Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study examined influence of psychological factors on changes in health behaviors and health status after retirement among older adults. A longitudinal survey revealed that perceived health competence predicts changes in health behaviors and health status, the influences of working status on changes in health behaviors and health status are not predominant and robust, and health behaviors interact each other within married couples. A randomized controlled trial revealed that self-regulatory intervention can promote exercise behavior.
