Objective: To verify, among elderly participants of the University of the Third Age (UnATI) of PUC Goiás, Goiania, Brazil, whether quality of life was higher or lower among veteran or first-year participants of the UnATI, and to evaluate if there was a statistically significant difference between the quality of life of men and women or first-years and veterans. Method: An observational case-control study with a quantitative approach was performed with 100 elderly individuals from the UnATI. Fifty first-years and fifty veterans were involved. Two questionnaires were applied, one with sociodemographic data and the other using the World Health Organization Quality of Life -Old (WHOQOL-OLD) scale, which evaluates the quality of life of the elderly. Variance analysis (ANOVA) and multivariate variance analysis (MANOVA) were performed, with p≤0.05 applied to the relevant statistics. Result: The vast majority of the sample were women (90%), aged between 60 and 86 years old (average of 68.37±5.28 years old). The overall quality of life score was 3.68±0.50 (first-years) and 3.87±0.55 (veterans). There was a statistically significant difference in the areas: sensory functioning (veterans =4.28±0.65 and firstyears =3.95±0.80) ( p=0.025) and past, present and future activity (veterans =4.0±0.72 and first-years =3.59±0.79) ( p=0.008). Multivariate variance analysis identified that the overall quality of life scores of both men (veterans =3.15 and first-years =4.21) and women (veterans =3.78 and first-years =3.86), were highest after they became veteran students ( p=0.007). Conclusion: Veterans had a higher quality of life than first-years. The continuing education provided by UnATI has a positive impact on the quality of life of the elderly.

“…A partir das entrevistas que constituíram o corpus "Envelhecimento" é possível verificar que as mulheres com idade entre 30 e 39 anos enfatizam que para "se manter" e favorecer a saúde, o indivíduo deve conservar bons hábitos alimentares, praticar atividades físicas e adotar a medicina preventiva. Tais dados parecem convergir com os resultados da avaliação multidimensional dos determinantes do envelhecimento ativo em idosos de um município de Santa Catarina (Vicente & Santos, 2013). Nesse sentido, a prevalência de saúde ou doença durante o envelhecimento dependeria dos hábitos adotados desde antes da velhice.…”

The participants were 40 women aged from 30 to 60 years old. Half of them (n=20) have used non-invasive rejuvenation practices while the other half (n=20) have used invasive and/or minimal invasive rejuvenation practices. A semidirective and unstructured interview was used to investigate the social representations of aging and rejuvenation. Furthermore, a structured questionnaire was used and included objective questions related to participant's demographics. The data analysis involved descriptive and relational statistics. The results indicate that the social representations of aging and rejuvenation showed distinct elements, associated with each type of rejuvenation practice adopted. The elements such as social pressure and to be hard on yourself appears related to the type of rejuvenation practice adopted by the women. Lastly, the aging was meant as a subjective condition.Keywords: Social Representation; Aging; Rejuvenation. Representaciones sociales del envejecimiento y del rejuvenecimiento para mujeres que adoptan prácticas de rejuvenecimiento ResumenEsta investigación tuvo el objetivo de comprender las representaciones sociales del envejecimiento y del rejuvenecimiento para mujeres que adoptan prácticas de rejuvenecimiento. Participaron 40 mujeres entre 30 y 60 años, siendo que 20 de las mismas utilizaron prácticas no invasivas y otras 20 hicieron uso de prácticas invasivas y mínimamente invasivas. Se utilizó la entrevista semidirectiva y no estructurada para la investigación de las representaciones sociales del envejecimiento y del rejuvenecimiento, y un cuestionario conteniendo preguntas de caracterización de las participantes. Para el análisis de datos se empleó la estadística descriptiva y relacional. Los resultados indicaron que las representaciones sociales del envejecimiento y del rejuvenecimiento presentan elementos distintos, de acuerdo con el tipo de práctica adoptada. La presión social y la exigencia sobre las mujeres surgen como elementos representacionales que justifican la adopción de prácticas de rejuvenecimiento. Por fin, el envejecimiento es presentado como una condición subjetiva.
