In this study was aimed to investigate the practical sports level and subjective well-being of the elderly whose attend in Seniors Universities in Porto. The methodology was quantitative, whith an application of a questionnaire. To assess the subjective well-being was used the version translated and adapted from Satisfaction With Life Scale (Diener et al, 1985), and positive and negative affect scale (PANAS), (Watson et al., 1988); also includes a socio-demographic and sports issues. In results, we realize that 76% of the sample practiced some sport activity. For the subjective well-being, the sample showed overall satisfaction with life and positive affects above average. The men had the highest values for satisfaction with life, though women had higher averages in the affections. Regarding age, it was observed an increased in satisfaction with life and a decreased in affects, however, these values were not significant. The relation between sporting practice and subjective well-being, was significant for the positive affect, who practiced sport had the highest average, and those who had increased frequency in practice (4 / 5 times per week), averages showed significant higher than those who have not practiced With this we can conclude that the sport was a factor that increases the subjective well-being of the elderly in the sample studied. |

El bienestar subjetivo es simplemente, la evaluación realizada por el sujeto de sus condiciones de vida. Así, este estudio ha tratado de investigar el nivel del deporte y el bienestar subjetivo (BES) de las personas mayores, deportistas y no deportistas, estudiantes de tres universidades para mayores en la ciudad de Porto. Los cuestionarios fueron: la versión traducida de la satisfacción con la vida, o SWL Diener et al. (1985) y PANAS (afecto positivo y negativo), Watson et al. (1988). Los resultados indicaron que la muestra estaba compuesta de 76% de los profesionales del deporte. Para el desempeño general de BES, el promedio más alto de satisfacción con la vida fueron encontrados en hombres, y para aquellos que viven con el cónyuge. Las mujeres tienen el promedio más alto en los efectos, tanto positivos como negativos. También se encontró que al aumentar la edad a la satisfacción con la vida también aumenta y los afectos se desvanecen. Para obtener una lista del BES con el deporte cuenta de que los grupos deportivos mostró el promedio más alto del estudio, así como aquellos que practican con más frecuencia (4 / 5 veces a la semana). Así pues, podemos concluir que el deporte parece ser un factor decisivo en la mejora del bienestar subjetivo de las personas mayores en esta muestra.A psicologia vem nas últimas décadas, dando ênfase ao estudo do comportamento positivo do Ser humano, como: a felicidade, a motivação e o bem-estar. O bem-estar subjetivo é simplificadamente, a avaliação feita pelo sujeito das suas condições de vida. Dessa forma, o presente estudo procurou investigar o nível da prática desportiva e o bem-estar subjectivo (BES) de idosos, praticantes e não praticantes de atividades desportiva, alunos de três Universidades Seniores localizada na cidade do Porto. Foram aplicados os questionários: versão traduzida e adaptada da Satisfaction With Life Scale, ou SWLS de Diener et al. (1985) e PANAS (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule), de Watson et al. (1988). Os resultados indicaram que a amostra era constituida por 76% de praticantes do desporto. Relativamente aos resultados globais do BES, as médias mais elevadas da satisfação com a vida foram encontradas para os homens, e para quem vivia com o cônjugue. As mulheres apresentaram as maiores médias nos afetos, tanto positivos como negativos. Foi constatado também, que com o aumento da idade a satisfação com a vida também aumenta e os afetos diminuem. Para a relação do BES com a prática desportiva percebemos que os praticantes de desporto apresentaram as médias mais elevadas do estudo, bem como, aqueles que o praticavam com mais frequencia (4/5 vezes na semana). Dessa forma podemos concluir que a prática desportiva parece ser um fator decisivo no incremento do bem-estar subjetivo dos idosos da presente amostra.Editora UPF2012-04-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado por paresAplicação de questionários.application/pdfhttp://seer.upf.br/index.php/rbceh/article/view/56710.5335/rbceh.2012.567Revista Brasileira de Ciências do Envelhecimento Humano; v. 7 n. 3 (2010)2317-66951679-7930reponame:Revista Brasileira de Ciências do Envelhecimento Humano (Online)instname:Universidade de Passo Fundo (UPF)instacron:UPFporhttp://seer.upf.br/index.php/rbceh/article/view/567/pdfMarconcin, Priscila Ellen PintoCorte-Real, NunoDias, CláudiaFonseca, António Manuelinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-11-08T14:05:32Zoai:seer.upf.br:article/567Revistahttp://www.upf.br/seer/index.php/rbcehhttp://www.upf.br/seer/index.php/rbceh/oairbceh@upf.br||pasqualotti@upf.br2317-66951679-7930opendoar:2022-11-08T14:05:32Revista Brasileira de Ciências do Envelhecimento Humano (Online) - Universidade de Passo Fundo (UPF)false |
