摘要

This study examined the correlation between using elderly privilege program and positive attitudes toward aging in Chinese older adults, while also exploring the potential mediating effect of adult children’s support in this relationship. The analysis utilized data from the 2014 China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey, a comprehensive survey conducted nationwide among individuals aged 60+ years in China (N = 7102). Regressions were performed using PROCESS v3.3 for SPSS 20.0. Results showed that using elderly privilege program was significantly correlated with positive attitudes toward aging (b = 0.329, p < 0.05), and financial support (b = 0.024, BCa CI [0.005, 0.048]) from children mediated the relationship. The findings suggested that to maintain positive attitudes toward aging in Chinese older adults, both elderly privilege program and support from adult children are encouraged. Our findings may enhance existing theories and understanding, and have potential implications for policies and interventions in social work for Chinese older adults.
