Abstract(s)
O processo de envelhecimento da população é um fenómeno a nível mundial, cada vez mais discutido na atualidade dado ao aumento da população idosa e ao “lugar” que esta ocupa na sociedade. Uma vez que incluir os idosos em sistemas intergeracionais se tem tornado num enorme desafio contemporâneo e universal, o tema sobre o processo de envelhecimento é comum a várias organizações internacionais que por sua vez determinam princípios e orientações associados ao conceito e aos fatores determinantes de Envelhecimento Ativo. Assim, o presente estudo, encontra-se submetido à temática do processo de Envelhecimento Ativo, tendo como objetivo primordial conhecer os hábitos de vida dos idosos residentes no meio rural tendo como referência indicadores teóricos sobre os fatores determinantes de Envelhecimento Ativo. Para a sua realização enveredamos pelo paradigma quantitativo como opção metodológica, optando pelo estudo descritivo como desenho de investigação. Como técnica de recolha de dados utilizámos o inquérito por questionário aplicado a uma amostra de 62 idosos dos quais 31 idosos do género masculino e 31 idosos do género feminino naturais e residentes na freguesia de Rebordelo concelho de Vinhais. Para a análise e tratamento dos dados adquiridos neste trabalho de investigação foi utilizado o programa informático SPSS 20. Com a realização deste estudo, verifica-se que as diferentes variáveis sociodemográficas não se encontram significativamente relacionadas com os fatores determinantes de Envelhecimento Ativo dado que os idosos residentes neste meio rural envelhecem ativamente, uma vez que participam nas questões culturais da aldeia, avaliam positivamente o seu estado de saúde, são na sua maioria autónomos, sentem-se fisicamente ativos, encontram-se economicamente satisfeitos e vão mantendo relações sociais com a rede familiar e de vizinhança não havendo divergências expressivas entre homens e mulheres.
The process of population aging is a worldwide phenomenon, increasingly discussed today given the increasing elderly population and the "place" that it occupies in society. Include the elderly in intergenerational systems has become a huge challenge contemporary and universal, theme about the aging process is inherent in the various international organizations that in turn determine principles and guidelines associated with the concept and determinants Active Ageing. Thus, the present study is submitted to the thematic of Active Ageing, its main objectives are to know the habits of life of older people living in rural areas with reference to indicators on the theoretical determinants of Active Ageing. For its realization, we chose the quantitative paradigm as a methodological option, opting for a descriptive study as the research design. As a technique for data collection, we used the survey questionnaire, investigating a sample of 62 individuals, including 31 elderly men and 31elderly women residents in the village of Rebordelo, in the municipality of Vinhais. For the analysis and processing of the data acquired in this research, we used the computer program SPSS 20. With this study, it was found that the different sociodemographic variables are not significantly related to the determinants of Active Ageing given that older rural residents this age actively, since participating in cultural issues of the village, positively evaluate the their health status, are mostly autonomous, feel physically active, are economically satisfied and will maintain social relationships with the network of family and neighborhood with no significant differences among men and women.
