RIBEIRO, Pricila Cristina Correa. Psychology facing the challenges of population aging. Gerais, Rev. Interinst. Psicol. [online]. 2015, vol.8, n.spe, pp.269-283. ISSN 1983-8220.

The transition of morbimortality rates observed in the Brazilian population in the last decades imposes on researchers, professionals and managers within the public health the search for strategies for ensuring the health promotion and attention to the specificities of the older population. In this context, theoretical precepts and practices based on the psychology of aging can contribute to tackle the challenges in health care of the elderly. In this study we presented some of these contributions from psychology as well as some of the world policies that seek to guide strategic actions aimed at promoting active aging and preventing and treating chronic and degenerative conditions associated with increasing age.

Palabras clave : Elderly; Old age; Aging psychology.
