dc.description.abstract | In very advanced age, successful aging becomes more and more difficult, for instance because age-related losses challenge the possibility to remaining socially engaged. This study analyzes the activity engagement patterns of Portuguese centenarians and its relation with well-being. A sample of 89 centenarians (Mage= 101.1 years, SD=1.4, range: 100–105) from the PT100 Oporto Centenarian Study was considered. Results demonstrated that the majority of the centenarians performed religious activities (94.4%), with 80 individuals (89.9%) praying and 34 (38.2%) going to the church. Regression analyses indicated that religious social engagement was related to Valuation of Life, even when the contribution of health (i.e., diagnosis and ADL) was consid- ered. In sum, findings point to the salience of spirituality in well-being in centenarians and to further explore the contri- bution of transcendence for capturing social successful aging phenomena in centenarians. | pt_PT |
