This study examined factors associated with social and productive activities, and the relationships between social and productive activities and well-being among the elderly by using panel data. Well-being was assessed by three measures: "Activity and Daily Life Satisfaction Scale for the Elderly", "Social Activities-Related Daily Life Satisfaction Scale" and "Life Satisfaction Index K" (LSIK).
