    Abstract: BACKGROUND It has been questioned by researchers in robotics as well in the general public to what extent companion-type robots can support the elderly with the fulfillment of their psychological and social needs. Although these robots have already been used in care settings in Germany, research has referred little to this practical experience in order to analyze their impact and benefit. To start to close this gap, the current article reports on the current use of companion-type robots in care settings, on the effects reported by professional caregivers as well as on the role of psychosocial needs in the acceptance and use of companion-type robots by the elderly. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the first study, 30 professional caregivers with experience in the use of the robot seal Paro in care settings were interviewed regarding Paro's application and the observed effects on their clients. In the second study, three case examples are presented from an interaction study in which vulnerable elderly persons had the robot dinosaur Pleo at their disposal for a maximum period of 15 days. RESULTS Paro is used very flexibly in a variety of settings and with a broad range of user groups (study 1). The reported psychosocial effects were mainly positive but short term. The case examples (study 2) show that psychosocial needs can both foster or hinder robot acceptance and use. They also emphasize the important role of caregivers in the interaction between the elderly and emotional robots in the context of eldercare. CONCLUSION The beneficial and ethical use of companion-type robots in care settings demands a high commitment on the part of the caregivers. Given this prerequisite, emotional robots can be a valuable therapeutic tool.

    Abstract: "Kultur ein Leben lang - Perspektiven fur eine Kultur im Alter", so lautete die Uberschrift einer gemeinsamen kulturpolitischen Stellungnahme des Deutschen Kulturrates, des Dachverbandes der bundesweit arbeitenden Kulturverbande, zusammen mit der Bundesarbeitsgemeinschaft der Seniorenorganisationen (BAGSO) vom 13. Oktober 2009 (www.kulturrat.de/pdf/1666.pdf). Diese Stellungnahme bildet den vorlaufigen Hohepunkt einer diskursiven Annaherung auf beiden Seiten: Die Kultur hat das Alter entdeckt, und die Alteren und diejenigen, die mit ihnen und fur sie arbeiten, haben die Kultur entdeckt. Es wird ein Uberblick uber den Stand des Diskurses in Kultur und kultureller Bildung mit Bezug zur altersdemografischen Situation, zum Alter und zu den Alteren vorgelegt. Abschliessend wird ein Ausblick auf Aktivitaten gegeben, mit denen die Bundesakademie fur kulturelle Bildung Wolfenbuttel diesen Diskurs in praktische Vorhaben umsetzt.

    Abstract: Examines how social support and social control processes affect patterns of illness and disability in later life. Epidemiological evidence is presented which shows that social integration generally results in longer life expectancy. It is argued that social relationships provide emotional support as well as constraints to behavior, effectively reducing the incidence of chronic health problems by decreasing the likelihood that unhealthy behaviors will be initiated in response to stressful circumstances. Similarly, social support and control help encourage compliance with prescribed medical treatment and daily self-care activities after the onset of chronic conditions, enabling the elderly individual to manage disability in later life. Suggestions for future research, with particular emphasis on the interaction between social support and social control processes, are also presented. zitiert von 36
