归属感是人类的基本需求。在2019冠状病毒病疫情期间，透过面对面的社交活动实施该计划已不再可能。在这项研究中，我们调查的归属感，以及它是如何制定的，在英国的老年人之间的纵向变化。此外，我们还研究了随着时间的推移，归属感和弹性的相互作用。我们采用纵向定性研究设计，探索老年人在COVID-19大流行一年（2020年4月至2021年4月）期间的经历。分析是用建构主义扎根理论进行的。在大流行之前，老年人可以自由地与家人和朋友建立社会关系，通常在他们感到受到重视并获得积极经验的社会活动团体中进行。在疫情期间，面对面制定的责任感减少;需要做出调整以保持归属感。老年人的经验是异质的。我们研究三个主题。第一，在大流行之前，人们是如何制定《公民权利和政治权利国际公约》的。例子包括：家庭假期，相互拜访，体育活动，与朋友和家人一起吃饭，以及参观文化活动。第二，参与者如何适应和保持他们的社会参与。例子包括：远距离面对面活动;学习新技术。第三，对一些人来说，幸福感差距出现并持续存在。有无法挽回的家庭成员或朋友的损失，社会团体的关闭，或退出团体的优先事项发生变化。结果，受挑战的幸福感，参与者表达了增加的孤独，焦虑，社会孤立，挫折和抑郁的感觉。对许多人来说，归属感的破坏不再能促进恢复力，一些以前有恢复力的参与者不再有恢复力。
The sense of belonging is a fundamental human need. Enacting it through face-to-face social activities was no longer possible during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this study, we investigate how the sense of belonging, and how it is enacted, changed longitudinally amongst older adults in the UK. In addition, we examine the interplay of the sense of belonging and resilience over time. We employed a longitudinal qualitative research design to explore the experiences of older adults during one year of the COVID-19 pandemic (April 2020-April 2021). The analysis was undertaken with constructivist grounded theory. Before the pandemic older adults were free to engage in social relationships with family and friends, often enacted within social activity groups where they felt valued and gained positive experiences. During the pandemic face to face enactment of belongingness was reduced; adjustments needed to be made to maintain the sense of belonging. The experience of older adults was heterogeneous. We examine three themes. First, how belongingness was enacted prior to the pandemic. Examples include: family holidays, visiting each other, sports activities, eating with friends and family, and visiting cultural events. Second, how participants adapted and maintained their social involvement. Examples include: distanced face-to-face activities; and learning new technology. Third, for some, a belongingness gap emerged and persisted. There was an irretrievable loss of family members or friends, the closure of social groups, or withdrawal from groups as priorities changed. As a consequence, of challenged belongingness, participants expressed increased loneliness, anxiety, social isolation, frustration and, feelings of depression. For many, the disrupted sense of belonging no longer fostered resilience, and some previously resilient participants were no longer resilient.
