  1. Ikigai mediates frailty in humans (β = −0.00845, 95% bootstrap CI [−0.01101, −0.00610]).

    “the indirect pathway through ikigai alone accounted for 95.3% of the total indirect effect (β = −0.00845, 95% bootstrap confidence interval: [− 0.01101, − 0.00610])”

Social ties and well-being linked to frailty in older adults

In 751 older Japanese adults, well-being and life satisfaction accounted for 95.3% of the modelled indirect link between social ties and frailty.In 751 older Japanese adults, well-being and life satisfaction accounted for 95.3% of the modelled indirect link between social ties and frailty.
