Sumario: |
This work is part of a larger research carried out by the Salesian Polytechnic
University, which is named after: "Cognitive development, quality of life and
subjective perception of aging". The objective of this study is to know the subjective
perception about aging, present in the group of older adults in the Barrio San Vicente
de Yaruquí, in the period between April and July 2016.
The subjective perception refers to the processes of meaning that are configured within
the subject, the same ones that are constructed along the vital time in relation to social
spaces and personal characteristics, all from a biopsychosocial-cultural and historical
(Gonzalez, 2012).
In order to unveil these subjective perceptions about aging, in these moments of their
vital trajectories, the qualitative methodology was used, through focus groups, which
allowed to highlight the discourses of the elderly, participants of this research.
It identifies the presence of a marked tendency to perceive losses and gains during this
time; Such is the case that, as a loss, the reduction of their physical capacity and
vitality, as well as the changes in their family relationships, are markedly identified;
While, as a profit, it identifies the acquisition of knowledge, which links them better
with the community. |
