Resumen

Introduction: The increase in population aging establishes new risk scenarios in the face of the intensification of disasters due to climate change; however, previous experiences and collective memory would generate opportunities for older people to acquire adaptive and coping capacities in the face of these events.

Objective: To analyze the theoretical-methodological characteristics presented by the studies carried out between the years 2012 and 2022 about the experience and collective memory of the older adult in the face of climate change.

Method: A systematic literature review (SLR) was carried out following the guidelines of the PRISMA statement. The databases consulted were Web of Science, Scopus, EBSCO host, and Redalyc, selecting 40 articles in Spanish, English, and Portuguese.

Results: The importance of experience and collective memory in the face of disasters as an adaptive factor in older people was identified. In addition, sharing experiences allows them to give new meaning to what happened, emphasizing confidence in their personal resources and self-management capacity and fostering perceived empowerment.

Discussion: It is essential that in future studies the knowledge provided by the older adult can be privileged, recognizing the importance of their life histories and favoring the active role in their development and wellbeing.

Webinar como Experto
Mutantes Org
22 de julio 2021


El pasado 22/07 estuve participando en un interesante espacio organizado por @mutanteorg en donde pude aportar algunas reflexiones en torno a la comprensión del cambio climático y sus implicaciones en la salud mental de las personas.

Del mismo modo, analicé dicho fenómeno fundado en los saberes y experiencias acumuladas en torno a la Psicología de la Emergencia y Desastres. La jornada fue todo un éxito, puesto que los cupos se llenaron en cosa de horas…




Gracias al equipo de organizadoras por esta maravillosa invitación!
