Generativity among older adults who became disabled early in life
Generativity in later life, defined as older adult's concern for contributing to others and to society, has been associated with increased quality of life in later life and explored mainly among healthy, independent, community-dwelling older adults. This study explored the presence, nature and significance of generative concerns among older adults who became physically disabled in middle age or earlier. Thirty-two people (20 women, 12 men) aged o…
Development and validation of scales to measure generativity and stagnation in later life
The present study aimed to develop generativity and stagnation measures that are suitable for use with older adult samples. To achieve this, two studies were carried out. In the first study, we developed 59 items suitable for inclusion in the instrument and applied them to to a sample of 235 people who were 60 years and over. After conducting an exploratory factor analysis and a parallel analysis, we selected 23 items distributed into two scales …

Resistant, adaptive, and supported agency – Examining narratives of Finnish older home care clients
The purpose of this article is to increase our understanding of agency in older home care clients living in Finland. Twenty older home care clients (12 women, eight men) aged 73 and over were interviewed using a thematic interview. The stories narrated in the interview data were analyzed using thematic analysis, resulting in three forms of agency: resistant, adaptive, and supported. The findings show that older adults see themselves - despite the…
Perceived Societal Expectations Regarding Later Life Among Older People From Four Cultures
The study is aimed at identifying perceived societal expectations toward later life in older people and examining cultural differences in these prevailing expectations. One hundred ninety-nine people aged 60 years and above were recruited in four different cultures (Cameroon, Germany, Hong Kong, and Czech Republic). Older people responded to an open-ended question about societal expectations toward later life. Responses were transcribed and conte…
They’ve just never been involved in it’
To date, despite the many recognised benefits of participation in sport, many older people do not participate in it. This study explored the opinions about barriers to participating in sport among non-active older people from the perspective of 463 senior athletes (M = 61.4, SD = 5.5 years) engaged in competitive sports. Participants completed a questionnaire including an incomplete sentence regarding the reason why many older people do not play …
You Must Learn to Age
Studies about older people’s participation in artistic activities have increased. However, a deeper understanding of older artists’ adaptation to the ageing process is still lacking. The purposes of this study were to explore how older artists and craftspeople perceive age-related changes, and to examine their adaptations to these changes. We carried out in-depth, open-ended individual interviews with 30 visual artists and craftspeople aged 60 an…
Life course transitions and their impact on the artistic trajectories of older artists
Research on older people’s artistic participation has increased. However, the inclusion of a life course theory and the examination of differences between men and women in artistic trajectories is still scarce. In this study, we explored how life course transitions influence the artistic trajectories of older people throughout the lifecycle, and analyzed whether life course transitions affecting older artists’ trajectories differed between men an…
Competing at age 55 and over. Reasons why older athletes participate in sport
This study explores the reasons why older people participate in sports. A total of 463 senior athletes (M = 61.4, SD = 5.5) who are actively engaged in competitive sports disciplines participated in this study. The participants indicated their degree of agreement with reasons for practicing sport on a 4-point Likert scale with 20 items, developed on the basis of a literature review on motivation theories in sports. These items were analyzed psych…
The Role of Generativity in Later Life in the Case of Productive Activities
Active aging has been associated with both personal and social benefits. However, active aging encompasses a broad range of activities, including self-oriented and community-oriented ones. The aim of this study was to explore to what extent generativity is a key factor in differentiating between both types of activity, and to contribute to the theoretical and methodological literature on generativity as a multidimensional concept relevant to late…
Older age as a time to contribute
Research on later-life generativity has promoted a new view of older persons that, far from the traditional images of disability, dependence and frailty, recognises their capacities, and potential to continue growing, while underlining their participation and contributions to families, communities and society. The goal of this study was to carry out a scoping review on later-life generativity, the first one conducted on this topic as far as we kn…
Narrating political participation
Narrative approaches have gained popularity as a way to understand the construction and development of political identities over a person’s life span. However, little is known about how lifetime activists remember and make sense of different types of political experiences. To overcome this gap, this study aims to explore thematic and structural features of the narratives of lifetime activists about political experiences (O1), as well as examining…
Narrative-based learning for person-centred healthcare
This paper describes the learning framework for an innovative narrative-based training platform for healthcare professionals based on older patients' narratives. The aim of Caring Stories is to place patients' desires and needs at the heart of healthcare and by doing so to promote person-centred care (PCC). It is argued that this narrative-based approach to training in healthcare education will provide professionals from different fields with com…
A conversational, small-story approach to narrative care for people with dementia living in care institutions
The aim of the paper was to define what narrative care is and identify and discuss everyday conversational narrative care strategies regarding people living with dementia in long-term care institutional settings. To do so, we differentiate between two approaches to narrative care: a big-story approach (reflecting on life stories) and a small-story approach (enacting stories in everyday conservations). The paper is focused on the second approach, …
Ageing Activisms
Studies on older adults' political participation have been scarce. Moreover, there is a lack of evidence concerning the experience and meaning of this participation from the perspective of those involved. This study aimed at exploring older adults' personal narratives of political participation episodes. We conducted 40 life-story interviews with Spanish lifetime activists. Their narrative accounts of positive participation experiences were analy…
Older adults’ participation in artistic activities
This scoping review analyses existing literature on older adults’ participation in artistic activities. It identifies gaps in this research topic and suggests new directions for research. We followed the five-step process defined by Arksey and O’Malley (2005) and extended by Levac et al. (2010). Four electronic databases were searched, and 129 peer-reviewed articles were included in the scoping review. Research into older adults’ participation in…
Staff perceptions of barriers that lesbian, gay and bisexual residents face in long-term care settings
This study explores the difficulties that older lesbian, gay and bisexual residents may encounter when attempting to express their sexuality while living in long-term care facilities (LTCF), as perceived by staff. The sample was made up of 1714 staff members working in 152 Spanish long-term care institutions for older people. Answers to an open-ended question regarding barriers that older lesbian, gay and bisexual people living in residential ins…
Mapping Civic Engagement in Later Life
Research on older people’s civic engagement has increased significantly in the last two decades, as have policy and practice initiatives aimed at promoting civic engagement among older adults. However, the growing interest of researchers and policy-makers in older people’s civic engagement has not been mirrored by a parallel effort to define what civic engagement means in later life. To contribute to ongoing debates regarding the definition of ci…
Exclusion from Social Relations in Later Life
Older adults face particular risks of exclusion from social relationships (ESR) and are especially vulnerable to its consequences. However, research so far has been limited to specific dimensions, countries, and time points. In this paper, we examine the prevalence and micro- and macro-level predictors of ESR among older adults (60+) using two waves of data obtained four years apart across 14 European countries in the Survey of Health, Ageing and…

Lifecourse transitions and participation in political organisations in older Spanish men and women
In recent years, there has been an increasing number of studies addressing older people's political participation. Much of this literature, however, can be criticised for neglecting important aspects of seniors’ political participation, such as its dynamics across the lifecourse, its gendered nature and the influence of the particular socio-political contexts in which participation occurs. In this paper we bring together all these issues to explo…

Successful ageing and development
This paper examines the contributions that generativity in older age may make to the concept of successful ageing. To this end, two perspectives on successful ageing are described: successful ageing as a set of clinical criteria, and successful ageing as the application of adaptive processes aimed at achieving efficient functioning. After showing the limitations of the first perspective, particularly from a developmental point of view, the paper …

The Meaning of Grandparenthood
This work aims at studying the meaning of the grandparent role both from the grandparent's and the grandchild's point of view, and at assessing the effects of gender and age in this meaning. To do so, data were collected from a sample of 154 grandparent-grandchild dyads, who filled in a questionnaire with the same items adapted to their respective perspectives. The answers were submitted to a principal component analysis. Results seem to point at…
Grandparents Who Provide Auxiliary Care for Their Grandchildren
The paper is focused on grandparents who offer auxiliary care to their grandchildren. The objectives were twofold: (a) examining the satisfaction and difficulties that grandparents who provide auxiliary care drew from that task; (b) determining to what extent different care-related variables (such as the intensity of the type of provided care) and the perception of satisfaction and difficulties predict grandparent’s health and well-being. The sam…

Breaking the win-win narrative
A Field in Search of Concepts
Intergenerational relationships are increasingly recognized as an important field of practice and research. However, it has been argued that appropriate concepts and theories are still required to guide and consolidate the discipline. Although a number of concepts borrowed from the social sciences have been used with some success thus far, few attempts have been made to conceptualize intergenerational relationships from a psychological and develo…
Barriers to the retention of older participants in political organisations
It has been argued that older people's civic engagement has benefits for both individuals themselves and the community more broadly. Removing barriers to participation is, therefore, essential. However, the multi-dimensional nature of civic participation, as well as the different issues raised by recruitment and retention, complicate this. This study explores the barriers to retention of Spanish older people in political organisations, as one imp…

Political Participation and Late-Life Learning
Understanding what older people learn from their civic participation is of critical importance both for individuals and organisations. This link has been neglected in prior research, and the evidence across diverse cultural contexts is particularly limited. However, the political context of older people’s life experiences and participation is important in their participation. The intent of the present study is to explore the learnings experienced…

Grandmothers Offering Regular Auxiliary Care for Their Grandchildren
The study explores the meaning that grandmothers who offer regular childcare attach to that experience and the extent to which the notion of generativity might explain the meaning of the experience of caring for a grandchild. Twenty-four Spanish grandmothers aged 60 and over who provided at least 12 hours a week of childcare were interviewed. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and qualitatively analyzed. The results suggest that grandmothers re…
