Abstract

We examined the association of resilience with measures of mental and physical health in a sample of older American Indians (AIs). A validated scale measuring resilience was administered to 185 noninstitutionalized AIs aged>=55 years. Unadjusted analyses revealed that higher levels of resilience were associated with lower levels of depressive symptomatology and chronic pain, and with higher levels of mental and physical health. Resilience remained significantly associated with depressive symptomatology after controlling for demographic and other health measures. Our findings suggest that resilience among older AIs has important implications for some aspects of mental and physical health.

美国老年印第安人心理和身体健康的恢复力的关系:土著老年人护理研究。

我们在老年美国印第安人(AIs)的样本中研究了弹性与心理和身体健康指标的关系。对185名年龄>=55岁的非机构人工智能患者实施了有效的心理恢复量表。未经调整的分析显示，较高水平的恢复力与较低水平的抑郁症状和慢性疼痛有关，与较高水平的精神和身体健康有关。在控制了人口统计和其他健康措施后，恢复力仍然与抑郁症状显著相关。我们的研究结果表明，老年人工智能的恢复能力对心理和身体健康的某些方面具有重要意义。
