HOME SOCIOLOGY IN THE NEWS AUTHOR'S MESSAGE Sociologically, aging is defined as the combination of biological, psychological, and social processes that affect people as they grow older. The population in the United States and other industrialized countries is graying. In this chapter, you will learn social gerontology and other sociological theories of aging. Some of the special challenges and problems that the elderly face will be examined. The chapter concludes with a discussion of the impact of globalization and the graying of the world population on the treatment of elderly throughout the world. The Graying of U.S. Society "Graying" happens when societies experience an increase in the proportion of the population becoming elderly. It is the result of two long-term demographic trends in industrialized countries: Lower fertility rates (the tendency of families to have fewer children) Lower mortality rates and longer life expectancy The populations in the United States and other industrialized countries are graying.

The department also offers sociological areas of emphasis in religion; family, sex, and gender; politics and economy; and law and society.
