Abstract (English): Objective: To analyze the relationship between psychological well-being and self-efficacy for aging in working older women in Chetumal, Quintana Roo. Materials and methods: A descriptive-correlational study with a sample of 161 participants calculated through the G power program and collected through convenience sampling. A personal data sheet, the Ryff Psychological Well-being Scale, and the Self-efficacy for Aging Scale were applied. Information analysis was performed using SPSS through descriptive and inferential statistics such as the Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman tests. Results: A total of 161 working older women participated, with a mean age of 63.65 years (SD = 2.823 years). They had worked for a mean of 17.82 years (SD = 5.939), worked daily for around 8.06 hours (SD = 2.077), and had a monthly salary of 618.5 (SD = 86.57) dollars. A significant difference was found between the work environment and age (p = 0.019) and psychological well-being (p = 0.017), being higher in those who rated it as poor and fair, respectively. It was analyzed that higher psychological well-being was associated with greater self-efficacy for aging among the participants (r = .289, p<0.01). Conclusion: A relationship was found between psychological well-being and self-efficacy for aging in working older women. Additionally, it was detected that the work environment is poor due to age and affects psychological well-being, suggesting the need to work with this vulnerable group and with companies to develop strategies for proper insertion and adaptation of older adults in their work.

Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo-correlacional. Se calculó la muestra de 161 participantes a través del programa G Power ®, y recolectado a través de un muestreo a conveniencia.

Se halló diferencia significativa del clima laboral con la edad (p = 0.019) y el bienestar psicológico (p = 0.017), siendo mayor en aquellos que lo catalogan como malo y regular, respectivamente. Se encontró que, a mayor bienestar psicológico, mayor autoeficacia para envejecer presentan las participantes (r = .289, p<0.01). Conclusión: Se halló relación del bienestar psicológico y de la autoeficacia para envejecer en las adultas mayores trabajadores; aunado a que se detectó que el clima laboral es malo por la edad y afecta el bienestar psicológico, lo que sugiere trabajar con este grupo vulnerable y con las empresas, permitiendo generar estrategias para una correcta inserción y adaptación de la adulta mayor en su trabajo.
