Life satisfaction among active and inactive people aged over 60 years oldThe research was carried out to find if activity is related to higher life satisfaction and if there is an association between life satisfaction and emotional intelligence, optimism and basic hope among the elders. 101 subjects aged over 60 years old took part in the study – 64 was active and 37 was inactive. The fi ndings suggest that there is an association between activity and life satisfaction among men – higher activity associate with higher life satisfaction. Active men were also more satisfi ed than active women. Life satisfaction is positively correlated with emotional intelligence, optimism and basic hope, but these variables are not related to activity.
