metadata.value: Recent decades have been characterized by an increase in elderly people in the population. Mental
  diseases are associated with old age, particularly depression. Besides the negative changes in ageing
  also exist processes of “antiageing”, or “vitauct” (Frolkis, 1988) which depend on personal and social
  impacts, in the connection of which time perspective (TP) plays a leading role. This prompts the importance
  of investigating TP.
  48 elderly depressed patients aged from 50 to 80 and 26 older adults aged from 50 to 81 took part
  in the experiment. All patients were under treatment in the Mental Health Research Center (Moscow).
  The investigation employed ZTPI (Zimbardo, Boyd, 1999; Sircova, 2004) and STAI (Spielberger,
  1972; Khanin, 1976) adapted for the Russian population.
  It was shown that the characteristics of TP in normal ageing reflect the predominance of its
  positive aspects, while the negative ones are connected with a state anxiety which demonstrates their
  dynamism. Among “compensatory” mechanisms are “shift to the future” and active and responsible
  life position which reflect psychological vitauct.
  The “depressive” TP profile shows an ambivalent attitude to the past, helplessness in life
  organization, low orientation towards the future. Resources of the past, the possibility to get positive
  emotions in the present are not inaccessible to depressed people. These results clarify how vitauct IS
  manifests in the ageing process (repective to TP), whose resources can play a supportive role for the
  compensation of negative changes. Refs 29. Figs 2. Tables 7.
