A Study On The Influence Of Social Support On Self-rated Life Quality Of Chinese Home Elders

Since the middle of the twentieth century,aging has become a problem of globalization,and the rapid growth of the elderly population is a very serious problem.Data show that by2014,China has developed into the country with the largest total number of elderly people in the world.The aging population of our country has reached a relatively serious level.There are143.86 million people aged 65 and above,accounting for 10.5% of the total population.The problem of aging and the living conditions of the elderly have become the focus of attention of all walks of life and the focus of government work.Therefore,it is of great significance to understand their real-life situation and their research on their own quality of life evaluation.This article is based on the China Senior Elderly Health and Longevity Follow-up Survey(CLHLS)survey project.It first describes and analyzes the changes in the self-assessment of the living conditions of home elderly in 2005,2008,2011 and 2014.The quality of life of the elderly continues to improve,but 40% of the elderly live in general,and the quality of life of about 10% of the elderly is still poor or poor.Secondly,this article uses social support theory to divide social support into three dimensions: family support,community support and social security support.Then,using the logistic model and the 2014 sample to proceed from these three dimensions Related factors of support were analyzed.My research shows that family support at this stage has a significant positive impact on the quality of life of the elderly,such as living style and financial support of children,community support,social security support and other variables have varying degrees of influence on the self-assessment of the elderly’s living conditions.In addition,the economic status and health status of the elderly have a significant impact on their self-assessed living conditions.Through modeling and analysis of the self-assessment of the quality of life of the elderly,I found that: 1.Whether there is a person to talk to is more likely to affect the quality of life of the elderly than to whom.2.The self-assessed quality of life of the elderly without children ’s companionship is relatively poor compared to the self-assessed quality of life of the elderly accompanied by their children.Therefore,the number of surviving children of the elderly is not related to the self-assessed quality of life of the elderly.3.The role of community support mainly plays the role of "adding flowers on the cake" rather than "sending charcoal in the snow",so the current community support has little effect on the quality of life self-assessment of the elderly.4.Pension insurance has little effect on the self-assessment of the quality of life of the elderly.Through analysis,it is found that the existence is due to the low penetration rate of the pension insurance and the small support of the pension insurance cannot meet the daily needs of the elderly.5.Although suffering from chronic diseases has a certain impact on health,the impact on the quality of life of the elderly is not significant.Finally,through the above research,I found that: 1.The government should further expand the coverage of old-age insurance,and truly ensure that old-age insurance covers every elderly person;2.Enrich community elder care services and tilt more community service resources to the elderly elderly groups,so that community elder care can also become part of the pillars of modern elder care.3.Promote the integration of the medical insurance system and increase the old-age medical insurance participation rate.4.Encourage families to provide more emotional support,encourage institutions and community volunteers to provide more spiritual comfort to the elderly,make the elderly more satisfied with their living conditions,and enable them to grow healthy and grow old.
