Description
Carrie Leach, Daniel Gan, Allyson Brothers, Lana Sargent, and Sarah Dys surveyed gerontologists in 2023 on doing research with communities rather than merely on them. An aging population needs services shaped with older adults, and the field is shifting from enrolling individuals toward empowering communities as partners. Building that skill across the profession first means naming its obstacles.
Their survey ran from March 2021 to December 2022 and drew ninety-eight faculty, staff, students, and trainees across many disciplines. A brainstorming focus group added detail. Reported challenges cluster around recruiting partners, keeping relationships alive, and the reward systems of academia. More than half of respondents identified as a minoritized person, and mixed methods were the norm. Readers get a field's honest self-assessment on partnership science.
