Abstract:
This scoping review examines elder abuse and mistreatment (EA/EM) among Asian American older adults, focusing on prevalence, perception, experience, and associated factors. A search of journal publications spanning from 1993 to 2024 through 14 databases identified 28 relevant studies. EA/EM prevalence ranged from 6% to 58.3%, averaging 23%. Despite awareness, help-seeking and reporting were low, with variations across subethnic groups. Cultural and immigration-related barriers significantly shaped perceptions and behaviors. Findings underscore the need for culturally sensitive, context-specific interventions to address the unique experiences of Asian American older adults.
