“…Indeed, priorities among the European Union is the promotion, through different initiatives and public organisms, of collaborative learning between generations (European Commission, 2012 ; ECIL, 2013 )—that is, the so-called intergenerational programs, which is understood as the activities that foster cooperation, interaction, and exchange between two or more generations (Kaplan and Sánchez, 2014 ). These are appropriate complements for lifelong learning among older adults and for the development of a change in the attitudes that young people exhibit toward the elderly (Borrero, 2015 ; Park, 2015 ; Thompson and Weaver, 2016 ). As proven by various authors, participation in interventions of this type yields benefits in terms of improving older adults' health and well-being by facilitating continued intellectual or physical activity in the elderly, and it simultaneously contributes to the encouraging of values and behaviors in children and to the construction of identity among adolescents (Celdrán et al, 2009 ; Galbraith et al, 2015 ; Fujiwara, 2016 ; Sakurai et al, 2016 ).…”

Purpose of the study: The objective of the present review study is to identify the determinant elements of the effectiveness of empirically based interventions (EBI) in the field of intergenerational work, contrasting face-to-face and combined (face-to-face and virtual) intervention modalities against variables relating to this field according to EBI indicators.Design and Methods: An extensive literature search returned a total of 553 studies. Of these, just 50 studies met the inclusion criteria of being an empirical investigation of the effectiveness of intergenerational programs that contain appropriate elaboration on theoretical constructs and methods.Results: The descriptive and multivariate analysis conducted demonstrates that programs with a greater number of EBI controls have the greatest effectiveness, regardless of the intervention mode employed, and that this effectiveness is also modulated by other variables such as the participants' disabilities, their literacy level, or their membership of an organization.Conclusions: We examined the implications of these findings, noting the need to increase the number of virtual interventions that could improve the efficiency of the activities undertaken, and at the same time ensuring that EBI indicators are also fulfilled.

Egungo testuinguruaren aldaketa sozialek belaunaldien arteko erlazioen distantzia areagotzen dute. Hori dela-eta, berebiziko garrantzia hartzen du belaunaldi desberdinen arteko erlazioak bultzatzeko espazioen sorkuntzak. Hainbat autoreren hitzetan hezkuntza formaleko eremua izan daiteke belaunaldi desberdinen arteko erlazioa sortzeko esparrua. Belaunaldi arteko esperientzien gaineko ikerketek azken urteetan gorakada nabaria jaso duten arren, Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan gai horri buruzko hutsunea antzematen da. Horrenbestez, ikerketa honetan Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan belaunaldi arteko esperientziek hezkuntza formalean duten presentzia eta xedeak aztertu dira metodo kualitatiboak eta kuantitatiboak erabiliz. Emaitzen arabera, Euskal Autonomia Erkidegoan hezkuntza formalaren esparruan belaunaldi arteko esperientziak aurrera daramatzaten ikastetxeen kopurua % 4,96 da. Horrela, belaunaldi arteko esperientziak aurrera daramatzaten profesionalen ustez, ezinbestekoa da esperientzia hauek sustatzea gizartearen kohesioa ahalbidetzeko.

“…A review of intergenerational case studies across the United Kingdom led by the Beth Johnson Foundation documented a network of over 850 organisations and practitioners who are actively involved in delivering intergenerational programmes [10]. Specifically, studies of intergenerational programmes in education (including technology) generally point to a positive impact such programmes have had on the participants, such as fostering more positive attitudes toward older adults [11]; improving older people's sense of self-worth, health and well-being [12]; improving classroom atmosphere [13], and a higher overall level of social integration [14].…”

Abstract. In order to meet the technological needs of older adults, and ensure digital inclusion, it is important for digital technology designers to accurately assess and understand older adults' needs and requirements, free from the influence of societal assumptions of their capabilities. This study evaluated the impact of an intergenerational digital technology education programme on younger adults' stereotypes of older people. Using an experimental design, results show that compared to a control group, students taking part in the programme subsequently rated older adults as more friendly but less competent. Practical implications for developing intergenerational education programmes are discussed.
