BARRA, Marlene; FERNANDES, Natália e SANI, Ana Isabel. The subjective well-being of children in times of confinement. Rev. Port. de Educação [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.1, pp.380-404. Epub 27-Jul-2022. ISSN 0871-9187. https://doi.org/10.21814/rpe.23741.
The pandemic crisis motivated by COVID-19 dissemination has had a massive reach without borders, leading to feelings of vulnerability and insecurity, which cross social classes and generational groups. In the case of childhood, crisis situations are particularly impactful in the exercise of their basic rights. Aware of this reality, we consider essential to re-centre and to contribute with knowledge produced from children's voices, in order to characterize their subjective well-being in times of pandemic. In this paper we will present a reflection on childhood and the concept of subjective well-being, which will support the data analysis resulting from a research that had the aim of characterizing such subjective well-being. For this purpose, we applied an online survey - “Questionnaire on the well-being of children in a time of a pandemic” -, in order to access children's perceptions of their well-being regarding the dimensions of health, education, relationships with family and peers and satisfaction with life. We also developed several “Thematic Debates”, in collaboration with “Rádio Miúdos”, which were held with children. From the data analysis and discussion, it was possible to disseminate knowledge about their daily life, among children, in the family and in the community, and to understand their worries and hopes about health and family, their level of satisfaction with life and with relationships, in a pandemic situation.
