Abstract(s)
Bullying, termo comumente usado para descrever atos de agressão que ocorrem
no contexto escolar, difere da agressão em geral na medida em que é um ato repetitivo,
caracterizado por níveis de poder desigual entre vítima e agressor. Contudo, existem
comportamentos que podem ser identificados como bullying que ocorrem numa
variedade de contextos. Este estudo identifica a incidência, características e demais
variáveis subjacentes à existência de bullying sénior entre os utentes institucionalizados
do Lar de São José - Estrutura Residencial Para Pessoas Idosas (ERPI) da Santa Casa da
Misericórdia de Montalegre. Recorremos à implementação de um protocolo de
observação participante, à heteroadministração de questionários a sessenta utentes, para
avaliar as suas experiências como vítimas, bullies ou espectadores e à realização de
entrevistas a atores sociais chave. Os resultados obtidos atestam a existência de bullying
sénior direto e indireto. Estes achados são de suma importância para a praxis e futura
pesquisa acerca das dinâmicas sociais envolvidas neste fenómeno, assim como para a
elaboração de programas de prevenção e estratégias de intervenção direcionados para o
bullying sénior.
Bullying, a term commonly used to describe acts of aggression that occur in the school context, differs from aggression in general in that it is a repetitive act, characterized by unequal levels of power between victim and aggressor. However, there are behaviors that can be identified as bullying that occur in a variety of contexts. This study identifies the incidence, characteristics and other variables underlying the existence of senior bullying among the institutionalized tenants of São José Retirement Home - Residential Structure For The Elderly (RSFE) of the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Montalegre. We resorted to the implementation of a participant observation protocol, the heteroadministration of questionnaires, of sixty tenants, to evaluate their experiences as victims, bullies or bystanders and interviews conducted with key stakeholders. The results attest the existence of direct and indirect senior bullying. These findings are of great importance for practice and future research regarding the social dynamics involved in this phenomenon, as well as for the development of prevention programs and intervention strategies directed for senior bullying.
