Anti-aging versus positive-aging language in scientific literature: Raising questions for future research by Akbar Azizi-Zeinalhajloo, Haidar Nadrian, Nafiseh Ghassab-Abdollahi, Elham Lotfalinejad, Hassan Rezaeipandari, Devender Bhalla

“…Terms such as "old people," "old age," "elderly", "the elderly" and "the aged" are in the form of anti-aging speaking, and it is recommended that the terms "older people", "older adults", "seniors" and "later life" be used instead of the latter mentioned terms, indicating there is a growing sense that emphasis on a positive perception and illustration of aging. There is a lack of evidence on the diversity, frequency, range of terms and expressions and examples of anti-aging speaking, and also the other end, positive aging. …”
