HPHIS研究调查了退休社区中个人样本的社会活动类型与生活满意度之间的关系。本文的主要目的是正式和明确地陈述一个长期以来一直隐含在老年学文献中的理论,即所谓的老龄活动理论。这一理论的实质是,活动与生活满意度之间存在正相关关系,角色丧失越大,生活满意度越低。本文的第二个目标是实证检验的假设,从而构建的理论,使用二手数据,作为一种手段,说明理论发展适用于一个共同的命题,在老年学。
HPHIS research examines the relationship be-•*-tween types of social activity and life satisfaction among a sample of individuals in a retirement community. The principal intent in the paper is the statement, formal and explicit, of a theory which has long been implicit in gerontological literature, the so-called activity theory of aging. The essence of this theory is that there is a positive relationship between activity and life satisfaction and that the greater the role loss, the lower the life satisfaction. A second goal of the paper is to empirically test hypotheses derived from the theory thus constructed, using secondary data, as a means of illustrating theory-development applied to a common proposition in gerontology.
