AB - This study examined when and how the poverty of elderly women was impoverished with 30 poor elderly women through interview. Also whether there was a difference in subjective health and life satisfaction between poor elderly women(n=30) and comparative ones(n=30), whether economic status, subjective health and life satisfaction were related each other, and whether the relationship of economic status and life satisfaction was mediated by subjective health. Results revealed most of the poor women were already impoverished before old age and only one woman impoverished after bereavement of partner in seventies. Poor group had lower level of subjective health and life satisfaction than comparative group. Elderly women with higher economic status experienced higher subjective health and life satisfaction and ones with higher subjective health experienced higher life satisfaction than women with lower ones. Also The relationship between economic status and life satisfaction was mediated by subjective health.
