Abstract

The current research advances the understanding of mixed findings in the relationship between age and well-being. Two studies show how the relationship between age and well-being is influenced by uncertainty avoidance. Differences in the association between age and well-being in low/high UA cultures can be explained by distinct coping strategies.
