Age, income and whether suffering chronicdiseases had significant effects on the dimension of mental state in health quotient(P<0.05).Gender, education level, income and whether suffering chronic diseases had significant effectson the dimension of self-care in health quotient(P<0.05). Education level, income,whethersuffering chronic diseases and the frequency of physical examination had significant effectson the dimension of health knowledge in health quotient(P<0.05).3The quality of life and health quotient of the elderly were provided with correlation, andwas statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion:1The quality of life and health quotient of the elderly could not be optimistic, alldimension scores were lower than the alert value, especially the lack of health knowledge.2The dimension of life style of the elderly was positively correlated with age, income andphysical examination frequency;The dimension of the elderly mental state was positivelycorrelated with age and income;It was worth of attention that the way of life, mental state of the older elderly people were better than younger elderly people; And it was also worth ofattention that the elderly do not suffering chronic diseases were better than those whosuffering chronic diseases in self-care ability and health knowledge;The dimension of healthknowledge of the elderly was positively correlated with education level, income and physicalexamination frequency.3Health quotient was conducive to the improvement of the quality of life of elderlypeople.
