Description
Chen Yuhang and coauthors sort in 2026 older adults in two Chengdu districts by how well their basic mental needs are met or blocked. Needs for choice, skill, and close ties shape mental health late in life, yet people mix met and blocked needs in distinct ways. Grouping those mixes can help aim support where it fits.
Surveys from 430 residents, gathered in late 2025, supported four groups. The largest group, near half the sample, had its needs well met, while a small group had them broadly unmet. Life satisfaction, distress scores, and social support helped explain who fell in each group. The authors use the groups to guide local mental health work with older adults.
