The main purpose of this article is to look at research done on the factors that help people age successfully in various countries.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="text-justify:kashida"><span style="text-kashida:0%"><span style="text-autospace:none"><span new="" roman="" style="font-family:" times=""><span style="font-style:italic"><span style="font-size:9.0pt"><span style="font-style:normal">&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Methods: </b>This study was conducted through searches in the PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases. The inclusion criteria were studies related to successful aging, published in English, and consisting of original research articles. Relevant articles were selected based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. A survey of the included articles was conducted according to a predefined classification.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="text-justify:kashida"><span style="text-kashida:0%"><span style="text-autospace:none"><span new="" roman="" style="font-family:" times=""><span style="font-style:italic"><span style="font-size:9.0pt"><span style="font-style:normal">&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Results:</b> Among 3,203 studies, 76 articles met our inclusion criteria. Analysis showed that 67 (88%) of these articles applied determinants to achieve successful aging, while 9 (12%) employed determinants for successful aging in their studies. Although many studies used foundational models of successful aging and analyzed data from previous work with these models, they were not excluded and were included in the final analysis.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br> <span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="text-justify:kashida"><span style="text-kashida:0%"><span style="text-autospace:none"><span new="" roman="" style="font-family:" times=""><span style="font-style:italic"><b><span style="font-size:9.0pt"><span style="font-style:normal">&nbsp;&nbsp; Conclusion:</span></span></b><span style="font-size:9.0pt"><span style="font-style:normal"> This review aimed to examine the determinants of successful aging identified in the selected articles and to highlight research gaps. The results revealed a decline in research interest in this field. Most studies focused on examining previously used determinants, while some provided new determinants of successful aging within their studied populations. Successful aging encompasses various dimensions that vary according to the culture and attitudes of different societies, warranting further attention. Among the articles that defined indicators of successful aging, access to a support system and health status were consistently identified as key indicators in all nine studies. This highlights the crucial role of both health and social support in achieving successful aging across different countries and cultural contexts.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span><br> &nbsp; Successful Aging, Determinants, Systematic Review 862 880 http://mjiri.iums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-9747-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Elham Haghshenas ehagh6767@gmail.com 2003194753284600100287 2003194753284600100287 No Health Care Management Department, School of Health Management and Information Sciences, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran Soudabeh Vatankhah s-vatankhah@iums.ac.ir 2003194753284600100288 2003194753284600100288 Yes Department of Healthcare Services Management, School of Health Management & Information Sciences, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran Hamid Pourasghari hamid.pourasghari@gmail.com 2003194753284600100289 2003194753284600100289 No Department of Healthcare Services Management, School of Health Management & Information Sciences, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran
