Abstract(s)
A motivação principal deste estudo prendeu-se pela compreensão da importância das relações intergeracionais-afetivas para o bem-estar e desenvolvimento dos intervenientes. Encontrados em tempos espaciais, mas tão distantes nos marcos temporais, os mais velhos acarretam consigo histórias e experiências de vida advindas de tudo o que se já viveram e os mais novos, o sabor do desconhecido onde tudo é uma descoberta. Uns são fruto das memórias, outros começam agora a patentear o mundo imenso que há a descodificar. Juntos podem contribuir para a construção de novos saberes, ajudar a ser mais felizes e assim, constituir um mundo melhor.
Seguindo um quadro teórico suportado, importou deslindar diferentes noções, nomeadamente a afetividade, o processo de desenvolvimento da terceira idade e da primeira fase e os contributos destas relações para os envolvidos.
Relativamente ao estudo empírico, elegeu-se uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa na configuração de estudo de caso, que teve como base entrevistas semiestruturadas aos idosos e aos respetivos técnicos da instituição importantes à apreensão da realidade e a observação dos momentos existentes entre as gerações.
Desta forma, comprovou-se a importância das mesmas para o bem-estar dos intervenientes, porém, tendo em conta o número de momentos de observação não fora possível referir a existência de aprendizagens novas.
Revela-se primordial o incentivo de momentos de relação mais constantes, onde sejam realizadas atividades programadas antecipadamente, focadas, essencialmente, no objetivo de estimular as diferentes áreas dos intervenientes.
The main motivation of this study is the comprehension of the importance of intergenerational relationships of affection to the well-being of the participants. Sharing the same space, but so apart in time, the older ones entail stories and life experience from all that they have gone through, while the younger ones have in them the thrill of the unknown where everything is new. Ones are the product of memories, the others are starting to patent the world yet to decipher. Together, they can build new knowledge, be happier and make a better world. Following a supported theorical base, it was important to understand different concepts: affection, the third and first age development process and the contributions of these relations to the participants. Regarding the empirical study, a qualitative methodology approach was chosen for each case study, consisting of semi structured interviews to the seniors and their respective technical staff, who help by observing and reporting the moments between the two generations. The results showed the importance of these moments to the well-being of the participants, however, due to the number of moments observed, it wasn´t possible mention the existence of new knowledge. It is of paramount importance to incentivize more frequent moments of bonding, with preprogrammed activities, focused on stimulating multiple areas of the participants.
