Annotation | The author reassesses his views in his 1988 article on elder abuse in "The Gerontologist", in comparison with the findings of the US National Elder Abuse Incidence Study (NEAIS). He questions the inclusion of self-neglect as a category of abuse. Otherwise, the Study's observations should be used to track expenditures, to know how well the problem of elder abuse is being tackled. (RH). |
