Public țintă
The issue has broad interdisciplinary appeal, and would be of particular interest in psychology (e.g., social, developmental, geropsychology, health, clinical, counseling), business, communications, gerontology, medicine, psychology, public health, social work, and sociology. The issue would be useful for undergraduate and graduate courses in these fields. The discussion of policy, especially age discrimination and bias in the workplace and medical field, will be of interest to legislators.Likely readers for this issue are in higher education including scholars, undergraduate and graduate students. However, the relevance of the work for current social issues may draw a large audience. The issue or individual articles can be used as supplements for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in psychology (e.g., social, developmental, geropsychology, health, clinical, counseling), business, communications, gerontology, medicine, psychology, public health, social work, and sociology.
