Data were collected using an interview questionnaire form with the Desirability of Control, Integrity versus Despair, and Collett-Lester Fear of Death scales, in addition to socio-demographic and health characteristics. Results: Participants' age ranged from 60 to 85 years, 52.3% males, and 44.2% with no education. 64.3% had high desirability of control, 75.9% had resolution in integrity vs despair scores, indicating satisfaction with life. The mean of average fear of death was 3.20 from a maximum of 5.00. Positive correlations were found between the scores of desirability of control and those of integrity-despair resolution score, and with the scores of fear of dying of others and death of self. The desirability of control score was a main positive predictor of the (life satisfaction score) integrity-despair resolution score. Conclusion; Older adults' perceived desirability of control had an influence their fears of death/dying, but this latter is not affected by their satisfaction with life. Recommendations: Social activities could improve older adults` life satisfaction and alleviate their fear anxiety.
