Defining the Critical Issues for Aging Research in the Humanities

From an article of the Journal of Medical Humanities:

“Intergenerational storytelling (IGS) has recently emerged as an arts- and humanities-focused approach to aging research. While IGS holds promise as an emerging field of arts- and humanities-based aging research, current limitations include a lack of shared data profiles and comparable study designs, limited cross-cultural representation, and insufficiently intersectional analysis of widespread IGS practices. To encourage more robust standards for future study design, data collection, and researcher reflexivity, [the authors] propose seven evidence-based recommendations for evolving IGS as a humanities-based approach to research in aging and intergenerational relations.”
