The purpose of this article is to analyze and evaluate the relationships of illness and activities of daily living (ADL) with self-rated health and subjective well-being of the Care House residents for the elderly. Three hundred forty-three residents from twenty-nine Care Houses in Japan participated in this research as subjects. Illness, ADL, self-rated health, and subjective well-being (measured by the PGC Morale Scale) were assessed. Applying this data as latent variables, a Covariance Structure Model Analysis was applied in 2 models. The causal relation between self-rated health and subjective well-being was analyzed using two models. In model A, ADL was measured by physical ADL-moving, eating, bathing, etc. In model B, ADL was measured by sensory ADL-seeing and hearing. Results from model A showed that self-rated health was directly influenced by physical ADL and illness while morale was directly influenced by self-rated health only. Results from model B showed that self-rated health was directly influenced only by illness while morale was directly influenced by the sensory ADL and self-rated health.
