The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing life satisfaction of Korean older adults living with family. Participants included 267 adults age 65 and older who met eligibility criteria. Analyses showed that the prediction model of the life satisfaction of older adults who are living with their family was significant (F=24.429, p<0.001). The value of the adjusted R(2) was 0.306, which corresponds to the explanatory power of 30.6%. The factor found to have the greatest influence on these adults' life satisfaction was depression (beta=0.090), monthly pocket money (beta=0.060), and age (beta=0.040). It is possible that older adults' life satisfaction increases when they are provided with nursing interventions and are able to effectively manage their health. Nursing interventions must strive to improve their self-esteem and address their depression.
本研究的目的是确定影响与家人同住的韩国老年人生活满意度的因素。参与者包括267名符合资格标准的65岁及以上成年人。分析表明，与家人同住的老年人生活满意度的预测模型具有显著性（F=24.429，p<0.001）。调整后的R(2)值为0.306，相当于解释力为30.6%。发现对这些成年人生活满意度影响最大的因素是抑郁（β=0.090）、每月零花钱（β=0.060）和年龄（β=0.040）。当老年人接受护理干预并能够有效管理自身健康时，他们的生活满意度有可能提高。护理干预必须努力提高他们的自尊并解决他们的抑郁问题。
