Abstract(s)
Na atualidade cada vez mais a nossa sociedade dá ênfase ao bem-estar e ao desenvolvimento integral da criança/jovem, sendo que toda a legislação que envolve esta população é imprescindível de modo a ser possível garantir-lhes os seus direitos. Garantir a sua efetivação é uma forma de lutar contra os maus tratos a que crianças/jovens podem ser expostos, pelo que esta garantia é um dever reconhecido pela sociedade.
O presente estudo visou perceber como os jovens institucionalizados se posicionam perante a instituição, escola, perspetivas de futuro e satisfação com a vida, tendo sido realizada uma investigação de cariz qualitativa, utilizando um Instrumento de Inquérito por Questionário e uma Escala de Satisfação com a Vida designada por Satisfaction With Life Scale (SWLS) sendo esta traduzida e aferida para a população portuguesa pelo autor Simões (1992). O presente estudo, contou com uma amostra de
11 sujeitos institucionalizados com idades entre os 11 e os 22 anos, sendo 5 do género feminino e 6 do género masculino. Em termos de resultados, conclui-se que para a generalidade dos jovens a instituição trabalha em prol do que realmente gostam e, em termos escolares consideram que é um meio propício para um melhor futuro. Referente às perspetivas de futuro concluiu-se que a maior parte dos inquiridos tem definidos os seus objetivos de vida, obtendo-se respostas direcionadas para as questões profissionais. Para a satisfação com a vida aferiu-se que mais de metade dos inquiridos apresenta médias acima do valor médio de 2,5, concluindo-se que, no geral, os jovens se sentem satisfeitos com a sua vida.
