Abstract

Abstract Aims: This study explored the perspectives of older adults with medically diagnosed chronic conditions living in the community regarding their participation in leisure activities. Methods: Data were collected using a phenomenological study design. Semi-structured interviews were conducted in January 2021 via Zoom, a video conference platform. A total of 5 participants, 2 males and 3 females, ranging in age from 67–84 were interviewed. Data were analyzed using open inductive coding following the Modified Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen approach via Microsoft Excel. Results: Data analysis produced five primary themes: (a) physical challenges limit leisure participation, (b) adaptations/changes required to maintain leisure participation, (c) emotional response to limitations, (d) environmental barriers exacerbate limitations, and (e) intrinsic motivation necessary to overcome limitations and maintain participation. Conclusions: Our findings indicate that chronic conditions impact leisure participation through both physical and environmental barriers, yet participation can be sustained with adaptations and the intrinsic motivation to persevere.

慢性病对社区老年人休闲参与的影响

摘要目的：本研究探讨了生活在社区中的患有医学诊断的慢性病的老年人对他们参与休闲活动的看法。方法：采用现象学研究设计收集数据。2021年1月，通过视频会议平台Zoom进行了半结构化采访。共有5名参与者，2名男性和3名女性，年龄在67-84岁之间。数据采用开放归纳编码进行分析，遵循微软Excel的改良Stevick-Colaizzi-Keen方法。结果：数据分析产生了五个主要主题：（a）身体挑战限制了休闲参与，（b）保持休闲参与所需的适应/变化，（c）对限制的情绪反应，（d）环境障碍加剧了限制，以及（e）克服限制和保持参与所必需的内在动机。结论：我们的研究结果表明，慢性病通过身体和环境障碍影响休闲参与，但参与可以通过适应和坚持的内在动机来维持。
