The Impact of Internet Use on the Well-Being of the Elderly in China: A Trajectory-Based Analysis

• 摘要：【】目的 识别我国老年人互联网使用及幸福感的发展轨迹,探讨互联网使用发展轨迹对幸福感发展轨迹的动态影响,并分析子女代际支持在其中的调节作用,为优化老年人互联网普及发展策略、提升老年人幸福感水平、积极应对人口老龄化提供实证依据。方法 使用组基轨迹发展模型识别并绘制我国老年人互联网使用及幸福感各自的发展轨迹,使用有调节的通用logits模型分析互联网使用发展轨迹对幸福感发展轨迹的影响以及子女代际支持在其中发挥的作用。结果 我国老年人互联网使用与幸福感呈现差异化发展轨迹；互联网使用发展轨迹对幸福感发展轨迹有显著正向影响,与幸福感低水平组相比,互联网中度使用组中的老年人归属于幸福感中水平组的概率是互联网离线组的1.55倍(P<0.01),互联网高频使用组中的老年人归属于幸福感中水平组的概率是互联网离线组的9.56倍(P<0.01)；同时互联网中度使用组中的老年人归属于幸福感高水平组的概率是互联网离线组的1.539倍(P<0.05),互联网高频使用组中的老年人归属于幸福感高水平组的概率是互联网离线组的9.03倍(P<0.01)；子女代际支持著负向调节互联网使用发展轨迹对幸福感发展轨迹的影响(幸福感中水平组:OR=0.768,P<0.05；幸福感高水平组:OR=0.733,P<0.05)。结论 我国老年人群体内部的互联网使用及发展水平差异巨大,互联网使用能显著且长期稳定地正向影响老年人幸福感,且该影响在子女代际支持较少的老年人群体中更为突出。建议构建线上线下服务并行的“双轨”体系,保障不使用互联网的老年人群体的自主选择权；同时应将互联网赋能作为精准的社会支持策略,重点关注子女代际支持资源不足的老年人群体,充分发挥互联网作为维护老年人长期福祉“稳定器”的积极作用。

  Abstract: 【】Objective To identify the developmental trajectories of internet use and well-being among Chinese older adults, explore the dynamic effects of internet use developmental trajectories on well-being developmental trajectories, and analyze the moderating role of intergenerational support from children, thereby providing empirical evidence for optimizing internet adoption strategies for older adults, enhancing their well-being levels, and actively responding to population aging. Methods Group-based trajectory modeling was employed to identify and map the respective developmental trajectories of internet use and well-being among Chinese older adults. A moderated multinomial logistic regression model was utilized to analyze the impact of internet use developmental trajectories on well-being developmental trajectories and the role of intergenerational support from children as a moderator. Results Chinese older adults exhibited differentiated developmental trajectories in both internet use and well-being. Internet use developmental trajectories had significant positive effects on well-being developmental trajectories. Compared to the low well-being group, older adults in the moderate internet use group had 1.55 times higher odds of belonging to the medium well-being group than those in the offline group (P<0.01), while those in the high-frequency internet use group had 9.56 times higher odds (P<0.01). Similarly, older adults in the moderate internet use group had 1.539 times higher odds of belonging to the high well-being group compared to the offline group (P<0.05), while those in the high-frequency internet use group had 9.03 times higher odds (P<0.01). Intergenerational support from children negatively moderated the impact of internet use developmental trajectories on well-being developmental trajectories (medium well-being group: OR=0.768, P<0.05; high well-being group: OR=0.733, P<0.05). Conclusion There are substantial differences in internet use and development levels within the Chinese older adult population. Internet use can significantly and persistently enhance older adults well-being over the long term, with this effect being more pronounced among older adults with less intergenerational support from children. It is recommended to establish a dual-track system that operates both online and offline services in parallel to ensure the autonomous choice rights of older adults who do not use the internet. Additionally, internet empowerment should be implemented as a targeted social support strategy, with particular attention to older adults with insufficient intergenerational support resources, fully leveraging the internets positive role as a stabilizer for maintaining older adults long-term well-being.
