Abstract

The elderly population is increasing rapidly worldwide, including in Indonesia, leading to significant health, social, and economic implications. The aging process often leads to physical, psychological, and social changes that can negatively affect quality of life.Thus, ensuring a high quality of life is crucial for achieving successful aging. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the quality of life and successful aging among elderly individuals in Cimahi City. A cross-sectional study was conducted with 128 elderly participants, selected proportionally WHOQOL-BREF and SAS should be briefly explained with full names in parentheses when first mentioned for clarity to readers unfamiliar with them. Was used to assess quality of life, while the Successful Aging Scale (SAS) was employed to evaluate successful aging. Bivariate analysis was performed using the Chi-square test at a significance level of p<0.05. A significant relationship was found between successful aging and the physical (p=0.003), psychological (p=0.000), and environmental (p=0.002) domains of quality of life. However, no significant association was observed in the social domain (p=0.114). The results suggest that physical health, psychological well-being, and environmental support are key factors contributing to successful aging. Social relationships, though important, did not show a statistically significant impact in this study. Health interventions and policies aimed at promoting successful aging should prioritize improving the quality of life for the elderly, particularly by enhancing physical and mental health and ensuring a supportive and secure living environment.

Abstract

Sleep disturbance and anxiety are common among older adults, but evidence from residents of social care institutions in West Java remains limited. This study examined the association between anxiety levels and sleep quality among older adults residing at the West Java Elderly Social Service Center. A cross-sectional correlational study was conducted among 62 residents drawn from a source population of 160. Anxiety was assessed using the Indonesian version of the Geriatric Anxiety Scale (GAS), and sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The association was evaluated using the Fisher-Freeman-Halton exact test, with Cramer's V used as a measure of effect size. Moderate anxiety was observed in 67.7% of participants, while 82.3% had good sleep quality. Good sleep quality was reported by 100% of participants with mild anxiety and 95.2% of those with moderate anxiety. Poor sleep quality was reported by 77.8% of participants with severe anxiety and all participants with panic-level anxiety. Anxiety level was significantly associated with sleep quality (p = 0.001; Cramer's V = 0.786). Higher anxiety categories were associated with a greater frequency of poor sleep quality, although the cross-sectional design did not establish causality. These findings provide institution-specific evidence for gerontological nursing and support the integrated assessment of anxiety and sleep quality among older adults in residential care.
