New article “Conceptualisation and measurement of healthy ageing” in Social Science & Medicine

This paper enhances the understanding and measurement of Healthy Ageing (HA) through a systematic review of its multidimensional operationalisation.The analysis calls for a standardised, multidimensional HA model integrating individual and contextual factors, recognising the role of structural environmental supports in shaping ageing trajectories. Future research should prioritise comprehensive HA measurement and pursue an interdisciplinary approach bridging conceptual and methodological gaps to inform HA policies effectively.
