    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Gerontology
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • China faces significant demographic shifts due to its aging population.
    • Understanding future population trends is crucial for policy development.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To project China's future population aging.
    • To analyze the impact of mortality improvements on population aging.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized population projections based on 1982 Census data.
    • Incorporated three alternative mortality assumptions.
    • Focused on the influence of mortality on aging trends.

    Main Results:

    • Projections indicate an acceleration of population aging in China, especially post-2000.
