Maternidade, Identidade no Trabalho, Não-maternidade não intencional, Carreira, Ativação de identidadeResumo
O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender como mulheres com não maternidade não intencional ativam a identidade maternal no trabalho. Foi realizada uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa e exploratória, utilizando os princípios da Grounded Theory na coleta e análise de dados. Os dados foram coletados por meio de entrevistas narrativas, usando-se um roteiro semiestruturado, com 44 mulheres que ativam a identidade maternal no trabalho. Os resultados evidenciaram três dimensões nas quais mulheres sem filhos ativam essa identidade: ativação projetiva, ativação vicária por mobilização e ativação imaginária. Este trabalho contribui para a literatura sobre carreiras femininas e (não) maternidade não intencional. Em termos teóricos, expande o entendimento a respeito do modo como mulheres lidam com a experiência da não maternidade não intencional ativando a identidade maternal no ambiente de trabalho.
