International Collaborations
Gerontology Center researchers are fortunate to be able to collaborate on a number of projects with colleagues at various international institutions, some of whom are instrumental in the development and implementation of large-scale longitudinal studies.
Our global collaborations include:
Center for Lifespan Psychology, Max Planck Institute for Human Development, Berlin, Germany
Director, Prof. Ulman Lindenberger
Founded in 1981 by the late Paul B. Baltes, the Center for Lifespan Psychology at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development has helped to establish lifespan psychology as a distinct conceptual approach within developmental psychology.
German Socio-Economic Panel Study, German Institute for Economic Research, Berlin, Germany
Gert G. Wagner, Director
The SOEP is a wide-ranging representative longitudinal study of private households. It provides information on all household members, consisting of Germans living in the Old and New German States, Foreigners, and recent Immigrants to Germany. The Panel was started in 1984. In 2006, there were nearly 11,000 households, and more than 20,000 persons sampled.
