Research on the phenomenon and mechanisms of language in aging can provide older adults with language training, increase their active aging, and offer improved information communication channels for an aging society, which will bring a series of clinical and social benefits to handle problems in aging and language across the world. This book will be of interest to researchers in linguistics, sociology, gerontology and related fields. Lihe Huang is Tenured Professor, Deputy Director of Office of Humanities and Social Sciences, and General Secretary of Research Center for Ageing, Language and Care at Tongji University, China. He has published widely in language aging and multimodal pragmatics and undertaken several research projects granted by different institutions. His current research interest is Gerontolinguistics, i.e. utilizing multifaceted disciplinary approaches to conduct fundamental research on linguistic behavior and cognitive pattern of older adults with dementia in China. Boyd Davis is Bonnie E. Cone and Graduate Professor Emerita at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, USA and visiting research professor at Research Center for Ageing, Language and Care at Tongji University, China. Her current work emphasizes two areas: the creation of dementia care scenarios for second language and immigrant healthcare workers as graphics in Mandarin, Vietnamese, Filipino, Latin American Spanish, Haitian Creole and several kinds of English; and the exploration of the use of social robots in activities expanding communication among persons living with dementia. 0aSociolinguistics. 0aQuality of life. 0aDevelopmental psychology. 0aSociology. 0aSocial groups. 0aAge distribution (Demography).14aSociolinguistics.24aQuality of Life Research.24aDevelopment across Lifespan.24aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging.24aAging Population.1 aHuang, Lihe.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt1 aDavis, Boyd.eeditor.4edt4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303168788408iPrinted edition:z978303168790708iPrinted edition:z978303168791440uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-68789-1
