| Abstract | Background: To explore how to prevent the social isolation of the elderly, this study constructed a model of the influence of community environmental satisfaction on the social isolation of the elderly from the three dimensions of environmental facilities, transportation, and supporting facilities around the community. Methods: The social network scale and environmental satisfaction scale were used to collect the sample data of nine communities in Xi’an, and the maximum likelihood estimation method was used to analyze the data and test the model. Results: (1) Environmental facilities, transportation, and community surrounding facilities promoted community environment satisfaction (R2 = 0.904). Among them, environmental facilities (β = 0.869) had the greatest impact on community environmental satisfaction, followed by transportation (β = 0.118), and surrounding facilities (β = 0.084) had the least impact on community environmental satisfaction. (2) Environmental satisfaction had a direct positive impact on social isolation. Among them, the impact of environmental satisfaction on friend isolation (R2 = 0.895, β = 0.829) was greater than that on family isolation (R2 = 0.718, β = 0.747). Conclusions: Environmental satisfaction can directly affect the social isolation of the elderly in the community and can be used as an intermediate variable of environmental facilities, transportation, and surrounding facilities in the community so that it can indirectly affect the social isolation of the elderly. The results of this study provide a scientific basis for the design of aging environments in the future. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
