摘要

摘要本研究的目的是通过使用两种不同的方法来检查与跌倒风险相关的环境危害，并讨论老年人的适应性应对策略。一名研究人员和一个老年退休社区88个老年人独立生活单元的居民发现了环境危害。本研究采用了两种统计分析，包括依赖样本t检验和成对Kappa统计，以确定两种评估工具在环境危害方面的显著差异，并检查每个项目的评分者间可靠性。研究结果表明，由于老年人的应对策略、知识、经验和健康状况不同，他们很难像客观测量那样识别出那么多环境危害。居民的感知是一个必要的组成部分，因为它可以提供关于危险的新见解。这项研究为老年人如何应对环境危害提供了经验证据。

Understanding How Older Adults Negotiate Environmental Hazards in Their Home

Abstract The purpose of this research was to examine environmental hazards related to falling risk by using two different approaches and to discuss older adults’ adaptive coping strategies. Environmental hazards were identified by a researcher and residents in 88 older adults’ independent living units at a senior retirement community. This research employed two statistical analyses including a dependent sample t-test and pair-wise Kappa statistics in order to identify a significant difference in environmental hazards from two assessment tools as well as examine the inter-rater reliability on each item. Research findings show that older adults could hardly identify as many environmental hazards as the objective measurement did because of their different coping strategies, knowledge, experience, and health status. The residents' perception is a necessary component in that it could provide new insights about hazards. This research provides empirical evidence of how older adults negotiate their environmental hazards.

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.
