Feasibility, acceptability and preliminary effectiveness of an intergenerational digital storytelling program for improving identity validation and generativity in older adults.
Article in Australasian journal on ageing, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study evaluated the feasibility, acceptability and outcomes of the Positive Ageing Digital Storytelling Intergenerational Program (PADSIP) for older adults by examining program feasibility, satisfaction and changes in loneliness; feelings of being understood; self-views and attitudes towards ageing.
methodsA mixed-method, single-arm design was used. Thirty-seven older adults (M = 78.25, SD = 8.88) completed questionnaires at baseline and postprogram. Thirty-one of whom also participated in a follow-up semi-structured interview or focus group.
resultsThe program demonstrated high feasibility, with each person attending an average of 94% of sessions. All participants completed the program. Acceptability was strong, with participants highly recommending the program. Identity validation significantly improved postprogram; mood, loneliness and life satisfaction also trended towards improvement. Participants valued intergenerational interactions, the opportunity to connect with others, and to reminisce and share their stories.
conclusionsThis intergenerational digital storytelling program was well-attended, acceptable and associated with increased identity validation for older adults, suggesting viability and potential benefits. Future research is needed to evaluate long-term outcomes of the program and to assess its feasibility in residential aged care settings.
