New multi-disciplinary study on the quality of life impact of ageing in Austria is now published in the Journal of Aging and Social Policy

As part of an ongoing programme of work at the Department of Health economics on the health economic aspects of older age in association with other demographic, socioeconomic, lifestyle and environmental factors, a multi-disciplinary team at the Center for Public Health researched the development of the quality of life of older people in Austria over a period of more than ten years in a large, representative sample of adults aged 65 and over. Results of the study have now been published in the Journal of Aging and Social Policy.
