“…One study involved elderly in urban São Paulo and evidenced the association between advanced age and greater dependence for ADLs among elderly older than 80, up to 36 times more than among other elderly (4) . Earlier research published in this journal highlights the importance of elaborating and putting in practice strategies to promote the health and quality of life of this population (7)(8) . The lack of studies on the functional capacity of elder elderly in Brazil and other developing countries aroused the researchers' interest to compare the findings of two doctoral dissertations (9)(10) and one undergraduate Nursing monograph (11) on the theme, carried out in three regions of Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brazil.…”

En esta línea, otros estudios, han demostrado como otros componentes del constructo RC, tales como el elevado nivel ocupacional logrado en la etapa laboral (Arber y Ginn, 1993;Séculi et al, 2001), la práctica de ejercicio físico (Inouye y Pedrazzani, 2007) o las relaciones sociales (Livingston et al, 2008), también correlacionan de forma directa con una calidad vital percibida de manera favorable en la tercera edad.…”

“…Relacionando este constructo con la autopercepción que los pacientes manifiestan acerca de su calidad de vida, Inouye y Pedrazzani (2007), llevaron a cabo un estudio exploratorio, encontrando que los niveles más altos de escolaridad y la participación frecuente en actividades físicas, se asociaban a una autovaloración más elevada del bienestar personal de la población mayor. No obstante, otras investigaciones con objetivos similares pero en las que se empleó únicamente muestras de sujetos con bajo nivel educacional, hallaron que la valoración de dicha CV, resultaba también elevada en cerca de la mitad de los casos estudiados (Zea Herrera et al, 2008).…”
