abstract: 'The purpose of this study was to identify social determinant and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
communication correlates of health-related quality of life for kaumatua
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(Maori elders) in New Zealand. A total of 209 kaumatua completed a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
self-report survey of self-rated health, physical/mental quality of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
life, spirituality, and a series of questions about social determinants
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(e.g., factors related to income) and communication variables (e.g.,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
loneliness, social support, cultural identity, and perceived
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
burden/benefit). The survey was baseline data for a peer education
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
intervention to help kaumatua work through life transitions in older
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
age. The main findings of this study were that social determinants,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
particularly difficulty paying bills, accounted for a small amount of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
variance in physical/mental quality of life and self-rated health.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Further, the communication correlates of loneliness, perceived burden,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and desired support accounted for about three times as much variance in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
these two outcomes all with negative associations. Strength of tribal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
identity, importance of whanau (extended family), and knowledge of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
tikanga (customs and protocols) accounted for a moderate amount variance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in spirituality with positive associations. These findings have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
important theoretical and practical implications for positive aging.'
