Posibilidades de la web para el despliegue de intervenciones integrales con personas mayores

Abstract

The psychosocial, emotional and technological adaptation needs of the elderly have been increasing for several reasons. The objective of this study is to carry out a review about the main results of the research on these issues, with the long term goal of designing, implementing and perform a differential evaluation of a comprehensive program for the development of these competences in older people through the tools of Web 2.0. The study was divided into two parts. In the first, we present evidence from the review process on emotional and psychosocial variables. The second shows the results obtained in relation to the tools of Web 2.0. Finally, we discuss the relevance of developing interventions in this line. During this research study, we received competitive funds from the Spanish Ministry of Education, Science and Innovation (MICINN) (EDU2010-19250 / EDUC) for 2010-2013, awarded to the Director/Main Researcher (J. N. García). C. Díaz-Prieto received funds from the FPU MECD for 2013-2017.
