Abstract
Este estudio examinó el impacto de la educación mediática para los programas de cuidado de personas mayores en China sobre el bienestar y la calidad de vida de la población de personas mayores. Este estudio investigó cómo la educación mediática ayuda a la población mayor a familiarizarse con la tecnología y mejorar su bienestar y calidad de vida. Los objetivos del estudio eran destacar el papel que desempeña la concientización mediática de las redes sociales, examinar los retos asociados y recomendar estrategias eficaces para promover la participación de los adultos mayores en la educación mediática de las redes sociales y el uso de aplicaciones de redes sociales que les ayuden a familiarizarse con la tecnología y a mejorar su bienestar. Se utilizó la metodología cualitativa y los datos se recogieron mediante entrevistas semiestructuradas a una muestra de 8 informantes formada por cuidadores que trabajaban en residencias de personas mayores y centros comunitarios para la tercera edad en China. Tras un análisis temático, se reveló que la educación mediática en los programas de atención a mayores beneficia potencialmente a los mayores al mejorar su autoeficacia, su conexión social y su bienestar general. También se descubrió que la concientización de los medios de comunicación por parte de los adultos mayores les ayudaba significativamente a familiarizarse con la tecnología y mejorar su calidad de vida. La escasez de equipos, la falta de voluntad y la ineficacia de los conocimientos tecnológicos fueron algunos de los retos importantes que obstaculizaron la correcta integración de la educación mediática en los programas de atención a las personas mayores. Se recomendó mejorar las sesiones de formación, los talleres y la asignación adecuada de recursos para obtener los beneficios potenciales de la educación mediática para los adultos mayores. Estos resultados son importantes para los responsables políticos y los profesionales de las instituciones de la tercera edad. Además, este estudio ofrece aportaciones novedosas a la literatura pertinente en el contexto de China.
