This study examined the relationships between and among the variables of loneliness, social support, depression, and cognitive functioning in adults over 60, living in senior housing in a metropolitan area. Other variables, namely, life-satisfaction and ability to perform activities of daily living, were also measured. Although the research hypotheses were not supported, relationships between subjects' health status, life satisfaction, and self-assessment of health were significant. Assessment of these variables by community and advanced practice nurses who work with community elderly, to effect positive client outcomes, is presented within the context of Roy's adaptation model.
本研究调查了居住在大都市地区老年公寓的60岁以上成年人的孤独感、社会支持、抑郁和认知功能等变量之间的关系。还测量了其他变量,即生活满意度和日常生活活动能力。尽管研究假设未得到支持,但受试者的健康状况、生活满意度和健康自我评估之间的关系是显著的。本文在罗伊适应模式的背景下,介绍了社区护士和高级执业护士对这些变量的评估,这些护士与社区老年人合作,以实现积极的客户结果。
