Outline of Final Research Achievements |
During three years, the aim of this study was to develop of a new resilience scale in Japanese older adults by sex and examine relationship between resilience and cognitive, prefrontal functions. Firstly, this study found the factors comprising resilience in Japanese older adults. I developed the resilience measurement tool for older adults, and three factors were identified; (1) Positive Acceptance; (2) Refusal; (3) Uncontrollable. Although the part of our findings corresponded to many previous studies. Next, the results in this study showed that the performance of cognitive and prefrontal function of both sex in the 40’s and 50’s remained at the same level, but the performance declining for the verbal fluency and logical memory after the 70’s were not parallel. Moreover, I showed the robust motor postural functioning performance decreased approximately 60% from 70’s to 80’s in men and approximately 65% from 60’s to 70’s in women. This pattern corresponds to resilience.
