Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "intergenerational programming concept," now garnering increased interest in America, has been applied to Japanese society as a strategy for maintaining intergenerational and cultural continuity in the face of social and demographic changes. While Japan is known for its enduring and resilient family structure which provides support for people of all ages, the country's growing aged population, combined with a trend away from three-generation families and changing social values, exposes a need for new mechanisms beyond the family to promote intergenerational communication, support, and cultural continuity. The authors identify a rich geographically diverse set of intergenerational programs and activities that serve a wide range of human and community development objectives. Beyond promoting intergenerational understanding among participants, these initiatives function to help people to pursue their educational objectives, arts and recreation interests, desired states of health and welfare, environmental preservation and community development goals, and religious and spiritual well-being. Intergenerational endeavors constitute an integral approach for supplementing familial support systems and maintaining social cohesion in Japan as it enters the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Social Isolation and Loneliness in Older Adults by : National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine
Download or read book Social Isolation and Loneliness in Older Adults written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2020-05-14 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social isolation and loneliness are serious yet underappreciated public health risks that affect a significant portion of the older adult population. Approximately one-quarter of community-dwelling Americans aged 65 and older are considered to be socially isolated, and a significant proportion of adults in the United States report feeling lonely. People who are 50 years of age or older are more likely to experience many of the risk factors that can cause or exacerbate social isolation or loneliness, such as living alone, the loss of family or friends, chronic illness, and sensory impairments. Over a life course, social isolation and loneliness may be episodic or chronic, depending upon an individual's circumstances and perceptions. A substantial body of evidence demonstrates that social isolation presents a major risk for premature mortality, comparable to other risk factors such as high blood pressure, smoking, or obesity. As older adults are particularly high-volume and high-frequency users of the health care system, there is an opportunity for health care professionals to identify, prevent, and mitigate the adverse health impacts of social isolation and loneliness in older adults. Social Isolation and Loneliness in Older Adults summarizes the evidence base and explores how social isolation and loneliness affect health and quality of life in adults aged 50 and older, particularly among low income, underserved, and vulnerable populations. This report makes recommendations specifically for clinical settings of health care to identify those who suffer the resultant negative health impacts of social isolation and loneliness and target interventions to improve their social conditions. Social Isolation and Loneliness in Older Adults considers clinical tools and methodologies, better education and training for the health care workforce, and dissemination and implementation that will be important for translating research into practice, especially as the evidence base for effective interventions continues to flourish.

Book excerpt: Intergenerational programs have become popular in recent years as benefits to both adults and children have been identified. Shared site intergenerational programs, such as adult and child daycare centers, cultivate meaningful relationships between generations while meeting the needs of adults, children, and their caregivers. As the older population continues to grow rapidly, shared site intergenerational programs may prove to be an extremely rewarding alternative to institutionalized care. Because the intergenerational field is relatively young, there is a need for research demonstrating older adults' perceptions of intergenerational relationships and programs. In the following study, two groups of older adults participating in two intergenerational programs in Harrisonburg, Virginia, were surveyed to determine their perceptions of intergenerational relationships and programming, as well as their perceived benefits from participating in intergenerational activities. One group of older adults interacts with children at an adult and child daycare center, while the other group of older adults meets with college students at a weekly program. Survey responses from both groups demonstrated an overall positive perception of intergenerational relationships and programs. Multiple benefits from these interactions were also identified.

Book Synopsis Studies in Gerontology by : K. L. Sharma
Download or read book Studies in Gerontology written by K. L. Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The changing structures of societies, patterns of family interdependence, family and kin structures, demographic, social and economic trends have all affected the relationship between generations across the world. Such changes are going to have tremendous implications for contemporary and future societies. The most important issue is the extent of sharing of beliefs about social obligations and changes therein across and within generations. Although such issues related to intergenerational relationships are gradually attracting academic and non-academic interest, these have yet not been addressed systematically in research. The 23 papers in the present volume (both empirical studies and review articles), apart from highlighting existing patterns and perceptions of intergenerational relationships from Indian and Western perspectives, also focus on interventions aimed at strengthening intergenerational relations. The book will prove to be a valuable source material for sociologists, psychologists, gerontologists, social work practitioners and NGOs working in this field."

Download or read book Living Longer written by Eugenia Scabini and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Active seniors are given increasing attention in Italy and Europe. Active aging involves both an individual and a social dimension. Choosing to play an active role even in later life is, first of all, a subjective option, that calls into play the full range of physical, psychological, relational, ethical resources of the individual. This option acquires a specific social relevance because, through activity, it is possible for the older person to experience an inter-subjective and prosocial dimension, crucial to the pursuit of a successful social role. Through the presentation of findings from a quantitative research carried out in Italy and similar analysis at European level, the book aims to provide a comprehensive reflection on this phenomenon, in particular in terms of intergenerational exchanges, well-being and life satisfaction, use of multimedia technologies, prosocial behaviors and volunteering. This book is for students and professionals interested in intergenerational exchanges, well-being, personal and intersubjective satisfaction, multimedia technologies, prosocial behaviors, volunteering in active ageing. This volume is the partial translation of "L'allungamento della vita. Una risorsa per la famiglia, un'opportunit per la societ , Eugenia Scabini e Giovanna Rossi (a cura di), Studi interdisciplinari sulla famiglia, 28, Vita e Pensiero, Milano, Italia, 2016."
