Description
Linda Waite and Hui Liu introduce a set of papers on how to study older LGBT adults in the United States, in this 2024 overview. The population numbers roughly nine to eleven million people and faces wider health gaps than peers, gaps that grow across a lifetime. A national academy has called for research that explains where those gaps come from.
The session's papers tackle method head on. One presents a fresh way to recruit a nationally fair sample of this hard to reach group. Another reports early health findings from a pilot using that method. A third compares social traits and health against other older adults in two national samples, and a fourth extends the comparison to the United Kingdom. The overview argues better design will bring better answers.
