It is important to get the quality of life or well being to the elderly who reached the fourth age - 80 years or more - with autonomy and independence. However, as people grow old, reliance on family care for the elderly becomes more frequent. Objective: This study aimed to assess family dynamics, quality of life and lifestyle of elderly at the fourth age and of their family caregivers. Method: Descriptive study involving 100 elderly and their caregivers. Data were collected by applying the Family Caregiver Profile Questionnaire, Family APGAR, Whoqol-Old, Whoqol-Bref and Nahas Lifestyle. Results: The elderly sample comprised mostly women, with mean age of 84 years, mostly of all with hypertension and heart diseases. Caregivers (67%) lived in the elderly’s household, were mostly women, daughters and granddaughters; 20% were elderly caregivers partners from both sexes. Although caregivers have reported good health and quality of life at a good level, their lifestyle was regular. According to the elderly, families have high dysfunctionality, although they had better levels of quality life in some areas and facets. Conclusion: Based on the research it was possible to identify the needs of redirecting to the public and social policies, in favor of a supporting network to the aged population and their family.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the reliability and validity of indicators of physical activity and sedentariness obtained by means of a telephone-based surveillance system. METHODS: Reliability and validity studies were carried out in two random subsamples (n=110 and n=111, respectively) obtained from the total sample (N=2,024) of adults (≥18 years) studied by the system in the municipality of São Paulo in 2005. Studied indicators included frequency of “sufficiently active during leisure time,” “inactive in four domains of physical activity (leisure, work, transportation, and housework),” and “habit of watching television for long periods.” Reliability was assessed by comparing results of the original telephone interview with those of another identical interview repeated after seven to 15 days. Validity was assessed by comparing the results of the telephone interview with those of three 24-hour recalls (reference method) carried out in the week following the original interview. RESULTS: Frequencies obtained for of the three evaluated indicators were either identical or very similar for the first and second telephone interviews. Kappa coefficients ranged from 0.53 to 0.80, indicating good reliability for all indicators. In relation to the reference method, all indicators showed 80% or higher specificity, and sensitivity values were 69.7% for “watching television for long periods,” 59.1% for “inactive in four domains,” and 50% for “sufficiently active during leisure.” CONCLUSIONS: The indicators of physical activity and sedentariness included in the system seem reliable and sufficiently accurate. If kept operational in coming years, this system may provide Brazil with a useful instrument for evaluating public policies aimed at promoting physical activity and controlling non-transmissible chronic diseases associated with sedentariness.
