Notes

  1. Gerontology, the science of ageing, is classically divided into four sub-disciplines: (1) social sciences of ageing, (2) psychology of ageing, (3) biology of ageing, and (4) clinical gerontology (within which are positioned the disciplines of geriatric medicine, old age psychiatry, gerontological nursing, among others). It deals with the globality of normal ageing in the first instance.
