In this article, we explore the subjective well-being of empty nesters who lived in rural eastern China ( = 967). The Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness is used to measure subjective well-being. The results indicate that Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness is appropriate for empty nesters in rural China due to its reliability and validity. Generally, male empty nesters report greater subjective well-being scores than females. Negative factors include low levels of education, being a widow or widower, or being unmarried. It is argued that the empty nesters' incapability to access adequate social service and home care leads to their poor subjective well-being.
本文探讨了居住在中国东部农村的空巢老人的主观幸福感（ = 967）。采用纽芬兰纪念大学幸福量表来衡量主观幸福感。结果表明，由于纽芬兰纪念大学幸福量表具有可靠性和有效性，因此适用于中国农村的空巢老人。一般来说，男性空巢老人的主观幸福感得分高于女性。负面因素包括教育水平低、丧偶或未婚。有人认为，空巢老人无法获得足够的社会服务和家庭护理，导致他们的主观幸福感较差。
