家庭关系对老年人养老类型选择的影响因素分析

Analysis of the Influencing Factors of Family Relationship on the Choice of Pension Type of the Elderly

摘要: 随着人口老龄化的加剧，为老年人选择合适的护理安排已成为一个至关重要的决定。了解影响这一决定的因素有助于改善护理计划和资源分配。本文利用CLASS2018年的调查数据，采用OLS回归来考察家庭关系与养老类型选择的关系。研究发现家庭关系对养老类型的选择有显著影响，老年人与子女的关系的质量和子女对老人的家庭护理类型选择的偏好产生积极影响。相反，紧张的家庭关系和有限的社会支持往往会推动对养老院或辅助生活设施等机构护理的偏好。意在强调在设计与老年人护理相关的政策和干预措施时考虑家庭动态和关系的重要性，以此提高老年人的生活质量和对护理安排的总体满意度。

Abstract: With an aging population, choosing the right care arrangements for older adults has become a crucial decision. Understanding the factors influencing this decision can help improve care planning and resource allocation. This paper uses CLASS2018 survey data to use OLS regression to investigate the relationship between family relationship and pension type selection. The study found that family relationship has a significant impact on the choice of type of old-age care, and the quality of the relationship between the elderly and their children and the preference of children for the choice of the type of home care of the elderly have a positive impact. Conversely, strained family relationships and limited social support tend to drive preference for institutional care such as nursing homes or assisted living facilities. The intention is to emphasize the importance of considering family dynamics and relationships when designing policies and interventions related to care for older persons in order to improve the quality of life and overall satisfaction with care arrangements for older persons.
