Objective:To explore the current state of subjective well-being among community-dwelling older adults and to explore the influencing factors and their pathways of action.Methods:Between September 2023 and January 2024, older adults in the Nanguan community of Baoding City were selected for the study using the convenience sampling method. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of Happiness (MUNSH), Elderly's Psychological Capital Questionnaire, Social Capital Scale for Older Adults, and Human Capital Scale. AMOS 24.0 was used to develop structural equation modeling to analyze the path relationships between the factors.Results:A total of 240 questionnaires were distributed, and 229 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a recovery rate of 95.42%. The MUNSH score of 229 community-dwelling older adults was (42.69±6.20). The results of structural equation modeling showed that human capital, social capital, and psychological capital all positively influenced the subjective well-being of community-dwelling older adults, with total effect values of 0.316, 0.429, and 0.112, respectively. Human capital directly affects subjective well-being, and social capital affects it indirectly through psychological and human capital. Psychological capital indirectly affected subjective well-being through human capital.Conclusions:The subjective well-being of community-dwelling older adults is moderate to high. It is positively influenced directly and/or indirectly by human capital, social capital, and psychological capital. Community nurses should take targeted interventions to improve older adults' human capital, social capital, and psychological capital, and ultimately achieve the goal of increasing the subjective well-being of community-dwelling older adults.

Objective:To investigate the chain mediating role of psychological resilience and coping styles between social support and psychological distress in elderly stroke patients.Methods:Using convenience sampling, 245 elderly stroke patients with their first episode, admitted to the Neurology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Hebei University from June to July 2023, were recruited as study subjects. A questionnaire survey was conducted using a General Information Questionnaire, Distress Thermometer for Stroke Patients, Perceived Social Support Scale, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale Short Form, and Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationships between psychological distress, social support, psychological resilience, and coping styles in elderly stroke patients. Harman's single-factor test was employed to detect common method bias among variables. The PROCESS macro in SPSS software was utilized to test the chain mediation effects.Results:A total of 245 questionnaires were distributed, with 230 valid responses collected, yielding a response rate of 93.9%. Among the 230 elderly stroke patients, the incidence of psychological distress was 23.9% (55/230). Significant correlations were observed among psychological distress, social support, psychological resilience, and coping styles ( P<0.05). Social support influenced psychological distress through the mediation of psychological resilience and confrontational coping, with a total indirect effect of -0.098. The same relationship existed for social support through psychological resilience and avoidant coping, with a total indirect effect of -0.058. Additionally, social support influenced psychological distress through psychological resilience and submissive coping, with a total indirect effect of -0.113. Avoidant coping had a suppressing effect on the influence of social support on psychological distress. Conclusions:Elderly stroke patients experienced moderate to low levels of psychological distress. Psychological resilience and coping styles played a chain-mediating role between social support and psychological distress. Special attention should be given to elderly stroke patients with low levels of social support.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of factors affecting the long-term care needs of disabled elderly in elderly care institutions, and provide basis for taking targeted nursing intervention.Methods:From July to November 2018, convenience sampling method was used to conduct cross-sectional survey of the current situation and influencing factors of long-term care needs of 508 disabled elderly people in 10 elderly care institutions in Baoding City by general information questionnaire, Barthel index, the Long-term Care Needs of the Disabled Elderly in elderly care institutions, the Questionnaire on the Factors Affecting the Long-term Care Needs of the Disabled Elderly in elderly care institutions. SPSS 21.0 was used for correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis, and AMOS 24.0 was used for model fitting, path and mediation effect analysis.Results:The score of long-term care needs of the disabled elderly in elderly care institution was (105.04 ± 21.68) points; the scores of intra-personal, interpersonal, and extra-personal factors were (16.93 ± 5.20) points, (10.51 ± 3.39) points, (19.80 ± 6.24) points, respectively. Intra-individual factors, interpersonal factors, extra-individual factors and care needs were all positively correlated ( r values were 0.222-0.645, P<0.05). Intra-individual, inter-personal and extra-individual factors could directly affect the long-term care needs of the disabled elderly ( β=0.455, 0.527, 0.403); intra-individual and inter-personal factors had independent mediating effects and chain mediating effects between extra-individual factors and the long-term care needs of the disabled elderly, and the effects were significant, with effect value of 0.078, 0.095 and 0.023, accounting for 15.15%, 18.45% and 4.47% of the total effect, respectively. Conclusions:Each influencing factor has a strong ability to predict and explain the long-term care needs of the disabled elderly, and nursing staff could meet the care needs of the disabled elderly according to different influencing factors.
