Resumo: Increased human longevity has been attributed to technological and medical advances, as well as improved hygiene and nutritional conditions, access to health care, changes in eating habits and cognitive development strategies (Osório, 2007). The present study examined the influence of leisure actions in the psychological well-being, leisure attitude and distress of seniors. The sample consisted of 403 participants (37,2% male; 62,8% female). Concerning the perception of health condition, 82,6% subjects were considered independent and 17,4% participants were considered dependent. The instruments used were the MHI (Ribeiro, 2001) and the LAS (Freire & Fonte, 2007). Main results exposed that participants in leisure activities presented high level of well-being and attitude for leisure (p<0,05). Seniors that present big levels of distress indicated an intention to participate in activities of leisure that aided to decrease that symptom. Results showed that seniors health perception influenced the practice of a leisure activity [Hotelling’s Trace = 0,077; F (3; 341) = 8,733; p = 0,00]. The results found helped to recognize the necessity, and importance, of leisure activities between seniors.

Cette recherche visait à étudier l’effet des activités de loisirs pour le bien-être psychologique, l’attitude face aux loisirs et la détresse des personnes âgées. L’échantillon a été composé par 403 participants (37,2% hommes; 62,8% femmes). En ce qui concerne la perception de l’état de santé, 82,6% des sujets ont été considérés indépendants, tandis que 17,4% participants ont été considérés dépendant. Les instruments utilisés étaient le MHI (Ribeiro, 2001) et la LAS (Freire & Fonte, 2007). Les principaux résultats ont montré que les sujets sont impliqués dans des activités de loisirs de niveau élevé présentent du bien-être et de l’attitude pour les loisirs (p <0,05). Les participants qui éprouvent des niveaux élevés de détresse, cherchent à s’engager dans des activités de loisirs ce qui les aident à réduire ce symptôme. Il a été constaté que la perception de la santé des personnes âgées influence la pratique d’une activité de loisirs [Hotelling’s Trace = 0,077; F (3; 341) = 8,733; p = 0,00]. Les résultats obtenus ont aidé à intention reconnaître la nécessité et l’importance des activités de loisirs chez les personnes âgées.O aumento da longevidade humana tem sido atribuído aos avanços tecnológicos e médicos, assim como a uma melhoria das condições de higiene, condições de nutrição, acesso aos cuidados de saúde, mudança nos hábitos alimentares, ou a estratégias de desenvolvimento cognitivo (Osório, 2007). O presente estudo analisou a influência das actividades de lazer no bem-estar psicológico, na atitude para o lazer e no distress dos idosos. A amostra foi composta por 403 participantes (37,2% do sexo masculino e 62,8% do sexo feminino). Quanto à percepção da condição de saúde, 82,6% dos indivíduos são independentes e 17,4% dos participantes foram considerados dependentes. Os instrumentos utilizados foram o MHI (Ribeiro, 2001) e a LAS (Freire & Fonte, 2007). Os principais resultados mostram que os participantes em atividades de lazer apresentaram alto nível de bem-estar e uma boa atitude para o lazer (p <0,05). Os idosos que apresentam grandes níveis de distress indicaram a intenção de participar em atividades de lazer que ajudam a diminuir esse sintoma. Os resultados mostraram que a percepção de saúde dos idosos influenciou a prática de uma atividade de lazer [Hotelling’s Trace = 0,077; F (3; 341) = 8,733; p = 0,00]. Os resultados encontrados apoiam a necessidade e a importância das atividades de lazer na terceira idade.El aumento de la longevidad humana se atribuye a los avances tecnológicos y médicos, así como una mejora de la higiene, las condiciones de nutrición, acceso a la salud, el cambio en los hábitos alimenticios, o a estrategias de desarrollo cognitivo (Osório, 2007).
