Abstract

The study of the self-concept in late adulthood seems an essential topic. This happens since people's lives are becoming longer. The number of older people is increasing, and the correct interaction with the younger generation is possible with a deep understanding of the specifics of their age psychology. The self-concept develops throughout a person's life and absorbs everything that was the most significant in each of the periods of personal development. Therefore, the self-concept of late adulthood and old age is a complex formation in which information about the many self-images that arises in a person in various variants of his self-perception and self-representation is "recorded." This is a selective memory of the individual, reflecting events so as not to disturb prominent personal positions. Therefore, it is challenging to investigate the self-concept of a particular person in his life transformation.
