The purpose of this correlational study was to identify predictors of psychological well-being in nursing home elders. Predictors considered were two dimensions of personal control, physical health, functional health, socioeconomic status, length of stay in the nursing home, and interaction variables. The nonrandom sample consisted of 302 cognitively intact nursing home elders with poor to excellent self-rated physical health. Instruments used included the Life Satisfaction Index A, Affect Balance Scale, Desired Control Measure, The Index of Activities of Daily Living, and The Two Factor Index of Social Position. Regression analysis demonstrated that dimensions of personal control and self-rated physical health explained 33% (p less than .001) of the variance of psychological well-being. Findings suggested predictor variables to guide the promotion and maintenance of psychological well-being in the subjects of this sample.
这项相关性研究的目的是确定养老院老年人心理幸福感的预测因素。所考虑的预测因素包括个人控制的两个维度、身体健康、功能健康、社会经济地位、在养老院的居住时长以及互动变量。非随机样本由302名认知完好、自评身体健康状况从差到优的养老院老年人组成。使用的工具包括生活满意度指数A、情感平衡量表、期望控制量表、日常生活活动指数以及社会地位双因素指数。回归分析表明，个人控制维度和自评身体健康状况解释了心理幸福感变异的33%（p小于0.001）。研究结果提出了预测变量，以指导促进和维持该样本中受试者的心理幸福感。
