Glenn Ostir, PhD Associate Director, Rehabilitation |
Dr. Ostir has been with the UTMB Geriatrics Division since 2001. His research focuses on how positive psychological well-being varies by age, gender, socioeconomic status, and ethnic/minority status as well as by the experiences, challenges, and transitions individuals confront as they age. Ongoing longitudinal investigations are exploring associations between positive psychological well being and various health outcomes including disease, functional status and mortality in community-dwelling older adults and those hospitalized for acute illnesses. More recent research has begun to explore factors associated with quality of life including patient satisfaction and satisfaction with community activities in persons with stroke or orthopedic impairment discharged from the hospital.
