The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyse the Heidegger's daseinsanalysis. I focus in particular on a description of its roots and basics, that it originates from. Furthemore I refer to its philosophical fundament and its practical application to a psychotherapy, where it helps patients to grasp their lost life balance and orientation. I choose this topic because it is related to my bachelor's thesis, that is named "Sense of life and current human" . The daseinsanalysis also discusses the position of the human in the world and his being and searching of the life's meaning. In the contemporary global world full of disagreements and conflicts and the hectic pace of modern life, more and more people deal with the psychological or neurotic problems, more and more people search for their place in the world. Thanks to their inability to deal with these problems by their own strengths, they subsequently seek the help of psychologists. There the daseinsanalysis comes into play in the form of an individual or a group therapy. I reckon Edmund Husserl and Martin Heidegger, whose philosophical theories helped to create roots for the development of the daseinsanalysis, among the most influential representatives of the daseinsanalysis's development. Next I would like to mention Ludwig Binswanger, Medard Boss...

However, what is universal in human beings is the search for the meaning of death, and religiosity has a leading role in this process. In view of the above considerations, two studies were conducted in order to understand the relationship between religious beliefs, sense of life and attitudes towards death. The first study had the objective of validating an instrument of religious beliefs. To achieve that, we relied on a sample of 126 participants, respondents were 8,7% from the Christian Conscience s Meeting, 56,5% from the New Consciousness s Meeting and 34.8% were students of Science of Religions from UFPB and 51.6 % were female. To collect data we used the Scale of Religious Beliefs, proposed for this study, and a socio-demographic questionnaire. The result suggested its factorial validity distinguishing two factors called Occidental Belief and Oriental Belief. The precision of the scales was satisfactory (α> 0.70), indicating the relevance of this measure as an index to measure religious beliefs. The second study aimed to investigate the relationship between beliefs and the perception of sense in life, identify the associations between beliefs and attitudes towards death and, finally, to verify the relationship between perception of sense and attitudes towards death. The sample consisted of 121 participants, that 57% were female. Respondents were 5% from the Christian Conscience s Meeting, 61.1% from the New Consciousness s Meeting and 33.9% were students of Science of Religions from UFPB. For collecting data we used three scales: religious beliefs, Sense of Life Questionnaire and Profile of Attitudes Against Death, in addition we inserted an socio-demographic instrument. The results suggested that the sense of achievement was directly associated with the occidental belief, while the search for meaning is a correlates positively with oriental belief. The conception of finitude in occidental belief is understood by religious acceptance and escape, but in the oriental belief this result was the opposite. And the greater the sense of accomplishment the perception of death is accepted by a religious vision and less understood as fear and avoidance, and the greater the search for meaning greater the perception of death as fear. The results were discussed based on the theory of Viktor Frankl as well as from the fundamentals of the conceptions of science of religions. / A morte faz parte do ciclo vital do ser humano sendo interpretada por meio da cultura, dos valores e das crenças religiosas. Contudo, o que há de universal no ser humano seria a busca de sentido da morte, tendo a religiosidade um papel preponderante nesse processo. Tendo em vista as considerações supracitadas, foram realizados dois estudos buscando compreender a relação entre crenças religiosas, sentido de vida e as atitudes perante a morte. O primeiro estudo teve por objetivo validar um instrumento de crenças religiosas. Para tanto, contou-se com uma amostra de 126 participantes, que foram 8,7% do Encontro da Consciência Cristã, 56,5% do Encontro da Nova Consciência e 34,8% foram estudantes de Ciência das Religiões na UFPB e 51,6% do sexo feminino. Para a coleta de dados foi utilizado a Escala de Crenças Religiosas, proposta para este estudo, e um questionário sócio-demográfico. O resultado sugeriu a sua validade fatorial distinguindo dois fatores denominados de Crença Ocidental e Crença Oriental. A precisão das escalas foi satisfatória (α > 0,70) indicando a pertinência dessa medida como um índice para a aferição das crenças religiosas. Já o segundo estudo teve como objetivo averiguar as relações entre as crenças e a percepção de sentindo na vida, identificar as associações entre as crenças e as atitudes perante a morte e, por fim, verificar as relações entre percepção de sentido e atitudes perante a morte. A amostra foi composta por 121 participantes, sendo 57% do sexo feminino. Os entrevistados eram 5% do Encontro da Consciência Cristã, 61,1% do Encontro da Nova Consciência e 33,9% foram estudantes de Ciência das Religiões na UFPB. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados três escalas: Escala de crenças religiosas, Questionário de Sentido de Vida e o Perfil de Atitudes Perante a Morte, sendo acrescido um instrumento sócio-demográfico. Os resultados sugeriram que a realização de sentido se associou diretamente com a crença ocidental, enquanto que a busca de sentido se correlaciono positivamente com a crença oriental. A concepção da finitude na crença ocidental é compreendida através da aceitação religiosa e escape, na crença oriental esse resultado foi inverso. E quanto maior é a realização de sentido a percepção de morte é aceita em uma visão religiosa e menos compreendida como evitação e medo e quanto maior for a busca de sentido maior será a percepção de morte como medo. Os resultados foram discutidos à luz da teoria de Viktor Frankl bem como a partir dos fundamentos das concepções acerca das ciências das religiões.

With regard to the past, only the corporeality was associated with this variable and, finally, with respect to the future, both religious knowledge and religious behavior correlated with this factor. On the second specific goal, the results suggest that the presence of sense correlates with the knowledge, behavior and religious sentiment. Already the search for meaning is associated directly with the religious knowledge and religious corporeality. Finally, with respect to the ultimate goal, it was found that the variables: perception of the present and the Sub existence together explained 37% of variance to explain the presence of meaning while religious knowledge and suprapersonal Sub contribute together 34 % of the variance to explain the search for meaning. The results were discussed in light of Logotherapy and Existential Analysis of Viktor Frankl. / As crenças e práticas religiosas se constituem tanto como fontes de enfrentamento de situações estressantes, como vias para encontrar sentidos na vida na fase do envelhecimento humano.

The dissertation deals about the sense of life with senior people. In the theoretical part I am concerned with what means to be a senior in our society, and I pay attention to the problems of the crisis in the sense of life and of coping with the finality of human life. I also consider the meaning of spirituality and religious faith in the life of an aging man and I put questions concerning the sense and the goals of life in old age. In the practical part, each chapter is being enclosed with didactic impulses aimed at using them at seniors´ encounters.

The first part of my Diploma Thesis is dedicated to dying, it focuses on the perspective of the dying person. It also deals with the essential topics as hospice and palliative care. The second part tries to analyse ethically and evaluate in what sense is dying activity or inactivity and what possible moral attitudes may engage dying person in process of dying. At the beginning of the second part, there are defined the key words activity and inactivity. Basically, I'm trying to use this analysis to ethnically evaluate in which sense of dying is the dying person actually conducting and in which failures to act. Then follows simple typological analysis and evalauation based on inspiring typology of German philosopher Robert Spaemann. In the final part of the Thesis there are implied some connections between dying and the problem of sense of life. The most important is the answer of this question if needs of the sense is belong to everyone (included of dying people) in the same way. Also, how important is the influence in moral attitude of actual human after the sense of life.

A caracterização desse sentimento dar-se-ia pela fragilidade biológica, emocional e psicológica dos idosos. Dessa forma os idosos convivem com a passagem do tempo e a inexorável finitude de nossa existência, adquirindo uma percepção temporal mais sensível com o passar dos anos. Por outro lado, seria possível, diante desse quadro de finitude humana e aumento de fragilidades, permanecer feliz e encontrar sentido existencial, ou um motivo para ser feliz, na acepção de Frankl (1984)? Tal questionamento motivou a realização de um estudo qualitativo, baseado em histórias de vida, cujo objetivo foi analisar a percepção sobre o sentido da vida na velhice de educadoras idosas (aposentadas) residentes em cidades do interior da Bahia, maiores de 60 anos. Os dados foram coletados por meio de pesquisa qualitativa através de entrevistas narrativas abertas. A compreensão em maior profundidade oferecida pela entrevista qualitativa pode fornecer informação contextual valiosa para ajudar a explicar achados específicos (Bauer, 2003). Assim, foram feitas as seguintes perguntas disparadoras: O que é envelhecer para você? Como é estar aposentada? Fale-me sobre momentos felizes de sua vida. Fale sobre momentos difíceis que teve de enfrentar, e como você os superou. Coerentemente com a abordagem de história de vida (Oliveira, 2008), registrou-se fielmente, em áudio, a fala dos sujeitos, transcrita verbatim. As participantes do estudo são seis senhoras que foram educadoras e hoje estão aposentadas, residentes em cidades do interior da Bahia, pertencentes à classe média e praticantes do catolicismo com idades entre 60 e 92 anos. Cada participante foi entrevistada em sua própria residência. Os transcritos geraram categorias temáticas, discutidas com base na abordagem da psicologia cultural de base semiótica Zittoun (2004) do Sentido da Vida de Viktor Frankl (1984). Foram especialmente relevantes, para a interpretação dos dados, os seguintes aspectos: análise das trajetórias desenvolvimentais a partir do evento aposentadoria e viuvez, tomados como pontos de ruptura e transição; a vivência de valores sob os quais o ser humano encontra sentido em suas ações como criador: são os valores de criação; quando se entrega à experiência de algo que recebe do mundo: são os valores de vivência; e quando escolhe por atitudes afirmativas diante do sofrimento: são os valores de atitude. Essas análises permitiram a identificação de recursos materiais e simbólicos utilizados pelas participantes para enfrentarem a velhice, aposentadoria e viuvez. Nas conclusões, destaca-se a presença da vivência dos valores propostos por Frankl com a identificação de sentido de vida e inteireza existencial. / Old age is presented as a singular existential context, which justifies the expression used by Norbert Elias, "the loneliness of the dying", seen for many older people. The characterization of this feeling would give the biological fragility, emotional and psychological elderly. Thus, the elderly live with the passage of time and the inexorable finitude of our existence, acquiring a more sensitive time perception over the years. On the other hand, it would be possible, given that human finitude frame and increased fragility stay happy and find existential meaning, or a reason to be happy in the sense Frankl (1984). Such questioning led to performing a qualitative study, based on life stories, aimed to analyse the perception of the meaning of life in old age of older teachers (retired) residents in cities in the interior of Bahia, over 60 years. Data collected through qualitative research through open narrative interviews. The understanding in greater depth provided by qualitative interview can provide valuable contextual information to help explain specific findings (Bauer, 2003). Thus triggering the following questions asked. What is stale you? As is to be retired. Tell me about happy moments of your life. Talk about hard times faced and how you overcame them. In line with the life story approach (Oliveira, 2008), it faithfully recorded, audio, speech of subjects, transcribed verbatim. Study participants are six ladies who were educators and are now retired, living in cities in the interior of Bahia, belonging to the middle class and Catholicism practitioners aged between 60 and 92 years. Each participant interviewed at his own residence. Transcripts generated themes discussed based on the approach to cultural psychology semiotic base Zittoun (2004) Sense of Viktor Frankl Life (1984). They were particularly relevant to the interpretation of the data. The analysis of the developmental pathways from the retirement and widowhood event, taken as break and transition points. The experience of values in which human beings find meaning in their actions as creator: are the creation of value; when delivery to the experience of something that gets in the world: it is the experience of values; and when you choose to affirmative attitudes of suffering: it is the attitude values. These analyses allowed the identification of material and symbolic resources used by the participants to face old age, retirement and widowhood. The conclusions clearly the presence of living the values proposed by Frankl as the identification of meaning of life and existential integrity.

El objetivo del estudio fue describir la aceptación del duelo y la construcción de un nuevo sentido de vida en mujeres que tienen un hijo con discapacidad intelectual. Para tal fin, se desarrolló un estudio cualitativo de diseño fenomenológico. Se aplicó la técnica de la entrevista semiestructurada a diez madres cuidadoras primarias de hijos diagnosticados con discapacidad intelectual hace por lo menos cinco años. Los principales resultados muestran que, ante la llegada de un hijo con discapacidad, las madres atraviesan por un proceso de duelo en el cual renuncian al hijo ideal para aceptar al real con toda su unicidad, dándole un nuevo sentido a su vida. Se destaca que el amor y el deseo de brindarle la mejor calidad de vida a sus hijos, las impulsó a buscar y crear formas de inclusión, comprometiéndose en compartir sus ideales respecto a los valores y necesidades hallados en el transcurso de su experiencia con su hijo. Asimismo, las madres han desarrollado una mayor sensibilidad al dolor del otro, mostrando una conducta prosocial. Se concluye que luego de un periodo de dolor inevitable, han sido capaces de reestructurar su plan de vida, reemplazándolo por uno que se vincule con las necesidades reales de su hijo. / The objective of the study was to describe the acceptance of duel and the construction of a new sense of life in women who have a child with an intellectual disability. A phenomenological qualitative study was developed, ten semi-structured interviews were conducted with mothers living in Metropolitan Lima, these being the primary caregivers of children diagnosed with intellectual disability for at least five years. The main results show that when a child with a disability arrives, mothers go through a grieving process in which they renounce the dreamed child to accept the real one with all its uniqueness, giving a new meaning to their life. Here, it is highlighted that the love and desire to provide the best quality of life for their children, prompted them to seek and create forms of inclusion, committing to share their ideals regarding the values ​​and needs found during their experience with his son. Likewise, mothers have developed a greater sensitivity to the other's pain, showing prosocial behavior. It is concluded that after a period of inevitable pain, they have been able to restructure their life plan, replacing it with one that is linked to the real needs of their child. / Tesis
