Cognitive Development During Adulthood

73
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Aging

41
Aging is a complex biological phenomenon influenced by various processes that affect cellular and systemic functions. Several prominent theories attempt to explain its mechanisms, highlighting cellular limitations, oxidative damage, and hormonal changes as central factors in aging.
Cellular Clock Theory
The cellular clock theory posits that the human lifespan is closely tied to the finite capacity of cells to divide, a phenomenon governed by telomeres, which are protective caps at the ends of...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

This scoping review identified current active ageing assessment tools, finding most are multidimensional and developed internationally. Future tools need broader concepts and subgroup tailoring for effective active ageing measurement.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Public Health
  • Sociology of Aging

Background:

  • Aging is a significant global issue, with active ageing a key policy objective.
  • Reliable assessment tools are crucial for measuring active ageing and informing policy.
  • A comprehensive review of existing active ageing assessment tools is currently lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review and characterize current assessment tools for active ageing.
  • To identify the features and heterogeneity of existing active ageing assessment instruments.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review was conducted, focusing on Active Ageing Assessment Tools.
  • Searched seven major databases (CNKI, WanFang, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Medline, Proquest).
  • Adhered to the Arkey and O'Malley framework and PRISMA-ScR guidelines, with registration on Open Science Framework.

Main Results:

  • Twenty-two studies were included, with most tool development occurring between 2012-2023, primarily in foreign countries.
  • All reviewed tools were multidimensional, with 18 focusing on macro-level and 4 on individual-level assessments.
  • Fourteen studies utilized the World Health Organization's Theoretical Framework for Active Ageing; only two tools targeted specific subgroups.

Conclusions:

  • Future active ageing assessment tools should incorporate broader concepts and social theories.
  • There is a need to develop measurement tools tailored for diverse subgroups of older adults across different levels.
