Com o objetivo geral de comparar a qualidade de vida e rede de suporte social
entre idosos institucionalizados e não institucionalizados, foi estudada uma amostra de
60 sujeitos, 41 do sexo feminino e 19 do sexo masculino, com uma média de idades de
76 anos (DP=3.32). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram diferenças ao nível da qualidade
de vida na dimensão intimidade entre os dois grupos de idosos, assim como ao nível da
rede de suporte social e frequência de contactos com essas pessoas. Para além disso,
existem diferenças entre os dois grupos de idosos em função do estado civil, habilitações
literárias e tempo de institucionalização e percebem-se diferenças no tamanho da rede
como variável preditora da qualidade de vida. Os resultados obtidos estiveram, no geral,
de acordo com o esperado e foram discutidos com base na literatura, tendo em
consideração as suas implicações para a prevenção e intervenção nesta problemática.

The results showed differences in the quality of life in the dimension of intimacy between the two groups of elderly, social support network and frequency of contact with these people. Furthermore, there are differences between the two elderly groups in marital status, qualifications and time of institutionalization and are perceived differences in the size of the network as predictor of quality of life. The results were, in general, according to expected and were discussed based on the literature, taking into account their implications for prevention and intervention in this problem.
