“…We acknowledge that there is not an age limit when considering prospective parenting and that parenthood can be achieved through different social, legal, and biological pathways. Nevertheless, we considered the limit of 45 years as a useful threshold for parenthood in the Portuguese context because: (i) the age limit for access to assisted reproduction techniques (ART) funded by the Portuguese National Health Service is 42 years old, with a legally established upper age limit of 50 years old, and (ii) in Portugal, candidates older than 45 years rarely adopt (Salvaterra & Veríssimo, 2008).…”

“…This study encompassed 535 participants using a non-probabilistic snowball sampling in a committed relationship aged between 18 and 45 years old. We considered the limit of 45 years as a useful threshold for parenthood in the Portuguese context because (i) the age limit for access to assisted reproduction techniques (ART) funded by the Portuguese National Health Service is 42 years old, with a legally established upper age limit of 50 years old; and (ii) in Portugal, people older than 45 years seldom present themselves as candidates to adopt [51]. To conduct the analysis, the sample was divided in three groups: one group consisted entirely of sexual minority people (this group were considered in the EFA to establish the new subscales of the CRS-PV).…”

“…Os motivos que levam as pessoas a procurarem pela adoção são inúmeros, tais como dificuldade de engravidar, desejo de ser pai/mãe, o sentimento altruísta de dar uma família para uma criança, ter uma companhia, entre outros. No entanto, pesquisas mostram que a infertilidade é um dos principais motivos para que os indivíduos se candidatem à adoção (Gondim, et al, 2008;Mariano & Rossetti-Ferreira, 2008;Salvaterra & Veríssimo, 2008;Schetinni, Amazonas, & Dias, 2006;Silva, Mesquita, & Carvalho, 2010;Vanalli & Santana, 2009). O tema adoção é permeado por dúvidas, mitos e preconceitos, que devem ser esclarecidos com o objetivo de minimizar pressuposições equivocadas, que dificultam o processo, como também promover reflexões sobre a realidade do ato de adotar.…”
