Aged adults can image positively-stable near and far future

Abstract

The aim of this study was to examine whether future simulation in one's life (one, three, five, and ten years later) for 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s elderly groups could differ from that in undergraduate students. The results showed that (1) female had positively future thought, compared to male, especially middle-aged group; (2) consistently, the degree of the future simulation for male decreased with age, but not for female; (3) people had more positively future simulation in their life for far future (10 years later), but not for near future(1 year later), especially in undergraduate students, whereas the old-old people simulated positively both in near and far future. These results suggest that healthy old-old people had positive future image both in near and far future, but not for middle-aged group(especially male).
