Non-linear logistic regression analyses were used separately by gender to examine the association between satisfaction and performance of meaningful activities and depressive symptoms. The prevalence of depressive symptoms was 15.8%. We found no significant difference between meaningful activity choice between older adults with depressive symptoms and those without, in both men and women. After adjusting for potential covariates, satisfaction was associated with depressive symptoms in both men (OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.35−0.77) and women (OR 0.67, 95% CI 0.49−0.91), but performance was limited in women (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.77−0.99). Our findings suggest that depressive symptoms are associated with satisfaction in meaningful activities regardless of activity categories.https://www.mdpi.com/2077-0383/9/3/795meaningful activitiessatisfactiondepressive symptomscommunity-dwelling older adultsepidemiology |
