本研究的目的是确定志愿服务是否与老年人的高血压风险有前瞻性相关性。参与者在2006年和2010年的健康和退休研究中提供了数据，这是一项纵向小组调查，使用了具有全国代表性的社区居住老年人（年龄> 50岁）样本。在基线和4年后再次测量血压和血压。分析排除了基线时高血压的个体，并控制了年龄、种族、性别、教育、基线收缩压/舒张压和主要慢性疾病。那些在基线前12个月内自愿参加至少200小时的志愿者比非志愿者更不可能患高血压（OR= 0.60; 95% CI [0.40，0.90]）。在较低水平的志愿者参与中，志愿服务与高血压风险之间没有关联。锻炼至少200小时也与心理健康的更大增加相关（B= 0.99，β= 0.99）。05，p=. 006)体力活动（B= 0.21，β=. 05，p=. 04)然而，这些因素并不能解释志愿服务与高血压风险的关系。（PsycInfo数据库记录（c）2022阿帕，保留所有权利）
The purpose of the current study was to determine whether volunteerism is prospectively associated with hypertension risk among older adults. Participants provided data during the 2006 and 2010 waves of the Health and Retirement Study, a longitudinal panel survey using a nationally representative sample of community-dwelling older adults (age> 50 years). Volunteerism and blood pressure were measured at baseline and again 4 years later. Analyses excluded individuals hypertensive at baseline and controlled for age, race, sex, education, baseline systolic/diastolic blood pressure, and major chronic illnesses. Those who had volunteered at least 200 hr in the 12 months prior to baseline were less likely to develop hypertension (OR= 0.60; 95% CI [0.40, 0.90]) than nonvolunteers. There was no association between volunteerism and hypertension risk at lower levels of volunteer participation. Volunteering at least 200 hr was also associated with greater increases in psychological well-being (B= 0.99, β=. 05, p=. 006) and physical activity (B= 0.21, β=. 05, p=. 04) compared with nonvolunteers; however, these factors did not explain the association of volunteerism with hypertension risk.(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2022 APA, all rights reserved)
