520 $a This descriptive, correlational study was based on Pender's Health Promotion Model (Pender, Murdaugh, & Parsons, 2002). The purpose was to examine factors influencing health status in community-dwelling, older white and black adults. The following research question was addressed by the study: What are the relationships among the individual characteristics (age, gender, race, education, and income); the behavior-specific cognitions and affect (perceived self-efficacy, perceived barriers, and interpersonal influences); and the behavioral outcomes (health-promoting behaviors), and health status in community-dwelling whites and blacks 65 years of age and older? The convenience sample of 113 participants from four congregate meal sites in Central Virginia represented 46% of the young-old (aged 65 to 74 years); 83% females, 76% blacks, and 43% less than high school educated. Twenty-one percent had an annual household income of $4,999 or less, and 31% reported having an income between $10,000 and $14,999. The demographic questionnaire, the Perceived Health Competence Scale, the Barriers Scale, the Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II, the Lubben Social Network Scale, and the Short Form-12RTM, Version 2 Health Survey were used to collect data.
520 $a These participants reported high perceived self-efficacy (Mean = 37.35, SD = 6.76), which was positively related to a health-promoting lifestyle ( r = 0.20, p < 0.05), physical health ( r = 0.25, p < 0.05), and mental health status (r = 0.41, p < 0.01). They perceived few barriers to health-promoting behaviors (Mean = 37.22, SD = 6.63). However, perceived barriers were not significantly related to health-promoting lifestyle (r = -0.10, p < 0.05). Perceived barriers were inversely related to physical health (r = -0.33, p < 0.01), and mental health (r = -0.46, p < 0.01). The participants had good social supports and their living arrangements were satisfying (Mean = 28.12, SD = 8.62). These interpersonal influences were positively related to health-promoting lifestyle ( r = 0.26, p < 0.01), and mental health ( r = 0.2, p < 0.05). (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
