摘要：Aging is a development process that leads to physical, cognitive, behavioral and socioemotional changes. This paper aims to verify association between prefrontal and depressive symptoms in older adults, institutionalized or not. 206 people, from both sexes and aged above 60 years, took part in this study, being 109 of them non-institutionalized and community active and 97 residents in long-term care institutions. Participants answered to the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15), the Prefrontal Symptoms Inventory (PSI-16) and a sociodemographic questionnaire. Results revealed that residents in long-term care institutions group has exhibited higher age average (77 years; SD = 8,3); being the individuals mostly low schooled, single and sedentary. Also, those individuals presented more cognitive deficits (MMSE), subclinical symptoms of depression and higher score in ISP-16 compared to non-institutionalized group. In both groups, there were moderate positive correlations, statistically significant between ISP-16 and GDS-15 (p<0,001), and negative between schooling and ISP-16 (p<0.01). A multiple regression analysis confirmed the role of depression symptoms as a significative predictor of prefrontal symptoms variance and the role of schooling as a confusion variant. Despite the differences between habitation contexts, sociodemographic aspects and lifestyle, depressive symptoms are associated to prefrontal on a similar way in both groups, since emotional, behavioral and cognitive regulations are interconnected.
