Download or read book El Impacto del Maltrato contra Envejecidos en el Componente Físico, Emocional y Social desde la Percepción de Cinco Profesionales de la Salud written by Grisel M. Maisonet Amador M. S. W. and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este trabajo de investigación procura abarcar el impacto físico, social y emocional que tiene el maltrato en personas envejecidas desde la perspectiva de cinco profesionales de la salud que hayan trabajado e intervenido con esta población por un tiempo mínimo de dos (2) años. Para llevar a cabo este estudio se utilizó un método cualitativo. Los participantes del estudio fueron un total de cinco profesionales de la salud, de ambos géneros que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión establecidos por la investigadora. Se desarrolló una guía de preguntas abiertas a seguir durante la entrevista semi-estructurada grabada. El guía de preguntas consistió de un total de 22 preguntas dividas en (3) partes (Apéndice B). Se le leyó y se le entregó una hoja de consentimiento y confidencialidad (Apéndice A). A través de estas cinco entrevistas, se logró obtener la percepción y experiencia de estos profesionales de la salud que hayan trabajando e interviniendo con personas envejecidas sobrevivientes de maltrato. Se identificó la teoría de la actividad y satisfacción de la vida como el marco de referencia. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran la gran necesidad que existe para sensibilizarnos y aumentar la educación del proceso de envejecimiento para poder identificar e intervenir en casos de maltrato de nuestra población envejecida. He llegado a la conclusión, que es urgente entender el proceso del envejecimiento, las necesidades y el valor de esta etapa de la vida. Dediquemos nuestro tiempo y esfuerzo para compartir nuestra atención, cariño y afecto con nuestros envejecidos que tanto ellos también dieron y aportaron en nuestra crianza y desarrollo.

Download or read book Digital Ageism written by Andrea Rosales and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-05 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology contributes to creating awareness on how digital ageism operates in relation to the widely spread symbolic representations of old and young age around digital technologies, the (lack of) representation of diverse older individuals in the design, development, and marketing of digital technologies and in the actual algorithms and datasets that constitute them. It also shows how individuals and institutions deal with digital ageism in everyday life. In the past decades, digital technologies permeated most aspects of everyday life. With a focus on how age is represented and experienced in relation to digital technologies leading to digital ageism, digitalisation’s reinforcement of spirals of exclusion and loss of autonomy of some collectives is explored, when it could be natural for a great part of society and represent a sort of improvement. The book addresses social science students and scholars interested in everyday digital technologies, society and the power struggles about it, providing insights from different parts of the globe. By using different methods and touching upon different aspects of digital ageism and how it plays out in contemporary connected data societies, this volume will raise awareness, challenge power, initiate discussions and spur further research into this field.

Book Synopsis Psicología de la vejez by : Rocío Fernández-Ballesteros
Download or read book Psicología de la vejez written by Rocío Fernández-Ballesteros and published by . This book was released on 2008-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lo largo del siglo xx, las coordenadas sociodemográficas de la población española, europea y mundial se modificaron extraordinariamente, con repercusiones importantes en la investigación en torno a la vejez. Esa tendencia continúa; así, si a principios del siglo xx los niños y adolescentes ocupaban un lugar de especial relevancia para la psicología, en el siglo xxi las personas mayores tienen un interés prioritario. El II Plan Internacional sobre Envejecimiento aprobado por las Naciones Unidas establece como uno de los objetivos primordiales para los gobiernos y los agentes sociales la formación de profesionales con el propósito de promover la salud y el bienestar a lo largo de todo el ciclo vital. Asimismo, como iniciativa del Colegio de Psicólogos de España, la Federación Europea de Asociaciones de Psicólogos (EFPA) ha establecido una serie de recomendaciones para que los países miembros se ocupen de la formación del psicólogo en el ámbito de la vejez, el envejecimiento y las personas mayores, y promuevan una formación especializada en esta materia. Esta obra presenta aportaciones de profesionales que trabajan con personas mayores en la disciplina de la psicogerontología aplicada. En ella se realiza una síntesis de los conocimientos básicos de la psicología de la vejez y el envejecimiento, así como de las herramientas de evaluación y tratamiento basadas en la evidencia empírica, en múltiples áreas de intervención: desde la mejora de la memoria y la intervención en demencias a la promoción del envejecimiento activo. Cada autor aporta sus conocimientos y experiencias con el fin de transmitir competencias a psicólogos que deseen especializarse en esta novedosa área.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes how assistive technology can help handicapped, elderly and acutely sick people to manage their daily lives better and stay safe in the home. It discusses how safety is understood from an ethical, technical and social perspective, and offers examples of the problems that users, their helpers and professional carers have with assistive technology in everyday situations. The book provides insights from user-centred research and uses photographs to illustrate the main topic: how users and technology can work together to ensure safety.

It provides an overview of the existing technology, examines ways to test its effectiveness from the point of view of users, health professionals and researchers from different fields (architecture, education, engineering, facility management, medicine, nursing, occupational therapy, rehabilitative medicine, physiotherapy, social science and speech therapy), and lists useful addresses, websites and literature
Book Synopsis Active Aging by : Rocío Fernández-Ballesteros
Download or read book Active Aging written by Rocío Fernández-Ballesteros and published by Hogrefe Publishing GmbH. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aging well and continuing to be active are often regarded as THE goals in life, from individual, family, community, and population perspectives. This implies good health and physical fitness, good cognitive and positive emotional-motivational functioning, and social participation and engagement.Increasing life expectancy by means of biomedical advances is not on its own enough, however. Research shows that an individual's psychological condition contributes to their quality of life and well-being in old age – and that behavioral and psychological interventions can also prevent illness, improve cognitive and physical fitness, and increase positive emotional functioning and social participation.This book shows how psychologists and psychological science as a whole can face the challenge of promoting optimal and active aging in a society that is growing ever older.
