ABSTRACT
This study examined the extent to which dispositional traits within the Big Five and the adult developmental construct of generativity are associated with aging anxiety in midlife adults. Four hundred and ten midlife adults participated in the survey. Hierarchical regression analyses confirmed that the Big Five personality significantly predicted aging anxiety after controlling demographical variables; generativity significantly predicted aging anxiety after controlling for demographic variables and the Big Five personality traits. And Our analysis showed that generativity was the strongest predictor for aging anxiety. Moreover, neuroticism was the most significant predictor among the Big Five personality traits. Discussion focuses on Future directions for research and interventions to reduce aging anxiety in midlife were discussed.
