metadata.value: The work is devoted to the psychological factors of well-being aging, which is considered as an
  indicator of psychological health. The generalization of researches demonstrates the importance
  of coping factors with psychotraumatism and the role of flexible age identity (subjective
  age of a person) in overcoming growing diseases, mental problems (depression, loneliness),
  an ability not only to maintain vitality, but also a high quality of life, aspiration for self-realization.
  The data show a close relationship between the quality of life and subjective age, which
  indicates the essential role of subjective age identity for maintaining physical, psychological
  health, social relations, environmental assessment and its safety in the elderly and senile. The
  relationship between subjective age and health is mediated by a number of physiological factors
  (working capacity), and psychological factors (self-efficacy, self-esteem, flexibility in assessing
  the situation). Reducing self-esteem of health leads the elderly to wider use of social
  comparison to enhance the “physical-I”, which is often a buffer against the negative effects
  of physical symptoms affecting the self-esteem of health. Reducing the subjective age allows
  older people to expand their opportunities, to remain active members of society, to counteract
  negative stereotypes of aging and the processes of aging. Studies have shown that, on the
  one hand, an elderly person may lack help and attention from other people, but, on the other
  hand, becomes selective in choosing a subject of social support, who can provide it. In the
  period of late adulthood, the life experience of a person is individualized and differentiated
  and endowed with such features that make it appear to a person as a unique life experience.
  Social support in this case, usually, is universal and not always adjusted in accordance with
  a specific request. It is shown that the aging period is a special period of ontogenesis, with a
  characteristic reorganization of all human resources and their integration for successful aging.
