This study was to investigate the differences between young older adults with and without vision impairment on neuropsychological and psychiatric outcomes following falls during the past year and to identify predictors of cognitive decline or mental distress.
A secondary analysis of 668 young older Chinese adults aged 65 ∼ 79 years old with a history of falls was conducted from the cross-sectional survey data in the 2018 wave of the Chinese Longitudinal Health Longevity Survey (CLHLS).
Participants with vision impairment scored significantly higher on anxiety and depression and lower on cognitive function and SWB than those without vision impairment. And vision impairment was a significant predictor of adverse outcomes for all four neuropsychological and psychiatric measures.
Neurocognitive deficits, psychological problems, and decreased self-sufficiency are quite common among community-dwelling older adults with visual impairment who have a history of falls within a year.
本研究旨在探讨过去一年中经历跌倒的年轻老年人群体中,视力受损者与无视力受损者在神经心理学和精神科结局方面的差异,并确定认知能力下降或精神困扰的预测因素。
本研究对来自中国纵向健康长寿调查(CLHLS)2018 年波次的 668 名年龄在 65 至 79 岁之间、有跌倒史的中国年轻老年人的横断面调查数据进行了二次分析。
与无视力障碍者相比,有视力障碍者在焦虑和抑郁方面的得分显著更高,而在认知功能和幸福感方面的得分则显著更低。并且,视力障碍是所有四项神经心理学和精神科测量结果不良的显著预测因素。
在一年内有跌倒史的、有视力障碍的社区居住老年人群体中,神经认知功能缺陷、心理问题和自我效能感下降较为常见。
