“…Kivela et al ( 168 ) investigated two waves (1984–1985 and 1989–1990) of Older Finns and noted that low religious participation increased the risk of depression in women, but not in men. These results were further expanded by Norton et al ( 167 ), Law and Sbarra ( 166 ), Sun et al ( 165 ), and Roh et al ( 170 ) who observed that older adults with higher church attendance had a reduced risk of developing depression and depressive symptoms in a short-time-interval. Hui-Chuan ( 164 ) investigated the role of NORA on the severity of depressive symptoms over a 4-year follow-up period.…”

ObjectivesThe present study investigated the association between religious and spiritual (RS) practices with the prevalence, severity, and incidence of mental health problems in older adults.MethodsWe conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies that investigated older adults aged 60+ years and assessed RS using valid scales and questions from valid scales, and mental health according to validated multidimensional or specific instruments. Studies were retrieved from MEDLINE, LILACS, SCOPUS, CINAHL, and AgeLine databases until July 31, 2021. The risk of bias was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale (NOS). A pooled effect size was calculated based on the log odds ratio (OR) and Z-scores. This study is registered on PROSPERO.ResultsOne hundred and two studies that investigated 79.918 community-dwellers, hospitalized, and institutionalized older adults were included. Results indicated that high RS was negatively associated with anxiety and depressive symptoms, while a positive association was observed with life satisfaction, meaning in life, social relations, and psychological well-being. Specifically, people with high spirituality, intrinsic religiosity, and religious affiliation had a lower prevalence of depressive symptoms. In relation to longitudinal analysis, most studies supported that high RS levels were associated with a lower incidence of depressive symptoms and fear of death, as well as better mental health status.ConclusionFindings of the present study suggest that RS are significantly associated with mental health in older adults. People with high RS levels had a lower prevalence of anxiety and depressive symptoms, as well as reported greater life satisfaction and psychological well-being, better social relations, and more definite meaning in life. Data provided by an increasing number of longitudinal studies have supported most of these findings.

“…Studies have proved that exposure to life negative events, such as serious illnesses, injuries, deaths of loved ones, marital separations, break-ups of steady relationships, onset of unemployment, major financial crises, and so on, is associated with depressive disorders and anxiety [22,23]. However, there is limited epidemiologic evidence linking life negative events exposure with DS risk among Chinese older population.…”

Life negative events and depressive symptoms: the China longitudinal ageing social survey

et al. 2020

Background: Although some studies have reported the association between life negative events and depressive disorders, very limited studies have examined the association between life negative events exposure and depressive symptoms risk among Chinese older adults. Methods: Data were obtained from the China Longitudinal Ageing Social Survey (CLASS), which was a stratified, multi-stage, probabilistic sampling survey, conducted in 2014. General linear regression and logistic regression were used to examine the association between life negative events exposure and depressive symptoms among Chinese older adults. Results: Life negative events showed statistical dose-response association with depressive symptoms risk after adjustment for the confounding factors (P trend < 0.001). Under consideration of life negative events exposure, participants who lived in rural areas, without a spouse or live alone were vulnerable to depressive symptoms. Conclusions: Life negative events played a risk role of depressive symptoms among Chinese older adults, especially among those in rural areas, females or without a spouse. Our current study is valuable for the development of special prevention depressive symptoms programs among elderly individuals, especially those who have experienced negative events.
