Abstract

ABSTRACT Korea’s population is aging and the quality of life (QOL) of older adults has become a significant social challenge. Research on the QOL of older adults has focused on health, social support, and objective institutional factors, without identifying the influence of subjective factors related to policy. This study includes policy expectations for national pension, long-term care insurance for older adults, and basic pension, in addition to health factors, such as cognitive function, depression, and activities of daily living (ADL), and social support from family members and friends. The results based on the 7th Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging (KLoSA) confirmed the significant relevance of relationships with friends (+) as social support along with cognitive function (+) and depression (-). Policy expectations for the national pension and long-term care insurance also had a positive relation with the QOL of older adults. These results have implications for future research and policies.

政策预期、健康和社会支持是否影响老年人的生活质量?
韩国人口正在老龄化,老年人的生活质量(QOL)已成为一个重大的社会挑战。关于老年人生活质量的研究侧重于健康、社会支持和客观制度因素,而没有确定与政策有关的主观因素的影响。本研究包括对国民年金、长者长期照护保险、基本年金的政策预期,以及认知功能、抑郁、日常生活活动(ADL)等健康因素,以及来自家人和朋友的社会支持。基于第七次韩国老龄化纵向研究(KLoSA)的结果证实了与朋友的关系(+)作为社会支持以及认知功能(+)和抑郁(-)的显着相关性。对国民年金和长期护理保险的政策预期也与老年人的生活质量呈正相关。这些结果对未来的研究和政策具有启示意义。
