Abstract:
On the basis of the analysis of elderly people’s tourist activity the factors determining the organization of tourist activity have been revealed. The psychological features of elderly tourists, causing their consumer behavior, both in the process of purchasing tourist permits, and the General attitude of the consumer to tourism have been considered. It has been established that stereotypes, the environment of tourist products and the emotional sphere of the elderly tourist are the main factors, on the basis of which the decision on travel or refusal to travel is made. The model of interaction process of psychological features of elderly tourists with stages of tourist activity has been presented. The dependence between the primary experience of tourism and the subsequent recreational needs refl cts the importance of studying the psychology of elderly tourists to ensure the frequency of consumption of tourist products.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is divided into 3 parts:Part 1 is a systematic literature review entitled ‘Living Positively with Dementia’. The notion that people living with dementia can have positive experiences in spite of - or even because of - their illness remains widely disputed. In light of this controversy and the potential conceptual and clinical importance of documenting the subjective experience of dementia in all its variations, this review examines the current research evidence relating to positive lived experience in dementia. The review uncovered 63 studies containing evidence of positive experiences reported by people living with dementia. The methodological quality of the studies is evaluated along with consideration of how researchers have managed such reports. The findings of the review suggest that people with dementia are capable of experiencing positive emotions, and furthermore that dementia can uncover strengths in people, such as hope; faith; resilience; wisdom; altruism; humor; optimism; perseverance; and courage.Part 2 is an empirical study which investigates one of the positive constructs highlighted by the review - hope. The paper examines the subjective experience of hope in older people with early-stage dementia and explores factors that facilitate or hinder hopefulness in this population. Ten participants were each interviewed and interpretative phenomenological analysis was used to identify themes within their accounts. The study considers how hopefulness in dementia compares with existing definitions of hope and the existing literature on age; dependency; and coping, in order to provide a thematic framework for understanding how hope may support individuals with dementia to maintain their quality of life, and to consider the scope for hope-fostering strategies.Part 3 consists of the appendixes relating to the research, including a reflective statement on the process of carrying out the research. The statement includes reflection on all aspects of research from planning to carrying out the research project.

Abstract:
Attitudes toward the elderly were examined in three generations through analysis of media use, gender, contact with elderly, age, factual knowledge about aging, and parental influence on attitude formation. The results revealed that age, factual knowledge, perceived ageism in mass media and parental influence were significantly related to attitude toward the elderly.

Hawthorne, Oliver. "Understanding the social support of older lesbian and gay people." Thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University, 2017. http://create.canterbury.ac.uk/16425/.

Full text
Abstract:
Lesbian and gay people are more likely to experience long-term health problems and less likely to have relationships that typically provide informal care. Whilst some researchers have suggested that care is provided by family-of-choice relationships (i.e. a network of very close friendships), there has been no research looking at what determines the organisation of care. Grounded theory was used to explore what determines the organisation of informal care for older lesbian and gay people with health problems. Fourteen mid-later life lesbian and gay people were interviewed who had experience of providing/receiving care, or running groups for these populations. Findings suggest that this population experience losses to their network related to their sexuality as well as due to ageing and the impact of their health problem. This means that except for those living with others (partners, ex-partners or housemates), people often experience their care needs being “left to” them. In response, people seek connections or alternatives to support. Support arrangements developed for those living alone tends to be distributed across multiple people. Strategies and attitudes developed from managing being lesbian or gay influence choices and resiliencies in navigating these challenges. The results suggest that older lesbian and gay people have unique strengths and challenges in accessing care in the context of long-term conditions. Recommendations for research and practice are made, including the need for developing ways of working with distributed care networks and suggestions for supporting clients to use resiliencies developed from experiences of being lesbian and gay.

McCarty, Lisa. "Evaluating the quality of care within residential services for older people." Thesis, University of Hull, 2001. http://hydra.hull.ac.uk/resources/hull:8429.

Full text
Abstract:
The quality of care within residential services for older people has been a source of concern within health and social care for some time. Several attempts have been made to develop a means of assessing the quality of care; however, the nature and quality of these varies enormously. The Quest process of evaluation, which was designed as a means of assessing service quality according to the structure and process of care, is presented as a possible means of improving upon current practice. The Quest system incorporates four measures: the Service Profile, the Support Questionnaire, the Observation Profile and the Occupational Stress Indicator. The Service Profile is essentially descriptive in nature, and the Occupational Stress Indicator is a published, standardised measure. The remaining Quest measures, however, were only recently developed and therefore lack evidence in support of their psychometric properties. The present study was designed to assess the validity and reliability of the Quest system within residential services for older people. The exploration of validity and reliability took several forms, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative methodologies. The overall findings of the discussion group and assessment of face validity advocated the credibility of the dimensions of support that underpin the Quest system. With regards to reliability, the findings supported the reliability of the Observation Profile but identified that further work was needed to ascertain the reliability of the Support Questionnaire. Issues relevant to the interpretation of the results were discussed along with the reasons why a number of formal assessments of validity could not be made. Further work to explore the psychometric properties of the Quest system was recommended before it can be confidently applied to residential services for older people.

Full text
Abstract:
This portfolio thesis consists of three parts: a systematic literature review, an empirical paper and a set of appendices. Part one is a systematic literature review which synthesises the published qualitative literature investigating resilience in older people living with chronic illness. The review aims to explore the role that resilience plays in ageing with a chronic physical illness, and how resilience is experienced by this group of people. The synthesis resulted in eight sub-themes subsumed under three super-ordinate themes. Super-ordinate themes are ‘the resilient mindset’, ‘engaging with others’ and ‘continuity in life’. The strength of the empirical evidence is evaluated, and findings are discussed in terms of their implications for future research and clinical practice. Part two is an empirical paper investigating narratives of resilience in older people who are living with a diagnosis of dementia. This qualitative study utilised a narrative approach to collect and analyse stories from eight older people around how they have responded to changes and challenges since receiving their dementia diagnosis. The stories contained a number of phases, and resilience emerged as an on-going process stimulated by people’s sense of identity, agency, connection and positive outlook on life. Clinical and research implications are discussed. Part three consists of a set of appendices which relate to both the systematic literature review and the empirical paper. This also includes a reflective account of the research process and an epistemological statement.

Abstract:
Abstract An interest in and perspective on lifespan development is essential for anyone working with older adults. How people have adapted through the phases of their lives and in the context of their cultural history often makes assessment and intervention with older people a rewarding experience. Inevitably the clinical psychologist is also faced with issues of personal reflection and development as they lead their own lives towards their own old age, and so need to be mindful of how this contributes to the work they do. They also need to be aware of their own preconceptions. The principles and practices of therapeutic work with adults certainly apply, and can be adapted for an older client group quite easily. However, ageist attitudes have continued to abound in society, many of which go unnoticed or are taken as fact. Samuel Johnson noted in the eighteenth century that there is a wicked inclination in most people to suppose an old man decayed in his intellect. If a young or middle-aged man, when leaving a company, does not recollect where he laid his hat, it is nothing: but if the same inattention is discovered in an old man, people will shrug their shoulders and say ‘his memory is going ‘. The broad impact of similar attitudes is evidenced today in The Times newspaper, which has invented an anti-ageist column ‘ Not Dead Yet ‘ to challenge in a humorous way the many negative remarks made about people as they age in our society.

Full text
Abstract:
The relative income hypothesis predicts poorer health in societies with greater income inequality, yet the psychological mechanisms that explain this association are not clear to date. This study tests the hypothesis that perceived age discrimination acts as a mediator in the inequality-health nexus for people who categorize themselves as old. It is expected that the detrimental mediating effect of perceived age discrimination does not occur for those who categorize themselves as young, since their low status is only temporary until they move to the higher status middle-aged group. A cross-sectional multilevel analysis of the 2008/09 European Social Survey (ESS, Round 4) was conducted. A subsample of respondents who perceive themselves as belonging to the old (N = 10,650) or young age group (N = 15,635) was analysed. The Gini coefficient was used to represent national inequalities in income in each of the 28 ESS countries. Mediation analyses within the multilevel structural equation modelling paradigm indicate that perceived age discrimination fully mediates the associations between income inequality and self-rated health for people who categorize themselves as old, but not as young. Our findings illustrate the importance of the socio-economic context as well as the permeability of group boundaries in the area of perceived discrimination and well-being.
