Resumo:  This article addresses two questions about purpose in life: what is mature purpose, and how can it be cultivated? We first outline a picture of mature purpose based in part on established purpose research, and point out new frameworks that can resolve missing pieces and tensions in the current paradigms. We contend that above and beyond fulfilling discrete criteria present in operational definitions, mature purpose requires agentic yet flexible commitment to worthy goals rather than simplistic adoption of expected goals. A review of purpose formation beyond the classroom identifies similar roles of parents, post-secondary educational institutions, and extracurricular activities for supporting development of mature purpose in the direction of agentic commitment, namely, encouraging processes of: active exploration, tentative commitment, and support in navigating and sustaining meaningful commitment.

Primeiramente, esboçamos um quadro de projetos de vida maduro baseado em parte na pesquisa de projetos de vida estabelecida e apontamos novas estruturas que podem resolver as peças que faltam e as tensões nos paradigmas atuais. Afirmamos que, acima e além de cumprir critérios discretos presentes nas definições operacionais, projetos de vida maduros requerem um comprometimento agente, porém flexível, com metas dignas, em vez da adoção simplista de metas esperadas. Uma revisão da formação de projetos de vida além da sala de aula identifica papéis semelhantes de pais, universidades e atividades extracurriculares para apoiar o desenvolvimento de projetos de vida maduros na direção do compromisso agente, a saber, processos de incentivo de: exploração ativa, compromisso experimental e apoio em navegar e manter um compromisso significativo.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-01-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7288Psychological Studies; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 38 (2021): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPenghttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7288/4848Copyright (c) 2023 Timothy Scott REILLY, Jenni Menon MARIANOhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessREILLY, Timothy ScottMARIANO, Jenni Menon 2023-08-03T13:41:42Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7288Revistahttps://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:2023-08-03T13:41:42Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
