Changes in the cognitive component of the time perspective as a biopsychosocial indicator of the course of aging

Abstract

The article is devoted to the description of the specificity of the cognitive component of time perspectives, i.e. the connection of time zones (past, present, future) in the elderly and senile age. It is shown that at a later age there is a transformation of cognitive representation of the time perspective, reduced connectivity of time zones between them, which indicates the presence of stratification of " I " in time. Respondents aged 55-60 have a greater integration of the three time zones, in which the past, present and future are continuous, but not interconnected. In the group of respondents 61-74 years there is a greater continuity of the past and the present, compared with the groups of 55-60 and 75-90 years, which indicates a greater integration of the past as a resource for personal present and future time. Biopsychosocial predictors that affect the time zone connectivity in the elderly and senile age were identified.
