Which of the following lifestyle factors is known to affect wellbeing positively in late adulthood ?

  • A.Mental and physical activity
  • B.Alcohol consumption
  • C.Retiring early
  • D.Drug consumption

Answer: A

The positive factor is mental and physical activity.

Research on aging consistently finds that staying physically active and mentally engaged, through exercise, learning, hobbies and social activity, is linked to better health, cognitive functioning and well-being in late adulthood.

Alcohol and drug consumption harm health in later life, and retiring early is not reliably linked to better well-being; its effects depend on health, finances and the activities that replace work.
