This volume is the fourth in a series designed to facilitate
inter-disciplinary communication between scientists concerned with
the description of societal phenomena and those investigating adult
development. As such, it contains a compilation of papers presented
at an annual conference held at the Pennsylvania State University.

impact of disease and health outcomes with advancing age and are
critiqued by members of related disciplines. In addition, there are
overviews as well as specific discussions about the impact of
cancer, depression, and cardiovascular diseases upon psychosocial
functions.
