Title

Abstract

This presentation aims to evaluate the psychological health concerns viz., worries, fears and anxieties and their resilience among 120 older men and women in the age group of 60-79 years. Worries and anxieties in the elderly were assessed by using an adapted version of Penn State Worry Questionnaire and Beck’s anxiety Inventory. Findings disclosed different patterns of resilience across gender, age, economic status etc. Elderly women with spiritual practices were highly resilient, compared to elderly men. Resilience is determined by age, gender and socioeconomic conditions of elderly. Inculcation of better mental hygiene practices to promote mental health are discussed.
