New Opportunities for Advancing Dyadic Health Science in Gerontology


 As dyadic health science enters a golden age, important conceptual, theoretical, and technical challenges remain. This forum brings together perspectives on the burgeoning dyadic literature from several subdisciplines within aging research. We first define key concepts and terms so that interested researchers can navigate the complex and various ways in which dyadic health research is conducted. We discuss exciting scientific advances and close by identifying crucial challenges and considerations that coincide with important future directions for the field.
