11/29 Summary: "People who feel younger at heart live longer"
From CNN
(Summary)
The new study published in JAMA Internal Medicine online shows that elder people who felt younger than their years outlived those who felt their age or felt older. The researchers are trying to understand the reasons behind the findings. There seem some possibilities including a wider range of health behaviors than they measured, and self-perceived age seems possible. So, by intervening it, it could be possible to promote health behaviors and attitudes toward aging. Another study indicates that conscientiousness and optimism help people live a longer life.
