Significados da Aposentadoria: Uma Revisão de Escopo

Autoria SCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

Resumo

A aposentadoria é um fenômeno central em nossa sociedade, sendo primordial conhecer os seus significados atuais. Este trabalho levantou e analisou os estudos referentes ao assunto, por meio de uma revisão de escopo de estudos empíricos com base nas diretrizes do PRISMA. A partir dos critérios de elegibilidade e das estratégias de busca, 3.904 resultados foram analisados, sendo selecionados 39 artigos científicos empíricos. As análises dos dados das publicações e seus resultados demonstraram uma ampla variedade de conceitos investigados e algumas tendências metodológicas, em geral com a abordagem qualitativa. Embora a maior parte dos estudos abordem o construto em duas dimensões (positiva e negativa), discute-se abordagens mais complexas, sendo apresentado um modelo de contendo cinco dimensões (Explorar novos horizontes, Ausência e busca de significado, Contribuir à sua maneira, Tempo para relaxar e Aquisição de direitos), que devem ser analisados considerando cinco grupos de influências (diferenças e recursos individuais e fatores contextuais, trabalhistas e situacionais). O estudo avança teoricamente, sendo necessários aprimoramentos futuros.
