Resumo: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between social support to elderly patients with cognitive alterations in different contexts of social vulnerability and the presence of children living in the same household. A descriptive, cross-sectional study assessed 85 elderly individuals in different contexts of social vulnerability; all of them presented results below the cut-off point in the mini mental state examination. All ethical guidelines were respected. A sociodemographic and family characterization tool, the mini mental state examination, and the Medical Outcomes Study (MOS) were applied. The results showed good levels of social support received by elderly individuals and a statistically significant correlation between the extent of emotional support and the presence of children in the household (t=2.16, p<0.01). These results enable a better understanding on the relationships between elderly people and children by evidencing that intergenerational contact favors the perception of satisfactory social support by the elderly.

Trata-se de um estudo descritivo, transversal, que avaliou 85 idosos residentes em diferentes contextos de vulnerabilidade social, e que apresentaram resultado no Mini Exame do Estado Mental abaixo da nota de corte. Todos os cuidados éticos foram observados. Foram aplicados instrumento de caracterização sociodemográfica e familiar, Mini Exame do Estado Mental e o Medical Outcomes Study (MOS). Os resultados revelaram bons níveis de apoio social recebidos pelos idosos e correlação estatisticamente significativa entre a dimensão de apoio emocional e a presença de crianças no domicílio (t=2,16, sendo p<0,01). Esses resultados possibilitam conhecer melhor a relação entre idosos e crianças ao revelar que o contato intergeracional favorece a percepção de apoio social satisfatório pelos idosos.Faculdade de Enfermagem da UFG2015-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/2559710.5216/ree.v17i3.25597Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; Vol. 17 No. 3 (2015); 25597Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem; v. 17 n. 3 (2015); 255971518-1944reponame:Revista Eletrônica de Enfermageminstname:Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)instacron:UFGporenghttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/25597/20743https://revistas.ufg.br/fen/article/view/25597/20744https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessLuchesi, Bruna MorettiBrito, Tábatta Renata Pereira deCosta, Reijane SalazarPavarini, Sofia Cristina Iost2022-09-29T17:31:38Zoai:ojs.revistas.ufg.br:article/25597Revistahttps://revistas.ufg.br/fenPUBhttps://revistas.ufg.br/fen/oairee.fen@ufg.br1518-19441518-1944opendoar:2022-09-29T17:31:38Revista Eletrônica de Enfermagem - Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG)false
