The development of psychosocial interventions for older adults is a priority, especially in the decade of healthy aging. However, implementing an intervention requires a sustainable design tailored to the population and context in which it will be implemented. Therefore, we present an analytical model that seeks to identify how a reminiscence-based intervention for older adults is assembled, as well as to identify potential improvements for said intervention.
