Abstract

Purpose. This study aims to elucidate the gender gaps in the strategies for maintaining the social participation and interaction of older adults with people in a local community. Methods. The subjects were 130 older adults aged 65 years or older and independently living in their homes in Saitama, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. The authors conducted an anonymous questionnaire survey on paper and performed multiple regression analysis for men and women separately using the Lubben Social Network Scale-6 (LSNS-6) as the dependent variable. Results. Among the independent variables used for the analysis, those that significantly influenced LSNS-6 in men were social activities related to the daily life satisfaction of the elderly (SARDS). The independent variables that significantly influenced LSNS-6 in women were SARDS, sense of coherence-13 (SOC-13), and the number of family members living with the subjects. Discussion. Health promotion is not associated with interaction with people in men compared with women.

老年人与当地社区居民保持社会参与和互动战略中的性别差距
研究目的本研究旨在阐明老年人与当地社区居民保持社会参与和互动的策略中存在的性别差距。研究方法研究对象为日本埼玉县埼玉市的 130 名 65 岁或以上、在家中独立生活的老年人。作者进行了匿名纸质问卷调查,并以 Lubben Social Network Scale-6 (LSNS-6) 为因变量,分别对男性和女性进行了多元回归分析。分析结果在用于分析的自变量中,对男性 LSNS-6 有显著影响的是与老年人日常生活满意度相关的社会活动(SARDS)。对女性 LSNS-6 有明显影响的自变量是 SARDS、连贯感-13(SOC-13)和与受试者同住的家庭成员数量。讨论与女性相比,男性的健康促进与人际交往无关。
