摘　　要：目的:考察养老方式对老人心理健康水平的影响。方法:以北京101名养老机构老人与1350名社区老人为被试,以老年焦虑问卷(GAI)和老年抑郁问卷简版(GDS-15)为工具对其焦虑和抑郁水平进行测量。结果:①机构老人与社区老人在抑郁水平上不存在明显差异,焦虑水平显著低于社区老人。②对性别、年龄、婚姻情况、文化程度以及户籍种类匹配的42对被试(平均79.11岁)进行比较后发现机构老人的焦虑水平依然显著低于社区老人,抑郁水平无差异。结论:在控制了背景变量的影响后,机构老人的心理健康情况并不差于社区老人。Objective： To investigate the differences of resident places in anxiety and depression after controlling the demographic variables. Methods： Totally 101 nursing home residents and 1350 community-dwelling old adults participated in the survey. Information about demographic background and health-related conditions was collected. Anxiety and depression were measured with GAI and GDS respectively. Results： For the whole sample, there is no significant difference on the level of depression between the two groups. The community-dwelling participants reportedhigher level of anxiety than nursing home counterparts. Furthermore, consistent results were found again for the 42 pairs of participants when each pair was strictly matched with age, gender, educational experience, marital situation, household register type and the number of diseases. Conclusion： Comparing with community, nursing home might be more, at least not less, beneficial for older people＇s mental health.
