  • Social Networks

Interventions

OTHER

Intervention Program for Social Network Use Based on Activity Theory

The intervention program is structured around a three - phase framework for migrant elderly's social network use: ① triggering motivation and building basic capabilities; ② reinforcing motivation and enhancing advanced capabilities; ③ sustaining motivation and maintaining usage habits. The process involves assessing baseline status (via scales like ASNSUS, eHEALS), implementing phased interventions (teaching WeChat skills, facilitating social connections), and evaluating effectiveness (process and outcome evaluations). The 12 - week program is executed by a team including researchers, community workers, and elderly volunteers.

OTHER

Routine community activities only

After receiving regular community services and management, and understanding the overall situation and needs of the intervention targets, researchers and community managers will conduct a weekly health lecture, an offline social activity involving local elderly people (such as fitness, cultural and entertainment activities, etc.), or a lecture on policies and welfare related to migrant elderly people, etc., and regularly distribute relevant paper materials.
