The results indicate a strong association between population aging and these economic factors. The correlation rankings, from highest to lowest, are investment, followed by household consumption, government consumption, and net exports. Based on these findings, the study recommends increasing investment and developing the aging industry, actively utilizing elderly human resources, and enhancing export activities to promote net exports.
