The picture of four houses‟ analysis evidenced that the structure of the SR has as central elements: responsibility, arduous, stress, suffering and autonomy, as peripheral elements, ethical, financial necessity, double day journey, overload and initiative. The AFC revealed in the game of oppositions demonstrated in Factor 1 that the nurses who work in the day and night shifts simultaneously are in opposition the nurses that work during the day and have an employment bond, evidencing an opposition between the service shifts. In this way, has been learned from the first ones the following representations: stressful, autonomy, suffering, tiring, double journey and responsibility. To those last ones, the semantic universe shown was: difficulty, dedication, sacrifice and stressful.
