Con el análisis se buscó probar y determinar qué variables se agrupan en el caso de este grupo etario, para determinar dimensiones que, por un lado, resuman la información y, por otro, conformen grupos internamente homogéneos y con la suficiente heterogeneidad entre sí. Se analizaron 196 notas escritas entre 2004 y 2015 en ocho departamentos de Uruguay por población de 65 y más años de edad. Se detectaron inicialmente tres grandes grupos de individuos, claramente definidos por la técnica.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: The purpose of this article is to look into the suicidal notes in old age through a quantitative perspective. At the same time, with this age group, we tried to prove and determine which variables got together to later establish dimensions that will, on the one hand, summarize the data supplied and, on the other hand, shape groups that are intrinsically homogeneous but also significantly different amongst them. 196 notes, written by 65-or-more-year-olds between 2004-2015 in 8 different provinces of Uruguay, have been analyzed. Three distinct groups of individuals were detected, clearly defined by this technique.]]></p></abstract>
