Abstract

Background: The elderly population is projected to continue increasing, reaching an estimated 2 billion by 2050. A 2023 meta-analysis study reported a prevalence of depression among the elderly at 35.1%. Effective preventive measures, routine screening, and timely interventions are critically needed. This study aimed to identify the relationship between the level of religiosity and family support with the level of depression among elderly individuals in Cilember Village. Methods :  A quantitative approach with a correlational design was employed. The total sampling technique was used, involving 37 respondents. The instruments utilized included the Spiritual Well-Being Scale (SWBS) to assess religiosity, a family support questionnaire, and the Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS-15) to evaluate depression levels. Results:  The findings revealed that the majority of elderly participants had a low level of religiosity (48.6%) and moderate family support (54.1%). Additionally, 37.8% of the elderly experienced severe depression. Data analysis using the Chi-Square test showed a significant relationship between religiosity and depression level (p = 0.047), as well as between family support and depression level (p = 0.048). Conclusions:  There is a significant association between religiosity and family support with depression levels among the elderly, with both factors serving as protective elements for the mental health of older adults.
