Objectives.
The aim of this paper is to estimate the prevalence of successful aging in the elderly in Western Mexico and to analyze its variability by age, sex, education, marital status, and pension.
Methods.
This study employs data from the Health, Wellbeing, and Aging Study (SABE) in Jalisco and Colima, Mexico.
Successful aging was operationalized in accordance with no important disease, no disability, physical functioning, cognitive functioning, and being actively.
There were a total of 3116 elderly.
Results.
12.6% of older adults were “successful” aging.
The old-old is a lower proportion of successful aging people; it ranges from 18.9% among people aged 60–69 years to 3.9% in the 80–89 years and up to 1% in people 90 and older.
There were also differences according to sex (P=.000), with a higher proportion of successful aging men (18.4% compared with 9.2% of women).
There were differences in educational level (P=.000); those higher with education were found to be more successful aging, and also there were differences in marital status for married people (P=.000).
Discussion.
A small number of older adults meet the criteria definition of successful aging, suggesting the need to analyze in depth the concept and the indicators.
