Abstrakt     The research objective was to study the predictive potential of the relationship between personal values, depression, and perception of quality of life in 80 older rehabilitation clients, aged 65 years and more with average age 74,4 years, suffering from serious injury or stroke and referred to geriatric rehabilitation unit of State Rehabilitation Institute in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Controlled for age, gender, disability and comorbidity index (CMI) were used correlational, multiple regression, and multivariate analysis of variables, assessed by Pogačnik's Lestvico osebnih vrednot (Personal Values Scale), Brink's Geriatric Depression Scale, and WHOQOL - BREF. Results revealed the preference of values of security, affiliation and traditional ethics, reflecting hierarchical change only due to age, not to gender, disability or comorbidity. Depression was not related to personal values, which, inversely, had no significant impact on quality of life perception, being assessed as good. Quality of life perception was negatively associated with functional disability and psychological unsatisfaction, and positively with social relationships and envi,ronmental involvement. Depression was moderate, situationally caused and the only predictor of quality of life perception. Results provide support for the conclusion that efforts invested in establishment and maintenence of adequate life conditions of older rehabilitation patients, enhancing and supporting their feelings of personal strength, competence and independence may serve better in management of their depression and quality of life perception than direct counselling interventions focused on changing their values and attitudes.
