This study examines relationships between older homecare service recipients' satisfaction with participation in everyday activities, and self-reported activity performance, health (feelings and overall health scores), physical/structural barriers, and frequency of homecare services. A total of 155 older adults from a municipality in mid-Norway (mean age 82.99, SD 6.03), were interviewed, based on a questionnaire including the item "satisfaction with participation" from the Participation of People with Mobility Limitations Survey (PARTS/M). A principal component analysis revealed a two-component solution: "outwards" and "domestic and private" participation satisfaction, and these components made the outcome variables in the study. There were no significant correlations between the outcome variables and frequency of homecare services. A standard multiple regression of the two components showed that the feelings' subscore and activity performance were the strongest predictors of "domestic and private" participation satisfaction, while the overall health subscore and physical/structural barriers were the strongest predictors of "outward" participation satisfaction. The study supports the importance of looking beyond activity performance and of exploring and supporting older adults' personal goals and priorities when considering participation and participation satisfaction.
