Klinische und neurobiologische Perspektiven bei der Untersuchung psychischer Erkrankungen im höheren Lebensalter

  • Conference paper

Zusammenfassung

Die letzte Hälfte dieses Jahrhunderts hat immer deutlicher gezeigt, daß Westeuropa, die USA, die Sowjetunion und die gesamte Wohlstandsgesellschaft altern. Der Anteil der über 65jährigen erreicht hier 18% und wird diese Zahl am Ende des Jahrhunderts überschreiten.
