Abstract | Reviews literature dealing with the discrepancy between chronological age and a person's perception of age. Found little evidence to support the labeling theory which suggests that older people who feel young are denying their age. Data suggested feeling young represents various dimensions of physical, psychological, and social well-being. (JAC) |
