Sažetak
Background: The aim was to examine relation between different dimensions of subjective age and two indicators of well-being: self-rated health and life satisfaction. Method: 118 health workers aged between 18 and 58 years completed Questionnaire of physical health (Barton et al., 1992), Questionnaire of subjective age and Life satisfaction scale (Diener i sur, 1985). Findings: There was no significant correlation between cognitive age, health and life satisfaction. The correlation between discrepancy of chronological and cognitive age with life satisfaction, as well as correlation between discrepancy of chronological and desired age with health and life satisfaction was not significant. There was a significant correlation between life satisfaction and self-rated health in the first two age group (18-32 and 33-42 y.o.), while in the third (43-58 y.o.) was not. Discussion: Despite of some previous studies, we didn’t confirm significant correlation between older subjective age and lower self-rated health and life satisfaction.
