| Annotation | This editorial, first released on the Internet, provides a commentary on a collection of papers published in the Australasian Journal on Ageing (AJA) from 2005 to 2014 on the topic of mental health, and reviewed under the following headings: well-being, quality of life, depression, anxiety, loneliness and elder abuse. There was found to be little published research on anxiety, and there was also a notable gap in literature related to the mental health of family carers. However mental health has been a topic of interest for AJA throughout the past 10 years, particularly the more positive aspects, such as quality of life (QOL) and well-being. (JL). |
