ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the subjective well-being feelings of people aged ≥50 years in Shanghai by using the Day Reconstruction Method (DRM) and explore the related factors.Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted from October 2009 to June 2010 among people aged ≥50 years selected through multistage random cluster sampling in Shanghai.DRM was used to assess participants' subjective well-being by net effect and U-index.Univariate and multivariate linear regression models were used to explore the related factors.Results A total of 8 075 participants were included,with average age of 63.1 years.The mean net effect value was 1.24 (95%CI:1.15-1.33),and the mean U-index was 1.55% (95% CI:1.10%-1.99%).After adjusted for demographic factors,univariate liner regression model indicated that age,education level,marital status,family wealth,residence,self-rated health status,WHODAS score and prevalence of chronic disease were associated with subjective well-being,and multivariate liner regression model indicated that higher WHODAS score was associated with lower net effect value (P<0.05).Conclusion The subjective well-being feelings of people aged ≥50 years in Shanghai might be associated with age,education level,marital status,family wealth,residence,self-rated health status and WHODAS score.Enhanced social support and appropriate social security system might facilitate the improvement of the subjective well-being of the elderly.
