ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to examine the benefits of Snoezelen room for older people living in nursing homes. Participants were 84 people with dementia from Barcelona (Spain) that were randomly assigned to Snoezelen or reminiscence sessions. Bi-weekly sessions were held over a period of 12 weeks. Participants in the Snoezelen group displayed significant improvements in depression and anxiety and a greater degree of relaxation. Participants with slight dementia were also more likely to display more alertness and offer constructive answers. Snoezelen room could be implemented in a range of dementia’s stages, stressing its implications for slight dementia profile.
摘要:本研究的目的是研究养老院老年人使用Snoezelen房间的好处。参与者是来自巴塞罗那(西班牙)的84名痴呆症患者,他们被随机分配到Snoezelen或回忆组。每两周举行一次会议,为期12周。Snoezelen组的参与者在抑郁和焦虑方面表现出了显著的改善,并且更放松了。轻度痴呆的参与者也更有可能表现出更强的警觉性,并提供建设性的答案。Snoezelen room可以在痴呆的一系列阶段实施,强调其对轻度痴呆的影响。

ABSTRACT Inclusive choirs promote social inclusion by providing the opportunity for persons living with dementia, caregivers and volunteers to sing together as equals. The aim of this qualitative study is to present the development of an inclusive choir in a day care center through rehearsal process and the feedback from the participants. Twelve persons living with dementia, four staff members and one volunteer participated in fourteen rehearsals led by a choirmaster, leading up to a concert with Christmas-themed songs. Persons living with dementia showed confidence, enjoyment, consistency and learning contributing to their empowerment and engagement throughout the study. Regarding volunteers, a shift from stigma associated with negative representations about dementia to social inclusion were observed. Care staff were point of reference for persons living with dementia and as the study progressed, they moved from the position of carers to singing partners. For all participants, a group cohesion and a sense of being connected developed. Such approaches contribute to raise awareness of dementia and reducing the stigma associated and to promote social inclusion of persons living with dementia.
包容性合唱团通过为痴呆症患者、护理人员和志愿者提供平等合唱的机会,促进社会包容。本质性研究的目的是透过排练过程及参与者的反馈,来呈现日托中心包容性合唱团的发展。12名痴呆症患者、4名工作人员和1名志愿者在唱诗班指挥的带领下进行了14次排练,最后举行了一场圣诞主题歌曲音乐会。在整个研究过程中,痴呆症患者表现出自信、享受、一致性和学习能力,这有助于他们增强能力和参与。在志愿者方面,观察到从与痴呆症负面表征相关的耻辱到社会包容的转变。护理人员是痴呆症患者的参考点,随着研究的进展,他们从护理人员的位置转变为唱歌的伙伴。对于所有参与者来说,团队凝聚力和联系感都得到了发展。这些方法有助于提高对痴呆症的认识,减少与之相关的耻辱感,并促进痴呆症患者的社会包容。

ABSTRACT There is a lack of research on whether participating in productive aging (PA) activities affects driving among older adults and each PA activity’s independent effect on driving. This study aims to assess how PA activities affect driving frequency using the social ecological model. Ordinal regression was used to analyze data from the National Health and Aging Trends Study (n = 4655). We examined whether participation in PA activities and perceived importance of PA activity participation were related to driving frequency. Higher driving frequency was observed among older adults who worked for pay, provided care, visited friends and family, went out for enjoyment, and had higher perceived importance of PA activity participation. Alternative transportation services and programs could be implemented to ensure safety, mobility, and PA participation as the population continues to age.
参与生产性老龄化(PA)活动是否会影响老年人的驾驶,以及各种PA活动对驾驶的独立影响,目前缺乏研究。本研究旨在利用社会生态模型评估PA活动对驾驶频率的影响。序数回归用于分析来自国家健康和老龄化趋势研究(n = 4655)的数据。我们研究了参与PA活动和参与PA活动的感知重要性是否与驾驶频率有关。在那些工作挣钱、照顾他人、探亲访友、外出享乐以及认为参与私人活动的重要性更高的老年人中,驾驶频率更高。随着人口持续老龄化,可以实施替代交通服务和计划,以确保安全、机动性和PA参与。

ABSTRACT Physical experience has a significant effect on older adults, especially on enhancing psychological well-being. A cross-sectional survey were conducted with 120 healthy older adults (mean age 69.0 years; 67.5% female), who indicated what activities and how often they undertook and filled in the short version of WHO Quality of Life scale (WHOQOL-BREF), which measured their life satisfaction in four domains. The results show that both the frequency and the intensity of physical activities improve life satisfaction. Older adults with low activity levels rarely choose cognitive or physically demanding activities over less demanding activities. The most active older adults prefer frequent but light physical activity, social interactions and solitary entertainment.
身体体验对老年人有显著影响,尤其是在增强心理健康方面。对120名健康老年人(平均年龄69.0岁;67.5%为女性)进行了横断面调查,他们指出了自己从事的活动和频率,并填写了世界卫生组织生活质量量表(WHOQOL-BREF)的简短版本,该量表测量了他们在四个领域的生活满意度。结果表明,体育活动的频率和强度都能提高生活满意度。活动水平较低的老年人很少选择认知或身体要求较高的活动,而不是要求较低的活动。最活跃的老年人更喜欢频繁但轻松的体育活动、社交和单独娱乐。

ABSTRACT Occupational therapists utilize cooking groups to optimize intrinsic capacity and functional ability, but there is a lack of scientific evaluation. This quasi-experimental study aimed to investigate the effect of a cooking group on cognitive, emotional, psychomotor, and interpersonal performance in older adults. Nineteen participants with chronic conditions were recruited to attend ten consecutive cooking sessions. Large Allen Cognitive Level Screen-5 (LACLS-5), Thai Geriatric Depression Scale (TGDS-15), psychomotor speed test and interpersonal communication observation were used. The results showed significant improvement in the study outcomes. Therefore, the cooking groups have improved cooperative capacity through engaging the older adults’ functional abilities.

ABSTRACT This cross-sectional survey was aimed to explore the features of later life security and their related factors among Thais using the WHO Active Aging Framework. Data were collected from 1,129 adults aged 18–59 years in Nakhon Nayok, Thailand using a self-administered questionnaire consisting of three sections measuring demographic data, factors related to the active aging concept, and preparedness for later life. Logistic regression analyses were applied to determine the associated factors. The results showed that all the three later life preparedness variables were rated at medium levels; and setting aside funds for later life and managing inheritance were reported more frequently than having made funeral arrangements. Preparation for later life was strongly associated with community participation (odds ratio, 4.6; 95% CI 3.1–6.8) and financial security preparation (odds ratio,3.5; 95% CI 2.3–5.2). Further research is needed to promote later life preparation during the new normal period when community engagement and financial planning are more difficult and also to understand the features of later life preparation among aging population because lives of older persons are also more vulnerable and uncertain due to the pandemic.
摘要本次横断面调查旨在利用世界卫生组织积极老龄化框架,探讨泰国人的后期生活安全特征及其相关因素。数据收集自泰国那空那约市1129名18-59岁的成年人,使用一份自填问卷,该问卷由三部分组成,测量人口统计数据、与积极老龄化概念相关的因素以及对以后生活的准备情况。采用Logistic回归分析确定相关因素。结果表明,所有三个后期生活准备变量都被评为中等水平;据报道,为晚年生活留出资金和管理遗产比安排葬礼更频繁。为晚年生活做准备与社区参与(比值比4.6;95%置信区间3.1-6.8)和财务保障准备(比值比3.5;95%可信区间2.3-5.2)密切相关。在社区参与和财务规划更加困难的新常态时期,需要进一步研究以促进晚年生活的准备,并了解晚年生活的特点在老龄化人口中做好准备,因为老年人的生活也因疫情而更加脆弱和不确定。

ABSTRACT Loneliness is a risk factor for poorer health and quality of life of older adults. To provide an insight into loneliness interventions aimed at populations aging, this study examined the relationships between loneliness, voluntary/charity works, and quality of life among European older adults. This study builds on secondary data analysis employing data drawn from the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) Waves 4 and 6; data collected in 2011 and 2015. A total sample of 32,839 aged 65+ who responded at both waves 4 and 6 were analyzed. Regression analysis was performed to determine the relationship between study variables, in particular, mediating role of voluntary/charity works in the association between loneliness and quality of life cross-sectionally and longitudinally. Results revealed that loneliness was significantly and negatively associated with quality of life over time, and voluntary/charity works appeared to in part mediate the relationship between loneliness and quality of life. Study findings provide evidence for a need for incorporation of social and civic activities such as volunteering into loneliness interventions for older adults.
孤独是老年人健康状况和生活质量下降的危险因素。为了深入了解针对人口老龄化的孤独干预措施,本研究调查了欧洲老年人的孤独、志愿/慈善工作和生活质量之间的关系。本研究建立在二级数据分析的基础上,采用了欧洲健康、老龄化和退休调查(SHARE)第4和第6轮的数据;数据收集于2011年和2015年。总共有32,839名65岁以上的人在第4波和第6波都有反应。通过回归分析确定研究变量之间的关系,特别是志愿/慈善工作在孤独感与生活质量关系中的中介作用,并进行横向和纵向分析。结果显示,孤独感与生活质量呈显著负相关,志愿/慈善工作似乎在一定程度上调解了孤独感与生活质量的关系。研究结果为将社会和公民活动(如志愿服务)纳入老年人孤独干预措施的必要性提供了证据。

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to describe older adults’ perceptions of loneliness, quality of life and connection to their community center during physical distancing to inform classes and events during COVID-19. A descriptive, mixed methods study using online and telephone surveys was conducted with 265 older adults in a major Canadian city. Older adults reported a lower quality of life and community connection and a greater sense of loneliness, however resilience emerged as a strong theme. Participants identified regular physical exercise, connection to others through technology and a philosophical approach to events and life as ways of coping with physical distancing. Community centers need to actively continue to innovate with technology, classes and events and provide regular, supportive communication with members during COVID-19 and beyond.
摘要本研究的目的是描述新冠肺炎期间老年人对孤独、生活质量和与社区中心的联系的感知,为课程和活动提供信息。使用在线和电话调查对加拿大一个主要城市的265名老年人进行了一项描述性的混合方法研究。老年人的生活质量和社区联系较低,孤独感更强,但韧性成为一个强烈的主题。参与者认为,定期体育锻炼、通过技术与他人建立联系以及对事件和生活的哲学态度是应对身体距离的方法。社区中心需要积极继续在技术、课程和活动方面进行创新,并在新冠肺炎期间及以后与成员定期进行支持性沟通。

ABSTRACT Aging continues irrespective of event, location, and time; it is a process that does not stop or pause. The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has impacted the community of older adults as profoundly as any other community. However, communities are not homogenous and older adults as a community are different in their own ways (e.g., digital immigrant baby boomers who are generally not as tech-savvy as digital native millennials (Gen Y) and zoomers (Gen Z); generally have a higher risk of morbidity and mortality, lower physical strength and mobility, and greater vulnerability to public health crises as compared to their younger counterparts). As COVID-19 becomes endemic, it is an opportune time to reflect on the lessons learned from COVID-19 for healthy and seamless aging. This article sheds light on such lessons (i.e., implications for preparedness management and opportunity leveraging) emerging out of the latest articles published during COVID-19 in the current issue of Activities, Adaptation & Aging: Dignified and Purposeful Living for Older Adults.
与事件、地点和时间无关,衰老仍在继续;这是一个不会停止或暂停的过程。2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行对老年人社区的影响与其他社区一样深刻。然而,社区并不是同质的,老年人作为一个社区也有自己的不同之处(例如,数字移民婴儿潮一代,他们通常不像数字原生千禧一代(Y世代)和Z世代)那样精通技术;与年轻人相比,他们的发病率和死亡率一般较高,体力和活动能力较低,更容易受到公共卫生危机的影响)。随着COVID-19的流行,这是一个反思从COVID-19中吸取的教训,以实现健康和无缝老龄化的好时机。本文阐述了本期《活动、适应与老龄化:老年人有尊严和有目的的生活》在2019冠状病毒病期间发表的最新文章中得出的这些经验教训(即对准备管理和机会利用的影响)。
