Abstract

In this study, we collected data about factors affecting attachment of older adult. Especially, we want to identify effects of need satisfaction and sense of control about attachment formation of older adults. And we want to identify moderating effects of need satisfaction and sense of control in relationship between attachment and subjective wellbeing. As has been predicted, subjective demographic variables such as self rated satisfaction about children, satisfaction about self health, satisfaction about family economic status were more important to attachment formation of older adult than objective demographic variables such as age, sex, education level, number of children. Need satisfaction and sense of control explained significantly secure attachment and anxious attachment after controlling demographic variables. Further, need satisfaction and personal control played a role as moderator variables between attachment and subjective wellbeing.
