Inhaltsangabe:

Drawing on data from a 20-year longitudinal study, Atchley (gerontology, Naropa Institute, Boulder, CO), concludes that most older persons maintain a strong sense of purpose and self despite the challenges of aging. The author presents his theory of continuity in how individuals interpret and adapt to experience, methodological issues, and supporting evidence. Annotation c.
