摘要: 采用潜在转变分析探讨老年人孤独感的类别转变及其影响因素。研究数据来源于美国Health and Retirement Study (HRS)项目组, 追踪5442名老年人4年, 两次测量其孤独感。潜在类别分析结果表明, 老年人孤独感存在4个潜在类别:低孤独感组、社交孤独组、情感孤独组和高孤独感组。潜在转变分析结果表明, 低孤独感组和高孤独感组稳定性较强, 其他两组转变程度较大。其中, 社交孤独组倾向于向低孤独感组转变, 情感孤独组倾向于向高孤独感组转变。进一步分析发现, 男性老年人更可能陷入情感孤独; 高水平社会支持、积极老化态度和生活态度取向等可能在一定程度上降低老年人的孤独感水平。结论是, 老年人孤独感可分4类, 不同类别间随时间推移发生转变, 且转变方向受各种影响因素影响。
