Based on AMOS model, along with the national investigation data of China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) in 2013, this paper compiles socioeconomic status, pension incomes, health and life satisfaction of older adults as a interactional system, to investigate the factors of gender differences of life satisfaction. The results show that: (1) the impact of socioeconomic status on male`s physical health is signiifcant positive but is indistinctive on female; (2) higher socioeconomic status significantly reduces life satisfaction; (3) female’s pension incomes are worse than male’s, the impacts of pension incomes on both physical and mental health are not signiifcant while the impact on life satisfaction is signiifcant; (4) physical health lies a signiifcantly positive effect on male`s life satisfaction but insigniifcant on female`s. It is important to consider gender differences on public policies, thus to improve the equality of socioeconomic status between males and females, which has crucial meanings on improving health condition and life satisfaction on older adults.%基于CHARLS 2013年全国追踪调查数据，运用结构方程模型，将老年人社会地位、养老金收入、身体健康状况、心理健康状况和生活满意度组成一个交互影响、相互关联的系统，研究基于性别差异的老年人生活满意度影响因素。结果显示：（1）社会地位对男性老年人身体健康影响显著，对女性老年人影响不显著；（2）较高的社会地位显著降低了男性老年人和女性老年人的生活满意度；（3）女性老年人养老金收入水平显著低于男性老年人，养老金对老年人身体健康状况、心理健康状况的影响都不显著，对生活满意度影响显著；（4）身体健康状况对男性老年人生活满意度影响显著为正，对女性老年人影响不显著。将性别因素引入公共政策考虑之中尤为重要，探讨单因素以及基于性别差异的因素间相互影响过程，促进男性老年人和女性老年人在经济安全和社会地位方面的平等，对于提高老年人身心健康水平和生活满意度具有重要意义。
