metadata.value: The work is devoted to the adaptation of the “Perception of Aging” questionnaire based on
  the English-language Aging Perceptions Questionnaire (APQ). Modern scientific knowledge
  has a significant amount of data in the field of psychology of aging, interest in which does not
  fade, and the aging process is studied from various angles. Researchers more often turn to the
  problem of constructing a productive old age, the planning of which is recommended to begin
  at earlier stages of life. The results of modern research indicate that a positive perception of aging
  is a predictor of quality of life in old age and contributes to various aspects of health in old
  age. In this regard, the question arises about psychodiagnostic tools that allow us to identify
  the specifics of the perception of aging. Even though that there are currently studies on this
  problem, there is no version of the questionnaire that will allow assessing the perception of aging
  in a Russian sample. This study examined the reliability and construct validity of the English
  version of the APQ Perceptions of Aging Questionnaire. The study involved 229 people
  aged 29 to 68 years. Reliability was assessed by calculating Cronbach’s α and showed internal consistency both for the entire questionnaire and across gender groups. To test the convergent
  validity, the Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile questionnaire, the K. Riff Psychological Well-
  Being Scale, the Australian Healthy Aging Questionnaire, and the Positive Affect and Negative
  Affect Scales were used. As a result of exploratory factor analysis, six scales were identified:
  “Consequences negative”, “Control positive”, “Emotional representation” and “Unstable image
  of old age” (Timeline (cyclical)), “Consequences positive”, “Control negative”. Analysis of convergent
  validity showed the connection of the selected scales with indicators of psychological
  and physical health. The Perceptions of Aging Questionnaire is a simple and flexible method
  for assessing the image of aging.
