1.研究樣本之分佈以女性、75~84歲、專科或大學（含肄業）、已婚、固定與某些（孫）子女居住，且自覺健康狀況是普通的高齡者佔多數。
2.高齡者的人口背景變項，性別、年齡、教育程度、婚姻狀況、居住型態及自覺健康狀況對於「老化態度」、「對自我老化認知層面」及「對自我老化情緒感受層面」沒有顯著差異。

4.高齡者在老化態度有不同的看法，分別為（1）高齡者視老化為自然的過程，面對生理老化時，會考量自己身體功能、健康與自主性，並且重視身體保健。（2）高齡者的心理感受，主要受到健康、想法、家庭、經濟…等因素影響。（3）高齡者在社會老化的部分受到個人特質、身體健康狀況、家庭因素及社交圈改變…等因素影響。

6.高齡者在「老化態度」與「成功老化」具有顯著正相關。高齡者在老化態度的「對自我老化情緒感受層面」，與成功老化的「經濟安全層面」、「家人與親友關係層面」有達顯著正相關。
根據上述研究結果，本研究針對各機關團體及未來研究提出相關建議 。
