Resumen

Objetivo: el objetivo de este estudio es identificar el perfil de apego de una muestra de ancianos de la Estrategia Salud de la Familia y verificar la asociación con los niveles séricos de oxitocina.
Método: se realizó un estudio transversal, descriptivo y analítico con pacientes ancianos asistidos por la Estrategia Salud de la Familia en Porto Alegre / RS. Se investigaron variables sociodemográficas, oxitocina y estilos de apego. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Cuestionario del Programa General de Envejecimiento Cerebral - PENCE para datos sociodemográficos; Cuestionario de escala de relación: RSQ para estilos de apego. La oxitocina se obtuvo a través del suero y se midió mediante el ensayo inmunoabsorbente ligado a enzimas - técnica ELISA.
Resultados: se investigaron 108 ancianos, con una prevalencia femenina (73,1%) y una edad media de 71,8 años. Se observó una correlación positiva entre la oxitocina y el apego seguro (p <0,05) y (r = 0,195). Los resultados también mostraron una diferencia estadísticamente significativa en los estilos de apego ansioso y temeroso, entre géneros.
Conclusión: los hallazgos de este estudio refuerzan el importante papel de la oxitocina como molécula que modula el funcionamiento social, reforzando la idea de que este neuropéptido se presenta como un vínculo potencial entre la neurofisiología y la formación de un vínculo de apego seguro. Nuestros datos también sugieren que el género puede presentarse como un aspecto influyente en la formación del apego, ampliando aún más la discusión sobre la neutralidad, propuesta por el modelo clásico de la teoría del apego.
