摘要:
对重庆市的400名60岁及以上社区老年人的社会支持、抑郁与主观幸福感进行了调查，探讨社会支持、抑郁与主观幸福感的关系。与以往研究结果一致，研究显示抑郁是社会支持对主观幸福感影响之间的中介变量，起到部分中介的作用；研究进一步指出，社会支持主要通过直接效应影响主观幸福感，优势分析发现相比于抑郁，社会支持对老年人主观幸福感的预测作用更大，解释76.30%的变异，抑郁只能够解释23.70%。结果提示，提高老年人的社会支持水平，是提高其幸福感的有效途径。
400 elderly people aged over 60 in Chongqing were investigated with perceived social support scale, the geriatric depression scale and Well-Being of Citizens’ Questionnaire to study the relationship between social support, depression and subjective well-being of elderly people. The results showed that depression was a mediator between social support and subjective well-being, and it was found that social support affected subjective well-being mainly through direct effects. Compared with depression, social support had a greater predictive effect on subjective well-being of elderly people, which explained 76.30% of variation when depression is 23.70%. The results suggest that improving the level of social support for the elderly is an effective way to improve their well-being.
