Surveys

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology and Public Health
  • Sociology of Health and Illness
  • Cultural Studies in Healthcare

Background:

  • COVID-19 lockdowns imposed strict visiting restrictions in care homes, increasing risks for residents.
  • Vulnerable minority groups, including older ethnic populations, require specific research regarding their care home experiences.
  • The Chinese community in New Zealand faces unique challenges like language barriers and discrimination, exacerbated by the pandemic.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the experiences of Chinese care home residents in New Zealand during COVID-19 lockdowns.
  • To understand the impact of restrictions on a vulnerable ethnic minority group within aged care facilities.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study involving interviews with residents (n=6), family members (n=6), and facility staff (n=6).
  • Participants were exclusively Chinese residents and their families from two Chinese-run care homes in Auckland, New Zealand.
  • Interviews were conducted in English or Mandarin Chinese, transcribed, coded, and analyzed to synthesize themes.

Main Results:

  • Five key themes emerged: acceptance and pragmatism, attitudes towards authority, the concept of 'máfan' (to trouble), challenges to filial duties, and pandemic response strategies.
  • The study identified specific cultural and philosophical values influencing residents' experiences during the lockdown period.
  • Findings highlight the need for culturally and linguistically appropriate support for Chinese care home residents.

Conclusions:

  • This research reframes the narrative of older Chinese care home residents during COVID-19 restrictions.
  • Recommendations include integrating identified findings and philosophical values into future care protocols.
  • Future protocols should prioritize the cultural and language needs of Chinese care home residents for improved well-being.
