[tab] [content title="Summary"] The primary goal of this book is to provide an interdisciplinary exploration of key issues in current ageing research, specifically health, competence, and well-being. These topics are examined through three converging research streams: social-ecological research, which emphasizes the role of social and physical environments in shaping ageing processes such as daily competence; geropsychology, which adopts a life-span developmental perspective on ageing; and epidemiology, which provides essential data on disease, function, and prevention. Each of these three research areas is introduced briefly, followed by three empirical chapters addressing the latest key research questions. Renowned experts in the field then provide further discussion on each chapter. This volume not only connects ageing research with policy considerations and implications but also bridges European research with the global scientific community’s knowledge base on ageing. It will be of significant interest to scholars and graduate students in ageing research, particularly in the social and behavioral sciences, as well as in fields such as epidemiology, geriatrics, geropsychiatry, demography, and biogerontology.
