Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
1. Recruit 650 older adults in St. Louis into the study - 400 home-delivered meal recipients and 250 receiving in-person meals at senior centers. Describe baseline differences between the two groups in use of senior center programming, technology access and use, and health and quality of life outcomes.
2. Randomly assign the 400 home-delivered meal recipients to get a GrandPad immediately (GP) or 6 months later (GP-6). Compare the GP and GP-6 groups to in-person meal recipients (IP) on: (A) VSC engagement at 6- and 12-month follow-up; and (B) health and quality of life outcomes at 6- and 12-month follow-up.
3. Examine longitudinal changes and hypothesized mediating pathways using 5 waves of data from baseline, 3-,6-,9- and 12-month follow-up. Specifically: (A) in the GP-6 group only, compare VSC engagement, health and quality of life outcomes at 6-month follow-up (a period in which they did not have a GrandPad) to 12-month follow-up (a period in which they did have a GrandPad); (B) examine 12-month trends in GrandPad and VSC engagement, health and quality of life outcomes within and across groups; and (C) test mediation of hypothesized explanatory variables from the study's conceptual framework to examine potential causal pathways for health and quality of life outcomes.
