Summary:	Interviewing older persons requires specific attention to a number of age-related issues. These may include changes in cognitive processes, hearing and seeing impairments, and other health issues but also a different pace of life or increased tiredness.

Paying careful attention to these aspects when interviewing older persons can increase rapport and trust and consequently enhance the depth of these interviews.
