  • Current and Projected Elderly Populations in the Countries of East
    1 Current and Projected Elderly Populations in the Countries of East Asia: Implications for Eldercare Dudley L. Poston, Jr. Texas A&M University College Station, Texas, USA Introduction For the past couple of centuries, the world has been experiencing the greatest demographic upheaval in recorded human history. The first fully modern human, Homo sapiens sapiens, emerged in northern Tanzania in sub-Saharan Africa around 190,000 years ago, where they reached anatomical modernity. But we hardly grew at all in size for the first 189,700 years. We only numbered around 250 million people at the time of Christ. We did not reach 1 billion until 1800 (see Figure 1). Now, in 2017, the population of the world numbers over 7.5 billion. What happened in the past 200 or so years that has resulted in our growing from 1 billion to 7.5 billion? Why was growth so slow for the first 189,800 years? **Figure 1 about here** If we go back in time to around 65,000 BC, the world population then was estimated to number between 400 thousand and 500 thousand people. For thousands of years, the world grew very slowly. About 35,000 BC, the world population numbered around 4 million. By about 8000 BC, it was around 6 million. About this time, give or take a thousand years, the first Agricultural Revolution got underway. With settled agriculture and the domestication of animals, it was possible to support a denser population. There were long periods of stationary growth, that is, no growth, until around the time of Christ, when the world’s population numbered around 250 million (Biraben, 2003).

In response to the increased demands of this aging society, the Taiwan government launched the 10-year Long-term Care Program (LTCP) in 2008. A variety of home- and community-based long term care services were provided to the community-dwelling dependent elderly.

Methodology: The study data were extracted from the database of “Long Term Care Plan- Chiayi City”. In total, 1,294 older adults who were newly eligible and applied for the 10-year Long Term Care Plan in 2013-2015 were included to explore the determinants of the factors with the utilization. Among 1,294 older adults, 680 elders who were enrolled from January 2013 to June 2014 were followed until September 2016 to describe the outcome and the utilization. Andersen and Newman’s Behavioral Model of Health Services Use was applied to guide the selection of variables, analyses, and interpretation.
