Creative ageing through transformative engagement with music

这项计划旨在评估参与音乐活动如何促进老年人的个人成长、自我效能和目标。使用一种新的混合理论框架，它将产生关于音乐活动中哪些元素能够产生这种变革性效果以及如何拓宽获取途径的新知识。预期成果包括变革性音乐活动的蓝图和设计这些活动的资源，以及指导方针和在线互动地图，以使我们的老龄化人口更广泛地获得这些活动。好处将是改善老年人和照顾者的福祉和生活质量，为音乐团体提供指导，以及为老年护理提供者提供实施音乐活动的资源和建议。

This project aims to evaluate how participation in music activities can foster personal growth, self-efficacy and purpose amongst older adults. Using a novel hybrid theoretical framework, it will generate new knowledge about what elements in music activities deliver such transformative effects and how to widen access. Expected outcomes include a blueprint for transformative music activities, and resources to design them, as well as guidelines and an online, interactive map to make them more widely accessible to our ageing population. Benefits will be improved wellbeing and quality of life for older adults and carers, guidance for music groups, and resources and recommendations for aged-care providers to implement music activities.
