Positive aging-How does it work? : Contribution of resilience to the prevention of depressive disorders in old age

CONCLUSION: Age-specific aspects of resilience can be specifically used for the prevention of depressive disorders in old age. They enable a framework to establish resource-promoting and activating interventions, to counteract the deficit perspective on ageing. At the same time, there are clear limits to individual prevention and resilience. The responsibility cannot be seen solely for each individual but above all social structures and framework conditions must enable successful implementation in old age.PMID:38634908 | DOI:10.1007/s00391-024-02296-2
