Article Abstract

Existing theories on aging anxiety predominantly analyze its intrinsic causes through psychosocial perspectives such as perception and identity formation, yet insufficient attention has been paid to structural factors like socioeconomic status that may influence aging anxiety. Current research findings regarding the impact of socioeconomic status on aging anxiety exhibit inconsistencies, while the analysis of underlying mechanisms requires further refinement.
