Abstract

This paper investigates predictors of life satisfaction and quality of life among severely disabled elderly adults. Markides and Martin's (1979) path analysis model was adapted specifically to elderly persons with severe disabilities. The study group comprised 97 patients discharged from three medical rehabilitation facilities in metropolitan Boston during 1984. The adapted model explained about 40% of the variance in quality of life among both men and women, with functional capacity being the most important predictor.

摘要

本文研究了重度残疾老年人生活满意度和生活质量的预测因素。马尔基德斯和马丁（1979年）的路径分析模型专门针对重度残疾老年人进行了调整。研究组由1984年从波士顿大都市的三家医疗康复机构出院的97名患者组成。调整后的模型解释了男性和女性生活质量差异的约40%，其中功能能力是最重要的预测因素。
