O presente trabalho destaca a relação entre a percepção de esforço, a actividade física e a qualidade de vida numa amostra de 14 mulheres seniores espanholas. Relativamente ao Back Scratch Test existe uma correlação positiva e significativa entre o esforço realizado (METs) e a percepção de esforço (RPE) medida através da Escala de Borg 6-20. Adicionalmente, existe uma relação entre a qualidade de vida relacionada com a saúde e a Escala de Borg, verificando-se uma relação negativa entre os 30-s do Chair Stand Test e o Papel Físico do SF-36. De igual modo, verifica-se uma relação negativa e significativa entre a Escala Visual Analógica (VAS) e a Escala de Borg 0-10 em relação ao Chair Stand Test 30-s. De forma similar, existe uma relação negativa e significativa entre o VAS e a Escala de Borg 6-20, bem como com o Teste 8-ft-up-and-go. O resultado mais importante desta investigação é que a RPE durante a realização de exercícios funcionais pode influenciar decisivamente a percepção de qualidade de vida em adultos seniores.
