Resumen

DOS SANTOS, Gilberto Lima. Older adults and their time experiences: implications in development processes. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.11, n.2, pp.382-400. ISSN 1983-8220.  https://doi.org/10.36298/gerais2019110213.

The aim of this study was to understand how older adults experience their time and its possible implications in the processes of development, given the alleged proximity to death. It is a qualitative research, driven by a cultural and narrative perspective in the field of Psychology. The participants were eight older adults from a Neighborhood Association. The narratives were produced through individual semi-structured interviews and focus group. The analysis was based on the understanding of the participants' narratives and seizure of the meanings constituted. The results were organized into predefined categories, according to specific objectives, and on emerging categories over a dialogic movement between the empirical and theoretical dimensions. Participants experience the past, present and future of peculiar modes, and these experiences resonate in the way they take a stance on life and death and vice versa.

Palabras clave : Older adults; Time; Narratives; Meanings; Development.
