TY - JOUR PY - 2017// TI - The mediating effect of neighbor relationship between community social support and elderly's subjective well-being in China JO - Journal of health psychology A1 - Jiang, Shan A1 - Li, Chunkai A1 - Wang, Zhiyou A1 - Fang, Xiaotong SP - 1359105317733535 EP - 1359105317733535 VL - ePub IS - ePub N2 - This study aimed to investigate the relationship between community social support, neighbor relationship, and the subjective well-being of the elderly in China. Structural equation modeling was used to test the hypothesized model based on a sample of 2732 senior adults from 2010 Chinese General Social Survey.

RESULTS showed that community social support could indirectly affect the subjective well-being of the elderly through the complete mediating effect of neighbor relationship, although there was no significant correlation between community social support and the elderly's subjective well-being. Implications for theory, social work, and social policy were discussed.
