This study aimed to explore the relationship of loneliness, perceived stress, and depressive symptoms among the Chinese rural empty nest elderly. The role of sense of coherence (SOC) as a moderating variable was investigated in a representative sample of older adults in Henan, China, from November 2016 to February 2017. Results indicated that perceived stress mediated the relationship between loneliness and depressive symptoms, and SOC acted as a moderator on this mediating model. The mediation effect of perceived stress was significant only when SOC was lower. The results emphasized the importance of perceived stress in older adults. SOC was a protective factor with regard to depressive symptoms, and improving SOC should be a focus of health promotion with the elderly.
本研究旨在探讨中国农村空巢老年人的孤独感、感知压力与抑郁症状之间的关系。2016年11月至2017年2月,在中国河南的一个具有代表性的老年人样本中,研究了连贯感(SOC)作为调节变量的作用。结果表明,感知压力介导了孤独感与抑郁症状之间的关系,且SOC在该中介模型中起调节作用。只有当SOC较低时,感知压力的中介效应才显著。研究结果强调了感知压力在老年人中的重要性。SOC是抑郁症状的一个保护因素,改善SOC应成为老年人健康促进的一个重点。
