Neighborhood environment and indoor environment are two main living environments to older adults during their daily life. Until now, many researchers have already paid attention to the improvement in the indoor environment for older adults, but few researchers notice that neighborhood environment also plays a critical role in the quality of life (QoL) of older adults, especially older adults who are aging in place. This article aims to explore the complex inner relationship between neighborhood environment and QoL of older adults based on systematic literature review (SLR) and interpretative structural modeling (ISM). All neighborhood environmental factors related to QoL of older adults are searched, screened, quality assessed, counted, and then identified according to SLR protocol. Then, based on the questionnaire survey and the one-to-one interview, the ISM of all identified neighborhood environmental factors is established to clarify the inner relationship among those factors in urban areas, and the role of each neighborhood environmental factor is analyzed by MICMAC analysis. This inner relationship among neighborhood environmental factors can provide valuable retrofit strategies of neighborhood environment to improve QoL of older adults efficiently.

基于SLR–ISM方法探索影响老年人生活质量的邻里环境因素之间的内在联系

邻里环境和室内环境是老年人日常生活中的两个主要生活环境。到目前为止，许多研究人员已经注意到老年人室内环境的改善，但是很少有研究人员注意到邻里环境在老年人，尤其是老年人中的生活质量（QoL）中也起着至关重要的作用。到位。本文旨在根据系统文献综述（SLR）和解释性结构建模（ISM），探讨老年人邻里环境与QoL之间的复杂内部关系。根据SLR协议，对与老年人QoL相关的所有邻里环境因素进行搜索，筛选，质量评估，计数，然后进行识别。然后，在问卷调查和一对一访谈的基础上，建立了所有识别出的邻里环境因素的ISM，以阐明城市地区这些因素之间的内在联系，并通过MICMAC分析了每个邻里环境因素的作用。邻里环境因素之间的这种内在联系可以为邻里环境提供有价值的改造策略，以有效提高老年人的生活质量。
