AnnotationThere has been a tendency to portray mental health and well-being later in life in somewhat negative ways. The five articles in this special issue of Quality in Ageing and Older Adults aim to provide some different perspectives. The articles cover: an older individual's positive emotional state and sense of self in the fourth age; the alleviation of loneliness in later life; service user involvement in improving mental health; ensuring patients' mental health after discharge from hospital; and a review of evidence on the role of micro-cultures on long-term residents' mental health and well-being.
