Purpose: This study was to compare and to examine the factors related to quality of life between urban and rural elderly.
Methods: This was a descriptive correlation study. The subjects were 366 elderly(183 urban and 183 rural) over 65 years of age. Data was analyzed by descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression with SAS statistics.
Results: The degrees of depression, self-esteem, and quality of life in urban elderly were significantly better than in rural elderly. The predictors of quality of life in all urban and rural elderly were depression, self-esteem, and age. Depression was the biggest factor in all urban and rural elderly. These factors explained 61.6% of the total variance in urban elderly, and 64.5% in rural elderly.
Conclusion: These findings suggest a need to develop a nursing strategy to improve quality of life for rural elderly especially. To improve the quality of life in all elderly, the above major influencing factors should be considered.
