Synopsis "Coping in Older Adults (in English)"
Coping means confronting one situation face to face with another, and the way of doing so throughout life, particularly in conflictive or problematic situations, is known as coping strategies. These strategies depend on multiple situations, ranging from the personality of the individual, his or her educational level, the context in which such situations arise and the level of stress they may generate. The way of handling "risky" situations is very important given the impact and consequences that a poorly managed problem can have on physical, mental, social, family and occupational health. Specifically in the elderly, it is of great relevance since a proper management will allow a better quality of life and achieve the ultimate goal proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO), which is to achieve successful aging. Therefore, in the book we will address basic concepts of coping, coping in the elderly and present the results of research conducted by the authors, as full time Research Professors of the Faculty of Nursing at the Autonomous University of Coahuila, Torreon Unit.
