Participation of older adults in health programs and research: a critical review of the literature.

W B Carter1, K Elward, J Malmgren, M L Martin, E Larson.   

Abstract

This collection of five papers evaluates the participation of older adults in clinical trials, health promotion/disease prevention initiatives, and health programs designed to maintain or improve the functioning of chronically ill older adults. Understanding the willingness or unwillingness of older adults to participate in these programs is critical to the development and implementation of health programs and policies for this population. In this introductory paper we briefly review illustrative literature to provide both an overview of the participation of older adults in health programs as well as background information relevant to the symposium papers.
