Recruit 650 older adults in St. Louis into the study - 400 home-delivered meal recipients and 250 receiving in-person meals at senior centers. Describe baseline differences between the two groups in use of senior center programming, technology access and use, and health and quality of life outcomes.\n2. Randomly assign the 400 home-delivered meal recipients to get a GrandPad immediately (GP) or 6 months later (GP-6). Compare the GP and GP-6 groups to in-person meal recipients (IP) on: (A) VSC engagement at 6- and 12-month follow-up; and (B) health and quality of life outcomes at 6- and 12-month follow-up.\n3. Examine longitudinal changes and hypothesized mediating pathways using 5 waves of data from baseline, 3-,6-,9- and 12-month follow-up. Specifically: (A) in the GP-6 group only, compare VSC engagement, health and quality of life outcomes at 6-month follow-up (a period in which they did not have a GrandPad) to 12-month follow-up (a period in which they did have a GrandPad); (B) examine 12-month trends in GrandPad and VSC engagement, health and quality of life outcomes within and across groups; and (C) test mediation of hypothesized explanatory variables from the study's conceptual framework to examine potential causal pathways for health and quality of life outcomes.",[19,20,21],"Social Isolation in Older Adults","Quality of Life (QOL)","Activities of Daily Living",[23],"digital access for older adults","INTERVENTIONAL",[26],"NA",{"count":28,"type":29},650,"ESTIMATED",[31,38],{"type":32,"name":33,"description":34,"armGroupLabels":35},"BEHAVIORAL","Virtual Senior Center - GrandPad","The Virtual Senior Center engages older adults in programs and services online with the help of a GrandPad.",[36,37],"GrandPad1","GrandPad2 - 6mo",{"type":32,"name":39,"description":40,"armGroupLabels":41},"Virtual Senior Center - No GrandPad","Participants will be given information to access the website when they are able from their own phone, tablet, or computer.",[42],"Congregate",[44],{"measure":45,"description":46,"timeFrame":47},"The Social Isolation Scale in Older Adults (Nicholson et al., 2020; The Gerontologist)","This 6-item questionnaire measures the extent to which an individual feels socially unconnected, using 2 related constructs (3 items per construct): quantity of social contacts and sense of relationship.
