Interventionsgerontologie

In gerontology, the need for high-quality interventions and prevention has become more urgent than ever with the retirement of the baby boomer generation, the continuous increase in life expectancy, and the impending shortage of skilled workers. Against this backdrop, the new 'Intervention Gerontology' presents, like its predecessors in 2000 and 2012, a concise overview of the wide range of behavioral interventions in 100 contributions. What is new in 'Intervention Gerontology' is a significantly enhanced assessment of the available research evidence. Chapter 100 provides a comprehensive evaluation of the types of interventions considered in the book, presented as a meta-synthesis. Thus, the book serves as a reliable and critical compass through the diversity of gerontology interventions available today.
