From the International Longevity Center (U.S.A) site:
This presentation relates to recent collaborations to promote new research projects on the measurement of happiness and later life satisfaction relevant to issues of longevity, aging and independent living for older adults, especially valuable for the Boomer generation and their parents.
Dr. Robert N. Butler, Founding President and CEO of the International Longevity Center-USA and Khristine Rogers, Vice President Active Aging of Atria Senior Living Group, Inc. and research colleagues Dr. Leonard Kelly and Dr. Eileen Rossen presented the material on the link below in the March 2010 Aging in America Conference held in Chicago, jointly sponsored by the American Society on Aging and the National Council on Aging.
The presentation reviews the challenges and advantages inherent in relocating for older Americans who opt for senior living communities and provides an overview of ongoing research through an ILC-Atria partnership probing factors that lead to happiness and satisfaction in later years, especially in the context of living environment transitions.
