摘要

This study focuses on identifying the personal, social and economic factors associated with experience of insecurity, financial instability, lack of access to medical care and lack of social support among older adults in Brazil. Using data from the Brazilian Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSI-Brazil), panel and stacked logistic regressions were estimated, incorporating differential coefficients to assess potential changes between the two surveys. The main findings indicate that non-white individuals, those with a negative self-assessment of health, and residents of neglected environments have a higher odds ratio of experiencing feelings of insecurity, financial insecurity, and lack of access to medical care. Conversely, the marginal increase in age was inversely related to both types of insecurity and lack of medical care. Furthermore, social interaction with friends and relatives was identified as a protective factor against the four vulnerabilities studied.
