Resumo: This research was aimed to understand the relationship among the availability, utilization of services and the quality of life of a group of elderly people. The adopted methodology was a mixed-method approach with a convergent or data triangulation design. The sample consisted of 106 individuals over 60 years old, residing in the Eastern region of the province of Mendoza. Data collection involved semi-structured interviews, the WHOQoL questionnaire to assess quality of life, and Ad Hoc instrument of Cognitive Maps to evaluate availability and utilization of services. A secondary data source was the Quality of Life Index developed by CONICET. Among the most important results, it was found that the utilization of services predicts self-perceived quality of life better than other variables reported in previous research, such as gender, age, or health status. The types of services that contribute the most to the quality of life of the individuals are commercial and physical-recreational services, as confirmed by the participants. Lastly, it is worth noting that physical-recreational services are mostly provided by the state or third-party organizations, which facilitate access for the individuals.

La metodología adoptada fue de tipo mixta con diseño convergente o de triangulación de datos. La muestra estuvo conformada por 106 personas mayores de 60 años, residentes en la zona Este de la provincia de Mendoza. Para la recolección de datos se aplicó una entrevista semidirigida, el cuestionario WHOQoL para evaluar calidad de vida, un instrumento ad hoc de Mapas cognitivos, para evaluar disponibilidad y utilización de servicios y como dato secundario se utilizó un Índice de Calidad de Vida elaborado desde CONICET. Entre los resultados, destaca el hecho, según se constató, de que la utilización de servicios predice mejor la calidad de vida autopercibida que otras variables reportadas en investigaciones anteriores, como el género, la edad o la situación de salud. Por otra parte, los tipos de servicios que más colaboran con la calidad de vida son los comerciales y los físico-recreativos. Estos últimos son en su mayoría de origen estatal o de organizaciones del tercer sector, lo que facilita el acceso.A investigação prosseguiu o objetivo de conhecer a relação entre a disponibilidade e utilização de serviços e a qualidade de vida de um grupo de idosos. A metodologia adotada foi do tipo mista com desenho convergente ou de triangulação de dados. A amostra foi composta por 106 pessoas com mais de 60 anos, residentes na zona leste da província de Mendoza. Para coleta de dados foi aplicada entrevista semidirigida, questionário WHOQoL para avaliação de qualidade de vida, instrumento ad hoc de Mapas Cognitivos, para avaliação de disponibilidade e utilização de serviços e como dados secundários foi utilizado um Índice de Qualidade de Vida elaborado pelo CONICET . Entre os resultados, destaca-se, como foi constatado, que a utilização de serviços prediz melhor a autopercepção da qualidade de vida do que outras variáveis ​​relatadas em pesquisas anteriores, como sexo, idade ou situação de saúde. Por outro lado, os tipos de serviços que mais colaboram com a qualidade de vida são os comerciais e os físico-recreativos. Estas últimas são em sua maioria de origem estatal ou organizações do terceiro setor, o que facilita o acesso.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2023-10-06info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/713810.1590/SciELOPreprints.7138spahttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/7138/13409Copyright (c) 2023 Ana Victoria Marquez Terrazahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTerraza, Ana Victoria Marquezreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO)instacron:SCI2023-10-06T19:41:24Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/7138Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2023-10-06T19:41:24SciELO Preprints - Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO)false
