Cognitive and affective aspects are inseparable from human development, cognition being responsible for the structure it as affection can regulate such development. This thesis aimed to investigate, in a microgenetic perspective, the relationship between cognition and affect. The theoretical method used and were based on Piaget, whose theory also embasou data collection, conducted with six women aged between 60 and 67 years. The research design was through seven steps: (1) initial interview to identify the lifestyle of the participants, (2) clinical interview to investigate the affective aspects of play before the workshops, (3) experiment memory; ( 4) workshops Game Face To Face to practice the game, (5) problem situations, (6) clinical interview to investigate the affective aspects of play after the workshops; (7) Stories about submitting Affective Aspects. The analysis categories were investigated: (1) memory, (2) cognitive aspects of behavior, (3) heuristics, (4) affective aspects of behavior of interest feelings, self-worth and desire. For each of these categories were adapted levels, which allowed to investigate the aspects in question. The results indicate that: (1) first, it is not possible to speak of "respect" in the singular, but in "relationships" because they may be multiple, with varied combinations. The participant with the lowest level of heuristic analysis period demonstrated the lowest level of interest, indicating the importance of the affective aspects in development. The participant with the highest level of heuristic analysis demonstrated the kind of conduct evolved over the three feelings analyzed. The two participants who were in an intermediate level of heuristics not erred in any match, ie, not unbalanced, which also demonstrated the importance of the error in the process of balancing and development. Memory, in turn, played an important role in the analysis of two other participants: one because he had memory complaints, but reached maximum level in the experiment, and although take longer than other participants, she reached intermediate level of heuristics, the other because they had memory complaints and, in fact, reached the lowest level. This last participant also reached intermediate level of heuristics probably thanks to his memory in a broad sense and affective behaviors intermediate, which was enough to keep her in the activity. As seen, there is a single possible relationship between cognition and affection, but several joints between these two dimensions, so one can only speak of "relations" between them. (2) the theory of balancing, as pointed out in the literature review, is confirmed as a reference that may be the point of confluence between cognition and affection, especially if it is by way of conduct, (3) the structural aspects not realize, alone, to analyze the psychological subject, why the need to make such an analysis via the microgenetic approach, (4) there is evidence that studies the development of relations between cognition and affect can be made viable research including conduct of microgêneses affective.
