摘要: Background: Many Chinese elderly  increasingly face the serious problem of the "empty nest"  phenomenon. The elderly living independently, also called empty-nest elderly,  refers to elderly people living alone whose children left home. However few  studies concerned about the subjective well-being (SWB) of the elderly living  independently.
 Methods: This study employs The Memorial University of Newfoundland Scale of  Happiness (MUNSH) to explore the SWB of the elderly living independently in  rural areas of Wenzhou, a relatively developed  region in China.  536 sampled are randomly selected.
 Results: The results indicate that participants obtained low scores in positive  affect, positive experience, and the total SWB score, but high scores in  negative affect and negative experience. Age, low education, poor health  condition and little income were found to be negatively correlated with SWB.  The SWB score of the elderly living with a spouse is higher than those who  divorced or lost their spouse and the score of women is lower than that of  men. In addition, the survey revealed that children's support has a positive  influence on the SWB of the rural elderly living independently.
 Conclusions: The elderly living independently in rural Wenzhou, China  have unfavorable SWB. Poor socio-economic statuses are negative impact  factors. But the children's support can help to improve. Special attention is  needed to those with lower socio-economic status and less children's support.

摘要: Background: Physical activity (PA) in  older people is critically important in the prevention of disease,  maintenance of independence and improvement of quality of life. Little is  known about the physical activity of the older adults or their compliance  with current physical activity guidelines.
 Methods: A systematic literature search of the published literature was  conducted. Included were published reports of original research that  independently reported: the PA level of non-institutional older adults (aged  60 years and over); and the proportion of older adults in the different  samples who met PA recommendations or guidelines. The review was restricted  to studies published since 2000 to provide a current picture of older adults'  PA levels.
 Results: Fifty three papers were included in the review. The percentage of  older adults meeting recommended physical activity ranged from 2.4 - 83.0%  across the studies. Definitions of "recommended" physical activity  in older adults varied across the studies as did approaches to measurement  which posed methodological challenges to data analysis. Older age groups were  less likely than the reference group to be regularly active, and women were  less likely than men to achieve regular physical activity, especially leisure  time physical activity, when measured by both subjective and objective  criteria.
 Conclusion: The review highlights the need for studies which recruit  representative random samples of community based older people and employ  validated measurement methods consistently to enable comparison of PA levels  over time and between countries.
