Gerontechnology
(From: http://www.gerontechnology.info/Journal/ )
This is the first international scientific journal devoted to the domain of Gerontechnology. As such it has an international focus with interdisciplinary content. The papers in each issue reflect the broad categories of interest in this field: health, housing, mobility, communication, leisure and work.A unique feature of Gerontechnology is the clear-cut commitment to highlight the central ideas of Gerontechnology. By tuning the balance between two milestones in current development - ageing and technology -, the journal points at clarifying their complex intertwinements.Gerontechnology distinguishes itself from gerontology journals by explicit consideration of the technological environment as a domain for improving quality of life and enabling realisation of ambitions and goals of older persons.In comparison with technological journals, Gerontechnology focuses on embedding innovations in the lives of older persons and in adaptations to ageing processes. It sheds light on the context of use - or lack of use - of appropriate technology by older persons.

Age and Ageing
(From:http://ageing.oxfordjournals.org/)

Age and Ageing is an international journal publishing refereed original articles and commissioned reviews on geriatric medicine and gerontology. Its range includes research on ageing and clinical, epidemiological, and psychological aspects of later life.





Ageing & Society (From:http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayJournal?jid=ASO)

Ageing & Society is an interdisciplinary and international journal devoted to the understanding of human ageing and the circumstances of older people in their social and cultural contexts. It draws contributions and has readers from many academic social science disciplines, and from clinical medicine and the humanities. In addition to original articles, Ageing & Society publishes book reviews, occasional review articles and special issues.




As the average human life expectancy has increased, so too has the impact of ageing and age-related disease on our society. Ageing research is now the focus of thousands of laboratories that include leaders in the areas of genetics, molecular and cellular biology, biochemistry, and behaviour. Ageing Research Reviews (ARR) covers the trends in this field. It is designed to fill a large void, namely, a source for critical reviews and viewpoints on emerging findings on mechanisms of ageing and age-related disease. Rapid advances in understanding of mechanisms that control cellular proliferation, differentiation and survival are leading to new insight into the regulation of ageing.


Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics
(From:http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/506044/description#description)

Archives of Gerontology and Geriatrics provides a medium for the publication of papers from the fields of experimental gerontology and clinical and social geriatrics. The principal aim of the journal is to facilitate the exchange of information between specialists in these three fields of gerontological research. Experimental papers dealing with the basic mechanisms of aging at molecular, cellular, tissue or organ levels will be published.



Assistive Technology Journal

【內容簡介】
  人口老化過去大多數只出現在工業化國家,如今情況大不相同,大多數東亞國家現在也浮現人口快速老化的趨勢。然而,這是人類史上第一次老人活得更健康、更活躍,更具生產力。許多銀髮族擁有龐大的金融資產,也有意願與能力持續工作至70甚至80幾歲,以延長所得年限。
  在富裕的亞太地區──包含日本、韓國、台灣、香港、新加坡與澳洲──老年家庭2005年的潛在消費總金額估計達8,680億美元,2015年將增加到1.5兆美元。在新興亞洲──包含中國、印度、泰國、馬來西亞與菲律賓──2015年會成長至4,300億美元,這意味著每年的成長率達10.8%,遠高於富裕亞洲。
