摘要
COVID-19 大流行重新激发了人们对代际书信和电子邮件写作的兴趣。有证据表明,包括写信在内的表达性写作有很多好处,包括提高识字率和幸福感,还能促进与他人的深层联系。本范围界定综述概述了关于不同年龄段人群书信和电子邮件写作的现有研究。在从 Scopus、CINAHL、PsycINFO、MEDLINE、Academic Search Premier 和 Web of Science 检索到的 471 篇文章中,有 17 项研究符合纳入标准,本综述对其进行了严格评估和综合。这些研究根据其既定目标和结果分为两个主题:(a) 探讨观念变化的研究;(b) 与技能发展和纽带有关的研究。研究结果表明,代际书信写作者可以获得一系列益处,包括对另一年龄组的人有更积极的看法、提高写作技巧和学科知识,以及形成代际记忆和纽带。综述还强调了当前研究的一些局限性,并为写作研究、代际研究和老年教育学领域的未来研究提出了建议。
The Current Landscape of Studies Involving Intergenerational Letter and Email Writing: A Systematic Scoping Review and Textual Narrative Synthesis
The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a renewed interest in intergenerational letter and email writing. Evidence shows that expressive writing, including letter writing, has a number of benefits including improved literacy and perceived well-being, and it can also facilitate a deep connection with another person. This scoping review provides an overview of the existing research on letter and email writing between different age cohorts. Of the 471 articles retrieved from Scopus, CINAHL, PsycINFO, MEDLINE, Academic Search Premier, and Web of Science, 17 studies met the inclusion criteria and were critically appraised and synthesized in this review. The studies were grouped into two themes according to their stated aims and outcomes: (a) studies exploring changes in perceptions, and (b) studies relating to skills development and bonds. The results showed a range of benefits for intergenerational letter writers, from more positive perceptions of the other age group, through improved writing skills and subject knowledge, to forming intergenerational memories and bonds. The review also highlights some of the limitations of the current research and formulates recommendations for future studies in the fields of writing studies, intergenerational research, and educational gerontology.
