Study on the Influencing Factors of Subjective Well-Being among the Elderly in Zhejiang Province—Data Analysis Based on CHARLS

近十年，我国老龄化加剧，2024年老年人口将破3亿，提升老年人幸福感成为应对老龄化、助力乡村振兴与共同富裕的关键。多数研究聚焦城市老人，对特定地区关注少。本研究聚焦浙江，依据CHARLS最新数据，以主观幸福感为因变量，探究正式、非正式社会支持影响。经有序Logistic回归分析发现：浙省养老保险、医疗保险等正式支持对幸福感的影响不显著，非正式支持中社交、经济支持正相关，情感支持较他省无正面效应。研究结果表明，有必要优化社会支持系统，以提升老年人幸福感，推动健康老龄化。In the past decade, China’s aging has intensified, with the elderly population expected to exceed 300 million by 2024. Enhancing the well-being of the elderly has become a crucial strategy for addressing aging challenges, supporting rural revitalization, and achieving common prosperity. While most existing studies focus on urban elderly populations, research on specific regions remains limited. This study focuses on Zhejiang Province, using the latest CHARLS (China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study) data to examine the impact of formal and informal social support on subjective well-being as the dependent variable. Ordered logistic regression analysis reveals that formal social support, such as pension and medical insurance, does not significantly affect the well-being of Zhejiang’s elderly, social and financial assistance in informal support shows a positive correlation, and emotional support does not exhibit a positive effect compared with other provinces. The findings suggest the need to optimize social support systems to improve the well-being of the elderly and promote healthy aging.
