Resumo: | In this study we examine the association between the length of participation in the University for Senior Citizens (Rio Grande do Sul Federal University) and personality dimensions, quality of life and depression in elderly women. We used the convenience sampling method. One hundred and three elderly women who participated in the Senior Citizens University group were evaluated and responded to questionnairesinvolving sociodemographic conditions, aspects of personality, quality of life and depression. The data showed an association between the length of participation of over one year at the Senior Citizens University and lower intensity of depression as well as a better perception of quality of life in the physical, psychological and social domains. The outcome suggests that a length of participation in excess of one year at the Senior Citizens University acts as a possible protective factor against depression in the elderly. Furthermore, it helps with the perception of a better quality of life in the physical, psychological and social domains. |

O método amostral utilizado foi o de conveniência. Cento e três idosas que participavam do grupo da Universidade da Terceira Idade foram avaliadas e responderam a instrumentos sobre condições sociodemográficas, aspectos de personalidade, qualidade de vida e depressão. Os resultados mostraram uma associação entre tempo de participação superior a um ano na Universidade da Terceira Idade e menor intensidade de depressão, bem como melhor percepção de qualidade de vida nos domínios físico, psicológico e social. Os resultados sugerem que o tempo de participação superior a um ano na Universidade da Terceira Idade atua como um possível fator protetor contra a depressão em idosos e auxilia na percepção de uma melhor qualidade de vida nos domínios físico, psicológico e social.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2008-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7028Psychological Studies; Vol. 25 No. 4 (2008): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 25 Núm. 4 (2008): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 25 n. 4 (2008): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7028/4596Copyright (c) 2022 Tatiana Quarti IRIGARAY, Rodolfo Herberto SCHNEIDERhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessIRIGARAY, Tatiana Quarti SCHNEIDER, Rodolfo Herberto 2024-04-25T18:53:16Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7028Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-25T18:53:16Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false |
