Carstensen originally formulated socioemotional selectivity theory (SST) in the early 1990s.[10] SST is a life-span theory of motivation which posits that people prioritize emotionally meaningful goals when time horizons are constrained. According to SST, people with expansive time horizons are more likely to prioritize exploration and expanding horizons, seeking out new relationships that promise long-term benefits. In contrast, as time horizons grow limited people prioritize emotionally meaningful goals that are more likely to result in feelings of emotional satisfaction.[3][11] Consequently, people with limited time horizons tend to have smaller, more carefully selected social networks and experience better emotional well-being.[12](from the Internet)
What her theory says seems to be a rather obvious commonsensical and is consistent with observations physicians are witnessing
in taking care of patients with different prognosis. The bottom line is to maintain good health as long as you can no matter how old you
are if you don't want your time horizon too constrained, otherwise you have to prioritize emotionally meaningful goals as she said.
To me, her theory does not appear to be anything original. She said toward the end that doing exercise or biology of exercise
will have a fundamental effect on the psychology of aging, which I like one of the cardiologists have been preaching all these years.
She implied doing exercise does something mysterious to our mind and psychology that we do not understand fully scientifically,
which I agree wholeheartedly.

This is indeed, a fascinating discussion on the ‘psychology of aging’ by which we all seniors can improve our insight on aging. I enjoyed very much to read through a bit long but definitely worthy interview, and it helped me further to justify(?) much different perception to my own age now than before, reaching to 82 this November! I am sure I would have received much different feeling with different response if I read this same interview 20 years earlier! Too greedy? 아전인수? Early sign of 노망 as my wife accuses?
I would like to share a few of interesting photos my classmate shared with me -see the attchments!-Aging.docx
All the best,
BB Lee

This is a fascinating discussion on the psychology of aging by which
I believe all of us seniors can improve our insight on aging and
the importance of exercise.
