La presente investigación tuvo como objetivo describir la salud objetiva y psíquica del adulto mayor en función del género, la edad y el estado civil, en una muestra de 500 personas entre 65 y 81, años con una desviación estándar de 8.857 y una media de 65.59. Los resultados muestran diferencias significativas en la salud objetiva y la salud psíquica en función del género, siendo mayor en los hombres, comparado con las mujeres; no se encontraron diferencias significativas en función de la edad y el estado civil. Teniendo en cuenta los resultados obtenidos, es importante diseñar e implementar intervenciones que incluyan los cambios específicos de hombres y mujeres de forma integral, llevando a cabo continuos seguimientos que garanticen el mejoramiento de la condiciones biopsicosociales del adulto mayor.


The aim of this research project was to describe the objective and psychic health of older adults in relation to gender, age and marital status. A sample of 500 people between the ages of 65 and 81 with an average of 65.59 and a standard deviation of 8.857 was selected for this study. Results showed significant differences both in objective and mental health based on gender, being greater for men as compared to women. No significant differences were found in terms of age and marital status. These results led to the conclusion that it is important to design and implement intervention programs that take into account, in an integrated manner, the specific changes found both for men and women and also to carry out systematic follow-up procedures that guarantee the improvement of the bio-psycho-social conditions of older adults.
