Abstract

Population aging is a global reality that presents challenges to society. Issues such as functional autonomy, depression, and resilience stand out in promoting healthy aging. Functional autonomy, essential for independent daily activities, can be affected by depression, a common issue among the elderly, impairing motivation. Resilience, which is crucial for facing adversities, also influences well-being. The proposed study investigates the relationship among these factors in the elderly population, utilizing an interdisciplinary approach and quantitative methodology. The study's population comprises elderly individuals receiving care in Basic Health Units. Preliminary results indicate a good level of functional autonomy in the sample and associate depression with resilience. The research aims to promote effective interventions for quality of life and to comprehend the interconnection of these factors, thereby promoting healthy aging.
