ABSTRACT

This study discussed the differences in qualities of life between genders among aged adults in India’s urban regions. It focused on four areas such as physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. With data taken from 150 respondents who were analysed using independent samples t-tests with WHOQOL-BREF scale, no difference is seen in this study regarding the differences across all four domains. In physical health also, both genders have equal difficulties (t = -1.265, p = 0.208). Psychological health was not different (t = -0.645, p = 0.520). Social relations (t = 0.605, p = 0.546) and environmental factors (t = -1.159, p = 0.248) also reported similar results. This indicates that health care, as well as psychological health; social support, among the elderly in urban India, is comparable between men and women. This study throws up the high quality of life among this demographic, indicating balanced access to societal and infrastructural support systems.
