While in the elderly with good social interaction, a small number of elderly were not depressed, namely 2 people (11%), almost all elderly experienced mild depression, namely 16 people (84%) and a small number of elderly experienced severe depression, namely 1 person (5%) (p-value = 0.017) and there is a relationship between social interaction and the level of depression in the elderly.
