摘要：

This qualitative study was conducted to describe Korean older adults' perceptions of the aging process. A total of 18 Korean older adults were interviewed, and a grounded theory approach was used to analyze the interview data. The participants were found to perceive aging as a process of Generating, Expressing, and Transforming of Growing Futility. The degree to which they perceived their Growing Futility depended on the actions and interactions of a set of conditional structures. This study revealed five patterns of Korean older adults' perception of the aging process. These findings allow for the possibility of a more refined theoretical development for the aging process, especially when a comparative study becomes available through cross-cultural qualitative research.
