Development and Factor Structure of the Mueller Assessment of Transition (MAT): A Tool for Measuring Older Adults' Wellbeing during Transitions into Assisted Living Facilities
JOURNAL OF AGING AND ENVIRONMENT(2023)
摘要
This paper details the development and factor structure of the Mueller Assessment of Transition (MAT), a novel assessment to measure older adults' wellbeing when transitioning into assisted living facilities (ALF). Older adult participants (n = 69) in nine ALFs in the United States completed the MAT. Exploratory factor analysis identified a 2-factor, 12-item solution of influences on older adults' wellbeing. Further results found significant differences in older adults' wellbeing when transitioning into ALFs before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Implications for healthcare practitioners and future research recommendations are discussed.
