“…Despite these studies and concerns, in truth very little research has focused on older nurses, nurses older than 50 or on delaying their retirements past the average retirement age‐65 (Horner, ).

“…Among quantitative studies the smaller sample had 56 individuals, aged between 60 and 93 years old and with a mean age of 71.2 (Ramírez et al, 2013); the biggest sample had 18345 individuals aged from 50 to 70 years old and with a mean age of 60.4 (Horner, 2012).

Título: Bienestar hedónico y eudaimónico en la vejez a través de estudios psicológicos positivos: una revisión de alcance. Resumen: El estudio del envejecimiento a través de la lente de la Psicología Positiva permite mirar más allá de la disminución normalmente asociada con el avance de la edad y considerar experiencias y estrategias gratificantes para promover un envejecimiento con propósito. Con el objetivo de reunir evidencia sobre los principales avances conceptuales y empíricos que ilustran el compromiso de la Psicología Positiva con los temas del envejecimiento, se llevó a cabo una revisión de alcance. Los artículos que tenían "Psicología Positiva" y "Envejecimiento" (o palabras similares al envejecimiento) en su título, resumen o palabras clave fueron examinados en bases de datos principales y se buscaron términos relacionados con el envejecimiento en revistas bien conocidas de psicología positiva. Esta estrategia arrojó 48 artículos, 33 trabajos científicos originales y 15 revisiones. Se presentan los principales temas, diseños de estudio e instrumentos y se discuten los puntos finales de acuerdo con la perspectiva hedónica o eudaimóni-ca de los estudios. Se destacan las direcciones futuras relacionadas con la importancia de constructos comprensivos y estrategias metodológicas en el estudio del avance de la edad. Palabras clave: Psicología positiva; envejecimiento; hedonismo; Eudaimonia; bienestar; Revisión del alcance. Abstract:The study of aging through the lens of Positive Psychology allows looking beyond the decline normally associated with advancing of age and to consider rewarding experiences and strategies to promote a meaningful aging. In order to gather evidence on the key conceptual and empirical advancements that illustrate the commitment of Positive Psychology with aging issues a scoping review was conducted. Papers having "Positive Psychology" AND "Aging" (or similar words to aging) on their title, abstract or key-words were screened across main databases and aging related terms were searched in well-known journals of positive psychology. This strategy yielded 48 articles, 33 original scientific papers and 15 reviews. Main themes, study designs and instruments are presented and the endpoints are discussed according to the hedonic or eudaimonic perspective of the studies. Future directions related with the importance of comprehensive constructs and method approaches in the study of advancing age are highlighted.
