HERNANDEZ VERGEL, Viviana; PRADA NUNEZ, Raúl e HERNANDEZ SUAREZ, César Augusto. Bienestar subjetivo entre adultos mayores institucionalizados en la ciudad de Cúcuta, Colombia. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2018, vol.14, n.2, pp.243-262. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2018.0002.04.
This article reports an investigation about the degree of well-being in a randomly selected group of institutionalized older adults in Cúcuta, Colombia. The PERMA profile of Butler and Kern (2016) was adapted to Spanish and used to measure positive emotions, commitment, relationships, meaning, and achievements. Results show a medium level of self-reported well-being. Age was a major factor in the perception of the well-being of institutionalized older adults, but disability, regardless of grade, was not. The link with the world of labour also has a significant impact on their perception of integral well-being. The test also established a high and significant correlation between all dimensions of the model and the perception of health.
