U posljednjoj fazi, osobe se suočavaju s krizom ego integriteta nasuprot očaju. Ego integritet predstavlja osjećaj cjelovitosti i zadovoljstva vlastitim životom, pri čemu je njegov razvoj usko povezan s brojem bolesti, funkcionalnom sposobnosti, zadovoljstvom životom te samoprocjenom uspješnog starenja. Cilj istraživanja bio je ispitati doprinos različitih aspekata uspješnog starenja, uključujući
... More broj kroničnih bolesti, funkcionalnu sposobnost, zadovoljstvo životom i samoprocjenu uspješnog starenja kao procesa i ishoda, razvoju ego integriteta kod starijih osoba u Hrvatskoj. Istraživanje je provedeno u dvije vremenske točke, pri čemu su u analizu uključeni podaci 193 osobe koje su sudjelovale u obje faze (117 žena i 76 muškaraca, prosječne dobi M=73,1 godine). Sudionici su bili stariji od 65 godina i živjeli su u vlastitom domu. Objektivno zdravlje procijenjeno je pitanjem o broju kroničnih bolesti, funkcionalna sposobnost Skalom dnevnih aktivnosti, zadovoljstvo životom Skalom zadovoljstva životom, samoprocjena uspješnog starenja pitanjima koja procjenjuju uspješno starenje kao ishod u danoj vremenskoj točki i kao proces, dok je ego integritet ispitan Kratkom skalom ego integriteta. U istraživanju je utvrđeno da su stariji muškarci zadovoljniji životom te da imaju manji broj kroničnih bolesti u odnosu na žene. Međutim, nisu utvrđene spolne razlike u samoprocjeni uspješnog starenja kao ishoda i procesa, funkcionalnoj sposobnosti te ego integritetu. Nadalje, mlađe stare osobe imaju manji broj kroničnih bolesti u odnosu na starije stare. No, nisu utvrđene dobne razlike u samoprocjeni uspješnog starenja kao ishoda i procesa, zadovoljstvu životom, funkcionalnojsposobnosti te ego integritetu. Utvrđena je značajna pozitivna povezanost između ego integriteta i samoprocjene uspješnog starenja kao procesa i ishoda, zadovoljstva životom i funkcionalne sposobnosti, te značajna negativna povezanost između ego integriteta i broja kroničnih bolesti. Provedenom regresijskom analizom, zadovoljstvo životom pokazalo se kao značajan prediktor ego integriteta, dok se samoprocjena uspješnog starenja kao procesa i ishoda, funkcionalna sposobnost te broj kroničnih bolesti nisu pokazali kao značajni prediktori. Less Abstract (english) The psychosocial theory of development examines the entire lifespan, from birth to the end of life. In the final stage, individuals face the crisis of ego integrity versus despair. Ego integrity represents a sense of wholeness and satisfaction with one’s life, with its development being closely linked to the number of illnesses, functional ability, life satisfaction, and self-assessed successful aging. The aim of this study was to examine the contribution of various aspects of successful
... More aging, such as the number of chronic illnesses, functional ability, and life satisfaction, to the development of ego integrity among older adults in Croatia. The research was conducted at two time points, with data from 193 individuals who participated in both phases included in the analysis (117 women and 76 men, with an average age of M = 73.1 years). Participants were over 65 years old and lived in their own homes. Objective health was assessed through a question about the number of chronic illnesses, functional ability using the Daily Activities Scale, life satisfaction using the Satisfaction with Life Scale, successful aging through questions evaluating it as both an outcome at a given point and a process, and ego integrity using the Short Ego Integrity Scale. The study found that older men reported higher life satisfaction and fewer chronic illnesses compared to women. However, no gender differences were observed in successful aging as both an outcome and process, functional ability, or ego integrity. Furthermore, younger old adults had fewer chronic illnesses than older old adults. Nonetheless, no age differences were found in successful aging as both an outcome and process, life satisfaction, functional ability, or ego integrity. A significant positive correlation has been established between ego integrity and successful aging as a process and as an outcome, life satisfaction, and functional ability, as well as a significant negative correlation between ego integrity and the number of chronic diseases. Through regression analysis, life satisfaction was found to be a significant predictor of ego integrity, whereas successful aging as a process and outcome, functional ability, and the number of chronic illnesses were not confirmed as significant predictors.
