Resumo: This study aimed to compare the social representations of Brazilian and Italian subjects about care of elderly people. 40 people over 65 years old were interviewed, 20 Brazilian and 20 Italian. The results showed that social representations of old age and care of elderly people emphasize the importance of keeping one’s autonomy and keeping active, bringing the context of disease and dependence as something unwanted. The experience of old age and the care of the elderly seem more difficult in disease situations in which the grievances impose the need for a "caregiver", which undermines the independence of the elderly. It is necessary to implement education policies for health and aging which take into account the needs of the elderly.

Foram entrevistadas 40 pessoas acima de 65 anos, 20 brasileiros e 20 italianos. Os resultados mostraram que as representações sociais da velhice e do cuidar da pessoa idosa, enfatizam a relevância da autonomia e manutenção da atividade, trazendo o contexto de doenças e dependência como algo indesejável. A vivência da velhice e o cuidar da pessoa idosa parecem mais difíceis em situação de doença, quando os agravos impõe a necessidade de um “cuidador”, o que abala a independência da pessoa idosa. Torna-se necessário a implementação de políticas de educação para a saúde, que levem em consideração as necessidades dos idosos.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2019-10-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/27920Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 34 (2018)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 34 (2018)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 34 (2018)Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 34 (2018)1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
