ABSTRACT

Despite the reported benefits of intergenerational programming, relatively few empirical studies have reported outcomes specific to older adult participants. We conducted a scoping review to assess older adult-specific outcomes that have been quantitatively assessed in the intergenerational programming literature and the tools used to measure such outcomes. We identified 28 studies that utilized quantitative measures to assess older adult outcomes, such as depression, loneliness, and quality of life. Researchers are encouraged to adopt rigorous methodologies when assessing older adult outcomes in order to highlight the impact of intergenerational programming for older adult participants.
