在健康的60岁及以上的巴西社区居民（N = 345）中，研究了成功老龄化与人口统计学、社会经济和医学特征的关系。参与者被分为成功（n = 214, 62%）和正常（n = 131, 38%）两组。成功人士参与休闲活动的比例（34%）明显高于正常人士（21%）。多因素logistic回归分析显示，子女数量是成功老龄化的危险因素，而知己和家庭收入是成功老龄化的保护因素。
The association of successful aging with demographic, socioeconomic, and medical characteristics in healthy community-dwelling Brazilian individuals aged 60 years and older (N = 345) was investigated. Participants were classified as successful (n = 214, 62%) or normal (n = 131, 38%) agers. Successful agers participated in significantly more leisure activities (34%.) than did normal agers (21 %). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the number of living children was a risk factor, whereas confidants and family income were protective factors for successful aging.
