Description

Hongmei Lin and co-authors test a program that helps Hong Kong adults prepare for old age, in a study from two thousand twenty-three. Hong Kong has the world's longest life span, yet its people prepare less for old age than peers in the West. The program covered money, health, social ties, and leisure.

Workshops with experts opened the program in all four areas. Small groups then ran their own preparation activities for six months, with check-ins every two weeks. Over one hundred forty adults finished. Readiness and satisfaction rose in all areas but money after the workshops. After six months, worry fell and life meaning rose across all four.
