Prediction of physiological status, community participation, and daily activity function to sleep quality for outpatient dynapenic older people

Abstract

Background: The global aging population has increased dynapenia prevalence, leading to mobility issues and poor sleep quality among older adults. Despite its impact, research on sleep quality in dynapenic outpatients is limited. This study investigates how physiological status, community participation, and daily activity function influence sleep quality in this group. Methods: This cross-sectional study employed purposive sampling to collect data from 192 dynapenic older outpatients in October 2022, assessing their basic attributes, physiological status, community participation, daily activity function, and sleep quality. Data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 for descriptive statistics, independent samples t-tests, chi-square tests, and logistic regression analysis. Results: Findings indicated significant correlations between sleep quality and gender (X2 = 11.340, p
