African American Caregivers Finding Resilience Through Faith

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The field of gerontology takes a multidisciplinary approach to the study of aging and issues related to older adults by combining knowledge from the fields of biology, medicine, political science, psychology, sociology, social work, and other disciplines. The study of religion and spirituality in each of these fields has increased dramatically as evidenced by the explosion of high-quality, peer-reviewed articles that have been produced within each of these sub-disciplines in the past several years.
