Knowledge and Knowledge Needs about Lyme Disease among Occupational and Recreational Users of the Outdoors
As the prevalence of Lyme disease increases across Canada, it is imperative that the educational needs of at-risk groups be identified. The current study compared the level of knowledge and the knowledge needs about Lyme disease among individuals that spend time outdoors for work and for recreational purposes. Between December 2018 and February 2019, a survey was distributed to outdoor organizations across New Brunswick, Canada. Within the curren…
The role of religion when crisis looms
The present study examined the relationship between religion and well-being in older adults during a time of financial difficulty within their religious community. Focus-group and one-on-one interviews were carried out with 39 participants sampled from three Anglican parishes in eastern Canada during a financial crisis that was likely to lead to the closing of two churches. Three main themes emerged from the analyses: Crisis, Transition, and Stat…
Strategies for Aging in Place
For healthy and independent older adults, aging in place can be seen as identical to any other adult living at home. Little is known about how frail seniors, particularly those who speak a minority language, manage the challenges of aging in place. The present qualitative descriptive study explores the strategies that Canadian French-speaking seniors have put in place to counter their loss of independence and promote their ability to stay in thei…

Collaboration with Diverse Partners
In this study, we investigate the ability and motivation of older women to adapt their speaking style to the receptive and conversational needs of their partner during dyadic interactions. Older women (M = 68 years) performed a series of collaborative tasks varying in cognitive difficulty with a female college student and a woman with mild mental retardation. These tasks included (a) a 3-minute getting acquainted task, (b) menu planning, (c) coll…
Metamemory Predictors of Prospective and Retrospective Memory Performance
The authors examined the relationship between memory self-efficacy and memory performance on 4 laboratory tasks designed to mimic everyday prospective and retrospective memory tasks. The results indicated that memory self-efficacy significantly influenced prospective, but not retrospective, memory performance. Further analyses showed that perceptions of greater memory capacity, stability, and anxiety were associated with better performance on tim…
Younger and Older Adults Collaborating on Retelling Everyday Stories
Recall of Medication Instructions by Young and Elderly Adult Women
We tested the effectiveness of overaccommodative speech as a way to improve comprehension and recall of diagnostic and medication regimen instructions. Forty younger (M age = 21 years) and 82 older (M age = 71 years) adult women watched a videotape of an actor presenting medication instructions in either an overaccommodative or a neutral speaking style. Only older women with higher working memory performance levels benefited from overaccommodativ…
Communication during prose recall conversations by young and old dyads
This study focused on the cooperative processes occurring during collaborative prose recall by adult dyads differing in age (young and old) and relationship (married and unacquainted). Analyses of the content of the conversations indicate that all groups produced similar proportions of story‐related and conversation‐related productions. At the beginning of the conversations, individual stimulus‐based productions were predominant. The end of the c…
