Abstract

We aimed to explore the meaning of elder abuse and its sociocultural factors from the perspectives of Kurdish older people. We purposively selected the participants, 38 female and 17 male, from a rural area in Boukan country, Iran. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions and were analyzed applying conventional content analysis. Researchers finally characterized viewpoints of the participants into two themes including structural changes in family interactions and changes in sociocultural values. Public education about moral norms and enactment of supportive laws for elderly people may help minimize elder abuse.

摘要

我们旨在从库尔德老年人的角度探讨虐待老年人的含义及其社会文化因素。我们有目的地从伊朗布坎县的一个农村地区挑选了参与者，其中38名女性和17名男性。通过半结构化访谈和焦点小组讨论收集数据，并运用传统内容分析法进行分析。研究人员最终将参与者的观点归纳为两个主题，包括家庭互动中的结构变化和社会文化价值观的变化。开展关于道德规范的公众教育以及制定支持老年人的法律可能有助于将虐待老年人的行为降至最低。
