Abstract
This pilot study, a precursor to more in-depth research, examines the relationship between age, gender, and well-being in older adults participating in educational programs. Employing a quantitative design, descriptive analyses, T-Tests, ANOVA, and correlations were used to assess participants' responses. The results highlight an imbalanced age and gender distribution, with a predominance of individuals aged 66–75 and a higher proportion of women. The analyses reveal significant differences in well-being based on gender and age. Correlations indicate that as age increases, so does satisfaction with past and future life, although interest in new challenging experiences decreases. This study underscores the importance of considering demographic differences when designing and implementing educational programs for older adults, emphasizing the need for specific adaptations to maximize well-being and participation.
