The demographic and social structure of most industrialized and developing countries are changing rapidly as infant mortality is reduced and population life span has increased in dramatic ways. In particular, the oldestold (85+) population has grown and will continue to grow. This segment of the population tends to suffer physical and cognitive decline, and little information is available to describe how their positive and negative distal experiences, habits, and intervening proximal environmental influences impact their wellbeing, and how social and health policies can help meet the unique challenges they face. Understanding WellBeing in the Oldest Old is the outcome of a fourday workshop attended by U.S. and Israeli scientists and funded by the U.S.Israel BiNational Science Foundation to examine both novel and traditional paradigms that could extend our knowledge and understanding of the wellbeing of the oldest old. This volume engages social scientists in sharing methods of understanding, and thereby possibly improving, the quality of life of older populations, especially among the oldest old.
