The study examined the relation between older adults’ trust beliefs in nursing home carers (NHCs) and adjustment to residential care. Seventy-six older adults (mean age = 83 years, standard deviation = 7 years from UK nursing homes completed standardised scales of trust beliefs in NHCs and adjustment to residential care (satisfaction with care-giving, social engagement in the nursing home, loneliness and a latent measure). As expected, trust beliefs in NHCs were linearly associated with adjustment to residential care on all measures. There were quadratic relations between trust beliefs in NHCs and on given measures of adjustment to residential care (latent measure, satisfaction with care-giving and loneliness). Adults with very high and those with very low trust beliefs in NHCs showed depressed levels on those measures of adjustment to residential care relative to older adults with the middle range of trust beliefs. The research highlights the importance of older adults’ trust beliefs in NHCs for adjustment to nursing homes. The findings show though, that older adults who hold very high, as well those who hold very low, trust beliefs in NHCs are at risk for lower levels of adjustment.

老年人对疗养院看护者的信任信念与住宿照顾调整之间的关系

该研究调查了老年人对养老院照料者(NHC)的信任信念与对住宿照料的调整之间的关系。76名老年人(平均年龄= 83岁,距英国养老院的标准差= 7年)完成了对NHC的信任信念的标准化量表和对住宿照顾的调整(对提供照料的满意度,对养老院的社会参与,孤独感和正如预期的那样,对NHC的信任信念与对所有措施的住宿照料调整呈线性关系。对NHC的信任信念与对住宿照顾的既定调整量之间存在二次关系(潜在措施,对护理的满意程度-给予和孤独感)。与那些信任程度中等的老年人相比,对NHC的信任信念非常高或非常低的成年人的住宿照顾调整措施水平较低。该研究强调了老年人对NHC的信任信念对于调整疗养院的重要性。然而,研究结果表明,持有很高的老年人以及持有非常低的老年人对NHC的信任信念面临着较低的调整水平的风险。
