Qualidade de vida, coesão e adaptabilidade em famílias beneficiárias do Programa Bolsa Família

Abstract

We evaluated the association between quality of life, family cohesion and sociodemographic factors of beneficiary families of the Bolsa-Família Program (PBF). This was an analytical, cross-sectional study with exploratory methodology. The sample was composed of 385 respondents. The dependent variable was the quality of life (WHOQOL-BREF), and the independent variables were sociodemographic characteristics, self-rated health, family cohesion and adaptability (FACES III). The best quality of life was associated with an age younger than or equal to 36 years (OR = 2.15), higher educational level (OR = 1.54), good/very good health (OR = 6.39), not having current health problem (OR = 5.68), no treatment (OR = 1.76), moderate (OR = 3.39) and high (OR = 3.66) family cohesion and moderate adaptability (OR = 2.23). Individuals from families with moderate and high family cohesion were more likely to have a better quality of life than those from families with low cohesion. The male volunteers were 3.54 times more likely to have a better quality of life. It was concluded that moderate and high levels of cohesion may impact positively to the quality of life of persons receiving the PBF, indicating that social programs should seek to strengthen these dynamics.

Seroepidemiology of Chagas disease in at-risk individuals in Caraíbas, a city with high endemicity in Bahia State, Brazil

“…The discrepancy between Mulungu do Morro/Catolândia and our study is probably due to the improvement in the quality of life of the population and the progress in prevention campaigns against triatomines. Indeed, the social programs implemented by the Brazilian government in the last 20 years have had a positive impact on the quality of life of the population ( 21 , 22 ). Despite this significant decrease, the high prevalence (4.42%) of CD in this study can be explained by the higher sensitivity and specificity of the recently used methods ( 23 , 24 ).…”

Qualidade de vida relacionada à disfunção do assoalho pélvico de gestantes dos sistemas público e privado

“…O domínio psicológico com maior pontuação entre as mulheres atendidas no serviço privado, pode ser explicado pelo fato destas possuírem melhor QV também nos aspectos socioeconômico, familiar e de forma geral, uma vez que todas essas dimensões corroboram para um melhor equilíbrio psicossocial. Este entendimento foi igualmente demonstrado em estudo realizado em Campinas-SP em que mulheres com maior escolaridade, sem problemas atuais de saúde e boa coesão familiar possuem melhor QV (ROSALINI MP, et al, 2019).…”

Correlação entre desvantagem vocal e qualidade de vida de cantores populares

“…Os cantores populares com melhor renda tiveram melhores médias nos escores do WHOQOL-bref. Do mesmo modo que em outras pesquisas (13,(22)(23)(24) , observa-se a necessidade de que profissionais e gestores de saúde pública se concentrem em ações voltadas às pessoas com renda mais baixa para melhorar sua qualidade de vida.…”
