Abstract(s)
O presente estudo visa descrever um programa de apoio à transição para o
emprego de jovens com incapacidade intelectual, procurando explorar, com base
na perspetiva dos próprios, fatores das atividades e dos contextos que definem as
experiências de transição mais valorizadas. Foi desenvolvido um estudo
exploratório com a participação de 5 jovens com incapacidade intelectual que
estavam envolvidos em diferentes atividades promovidas pelo projeto. Com
recurso ao método de photovoice, cada participante fotografou aspetos que
pudessem retratar uma ou várias atividades e aquilo que mais os satisfazia. Esses
registos fotográficos foram depois utilizados para orientar 9 sessões de discussão
em grupo focal; descrevendo o contexto e atividade de cada fotografia, evocando
aspetos ou episódios que retratassem boas experiências.
Os conteúdos dos grupos focais foram transcritos e sujeitos a análise de
conteúdo, cuja categorização se organizou em torno de 5 temas: natureza das
atividades; aspetos valorizados nas atividades; redes de contato social;
necessidades de suporte e perspetivas futuras. As ideias/conceitos associados à
descrição dos elementos valorizados nas experiências de transição incluíram: o
Sentido de competência e realização (sentido de saber fazer e aprender e de fazer
aquilo que mais gostam); a Cooperação e Rotatividade – dinâmicas de entreajuda
e a experimentação de diferentes tarefas/ações da atividade; a Amizade – a
importância das relações e do sentido de identidade; e a Ligação à comunidade
present study aims to describe a program to support the transition to the employment of young people with intellectual disabilities, seeking to explore, based on their own perspective, factors of activities and contexts that define the most valued transition experiences. An exploratory study was developed with the participation of 5 young people with intellectual disabilities who were involved in different activities promoted by the project. Using the photovoice method, each participant photographed aspects that could portray one or more activities and what satisfied them the most. These photographic records were then used to guide 9 focus group sessions; describing the context and the activity of each photography, evoking aspects or episodes that portray good experiences. The contents of the focus group were transcribed and subject to analysis of content, whose categorization was organized around 5 themes: the nature of activities; the valued aspects in activities; social contact networks; support needs and future perspectives. The ideas/concepts associated to the description of the valued elements in the transition experiences included: the Sense of competence and achievement (sense of knowing how to do and learn and to do what they love the most); the Cooperation and turnover – dynamics of mutual assistance and the experimentation of different tasks/actions of the activity; the Friendship – the importance of relationships and the sense of identity: and the Connection to the community.
