AB  - INTRODUCTION: Frailty associated to core dimensions of psychological well-being 
      (PwB) has appeared as a possible new frailty phenotype named psychological 
      frailty, implying a parallel to physical frailty (PF). Very little is known about 
      the associations between mental well-being, especially emotional, mood, and 
      self-perception dimensions, and the frailty syndrome in institutionalized older 
      populations. The present study aims to examine the interlink between the PF 
      phenotype and the core dimensions of PwB in Portuguese institution-dwelling older 
      women. METHODS: Cross-sectional data were collected. A total of 358 older women, 
      aged 75 years or more, were recruited from four nursing homes within the city of 
      Coimbra and asked to complete a sociodemographic and a general health assessment 
      survey. The main PwB dimensions were assessed in all participants: (i) global 
      cognitive status was assessed using The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) 
      Neuropsychology Test, (ii) self-perception was screened using the General 
      Self-Efficacy Scale (GSES) and Global Self-Esteem Scale, (iii) CES-D of 
      depression and Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) were used to screen mood states, and 
      (iv) subjective happiness, satisfaction with life, and attitudes to aging 
      psychometric rating scales were used to screen for emotional well-being. The 
      syndrome of PF was assessed using Fried's PF phenotype that includes weight loss, 
      weakness, slowness, exhaustion, and low physical activity (PA) level assessments. 
      RESULTS: Frail older women had a poor score in all PwB outcomes, except for 
      global self-esteem and satisfaction with life. A hierarchical regression model 
      analysis showed that global cognitive status and emotional well-being of 
      subjective happiness and attitude to aging showed a significant negative 
      relationship with PF in both unadjusted and adjusted models (explaining 34 and 
      40% of variance, respectively). CONCLUSION: Emotional well-being and global 
      cognitive performance are strongly associated with PF. Implementing active 
      lifestyle interventions to improve positive psychological outcomes using 
      geriatric assessments could assist in the older institutionalized patients' 
      physical and mental health care.
