Abstract

This short essay introduces some of the current problems in developmental personality theory and comments on the five articles that follow, all of which arise from longitudinal studies of aging in Israel, Sweden, and the United States. Although the study of personality has always been of central interest in psychology, personality development in advanced old age is a very new topic. We hope that this Special Issue will stimulate a lively discussion and will provoke further studies of personality in old age, which is indeed a "special issue."
