本研究旨在分析居家改造与居所老化之间的关系。使用启用年龄的英国样本(N=376)，作者假设，修改了住房的老年人可能会在目前的住房中停留更长时间。居家改造与就地老龄化之间存在正相关关系。这一结果强调了支持性环境对延长住房环境中生活的重要性。
The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between home modifications and aging-in-place. Using the ENABLE-AGE United Kingdom sample (N = 376), the authors hypothesize that seniors who have modified their housing are likely to have stayed longer in their current housing. There is a positive relationship between home modifications and aging-in-place. The results underscore the importance of supportive environment to prolong living in housing settings.
