摘要

背景:生命历程健康发展理论作为一种新的健康理论模型，既考虑了生理因素，也考虑了心理社会因素，提出了发育时间在人的一生中展开的影响。根据这一理论模型，以及与婚姻和健康有关的实证研究，婚姻关系可能是影响中年人健康的社会心理因素之一。目的:这项研究的目的是调查婚姻满意度、结婚年龄、社会经济地位和心理和身体健康之间的关系。研究对象为中年人士。方法:数据收集自土耳其40-69岁的中年人(160名女性和142名男性)。采用世界卫生组织生活质量测量工具、简要症状量表、婚姻生活量表和人口统计信息表评估参与者的身心健康、婚姻满意度、结婚年龄和社会经济状况。结果:通径分析显示，结婚年龄与心理健康问题感知呈显著正相关，与生理健康感知呈显著负相关。婚姻满意度和社会经济状况与感知的心理健康问题呈负相关。通过检验心理健康问题与社会地位的中介作用，我们发现婚姻满意度和社会地位都通过感知心理健康问题与感知身体健康相关。此外，结婚年龄与SES感知的心理健康问题相关。结论:婚姻是评价中年人感知健康的重要因素;当一个人在更成熟的年龄结婚并拥有积极的婚姻关系时，他会更健康。

Perceived Physical and Psychological Health in Middle Adulthood : Links to Marital Satisfaction, Age of Marriage, and SES

Background: The life course health development approach, as a new theoretical model relating to health, dwells on psychosocial factors as well as biological factors, and it proposes that the effects of developmental timing unfolding over one’s lifespan should be considered. Based on this theoretical model, as well as empirical studies relating to marriage and health, one of the psychosocial factors that may contribute to the health of middle-aged individuals is the marital relationship. Aims: The aim of this study – conducted with individuals in middle adulthood – is to investigate the relationships between marital satisfaction, age at the time of marriage, SES (socioeconomic status) and psychological and physical health. Method: Data was collected from middle-aged individuals between 40–69 years in Turkey (160 women and 142 men). The World Health Organization Quality of Life Measurement Tool, Brief Symptom Inventory, Marriage Life Scale, and a Demographic Information Form were used to assess the participants’ perceived physical and psychological health, their marital satisfaction, their age of marriage, and SES. Results: A path analysis indicated that the age of marriage was positively related, and perceived psychological health problems were negatively related to perceived physical health. Both marital satisfaction and SES were negatively related to perceived psychological health problems. Upon examination of the mediator role of psychological health problems and SES, it was observed that both marital satisfaction and SES were related to perceived physical health through perceived psychological health problems. Also, the age of marriage was related to perceived psychological health problems via SES. Conclusion: The findings showed that marriage is an important component in the evaluation of perceived health in middle age; individuals are healthier when they get married at a more mature age and have a positive marital relationship.
