概括
生活的目的 (PIL) 可以帮助老年人对抗孤独,即使数字参与并不能完全弥合差距. 较高的国内生产总值与孤独感较低有关,无论数字社会接触水平如何.
科学领域:
- 老年学是一门学科.
- 数字健康数字健康
- 健康的社会决定因素
背景情况:
- 数字化参与是老龄化人口健康的关键社会决定因素.
- 数字接入的差异可能会导致老年人的社会隔离和孤独.
- 数字互动在缓解孤独感方面的有效性各不相同,这表明个人的差异.
研究的目的:
- 介绍数字断开的概念:数字社会接触和经历的孤独之间的不匹配.
- 检查生活目标 (PIL) 是否减轻了老年人的数字断开.
- 识别心理资源,可以帮助老年人管理技术介导的社会互动.
主要方法:
- 使用了来自两个独立队列 (MIDUS III和MIDUS Refresher) 的横截面调查和日记数据.
- 量化数字连接断开作为个人偏离孤独与基于数字联系的预测水平.
- 分析了N=2,864 (MIDUS III) 和N=2,522 (MIDUS Refresher) 参与者的数据.
主要成果:
- 在调查和微纵向数据中,生活目标 (PIL) 与数字连接断开相反相关.
- 在计算数字参与水平后,较高的PIL与较低的残留孤独相关 (p < .001).
- 在两个独立的队列中,研究结果一致.
结论:
- 生命中的目的是老年人可修改的心理资源.
- PIL可能有助于老年人应对技术介导的社交互动所带来的挑战.
- 这些发现完善了老龄化人口中数字社会过程的理论模型.

Cognitive Development During Adulthood
757
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,...

Each stage involves a psychosocial conflict that significantly influences personal growth and well-being. Three key stages — intimacy versus isolation, generativity versus stagnation, and integrity versus despair — highlight the developmental challenges faced in adulthood.

Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication
164
Since the early 2000s, computer-mediated communication (CMC) has grown rapidly, playing a crucial role in self-development. A key distinction between CMC and real-life interactions is the lack of a physically present partner. This absence makes non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, body language, and paralinguistic signals unavailable in CMC platforms like email, instant messaging, or social media. The lack of these cues can create ambiguity and complicate how feedback is interpreted.The...

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...

One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Pharmacodynamics in Geriatric Patients: Effects of Age
180
Age-related pharmacokinetic changes are extensively documented, but understanding age-related pharmacodynamic alterations is relatively limited. This knowledge gap can be partly attributed to the complexity of developing appropriate measures of drug responses compared to bioanalytical methods for determining drug concentrations.Most information regarding age-related differences in human pharmacodynamics originates from cross-sectional studies. However, these studies assume that observed mean...
