This paper presents a systematic review of intergenerational studies between adolescents and older adults. Thirteen papers were reviewed using PRISMA guidelines, and outcomes, methodological quality, facilitators, and barriers identified, to better understand effectiveness and inform recommendations for future practice. The framework informed quality assessment, and the papers were rated moderate or high quality. Unfortunately, heterogeneity across studies rendered comparison challenging.

Relying upon data gathered from 550 grandparents (M age = 63.53), the age at which persons first became grandparents was calculated and criteria for assessing the timeliness of its impact were developed. Comparisons across five age categories of timeliness as well as a three category schema suggested that while the timing of first-time grandparenthood negatively impacted adults’ emotional connection to a target grandchild, their efficacy as grandparents, their personal well-being, and their physical health, the strength and direction of such effects varied by specific grandparent outcomes. Having information regarding grandparent timeliness would be valuable in designing prospective (prior to the grandchild’s birth) support/or educational programs for such persons as well as for grandparents who are raising a grandchild at an inopportune time in their lives.KEYWORDS: Grandparentinglife eventson-timenessoff-timeness Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).","PeriodicalId":46132,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intergenerational Relationships","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136357815","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}

This study qualitatively examined in-person and virtual versions of the Lives Well Lived program, which matches older adults (OAs) with undergraduate students to participate in a mutual interviewing, life review project. Post-test data from open-ended questions were analyzed to compare themes regarding program outcomes. Recognition of OA interindividual differences, intergenerational relationship’s value, and decreased fear of aging themes developed in both program versions but there were also differences. Participants in the virtual version regretted not engaging in person, did not mention altruism/empathy, expressed appreciation of peer relationships in addition to OA relationships, and disliked writing reflection papers. Recommendations are given for ensuring similar learning outcomes when engaging in virtual programming, whether due to COVID-19 or in additional situations to pandemics, such as rural settings, lack of transportation/mobility, or time limitations.KEYWORDS: Agingvirtualintergenerationalservice-learninggerontology AcknowledgmentsThanks to Sky Bergman, Lives Well Lived filmmaker for her participation in the Lives Well Lived project and Dr. Phyllis Solomon for her mentorship.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Contributions to the FieldThis study advances the intergenerational field by (1) providing guidance to those wanting to implement a short, virtual, intergenerational service-learning program; (2) elucidating some of the similarities and differences in student experience when participating in virtual vs. in-person versions of the same program; (3) exemplifying use of comparative qualitative studies when investigating the efficacy of intergenerational interventions delivered through both virtual and in-person modalities.Supplementary materialSupplemental data for this article can be accessed online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15350770.2023.2261441","PeriodicalId":46132,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Intergenerational Relationships","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135534387","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}
