ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the hotspots and trends of the elderly's subjective well-being research from 2010 to 2021, and hope to provide new research ideas for domestic researchers. Methods: Using CiteSpace software, based on CNKI database, 678 literatures from 2010 to 2021 were visually analyzed. Results the number of published papers showed an overall upward trend, and research hotspots focused on social support, loneliness, pension institutions, mental health, and physical exercise. Conclusion: More and more scholars pay attention to the subjective well-being of the elderly. With the progress of society, new research directions will be born in the future. After nearly ten years of visualization research, the research direction of the elderly's subjective well-being has shifted from happiness, square dancing, death attitude, etc. to the elderly's social support and social capital. The status quo, influencing factors and coping strategies of the elderly's subjective well-being were identified, which provided theoretical support for the scientific construction of the social service security system for the elderly in my country.
