DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose a renewal to our currently funded NIA Roybal Center for Translational Research on Aging at Princeton University, with the overall objectives of (1) continuing our development of new methods for the measurement of well-being and health that aggregate particular experiences rather than eliciting global evaluations and (2) using them to better understand and document the experience of aging. We propose to refine and extend a shift to a bottom-up conceptualization of well-being to enhance our ability to understand numerous facets of the aging process by clearly separating actual experiences of daily life from the cognitive processes that give rise to reports of life satisfaction or overall happiness. We will show our current application of bottom-up methods has improved our understanding of apparent anomalies in self-reported well-being and health and has provided insights into the process of adaptation to changing circumstances. These new methods have allowed detailed analyses of the contribution of different circumstances (e.g., chronic disease, widowhood) and situations (e.g., working, socializing with friends) to the overall quality of life, and of how these contributions change over a person's life cycle. The combination of measurements of the affective experience of situations and activities (e.g., commuting, housework) with measurements of the time spent by the population in these activities, currently collected by the Department of Labor Statistics, should contribute to the development of an experimental system of National Well-being Accounts during the proposed study period. As per the goals of the Roybal RFA, we do not expect to produce definitive answers to all of questions addressed in the proposal; our goal is to extend the work from the current grant to support subsequent large-scale studies.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们建议更新我们目前资助的普林斯顿大学NIA Roybal老龄化转化研究中心，其总体目标是（1）继续开发衡量幸福和健康的新方法，这些方法聚集特定的经验，而不是引发全球评估和（2）使用它们来更好地理解和记录老龄化的经验。我们建议完善和扩展一个自下而上的幸福概念化的转变，以提高我们的能力，通过清楚地分离日常生活的实际经验，从认知过程中，引起生活满意度或整体幸福的报告，了解老化过程的许多方面。我们将展示我们目前自下而上的方法的应用，提高了我们对自我报告的幸福和健康的明显异常的理解，并提供了对适应不断变化的环境的过程的见解。这些新方法允许详细分析不同情况（例如，慢性病、丧偶）和情况（例如，工作、与朋友社交）对整体生活质量的影响，以及这些贡献在一个人的生命周期中如何变化。情境和活动的情感体验的测量组合（例如，通勤、家务）以及对人口在这些活动中花费的时间的测量（目前由劳工统计部收集），应该有助于在拟议的研究期间开发国民幸福账户实验系统。根据Roybal RFA的目标，我们不希望对提案中提出的所有问题给出明确的答案;我们的目标是将目前的资助扩展到支持后续的大规模研究。
