Abstract

The present study investigated the link between the sizes of the Chinese community to the health of Chinese seniors in Canada. A secondary data analysis of survey data from a representative sample of 2,272 Chinese older adults aged 55 and over was conducted. Hierarchical regression analyses were performed to assess the effects of the size of Chinese communities in Chinese seniors' health. Chinese seniors residing in the community with a small Chinese population reported better physical and mental health than the Chinese seniors residing in communities with a larger Chinese population. The findings were contrary to expectations that health of Chinese seniors should be higher in cities with large Chinese communities. These findings raise new questions for future investigations into the dynamics and impact of ethnic community size, and the importance of studying intragroup differences within ethno-cultural groups to better understand health disparities in ethnic groups.

摘要

本研究调查了加拿大华人社区的规模与华人老年人健康之间的联系。对 2272 名 55 岁及以上的代表性华裔老年人的调查数据进行了二次数据分析。采用分层回归分析评估了华人社区规模对华人老年人健康的影响。与预期相反,与居住在华人人口较多社区的华人老年人相比,居住在华人人口较少社区的华人老年人报告称他们的身心健康状况更好。这些发现提出了新的问题,需要对族裔社区规模的动态和影响以及研究族裔群体内部的群体内差异以更好地理解族裔群体中的健康差异进行未来研究。
