description | <p>Despite the proliferation of successful ageing (SA) research, the literature is dominated by researcher-driven Anglophone conceptualisations. To date, lay perspectives of SA have not been examined in Europe or Turkey. The current study aims to conduct a mixed-methods examination of conceptualisations of SA in seven underrepresented countries.

Grounded theory methods and descriptive statistics were used to analyse qualitative and quantitative data, respectively.</p> |
