Abstract:

Abstract Very few studies have compared oral health status between the US-born and foreign-born immigrant older adults. Using data collected among 430 Chinese older adults age 55+ residing in Hawai’i, we examined the association between immigrant status and oral health related quality of life (OHQoL) and the moderating role of resilience in linking the association. Controlling for some key covariates, our study results show that US-born Chinese immigrant older adults had better OHQoL than their foreign born counterparts. Factors such as higher level of education (graduate degree or higher), better self-reported health status and no significant tooth loss were related to better OHQoL. The association between immigrant status and OHQoL was moderated by resilience. Specially, resilience was positively and significantly associated with OHQoL among U.S.-born older adults but not among the foreign-born ones. Our findings indicate the importance of immigration and resilience in shaping oral health outcomes among older Chinese Americans.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTImmigration disrupts the bonding process in families. Maintaining close relationships with adult children can be an important protective factor for older immigrants' health and wellbeing. Quantitative research explaining such close relationships is rare. This study examined factors associated with close parent–child relationships in a purposive sample of 236 older Chinese immigrants in Los Angeles who provided information regarding 365 children. Two-level regression models were estimated to investigate factors contributing to cohesive parent–child relationships among these older adults. The findings showed that co-residence, a characteristic that distinguishes immigrant families from most non-immigrant families, was associated with lower parent–child relationship quality. Frequent contact was associated with closer relationships. While receiving instrumental and monetary support from children was associated with favourable ratings of relationships with children, providing such support to children was not related to parents' assessment of relationship quality. Parental perceptions of children being respectful was also associated with better relationship quality ratings. Overall, the findings demonstrate how family-related changes in the immigration context shape parent–child relationships in later life. Implications for future research and practice are provided.

Abstract:

e16507 Background: Immigration is increasing world-wide. We explored disparities in quality of life outcomes for immigrant (IM) versus Anglo-Australian (AA) cancer patients having anti-cancer treatment. Methods: In a cross-sectional design, cancer patients were recruited through outpatient Oncology clinics in New South Wales, Victoria, and the Northern Territory in Australia. IM participants, their parents and grand parents were born in a country where Chinese, Greek, or Arabic is spoken and spoke one of those languages. AAs were born in Australia and spoke English. All were diagnosed with cancer < 1 year previously. Questionnaires (completed in preferred language) included the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (anxiety/depression), FACT-G (quality of life) and the Supportive Care Needs Survey (unmet needs). Adjusted regression models comparing AA and IM groups included age, gender, socio-economic status, education, marital status, religion, time since diagnosis, and cancer type (colorectal, breast, lung, other). Results: There were 910 participants (response rate 57%). IM were similar to AA, except that IM were more likely to be married (76 vs 67 %, p = 0.01) and in the low and the highly educated groups (p < 0.0001). In adjusted analyses, IMs had clinically significant higher anxiety, greater unmet information and physical needs and lower quality of life than AAs (see table). The possible ranges are 0-21 for anxiety and depression, and 0-100 otherwise. Conclusions: In this hospital-based study with a high rate of advanced disease, immigrants with cancer experienced poorer quality of life outcomes, even after adjusting for socio-economic, demographic, and disease variables. Interventions are required to improve their experience of cancer care. Results highlight areas of unmet need that might be better addressed by the health system (particularly with regards to provision of information and meeting support and physical needs).

Abstract:

Abstract Planning for end-of-life (EOL) care in advance can enhance one’s quality of life at EOL and decrease caregiver stress and anxiety. Culturally sensitive educational programs are needed to educate the public and encourage advance planning. This paper describes the team’s efforts to develop and evaluate an EOL manual designed for Chinese immigrant caregivers. In 2019, one-on-one interviews were conducted with six Chinese caregivers and five Chinese geriatric social workers in Los Angeles County to obtain their feedback on manual improvement. Detailed suggestions included adding more content in the introduction to decrease fear for discussing death-related topics, such as using the concept of “life in four seasons”; having more case examples as how to initiate advance planning conversation with the older adult under different circumstances; adding content on how advance care planning and its documentation is legally protected, etc. Culturally sensitive advance planning community education is feasible among immigrant populations.

Abstract Using panel data of 2,604 Chinese older immigrants in Chicago over a two-year period, this study examined continuity and changes in intergenerational relationship patterns and their mental health implications. Latent transition analysis revealed five types of family relations: traditional, modified traditional, coresiding-unobligated, independent, and detached. Over the two years, about 43% of the respondents shifted to a different relationship type, with the most common changes being shifting into modified traditional or independent relations, or from detached relations. Controlling for baseline socio-demographic, acculturation, mental health variables, and variables representing life transitions over time, having detached relations was related to greater depressive symptoms in two years and having modified traditional relations was associated with better quality of life at the follow up. The findings revealed heterogeneity and fluidity of intergenerational relations among older immigrant populations and point to the important role of family relations in their well-being.

Abstract:

Abstract Purpose Older immigrant adults are reported to be more tolerant of abusive situations and less likely to seek help. This study aimed to examine the associations between social networks and help-seeking among U.S. Chinese older adults reported elder mistreatment (EM). Methods Data were from the Population Study of Chinese Elderly in Chicago (PINE). Social networks were assessed with network size, volume of contact, emotional closeness, proportion kin, proportion female, and proportion coresident. Informal/formal help-seeking (intentions and actual behaviors) were measured. Descriptive statistics and regression analyses were performed. Results A total of 450 participants reported EM. Participants had a mean age of 72.73 ± 8.03 years old (range 60-97). Participants had a mean of 3.29 (SD ± 1.31) network members, a mean of 3.24 (SD ± 0.67) emotional closeness, and average contacts of 6.62 (SD ± 1.10) times per year with network members. Smaller network size (p = .00) and less emotional closeness (p = .03) were associated with an increase in intentions of seeking help from formal sources. Compared to not seeking help, smaller network size (p = .04) and more emotional closes (p = .03) were associated with a higher likelihood to seek help from informal sources among U.S. Chinese older adults who reported any EM. Conclusion/implication: This study highlights the dynamic nature of social networks of help-seeking among this underserved population. Culturally tailored interventions are suggested to promote help-seeking through increasing strong ties and improving the quality of social networks for U.S. Chinese older immigrants with EM.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTBackground:Few current studies explore psychological well-being among older Chinese immigrants in Australia. The study addressed this gap and provided preliminary data on psychological well-being among this group. Four indicators, namely depression, anxiety, loneliness, and quality of life, were used to present a comprehensive picture of psychological well-being.Methods:Participants were two groups of community-dwelling older people, specifically 59 Chinese immigrants and 60 Australian-born people (median age=77 and 73, respectively). Data were collected through standardized interviews. The Geriatric Depression Scale, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the de Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale and the WHO Quality of Life questionnaire were used to measure depression, anxiety, loneliness, and quality of life, respectively.Results:Chinese participants’ median quality of life score was higher than the scale mid-point, indicating relatively high levels of quality of life. However, 10% exhibited symptoms of depression, 6% had symptoms of anxiety, and 49% felt lonely. Compared to Australian participants, Chinese participants reported poorer quality of life and higher levels of loneliness. Importantly, the difference in quality of life remained when the impact of socio-demographic factors was controlled for.Conclusions:This study was the first to use multiple indicators to explore psychological well-being among older Chinese immigrants in Australia. Its results suggest that their psychological well-being might be worse than that of Australian-born people when using loneliness and quality of life as indicators. In particular, loneliness is a common psychological problem among this group, and there is a need for public awareness of this problem.

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to explore dimensions of quality of life (QOL) perceived by Chinese Americans with disabilities with reference to improve vocational rehabilitation services to this group. Forty-three Chinese Americans/immigrants with physical disabilities participated in the study. A focus group technique was used to collect data. The participants identified the following nine dimensions of QOL: (1) contributing to society; (2) self-reliance; (3) enjoying the same rights as others; (4) not having to worry about food, clothing, housing, and transportation; (5) physical health; (6) emotional health; (7) relationships; (8) individual safety; and (9) stability and prosperity of the nation. Participants also defined six problems that prevented them from living a good life. Implications of the results for rehabilitation counselors and researchers are discussed in light of the impact of Chinese culture and immigration on the QOL of Chinese Americans/immigrants with disabilities.

Abstract:

Given the rapidly increasing number of foreign nationals migrating to Korea, this study investigates the relationship between cultural adaptation, tourist satisfaction, and quality of life among Chinese immigrants in Korea. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 344 Chinese immigrants in Korea who visited Gyeongju, where Korean World Heritage sites and modern tourist facilities coexist. A structural equation model was used to verify the hypothesis and indicated that cultural assimilation and cultural separation had a significant effect on tourist satisfaction, whereas cultural integration and cultural change did not have any statistically significant effect on tourist satisfaction. Additionally, tourist satisfaction had a significant effect on quality of life (in terms of subjective well-being and psychological well-being). The results of this study can function as a reference for improving Chinese immigrants’ cultural adaptation, tourist satisfaction, and quality of life.

Abstract:

Most immigrants have to adjust their lives to living in a new country, especially when moving from an Eastern to a Western society. Chinese immigrants may face multiple difficulties, including cultural differences and the English language barrier, which are a particularly problem for older immigrants. To overcome these difficulties, many Chinese immigrants either form new community groups or join those currently operating. Normally, Chinese community groups provide a wide range of activities for members. The literature (e.g., Diener, 1984; Cantor & Sanderson, 1999; Csikszentmihalyi, 1975) provides some understanding of the value for new immigrants in attending these group activities. Participating members report improved life satisfaction within new society and have a more positive outcome as a result of their involvement. However, the magnitude of the influence life satisfaction and well-being is not as clear. This research aimed to better understand the relationships between participation in community group activities and the life satisfaction and well-being of participating members. A quantitative research method was adopted for this study to investigate the relationships between the variables. The study utilised a questionnaire that focused on specific demographic characteristics of participants, a 5-item life satisfaction measure (Diener, Emmons, Larsen, & Griffin, 1985), a short 18-item measure (Ryff, 1989a) of the six dimensions of psychological well-being, and on other factors likely to impinge on life satisfaction and well-being. The 7-point agreement scale asked participants the extent to which they agreed or disagreed with the statements. The questionnaire was offered to participants in both English and Chinese. Questionnaires were completed by 600 Chinese-speaking immigrants from Taiwan, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and Singapore who were participants in educational activities and/or other activities offered through 21 different Chinese community groups in Brisbane. Four hundred took part in 20 different educational group activities, and 200 in 25 different non-educational group activities. Most participants were female, and approximately two thirds were over 50 years of age. Using AMOS, a number of structural equations models (SEMs) were tested to investigate the conceptually proposed links between the various variables. This study supports other literature, finding that both educational and general activities provided by the community groups positively influence the participating members' life satisfaction and feelings of well-being. The majority of participants in this study reported that they considered participating in community group educational activities (74.2% agreed), and general activities (66.6%), had the most impact on their life satisfaction and well-being. Most participants (70%) found that community group activities, both educational and general, were interesting. However, only around 53% of them claimed to have achieved their goals in these activities. The findings of this study indicate the complexity of the influences on life satisfaction and well-being levels facing this cohort of Chinese immigrants. Although results suggest that demographic variables such as year of migration and employment status have a greater influence on life satisfaction and well-being than educational activities and general activities, the outcomes of this study support the conclusion that the participating members have benefited from the variety of programs offered by Chinese community groups.

Abstract:

This research examines the relationship between food experience and Elderly Chinese Immigrants (ECIs)' cultural transition in Australia. Field studies investigated ECIs' cultural experience of food, and how they react to the cultural differences in food-related activities. Results indicate that food experience mediates ECIs' cultural transitions between ECIs' home country cultural background and their host country context. Such findings lead to the development of the Food Experience Mediated Adaptation Framework, which illustrates ECIs' cultural transition and can be used as a guide for future design practices. This research, therefore, contributes to knowledge in the experience design field.

Abstract:

Racism and sexism pervaded American society during the nineteenth century, creating unusual disadvantaged conditions for Chinese immigrant women. As a weak minority in an alien and often hostile environment and as a subordinate sex in a sexist society, Chinese women suffered from double oppression of racism and sexism. In addition, the Chinese cultural values of women's passivity and submission existed within Chinese communities in America, and affected the lives of these immigrant women. This work uses government document, historical statistics, accounts from newspapers and literature to examine the life experiences of Chinese immigrant women and American attitudes towards them, and to analyze the roots of the oppression of racism and sexism.
