目的艺术文化活动有益于心理健康。然而，没有足够的证据表明积极参与艺术和文化活动可以预防老年人的抑郁症状。因此，我们研究了积极参与艺术和文化活动与老年人抑郁症状发作之间的关联使用3年的纵向data.MethodsThis纵向研究招募非机构化的老年人独立于日常生活从日本老年学评价研究（JAGES）成立于2010年，和那些没有抑郁症状的人进行了为期三年的随访。使用15项老年抑郁量表评估抑郁症状。积极参与九个艺术和文化活动，包括日本的传统文化活动，进行了评估（音乐表演，唱歌，跳舞，手工艺，绘画，摄影，诗歌创作，书法，茶道/插花）。参与者的平均年龄（标准差）为72.6（5.5）岁，51.5%为女性。在随访期间，3844名参与者（10.2%）出现抑郁症状。多因素Logistic回归分析显示，积极参与艺术文化活动与抑郁症状的发生呈负相关（OR = 0.80，95%可信区间= 0.73- 0.87，p < 0.001）。无论年龄、性别和社会经济地位如何，这种关联都得到了证实。在这些活动中，特别是舞蹈和摄影是预防抑郁症状的。ConclusionActive engagement in art and cultural activities may propose to prevent depression symptoms among older adults.ConclusionActive engagement in art and cultural activities may propose to prevent depression symptoms among older adults.促进艺术和文化参与对于保护他们的心理健康可能很重要。
ObjectivesArt and cultural activities can benefit mental health. However, there is insufficient evidence on active engagement in art and cultural activities for preventing depressive symptoms among older adults. Therefore, we examined the association of active engagement in art and cultural activities with depressive symptom onset among older adults using 3‐year longitudinal data.MethodsThis longitudinal study recruited non‐institutionalised older adults independent in daily living from the Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study (JAGES) established in 2010, and those without depressive symptoms were followed for three years. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the 15‐item Geriatric Depression Scale. Active engagement in nine art and cultural activities, including Japanese traditional cultural activities, were evaluated (musical performance, singing, dancing, handicrafts, painting, photography, poetry composition, calligraphy, and tea ceremony/flower arrangement).ResultsUltimately, 37,627 older adults without depressive symptoms at baseline were analysed. The participants' mean age (standard deviation) was 72.6 (5.5) years, and 51.5% were female. During the follow‐up period, depressive symptoms occurred in 3844 participants (10.2%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that active engagement in art and cultural activities was inversely associated with depressive symptom onset (odds ratio = 0.80, 95% confidence interval = 0.73–0.87,p< 0.001). This association was confirmed regardless of age, gender, and socioeconomic status. Among the activities, especially dancing and photography were protective against depressive symptoms.ConclusionActive engagement in art and cultural activities may contribute to preventing depressive symptoms among older adults. Promoting art and cultural engagement could be important to protect their mental health.
