The population of older adults is rapidly increasing worldwide. Owing to fewer interactions between generations, older adults experience ageism and various psychological issues, such as depression and loneliness. Digital storytelling (DST) has the potential to share vivid lived experiences, support the forming of social relationships, and lead to improved well-being. This scoping review examines the potential psychosocial benefits of individual DST interventions for older adults and people with dementia. We adopted the methodological framework for scoping reviews outlined in the Joanna Briggs Institute's (JBI) manual. A scoping review was performed using the following bibliographic databases: Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Research Information Sharing Service, and National Assembly Library. There were 395 references retrieved, of which 19 articles were selected after applying inclusion and exclusion criteria. Our findings revealed that the most common effects of DST on older adults included the promotion of mental health, an increased amount of meaningful community connections, greater digital literacy, the mitigation of negative ageism, and enhanced intellectual ability. We suggest randomized controlled trials are conducted to confirm the efficacy of intergenerational DST intervention and the effects of DST interventions at multilevel outcomes, including the community level.
全球老年人人口正在迅速增加。由于代际间互动减少，老年人遭受年龄歧视以及各种心理问题，如抑郁和孤独。数字故事讲述（DST）有潜力分享生动的生活经历，支持社会关系的形成，并改善幸福感。本综述探讨了针对老年人和痴呆症患者的个体DST干预措施潜在的心理社会效益。我们采用了乔安娜·布里格斯研究所（JBI）手册中概述的综述方法框架。使用以下文献数据库进行了综述：科学网、PubMed、考科蓝图书馆、护理学与健康领域数据库、研究信息共享服务库和国民议会图书馆。共检索到395篇参考文献，应用纳入和排除标准后，选择了19篇文章。我们的研究结果显示，DST对老年人最常见的影响包括促进心理健康、增加有意义的社区联系、提高数字素养、减轻负面年龄歧视以及增强智力。我们建议进行随机对照试验，以确认代际DST干预的效果以及DST干预在包括社区层面在内的多层次结果上的影响。
