ABSTRACT

O estudo investiga a perspectiva de adolescentes e jovens acerca de suas concepções de saúde e doença mental. Compreende-se que o processo de construção da saúde-doença é influenciado pela perspectiva individual, familiar e sociocultural. Participaram do estudo 1163 jovens de ambos os sexos, com idade média de 15,84 anos. Utilizou-se como instrumento um questionário autoaplicável, formulado em estudo anterior com jovens suíços de língua portuguesa. Investigaram-se as concepções de saúde e doença mental, dentre outros aspectos do tema. Nos resultados, observaram-se aspectos da visão holística e do modelo tradicional de saúde mental. A doença mental foi caracterizada como uma desordem emocional, revelando a influência das experiências internas e relacionais na concepção de adoecimento mental. Diferenças de nível socioeconômico foram observadas nas concepções de saúde e doença mental.
