question that initiated this research: how are we thinking the future nowadays? It also seeks to, according to Morin (1997), comprehend aspects of the contemporary society by using the cinema, and at the same time, to understand the cinema, aided by a social analysis

The elderly population growth in Brazil and in the world is an incontestable reality, arising from a significant declining rate in mortality and fertility, resulting from the remarkable improvements in the quality of life of the people. Associated with the introduction of new technologies in the medical area, these issues have been highly contributing for the increase of the population longevity. The numbers of the elderly in Brazil and in the world show female population predominance within the aging segment, a phenomenon known as the feminisation of the old-age . Aging, therefore, is nowadays one of the primary issues and that has been mobilizing the Brazilian s society, since the development raised from this new reality brought with it enormous challenges and complex social implications which are already felt in the daily lives of the societies. My work experience among some age groups has shown that aging is a much differentiated process which has instigated my interest in understanding why aging has to face an overwhelming and painful experience for some people and enriched and full of signification for others. Overviewing, this research aimed to understand the aging development through the analysis of the processes of signification and production of meaning that permeate the aging and the subjective well-being of three aged women participants of the Project Health and Citizenship on Third Age /CEFET-RN, that evidenced attitudes and behaviors concerning the integration and the activity toward the elderly population. The methodological strategy used was History of Life, starting from collecting data based on deep interviews. The analysis of data evidenced that the elderly well-being is a unique and distinct meaningful experience for each person, concerning each story of their lives within differentiated social, cultural, economic context, from this perspective one can demystify the concept of that aging occurs in a homogeneous way for everyone, everywhere and with the same rhythm. The narratives presented in this research showed the human development as being a dialectic, discursive and interactionist process which extends throughout the adult life and continues to the aging life. The guarantee that development and aging are a parallel phenomenon always in interdependence on the preceding phases of live, are corroborated within the studies. This present study confirms that the elderly population can be a phase of growth, personal realization and continued development, without disrespecting the heterogeneous and the subjectivity of the person who ages. Notifying those healthy and well-succeeded aging experiences, this issue has the intention to contribute to demystify the concept of aging as a social problem, illness needed to be treated, and the stereotypy of the elderly being dependent and unproductive
