这项研究考察了感知个人一生的两个截然不同的方面--未来时间透视(FTP)和对年龄相关变化的认识(AARC)--是如何相互关联的，以及它们如何相互作用来预测心理健康。为了更好地理解主观对寿命、衰老和幸福感的看法之间的关联，我们测试了一系列模型，以调查ftp、AARC-Gain、AARC-Lost和心理幸福感之间的方向性、间接影响和条件过程。在所有模型中，我们测试了中年人和老年人之间的差异，以及美国和德国成年人之间的差异。分析是在结构方程模型框架内进行的，对537名居住在社区的成年人(年龄40-98岁)进行了为期2.5年的跨国纵向样本。在时间1意识到与年龄相关的损失(AARC-损失)可以预测在时间2的FTP值，但FTP值不能预测AARC-收益或AARC-损失。此外，未来时间视角在AARC损失和幸福感之间的关联中起到了中介作用。适度分析显示，意识到与年龄相关的收益(AARC-收益)具有缓冲效应，在这种情况下，对与年龄更相关的收益的感知减少了有限的未来时间视角对幸福感的负面影响。各年龄段和国家的影响都很强烈。综上所述，这些发现表明，感知到的与年龄相关的损失经历可能会使个人敏感地感知到未来的生命更加有限，这可能会导致心理幸福感降低。相比之下，感知到的与年龄相关的收益可能会起到保护心理健康的资源的作用，特别是在人们认为时间不多的时候。
This study examined how two distinct facets of perceived personal lifetime – future time perspective (FTP) and awareness of age-related change (AARC) – are associated with one another, and how they may interact to predict psychological well-being. To better understand associations among subjective perceptions of lifetime, aging and well-being, we tested a series of models to investigate questions of directionality, indirect effects, and conditional processes among FTP, AARC-Gains, AARC-Losses, and psychological well-being. In all models, we tested for differences between middle-aged and older adults, and between adults from the U.S. and Germany. Analyses were conducted within a structural equation modeling framework on a cross-national, 2.5-year longitudinal sample of 537 community-residing adults (age 40–98 years). Awareness of age-related losses (AARC-Losses) at Time 1 predicted FTP at Time 2, but FTP did not predict AARC-Gains or AARC-Losses. Furthermore, future time perspective mediated the association between AARC-Losses and well-being. Moderation analyses revealed a buffering effect of awareness of age-related gains (AARC-Gains) in which perceptions of more age-related gains diminished the negative effect of a limited future time perspective on well-being. Effects were robust across age groups and countries. Taken together, these findings suggest that perceived age-related loss experiences may sensitize individuals to perceive a more limited future lifetime which may then lead to lower psychological well-being. In contrast, perceived age-related gains may function as a resource to preserve psychological well-being, in particular when time is perceived as running out.
