By controlling life-style and environmental hazards and seeking appropriate medical care, many people can enjoy a healthy, independent old age; various psychological schema provide models for such "successful" aging. But we must turn to the humanities for a vision of aging that sees meaning in lives characterized by incontinence, immobility, and confusion.
通过控制生活方式和环境危害并寻求适当的医疗护理,许多人可以享受健康、独立的老年生活;各种心理模式为这种“成功”老龄化提供了范例。但我们必须转向人文学科,以获得一种看待老龄化的视角,这种视角能在以失禁、行动不便和认知混乱为特征的生活中找到意义。
