摘要

活躍老化是老齡化社會的目標，如何讓高齡者在晚年過有意義的生活，便成為重要的課題。高齡者社區參與是評斷活躍老化的重要依據，研究可透過評估高齡者的心理福祉來評斷社區參與對其心理與生活的影響。在研究母群體的選擇上，以屏東縣65 歲以上的高齡者為分析焦點，採用問卷調查法進行資料蒐集。本研究將以Ryff（1989）心理福祉概念作為模型建構依據，用此模型來驗證屏東縣高齡者社區參與和心理福祉之關係。本研究將使用多元迴歸分析方法，進行問卷資料的驗證。模型結果顯示，社區參與較高的高齡者，其心理福祉也較佳，此研究結果再次印證心理福祉與社會參與的正向關係。

With active aging being the goal of an aging society, how to maintain a meaningful later life for the elderly becomes a critical issue. An important basis for active aging assessment is community participation, through which the psychological well-being of the elderly can be evaluated and the impact on their mental health and their life assessed. On the selection of the population for this study, the target for analysis consists of senior Pingtung County citizens aged 65 or more. Questionnaire survey is administered for data collection. Based on the model derived from the concept of psychological well-being by Ryf（f 1989）, this study will explore the relationship between Pingtung elderly's community participation and their psychological well-being. Data from the survey will be tested by multiple regression method. The model showed higher levels of psychological well-being for the elderly who participated in community than those who did not, which again confirmed the positive relation between community participation and psychological well-being.
