《老年研究杂志》以学术论文为特色，提供了挑战现有理论和实证工作的新解释。文章不需要把老龄化作为一个整体来处理，而是需要处理任何与老龄化经验相关的、与社会和行为科学以及人文学科的广泛关注和主题相关的、可以站得住脚的相关主题。该杂志强调创新和批判——总的来说是新的方向——而不考虑理论或方法取向或学术纪律。欢迎批评的、经验的或理论的贡献。
The Journal of Aging Studies features scholarly papers offering new interpretations that challenge existing theory and empirical work. Articles need not deal with the field of aging as a whole, but with any defensibly relevant topic pertinent to the aging experience and related to the broad concerns and subject matter of the social and behavioral sciences and the humanities. The journal emphasizes innovations and critique - new directions in general - regardless of theoretical or methodological orientation or academic discipline. Critical, empirical, or theoretical contributions are welcome.
