Abstract
This study classified assisted living (AL) residents by expectations for future physical, cognitive, and socioemotional health in later life. The authors analyzed cross-sectional data from 202 AL residents. Study participants completed the 12-item expectations regarding aging survey. A K-means cluster analysis identified three subgroups: "lower expectations" (n = 55), "higher expectations" (n = 70), and "expecting adaptiveness" (n = 77). Subgroups varied by select demographic, health, and relocation-related factors. Results suggest that, despite similarities in physical and cognitive functioning, AL residents reported different expectations for health. Socioemotional functioning may help explain observed discrepancies between current health and future health-related expectations.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
