“…Las cifras de dependencia funcional fueron similares a las observadas en estudios realizados en comunas de la parte central del país -donde se encuentra el Bío Bío (3)-y en otros países, como Cuba (4).

Objective To investigate factors associated with tourism experiences, and the association between tourism experiences and subsequent self-rated health. Method Multilevel logistic regression models and four waves of panel data from a large nationally representative survey of older adults in China were employed. Results Those who had a tourism experience tended to be younger, men, urban residents, have a higher socioeconomic status (SES), and frequently participate in leisure activities and exercise. However, controlling for SES, women were more likely than men to have a tourism experience. Notably, tourism was negatively associated with poor self-rated health and the association was robust to adjustments for a wide range of confounders. Discussion The net beneficial impact of tourism on self-rated health may operate through several mechanisms such as improvements in tourists’ cognitive functioning, healthy lifestyles, self-esteen, family and social relations, and psychological and spirtual well-being. Tourism participation is an effective way to promote healthy aging.

Given the global investment problem of the population pyramid, the increase in older adults can be considered as an alternative to generate new proposals for tourism activities aimed at this segment, regarding their needs, interests and desires. In Mexico, according to INEGI (2015), the aging rate is 38% with an average age of 27 years. This alternative will have a social and economic impact on the sector, making the necessary proposals regarding the adaptability of some elements of the tourism system of the municipalities involved that make up the High Mountain Region. To do this, depending on the research objective, the methodology that was applied is mixed, consisting of an exploratory research (where various documentary sources and secondary sources were used), which served to contextualize and point out the object of study, A descriptive study was also carried out, through the application of 384 surveys that served as a preliminary tool to generate statistics and graphs that concentrate the main indicators related to the study objective. The contribution of this study is the inclusion of older adults with a social and economic impact in the region.
