Les personnes âgées ayant une PVLA emploient souvent une gamme de stratégies d’adaptation. But. Cette étude visait à identifier les stratégies d’adaptation psychologiques employées par les personnes âgées ayant une PVLA. Méthodologie. Cette métasynthèse a permis de faire une recension des écrits et de repérer 21 articles qualitatifs décrivant un lien entre les stratégies d’adaptation psychologiques et l’engagement occupationnel. Résultats. Les stratégies psychologiques identifiées ont été catégorisées en fonction de cinq thèmes. Les stratégies consistant à persister avec espoir, positivisme et acceptation et à projeter une image de soi fondée sur l’autonomie, la compétence et l’indépendance étaient bien établies dans la littérature, alors que d’autres thèmes, comme avoir recours à l’humour, s’en remettre aux croyances religieuses/spirituelles, et se comparer aux autres, étaient émergents. Conséquences. En comprenant mieux les stratégies d’adaptation psychologiques employées par les personnes âgées ayant une PVLA, les ergothérapeutes seront en mesure d’orienter leurs clients vers des stratégies d’adaptation positives.

Investigating the enabling factors influencing occupational therapists’ adoption of assisted living technology / Colleen McGrath in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 11 (Novembre 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 11 (Novembre 2017) . - p. 668-675 Titre : Investigating the enabling factors influencing occupational therapists’ adoption of assisted living technology Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Colleen McGrath ; Maggie Ellis ; Sarah Harney-Levine ; [et al...] Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : p. 668-675 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ergothérapeute  technologie Résumé : Introduction Research into technology adoption has focused on older adults’ motivations, with less exploration of the perspective of healthcare providers, including occupational therapists, who are often described as the gatekeepers to assisted living technology. Method This qualitative study utilized semi-structured interviews and focus groups with 20 occupational therapists in England and Scotland. The goal was to identify those enabling factors necessary for occupational therapists to adopt assisted living technology. Results Five themes emerged regarding the enablers needed to support the adoption of assisted living technology by occupational therapists, including: (1) a positive client–therapist relationship; (2) affordability; (3) time; (4) increased awareness, education, and training; and (5) usability features of the assisted living technology. Conclusion With an aging population and the increasing role that technology is playing globally in older adults’ lives, it has never been more important for occupational therapists to harness the potential of new, developing, and existing technologies to support people to live and age as well as possible. To accomplish this, however, requires that occupational therapists are equipped with the time, training, and education necessary to offer their clients assisted living technologies that are client-centered, usable, and affordable.

The benefits and barriers to technology acquisition: Understanding the decision-making processes of older adults with age-related vision loss (ARVL) / Colleen McGrath in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 2 (Février 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 2 (Février 2017) . - p. 123-131 Titre : The benefits and barriers to technology acquisition: Understanding the decision-making processes of older adults with age-related vision loss (ARVL) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Colleen McGrath ; Arlene Astell Année de publication : 2017 Article en page(s) : p. 123-131 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : personne âgée  basse vision Résumé : Introduction While research has investigated the factors influencing acquisition and use of technologies/assistive devices by older adults, few studies have addressed the decision-making processes regarding technology adoption of older adults with age-related vision loss. Method This critical ethnography engaged 10 older adults with age-related vision loss in narrative interviews, participant observation sessions, and semi-structured in-depth interviews to understand their decision-making processes related to the acquisition and use of low vision assistive devices to support occupational engagement. Findings Study findings focused on the benefits and barriers to technology acquisition and use. Benefits of technology acquisition included: enhanced occupational engagement; independence; safety; insurance; and validation of the disability, while the barriers to technology acquisition included: cost; training; usability; lack of awareness of low vision rehabilitation services; fear of being taken advantage of; and desire to preserve a preferred self-image. Conclusion Considering the low uptake of vision rehabilitation services, the study findings are important to occupational therapy. A better understanding of the perceived benefits and barriers to technology adoption from the perspective of older adults will help occupational therapists maximize treatment planning designed to enhance the occupational engagement of older adults aging with vision loss.

The environmental factors that influence technology adoption for older adults with age-related vision loss / Colleen McGrath in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 82 Issue 8 (Août 2019)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 82 Issue 8 (Août 2019) . - p. 493-501 Titre : The environmental factors that influence technology adoption for older adults with age-related vision loss Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Colleen McGrath ; Ann Marie Corrado Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : p. 493-501 Note générale : doi.org/10.1177/0308022618813247 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Older adults  vision loss  low-vision assistive devices  environmental influences  technology adoption  qualitative research  occupational therapy Résumé : Introduction With the increasing proportion of older adults aging with vision loss, low-vision assistive devices can help to support occupational engagement; however, such devices are grossly underused among this population. The overarching purpose of this project was to examine the environmental factors that influence technology adoption for older adults with age-related vision loss. Methods A one-day workshop, which utilized a variety of hands-on methods including Show & Tell, Technology Interaction, and an “App” Assessment activity, was conducted. A total of 19 participants attended the workshop, including 10 older adults with age-related vision loss, six caregivers, one healthcare provider, and two technology industry professionals. Results A total of four themes emerged, including: (1) making life harder; (2) relying on support networks; (3) factoring in the pragmatics; and (4) not me, not yet. These themes illustrate the various ways that environmental factors, including physical, social, cultural, and institutional/political factors, influence decision-making regarding technology adoption by older adults with age-related vision loss. Conclusion This paper demonstrates several environmental factors that influence low-vision assistive device adoption among older adults with age-related vision loss. With their holistic view of clients, including an appreciation for environmental influences, occupational therapists are well positioned to help identify those environmental barriers limiting low-vision assistive device adoption and use.
