Introduction:
The vulnerability conditions of specific sectors of population have to deal with circumstances that jeopardize their self-concept and personal satisfaction with their lifestyle.
Objective:
Evaluate the satisfaction levels of women in conditions of vulnerability in Ciudad Guzman, Jalisco, according to the self-perception of their life situation.
Methodology:
Correlational descriptive study implemented in June 2016. 122 beneficiary women answered the ISP-RELEBA instrument. The global score of dissatisfaction was compared with the vulnerability conditions and sociodemographic variables with a Pearson’s Chi-squared test.
Results:
The vulnerable sectors with highest personal dissatisfaction levels are lonely women and widows, followed by pregnant and breastfeeding women, whose educational levels do not cover the basic school.
Conclusion:
There are few initiatives to attend to the psychological problems of those involved. It is suggested a psychological assistant and social integration program which stimulate the individual progress of vulnerable women.
