Abstract
ABSTRACT Although there is no generally agreed upon definition of the term age friendly, almost all definitions share the same health related goals. Menec et. al. offered a conceptual framework defining age friendly as efforts to increase connectivity. Our analysis was designed to test the hypothesis that targets of many age friendly efforts (food, housing, transportation and social capital) are associated with these health outcomes. We discovered that the two areas associated with increasing connectivity, transportation and social capital, were associated with the age-friendly health related goals. We conclude that Menec's framework provides a useful way of defining age friendly interventions.
期刊介绍：
Housing is more than houses-it is the foundation upon which the essentials of life are anchored. The quality of housing can enhance or diminish the well-being of individuals and families as well as that of the entire community. Before the Journal of Housing for the Elderly, housing for the elderly as a subject area has a relatively brief history. The Journal of Housing for the Elderly aims to serve the needs of gerontological professionals in the fields of architecture and housing, urban planning, and public policy who are responsible for the residential environments of the elderly in the community.
