|title=Goal Pursuit, Goal Adjustment, and Pain in Middle-Aged Adults Aging With Physical Disability.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31718416
|abstract= Aging with physical disability disrupts one's ability to achieve valued goals due to changes in symptoms and function. It is unclear how to cope optimally in this context. This study examined whether two possible strategies-tenacious goal pursuit (TGP) and flexible goal adjustment ([[FGA]])-were associated with reduced pain interference and depressive symptoms and greater well-being, and protected against pain intensity, and [[FGA]] was more protective with increasing age and worse physical function.   Middle-aged adults with muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, post-polio syndrome, or spinal cord injury ([i]N[/i] = 874; [i]M[/i]  = 58.3 years, range = 46-68; [i]M[/i]  = 26.2 years, range = 2-67) completed two questionnaires, a year apart.   TGP and [[FGA]] use was associated with greater well-being. [[FGA]] use predicted decreased depressive symptoms. Concurrent use of both predicted decreased pain interference.   Adults with disability employ a variety of goal management strategies. Findings support TGP and [[FGA]] as potential intervention targets for healthy aging with disabilities.

|title=Tenacious Goal Pursuit, Flexible Goal Adjustment, and Life Satisfaction Among Chinese Older Adult Couples.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31547780
|abstract=We aimed to examine the roles of tenacious goal pursuit (TGP) and flexible goal adjustment ([[FGA]]), mediated by positive self-perceptions of aging (PSA), in Chinese older couples' life satisfaction. Using a cross-sectional design, 245 Chinese older couples (age range: 55-93 years) completed measures of TGP, [[FGA]], PSA, and life satisfaction. The results showed that (a) spousal interrelations existed for TGP and [[FGA]]; (b) TGP and [[FGA]] had significant actor effects on life satisfaction, with [[FGA]] having a stronger effect; (c) although the partner effect of [[FGA]] did not differ between husbands and wives, husbands' TGP was positively associated with wives' life satisfaction, but not vice versa; and (d) PSA mediated the effects of TGP and [[FGA]] on life satisfaction at the actor and partner levels. These results have implications for developing couple-based interventions to enhance successful aging, with a focus on promoting both partners' accommodative coping and positive age beliefs.

|title=Association of tenacious goal pursuit and flexible goal adjustment with out-of-home mobility among community-dwelling older people.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30449015
|abstract=As people age, functional losses may limit the potential to get outside the home and participate in desired activities and community life. Coping with age-related losses has been reported to be important for psychological well-being. Hitherto is not known whether active use of coping strategies also helps maintain out-of-home mobility. We investigated how two coping strategies, tenacious goal pursuit (TGP; persistency in reaching one's goals) and flexible goal adjustment ([[FGA]]; adjusting one's goals to changed circumstances), are associated with life-space mobility and perceived autonomy in participation outdoors among community-dwelling older people. Participants (n = 186) were aged 79-93 years. TGP and [[FGA]] were self-reported using separate scales. Perceived autonomy in participation was assessed with the Impact on Participation and Autonomy Outdoors-subscale, and life-space mobility with the Life-Space Assessment. Two-step cluster analysis was used to create data-driven coping profiles of TGP and [[FGA]]. General linear model analyses showed that the profile including highly tenacious and flexible older people had the highest life-space mobility and perceived autonomy outdoors, whereas the profile including people with low TGP and low [[FGA]] showed the lowest scores. Depressive symptoms attenuated the associations. Active use of both TGP and [[FGA]] is favorable for out-of-home mobility and enables more active participation in society in later life.

|title=Assimilative and accommodative coping in older adults with and without sensory impairment: four-year change and prospective relations with affective well-being.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30407084
|abstract= Sensory impaired older adults may be particularly dependent on coping strategies such as assimilation (or tenacious goal pursuit [TGP]) and accommodation (or flexible goal adjustment [[[FGA]]]) to secure high levels of well-being. We investigated if late-life changes in these coping strategies and prospective associations of TGP and [[FGA]] with affective well-being vary according to sensory impairment status.   Our study sample consisted of 387 adults aged 72-95 years ([i]M[/i] = 82.50 years, SD =4.71 years) who were either visually impaired (VI; [i]n[/i] = 121), hearing impaired (HI; [i]n[/i] = 116), or sensory unimpaired (UI; [i]n[/i] = 150). One hundred sixty-eight individuals were reassessed after approximately 4 years.   Both VI and HI revealed a decrease in TGP, whereas TGP remained stable in UI. For [[FGA]], a significant increase in HI was observed, whereas a significant decline emerged in UI. Controlling for age, gender, and cognitive abilities, higher TGP at baseline was significantly associated with higher negative affect 4 years later in VI. Moreover, the positive association between baseline [[FGA]] and subsequent positive affect was stronger in HI than in UI older adults.   Our findings suggest that older adults with sensory impairments reveal trajectories of assimilative and accommodative coping and associations of TGP and [[FGA]] with affective well-being that are different from sensory unimpaired individuals.

|title=Age stereotypes, flexible goal adjustment, and well-being among Chinese older adults.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28635315
|abstract=Previous studies have examined the independent roles of positive age stereotypes (PAS) and negative age stereotypes (NAS) in successful aging. This study aimed to examine the joint effect of PAS and NAS on the well-being of Chinese older adults, and to further examine whether this effect was moderated by flexible goal adjustment ([[FGA]]). Using a cross-sectional design, 279 Chinese older adults (age range 60‒97 years) completed measures related to age stereotypes, [[FGA]], and well-being. The results showed that PAS interacted with NAS to predict well-being. In addition, the joint effect of PAS and NAS was moderated by [[FGA]]. Specially, for older adults with low [[FGA]], NAS weakened the positive association between PAS and well-being; whereas, for older adults with high [[FGA]], NAS could not influence the association between PAS and well-being. Tailored interventions to modify aging perceptions and to enhance coping flexibility competence might be helpful for promoting the well-being of older adults.

|title=Profiling plasma peptides for the identification of potential ageing biomarkers in Chinese Han adults.
|pubmed-url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22802942
|abstract=Advancing age is associated with cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and cancer, and shows significant inter-individual variability. To identify ageing-related biomarkers we performed a proteomic analysis on 1890 Chinese Han individuals, 1136 males and 754 females, aged 18 to 82 years, using weak cation exchange magnetic bead based MALDI-TOF-MS analysis. The study identified 44 peptides which varied in concentration in different age groups. In particular, apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA1) concentration gradually increased between 18 to 50 years of age, the levels of fibrinogen alpha ([[FGA]]) decreased over the same age span, while albumin ([[ALB]]) was significantly degraded in middle-aged individuals. In addition, the plasma peptide profiles of [[FGA]] and four other unidentified proteins were found to be gender-dependent. Plasma proteins such as [[FGA]], [[ALB]] and ApoA1 are significantly correlated with age in the Chinese Han population and could be employed as indicative ageing-related biomarkers.
