You can DO this!
#17 Longevity
Complete the “Calculating Your Longevity” questionnaire” (in a separate document). Discuss what you learned in a narrative style, not just your answers to the longevity questionnaire, including answers to the following questions:
Will you live to be 100?
Do you agree with all the areas purported to be associated with living long?
Why or why not?
#18 Successful Aging
How do you imagine you will handle your own successful aging after age 65?
Will you gradually withdraw from the world to enjoy peace and solitude do the things you want to do, like read or relax, according to the DISENGAGEMENT THEORY OF SUCCESSFUL AGING?
Or do you imagine you will want to continue an active life full of socializing, volunteer work, being with family, going on trips, etc., according to the ACTIVITY THEORY OF SUCCESSFUL AGING?
Tie your speculations into how you view your personality today. For example, are you a loner who prefers peace and quiet leisure activities like reading or watching TV? Or, are you an extrovert who only finds real happiness out with friends and doing some activity like dancing or taking exercise classes?
Try to paint a picture of your life at 65 or older.
#19 Death Anxiety
Take the Death Anxiety Questionnaire (in a separate document). Add up your score. (Your score will be between 0 and 30.) According to Conte, Weiner, and Plutchik, the average score for most people, regardless of age, is 8.5. Discuss what you learned in a narrative style, not just your answers to the Death Anxiety Questionnaire, including answers to the following questions:
What was your score?
Was it higher or lower than the average score these researchers found?
Why do you think this is so?
The DAQ identifies four specific aspects of death anxiety:
fear of the unknown (items 1, 2, 12, 14, and 15)
fear of suffering (items 3, 4, and 5)
fear of loneliness (items 6 and 7)
fear of personal extinction (items 10, 11, and 13).
Items 8 and 9 stand alone as other aspects of death anxiety.
How did you score on each of the four aspects?
Reflect on what you learned from this exercise.
