Active Aging

The Contribution of Psychology

Produktbeschreibung

Aging well and continuing to be active are often regarded as the goals in life, from individual, family, community, and population perspectives. This implies good health and physical fitness, good cognitive and positive emotional-motivational functioning, and social participation and engagement. This book shows how psychologists and psychological science as a whole can face the challenge of promoting optimal and active aging in a society that is growing ever older.
