Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Geriatry Depression Scale (GDS)

  Geriatric Depression Scale is one of depression scales known globally. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), developed by Yesavage et al. in 1983, is a self-report instrument consisting of 30 items.

  14 weeks

• Resourcefulness Scale

  The Resourcefulness Scale developed by Zauszniewski et al. (2006) will be used to test the degree of resourcefulness in older adults. The scale consists of 28-items on a 6-point Likert-type scale

  14 weeks

• Spiritual Health/Spiritual Self-assessment index for older adult

  consists of 20 items, five measuring each of the constructs: (1) meaning and purpose, (2) hope and coping, (3) transcendence in relationships with God and others, and (4) religious practices. This tool offers options to the participants with a degree of agreement for each item using a five-point Likert scale. A numerical value will be assigned to each category: strongly disagree = 1, disagree = 2, uncertain = 3, agree = 4, and strongly agree = 5. Item responses total score that could range from 20 to 100. Higher scores indicated a greater degree of spiritual wellness. Each of the four subscales consisted of five items, permitting a scoring range from 5 to 25. Items one through five, representing measuring hope and coping; six through ten will measure transcendence; eleven through fifteen for meaning and purpose; and sixteen through twenty focused on religious practices.

The intervention will be applied every week for 6 weeks. The level of depression, resourcefulness, spiritual resourcefulness, and spiritual health will be tested at the first week before the intervention (T0), the 3rd week (T1), the 6th week right after the interventions (T2), 1 month follow-up after the interventions (T3), and 2 months post-intervention.

Interventions

Drawing Intervention OTHER

The primary sections of Drawing Intervention will be the "art-making" and "art-sharing" sections. During the art-making segment, the group leader will guide the participants through a paper-warming exercise before assigning them a specific subject to draw freely for 20-30 minutes. The leader will then ask participants to talk about the meaning of their artwork, encouraging them to explore their emotions regarding the theme and their drawing. This procedure will be implemented in each segment of the intervention (6 sessions).
