INTRODUCTION
The study explored the relationship between subjective well-being and the quality of life among older adults. It highlights the importance of understanding how these factors are interconnected in the context of an aging population.
METHODS
Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the scores of general demographic characteristics, subjective wellbeing and quality of life. Simple correlation analysis and canonical correlation analysis were employed to analyze the relationship between subjective wellbeing and quality of life among older adults.
RESULTS
Data from 892 older adults were collected. Canonical correlation analysis revealed four pairs of canonical variables, with the first four pairs of canonical correlation coefficients all being statistically significant (0.695, 0.179, 0.147, 0.121) ( < 0.05), and the first pair of canonical variables explaining 93.03% of the information content. From the canonical loading coefficients, Vitality and mental health contributed the most to the quality of life (U1) canonical variable. The canonical variable V1, which corresponded to subjective wellbeing, was reflected by a combination of positive affect, negative affect, positive experience and negative experience. X1 (physical functioning), X2 (role-physical), X3 (bodily pain), X4 (general health), X5 (vitality), X6 (social functioning), X7 (role-emotional) and X8 (mental health) were positively correlated with Y1 (positive affect) and Y3 (positive experience), negatively correlated with Y2 (negative affect) and Y4 (negative experience). Cross-loadings revealed that physical functioning, bodily pain, general health, vitality, social functioning and mental health were the main factors reflecting the subjective wellbeing of older adults.
DISCUSSION
As quality of life among older adults was highly correlated with subjective wellbeing, appropriate measures should be taken to account for individual characteristics of older adults, and various factors should be integrated to improve their subjective wellbeing.
简介
本研究探讨了老年人主观幸福感与生活质量之间的关系。它强调了在人口老龄化背景下理解这些因素相互关联的重要性。
方法
使用描述性统计分析来分析一般人口统计学特征、主观幸福感和生活质量的得分。采用简单相关分析和典型相关分析来分析老年人主观幸福感与生活质量之间的关系。
结果
共收集了 892 名老年人的数据。典型相关分析显示有四对典型变量，前四对典型相关系数均具有统计学意义（0.695、0.179、0.147、0.121）（<0.05），第一对典型变量解释了 93.03%的信息内容。从典型负载系数来看，活力和心理健康对生活质量（U1）典型变量的贡献最大。对应于主观幸福感的典型变量 V1 由积极情绪、消极情绪、积极体验和消极体验的组合反映。X1（身体功能）、X2（角色-身体）、X3（身体疼痛）、X4（一般健康）、X5（活力）、X6（社会功能）、X7（角色-情感）和 X8（心理健康）与 Y1（积极情绪）和 Y3（积极体验）呈正相关，与 Y2（消极情绪）和 Y4（消极体验）呈负相关。交叉负载显示，身体功能、身体疼痛、一般健康、活力、社会功能和心理健康是反映老年人主观幸福感的主要因素。
讨论
由于老年人的生活质量与主观幸福感高度相关，因此应采取适当措施考虑老年人的个体特征，并整合各种因素以提高他们的主观幸福感。
