DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Educators in the field of aging report a lack of multimedia on midlife. They express a desire for videos on select topics faced by the rapidly growing numbers of midlife adults. New research on midlife reveals that lifestyle choices made in the middle years determine health and vitality in old age (Rowe and Kahn, 1998). Creative Action Inc. plans to develop, produce, and market an innovative series of videos and lesson guides to educators and professionals who teach about midlife in college/university and professional settings. The videos will incorporate cutting edge research to portray key issues and solutions to problems confronting people in their middle years. The proposed product is designed to increase knowledge of midlife as well as to equip current and future professionals to provide information and potential solutions to their clients/patients. During Phase I, a panel of midlife experts will select three topics to be developed into storyboards that will be evaluated by educators and professionals in focus groups. One topic will be developed into a prototype video, which will be tested in classroom and agency settings for engagement, information, relevancy, usefulness, and elicitation of empathy. Results of Phase I research will guide product refinement and the development of additional videos in Phase II. Phase II research will lead to video refinements and development of additional videos for Phase III commercialization.

描述（由申请人提供）：老龄化领域的教育工作者报告缺乏有关中年的多媒体。他们表达了对有关快速增长的中年成年人所面临的特定主题的视频的渴望。关于中年的新研究表明，中年时选择的生活方式决定了晚年的健康和活力（Rowe 和 Kahn，1998）。 Creative Action Inc. 计划为在学院/大学和专业环境中教授中年知识的教育工作者和专业人士开发、制作和销售一系列创新视频和课程指南。这些视频将结合前沿研究来描绘人们中年面临的关键问题和解决方案。拟议的产品旨在增加对中年的了解，并帮助当前和未来的专业人员向其客户/患者提供信息和潜在的解决方案。在第一阶段，中年专家小组将选择三个主题开发成故事板，由焦点小组中的教育工作者和专业人士进行评估。一个主题将被开发成一个原型视频，并将在课堂和机构环境中测试其参与度、信息、相关性、实用性和同理心的激发。第一阶段的研究结果将指导第二阶段的产品改进和其他视频的开发。第二阶段的研究将导致视频的改进和第三阶段商业化的额外视频的开发。
