Coping Strategies for Loneliness and Isolation Amongst Older Adults

This mixed-method study explored what coping strategies older adults used during the pandemic and if they experience loneliness and social isolation. The sample included 49 older adults. The quantitative portion consisted of online surveys. The qualitative consisted of semi-structured interviews. In my poster I will present the main results from both sections. The findings highlight how resilient older adults were in coping with social distance and Covid-19 preventive measures.
