Resumo
O envelhecimento da população tem se tornando um dos maiores desafios das últimas décadas, principalmente no que diz respeito à saúde pública. No Brasil, é um fenômeno recente o crescimento dos índices da população acima dos 60 anos e está fortemente relacionado à melhoria da qualidade de vida. O presente estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a qualidade de vida de idosos participantes e não participantes em grupos de convivência no município de Barão de Antonina, São Paulo. Trata-se de um estudo transversal do tipo observacional, realizado com 130 idosos. Para a coleta de dados utilizou-se um questionário dados sócio-demográficos e a segunda parte foi construído com base na escala de Flanagan para a avaliação da qualidade de vida dos entrevistados. Resultados: Dos 130 idosos entrevistados, a idade média foi de 71,26 anos para o grupo dos não participantes e 69,49 anos para os participantes, a maioria para os dois grupos era do sexo feminino (64,62%), casados (62,31%), a escolaridade para os dois grupos predominou de 1 a 4 anos (65,38%), 80% eram aposentados e 71,54% tinham renda até um salário mínimo. A utilização da escala de Flanagan apresentou um valor de αde Cronbach de 0, 767 para o total da amostra, em comparação entre os grupos o coeficiente αde Cronbach foi maior para o grupo dos não participantes 0,751 e para os participantes o mesmo coeficiente obtido foi de 0,609. Esses resultados demonstram a eficiência do instrumento . A média dos escores obtidos através da aplicação da escala de Flanagan foi de 70,64 (desvio padrão de 13,83) para o grupo dos não participantes, enquanto que o grupo dos participantes a média do escore foi maior 86,54 (desvio padrão de 10,07) Já se ao traçar a análise comparativa entre o grupo de participantes e não participantes sobre qualidade de vida utilizando-se da Escala de Qualidade de Vida de Flanagan, o grupo dos não participantes revelou escores menores em itens da escala. Espera-se que com este estudo possa se reforçar a importância da estratégia de grupos de convivência na promoção de um envelhecimento ativo e direcionar estratégias das políticas públicas no fortalecimento dessa prática.
Population aging has become one of the biggest challenges of recent decades, particularly with regard to public health. In Brazil, it is a recent phenomenon the growth rates of the population over 60 years and is strongly related to improved quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the quality of life of elderly participants and non-participants in community groups in the city of Barão de Antonina, Sao Paulo. It is a cross-sectional observational study, conducted with 130 elderly. For data collection was used a questionnaire sociodemographic data and the second part was built on Flanagan scale for evaluating the quality of life of respondents. Results: Of the 130 elderly respondents, the average age was 71.26 years for the group of non-participants and 69.49 years for participants, the majority in both groups were female (64.62%), married ( 62.31%), education for both groups prevailed 1-4 years (65.38%), 80% were retired and 71.54% had income than the minimum wage. The use of the Flanagan's scale had a Cronbach's alpha value of 0, 767 for the total sample, compared between groups αde the Cronbach coefficient was higher for the group of non-participants and 0.751 for the same participants obtained coefficient was 0.609. These results demonstrate the efficiency of the instrument. The average of the scores obtained by applying the Flanagan scale was 70.64 (SD = 13.83) for the group of non-participants, while the group of participants the mean score was higher 86.54 (standard deviation 10.07) It has been to trace the comparative analysis between the group of participants and non-participants on quality of life using the Quality of Life Scale of Flanagan, the group of non-participants showed lower scores on the scale items. It is hoped that this study can reinforce the importance of community groups strategy in promoting active aging and direct strategies of public policies to strengthen this practic
