<title>Choosing Among Residential Options: Results of a Vignette Experiment</title>
<link>http://roa.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/34/1/3?rss=1</link>
<description><![CDATA[
Older people who experience declining health are often faced with difficult decisions about possible residential relocation. The research aim was to determine how five distinct dimensions&mdash;functional status, features of current housing, social networks, features of retirement communities, and financial considerations&mdash;affect decisions to relocate to a retirement community. A vignette experiment with a factorial design was conducted involving both older people and adult children who were concerned with an aging parent. Use of the Internet for administration of the experiment made it possible to deliver information to research participants through video clips. Research participants were influenced by each of the dimensions; however, functional status of the vignette persons had the greatest impact, and financial considerations the least. Adult children were more likely to recommend moves than were older people. The research is suggestive of the potential for use of vignette experiments for a fuller understanding of relocation decisions.

<title>Intergenerational Shared Sites: An Examination of Socio-Physical Environments and Older Adults&#x27; Behavior</title>
<link>http://roa.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/34/1/34?rss=1</link>
<description><![CDATA[
Few studies have examined older adults&rsquo; behavior and attitudes within the context of intergenerational shared site (IGSS) environments, where children and older adults receive services at the same facility and typically share space and resources on an ongoing basis. This natural study examined the behaviors of older adults participating in two senior center programs that were co-located with child care facilities. Data collection involved participant observation and in-depth interviews with staff members at each IGSS. The data were systematically coded and analyzed for themes. Although positive informal intergenerational interactions occurred at both centers, many older adults demonstrated negative behaviors and attitudes when their programs shared space and/or relinquished resources to children&rsquo;s programs. Implications for research and practice are provided.

<title>Evaluative Organization of the Self-Concept in Younger, Midlife, and Older Adults</title>
<link>http://roa.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/34/1/56?rss=1</link>
<description><![CDATA[
Showers&rsquo;s model of evaluative organization is a fruitful way to conceptualize the self-concept and is related to self-esteem, depressive symptoms, and emotion regulation. In this study, the authors developed and piloted a card-sort measure to compare the evaluative organization of the self-concept in healthy older, midlife, and younger adults (approximately two thirds of participants were women). The results support the primary hypothesis that older adults would exhibit greater compartmentalization of the self-concept than younger and middle-aged persons. Older adults may think about their positive and negative self-aspects in a more differentiated fashion (i.e., categorize positive and negative self-aspects into separate roles) than younger and midlife persons, who are more integrative (i.e., categorize positive and negative self-aspects under the same role heading) in their self-concepts. The results are consistent with cognitive priming, memory, and emotion regulation studies, which suggest that the way persons organize information about themselves may be different in younger, midlife, and older adults.

<title>Perceived Level and Appraisal of the Growing Expectations for Active Ageing Among the Young-Old in Germany</title>
<link>http://roa.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/34/1/80?rss=1</link>
<description><![CDATA[
Demographic change and the call for active ageing impose new demands on older individuals. Using data on German adults aged 56 to 75 (N = 1,468), the authors investigated perceived level of activation demands (e.g., increased expectations that the young-old will contribute to the public good) and appraisal of them as threatening or challenging by individuals with different health status and socioeconomic backgrounds. Overall, perceived level of demands was moderately high, and they were seen rather as a challenge. East Germans, those with better subjective health, and those unemployed reported a higher level of activation demands, whereas retired and widowed individuals reported a lower level. Moreover, East Germans, individuals with lower educational attainment, and those reporting health problems (but not physically handicapped individuals) experienced these demands more as a threat and less as a challenge. The authors argue that more targeted policy strategies are needed to promote active ageing in disadvantaged groups.

<title>Factor Structure Investigation of the Care-Receiver Efficacy Scale-Short-Form: Longitudinal Confirmatory Factor Analysis</title>
<link>http://roa.sagepub.com/cgi/content/abstract/34/1/100?rss=1</link>
<description><![CDATA[
The present study investigated the factor structure invariance of the Care-Receiver Efficacy Scale&ndash;Short Form (CRES) using confirmatory factor analysis. Response data were collected from 177 participants across three time points. The analyses of the five-subscale, 25-item CRES at the individual time points indicated that the first-order and second-order models were acceptable. However, Perceptions of Dependence was not a reliable indicator for the higher order factor defined as Overall Care-Receiver Efficacy. The revised 20-item CRES without Perceptions of Dependence had adequate model fit. A series of progressively more constrained models revealed the higher order 20-item CRES can be used as a stable measure of health care self-efficacy for older care-receivers.
