人们对建筑环境在公共卫生中的作用重新产生了兴趣。到目前为止，研究其对健康老龄化的影响的研究相对较少。就地老龄化已被采纳为应对长寿挑战的一项关键战略。需要的是更好地了解老年人居住环境(从前门到更广泛的社区)的个人特征如何有助于他们的福祉，以便为循证住房/城市设计和干预措施的发展提供基础。这项研究旨在开发一种工具来客观地测量大范围的建筑环境特征，作为初步研究与一些与地点相关的功能、情感和社会福利结构的潜在关系的基础。通过对城市设计文献、设计文件和现有措施的回顾，开发了一种新的工具--NeDeCC(邻里设计特征检查表)。它是试行的，经过改进，并通过评分者之间的测试验证了其可靠性。通过对生活在英格兰不同城乡环境和不同类型住房的200名老年人的采访，确定并测量了一系列与地点相关的幸福感概念。NeDeCC被用来衡量每个参与者的居住环境，并确定了与幸福感变量的显著双变量关系。NeDeCC被发现具有令人信服的表面和结构效度，以及良好的评分员间和测试/重测可靠性，尽管它将受益于使用数字数据来源，如谷歌地球，以消除现场调查的需要。研究中发现的重要关系表明，可能存在一些与老年人生活潜在相关的居住环境特征，这些特征迄今在研究中被忽视，关于老年人想要住在哪里以及如何生活的一些假设可能值得质疑(例如，村庄似乎是积极的)。他们还指出了考虑非线性关系的重要性。如果在未来的前瞻性对照研究或“自然实验”中使用，NeDeCC将为循证设计指南的生成提供基础。最终，这将有助于在适当的地方创造更好的养老场所。
There is renewed interest in the role of the built environment in public health. Relatively little research to date investigates its impact on healthy ageing. Ageing in place has been adopted as a key strategy for coping with the challenges of longevity. What is needed is a better understanding of how individual characteristics of older people's residential environments (from front door to wider neighbourhood) contribute to their wellbeing, in order to provide the basis for evidence-based housing/urban design and development of interventions. This research aimed to develop a tool to objectively measure a large range of built environment characteristics, as the basis for a preliminary study of potential relationships with a number of 'place-related' functional, emotional and social wellbeing constructs. Through a review of urban design literature, design documents, and existing measures, a new tool, the NeDeCC (Neighbourhood Design Characteristics Checklist) was developed. It was piloted, refined, and its reliability validated through inter-rater tests. A range of place-related wellbeing constructs were identified and measured through interviews with 200 older people living in a wide variety of rural-urban environments and different types of housing in England. The NeDeCC was used to measure the residential environment of each participant, and significant bivariate relationships with wellbeing variables were identified. The NeDeCC was found to have convincing face and construct validity and good inter-rater and test/retest reliability, though it would benefit from use of digital data sources such as Google Earth to eliminate the need for on-site survey. The significant relationships found in the study suggest that there may be characteristics of residential environments of potential relevance for older people's lives that have been overlooked in research to date, and that it may be worthwhile to question some of the assumptions about where and how older people want to live (e.g. villages seem to be positive). They also point to the importance of considering non-linear relationships. The NeDeCC provides the basis for generation of evidence-based design guidance if it is used in prospective controlled studies or 'natural experiments' in the future. Ultimately, this will facilitate the creation of better places for ageing in place.
