Avós Guardiões: Uma Revisão Sistemática de Literatura do Período de 2004 a 2014

Abstract

RESUMO Os avós guardiões são responsáveis pelo cuidado e criação integral dos netos. Foi realizada uma revisão sistemática de literatura nas bases de dados PsycINFO (APA), Scielo e Lillacs com o objetivo de analisar artigos científicos sobre os avós guardiões publicados no período dos últimos dez anos (2004/2014).

Constatou-se que os artigos indexados na base Lillacs são predominantemente descritivos e os indexados na PsycINFO (APA) são, na sua maioria, voltados para a discussão de propostas de intervenção junto às famílias dos avós guardiões e seus netos.
