Abstract

Purpose: Sleep quality is crucial for older adults, yet many experience poor sleep due to physical, mental, and social factors. The current study addresses the research gap on sleep quality among Korean American older adults in senior housing by examining relevant factors.

Method: Using data from 314 Korean American residents in Los Angeles senior housing, we conducted descriptive analysis and logistic regression models.

Results: Poor sleep was significantly associated with poor physical health (odds ratio [OR] = 4.89), low energy (OR = 7.92), severe pain (OR = 14.92), multiple chronic conditions (OR = 2.71), and poor mental health (OR = 5.82), including moderate to severe anxiety (OR = 4.71) and depression (OR = 5.11).

Conclusion: Findings emphasize the unique sleep needs of Korean American older adults in senior housing and provide insights to improve their well-being. The study also highlights the need for further research using longitudinal designs, broader samples, and comprehensive sleep measures.

了解居住在补贴老年住房的韩裔美国老年人睡眠质量的相关因素。

目的：睡眠质量对老年人至关重要，但由于身体、心理和社会因素，许多老年人睡眠不足。此次研究通过调查相关因素，填补了对居住在老年住宅的韩裔老人睡眠质量的研究空白。方法：利用洛杉矶老年住宅314名韩裔居民的数据，进行描述性分析和logistic回归模型。结果：睡眠质量差与身体健康状况差（优势比[OR] = 4.89）、精力不足（OR = 7.92）、剧烈疼痛（OR = 14.92）、多种慢性疾病（OR = 2.71）和精神健康状况差（OR = 5.82）显著相关，包括中重度焦虑（OR = 4.71）和抑郁（OR = 5.11）。结论：研究结果强调了韩裔美国老年人独特的睡眠需求，并为改善他们的健康状况提供了见解。该研究还强调了进一步研究的必要性，需要使用纵向设计、更广泛的样本和全面的睡眠测量方法。老年护理杂志，xx(x), xx-xx。
