In order to design patient-centered art making interventions for health and well-being, investigators need to understand the population of interest regarding their relationship to engagement in art making activities. This study, therefore, aimed to examine older adults' characteristics that were associated with engagement in art making activities, and to provide practical examples of how to use the identified characteristics. We conducted correlation analyses to evaluate such associations, using cross-sectional survey data from the 2014 Health and Retirement Study (n=731). Female sex, higher education, personality traits, positive attitude toward the arts, and a larger social network size were positively associated with engagement in art making activities (p<.05). Males and those with lower education could be targeted, while the type of art making activity could be tailored based on personality traits for patient-centered art making interventions. Future studies can use this information to empirically study art making interventions for older adults.
为了设计以患者为中心的促进健康和幸福的艺术创作干预措施，研究人员需要了解目标人群与参与艺术创作活动之间的关系。因此，本研究旨在探讨与参与艺术创作活动相关的老年人特征，并提供如何利用所确定特征的实际示例。我们使用来自2014年健康与退休研究（n = 731）的横断面调查数据进行相关性分析，以评估此类关联。女性、高等教育、人格特质、对艺术的积极态度以及更大的社交网络规模与参与艺术创作活动呈正相关（p <.05）。可以针对男性和受教育程度较低的人群，同时可以根据人格特质来定制艺术创作活动类型，以实施以患者为中心的艺术创作干预措施。未来的研究可以利用这些信息对老年人的艺术创作干预措施进行实证研究。
