홈페이지논문 초록 (Abstract)
There is a plethora of empirical research on the quality of life in later life as global population ageing accelerates. However, some previous research on this subject may have used the concept vaguely or even incorrectly. As a result, this paper aims to conceptually build a framework on the quality of life in later life hereinafter called ‘the multi-dimensional model of the quality of life in later life’. This ultidimensional model consists not only of objective quality of life, including standard of living, social activity, and objective health status, but also subjective quality of life, including life satisfaction, happiness, and subjective health status. To promote further empirical research using the model, this paper suggests a conceptual structural equation model based on previous empirical studies on the significant associations amongst those dimensions.
