Resumen
TRUJILLO GARCIA, Sergio. Individual agency and life conditions. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2005, vol.4, n.2, pp.221-230. ISSN 1657-9267.
As a result of the project Interpretación desde la Psicología de la calidad de vida y sus dimensiones en adultos mayores de los municipios de Soacha y Sibaté (Cundinamarca, Colombia) [Interpretation from the psychology of the Quality of Life and its dimensions in old age adults from the Soacha and Sibaté municipalities (Cundinamarca, Colombia)] which had a theoretical model composed for three axels (epistemological, ecological and temporal), emerged some tensions which constitute the quality of life dimensions of the elderly. In the present article one of those tensions is discussed: the one shaped by the contradictions among the possibilities of the individual agency exercise and the precarious life conditions which had characterized the context of development of the old age participants.
Palabras clave : Quality of life; interpretation; tensions; individual and group agency; elderly.
