    Currently, emotional well-being and community participation have gained significant importance, as population aging demands a deep understanding of these factors as essential components of quality of life. This research aimed to analyze the influence of intrinsic motivation on the social cohesion of older adults in the El Rosario parish of the Pelileo canton, taking into account the experiences and challenges they face in their daily lives. The study was conducted using a qualitative and descriptive approach through bibliographic and field research, applying semi-structured interviews to 16 participants. This allowed for an understanding of their perceptions and experiences. It was determined that they find motivation in activities such as animal care, agriculture, crafts, and participation in community spaces, as these allow them to be more useful, active, and emotionally satisfied. Challenges affecting their intrinsic motivation were also evident, such as health problems, loneliness, and limited social participation. On the other hand, factors like communication, support networks, and social interaction strengthen social bonds, a sense of belonging, and integration within the community. Furthermore, barriers hindering social cohesion were identified, such as isolation, physical limitations, and a lack of inclusive spaces, which reduce opportunities for social interaction and participation. In this regard, it is worth noting that these are fundamental elements for improving the overall well-being of older adults, as they promote their autonomy and strengthen interpersonal relationships.
