UNASSIGNED: To explore possibilities to foster social participation for older adults in society from the perspective of stakeholders.
UNASSIGNED: A qualitative design was applied. 18 key informants, engaged in supporting older adults in their organisational roles as either professionals or volunteers, participated in five different focus groups discussions.
UNASSIGNED: The results involved two overarching themes that reflects different perspectives on key informants\' possibilities to foster social participation for older adults. The first theme describes how they direct their attention towards their roles within the organisations to foster social participation in their own context. The second theme describes the broader societal perspectives that they address to establish a common ground for collaboration and knowledge-sharing among different stakeholders.
UNASSIGNED: The findings emphasise how addressing common challenges and developing collaboration are essential to foster older adults\' social participation. It is therefore necessary to involve policy-makers and decision-makers. Occupational therapists and researchers should consider the value of occupational justice to drive collective and social approaches.
■从利益相关者的角度探索促进老年人社会参与的可能性。
■采用了定性设计。18个关键线人,从事支持老年人作为专业人员或志愿者的组织角色,参加了五个不同的焦点小组讨论。
■结果涉及两个总体主题,这些主题反映了对关键线人促进老年人社会参与的可能性的不同观点。第一个主题描述了他们如何将注意力集中在组织中的角色上,以在自己的背景下促进社会参与。第二个主题描述了更广泛的社会观点,这些观点旨在为不同利益相关者之间的合作和知识共享建立共同基础。
研究结果强调了应对共同挑战和发展合作对促进老年人的社会参与至关重要。因此,有必要让决策者和决策者参与进来。职业治疗师和研究人员应考虑职业正义的价值,以推动集体和社会方法。
