Abstract

This effort examines how life narrative characteristics are related to wisdom and life outcomes. Results suggest that the wisdom subcomponents are related to coping tendencies, life satisfaction, depression, stress, and anxiety. Additionally, positivity in one’s life narrative and the theme of communion are related to the development of wisdom.
