In this paper some trends of gerontology during the last 45 years in Germany are described. A survey of the development of gerontology in the former GDR is followed by an analysis of the "Zeitschrift für Alternsforschung" from 1980-1990. The main result is the predominance of publications on the care system since the middle of the 1980s. With regard to the development of gerontology in the western part of Germany, an analysis of publications in the "Zeitsschrift für Gerontologie" from 1968-1991 shows changes in the main topics during this period. Until the middle of the 1970s there was a predominance of publications in the field of: intelligence, learning, memory and perception. The emphasis of publications from 1977-1985 was on stress and coping. In the middle of the 1980s there was an increasing interest in the analysis of social network and competence in the elderly. The paper discusses these trends of gerontological research in the eastern and western parts of Germany.
本文描述了过去45年德国老年学的一些发展趋势。在前东德老年学发展概况之后,对1980年至1990年的《老年学研究杂志》进行了分析。主要结果是自20世纪80年代中期以来护理体系方面的出版物占主导地位。关于德国西部老年学的发展,对1968年至1991年《老年学杂志》上的出版物分析显示了这一时期主要主题的变化。直到20世纪70年代中期,出版物主要集中在智力、学习、记忆和感知领域。1977年至1985年出版物的重点是压力与应对。20世纪80年代中期,对老年人社交网络和能力分析的兴趣日益增加。本文讨论了德国东部和西部老年学研究的这些趋势。
