Abstract
Background: The adaptation of older people to nursing homes may
be problematic. Scales to assess the degree of adaptation are required.
Aim: To adapt and evaluate the psychometric characteristics of the Scale of
Adaptation of the Older Adults to their Residence (EAPAR) in the Chilean
population. Material and Methods: EAPAR and self-esteem scales were
applied to 106 people aged 79 ± 7 years (57% women) living in nursing
homes. Reliability was measured using Cronbach’s alpha. Results: The
instrument was adequately understood by the Chilean participants. In the
content validity, the structure of the scale appears homogeneous and with
an acceptable statistical significance. Conclusions: EAPAR is a reliable and
valid instrument to be used by health professionals
