  • Solitary Prosociality in Later Life: An Experience Sampling Study

    Open AccessAjit Singh Mann, Jordan Boeder et al.ARTICLEResearch on Aging2022

    Loneliness is a risk factor for older adults, one exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Although time spent alone is associated with both loneliness and greater well-being, the experience of solitude may depend on the type of activity pursued. We examined formal prosocial activity as one facilitator of positive solitary experiences. Older adults ( N = 165, M age = 71.13, SD = 5.70) highly committed to prosocial-program work (e.g., tutoring) fille…

  • Engagement with life among the oldest-old in assisted living facilities: Enriching activities and developmental adaptation to physical loss

    Open AccessJordan Boeder, Sarah Hwang et al.ARTICLEAgeing and Society2022References: 45

    The objective of this study was to examine the activities, motivations, and barriers of activity engagement in the oldest-old residing in assisted living facilities (ALFs). Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 participants, aged 80–94 (standard deviation = 4.38), from two ALFs. Thematic analyses were used to identify and corroborate clusters of experiences. All residents stated that they desired enriching activities, most often in th…

  • Rising Stars and Underdogs: The Role Race and Parental Education Play in Predicting Mentorship

    Open AccessVeronica Fruiht, Jordan Boeder et al.ARTICLEYouth & Society2022Cited by: 3References: 45

    Research suggests that youth with more financial and social resources are more likely to have access to mentorship. Conversely, the rising star hypothesis posits that youth who show promise through their individual successes are more likely to be mentored. Utilizing a nationally representative sample ( N = 4,882), we tested whether demographic characteristics (e.g., race, SES) or personal resources (e.g., academic/social success) are better predi…

  • Learning to Love, Work, and Live Your Best Life: Mentoring in Emerging Adulthood Predicts Later Flourishing and Subjective Well-Being

    Open AccessJordan Boeder, Veronica Fruiht et al.ARTICLEEmerging Adulthood2021

    Mentors that guide young people in their transition to adulthood provide support in a variety of domains that set the stage for happier adult lives. While mentoring during emerging adulthood is associated with shorter-term social and professional success—less is known about whether mentoring for career and committed relationships, specifically, are linked to downstream well-being. This study uses nationally representative data from the Panel Stud…

  • Medium Matters: A Decade of Media Consumption Predicts Positive and Negative Dimensions of Self-Perceptions of Aging

    Open AccessJordan Boeder, Dwight C K Tse et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2020Cited by: 2References: 5

    This study provides longitudinal evidence for the relationship between media consumption and SPA. However, not all types of media intake are negative as radio and book consumption were associated with better SPA across time.

  • Measuring Self-Perceptions of Aging: Differences Between Measures When Predicting Health Outcomes

    Open AccessJordan Boeder, Dwight C K Tse et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2020Cited by: 2References: 8

    Evidence supports using the AgeCog scale of Ongoing Development to predict domain-relevant, psychological health outcomes. However, the multidimensionality of SPA is best measured by the ATOA subscale or a combination of the two AgeCog scales. Both forms of measurement were found to maximize the amount of explained variance for psychological and physiological indicators of well-being and ill-being
