1Department of Occupational Therapy, Semyung University, Jecheon, Republic of Korea.
Engaging in outdoor leisure activities significantly boosts life satisfaction for older adults. Developing dynamic leisure programs and national policies can enhance their quality of life.
Area of Science:
- Gerontology
- Leisure Studies
- Public Health
Background:
- Investigating the relationship between leisure time and life satisfaction in healthy elderly individuals.
- Identifying factors influencing this correlation within the aging population.
Purpose of the Study:
- To examine the connection between leisure activity time and life satisfaction in healthy older adults.
- To identify key factors impacting this relationship.
Main Methods:
- Utilized data from the 2014 Time Use Survey (2014TUS) by Statistics Korea.
- Analyzed time allocation across various activities for 9,228 subjects.
- Examined differences in time use by occupation domains across age groups.
Main Results:
- Increased time spent on outdoor leisure activities correlated with higher life satisfaction.
- Significant differences in time use were observed between younger and older age groups.
- Factors such as having a spouse, full-time employment, higher education, and good health were associated with greater life satisfaction.
Conclusions:
- Recommends developing dynamic, physically engaging leisure programs for older adults to improve quality of life (QoL).
- Suggests national-level policy interventions to promote older adult participation in leisure activities.
- Provides occupational therapists (OTs) with data for time management interventions to enhance elderly life satisfaction and QoL.
