Aimed to test an association model for Successful Aging (SA), with mindfulness and self-compassion factors as predictor variables, and components of subjective well-being (SWB) as mediating variables in older adults.
This cross-sectional, descriptive study was conducted using the Google Forms platform and printed questionnaires, applied in an interview format with older adult participants from the Brazilian states of Bahia and Sergipe. A total of 233 older adults participated, residing in the states of Bahia (34.8%) and Sergipe (65.2%), with a mean age of 69.2 years (SD = 7.33).
The multiple linear regression (MLR) results indicated that SA was associated with mindfulness, the positive factor of self-compassion, and positive affect (PA). Subsequently, structural equation modeling (SEM) suggested that both mindfulness and self-compassion, which positively correlated with each other, were significantly and positively associated with PA, while PA was positively and significantly associated with SA.
Mindfulness and the positive facet of self-compassion, mediated by PA, were indirectly associated with SA, while PA was significantly and more strongly associated with SA. Finally, mindfulness and the positive facet of self-compassion were positively correlated with each other.
旨在测试一个成功老龄化（SA）的关联模型，该模型将正念和自我同情因素作为预测变量，将主观幸福感（SWB）的组成部分作为老年人的中介变量。
本横断面描述性研究使用谷歌表单平台和打印问卷进行，以访谈形式应用于来自巴西巴伊亚州和塞尔希培州的老年参与者。共有233名老年人参与，居住在巴伊亚州（34.8%）和塞尔希培州（65.2%），平均年龄为69.2岁（标准差 = 7.33）。
多元线性回归（MLR）结果表明，成功老龄化与正念、自我同情的积极因素以及积极情绪（PA）相关。随后，结构方程模型（SEM）表明，相互正相关的正念和自我同情均与积极情绪显著正相关，而积极情绪与成功老龄化显著正相关。
由积极情绪介导的正念和自我同情的积极方面与成功老龄化间接相关，而积极情绪与成功老龄化显著且更强相关。最后，正念和自我同情的积极方面相互正相关。
