Abstract (EN): Successful aging is the ability to maintain low probability of disease and disability, high cognitive and physical functioning, and active engagement with life (Rowe & Kahn, 1999). These criteria allow for a minority of people to be classified as being successful and overlook the importance of psychological variables in balancing the weight of disease. A total of 1322 seniors (55+years) were classified on their overall functioning according to core domains (health, psychological, cognitive, biobehavioural, social, personality). Findings support the idea that a broader perspective of aging outcomes, rather than success criteria, may better reflect reality.
