Continuity After a Stroke: Implications of Life-course Disruption in Old Age
Abstract
Life-course disruption caused by a stroke and subsequent attempts on the part of stoke victims to restore continuity was explored through qualitative research with a sample of 216 persons. This research suggests: 1) that theory in gerontology could be deepened by framing continuity to include discontinuous experience in late life; and 2) that research on what elderly persons themselves make of continuity--how they perpetuate it or recreate it and the obstacles they perceive in doing so--may inform our understanding of the experience of old age and lead to applications in the practice of gerontology that address the disruption illness poses for people's lives.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
