Abstract

ABSTRACT Aging in place is a concept most people desire (i.e., to live in their own homes for as long as possible). However, that is not always possible. To account for this reality, this article introduces an alternative concept called aging in a place of choice (a novel theoretical insight) alongside five new articles (a pragmatic collection of practical insights) in the latest issue of Activities, Adaptation and Aging: Purposeful and Dignified Living for Older Adults. Therefore, this article should be useful to gain a theoretical and practical understanding of aging in a place of choice.

在一个选择的地方变老

摘要就地老龄化是大多数人渴望的概念（即尽可能长时间地住在自己家里）。然而，这并不总是可能的。为了说明这一现实，本文在最新一期的《活动、适应和老龄化：老年人有目的和有尊严的生活》中引入了一个名为“选择之地的老龄化”的替代概念（一种新颖的理论见解），以及五篇新文章（实用见解的实用集）。因此，这篇文章应该有助于从理论和实践上理解老龄化的选择。
