The purpose of this study was to construct Quality of Life Scale for Elderly (QOLS-E), which was to evaluate the older person's physical, social, and psychological states synthetically, and to find out which factors most influenced the person's psychological satisfaction. Two groups of people, 42 in total who were between 65 and 90 years old, participated in the study, with 25 living in the nursing home, and 17 in the hospital. Although the factor structure of QOLS-E was reasonable, the reliabilities were not very high, meaning further research was necessary to improve the scale. Multiple regression showed that Satisfaction with Activities of Daily Life was apt to be related to psychological satisfaction. Also, enjoying a hobby and positive relationships with institutional staff members appeared important for other facets of psychological satisfaction. As for subscales of psychological satisfaction, enjoying a hobby was significantly related to Acceptance of Own Life, and number of diseases to Mental Stability. Another subscales of QOLS-E, Satisfaction with Family Relationships, was also related to Acceptance of Own Life.
本研究的目的是构建老年人生活质量量表（QOLS-E），该量表旨在综合评估老年人的身体、社会和心理状态，并找出对其心理满意度影响最大的因素。两组共42名年龄在65岁至90岁之间的人参与了该研究，其中25人住在养老院，17人住在医院。尽管QOLS-E的因子结构合理，但其信度不是很高，这意味着需要进一步研究以完善该量表。多元回归分析表明，对日常生活活动的满意度往往与心理满意度相关。此外，拥有一项爱好以及与机构工作人员建立积极的关系对于心理满意度的其他方面似乎也很重要。至于心理满意度的子量表，拥有一项爱好与对自身生活的接受程度显著相关，而疾病数量与心理稳定性相关。QOLS-E的另一个子量表，即对家庭关系的满意度，也与对自身生活的接受程度相关。
