Abstract(s)
O presente estudo teve como principal objetivo contribuir para a caracterização e avaliação da Resiliência e do Autocuidado em pacientes diagnosticados com Diabetes Mellitus 2, a sua variação em função das variáveis sexo e idade, bem como a relação entre as duas variáveis – Resiliência e Autocuidado. A amostra foi composta por 71 adultos diagnosticad0s com Diabetes Mellitus Tipo 2 com idades compreendidas entre os 43 e os 91 anos. Foram administrados um Questionário Sociodemográfico, a Escala de Resiliência para Adultos (ERA) e a Escala de Atividades de Autocuidado com a Diabetes (EAAD). Foi possível constatar que os participantes do sexo feminino têm uma tendência para apresentar níveis mais elevados de comportamentos de autocuidado com a Diabetes, assim como de Resiliência – quando comparados com indivíduos do sexo masculino. Foi possível verificar um decréscimo dos comportamentos de autocuidado com o aumento da idade. Ademais, constatouse uma relação positiva entre a Resiliência e o Autocuidado, bem como a capacidade preditiva da Resiliência nos níveis de Autocuidado.
The main purpose of this study was to contribute to the characterization and evaluation of Resilience and Self-Care in patients diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, their variation according to the variables of sex and age, as well as the relationship between the two variables – Resilience and Self-Care. The sample consisted of 71 adults diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, aged between 43 and 91 years old. A Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Adult Resilience Scale (ARS) and the Diabetes Self-Care Activities Scale were administered. It was possible to observe that female participants have a tendency towards the prevalence of both Diabetes Self-Care behaviours and Resilience – when compared to male individuals. It was possible to observe a decrease in Self-Care behaviours with increasing age. Furthermore, a positive relationship was found between Resilience and Self-Care, as well as the predictive capacity of Resilience in Self-Care.
