This qualitative study explored how older people living with early-onset mobility disabilities define successful aging, whether their definitions differ from those proposed by academia and from those of older people without disabilities, and to what extent older people with motor disabilities perceive themselves as aging successfully.Method: Thirty-two people (20 women, 12 men) aged over 60 and living with motor disabilities for a minimum of 20 years were interviewed about their definition of successful aging and whether they considered that they were aging successfully. Responses were analyzed thematically.Results: We identified five main themes: (a) activity, (b) supportive context, (c) proactive attitude, (d) autonomy and (e) adaptation. Most participants considered that they were aging successfully, according to the themes underlined in their definition of successful aging.Conclusion: Participants see successful aging as based far more on psychosocial than biomedical aspects. Successful aging is defined as process in which the maintenance of desired activities and independence is attained due to contextual and psychological resources, which allows participants to perceive themselves as aging successfully.","PeriodicalId":55546,"journal":{"name":"Aging & Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"660-668"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142959193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using narrative inquiry, we explored caregiving experiences, focusing on stress, and identified factors contributing to stress among Korean-American family caregivers providing in-home care to individuals with ADRD.Method: We conducted one-on-one, semi-structured interviews with 15 Korean-American family caregivers of individuals with ADRD. We analyzed the participants' stress in the context of temporality (i.e. timelines of their caregiving), sociality (i.e. cultural and familiar contexts), and place (i.e. various life settings).Results: The majority of participants were female (73%), Korean-born immigrants (93%), and had relatively high levels of education with an average of 16 years of education. We found that 1) caregivers' stress continued but varied along the ADRD caregiving trajectory, 2) cultural expectations and relationship dynamics amplified stress levels, and 3) maintaining a Korean identity while living in the United States limited caregivers' social connections.Conclusion: Our findings highlight the nuances of stress among Korean-American ADRD family caregivers. Specific support needs should be addressed in the development of culturally tailored stress reduction interventions for this understudied population.","PeriodicalId":55546,"journal":{"name":"Aging & Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"606-613"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142570524","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We aimed to psychometrically evaluate the CSS in older adults.Method: The CSS was examined with 486 North American older adults aged 65 years and older. Data were collected in January 2024 using Qualtrics Panels. Reliability was assessed using Cronbach's alpha and McDonald's omega coefficients, structural validity using confirmatory factor analysis, and discriminant validity using a social desirability measure. Item properties were examined using item response theory.Results: The CSS demonstrated robust internal consistency and a defensible five- and six-factor structure, with the six-factor providing the most optimal model of measurement. All items adequately discriminated among respondents with varying levels of COVID-related stress.Conclusion: This study is first to demonstrate that the CSS functions as a reliable and valid tool for evaluating COVID-related stress among older adults, a necessary step for supporting its use in assessing mental health impacts of pandemics in a population at high risk of negative post-infection outcomes.","PeriodicalId":55546,"journal":{"name":"Aging & Mental Health","volume":" ","pages":"726-735"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142900638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To observe intra-individual changes in the relationship between sense of control and social support over time, we used a random-intercept cross-lagged panel model with the four waves. We also conducted multi-group analyses to examine the moderating effect of gender on the associations.Results: We found that sense of control and social support were concurrently related.

However, evidence from low-income countries is limited, and the potential mediators are poorly understood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze the association between pain burden (PB) and sleep problems (SP) among older adults in Ghana and explore potential psychosomatic mediators.Method: We analyzed data from the Aging, Health, and Health-seeking Behavior study administered to 1201 adults aged ≥50 years. PB was assessed using the pain subscale of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form-36. SP was assessed using nighttime/daytime SP in the last 30 days. Multivariable OLS and mediation models evaluated the hypotheses.Results: Mean (SD) age was 66.14 (11.85) years, and 63.3% were women. After full adjustment, PB (versus no PB) was positively associated with SP in the overall sample (b = 0.227, 95% CI = 0.124 - 0.331) and women (b = 0.363, 95% CI = 0.233 - 0.492) but not in men. Moreover, the association was pronounced in the ≥65 year group (b = 0.317) than in the 50-64 year group (b = 0.216). Self-rated health (54.4%), immobility (23.4%), physical activity (12.2%), restlessness (12.1%), depression (6.4%), anxiety (6.3%), and social isolation (7.2%) mediated the PB-SP association.Conclusion: PB was positively associated with SP among older adults in Ghana.
