Resumo: The aging process has been the main subject of several studies, due to the increasing number of elderly in the world population, the expenses from chronic diseases or the ever-growing number of active elderly. Fact is, the elderly are often highlighted in surveys, showing aspects not formerly questioned. To discuss functional independency in aging seems commonplace, but the interaction between psychological aspects as self-efficacy, self-esteem and resilience, has been subject to studies. The intent of this paper is to present concepts referring to the functional capacity in the elderly and correlate those to the psychological aspects, mostly to the concept of resilience. Finally, we propose the concept of physical-functional resilience.

O fato é que os idosos estão ganhando espaço em pesquisas, mostrando facetas não questionadas anteriormente. Falar sobre a independência funcional na velhice parece ser corriqueiro, mas a interação entre aspectos psicológicos como autoeficácia, autoestima e resiliência tem sido tema de pesquisas. O objetivo deste texto é apresentar conceitos referentes à capacidade funcional em idosos e correlacioná-los aos aspectos psicológicos, principalmente ao conceito de resiliência. Ao final, propomos o conceito de resiliência físico-funcional.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2010-10-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/392210.23925/2176-901X.2010v13iEspecial7p%pRevista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 13 (2010): Número Especial 7 - Resiliência e Velhice2176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/3922/2562Couto, Fernanda Bueno D`Elbouxinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2019-11-29T00:29:48Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3922Revistahttp://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairosPRIhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/kairos/oaikairos@pucsp.br||flalodo@terra.com.br|| contato@openjournalsolutions.com.br2176-901X1516-2567opendoar:2019-11-29T00:29:48Revista Kairós (Online) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)false
