About the Book
Control and Aging: Perspectives on the Psychology of Control by Margret M. Baltes, originally published in 1986, explores the crucial role that control-related beliefs and behaviors play in the psychology of aging. In this book, Baltes analyzes the theoretical foundations of control in older adults, addressing how individuals manage and adapt to age-related changes.
The book serves as both a theoretical and practical guide, offering valuable insights into how control-related processes impact the aging experience. It looks at how people manage their lives, make decisions, and maintain a sense of agency in later stages of life, focusing on behaviors that are vital for psychological well-being in aging individuals.
This foundational work is essential reading for anyone studying or working in the fields of gerontology, psychology, or aging. It provides a thorough understanding of the relationship between control and aging, presenting practical applications for theory and practice in psychology.
