Abstract:
This prelude to the subsequent articles sets the stage for a discussion of the topic, “Generations of Gerontology: Aging, Continuity, and Change.” The authors define gerontology as a social system through which generations of gerontologists flow. As people move through this system, gerontology evidences both continuity and change in themes, theories, and methods. The broad sociocultural context within which gerontology exists reinforces, influences, and shapes the persistence of some aspects of gerontology while changing others. The subsequent articles deal with themes, theories, and methods.

This concluding article summarizes key points about continuity and change in gerontology as described in the four previous articles. Synthesis and discussion is focused on five major areas in which gerontological continuity and change are evidenced: 1) transformation of basic themes over time; 2) gerontology's identity crisis; 3) the social ideology of gerontology; 4) evolution and refinement of gerontological ideas and methods; and 5) temporal frameworks.

Abstract:
This paper is a personal account of five “eye-opening” career experiences in the author’s life that illustrate how biographical events shape opportunities and inspire knowledge- making in critical gerontology. Borrowing from Pierre Bourdieu’s methodological concept of “fieldwork in philosophy,” this account suggests that critical thinking only becomes eaningful in the lived contexts in which it is grounded, negotiated, transformed, and shared. Thus theoretical ideas about ageing, despite their abstract nature, have historical and unpredictable stories of their own that are worthy of a “fieldwo

Abstract:
Abstract Gerontology programs in the United States are on the decline despite the need for trained professionals who can serve a growing aging population (Pelham, Schafer, Abbott, & Estes, 2012). For many students, a gerontology course may be their only formal exposure to the concepts of aging. The development of gerontological pedagogy is important, but there is limited knowledge about what is being taught around the nation and to what extent course content reflects the current scope of the discipline.

Abstract Autonomous body of knowledge (BoK) in gerontology is not only an extrinsic requirement to address the challenges of an aging society, but also an intrinsic need for the discipline to achieve its independency. The establishment of such a BoK requires an introspective reflection. This poster presents a review of the progress on the establishment of gerontology’s autonomous BoK, and explores the evolvement of the discipline following the “multidisciplinary-interdisciplinary-transdisciplinary” continuum. The study finds a ‘interdisciplinary paradox’ in current gerontological BoK, which ma

This curriculum will allow older adults who have lost a spouse or partner to learn how to cope with their loss while also learning to rely on new relationships as their main point of support.
