Abstract

Magistrsko delo raziskuje pogled starejših na partnerske odnose v pozni odraslosti. V teoretičnem delu se osredotoča na življenjsko obdobje po 65. letu starosti in ga povezuje z vseživljenjskim razvojem človeka. Opisuje pomen socialnih odnosov in družbenih vlog za življenje posameznika ter predstavlja teorijo navezanosti. Poudarja tudi raznolikost partnerskih odnosov v pozni odraslosti ter značilne spremembe, ki se v tem obdobju pojavljajo. Povzema ugotovitve nekaterih tujih študij, ki prav tako preučujejo izkušnje starejših ljudi v zvezi s partnerskimi odnosi. V empiričnem delu so predstavljeni rezultati kvalitativne raziskave, v okviru katere je bilo izvedenih devet delno strukturiranih intervjujev z osebami, starimi nad 65 let. Ključna ugotovitev raziskave poudarja, da kakovost partnerskih odnosov v pozni odraslosti bistveno vpliva na kvaliteto življenja in splošno zadovoljstvo posameznika. Partner ali partnerka lahko predstavlja ključen vir podpore pri soočanju s številnimi izzivi in spremembami, ki zaznamujejo to življenjsko obdobje. Pokaže se, da ima vsak posameznik edinstven pogled na partnerstvo in ljubezen, ki se skozi življenje spreminja ter razvija. V primeru dolgoletnega nezadovoljstva v odnosu se pogosto kažejo neprijetni občutki, brezup in prepuščenost usodi. Raziskava nakazuje, da lahko tudi samske osebe dosežejo visoko zadovoljstvo v pozni odraslosti, če elemente kakovostnega partnerskega odnosa nadomestijo z drugimi socialnimi odnosi in viri podpore. Raziskava je bila izvedena na slovenskem območju, a se v mnogih ugotovitvah sklada s podobnimi študijami iz tujine. Nudi dodaten vpogled v razumevanje osebnega življenja ljudi po 65. letu starosti in prispeva k poznavanju dinamike partnerskih odnosov ter specifičnih izzivov, ki se pojavljajo v obdobju pozne odraslosti.

Secondary title: Partnership relationships through the eyes of older people
Secondary abstract: The master's thesis explores the perspective of older individuals on late-life romantic relationships. The theoretical part focuses on life after the age of 65 in connection to the lifelong development of individuals. It describes the significance of social relationships and societal roles in an individual's life and introduces the attachment theory. It also highlights the diversity of late-life romantic relationships and some of the changes that occur during this life stage. It summarizes findings from foreign studies that also investigate the experiences of older individuals in relation to romantic relationships. In the empirical part, the results of a qualitative study are presented, involving nine partially structured interviews with individuals aged 65 and above. The central outcome of the study emphasizes that the quality of late-life romantic relationships significantly influences an individual's quality of life and overall satisfaction. A partner can serve as a crucial source of support in facing the numerous challenges and changes that mark this life stage. It becomes evident that each individual has a unique perspective on partnership and love, which evolves and changes throughout life. In cases of prolonged dissatisfaction in a relationship, individuals often experience unpleasant emotions, hopelessness, and resignation to fate. The research also suggests that single individuals can achieve high levels of satisfaction in late adulthood if they replace elements of a quality romantic relationship with other social relationships and sources of support. The study was conducted in the Slovenian region, but it aligns with many findings from similar foreign studies. It provides additional insights into the understanding of personal lives of individuals aged 65 and above and contributes to our knowledge of the dynamics of romantic relationships and specific challenges that arise in late adulthood.
