Abstract

In 1995, life expectancy in Japan reached to more than 65 years old and in some European and North American countries it reached to even 80 years old. Moreover if the main aim of hygiene in the last century was only "to be alive", in this century it has been changed to "living with the best quality". The problems of old age cannot be treated in the elderly, but these problems such as eyesight and hearing loss and chronic diseases can be prevented by adequate planning in childhood, adolescence and young periods. That is by careful planning in these years and consequently proper use of physical, psychic and social capabilities the old age problems will be lessen. As old age is the result of interference of various physiologic, psychic and social factors, so its problems stem from the individuals themselves and they can be investigated and prevented providing that adequate KNOWLEDGE, skill and time will be in access.In this analytic descriptive study the degree of KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE of 20-65 years old population in Kerman city in relation to OLD AGE HYGIENE have been studied based on demographic: features of age, sex, marital statues, number of possessed children, educational level and job. For this purpose city was divided into 30 regions and 23-24 individuals of each region that were selected by cluster sampling. Data were collected by using questionnaires that were distributed based on age pyramid in three age groups.Based on the results, there was significant difference among all three age groups in relation to KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE. The age group of 20-34 showed a better KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE in comparison to the other two groups (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in KNOWLEDGE between men and women, but men had better PRACTICE than women (P<0.001). Unmarried subjects showed better KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE in comparison to married subjects (P<0.001). Subjects with higher educational levels showed better KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE (P<0.00l). In relation to job, those with official jobs had better PRACTICE (P<0.00l). In regard to KNOWLEDGE about psychic health and PRACTICE in relation to physical psychic and social health, three age groups showed significant differences, in a sense that the age group of 50-65 had better KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE (P<0.001). Women showed better KNOWLEDGE and PRACTICE in relation to psychic and social health in comparison to men (P<0.001) and also unmarried subjects and those without any children showed better PRACTICE in relation to physical, psychic and social health than married subjects and those with children (P<0.001). In regard to education, uneducated subjects had better KNOWLEDGE about psychic health, whereas those with bachelor degrees or higher degrees had better PRACTICE in relation to physical, psychic and social health (P<0.05). Subjects with official jobs had better PRACTICE in physical psychic and social health (P<0.00l).
