Precarious ageing in a global pandemic – older adults' experiences of being at risk due to Covid-19
Health authorities worldwide address older adults as a risk group for more serious illness and health complications associated with COVID-19, while social gerontologists have warned that addressing older adults as a risk group of COVID-19 bears the risk of reinforcing ageism. This paper empirically explores to what extent older adults perceive themselves as part of a COVID-19 risk group and how these perceptions influence their everyday lives and…
Risk Factors with the Greatest Impact on Caregiver Burden in Informal Homecare Settings in Austria
The aim of this study was to reveal the factors that most contribute to caregiver burden in informal adult caregivers, caring for adult care recipients in homecare settings in Austria. A quantitative supplementary secondary analysis based on the dataset of the Austrian Caregiver Study was conducted between February 2021 and March 2022. Based on the dataset of the primary study, which was deemed representative for caregivers in homecare context, 2…
A Multilevel Model of Older Adults’ Appropriation of ICT and Acquisition of Digital Literacy
Digital literacy refers to a set of competencies related to the skilled use of computers and information technology. Low digital skills can be a barrier for older adults' full participation in a digital society, and COVID-19 has increased this risk of social exclusion. Older adults' digital inclusion is a complex process that consists of the interplay of structural and individual factors. The ACCESS project unwrapped the complexity of the process…
Covid-19 as a “Digital Push?” Research Experiences From Long-Term Care and Recommendations for the Post-pandemic Era
Health authorities and governments worldwide label older adults as a "risk group" for more serious and possibly fatal illness associated with SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) (1). Those older adults living in long-term care (LTC) are considered especially prone to more serious and fatal disease following a COVID-19 infection (2). Consequently, measures requiring LTC residents to shelter in place and maintain physical distancing from others have been enacted…
Learning with and about Digital Technology in Later Life
Literature has widely explored the learning processes with information and communication technology (ICT) in later life, mostly focusing on the individual learner rather than materialities—such as smartphones, notepads, and handouts. The aim of this paper is to introduce a socio-material perspective by focusing on the question: What role do materialities play in digital learning processes in later life? This paper draws upon a situation analysis …
Doing digital exclusion – technology practices of older internet non-users
Gerontological literature has widely explored barriers to technology use in later life, often drawing upon binary conceptualizations of "using" and "not using" a certain technological device. However, such concepts have been increasingly up for debate. Using a praxeological approach, this study aims to explore technology use and non-use in later life not as dichotomous counterparts, but as routine experiences that take place in the everyday lives…
Everyday discrimination in the neighbourhood
Despite the fact that urbanisation, population ageing and international migration constitute major societal developments of our time, little attention has been paid to studying them together in a comprehensive manner. In this paper, we argue that, when treating age and ethnicity as practical processes for addressing and identifying with social groups, it is necessary to do so from a ‘doing’ perspective. The question we ask focuses on which social…

Contrasting Cultural Profiles between Generations
This paper is concerned with intercultural relationships within the trigenerational family. As part of our study of sociostructural changes affecting the family, we have looked at these relationships from a basis of the concepts: generation gap and seriality between generations. The information reported in this paper was obtained from twenty inter-generational triads (ten female, six male, four mixed) who were given a series of highly structured …
National cultures and technology transfer
Arbeit — Freizeit — Lebenszeit
Die hier vorgelegten Ergebnisse stellen im wesentlichen folgende Zusam menhange klar: Mit steigendem Alter steigen bis zur Altersgruppe der 40-50jahrigen sowohl die Gesamtzahl der angegebenen beruflichen Belastungen, als auch die der chronischen Erkrankungen. Bei den hoheren Altersgruppen nimmt die Gesamtzahl der angegebenen Belastungen ab, die Anzahl der chronischen Erkrankungen steigt hingegen mit steigendem Alter weiter an. Der scheinbare Ruck…
