Abstract (sommario):

We contribute to the happiness literature by analyzing the causal relationship between sports and happiness. Using longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP), we find a positive correlation between sports participation and reported life satisfaction. This relationship is stronger at younger and older ages than in middle age, and for people in bad health compared to those in average health. We further provide evidence for both causal directions. It turns out that the causal impact of engaging in sports on happiness is about four times higher than the effect of happiness on engaging in sports.

Abstract (sommario):

This study was designed to investigate the relationship between community sport participation and health promotion among Chinese older adults. This study used a descriptive comparative research design and a correlational research design. The population of this study is the elderly in Guangxi Xinxingyuan community, which has a total of 3847 elderly residents. The selected 300 older adults are survey to collect data relate to community sport participation and health promotion. The study concluded that the individuals' gender, age and education level have a significant impact on their community sport participation and health and well-being. The attractiveness and accessibility of community sports activities need to be improved to stimulate active participation and increase the level of community sports participation among older adults. Individual differences should be taken into account when designing relevant policies and programs, so as to provide customized services and support for different groups. The health and well-being of older people needs urgent attention and improvement, especially in terms of physical health, mental health and quality of life. The impact of individual characteristics on health and well-being deserves our attention, and it is crucial to provide customized health management solutions for different groups. Community sports activities play an important role in promoting the health and well-being of older people, and related activities should be further promoted and strengthened. In response to the challenges of community sport participation for older persons, comprehensive policies and measures are needed to address these issues and provide a better environment and support for older persons to participate in sport.

Abstract (sommario):

Physical activity among the older population of Bulgaria is a matter related to health prevention, improving the quality of life and recovery after illness. In this work, we present data from a study held with people aged 65-80 years, citizens of Sofia city. Our goal was to determine the place of physical exercise in their daily lives and the role of sports teacher for the formation of motivation in them for leading an active lifestyle. The analysis shows lack of information on the wide variety of motor activities suitable for this age group as well as low level of motivation for sport activities. We conclude that it is necessary to provide sources of information to the people of the third age, which will educate them about the benefits of the active way of life and what possibilities for access to various sports activities are there. Medium intensity workout or a daily walk outdoors would help not only to improve their fitness level but also to maintain the necessary mental health and social activity.

Abstract (sommario):

In the context of population aging, we have witnessed an increased interest in studying the participation of older persons in cultural and sport activities. The aim of this paper is to identify the participation rate in cultural and sports activities among Romanian older adults and the sociodemographics/behavioral variables that correlate with the participation rate in cultural and sports activities. In order to answer our research questions, we employed a questionnaire-based survey, and we used a nationally representative sample. Results point to low participation in both cultural and sports activities. Gender, residence, education, income, degree of mobility, internet connection, and availability of financial resources are significant variables that correlate with the engagement of older people in cultural and sports activities. Our study could serve as a base for concrete policy measures in the field of health and social inclusion of older persons.

Abstract (sommario):

In Western society competing in physically demanding sport is not considered the domain of older people. For the majority of the twentieth century older people were stereotyped as frail, socially withdrawn and dependent on health and social welfare systems. Competitive athletes on the other hand are commonly viewed as being young, strong, aggressive, physically competent and independent. Although today’s older generation are encouraged to be physically active, society does not recognise serious competition or physically intense sports as age-appropriate activities for them. If older people choose to participate in sport they are expected to be doing it to have fun, make friends and keep fit. The growing leisure phenomenon of older athletes who compete to win, achieve a personal best, break world records or push their bodies to the limit presents a challenge to these orthodoxies. The purpose of this thesis is to explain why competing in physically demanding sport is significant to some older people given the accepted view that it is not their domain. In particular, the thesis explores the multiple ways in which a group of older people negotiate conflicting discourses of both sport and ageing, as well as the contradiction between their identity as an athlete and their ageing bodies, as they talk about and experience competing in physically strenuous individual and team sports. The key themes through which this negotiation process is played out relate to friendship and fun, competition, youthfulness, and the ageing body. It is revealed that the process of competing in sport can be simultaneously empowering and problematic at both the individual and social levels. The thesis draws on insights from post-structural theories of resistance and empowerment, traditional and postmodern understandings of identity management in later life, and life-stage theories to interpret the phenomenon of older people competing in physically demanding sport. To achieve the above aims, a qualitative study exploring the experiences of a group of Masters athletes aged over 55 years who regularly compete in physically strenuous individual or team sports was undertaken. It was found that despite age-appropriate norms, competition is significant to many of the participants. Study participants embrace the ideologies and practices of competitive sport and use them to define ageing in terms of youthfulness, physical ability and personal empowerment. Simultaneously however, a denial of, or desperate resistance to, the physical ageing process accompanies this feeling of empowerment. The participants in this study were not only competing in sport, but also "competing for life". It is argued that a multi-faceted and conflicting interplay of resistance and conformity, empowerment and denial, identity and the ageing body is embedded in the phenomenon of older people competing in physically demanding sport. These contradictory findings expose alternative ways of understanding sport, competition, ageing and older people in the West and raise many questions requiring further investigation. The study also points to potential applications of these findings to policy-making and provision of leisure services for older people.

Abstract (sommario):

Introduction: Resilience is an important trait and mechanism for older adults facing adversity in their later life. Physical activity has been established as an important determinant of mental health among older adults, in which relationship of resilience may play a mediating role. In order to examine the relationships among resilience, physical activity, and mental health in older adults, the current project is designed to conduct three studies. Study-1 aims to use qualitative method to identify the characteristics that contribute to resilience in a group of community-dwelling older adults in Hong Kong. Study-2 aims to develop and validate an age-specific resilience scale, named as "Resilience Scale for Chinese Older Adults (RSCOA)". Study-3 aims to test a model in which physical activity is hypothesized to influence mental health in path mediated by resilience. Methods: Twenty-five Chinese older adults (2 males, 23 females) aged 69 to 100 years (M=80.00, SD=39.08) were included in Study-1. Interviews were conducted to collect information about the adverse events in their lives, as well as their attitudes towards adversity and the beliefs underlying their approaches to overcoming adversity. The transcripts were analysed using qualitative content analysis. In Study-2, a sequential approach was used to develop the RSCOA in three stages. In stage 1, scale candidate items were generated and initial content validity of the RSCOA were explored. In stage 2, the factorial structure of the RSCOA was extracted using exploratory factor analysis. In stage 3, exploratory structural equation modeling was conducted to test the structure. The reliability and validity of the RSCOA were also examined. In Study-3, cross-sectional data was collected from a sample of 293 Chinese older adults [60 males, 233 females; age from 65 to 95 years old (M=76.58, SD=7.02)] from eight community senior centres located in three districts in Hong Kong. Correlation analyses were performed and path analysis was employed to assess the associations among physical activity, resilience and mental health variables. Results: In Study-1, 7 themes were emerged from the interviews: 1). Equanimity- the realisation that life has both joys and sorrows. 2). Positive attitudes towards life. 3). Meaningfulness- the realisation that life has a purpose and is full of hope. 4). Self-reliance- a belief in one's capabilities and the realisation that each person's life path is unique. 5). Social support- which comes from family and friends, health care professionals, staff in the senior centres and others' appraisal. 6). Environmental support- which includes the support from neighbours, community senior centres and government. 7). Spirituality and faith- which can take the form of a belief in destiny, gratitude or religious faith. For the scale development and validation, a pool of 70 candidate items for RSCOA was established with good content validity in stage 1. In stage 2, seven factors, namely perseverance, self-reliance, spirituality, social support, living in the moment, environmental support, and meaningfulness, reflecting internal, external and existential dimensions, were identified and reflected in 27 items in the construct of resilience. In stage 3, the 27-item RSCOA was further examined, by which 3 items were deleted to achieve acceptable internal consistency (α= 0.87) and good concurrent as well as construct validities, and finally a 24-item RSCOA was confirmed. The measurement model displayed satisfactory model fit and proven invariant across gender. Building on the three path models, it was found that significant mediation effects of resilience on the relations from physical activity to depression (β =-.54, p=.002), from physical activity to loneliness (β=-.25, p=.005), as well as from physical activity to psychological well-being (β=.37, p=.008). In sum, the results confirmed that resilience mediates relationship from physical activity to mental health among the older adults. Conclusion: The qualitative analysis found that resilience of the Hong Kong older adults is characterised by internal, external and existential factors. A reliable and valid age-specific instrument for measurement of resilience in Chinese older people was developed. Older adults who are more physically active reported greater psychological well-being and less mental health problems, and the effects were mediated by resilience. The results may be useful for developing interventions that aim at assisting older adults to enhance the positive experiences and mental health in their lives.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Proprioception is generally defined as the sense of position and movement of the limbs. The sense arises through activity in sensory neurons located in skin, muscles and joint tissues. Joint proprioception provides the neurological feedback needed for the control of muscle actions, and serves as protection against excessive strain on passive joints. The rationale for this study was that if proprioception improves, functional balance will improve. Improvements in functional balance will contribute to improvements in functional skills. An improvement in functional skills can decrease dependence on others, which in turn w\could increase quality of life. The objective of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a proprioceptive training programme, using only low technology apparatus, on the proprioception and functional balance of older adults. Twenty-five older adults (M = 73.1 years) were assigned to either a control (n = 10) or intervention group (n = 15). The Berg Balance Scale was used for assessment of the functional balance of the participants, while the Harrison’s Recovery Test was used to assess proprioception. The intervention group was placed on an eight-week proprioceptive training programme consisting of three, twenty-minute sessions a week. Using paired and unpaired t-tests for the statistical analysis, significant improvements were observed in the intervention group for both proprioception and functional balance (p<0.05). It was concluded that the proprioception and functional balance of older adults could be significantly improved with a proprioceptive programme using only low technology apparatus.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Propriosepsie kan gedefinieer word as die liggaam se vermoë om die posisie en die beweging van die afsonderlike liggaamsdele waar te neem. Dit vind plaas deur die registrering van die aktiwiteit van sensoriese neurone wat in die vel, spiere en die sagte weefsel van die gewrigte is. Die neurologiese terugvoer wat noodsaaklik is vir die doeltreffende beheer van spieraksies, is afkomstig van die proprioreseptore in die gewrigte. Dit is as gevolg van hierdie neurologiese terugvoer, dat propriosepsie dien as beskermingsmeganisme teen oormatige stremming op die liggaam se gewrigte. Die beginsel van hierdie studie was dat as propriosepsie verbeter, dit sal lei tot verbeteringe in funksionele balans. Verbetering in funksionele balans sal weer lei tot verbeteringe in funksionele vaardighede. Dit is heel moontlik dat verbetering in funksionele vaardighede ‘n persoon minder afhanklik sal maak van ander. Hoe meer onafhanklik ‘n mens van ander is hoe beter is jou lewenskwaliteit, aangesien jy baie meer dinge kan ervaar en doen. Die doel van hierdie studie was om vas te stel of ‘n propriosepsie inoefenings program, wat slegs van lae tegnologiese apparaat gebruik maak, suksesvol gebruik kan word om die propriosepsie en ook die funksionele balans van ouer volwassenes te verbeter. Vyfen- twintig ouer volwassenes (M = 73.1 jaar) het deelgeneem aan die studie en was òf deel van die kontrole group (n = 10) òf van die oefen groep (n = 15). Funksionele balans is gemeet deur van die “Berg Balance Scale” gebruik te maak, terwyl die “Harrison’s Recovery Test” gebruik is om propriosepsie te meet. Die oefengroup het deelgeneem aan ‘n propriosepsie oefenprogram wat bestaan het uit drie, oefensessies van twintig minute elk vir ag weke. Gepaarde en ongepaarde t-toetse is gebruik gedurende die statistiese analise. Die resultate was statisties betekenisvol vir beide die propriosepsie en die funksionele balans van die oefen groep (p<0.05). Die studie het getoon dat die propriosepsie en funksionele balans van ouer volwassenes statisties betekenisvol verbeter kan word deur middel van ‘n inoefeningsprogram vir die verbetering van propriosepsie waar slegs van lae tegnologiese apparaat gebruik maak word.

Abstract (sommario):

To achieve sports results, it is necessary to use specialized tools and unique methods of teaching the game of volleyball. This actualizes the search for effective means of physical, technical, and tactical training. The article presents a set of tools aimed at developing technical and tactical actions of schoolchildren aged 11–12 years. The complex developed by us includes exercises aimed at technical and tactical training of volleyball players. These exercises are close to the game conditions and have an emotional character. A set of exercises helps to consolidate and control the acquired skills, points out mistakes and gaps not only in the physical but also in the tactical and technical training of volleyball players aged 11–12 years.

Abstract (sommario):

ABSTRACT The digital age and advances in technology are introducing a new attitude to medical care, bringing about significant technologies such as exergames, enhancing the promotion of active and healthy aging. This study aimed to investigate possible differences in perceived quality of life factors between older adults participating in traditional dance and physical training using new technologies, comparing them with sedentary people (control group). The study involved 84 women, with an average age of 67.6 years from Day Care Centers of the Municipality of Thessaloniki, Greece. The program duration was six months (24 weeks) with a frequency of twice a week and each session lasted 75 minutes. An evaluation was performed both before and after the end of the interventions with specialized tools that assess the physical status and functional capacity of the individuals, as well as questionnaires that assess the quality of life indicators. Regarding the usability of the systems, integrated the System Usability Scale (SUS). Statistical analysis was performed with the statistical package SPSS 26. According to the results, the intervention groups compared to the initial measurement showed a statistically significant improvement in variables that assess strength, balance, aerobic capacity, gait to avoid falls, stress, depression, and quality of life in general, in comparison with the control group (p ≤ .05). The SUS scores ranged around 80 for both systems, so it seems that the practical implementation of the programs has the potential to provide the expected results. In conclusion, these innovative technological solutions in collaboration with expert health professionals, can improve the quality of life of older adults, remain autonomous and independent, but at the same time active members of society for a long time.

Abstract (sommario):

Physical culture and sports activities are presented as a way to optimize the physical and mental health of older people. Based on the results of theoretical analysis, the author suggests Nordic walking and table tennis as effective means of adaptive physical activity for age-related people with health restrictions. The study found a significant improvement in the functional indicators of the main body systems, as well as optimization of the level of anxiety of the subjects in the course of classes.

Abstract (sommario):

тенденция демографического старения населения вынуждает все сферы современного российского общества адаптироваться к увеличению числа лиц старшей возрастной группы. О наличии такой адаптации свидетельствует возникновение во многих регионах РФ различных образовательных программ для людей третьего возраста, где пенсионеры могут изучать иностранные языки, заниматься творчеством и любительским спортом, осваивать компьютер и мобильные устройства. В статье рассмотрены многие проблемы, возникающие после прекращения работы (одиночество, социальная эксклюзия, информационное неравенство, снижение качества жизни и удовлетворенности ею, ухудшение материального положения), которые помогает разрешать образование как социальный институт. Вовлечение старшего поколения в образовательные мероприятия позволит продлить период здоровой, активной жизни, что хотя бы частично снизит нагрузку на систему здравоохранения и медицинской помощи в долгосрочной перспективе. Образовательная инклюзия пенсионеров позволит решить проблему дефицита трудовых ресурсов, связанную с демографическим кризисом (падением рождаемости), привлечь пенсионеров к участию в решении некоторых социально значимых проблем (экологической, адаптации выпускников детдомов, помощь инвалидам, престарелым, людям без определенного места жительства). tendency of population’s demographic aging challenge all spheres of modern Russian society to adapt to growth of number of elderly people. Appearance of various educational programs for elderly people’s learning foreign language, creation, sports, computer, gadgets, and digital literacy at many Russian regions say about this adaptation. Many problems, appearing after leaving a work (solitude, social exclusion, informational inequality, reducing of quality of life, life satisfaction and incomes), which education as a social institution helping to cope, considered at the article. Involvement older generation in educational arrangement prolong a period of healthy and active life and decrease partly a burden on the system of public health and medical aid. Educational inclusion allows to attract pensioners to participation at decision some social problems, such as ecological problem, problem of social adaptation of children homes’ graduates, aid senile people, disabled and homeless persons and to solve a problem of working resources’ deficit, appearing because of demographic crisis and birth rate reducing.

Abstract (sommario):

Global population aging is one of the most critical factors in the coming decades (Eurostat, 2019). In Italy, international trends are confirmed: the average age of residents, which was 32 in 1952, increased to 46.2 years at the beginning of 2022 (Istat, 2022). The overall effects of aging on the health and welfare system are considerable. Indeed, with ageing is associated with an increase in chronic pathological conditions, co-morbidities, or the inability to perform basic daily activities independently, and this leads to an increase in the care and assistance needs of the elderly. The European health interview survey (2019) finds that there in Italy there are about 4.6 million elderly people with severe or moderate difficulties in ADLs (Activities of Daily Living) and IADLs (Instrumental Activities of Daily Living), such that they need help and support to carry them out. However, the need for help is not always fully met: more than 2 million people over 65 with impaired independence do not feel adequately helped (Istat, 2022b).A distinctive factor of the new generation of elders is their approach to technologies, a factor that can greatly expand the possibilities of access to care and assistance, communication and information services (Istat, 2019). To provide, as far as possible, the continuity of care and assistance people need, telemedicine services can ensure safe and efficient care pathways while maintaining a strong patient-physician relationship. For example, in Italy before the health emergency caused by the Covid-19 virus, the use of telemedicine services was very limited. The pandemic emergency accelerated the diffusion of telemedicine applications and services, especially aimed at bridging the difficulties of performing health care services in person and minimizing hospital admissions when unnecessary. Before that time, home-based telemedicine services were used for the management of asthma, hypertension, pulmonary disease, and congestive heart failure (Chan et al., 2003; Benatar et al., 2003; Maiolo et al., 2003; Hersh et al., 2006; Panicacci et al., 2021).Digital technologies are thus a resource to support care and assistance at home. Design, and in particular the Human-Centred Design approach, can have a crucial role both in understanding the elderly population's needs and in translating these needs into digital products that are more suitable and relevant to their purpose.This article presents the first results of the research conducted by the Laboratory of Ergonomics & Design (LED) of the University of Florence as part of Spoke 3 of the project "THE - Tuscany Health Ecosystem" of the PNRR (National Recovery and Resilience Plan), funded by the Italian government with Next Generation EU funds - Mission 4 (Education and Research) - Component 2 "From Research to Enterprise". The THE project involves the participation of 22 partners including universities, research centers and companies in the Tuscany Region, organized in 10 Spokes. The goal is to develop guidelines for the design of interfaces and products for telemedicine services in digital diagnosis and therapy for neurodegenerative diseases.This article will discuss the research questions, applied research methodology, results and future developments.

Abstract (sommario):

There are estimated to be around 900 million older adults (aged 60 years and above), around 13 per cent of the world population. The COVID-19 pandemic helped shed light on the specific needs of older people as a group more susceptible to severe disease/infection, and revealed the lack of capacity within water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) NGOs to respond to these specific needs. This SLH Learning Paper explores the WASH needs of older people in both development and humanitarian contexts, as well as the fundamental role older people play in facilitating other people’s WASH access, health, and wellbeing. The paper refers to the data WASH actors collect on older people in order to understand their differing WASH needs, the barriers to accessing WASH, and the need to ensure older people’s participation, including their active role in helping find the solutions. Recommendations are made for planning with communities and programme design; WASH programme implementation and to reduce environmental barriers.
