Resumo: This study was conducted in a probabilistic sam- ple of 2,055 elderly in Greater Metropolitan Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais State, Brazil, to examine components of social network (conjugal status and visits by the children, other relatives, and friends) and social support (satisfaction with personal relations and having persons on whom to rely) associated with limitations in performing basic activities of daily living (ADL). Multivariate analysis used the Hurdle model. Performance of ADL showed independent and statistically significant associations with social network (fewer meetings with friends and not having children) and personal support (dissatisfaction/indifference towards personal relations). These associations remained after adjusting for social and demographic characteristics, health status, and other indicators of social relations. Our results emphasize the need for greater attention to social network and social support for elderly with functional limitations and those with weak social networks and social support.

El análisis multivariado se basó en el modelo Hurdle. La dificultad en la realización de las ABVDs tuvo asociaciones independientes y significativas con la red social (menos encuentros con amigos y no tener niños) y el apoyo social (insatisfacción/indiferencia con las relaciones personales). Estas asociaciones persistían después de los controles por características sociodemográficas,condición de salud y otros indicadores de relaciones sociales. Nuestros resultados sugieren la necesidad de una mayor atención para la red social y apoyo social a los ancianos con limitaciones funcionales y para aquellos con redes y apoyo social frágiles.Este trabalho foi conduzido em uma amostra probabilística de 2.055 idosos da Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brasil, com o objetivo de examinar componentes da rede social (situação conjugal, visita de filhos, outros parentes e amigos) e do apoio social (satisfação com as relações pessoais e existência de pessoas com quem contar) associados à limitação para realizar atividades básicas da vida diária(ABVDs). A análise multivariada foi baseada no modelo Hurdle. A performance na realização de ABVDs apresentou associações independentes e significantes com a rede social (menos encontros com amigos e não possuir filhos) e o apoio social (insatisfação/indiferença com as relações pessoais). Essas associações persistiram após ajustamentos por características sociodemográficas, condição de saúde e outros indicadores das relações sociais. Nossos resultados reforçam a necessidade de maior atenção para a rede social e apoio social aos idosos com limitações funcionais, e para idosos com redes sociais e apoio social frágeis.Reports in Public HealthCadernos de Saúde Pública2014-05-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersiontext/htmlapplication/pdfhttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5542Reports in Public Health; Vol. 30 No. 5 (2014): MayCadernos de Saúde Pública; v. 30 n. 5 (2014): Maio1678-44640102-311Xreponame:Cadernos de Saúde Públicainstname:Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)instacron:FIOCRUZenghttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5542/11484https://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/article/view/5542/11485Juliana Lustosa TorresRosângela Corrêa DiasFabiane Ribeiro FerreiraJames MacinkoMaria Fernanda Lima-Costainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2024-03-06T15:28:47Zoai:ojs.teste-cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br:article/5542Revistahttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csphttps://cadernos.ensp.fiocruz.br/ojs/index.php/csp/oaicadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br||cadernos@ensp.fiocruz.br1678-44640102-311Xopendoar:2024-03-06T13:06:21.803984Cadernos de Saúde Pública - Fundação Oswaldo Cruz (FIOCRUZ)true
