目的： 健康な准高齢者に相応する中高年女性で健康状態を主観的幸福感，心理的指標や生活習慣病関連指標との関連で検討した。
対象： M市在住の健康な中高年女性82名（平均年齢：66歳）
方法： 主観的幸福感の指標は【改訂PGCモラール・スケール（以下PGC）】を，心理的指標の不安尺度は【日本版 STAI（以下STAI）】，【SDSうつ性自己評価尺度（以下 SDS）】を用いた。糖・脂質代謝も測定した。血液検査の平均値はほぼ正常値だった。PGCは不安・うつ状態指標と高い負の相関を示した。PGCはHbA1cと有意な正の相関を示し， STAIはHbA1c，TGとの間に有意な負の相関，HDL-Cと有意な正の相関を示した。
結論： 健康な准高齢者ではPGCと心理的要因が強く関連しており，糖・脂質代謝との間にも相互に関連があることが推測された。准高齢者では心理的要因の重要性が示唆された。

Aim: To clarify the relationships between a subjective sense of wellbeing and psychological indices as well as lifestyle disease-related indices among middle-aged or elderly women corresponding to healthy elderly people aged 65 to 74 years.
Subjects: A total of 82 healthy middle-aged or elderly women living in a city (mean age: 66 years). Methods: The revised PGC Morale Scale (PGC), Japanese Version of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (attributes and state), and SDS were used to assess the subjective sense of wellbeing, anxiety as one of the psychological indices, and depressive state, respectively. In addition, glucose and lipid metabolism was measured. The average value of hematological testing was normal. PGC showed strong negative correlations with anxiety and depression indices, as well as a significant positive correlation with HbA1c. STAI showed significant negative correlations with HbA1c and TG, as well as a significant positive correlation with HDL-C.
Conclusion: The results indicate that PGC strongly correlates with psychological factors and glucose/lipid metabolism. We suggest the importance of these factors among healthy elderly people.
