Abstract

This project is focusing on the question how do older adults adapt in their daily lives to short- and long-term challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The aim is to identify resources and risk factors in older age that moderate the consequences of the pandemic and unintended outcomes of preventive measures advised for the public.
