  • Examining Differences in the Predictive Capacity of Educational Polygenic Scores on Physical Limitations Among Older Adults With European or African Ancestry

    Open Access•Kenzie Latham-Mintus, Monier Williams et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Aging and Health•2026

    This research examined whether educational polygenic scores were associated with physical limitations among older adults with European or African ancestry. In the European ancestry sample, we found that education polygenic scores were significantly associated with physical limitations, net of age, sex, and current socioeconomic status. In the African ancestry sample, education polygenic scores were not associated with physical limitations in any …

  • Attitudes toward Climate Change Risk Among Older People

    Open Access•Giorgio Di Gessa, Paola Zaninotto et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2026

    Contrary to common assumptions, most older adults are engaged with CCR, but there is notable heterogeneity, with ∼27% reporting ambivalent/uncertain, or dismissive views. Inclusive and effective climate policy should recognise this diversity, employing outreach and communication strategies that stress personal relevance and actionable solutions, especially targeting those with ambivalent/uncertain views

  • Time and the convoy model

    Open Access•James Iveniuk, I’deyah Ricketts et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2026•Referencias: 15

    We found evidence for disparities in social network turnover by race, but no evidence that these disparities impact changes in depression. We conclude with implications for the convoy model and syntheses between convoy perspectives and theories of network advantage

  • Are Friendship Characteristics Associated With Mental Health Declines Among Older Adults With and Without Acquired Activities of Daily Living Limitation

    Open Access•Kenzie Latham-Mintus, Matthew Manierre et al.•ARTICLE•Research on Aging•2025

    Older adults with Activities of Daily Living (ADL) limitation typically report worse mental health. Friendships may prevent major mental health declines among older adults, and this association may vary by ADL limitation status. Using data from Health and Retirement Study (HRS) (Waves 2006–2020), this research examined whether friendship characteristics, including few close friends, positive and negative support, frequency of contact, and providi…

  • Midlife Gender Discrimination and Later-Life Cognition

    Open Access•M A Andersson, Catherine E Harnois et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025

    Objective Discrimination of various types is associated with social stress, which in turn is implicated in later-life cognitive decline. However, women who have higher socioeconomic status and who are younger are more likely to perceive gender discrimination. This leaves unclear whether gender discrimination bears independent, detrimental links to later-life cognition. Methods We implement longitudinal regression analyses of the 1995-2015 Nationa…

  • Sex differences in the association between occupational environment exposures and cognitive function outcomes in later life

    Open Access•Qiuchang Cao, Dawn Carr et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Referencias: 8

    Findings suggest that differences in how men and women respond to occupational exposures may be an important factor contributing to sex-based disparities in later-life cognitive outcomes. Future research is needed to determine how both work and non-work exposures across the life course differently shape long-term cognitive health outcomes in men and women in later life

  • Voluntary participation and life satisfaction among Chinese older adults

    Open Access•Yuanyuan Wu, Chang Yü et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Referencias: 17

    Objectives Theories of productive aging suggest that voluntary participation can enhance the subjective well-being of older adults. However, the extent to which this relationship is confounded by factors such as individual health status, social roles, socioeconomic status (SES), and community factors remains uncertain. This study aims to address this selection effect while simultaneously exploring the heterogeneity in life satisfaction associated…

  • Age moderates the social participation-mental health association differently in urban and rural areas

    Open Access•Anqi Chen, Shannon Ang et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Referencias: 14

    Objectives Recent studies suggest that the association between social participation (SP) and mental health may change with age, although the direction of this relationship is unclear. Although some suggest that the mental health benefits of SP decline with age, others argue they become more important in later life. In this article, we suggest a context-dependent divergence in aging trajectories: whereas urban older adults continue to gain mental …

  • Educational Disparities in Age-Related Hearing Loss and Hearing Aid Use Across Age, Gender, and European Region

    Open Access•Samuel Nemeth, P A Thomas et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Referencias: 6

    Objectives This study adds to the literature on the relationship between social relationships and cognitive function by using social integration theory to examine whether a sense of community belonging at different ages is related to cognitive function in later life. We also examine whether the relationship between community belonging, and cognitive function is distinct among White, Black, and Hispanic older adults. Methods Using data from the He…

  • Social relationships and end-of-life quality among older adults in the United States

    Open Access•Kafayat Mahmoud, Deborah Carr et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 10

    Our results offer modest support for marital control and compensatory frameworks; no particular social tie is uniformly protective at the end of life. Health care providers should help dying patients identify significant others who can best participate in end-of-life preparations and care. Hospital patient advocates also could aid those who lack close kin at the end of life

  • A network comparison of frailty structures among urban and rural older adults in China

However, the interrelationships between various health deficit domains in frailty and how these differ between urban and rural settings remain unclear. This study examines urban-rural influences on older adults’ frailty using a network perspective. Methods Using data from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudi…

  • Intersectional discrimination and mental health in later life

    Open Access•Yi Wang, Yifan Lou et al.•ARTICLE•The Journals of Gerontology…•2025•Referencias: 20

    Objectives Despite extensive literature that examines the relationship between discrimination and health, less is known about specific discrimination attributions and how they may differentially associate with health. To address this gap, the current study investigated the latent typology of discrimination attributions and the intersectional attributions’ relationships with mental health in later life. Methods Data came from 6,282 respondents in …
