Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of elder’s role performance and self-esteem on successful aging.
Methods: The participants were 207 elders from D city. Data were collected from April to May, 2012 using a questionnaire. Data analysis was done with SPSS/WIN 18.0 using ANOVA, t-test, Pearson correlation, and stepwise multiple regression.
Results: Factors that have an effect on successful aging were role performance (β=.429), self-esteem (β=.388), health status (β=-.185), family type (β=.156), gender (β=.128), and pocket money (β=.092). These factors explain 56.9% of the variance in successful aging.
