摘要
This paper presents the social factors of psychological well-being in the elderly. Psychological well-being is a personality phenomenon, which forms during the human activity in the system of real relationships with surrounding objects. Personal, cognitive, emotional, social, and other factors determine psychological well-being in the elderly. It was found that the level of psychological well-being is bigger for seniors who do not feel lonely and have enough opportunities for communication, who take part in a social life and live with relatives. Specifics of everyday activity in older age are not related to psychological well-being substantially.
