CAG Betty Havens Award in Longitudinal Research

CAG Betty Havens Award in Longitudinal Research Nomination Form
Not awarded in 2010 (awarded every 2 years beginning in 2007)

The CAG believes that longitudinal studies are an important element in the evidence base for understanding the processes involved in ageing, from both a health and a social perspective. They have particular advantages in their ability to examine multiple exposures, determinants and outcomes, and to measure relationships over time.

Criteria:
  • a scholar or student who has demonstrated excellence in conducting a research project using longitudinal data related to aging or who has published a peer reviewed paper, book chapter or book using longitudinal data in aging,
  • is recognized by members of the Association as having demonstrated excellence in longitudinal research related to aging, as evident in letters of support, and
  • is a member of the Canadian Association on Gerontology.
