ABSTRACT Objective: Residential satisfaction and neighborhood quality play major roles in aging well. However, longitudinal research about the interplay between such factors is still sparse. Our 1-year study examined whether change in residential satisfaction was associated with change in two indicators of neighborhood quality: neighborhood attachment and neighbor annoyance. Methods: Findings come from a longitudinal study with 85 community-dwelling German older adults (age range: 60 to 92 years). Participants filled out questionnaires at two measurements that were 1 year apart. The interplay between residential satisfaction and neighborhood was explored using a cross-path model. Results: Higher levels of residential satisfaction predicted enhanced attachment and reduced annoyance over time. Moreover, attachment predicted positive change in residential satisfaction over the course of 1 year. Conclusion: Results suggest that older adults may apply adaptive behaviors and strategies to optimize their neighborly experiences. Such findings have implications for improving residential satisfaction in community-dwelling older adults.

老年住房：邻里依恋、邻里烦恼和居住满意度之间的动态相互作用

摘要 目的：居住满意度和邻里质量在老龄化中起着重要作用。然而，关于这些因素之间相互作用的纵向研究仍然很少。我们为期 1 年的研究调查了住宅满意度的变化是否与社区质量的两个指标的变化有关：邻里依恋和邻里烦恼。方法：结果来自对 85 名居住在社区的德国老年人（年龄范围：60 至 92 岁）的纵向研究。参与者在相隔 1 年的两次测量中填写问卷。使用交叉路径模型探索了住宅满意度和邻里之间的相互作用。结果：随着时间的推移，更高水平的居住满意度预示着依恋增强和烦恼减少。而且，依恋预测在 1 年内住宅满意度的积极变化。结论：结果表明，老年人可能会应用适应性行为和策略来优化他们的邻里体验。这些发现对提高社区老年人的居住满意度具有重要意义。
