7. PROJECT SUMMARY - ABSTRACT Elder mistreatment (EM) is a major public health problem with prevalence estimate ranges from 7.6% to 12.7% among older adults. EM causes serious adverse outcomes for its victims including injury, increased service utilization, mental distress and increased mortality. A major barrier in overcoming EM is the inability to accurately identify EM victims. It is estimated that only 1 in 24 cases become known to authorities. This is problematic as older adults are not likely to report that they are being mistreated. To improve the screening for EM and promote self-disclosure we will study the Feasibility of Virtual cOaching in making Informed Choices on Elder Mistreatment Self-Disclosure (VOICES). The overarching aim of this project is to VOICES that runs on tablets and used by older adult's screen for EM. VOICES will be utilizing virtual coaching, interactive multimedia libraries (e.g. graphics, video clips, animations, etc.), techniques form electronic screening for intimate partner violence, and brief motivational interviewing designed to enhance identifying EM among older adults. Adults with disabilities are at a greater risk of EM compared to those without. This is a population that we would like to include in our research study to help make our tool more inclusive. Our initial concept is to present this tool to older adults age 60+ not hard of hearing or without visual impairments that would prohibit their ability to use an iPad. This supplement request would allow us to increase the scope of the patient population to include adults with disabilities that we could not previously include in our initial study design. Our aims are: 1) To perform a preliminary evaluation of the usability of the VOICES screening tool for older individuals with visual or hearing disabilities; 2) To enhance and refine the interactive VOICES tool to be usable and acceptable for older adults with visual or hearing disabilities.

7。项目摘要 - 摘要 老年人虐待（EM）是一个主要的公共卫生问题，患病率估计范围为7.6％至12.7％ 在老年人中。 EM对受害者（包括受伤，服务增加）造成严重的不利结果 利用，精神困扰和死亡率增加。克服EM的主要障碍是无法 准确地识别出受害者。据估计，当局只有24例中只有1个。这是 由于老年人不可能报告他们正在受到虐待，因此有问题。改善筛选 EM并促进自我披露，我们将研究虚拟教练做出明智选择的可行性 关于虐待老年人的自我披露（声音）。该项目的总体目的是运行的声音 在平板电脑上，由老年人屏幕用于EM。声音将利用虚拟教练，交互式 多媒体库（例如图形，视频剪辑，动画等），技术构成电子筛选 亲密的伴侣暴力和简短的动机访谈旨在增强识别年龄较大的EM 成年人。与没有残疾人相比，残疾人的EM风险更大。这是一个人口 我们想在我们的研究中包括，以帮助使我们的工具更具包容性。我们最初的概念是 将此工具呈现给60岁以上的老年人不难听或没有视觉障碍 他们使用iPad的能力。这种补充要求将使我们能够增加患者的范围 人口包括我们以前无法在初始研究设计中包括的残疾人。我们的 目的是：1）对较旧的声音筛选工具的可用性进行初步评估 视觉或听力障碍的人； 2）增强和完善交互式声音工具 可用于视觉或听力障碍的老年人可用。
