چکیده    The objective of this study is to examine the cultural views of healthy aging,knowledge and barriers to services,and perception of health sciences research among community-dwelling chinese older adults in chicago's chinatown. this qualitative study is guided by the precede-proceed conceptual model with community-based participatory research design. data analysis is based on eight focus group interviews with chinese older (age 60+) adults (n=78). we used a grounded theory framework to systematically guide the thematic structure of our data. findings show participants described cultural conception of health in terms of physical function,psychological well-being,social support,and cognitive function. the availability,affordability,and cultural barriers towards health care services were major negative enabling factors that inhibit participants from fulfilling health needs. perception and knowledge of health sciences research were also discussed. this study has implications for the delivery of culturally appropriate health care services to the chinese aging population. © 2010 xinqi dong et al.
