Caracterização do bem-estar da população idosa Portuguesa: Bem-estar subjectivo, bem-estar psicológico e bem-estar social na população idosa Portuguesa

Abstract

O presente estudo teve como principal objectivo compreender a associação entre três factores demográficos - Sexo, Estado Civil e Nível de Educação – e o Bem-estar da população idosa portuguesa, assim como, analisar a consistência das referidas associações noutros países europeus. Neste sentido, consideraram-se três tipos de bem-estar: Bem-estar Subjectivo, Bem-estar Psicológico e Bem-estar Social. Os dados analisados neste estudo provêm de uma investigação longitudinal - o European Social Surveys –, que tem como objectivo medir as atitudes, os valores, as crenças e as orientações comportamentais dos europeus em relação a uma variedade de temas. Neste estudo foram utilizados os dados relativos a 2006, pois abordam questões relevantes para o estudo, como o bem-estar pessoal e social. A amostra total é constituída por 7863 homens e mulheres divididos entre idosos jovens (entre 65 e 74 anos) e idosos velhos (com 75 ou mais anos). Da análise realizada, podemos concluir que, tanto em Portugal como na União Europeia, existem associações significativas entre as variáveis demográficas e os três tipos de Bem-estar, das quais podemos destacar: valores mais elevados de Bem-estar Subjectivo e Psicológico entre os homens, entre os idosos com companheiro e entre os idosos com mais anos de escolaridade completos. No caso do Bem-estar Social, estas diferenças não se observam em Portugal. Na amostra Europeia, o Bem-estar Social é mais elevado junto dos idosos mais velhos, entre os idosos com companheiro e entre os idosos com mais anos de escolaridade completos.

The main objective of the present study was to understand the association between three demographic variables – Gender, Marital Status and Education Level – and the Well-being of Portuguese elderly, and also to analyze the consistency of such relation in other European countries. In this sense, were considered three types of well-being: Subjective Well-being, Psychological Well-being and Social Well-being. The data analyzed in this study came from a longitudinal investigation - the European Social Surveys - which aims to measure attitudes, values, beliefs and behavioral guidelines in Europe on a variety of topics. In this study the data from 2006 were used, because they approach relevant questions for the study, like the personal and social well-being. The total sample is composed by 7863 men and women, which are divided between young old (between 65 and 74 years old) and oldest old (with 75 or more years). From the analysis, we concluded that both in Portugal and in European Union, there are significant associations between demographic variables and the three types of Well-being. We can highlight: higher levels of Subjective and Psychological Well-being among men, among older people with a partner and old people with higher education. In the case of Social Well-being, these differences were not observed in Portugal. In the European sample, the Social Well-being is higher among the oldest, among the older people with a partner and among old people with higher education.
