Participaram da pesquisa cinco casais adultos que se encontravam no semestre anterior ao casamento e que ainda não moravam juntos. Os participantes responderam a entrevistas individuais semiestruturadas e os dados obtidos a partir das entrevistas foram submetidos a uma análise de conteúdo qualitativa. Nos casos estudados, constatou-se tanto a presença de motivações transgeracionais, baseadas nos modelos conjugais parentais, como uma maior busca, no outro, por similaridades do que por complementaridades. Destacou-se tanto a importância dos modelos aprendidos nas famílias de origem como referenciais a serem seguidos ou evitados como a importãncia das ideias e das características comuns em prol de uma convivência mais harmônica. É importante considerar, no entanto, que a escolha constitui um processo complexo no qual interagem diferentes fatores.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2010-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7158Psychological Studies; Vol. 27 No. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 27 Núm. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 27 n. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7158/4722Copyright (c) 2022 Isabela Machado da SILVA, Clarissa Corrêa MENEZES, Rita de Cássia Sobreira LOPEShttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSILVA, Isabela Machado da MENEZES, Clarissa Corrêa LOPES, Rita de Cássia Sobreira 2024-04-25T19:26:05Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7158Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-25T19:26:05Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
