El proposito de este estudio fue evaluar las propiedades psicometricas de confiabilidad y validez del Cuestionario de Calidad de Vida (WHOQOL-OLD) en adultos mayores del sur del estado de Sonora (Mexico). Se encuesto a 794 adultos mayores de entre 60 y 98 anos, mujeres y hombres, a quienes se les aplico, de manera individual, una hoja de datos sociodemograficos, el WHOQOL-OLD en espanol, la Escala de Depresion Geriatrica de Yesavage y la Escala de Bienestar Subjetivo de Lawton. En el citado cuestionario se evaluo validez divergente y convergente respecto a depresion y bienestar subjetivo, respectivamente; asi como su validez discriminante segun el sexo, grupo de edad, nivel educativo, estatus de salud y presencia o ausencia significativas de sintomas depresivos, validez factorial y consistencia interna de sus dimensiones y del total de los reactivos. El cuestionario mostro validez divergente respecto a la depresion, validez convergente en relacion al bienestar subjetivo, validez discriminante segun la edad, nivel educativo, estatus de salud y presencia significativa o no de sintomas depresivos. En el analisis factorial del instrumento se obtuvieron los seis factores que se mencionan en la literatura y que explican la varianza total. El citado cuestionario, en su version en espanol, es un instrumento confiable y valido para adultos mayores de la mencionada zona.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
