    • Gerontology
    • Health Education

    Background:

    • The life span theory posits that development is a lifelong process.
    • An individual's developmental history significantly influences later-life behavior and coping mechanisms.
    • Elderly individuals' ability to manage health challenges is linked to prior experiences with similar life events.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To explore the application of life span development principles in health interventions.
    • To identify strategies for promoting sustained positive health behaviors across the lifespan.
    • To examine the influence of life events on coping abilities in later life.

    Main Methods:

    • This study is based on theoretical principles of life span development.
