Since the beginning of the 21 st century,my country's aging has intensified with the development of industrialization,urbanization and modernization.Up to now,it is the developing country with the largest number of elderly people in the world and the fastest development of aging.In the coming decades,the degree and speed of my country's aging will continue to deepen.The large group of elderly people has increased the burden on the society,but also brought many social problems.Therefore,the elderly need to continue to socialize to adapt to social development.The continued socialization of the elderly mainly refers to the adaptive adjustment and learning made by the elderly individuals in order to adapt to the changes in social living environment and social culture and the requirements of new roles,including continuing to learn and mastering the original social knowledge and constantly learning new knowledge.Faced with the increasingly serious aging problems in the future,sports should play an active role in promoting the continued social development of the elderly in the city,solve or alleviate the series of social problems caused by aging,improve the quality of life and happiness of the elderly in their old age,and promote active The realization of aging.Taking the life-long socialization theory and Maslow's hierarchy of needs as the research perspective,using the research and analysis methods of combining theory and empirical,logical reasoning and comparative analysis,using specific research methods such as literature data method,questionnaire survey method,mathematical statistics method,Taking 295 elderly people with independent living ability as the research object in Changsha City,the demographic characteristics were analyzed,and the current status of sports participation and continued socialization was analyzed and analyzed.The study found that the overall level of urban elderly sports participation is not ideal,and the enthusiasm needs to be improved.The main performance is that the frequency of participation is relatively low,the duration of participation is short,the participation period is short,and the overall participation situation is declining;the socialization of the elderly in the city continues to be generally better,and a few need to be improved.The main problem is that it is difficult for a few elderly people to adapt to the change of the role of the elderly;the socialization of the elderly is mainly narrow,mainly based on the "acquaintance" group;some elderly people feel weak and their self-worth identity is reduced;Sports have a positive role in promoting the socialization of the elderly in the city.This is mainly reflected in the fact that urban elderly people have a positive impact on their social roles,interpersonal relationships,socialvalues,and behavioral cognition through sports participation,and promote their continued socialization.It is recommended to raise awareness,strengthen support,expand paths,and improve the system from the perspectives of elderly individuals,families,society,and government,to further enrich the sports life of elderly groups,help them smoothly implement the transition of social roles in their later years,and make them spend their happy years in later life.
