Abstract

Older adults (N=226, ages 63-99 years) reported feeling, on average, significantly younger physically, mentally, and socially relative to their chronological ages. Correlation and regression analyses showed different patterns of relationships, for men and women, between each subjective age variable and other health, well-being, satisfaction, and demographic variables.
