SALLES, Rodrigo Jorge  e  TARDIVO, Leila Salomão de La Plata Cury. Studies about the employment of the Senior Apperception Test (SAT) in long-living elders. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.1, pp.104-113. ISSN 1677-0471.  https://doi.org/10.15689/ap.2022.2101.22207.11.

This study presents the results of a comparative correlational investigation using the Senior Apperception Test (SAT). Study participants were 30 long-living older adults, divided into two groups: those who live in the community and the residents of a long-term institution. The study used a characterization questionnaire, eight SAT cards, the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15), and the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMEE). The comparison of the SAT results showed that the institutionalized older adults had a more positive perception about aging. The correlations demonstrated that higher GDS-15 scores were moderately associated with the absence of solutions to problems in the stories elaborated for the SAT. It was found that low MMEE scores were related to a higher number of distortions or superficiality in the perception of the SAT stimulus, as well as to a greater number of narratives that were distant from the themes evoked in the cards.
