Objectives: The purpose of this study was to identify the factors influencing depressive symptoms in older adults. Methods: A cross-sectional design was used. Data were drawn from the 7th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES VII-1). The final data of 1,447 older adults over 65 years were analyzed using Chi-square test, Mann-Whitney U test, and multiple logistic regression. Results: The study participants of 9.2% reported depressive symptoms. By physical activity domains, active leisure time physical activity was 6.1%, active work-related physical activity was 2.4%, and active transport physical activity was 26.7%. Transport (travel to and from places) physical activity was inversely associated with risk of depressive symptoms. Factors associated with increased risk of depressive symptoms included marital status, household monthly income, stress, and chronic diseases. Conclusions: Promoting participation of transport physical activity may serve as a important intervention strategy in reducing the risk of developing depression in the elderly.
