Studying the trajectories and mediators of old-age problematic alcohol use and the agency of older persons
type: Dataset
description: The study sought insight into the experiences and perspectives of older persons on ageing, alcohol use, treatment, and recovery from an alcohol problem, as well as their understanding of what healthy ageing entails. The study, hence, focused on the subjective experiences of older persons, for an understanding of the challenges and strengths they face in relation to alcohol use and healthy ageing. The dataset consists of 10 semi-structured interviews. In the interview with eight men and two women aged between 61 and 73 years, we explored their perspectives and experiences of ageing, alcohol use and problems, treatment and alcohol recovery. The interviews were conducted online through Zoom. Participants joined online or dialed the Zoom number. Each interview lasted in average 101 minutes (between 74 and 128 minutes). The interviews were audio recorded and transcribed. Interview language was Swedish. Data analysis was performed on the transcribed text in the original language. The text was 207 A4 pages long, 127663 word count (speakers role). It was saved as PDF/A format with the file name "interaction-between-alcohol-and-ageing-and-personal-agency-of-older-persons.pdf" ********** The participants were interviewed: 1st: About their experience and perception of ageing.

About their alcohol use: * How old were you when you had your first drink? How did it feel? * How would you describe your relationship with alcohol? Tell me how it looked like in the past from when you were younger until you decided to seek treatment? * How would you describe your current relationship with alcohol? * Has anything changed since you received treatment for alcoh…
