The literature on life review reminiscence in the elderly is reviewed. Research indicates that life review is a personal, self-evaluative form of reminiscence with intrapersonal and interpersonal dimensions. The nature and quality of these dimensions change with age. The process and outcome of life review in the elderly may vary as a function of independent, as compared with institutional, living. There needs to be closer correspondence between clinical and research endeavors since empirical documentation is lacking regarding the efficacy of life review groups. It is suggested that an integration of intrapersonal and interpersonal approaches may provide the basis for a broad conceptualization of life review reminiscence in aged adults.
本文对有关老年人生活回顾性回忆的文献进行了综述。研究表明，生活回顾是一种具有个人内在和人际维度的个人自我评估形式的回忆。这些维度的性质和质量会随着年龄的增长而变化。与机构生活相比，老年人生活回顾的过程和结果可能因独立生活而有所不同。由于缺乏关于生活回顾小组功效的实证记录，临床和研究工作之间需要更紧密的对应。建议将个人内在和人际方法相结合，可能为老年成年人生活回顾性回忆的广泛概念化提供基础。
