Abstract
Aging and health issues continue to receive attention, especially under the global health challenge of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. It is important to understand how people adapt their lifespan development to face the gains and losses of resources. The purpose of this study was to test the relationships between health resources, selection, optimization, and compensation (SOC) strategies and well-being with aging; to examine the impact of SOC strategies on health resources and well-being, and the link between health resources and well-being. Using structural equation modeling to analyze our hypotheses, a sample survey of 372 adults was conducted. The results showed that health resources were positively and significantly related to SOC and well-being. SOC strategies were positively and significantly related to well-being and SOC strategies partially mediated the link between health resources and well-being. The findings contribute to the literature by establishing a model and providing practical implications for individual behavior, as well as better understanding of the theoretical and practical implications of aging and health. A friendly community and organization may help people’s well-being in terms of physiology, psychology, society, and environment.
Highlights
IntroductionWe live in increasingly interdependent and global environments and the COVID-19 pandemic presents countries with major political, economic, societal, cultural, educational, transportation, and public health challenges [3]
Considering that we expect health resources to relate to SOC strategies, which in turn influences well-being, we propose the following: Hypothesis 4 (H4)
In line with the previous studies [39,40], our results showed the fact that health resources were positively related to well-being
Summary
We live in increasingly interdependent and global environments and the COVID-19 pandemic presents countries with major political, economic, societal, cultural, educational, transportation, and public health challenges [3]. In order to prevent people’s health from being threatened, people may be forced to suspend work and adjust to interact with family and friends. These changes cause personal psychological burdens, an increase in social isolation, and a decrease in interpersonal interactions. As a result, such shocks will affect people’s satisfaction with the environment, society, politics, economy, life, and even well-being
