Hello, could you help me with this question? I want to compare the suicide intention of elders who have different living statuses (living alone, with a partner, and with children/grandchildren). What kind of statistical analysis is suitable?

Hi, I found that the percentage of elder suicide among helpline users is twice higher than the general older adults. Can it be evidence for suicide prevention?

Suicide attempts among older adults in Hong Kong are a serious topic. I search the number of using helpline in the past years. Is it a kind of using secondary data?

I have seen some OCOP posts about effect size, and that’s just what I want to ask! When I am trying to compare the effectiveness of an intervention in residential care of elders, what is the threshold of medium effect size?

Hi, I understand that the p-value tells us whether there is a statistically significant difference between the two groups of older women and older men, but how large the difference remains unknown. Is there a way to know that?

When doing an independent t-test about the mean scores of life satisfaction of older women and older men, we found the p-value is greater than 0.05. Does it mean there is no difference between the two groups?

We further want to compare the differences in the life satisfaction level between the young-old and old-old age groups following my previous post. What kind of t-test is suitable?

Following my previous post, during the need assessment stage, can we use a telephone survey to explore elders’ needs or expectations about the food delivery services?

Many elders are deeply affected by the pandemic, especially those living alone. To avoid infection, they may stay at home and suffer from hunger or even starvation. Therefore, our center hopes to provide door-to-door food delivery services to living-alone elders, which could reduce their risk of being infected. So, in this very beginning stage of designing such a new service, what shall we do? Any suggestions, please!

By the way, I found that if using quantitative methods, I could hardly hear how the older adults themselves interpreter their experiences about sexual needs or other related services. Shall I add in-depth interviews in data collection?
