Abstract

This research examined factors predicting the financial well-being of older people and how financial well-being was associated with life satisfaction among older adults in Vietnam using a national survey. We found that income, assets, health status, and demographic factors were significantly associated with older adults’ financial well-being. The results also revealed that, for older adults, subjective financial well-being was positively associated with life satisfaction, but among the objective financial well-being indicators only the number of assets was directly related to life satisfaction. On the other hand, income might be indirectly related to life satisfaction through subjective financial well-being. The results were consistent across various measures of subjective financial well-being.

越南老年人主观经济幸福感和生活满意度的实证研究

这项研究通过一项全国性调查，考察了预测越南老年人经济幸福感的因素，以及经济幸福感与越南老年人生活满意度的关系。我们发现，收入、资产、健康状况和人口统计因素与老年人的经济状况显著相关。研究结果还表明，对于老年人来说，主观经济幸福感与生活满意度呈正相关，但在客观经济幸福感指标中，只有资产数量与生活满意度直接相关。另一方面，收入可能通过主观经济幸福感与生活满意度间接相关。在主观财务状况的各种衡量标准中，结果是一致的。
