AIM
Employment status has consistently been associated with health-related quality of life. This study investigated the effect of age on the association between work status and health-related quality of life in Korean adults using a large, nationally representative sample.
METHODS
We used data from the Korean Health Panel, and ran a series of random effects panel models to test the relationship between quality of life as measured by the EuroQol five-dimension questionnaire and work status. The moderation effect of age on the relationship between quality of life and work status was also tested in the same model.
RESULTS
Overall, Korean adults who were employed reported a higher level of quality of life than those who were unemployed. Furthermore, the relationship between quality of life and work status was stronger for those who were aged ≥60 years compared with those who were not.
CONCLUSIONS
Employment status among older people was found to have a greater association on quality of life than among younger people. Thus, it is necessary to carry out further research for employment status of older people about the relationship with quality of life. Geriatr Gerontol Int 2018; 18: 1629-1633.
目的
就业状况一直与健康相关的生活质量有关。本研究使用一个大型的全国代表性样本，调查了年龄对韩国成年人工作状况与健康相关生活质量之间关系的影响。
方法
我们使用了韩国健康小组的数据，并运行了一系列随机效应面板模型，以测试生活质量（用欧洲五维健康量表衡量）与工作状况之间的关系。在同一模型中还测试了年龄对生活质量和工作状况之间关系的调节作用。
结果
总体而言，就业的韩国成年人报告的生活质量水平高于失业者。此外，与年龄<60 岁的人相比，年龄≥60 岁的人生活质量与工作状况之间的关系更强。
结论
与年轻人相比，老年人的就业状况与生活质量的关系更为密切。因此，有必要对老年人的就业状况与生活质量的关系进行进一步的研究。老年医学与老年病学国际 2018；18：1629-1633。
