ABSTRACT
 Objective: This study aims to identify the relationships among self-esteem, death anxiety and depression in older individuals according to certain variables. Material and Methods: This descriptive and relational screening study was conducted with 330 older individuals who lived in a city center and volunteered to participate in the study. Data were collected using a socio-demographic form, Rosenberg's Self- Esteem Scale, Templer's Death Anxiety Scale, and the Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form. Data were analyzed using the SPSS 22 statistical package program, and p<0.05 was accepted as statistically significant. Results: An analysis of older individuals' mean scores for self-esteem, death anxiety, and risk of depression in relation to their demographic characteristics indicated statistically significant differences (p<0.05). It was found that generally, these older individuals had a low depression risk (6.26±3.811), they had high self-esteem (1.03±0.426), and they experienced a medium level of death anxiety (7.89±2.857). A positive, medium-level relationship was found between self-esteem and depression, and a positive, low-level, but significant relationship was found between self-esteem and death anxiety (p<0.05). Conclusion: Income level and educational level are important factors influencing self-esteem, death anxiety, and depression risk. It was found that depression risk and death anxiety increased where there was a decrease in self-esteem in older individuals.

ÖZET
 Amaç: Bu çalışma, yaşlı bireylerde benlik saygısı, ölüm kaygısı ve depresyon arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek ve bu durumu etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Tanımlayıcı ve ilişki arayıcı türde yapılan bu araştırmayı, bir il merkezinde yaşamakta olan yaşlı bireyler arasından çalışmaya katılmaya gönüllü olan 330 birey oluşturmuştur. Veriler, tanımlayıcı bilgi formu, Rosenberg Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği, Templer Ölüm Kaygısı Ölçeği ve Geriatrik Depresyon Ölçeği Kısa Formu uygulanarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizi, SPSS 22 istatistik paket programında yapılmış; p<0,05 olan değerler anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Bulgular: Yaşlı bireylerin tanımlayıcı özelliklerine göre benlik saygısı, ölüm kaygısı ve depresyon riski puan ortalamaları değerlendirildiğinde; istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı farkların olduğu bulunmuştur (p<0,05). Yaşlı bireylerin depresyon riski taşımadıkları (6,26±3,811), yüksek benlik saygısına sahip oldukları (1,03±0,426) ve orta düzeyde ölüm kaygısı (7,89±2,857) yaşadıkları belirlenmiştir. Benlik saygısı ile depresyon arasında pozitif yönde orta düzeyde, ölüm kaygısı ile depresyon arasında ve benlik saygısı ile ölüm kaygısı arasında pozitif yönde düşük düzeyde anlamlı bir ilişki tespit edilmiştir (p<0,05). Sonuç: Gelir ve eğitim durumu benlik saygısı, ölüm kaygısı ve depresyon riski açısından önemli etkenlerdir. Yaşlı bireylerde benlik saygısının azaldıkça, depresyon riski ve ölüm kaygısının arttığı sonucuna varılmıştır.
