Resumo: | The aim of this study was to understand the motivations of informal caregivers of elderly people with functional dependence in Brazil and Portugal to assume this care. This is an exploratory-descriptive study with a qualitative approach based on the Theory of Social Representations. Participants were 21 Brazilian family caregivers and 11 informal Portuguese caregivers of dependent elderly people. The collection was carried out through the interview and from the analysis of Bardin's Content three categories emerged: “Family relationship”, “Social Representations about the home” and “Social Representations about old age”. It was noticed that family relationships are an important reason for deciding care by family members, but that caregivers were also concerned with meeting the expectations of the place and the condition of the elderly in society. |

Este es un estudio exploratorio descriptivo con un enfoque cualitativo basado en la Teoría de las representaciones sociales. Los participantes fueron 21 cuidadores familiares brasileños y 11 cuidadores informales portugueses de personas mayores dependientes. La colección se realizó a través de la entrevista y del análisis del contenido de Bardin surgieron tres categorías: "Relación familiar", "Representaciones sociales sobre el hogar" y "Representaciones sociales sobre la vejez". Se observó que las relaciones familiares son una razón importante para la decisión de la atención de los miembros de la familia, pero que los cuidadores también se preocuparon por cumplir con las expectativas del lugar y la condición de los ancianos en la sociedad.Na tentativa de suprir as necessidades de cuidado ao idoso a família comumente é a instituição que assume tal função. Com o objetivo de compreender as representações sociais dos cuidadores informais de idosos brasileiros e portugueses acerca das motivações para o cuidado, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, exploratória-descritiva, fundamentada na Teoria das Representações Sociais, em que foram entrevistados 21 cuidadores informais brasileiros e 11 cuidadores informais portugueses de idosos dependentes. Utilizou-se a Análise de Conteúdo Temática e o software QSR NVivo® no tratamento dos dados e os resultados evidenciaram como principais motivações o cuidado: as relações familiares, em que o matrimônio, parentalidade e os afetos decorrentes destas relações conduziram a função; a representação negativa dos cuidadores portugueses sobre o lar, como local de abandono e ação contrária à norma cultural; e a representação da pessoa idosa como frágil e dependente, que assim como as crianças, precisam constantemente de cuidados e atenção.Editora Mackenzie2021-10-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1342810.5935/1980-6906/ePTPSP13428The Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 23 No. 3 (2021); ePTPSP13428Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 23 Núm. 3 (2021); ePTPSP13428Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 23 n. 3 (2021); ePTPSP134281980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
