This review will focus on <i>The Golden Bachelor</i> and how it brought aging and associated conversations about dating, intimacy, and grief into popular discourse. While the show significantly revises how older adults are portrayed in popular media, it tempers this potentially subversive move by doubling down on its other socially conventional elements - beauty, monogamy, able-bodiedness, and traditional family values. <i>The Golden Bachelor</i> represents a step forward in visibility of older adults while also being a reminder of the problematic ways that aging is portrayed in popular media. It opens opportunities for dialogue and learning but also reveals the narrow scope of identity that reality television is prepared to depict.

Despite the mounting evidence that pets provide support and comfort for people of all ages, but particularly older adults, social service agencies and programs that serve older adults are often reluctant to recognize the power of the human-animal bond.

While previous research has explored factors contributing to treatment burden, much of it has centered on routine periods, leaving a gap in the understanding of this issue during crisis situations characterized by heightened stress and uncertainty. Therefore, this study aims to address this gap by investigating the mediating role of intolerance of uncertainty and war-related stress in the relationship between perceived social support and treatment burden among adult-child caregivers during the Israel-Hamas war. The study involved Israeli adult-child caregivers who completed a structured questionnaire distributed online. The findings showed that perceived social support was negatively associated with intolerance of uncertainty, which, in turn, was positively associated with war-related stress. Consequently, a positive correlation was observed between war-related stress and treatment burden. Perceived social support was found to be negatively associated with war-related stress. These findings underscore the significance of social support in reducing treatment burden, particularly during periods of heightened stress such as wartime. Understanding the interplay between these factors can inform the development of effective interventions aimed at alleviating the burden experienced by adult-child caregivers.</p>","PeriodicalId":47579,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Gerontological Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-12-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142869723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
