AIM
In Japan, increasing human longevity has forced society to rethink the notion of what constitutes 'successful ageing'. This study attempts to advocate a new concept of successful ageing that involves complete acceptance of the ageing process.
METHOD
Research was based on semi-structured interviews with 15 community dwelling oldest-old (aged 85 years and above) participants. The analysis was completed using a grounded theory approach.
FINDINGS
Successful ageing for the oldest old was grouped into six categories. Within these categories, we discovered the structure of successful ageing, which synthesises ideas from the adaptation process with those of physical and cognitive decreased function as well as spirituality.
CONCLUSION
The oldest old in Japan work to arrive at a conclusion with their lives, all the while coping with the drawbacks of ageing, such as declining physical and cognitive functions. This resilient and flexible way of life makes their form of ageing an equally 'successful' one.
目的
在日本，人类寿命的延长迫使社会重新思考“成功老龄化”的概念。本研究试图倡导一种新的成功老龄化概念，即完全接受衰老过程。
方法
研究基于对15名居住在社区的高龄老人（85岁及以上）参与者进行的半结构化访谈。分析采用扎根理论方法完成。
结果
高龄老人的成功老龄化分为六类。在这些类别中，我们发现了成功老龄化的结构，它将适应过程中的观念与身体和认知功能下降以及精神性方面的观念结合在一起。
结论
日本的高龄老人努力对自己的生活得出结论，同时应对衰老带来的不利影响，如身体和认知功能的衰退。这种坚韧灵活的生活方式使他们的老龄化形式同样“成功”。
