Considerando uma amostra de 21 indivíduos (13 mulheres) e (8 homens). Tendo em conta os critérios de inclusão que foram terem mais de 65 anos e não existir presença de declinio cognitivo. Todos os elementos da amostra estão institucionalizados ou frequentam centros de dia (17 individuos em ERPI e 4 em centros de dia/casa própria. Para realizar a recolha de dados foram administrados dos testes, o o Mini-Exame de Estado Mental (MEEM, Folstein, et al., 1975) e a Escala sobre a perceção da sexualidade em indivíduos com mais de 65 anos (Miguel & Costa, 2017).
