The effects of social activity, social resources, health, and functional status on the life satisfaction of black and white aged were examined, based on interviews with 330 residents of age-integrated and age-segregated public housing estates in Cleveland, Ohio. The results of multivariate analysis call into question previous conclusions that age-segregation is conducive to greater life satisfaction. However, the findings do lend support to previous research indicating that social integration has a greater degree of importance in determining the life satisfaction of black than of white aged.
基于对俄亥俄州克利夫兰市年龄融合型和年龄隔离型公共住房小区330名居民的访谈,研究了社会活动、社会资源、健康状况和功能状态对黑人和白人老年人生活满意度的影响。多变量分析结果对之前关于年龄隔离有利于提高生活满意度的结论提出了质疑。然而,研究结果确实支持了之前的研究,即社会融合在决定黑人老年人生活满意度方面比白人老年人更为重要。
