Resumo: Obese people often do not feel fully accepted in society. This research aimed at understanding the Social Representations of obesity and thinness among obese people. In-depth interviews were conducted with questions about what they thought about obesity and thinness, and a questionnaire was applied with questions to characterize the participants. Sixteen adults of both genders between the ages of 20 and 58 years old, considered obese participated in the study. The interview data were analyzed by Descending Hierarchical Classification using the IRaMuTeQ software. Obesity was related to suffering, not acceptance and disease, and thinness represents well-being, happiness and the solution of all conflicts. This way of thinking can be related to the health care practices adopted by people.

Foram realizadas entrevistas em profundidade, com questões sobre o que pensavam sobre a obesidade e a magreza, e foi aplicado um questionário com questões de caracterização dos participantes. Participaram do estudo 16 adultos de ambos os sexos, com idades entre 20 e 58 anos, considerados obesos. Os dados da entrevista foram analisados por Classificação Hierárquica Descendente, com a utilização do software IRaMuTeQ. A obesidade foi relacionada ao sofrimento, à não aceitação e à doença, e à magreza, ao bem-estar, à felicidade e à solução de todos os conflitos. Esta forma de pensar pode estar relacionada às práticas de cuidado com a saúde adotadas pelas pessoas.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2022-09-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/2389610.1590/0102.3772e38512.ptPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 38 (2022)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 38 (2022)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 38 (2022)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 38 (2022)1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
