Abstract

This investigation is based on the transmission of health meanings between parents and children. The main objective of this investigation is to identify and characterize the transmission of health perception from parents to children, as well as to compare this transmission in families with cases of type II diabetes mellitus and in families where the disease is not present. In the didactic analysis, the Actor Partner Interdependence Model was used. This investigation was carried out by 94 triads, consisting of the mother, father, and a child. We conclude that the prevalence of transmission of the perception of health varies according to the gender of the parents, where it was found that there is only a prevalence of transmission from Father to Son.
