dc.description.abstractGerotranscendence explains the psychosocial changes in later life and how one acquires a more transcendent life view. This study seeks to increase the evidence on the association between gerotranscendence, life satisfaction, and religiosity. Specifically, this study aims to: investigate whether the gero- transcendence levels of committed clergy and consecrated reli- gious (CCR) individuals differ from those of non-clergy and non- consecrated religious (non-CCR) persons; to examine if religios- ity is significantly related to gerotranscendence; and to analyze the relationship between life satisfaction and gerotranscen- dence. A total of 55 participants with a mean age of 76.5 (SD 8.9) completed a sociodemographic questionnaire and three scales, one for each construct: gerotranscendence, life satisfac- tion, and religiosity. Results showed that the CCR group pre- sented significantly higher scores on all instruments and that all correlations between scales were significantly positive. Differences between groups help to understand the importance of individual and collective aspects of life circumstances for gerotranscendence development.pt_PT
