Özet

This study investigated the successful aging among men with various chronic health conditions. A cohort of 303 male participants (50 men with high blood pressure, 32 with cardiac disease, 30 with diabetes mellitus, 23 with the prostate gland, and 39 with other diseases) were included in the study. Successful aging scale (SAS), independence in activities of daily living scale (ADLs), instrumental activities of daily living scale (IADLs), satisfaction with life scale (SLs) were performed. SLs was positively associated with SAS (R = .287;r(2) = .083;p <=.001), healthy lifestyle habits (HLH) (R = .046;r(2) = .014;p <=.001), struggle against difficulties (SAD) (R = .307;r(2) = .094;p <=.001), and IADLs (R = .156;r(2) = .024;p <=.001). Age was negatively associated with IADL (R = .247;r(2) = .061;p <=.001). Age was unassociated with SAS or the components (HLH;SAD). Monthly income was positively associated with SLs (R = .409;r(2) = .167;p <=.001). Education was positively associated with SAD (R = .230;r(2) = .053;p <=.001), HLH (R = .237;r(2) = .056;p <=.001), SLs (R = .190;r(2) = .036;p <=.001), and SAS (R = .252;r(2) = .064;p <=.001). The SAS with its components was valid and reliable [chi 2:92,485; chi 2/df:2.371; SRMR:.099; RMSEA:.067; NNFI:.926; IFI:.937; CFI:936; GFI:.916; AGFI:.916]. SLs and education had a positive effect on SAS, and its components (HLH, SAD). The SAS was proved with validity and reliability.
