Summary Introduction

Introduction

Psychological aging refers to the changing properties of the mind. Biological aging tracks the body as it wears down. The social aging process refers to how social roles, norms, and values change as people grow older. While these different forms of aging are not specifically dependent on each other, they may be accurately thought of as having an interdependent relationship.
