Australasian Journal on Ageing is Australia's specialist journal on ageing. It is published quarterly by COTA National Seniors Policy Secretariat [formerly Council on the Ageing (Australia)]. Since 1981 it has informed professionals on ageing issues. It provides a balance of research papers, opinion articles, professional practice updates, innovations in aged care and book reviews.
In 1998 the title changed from Australian to Australasian Journal on Ageing to better reflect its role in the Asia-Pacific region.
The Journal covers social gerontology, home and community services, health services research, geriatric medicine and biology of ageing.
It is the official journal of
