Tutkimuskuvaus

Tutkimusalueeni käsittelee iäkkäiden ihmisten ulkona liikkumista, siihen yhteydessä olevia yksilö ja ympäristötekijöitä, sekä ulkona liikkumisen vaikutuksia iäkkään ihmisen terveyteen ja hyvinvointiin. Tutkimukseni keskittyy myös liikunnan tasa-arvoon liikunnasta syrjäytymisen ennustajiin ja seurauksiin.
