Popis:	Factors of individual difference in the health of older persons were studied by means of chronological age, several physical strength and social competences.Judging from the major findings it was postulated that the adjustment to aging depends primarily on socio-psychological ability than the biological one.Preventive approach, therefore, for non-infectious chronic illnesses would seem to play lesser role on the happiness of older persons, It seems reasonable that adequate setting for socio-psychologic needs is more essential for the aged even if there may be minor disability; maintenance of various roles and minimum bodily activity, coexistence of spouse, these were considered most important factors in achieving the health of elderly people.
