2026年8月5日 更新者：Silke Wiegand-Grefe, Prof. Dr.、Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf
Creating Encounters: Generations in Action - Together Instead of Alone (GemsE)
Elderly people and children and young people (CYP) and from families with mentally ill parents are particularly affected by loneliness.
The GemsE project is investigating whether intergenerational mentoring between seniors and children or young people helps to reduce loneliness and improve the mental well-being and quality of life of both groups.
The aim of the study is to scientifically record the effect of these sponsorships and to find out how such encounters can be successfully organized.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
The GemsE project - Creating Encounters: Generations in Action - Together Instead of Alone is an interventional study evaluating intergenerational mentoring between seniors and CYP from families with parents who have mental illness. The aim is to build stable, voluntary relationships that reduce loneliness and improve the mental well-being and health-related quality of life of both groups.
As part of the study, approximately 40 seniors and 40 children or adolescents will be accompanied in sponsorships over a period of six months. The impact of the sponsorships will be measured using standardized, validated questionnaires on loneliness, psychosocial well-being, and health-related quality of life. The results should provide insights into how intergenerational sponsorships can be effectively designed and integrated into psychosocial care services.

実験的：Establishing intergenerational tandems
The intervention focuses on establishing stable mentoring relationships between senior citizens and children or adolescents from families with parents who have mental health issues. The main objectives of this intervention are to build reliable relationships, reduce loneliness, and promote mental well-being and quality of life for both groups. This intervention is coordinated by the project team at GemsE - Creating encounters: Generations in Action - Together Instead of Alone -. |
The project Creating Encounters Between Generations - Together Instead of Alone (German acronym GemsE) aims to provide social support and integration for both groups by establishing tandems between lonely senior citizens and COPMI, and to scientifically evaluate the effectiveness of these tandems.
The tandems run for six months, with weekly meetings between senior and CYP.
The tandems consist of weekly individual meetings with joint activities such as playing games, learning, cooking, or going for walks.
Senior citizens and CYP engage in tandems built on trust, shared experiences, and cooperation, fostering connections that benefit both sides at eye level.
Project coordinators accompany the participants and support the process management.

Loneliness
時間枠：Change from baseline to 6 months.
|
The primary clinically relevant parameter of the study is the experience of loneliness among children, adolescents, and seniors, measured using the 6-item short version of the De Jong Gierveld Loneliness Scale.The response options are three-point (yes, more or less, no) from 0-6 with higher scores indicating greater loneliness.

Mental well-being
時間枠：Change from baseline to 6 months.
|
The mental well-being of seniors and young adults is assessed using the SDQ 18+, while the SDQ 11-17 is used for self-assessment for adolescents.
Scores range from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater psychological difficulties and poorer mental well-being.
|
Change from baseline to 6 months.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Adults
時間枠：Change from baseline to 6 months.
|
Health-related quality of life in participants aged 18 years and older will be assessed using the SF-12.
Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health-related quality of life.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Children and Adolescents
時間枠：Change from baseline to 6 months.

Health-Related Quality of Life in Adults (EQ-5D-5L)
時間枠：Change from baseline to 6 months
|
Health-related quality of life in participants aged 18 years and older will be assessed using the EQ-5D-5L.
The instrument assesses five health dimensions across 5 response levels, generating a 5-digit health profile in which lower levels indicate fewer health problems, as well as a visual analogue scale (VAS) score ranging from 0 to 100 and, where applicable, a utility index score typically ranging from below 0 to 1, with higher VAS and utility scores indicating better HRQoL.
