Mental health in the elderly is a topic that draws a lot of
research interest. However, researchers call depression in old age
a "scientific myth," for lack of conclusive findings. While some
researchers have found that depression is highest among the oldest
people. Others found the opposite. To understand this scientific
myth, researchers argue that people of different age groups are
usually exposed to different stressors, thus controlling for
different stressors will lead to different answers. However, there
are situations when all age groups are facing the same stressor.
For example, wars, natural disasters, economic depressions, and
project-induced forced migrations subject people of all ages to the
same adverse conditions. Does the same stressor affect people of
different ages differently? In this study, our interest is to
detect whether there are any age differentials in depression when
individuals of different ages face a common stressor: the impending
forced migration-induced by a large scale dam project-the Three
Gorges Project (TGP) in China. The book is addressed to
professionals in the filed of migration study. It is also directed
towards policy makers.
