Abstract

Foram seleccionados 119 participantes (com idades compreendidas entre os 65-88 anos), de ambos os géneros, pertencentes à classe média e/ou média-alta. Foram utilizados os seguintes instrumentos: Questionário Sócio-Demográfico, Questionário Da Vida Sexual Depois dos 60 Anos, Questionário sobre a Qualidade das Relações Íntimas e Questionário de Suporte Social – SSQ6. Fez-se uma comparação entre os géneros e os grupos de participantes com e sem parceiro sexual; os resultados mostraram diferenças estatisticamente significativas ao nível de algumas dimensões da sexualidade.
