Social perception refers broadly to the ability to decode and react appropriately to the social signals sent out by other people, and is a critical predictor of social competency and wellbeing. The aim of this project is to gain a clearer picture of when and why older adults experience social perceptual difficulties, as well as any consequences of these difficulties. A key prediction is that those older adults who have most difficulty with social perception will also have lowest wellbeing. Identifying which older adults are most likely to experience social perceptual difficulties, as well as which aspects of social perception are relatively intact, are expected to help to guide interventions on how to maintain wellbeing in old age.

社会感知广义上指的是对他人发出的社会信号进行解码和适当反应的能力，是社会能力和幸福感的关键预测因素。这个项目的目的是获得一个更清晰的画面，当和为什么老年人的经验，社会知觉的困难，以及这些困难的任何后果。一个关键的预测是，那些在社会感知方面最困难的老年人也将拥有最低的幸福感。确定哪些老年人最有可能经历社会知觉困难，以及社会知觉的哪些方面相对完整，预计将有助于指导如何在老年保持健康的干预措施。
