Abstract:
The aim of this study was to qualitatively investigate the role of family experiences in the adjustment of the elderly. One of the factors that plays an important role in reducing the vulnerability of the elderly in the current era is the institution of family. Just as having a family is important to the elderly, the presence of an elderly person is also valuable and rewarding to the family. This qualitative study was conducted in 2017 using the Basic Theory Method. The researchers conducted semi-structured interviews with 18 elderly people in the age range of 65-82 years; referred to nongovernment funded residential aged care facilities, Organization of Agriculture Jahad, and municipal parks in Tehran, so that the data reached the saturation stage. Findings showed 8 main categories including positive and pleasant experiences; recognizing and positive behaviors of parents; constructive and emotional interaction with spouse; satisfactory emotional and internal cohesion of family; successful and transcendent marriage; favorable economic conditions; physical health; and satisfaction with life. The results of this study showed that such factors are the components of family experiences that affect the adjustment of the elderly.
