Abstract: |
The proportion and numbers of the population aged 60 years and above in the overall population structure of Thailand are increasing in the midst of rapid socio-economic and cultural changes. These changes inevitably affect the well-being of the Thai elderly. This study aimed to indentify significant domains of quality of life and the constituent factors that are appropriate for the elderly people in the Thai context. It was expected that this study would contribute to an increased awareness of the existing and potential needs of this segment of the population and to a better understanding of how their needs may be measured and met. |
