Resumen

NAIFF, Luciene Alves Miguez; NAIFF, Denis Giovani Monteiro  y  BRAZ, Alcina Maria Testa. Social representations on quality of life in the school scenario. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.2, pp.563-585. ISSN 1808-4281.

The aim of this study was to identify the views on social representations presented by 110 teachers. All interviewees work at municipal schools located at low income communities where life quality is deeply compromised. The social representations can be seen as 'filters' that help us comprehend our surroundings but also orientate inter-personal relationships. The proposal was to identify central and peripheral elements around the term quality of life. Therefore, according to these teachers the central elements were: health, education, family and subsistence and it corresponds to how teachers perceive all the vulnerabilities faced by their students. As peripheral elements appeared the following terms leisure, peace and housing. Teachers perceive their students as lacking basic items that make up the definition of quality of life and credit the school an important role in reversing this situation.

Palabras clave : Social representations; Teachers; Quality of life.
