- Relation between the SOC model and depressive symptoms in the elderly Nathalya Cruz Pricila Ribeiro Psicología elderly Selection depression optimization compensation The theoretical model known as Baltes' Selection, Optimization and Compensation (SOC) (1990), presents strategies for loss regulation and facing normative and non-normative changes. Objective: To analyze the relation between the use of SOC strategies with the depressive symptoms of the elderly when stress events occur. Method: Non-probabilistic sample, with individuals aged 60 and over, participating in activities of groups for the elderly. The instruments were self-applicable and the collection was made in groups, starting with a meeting to present the objectives of the research and scheduling, for a later moment, for the participants to respond to the research instruments. The application of the instruments was divided in two moments. Result: It was observed that the use of SOC works as an effect modifier in the relation between stressors and depression, being that the chances of the elderly with low use of SOC resources to present depressive symptoms were 2.46 times bigger than in elderly that present high use of these resources. The modifying effect of SOC resources on the relationship between stress and depression in the elderly reinforces the relevance of stimulating intervention and prevention programs in mental health, and studies have shown that the insertion of these strategies can help promote well-being, decrease depressive symptoms, improve the ability to cope with diseases and self-image. Conclusion: These results reinforce the relevance of the insertion of these strategies in studies and interventions on the theme, since their use can help in the promotion of well-being and confrontation of diseases. 2024 artículo científico 0034-9690 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28482289008 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/284/28482289008/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/284/28482289008/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/284/28482289008/28482289008.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/284/28482289008/movil 10.30849/ripijp.v58i1.1746 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=284 Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology application/pdf Sociedad Interamericana de Psicología Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology (Puerto Rico) Num.1 Vol.58
