What matters to older adults when dining in restaurants? A mixed-methods approach

Chen-Wei (Willie) Tao, Xiaoye Li, Han Wen, Junehee Kwon

Aging is a complex process, but previous restaurant research on the dining behaviors of older adults has been conducted mainly from managerial perspectives, overlooking the effects of aging itself. Drawing on the three pillars of aging and the Kano Model, this study aims to identify the most influential factors affecting the dining behaviors of older adults at restaurants by interweaving the interdisciplinary perspectives of restaurant management and gerontology. An exploratory sequential mixed-methods research des …

How community-dwelling older adults use positive coping strategies to manage fear of falling: a qualitative study using walking interviews

Valeriia Yakushko, Kamila Kolpashnikova, Shital Desai

Background Older adults often experience fear of falling (FoF). Falls and FoF impose significant costs on both individuals and the healthcare system. As a result, a wide range of interventions has been developed to prevent them, and much recent research has focused on evaluating the effectiveness of these interventions. However, evidence suggests that community-dwelling older adults also develop individual coping strategies, which remain understudied. This study aims to address this gap by identifying the coping st …

Why Frailty Should Be Assessed in Older Adults Affected by Leprosy and How the Use of Smartphones Could Enhance This Health Monitoring

Luzielma Macedo Gloria, Josafá Gonçalves Barreto, João Sérgio de Sousa Oliveira, Areolino Pena Matos, Bianca Callegari, Givago Souza

Abstract Leprosy is endemic in many low-income countries, affecting mainly the poorest communities. The disease can lead to sensorimotor functional losses that can predispose patients to reduced independence. In older adults, these losses associated with leprosy are added to those already resulting from natural aging and associated comorbidities, which can contribute to the clinical picture of frailty syndrome in these older adults. Early detection of frailty can reduce several serious consequences for these indivi …
