Abstract

Measures of life outlook in older adults have been investigated in connection to pain, as both pain management and outlook are important factors of successful aging. We hypothesized that higher pain is associated with lower optimism among community-dwelling older adults. We utilized data from the UC San Diego Successful Aging Evaluation (SAGE), a prospective longitudinal cohort study initiated in 2010, to evaluate the relationship between pain and optimism in 378 community-dwelling adults aged ≥50 years. We used the revised Life Orientation Test (LOT-R) to measure optimism and three pain subscales-PROMIS Pain Interference, PROMIS Pain Intensity, and MOS 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36)-as pain measures. Regression analyses reveal negative relationships between pain and optimism for all three pain scales, with regression coefficients of -0.277 (p < .0001), -0.246 (p < .0001), and 0.269 (p < .0001) respectively. This indicates value in considering physical and psychological elements in future intervention research to promote healthy aging.

在社区居住的老年人中，自我描述的疼痛与乐观情绪之间的关系。

由于疼痛控制和人生展望都是成功老龄化的重要因素，因此我们对老年人的人生展望进行了与疼痛相关的调查。我们假设，在社区居住的老年人中，较高的疼痛感与较低的乐观程度相关。我们利用加州大学圣地亚哥分校 "成功老龄化评估"（Successful Aging Evaluation，SAGE）的数据，评估了 378 名年龄≥50 岁、居住在社区的成年人的疼痛与乐观情绪之间的关系。我们使用修订后的生活取向测试（LOT-R）来测量乐观情绪，并使用三个疼痛分量表--PROMIS 疼痛干扰、PROMIS 疼痛强度和 MOS 36 项短式健康调查（SF-36）--来测量疼痛。回归分析表明，在所有三个疼痛量表中，疼痛与乐观之间均存在负相关，回归系数为-0.277（p p p p

期刊介绍： These are some of the broad questions with which the International Journal of Aging and Human Development is concerned. Emphasis is upon psychological and social studies of aging and the aged. However, the Journal also publishes research that introduces observations from other fields that illuminate the "human" side of gerontology, or utilizes gerontological observations to illuminate in other fields.
