GENERATIVITY AND LIFE-MEANING AMONG OLDER ADULTS FROM THE UNITED STATES AND BELARUS

摘要

The Belarusians, however, reported significantly higher ratings for concrete societal-impact items (e.g. making a difference to others [F=8.76, p<.01], contributing to others [F=17.43, p<.001], positively affecting others and [F=9.32, p<.01], improving one's community [F= 12.41, p=.001]), which may reflect cultural artifacts of possible developmental experiences under a primarily Socialist regime in Belarus.
