Once the reader understands the origins and nature of adjustment to aging, a second innovation encompasses the development of a proposed empirical model of adjustment to aging and the analysis of its components and correlates. Measures to assess adjustment to aging, policies, programs and interventions comprising adjustment to aging and its components and correlates will also be addressed. Another innovation includes the multidimensional experience of adjustment to aging from the cultural perspective. Lastly, it addresses areas of future development related to this construct. Future policies and interventions in older populations need to integrate and debate the role of adjustment to aging, and ultimately consider a variety of different strategies, each with a different set of costs and benefits. Health and social professionals will be at the vanguard of policy making and community and institutional interventions. Hence, resources and tools to adequately prepare these individuals for the future years will be vital. It is the author's hope that this resource can be valuable for professionals and students working within the field of aging, as they develop research and intervention policies encompassing adjustment to aging in the coming years. . 410 0$aInternational Perspectives on Aging,$x2197-5841 ;$v15 606 $aAging 606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aQuality of life 606 $aAging$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X11000 606 $aGeriatrics/Gerontology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33150 606 $aQuality of Life Research$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X23000 615 0$aAging. 615 0$aGeriatrics. 615 0$aQuality of life. 615 14$aAging. 615 24$aGeriatrics/Gerontology. 615 24$aQuality of Life Research. 676 $a305.2601 700 $avon Humboldt$b Sofia$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01064885 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253310003321 996 $aConceptual and Methodological Issues on the Adjustment to Aging$92541353 997 $aUNINA
