孤独是幸福的一个重要指标。然而,我们对少数民族老年人口中的孤独感的了解有限。这项研究旨在确定美国华裔老年人中孤独的流行程度。数据来自PINE研究,这是一项基于人口的研究,对大芝加哥地区的3159名美国华人老年人进行了研究。我们的研究结果表明,孤独感的发生率为26.2%。年龄较大、女性和独居的老年人报告孤独的发生率更高。在过去的一年里,健康状况恶化、生活质量较差、健康状况出现负面变化的老年人也更有可能经历孤独。孤独感在大芝加哥地区的美国华裔老年人中很常见。未来需要进行纵向研究,以提高对中国老年人孤独相关危险因素和结果的理解。
Loneliness is an important indicator of well-being. However, we have limited understanding of loneliness in minority aging populations. This study aims to identify the prevalence of loneliness among U.S. Chinese older adults. Data were drawn from the PINE study, a population-based study of 3,159 U.S. Chinese older adults in the Greater Chicago area. Our findings indicated that the prevalence of loneliness was 26.2%. Older adults with older age, female gender, and living alone reported higher prevalence of loneliness. Older adults with worsened health status, poorer quality of life, and negative health changes over the past year were also more likely to experience loneliness. Loneliness is common among U.S. Chinese older adults in the Greater Chicago area. Future longitudinal studies are needed to improve the understanding of risk factors and outcomes associated with loneliness in Chinese older adults.
