Abstract(s)
O objectivo deste estudo visa compreender o modo
como a experiência de viver sem-abrigo pode ser
promotora do empoderamento psicológico. Com base
numa metodologia qualitativa entrevistaram-se três
homens sem-abrigo com idades compreendidas entre
os 25 e os 56 anos. Os resultados sugerem que viver
como sem-abrigo pode promover uma maior
consciência crítica do ambiente sociopolítico no qual o
indivíduo está inserido, uma maior capacidade de
resolução de problemas, um sentido de competência
pessoal, bem como uma maior capacidade de acesso
aos recursos existentes. Mediante estes resultados é
discutido o modo como os significados da experiência
de viver sem-abrigo podem assumir dimensões
psicológicas que parecem ter sido pouco consideradas
anteriormente nos estudos realizados com pessoas
sem-abrigo.
ABSTRACT: The main goal of this study is to understand how the experience of homeless people can develop the psychological empowerment. Using a qualitative 534 research methodology, three homeless men with ages between 25 and 56 years old were interviewed. The results suggest that living as a homeless can promote a critical conscience of the sociopolitical environment in which the person lives, develop problems resolution capacities and a sense of self competence, as well as a capacity of access to existing resources. From these results, we discuss how the meanings of the experience of being homeless can involve dimensions that seem not to have been taken in consideration in the past.
