Frequency of daily living activities in older adults and their relationship with sociodemographic characteristics: A survey-based study

The results support the validity and reliability of the DAF. Older adults spend more time on personal care or household care activities, and less time on social activities, taking care of their health, or caring for others. The time they dedicate to these activities is associated with the sociodemographic profile of older adults, where there is an important weight of gender and age, and where a greater social capital of older adults helps them maintain a more stimulating life.
