to analyze the relationship of general, physical, and psychological violence with depressive symptoms and cognition in the elderly.
quantitative, cross-sectional study, carried out with 323 elders from the Brazilian northeast. Data collection used a sociodemographic instrument; the Conflict Tactics Scales Form R; the Geriatric Depression Scale; and the Mini-Mental State Examination. The analysis employed descriptive and inferential statistics.
as violence increases, so do the depressive symptoms; the opposite was true when comparing violence with cognitive involvement. There is a correlation between physical and psychological violence and depressive symptoms; more depressive elders are from 1.96 to 3.00 times more likely to be the victims of psychological and physical violence, respectively.
general, physical, and psychological violence is associated with depressive symptoms; those with less cognitive alterations are more vulnerable to abuse. Elders with depressive symptoms are more likely to suffer psychological and physically violence.
分析老年人普遍存在的身体和心理暴力与抑郁症状和认知之间的关系。
这是一项在巴西东北部进行的定量、横断面研究,共有 323 名老年人参与。数据收集使用了社会人口学工具、冲突策略量表形式 R、老年抑郁量表和简易精神状态检查。分析采用描述性和推断性统计方法。
随着暴力程度的增加,抑郁症状也随之增加;而在比较暴力与认知参与时则相反。身体和心理暴力与抑郁症状之间存在相关性;更抑郁的老年人成为心理和身体暴力受害者的可能性分别增加了 1.96 到 3.00 倍。
普遍存在的身体和心理暴力与抑郁症状相关;认知改变较少的老年人更容易受到虐待。有抑郁症状的老年人更有可能遭受心理和身体暴力。
