Summary: | During the past five years 167 articles related
to aging in Turkey have been published. When
adding other scientific works such as research
projects, dissertations and books, the number
of publications rises to 246. Two general
dispositions are observed when assessing
these aging related publications. Firstly, within
these publications older adults are the focus
and not aging life course. Secondly, studies
on aging are solely focused on addressing
problems. However, aging studies are not
simply to be focused on chronological aging
alone. |
