基于潜在剖面分析的农村老年人自主性感知与自我养老能力的关系研究

Relationship between perceived autonomy and self-supporting ability of rural elderly:a latent profile analysis

目的探究农村老年人自主性感知的差异性及其与自我养老能力的关系。方法采用一般资料问卷、老年人自我养老能力量表、中文简版自主性感知量表对湖南省350名农村老年人进行问卷调查。运用潜在剖面分析识别自主性感知的潜在类别。结果农村老年人的自主性感知被识别为3个潜在类别,分别定义为低自主-高依赖型(14.0%)、中等自主型(55.1%)、独立自主型(30.9%)。分层回归分析结果显示,控制人口学变量后,自主性感知可独立解释农村老年人21.9%的自我养老能力变异。结论农村老年人的自主性感知呈现类别分布,即低自主-高依赖型、中等自主型、独立自主型;低自主-高依赖型者自我养老能力最低,需重点关注。

Objective To explore the difference of perceived autonomy and its relationship with self-supporting ability of rural elderly.Methods A total of 350 rural elderly in Hunan Province were surveyed by the general information questionnaire,Self-supporting Ability Questionnaire for Elderly People,Simplified Chinese Version of the Perceived Enactment of Autonomy Scale.Latent profile analysis was used to identify potential categories of perceived autonomy.Results The perceived autonomy of the rural elderly was identified as a model with three latent categories,defined as low autonomy-high dependency type(14.0%),moderate autonomy type(55.1%)and independent autonomy type(30.9%).Hierarchical regression analysis showed that the perceived autonomy could independently explain 21.9%of the variation in self-supporting ability of the rural elderly after controlling demographic variables.Conclusion The perceived autonomy of rural elderly is characterized by category distribution,including low autonomy-high dependence type,medium autonomy type and independent autonomy type.Those with low autonomy-high dependence type have the lowest self-supporting ability and require special attention.
