Abstract

Abstract

Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the mental health status of the empty nest elderly in China with meta-analytic techniques, in order to provide evidence for intervention. Methods We performed online searches of the CBM, Wanfang, VIP, CNKI, Springer Link, ELSEVIER, ScienceDirect and PubMed databases in October 2014 for studies using SCL-90 to evaluate the psychological health status of the empty nest elderly. The STATA 9.0 software was used for Mata-analysis. Results A total of 12 studies were included in this meta-analysis. Compared to the sample of general population in 2006, somatization, depression, anxiety and phobic anxiety in the empty nest elderly were obviously serious, the difference was statistically significant. Interpersonal sensitivity, anxiety, phobic anxiety and paranoid ideation in the empty nest elderly were significantly poorer comparing with non-empty nest elderly. In addition, a statistical significance with standardized mean difference (SMD) of obsessive-compulsive disorder, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety and phobic anxiety in the female empty nesters was observed in comparison with male empty nesters. Conclusions The mental health status of the empty nest elderly was significantly lower than the general population or non-empty nest elderly. The mental health status of the female empty-nesters was significantly inferior to men.
