Abstract
The aim of this literature review was to explore how has digital storytelling been used among older adults with typical aging, with dementia, and with cognitive impairment in interventions? We searched eight databases for studies that investigated the use of digital storytelling in older adults. Four researchers independently applied selection criteria and extracted data from the selected papers. One researcher with a broad experience in gerontology and research acted as a third reviewer to solve conflicts. Covidence software was used to manage the literature review. A total of 3366 references were retrieved from the databases, 13 duplicates were removed. After that 231 references are being analyzed by the team. Preliminary results show that digital storytelling is used to promote social engagement and reminiscence in older adults; to preserve traditions; and, to facilitate connectedness between elderly and young people including students. Some of the technologies used are multimedia that combine family photographs, film clips, audio narration, and music along with documentary video-making. Themes in the stories include older adults’ lives, experiences living with diseases, and factors that contribute to longevity. Positive changes in older adults are confidence, level of speech, sense of purpose and fellowship, social engagement, motivation and, intent to change one’s health behavior. Most of the studies used a qualitative approach. The literature on digital storytelling for older adults is in its early stages and the use of artificial intelligence is promising for facilitating the construction of the digital stories with older adults.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
