Hodkinson Mental Test was first applied to older adults. Older adults who scored 6 points or above were included. To evaluate the validity of “Social Frailty Index”, Social Inclusion Scale, Older People's Quality of Life-Brief (OPQOL-Brief) and Lubben Social Network Scale were applied to the participants. To determine the reliability of “Social Frailty Index”, the test was re-tested at one-week intervals on older adults who did not receive any treatment. Confirmatory factor analysis AMOS 23.0 was used to determine the conformity of the structure to the original model. For concurrent validity, the correlation analysis applied.

The results of the studies highlight how intergenerational interventions reduce ageism by fostering understanding and contact between generations, with an emphasis on technology and youth programmes. Shared housing and the duration of interventions are also key factors. As a proposal, an approach to ageism from a socio-educational perspective is proposed that favours the creation of inclusive environments, creating synergies to break the stigma of chronological age.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":39958,"journal":{"name":"Revista Espanola de Geriatria y Gerontologia","volume":"60 2","pages":"Article 101540"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142486036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
