Description

Junyan Tian and four co-authors study what stops middle-aged and older adults from enjoying leisure, and how those blocks relate to well-being, in a 2023 paper. Leisure activity is tied to lower depression, lower dementia risk, and better body health. Yet older adults hit blocks of three kinds: inner blocks like stress, social blocks, and outer blocks like cost or transport.

The team measured blocks with a standard questionnaire and well-being with items on purpose and growth. They tested whether blocks still predicted well-being after accounting for age, income, loneliness, health, and neighborhood traits. Few studies had looked at that deeper kind of well-being, as opposed to simple mood. The answer helps programs target the blocks that cost the most.
