WENDT, Bruna; TAVARES, Maria Danielle Figueira; PENNO, Daniele Kindlein y DELL'AGLIO, Débora Dalbosco. Social images associated to residential care institutions. Rev. SPAGESP [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.1, pp. 35-48. ISSN 1677-2970.
This study investigated the social images assigned to residential care institutions, through an open questionnaire. The participants were 202 people, aged 16 to 69 years old (M=32.76, SD=11.67), who indicated 914 words to describe the institutions. Through content analysis, the following categories were identified: (1) Care/Protection (n=342), (2) Organization/Operation (n=238), (3) Resources (n=229), (4) Formation/Preparation (n=73), (5) Permanence/Temporariness (n=18), (6) Others (n=14), and each word was classified by its positive or negative valence. There was a predominance of positive valence in all categories, suggesting a positive social image of these institutions. The data indicated that the functions of care and organization, as well as the availability of resources of the institutions are more recognized by the participants.
