METHODS: This cross-sectional study evaluated 654 older people treated at BHUs in the municipality of Maringá, state of Paraná, in Brazil. A sociodemographic questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), and the Rosemberg Self-esteem Scale were used as instruments. The data analysis was performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, the Spearman’s rank correlation, the Chi-squared test and the Binary Logistic Regression. RESULTS: The results showed a significant association between self-esteem (p < 0.05) and self-perceived health, which is related to going to BHUs, history of falls and near-falls, and the level of physical activity. The logistic regression showed that the older patients with no history of near-falls are more likely to have good self-esteem as well as very active older adults. Having high self-esteem was significantly correlated with the variables related to the practice of low-intensity and moderate physical activities. CONCLUSION: It was concluded that health conditions, especially the history of near-falls and physical activity level are factors associated with a higher self-esteem. In addition, the performance of low-intensity and moderate activities is associated with good self-esteem. 2019 artículo científico 2447-2115 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=739780745004 pt http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7397 Geriatrics, Gerontology and Aging application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Geriatria e Gerontologia Geriatrics, Gerontology and Aging (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.13 |
