N2  - The present study examined the relationships between housing environments and health and well-being among older adults with physical disabilities in South Korea. Data are from the 2014 National Survey on Persons with Disabilities. We modelled four health and well-being outcomes - perceived stress, depressive symptoms, suicidal ideation, and life satisfaction - by various housing environments among 2,077 older adults with physical disabilities. The results illustrate that home ownership and perceived house accessibility are associated with health and well-being. <br><br>FINDINGS indicate that efforts to promote the health of older adults with physical disabilities need to be accompanied by improvements in their housing environment.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
