Abstract(s)
Compreender o sentido da vida e os diferentes sentidos que os indivĂduos atribuem a suas
vidas sĂŁo desafios que acompanham o ser humano desde os primĂłrdios, auxiliando-o a lidar com
perplexidades. Sentidos de vida podem ser considerados valores, uma vez que orientam a conduta
humana, passĂveis de aprendizado e compartilhamento. Este artigo teve como objetivo comparar a
estrutura de valores relativos a sentido de vida de gestores brasileiros e portugueses. Teve como
propĂłsito, aprofundar a compreensĂŁo de semelhanças e diferenças entre gestores de duas culturas â
brasileira e portuguesa â que possuem histĂłrias imbricadas, no entanto, com identidades prĂłprias.
De natureza exploratório-descritiva, a pesquisa coletou dados mediante a aplicação da escala de valores
de sentido de vida â VSV â a uma amostra de 187 gestores brasileiros e 71 portugueses, tendo os
mesmos sido tratados mediante escalonamento multidimensional. Os resultados evidenciaram a
existĂȘncia de uma Ășnica estrutura de valores de sentidos de vida para ambas as amostras, no entanto
hå diferenças de nuances, quanto à composição das categorias nela contempladas, que foram interpretadas
tendo em vista as peculiaridades de cada cultura. A estrutura encontrada caracterizou-se como radex,
composta de dois cĂrculos concĂȘntricos onde, no externo, situou-se o valor de sentido de vida Evolução
Espiritual, e no interno, uma estrutura polar bi-dimensional contemplando as demais categorias teoricamente
previstas: Solidariedade Humana versus Auto-realização, Relacionamento com Pessoas Próximas
versus Evolução Pessoal.
Understanding the meaning of life and the different meanings which individuals attribute to their lives are challenges which accompany the human being from their origins, helping them to deal with perplexities. Meanings of life can be regarded as values, once they orient the human beingâs conduct, amenable to learning and sharing. This article was aimed at comparing the structure of values related to the meaning of life of Brazilian and Portuguese managers and to improve the comprehension of the similarities and differences between managers of two cultures â Brazilian and Portuguese â which have intertwined histories although with their own identity. Descriptive-Explanatory in nature, the research collected data through the application of scales of meaning-of-life values â VSV â to a sample of 187 Brazilian and 71 Portuguese managers, dealt with through multidimensional scaling. The results showed the existence of a single structure of meaning-of-life values for both samples, although with some subtle differences, with respect to the composition of the categories contemplated, which were interpreted based on the particularities of each culture. The structure found was made up of a radex composed of two concentric circles, where in the external it was found the meaningof- life value Spiritual Evolution, and in the internal a bi-dimensional polar structure contemplating the other categories theoretically forecasted: Human Solidarity versus Self-fulfilment, Relationship with Close People versus Personal Evolution.
