A busca do bem-estar é o motor do desenvolvimento humano. É visando estar bem que o homem luta para atingir seus ideais. O desenvolvimento desta capacidade está diretamente ligada com as experiências mais precoces do sujeito em sua família. Sendo assim, este trabalho investigou em que medida a configuração familiar contribui para o bem-estar dos adolescentes. A amostra utilizada foi de 391 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, entre 12 e 17 anos, sendo 196 provenientes de famílias originais e 195 de famílias reconstituídas. Utilizou-se o instrumento Escala Goldberg de Bem-Estar (1978)-GHQ, subdividida em 12 itens. A maioria dos adolescentes (81%) apresentou um nível de bem-estar geral entre bom a muito bom, sendo que não houve diferença significativa entre adolescentes de famílias originais e reconstituídas.
The search for welfare is the motor to human development. It is the search for well-being that makes humankind struggle for its ideals. The development of this capacity is closely related to the early experiences that one has in his/her family. Thus, this study investigated to what extent the family configuration contributes to the adolescents well-being. The sample had 391 adolescents, of which 196 were from intact families and 195 from remarried families. Goldberg’s (1978) General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) was used, subdivided into 12 items. Results showed that most adolescents (81%) presented a general well-being level ranging from good to very good. There was no significant difference between adolescents from intact and remarried families.
