Prac��oners, authori�es, and researchers must become aware of cultural reali�es and meanings assigned to forms of adversity. Our assessment and defini�on of poten�al abuse, mistreatment, or self-‐neglect may not correspond with that of the clients’ cultural expecta�ons and cultural experiences.

Determinants of Cultural Influences on Elder Abuse, Mistreatment, and Self-‐Neglect
� Cultural and ethnic homogeneity misperceived � Immigra�on status and an�-‐immigra�on climate � Accultura�on, assimila�on and cultural Iden�ty � Tradi�onal cultural values � Gender � Cultural expecta�ons and prior cultural experiences � Transgenera�onal effects
Accultura�on, Assimila�on, and Cultural Iden�ty
� Accultura�on � Assimila�on � Country of origin oriented vs. American oriented � Lack of Cultural Group Reference � Loss of Social Support Network
Transgenera�onal Determinants � Mul�genera�onal households � Language Barrier � Immigra�on Status � The Community Broker � Dependency leads to isola�on

The Role of Cultural Values as Determinants of Elder Abuse or Mistreatment � Familism ◦ Familismo ◦ Filial Piety
� Paternalism ◦ Tradi�onal Patriarchal Households ◦ Machismo
Lost in Transla�on
� Language � Cultural expecta�ons � Juxtaposi�on of cultures � Elder distrust of ins�tu�ons
Factors Contribu�ng to Abuse, Neglect, and Exploita�on: � Rapidly older adult popula�on Growth � Alcohol and drug dependency � Poverty � Lack of affordable housing and high costs of u�lity bills � Inadequate access to health care and costly medica�ons � Toxic family rela�onships � Dependence of family or others on the income of older
adults � Violence as a coping mechanism in society � Physical and mental stress of Denial of benefits, such as SSI and Medicaid, to some
immigrants

Cultural Associated Risk Factors
Historical segrega�on and an�-‐immigra�on climate Healthcare barriers, discrimina�on, and exclusion Lack of recogni�on of cultural values or cultural iden�ty Lack of financial stability Undocumented immigra�on status Limited social support network Limited access to ins�tu�onal support Nega�ve cultural values and gender roles

Cultural Associated Protec�ve Factors
Freedom of cultural expression and associa�on Cultural values and tradi�ons that promote sense of community
Language Established social support networks Posi�ve cultural values and gender roles
Parra-Cardona et al., 2007
Sugges�ons for A�ending to Cultural Issues
� Iden�fy cultural iden�ty preference � Iden�fy degree of adherence to/or acceptance of cultural iden�ty of family members
� Assess for understanding of situa�on � Ensure cultural needs and expecta�ons are met � Seek the counsel others knowledgeable of the culture

Assessments and Differen�al Profiles of Elder Mistreatment and Self-‐Neglect
Elder Mistreatment and Self-‐Neglect Screening
� Psychometrics ◦ No Construct Valida�on Studies (Are we hi�ng the targets and are we doing so reliably?) ◦ No Measurement Invariance Studies (Are we hi�ng the targets and doing so reliably for groups with different characteris�cs?)
� Unable to conduct broad epidemiologic surveillance studies and therefore, the true prevalence and incidence es�mates of Elder Mistreatment and Self-‐Neglect remain unknown
� APS agencies across the country are star�ng to re-‐evaluate their assessment tools and processes for iden�fying cases
