The proportion of 65-year-old people in China reached 7%in 2000,which means that China has officially entered an aging society.China is still in the primary stage of socialism and strives for the realization of "two hundred years".To a certain extent,aging will increase the dependency ratio of the elderly and increase the burden of young people,which is not conducive to economic stability and sustainable development.And the old-age problem of the elderly will be more serious and prominent,among which the disabled elderly,as a vulnerable group of the elderly,should receive the primary attention.The traditional way of providing for the aged in our country is family pension.Under the realistic circumstances of miniaturization of family structure and universalization of young people's migration,family pension and solitary pension can hardly meet the care needs of the elderly,especially the disabled elderly.However,the recognition and acceptance of the elderly to the institutions providing specialized care services are still low,and the development of the pension institutions in our country is still imperfect.The problems of low quality,small quantity and uneven distribution.At this time,the study of the factors affecting the disabled elderly's choice of different ways of providing for the aged can give us directions to solve the problem.Firstly,this paper analyses the development status of disabled elderly in the general population and itself,then chooses the survey data of influencing factors of healthy and longevity of elderly people in China in 2014,which covers a wide range of areas and has a large sample.Through the interactive analysis of individual factors,family factors,socio-economic factors and disabled elderly people's choice of different ways of providing for the aged,the factors are finally put into multiple logistic regression.The model summarizes and analyses the significant factors.In terms of personal factors,with the increase of age,disabled elderly tend to choose institutional pension;the higher the education level of disabled elderly,the more likely they are to choose institutional pension;the living willingness of disabled elderly significantly affects their choice of different pension modes.In terms of family factors,the disabled elderly with spouses are more likely to choose family pension;the disabled elderly without children are more likely to choose institutional pension.In terms of social and economic factors,compared with the rural disabled elderly,the urban disabled elderly are more inclined to choose institutional pension;the disabled elderly with higher annual family income are more inclined to choose institutional pension;the disabled elderly in the eastern region are more inclined to choose institutional pension than the disabled elderly in the central and Western regions;compared with the disabled elderly without pension,they have pension.Disabled elderly people prefer to choose family pension.
