流行病学家和公共卫生研究人员正在研究邻里对个人健康的影响。老年人的健康可能更多地受到他们的社区的影响,因为流动性下降。然而,关于邻里关系对老年人健康的影响的研究特别有限。确定了最近关于老年人邻里和健康的研究。通过检索数据库(包括PsychINFO、CINAHL、PubMed、Academic Search Premier、Ageline、Social Science Citation Index和Health Source)确定研究。入选标准为:人类研究;英语;研究样本包括年龄≥55岁的成年人;健康结果包括心理健康、健康行为、发病率和死亡率;社区作为主要暴露变量;实证研究;以及包括≥ 10个社区的研究。空气污染研究被排除在外。1997-2007年发表了538篇相关文章;其中33篇符合纳入标准。总结了邻里关系的客观方面和感知方面的测量方法。邻里关系主要是使用人口普查界定的边界进行操作的。邻里的措施主要来自客观的数据来源,8项研究评估了感知邻里单独或结合客观措施。社区特征的六个类别是社会经济组成,种族组成,人口统计,感知资源和/或问题,物理环境和社会环境。这些研究主要是横截面的,并使用行政数据来表征邻里。这些研究表明,邻里环境对老年人的健康和功能很重要。
Epidemiologists and public health researchers are studying neighborhood’s effect on individual health. The health of older adults may be more influenced by their neighborhoods as a result of decreased mobility. However, research on neighborhood’s influence on older adults’ health, specifically, is limited. Recent studies on neighborhood and health for older adults were identified. Studies were identified through searches databases including PsychINFO, CINAHL, PubMed, Academic Search Premier, Ageline, Social Science Citation Index, and Health Source. Criteria for inclusion were: human studies; English language; study sample included adults aged ≥55 years; health outcomes including mental health, health behaviors, morbidity, and mortality; neighborhood as the primary exposure variable of interest; empirical research; and studies that included >=10 neighborhoods. Air pollution studies were excluded. Five hundred thirty-eight relevant articles were published 1997–2007; 33 of these articles met inclusion criteria. The measures of objective and perceived aspects of neighborhood were summarized. Neighborhood was primarily operationalized using census-defined boundaries. Measures of neighborhood were principally derived from objective sources of data; eight studies assessed perceived neighborhood alone or in combination with objective measures. Six categories of neighborhood characteristics were socioeconomic composition, racial composition, demographics, perceived resources and/or problems, physical environment, and social environment. The studies are primarily cross-sectional and use administrative data to characterize neighborhood. These studies suggest that neighborhood environment is important for older adults’ health and functioning.
