| Abstract: | The problem of health disparities across the lifespan and in older adulthood has gained recent attention by the National Institute on Aging (NIA) and other organizations and researchers. These disparities are of significant interest as they greatly impact health, life span, and quality-of-life for countless individuals and create economic burden on societies. Given the critical nature of this problem, this special issue will focus on health disparities for older adults across the lifespan. This introductory article will lay the groundwork for subsequent works on disparities among older ethnic minorities, women, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and trans, as well as rural elders. Concepts critical to an understanding of the topic such as social determinants of health, marginalization, and intersectionality will also be discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
