It is obvious that human life goes through many different stages, each stages carries specific characteristics that distinguish it from its peers from the stages.
But despite these alterations and differences, there are essential and necessary participants, none of which can condone and impose upon themselves. Life cannot go on without a smooth natural continuation. The most important of these is the phenomenon of human adaptation to the social environment .
But this does not mean that people who adapt to the environment, and in all its social, psychological, personality and other forms, are completely protected from most social problems and obstacles, and are not affected by the difficulties of life. But it is better to manage the life with them than others who cannot survive with them and with the social environment.
The responding of the socially adaptive person for the problems and changes that occur around him, is a soft health response stemming from his realistic view of life and far from fantasies and perceptions that can only be achieved in dreams.
Therefore, in this research, we sought to link this variable, social adjustment, which is one of the most important dimensions of adaptation, to one of the most important stages of human life, which is aging.
The person, who comes to this stage, holds usual characteristics, skills and experiences that make him socially capable and at the highest levels able to continue and interact with life, and in its dimensions, in a smooth, calm and healthy manner.
This research is divided into two parts. The first Part includes three sections. The first one deals with the basic components of research, the second deals with (changes in aging and their problems, as well as family functions), and the third deals with the relationship between social adjustment for adults Age by a set of variables and theories of its own, ie by social adjustment).
The second part consists of two sections, the first one deals with the (methodological framework of the research), and the second deals with (presenting and discussing the results of the research).
