dc.descriptionThe main objective of this research is to determine the consequences of family abandonment in the emotional area of older adults in the Gerontological Center of Montalvo canton. A quantitative, descriptive and non-experimental methodology was used, with a cross-sectional design, to analyze the relationship between family abandonment and the emotional health of the participants. The study population consisted of older adults from the Gerontological Center of the Montalvo canton, from which a representative sample of 80 individuals was selected. Data were collected through questionnaires and psychological evaluation scales, such as the MOS social support questionnaire and the Yesavage geriatric depression scale, ensuring the validity and reliability of the results. The most relevant results indicate that family abandonment has a significant impact on the emotional health of older adults, evidenced by high levels of depression in those who feel abandoned by their families. In addition, it was found that a low perception of family support is strongly related to reduced emotional well-being. Likewise, this study highlights the importance of developing intervention strategies and public policies that address family neglect and promote the emotional well-being of older adults, contributing to improve their quality of life and providing a solid foundation for future research in the field of gerontology and mental health.es_ES

dc.description.abstractEl objetivo principal de esta investigación es determinar las consecuencias del abandono familiar en el área emocional de los adultos mayores del centro Gerontológico del cantón Montalvo. Se utilizó una metodología cuantitativa, descriptiva y no experimental, con un diseño transversal, para analizar la relación entre el abandono familiar y la salud emocional de los participantes. En cuanto a la población del estudio consistió en adultos mayores del centro Gerontológico del cantón Montalvo, de los cuales se seleccionó una muestra representativa de 80 individuos. Los datos se recopilaron mediante cuestionarios y escalas de evaluación psicológica, como el cuestionario MOS de apoyo social y la escala de depresión geriátrica de Yesavage, asegurando la validez y fiabilidad de los resultados. Dentro de los resultados más relevantes indican que el abandono familiar tiene un impacto significativo en la salud emocional de los adultos mayores, evidenciado por altos niveles de depresión en aquellos que se sienten abandonados por sus familias. Además, se encontró que una baja percepción de apoyo familiar se relaciona fuertemente con un bienestar emocional reducido. Asimismo, este estudio destaca la importancia de desarrollar estrategias de intervención y políticas públicas que aborden el abandono familiar y promuevan el bienestar emocional de los adultos mayores, contribuyendo a mejorar su calidad de vida y proporcionando una base sólida para futuras investigaciones en el campo de la gerontología y la salud mental.es_ES
