[Evaluation of autonomy and disability in elderly people in France, using O.E.C.D. questions and the number of illnesses (author's transl)].
Three approaches (traditional nosology, functional ability, socio-economic implications) to health status have been taken into account simultaneously in the development of different indicators from a sample of 2802 elderly persons aged 65 years and over: -using traditional nosology: the existence of different illnesses and total number of conditions for an individual, -on the functional level: the level of disability taking into account both physical and mental deficiencies, -on the socio-economic level: the basic level of dependency established according to the person's ability to perform activities of daily living. The techniques discussed will be generalized to larger populations allowing comparisons between the elderly living at home or in a private institution, and between socio-demographic groups.
