Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Although older adults are particularly vulnerable to the effects of climate change, they seem to be overall less concerned about it, and less inclined to support climate policies. The study aims to identify the communication strategies that have been evaluated in promoting awareness and/or climate friendly behaviors in older adults.

METHODS

We searched multiple electronic databases for studies that evaluated the effects of any interventions aimed at communicating climate change to older persons (over 65 years) and assessed the results as awareness and /or behavioral changes. We selected quantitative, qualitative and mixed methods studies, and we also included systematic reviews for cross-referencing. Risk of bias of included studies was evaluated using different tools according to the study design.

RESULTS

From a total of 5,486 articles, only 3 studies were included. One mixed-method study engaged older adults to assess the community vulnerability to climate change and to develop adaptation recommendations based on their perspectives; one qualitative study conducted focus groups to identify the more effective language, values and themes based on participants' responses to narratives; one quantitative study utilized a 360-degree audio-visual platform allowing users to engage with immersive visualizations of sea-level rise scenarios.

DISCUSSION

Despite the paucity of literature, this review demonstrates the potential for different strategies to increase the awareness of older persons about climate change. The involvement of older adults in the communication process, the identification of their priorities, and the integration of technology in their daily lives are promising approaches but more research, including both quantitative and qualitative studies is recommended on this topic.

摘要

简介

尽管老年人特别容易受到气候变化的影响，但他们似乎总体上对气候变化的关注度较低，对支持气候政策的意愿也较低。本研究旨在确定已评估过的沟通策略，以提高老年人对气候变化的认识和/或促进其采取气候友好行为。

方法

我们在多个电子数据库中搜索了评估任何旨在向老年人（65 岁以上）传达气候变化信息的干预措施效果的研究，并将结果评估为意识和/或行为变化。我们选择了定量、定性和混合方法研究，还包括了系统评价作为交叉参考。根据研究设计，使用不同的工具评估纳入研究的偏倚风险。

结果

在总共 5486 篇文章中，只有 3 项研究被纳入。一项混合方法研究让老年人参与评估社区对气候变化的脆弱性，并根据他们的观点制定适应建议；一项定性研究通过焦点小组，根据参与者对叙述的反应，确定更有效的语言、价值观和主题；一项定量研究利用 360 度视听平台，让用户能够参与海平面上升情景的沉浸式可视化。
