Are We as Old as We are or as Old as We Feel?
Ljiljana KALITERNA
Sažetak
This paper reviews the concept and measurement of
subjective age. Considerable research has shown that people
tend to consider their age as being different from what it
actually is. Generally, adults under 20 years of age often
perceive themselves as slightly older than their actual age,
while adults over 30 years perceive themselves as younger
than their actual age. The differences between actual and
subjective age become more pronounced with advancing
chronological age. The different types of measures that have
been used to assess subjective age as well as correlates of
age identification are discussed.
