| Resumo: | The study of aging through the lens of Positive Psychology al- lows looking beyond the decline normally associated with advancing of age and to consider rewarding experiences and strategies to promote a mean- ingful aging. In order to gather evidence on the key conceptual and empiri- cal 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, ab- stract 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 end- points are discussed according to the hedonic or eudaimonic perspective of the studies. Future directions related with the importance of comprehen- sive constructs and method approaches in the study of advancing age are highlighted. |
