184名来自社会经济条件优越祖先的男性从18岁到65岁被跟踪调查。为了验证祖先寿命可以预测精神和身体活力的假设,研究人员对这些男性的身体和心理健康状况进行了前瞻性监测,并获得了他们父母和祖父母去世时的年龄。祖先寿命对60±1岁时的慢性疾病和68±1岁时的死亡率有很强的预测作用。然而,长寿的祖先在预测65岁时的社会心理活力和心理健康方面几乎没有作用。
A cohort of 184 men from socioeconomically advantaged ancestors has been followed from ages 18 to 65. In order to test the hypothesis that ancestral longevity would predict both mental and physical vigor, the men's physical and psychosocial health have been prospectively monitored, and the age at death of their parents and grandparents obtained. Ancestral longevity was strongly predictive of chronic illness at age 60 ± 1 years and mortality at age 68 ± 1 years. Long-lived ancestors, however, exerted little effect in predicting psychosocial vigor and mental health at age 65.
