Abstract Elderly is a term used to refer to someone who has reached the age of 60 years and over. In modern society, the elderly population is increasing due to increased life expectancy. The elderly are at greater risk of experiencing various changes, both physical, mental and social. Apart from that, failure in the adjustment process can affect the ability of elderly people to carry out the activities they want to do. Therefore, resilience in the elderly needs to be addressed.
