The PACOA was developed through a qualitative study and expert panels. A pilot study confirmed the 19-item PACOA which included five factors (meaning of life, dependency, feeling "in place," continuity, and social inclusion) were extracted. This model explained 60.803% of the variance. Cronbach's α of the PACOA and its subscales were .853 and .670 to .863, respectively, whereas the correlations between the PACOA and its subscales were .580 to .725 (p less then .01). The criterion validity and test-retest reliability were .678 (p less then .01) and r = .654 (p less then .01). Our findings suggest that the PACOA is an indicator of the emotional connection between older adults and their places of residence. Future studies should address the older adult-place fit, the future connection characteristics, and the influence of place attachment on older adults' healthy lifestyle behaviors.College students face significant health concerns. In recent years, there has been an emergence of health-related residential learning communities (RLCs) at institutions of higher education, which endeavor to improve students' academic and health outcomes by offering a communal living environment and programming. However, there is negligible literature describing health-related RLCs as a health promotion intervention, the kind of experience residents have, or the impact that health-related RLCs have on student outcomes. To begin to fill this gap, this article describes a health-themed RLC named HealthWave that was created at a private Southern university and the diverse stakeholders involved. It also summarizes results from a multimethod evaluation that included focus groups, an experience survey, and a quasi-experimental study with non-HealthWave students in the same residence hall as the comparis
