Advancing the understanding, measurement and monitoring of healthy ageing: A systematically derived framework and dataset mapping associated constructs, measures and measurement ap... by Andreea Alexandra Piriu, Maria Vittoria Bufali, Giulia Cappellaro, Amelia Compagni, Aleksandra Torbica

“…However, the lack of a standardised framework and inconsistent interpretations of key constructs hinder meaningful comparison across studies and contexts. This article presents a systematically derived framework and structured dataset that capture the constructs, measurement approaches and methodological advancements involved in operationalising healthy ageing.The framework and dataset originate from the systematic review conducted by Piriu et al. (2025), which comprehensively maps the range of concepts, constructs and operational dimensions – measures, metrics, instruments and scales – used in 55 empirical studies that operationalise healthy ageing, each addressing at least two of the three core domains identified by the World Health Organization: intrinsic capacity (IC), functional ability (FA) and the environment (ENV). …”
