“…It is noteworthy that the mortality rate per 100,000 population from circulatory system diseases is much higher in older adult population, with 130.1 persons in 60~69 age group and 520.9 persons in 70~79 age group compared to 23.4 persons in 40~49 age group [2]. Since cardio-cerebrovascular diseases of older adults are accompanied by various neurological impairments and sequelae, functional defects, and medical complications even after successful surgeries and treatments, it is difficult for patients to return to their daily lives, and the socio-economic burden is also quite heavy for patients [3]. Therefore, older adults should manage cardio-cerebrovascular diseases in a proactive way, and the care should be taken to prevent high-risk diseases of cardio-cerebrovascular system, such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis, from leading to development of severe cardio-cerebrovascular diseases.…”

Purpose: This study was to identify factors explaining health empowerment of older adults with high-risk of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Methods: Using a structured questionnaire, data were collected from 148 older adults residing in two areas who have one or more of the following diseases; hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson correlation analysis, and hierarchical multiple regression. Results: Health empowerment had a positive correlation with health literacy and social support. Perceived health status and social activity participation showed significant contribution in explaining health empowerment. Conclusion: This study showed that enhancing perceived health status and social activity participation are vital in an effort to improve health empowerment of the population. Main findings of this study can contribute to developing health empowerment interventions to improve health behavior practices of the older adults.

The aim of the present study was to analyze the factors that affects the intention of mental health promotion program among Korean elderly persons. Data were from the A Study on the Seoul Welfare Panel Study 2010. Subjects were 2,111 persons aged 60 and older living in the community. Dependent variable was defined as intention of mental health promotion program. Explanatory variables were included as age, gender, education level, employment status, household income, marital status, drinking, self-reported health status, subjective family relationship, subjective relationship with friends, depression, and physical activity.
