Zusammenfassung: | Research has shown that social participation contributes to older people’s healthy ageing. Out-of-home mobility may promote higher levels of social participation among older people. However, mobility and social participation are sophisticated constructs. Social participation can be distinguished among different levels, such as being alone, being alone surrounded by others, interacting with others or engaging in activities together. Social participation and time spent in out-of-home-mobility can be difficult to remember and therefore difficult to assess. Picture-based ambulatory assessment provides valid and reliable information about people’s mobility as well as their level of participation with high ecological validity. The aim of the study was to investigate older people’s level of social participation and its association with high or low out-of-home mobility. In sum, 23072 pictures (mean per person = 2307; SD = 686.7) involving ten older people (mean age = 75.4 years; SD = 7.5 years) living in southwestern Germany were analysed. They were asked to wear a wearable camera for two consecutive days. Images were automatically captured every 15 seconds. Image analysis shows that study participants spent most of their time alone (at approximately 35% of analysed time). Out-of-home mobility was associated with higher levels of social participation, such as helping others (chi2 = 200,664, df = 5, p < .001). Picture-based ambulatory assessment can assist in the gathering of necessary sophisticated information that is difficult to assess via questionnaires or other similar methods. |
