Methods: This cross-sectional study included 136 older adults [mean age (SD) = 65.1 (5.4)]. The Five-Factor Model of personality was evaluated using the International Personality Item Pool. Participants’ mobility was assessed using gait speed, life-space questionnaire, chair-stand and standing-balance tests. Data was analyzed using multiple linear regression. Results: Extraversion (β = 0.152, p = 0.049), conscientiousness (β = 0.238, p = 0.006), and neuroticism (β = −0.194, p = 0.016) were associated with lower extremity strength. Extraversion (β = 0.201, p = 0.021) and neuroticism (β = −0.201, p = 0.020) were associated with community mobility. No personality factor was a predictor of gait speed or balance. Conclusion: These findings may help clinicians understand the predictive power of personality and guide the development and refinement of personality-tailored interventions to improve older adults’ mobility.","PeriodicalId":45387,"journal":{"name":"PHYSICAL & OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IN GERIATRICS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41668480","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}

Methods Semi-structured interviews with 15 family caregivers, were conducted and analyzed using thematic analysis. Results Three themes were identified: 1) The highs and lows – Family caregivers had both challenging and rewarding experiences; 2) Family relationships – relationships between the caregivers and their family members were often impacted as a result of caregiving; 3) Inconsistent education – Participants discussed accessing a wide range of educational resources. A lack of caregiver-directed education was emphasized. Conclusions This study highlights that family caregivers have positive experiences and a perceived familial responsibility to provide care. There are currently unmet educational needs for caregivers. More research is needed to expand the understanding of this population and on implementing caregiver-directed education. IMPACTS AND IMPLICATIONS Health care providers need to recognize that even though the THA/TKA family caregiving role may be temporary, the challenges and burden they experience are substantial. An individualized approach, which considers family caregivers’ prior experience/knowledge, and access to information, is necessary when providing pre/postoperative education. Education directly targeting the needs of family caregivers should be implemented to improve the caregiving experience and to ensure quality patient care.","PeriodicalId":45387,"journal":{"name":"PHYSICAL & OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IN GERIATRICS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44711310","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}

Results 148 eligible responses were received and analyzed using descriptive quantitative and qualitative thematic analysis methods. More than half of participants frequently or always provided education on four of eight specified prevention topics. Under education facilitators, emergent themes included resource utilization, specific education strategies, and “it takes a village.” Under education barriers, themes included decreased understanding/acceptance, lack of time, and lack of support/resources. Conclusion OT practitioners play a critical role in addressing secondary prevention in stroke survivors, yet education on some prevention topics may be sub-optimal. Addressing identified barriers may provide opportunities to implement secondary stroke prevention education more effectively.","PeriodicalId":45387,"journal":{"name":"PHYSICAL & OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY IN GERIATRICS","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44553222","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}
