This pilot study addresses the relationship between wellbeing and emotions in older adult students at the Permanent University of Adults in Alicante (Spain). The overarching objective is to analyze how education impacts their wellbeing and personal satisfaction or how it can be adapted to enhance such wellbeing. The aim is to characterize the wellbeing profile of these adults through the analysis of central tendency and dispersion of survey responses. The hypotheses are centered on the existence of significant differences in wellbeing among demographic groups (age and gender) and the grouping of items into different dimensions of wellbeing (emotional and social). The results indicate notable variations in wellbeing based on age and gender, thereby validating the hypothesis of demographic differences. Furthermore, multiple dimensions of wellbeing were identified through item grouping. These findings suggest the necessity to tailor education to focus on specific aspects of wellbeing, such as the development of communicative skills and the formation of strong relationships, which could enhance the quality of life and satisfaction of older adults. This study provides a valuable foundation for future research and pedagogical practices in the education of older adults, emphasizing the importance of an education adapted to their specific needs.
