Built environment and loneliness in later life: productive engagement as the pathway
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings have implications for environmental gerontology theory and practice. Providing more green space and recreational services can significantly improve older adults' helping behavior, social activities and sporting activities, which can further reduce older adults' loneliness.PMID:38566487 | DOI:10.1080/13607863.2024.2329642 (Source: Aging and Mental Health)

Non-affirmation minority stress, internalized transphobia, and subjective cognitive decline among transgender and gender diverse veterans aged 45 years and older
CONCLUSION: Our findings demonstrate that proximal and distal processes of stigma are associated with SCD among TGD veterans and underscore the need for addressing multiple types of discrimination. Above all, these results indicate the lasting sequelae of transphobia and need for systemic changes to prioritize the safety and welfare of TGD people.PMID:38567655 | DOI:10.1080/13607863.2024.2335565 (Source: Aging and Mental Health)

The association between religious beliefs and values with inflammation among Middle-age and older adults
Conclusion: Religious beliefs and values are associated with lower CRP levels among middle-aged and older adults in the U.S. This study adds to the understanding of biological processes underlying the relationship between dimensions of religion and spirituality with better cognitive and physical health, potentially through inflammation.PMID:38553253 | DOI:10.1080/13607863.2024.2335390 (Source: Aging and Mental Health)

Anger and anxiety in older adults: a cross-lagged examination
CONCLUSIONS: The effects did not differ in magnitude, suggesting a balanced reciprocity between anger and anxiety. An understanding of this reciprocal association can inform interventions and strategies aimed at promoting emotional well-being in older individuals. By addressing both anger and anxiety concurrently, interventions may have a more comprehensive impact on improving mental health outcomes in this population.PMID:38516943 | DOI:10.1080/13607863.2024.2320137 (Source: Aging and Mental Health)
