The framework is enclosed in a vertical rectangle labeled “CONTEXT (i.e. technology, societal infrastructure, social views).” Inside this vertical rectangle is another vertical rectangle labeled “PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS (i.e. physiological, psychological, lifestyle).” Below the title is a circular diagram. At the center of the circle is a dark inner circle labeled “Individual and intergenerational well-being.” Surrounding it are five outer segments, labeled from the left and moving clockwise as follows: “Physical” with a square icon, “Cognitive” with an open circle icon, “Emotional” with a heart icon, “Social” with a cross icon, and “Financial” with a triangle icon. From the circular diagram, two arrows extend downward, pointing to two smaller vertical rectangles. The left rectangle is labeled “INTENTIONS.” Inside, two sections appear. The first section is labeled “Self-oriented intentions: beliefs and desires reflecting own interests” and contains five bullet points, each linked to the segments of the circular diagram above: Physical: “Nurturing an active and healthy body” Cognitive: “Keeping the mind sharp and engaged” Emotional: “Nurturing emotional strength and balance” Social: “Making time for meaningful relationships” Financial: “Ensuring future financial security.” The second section is labeled “Other-oriented intentions: beliefs and desires reflecting the interests of other people or society in general” and contains five bullet points, each linked to the segments of the circular diagram above: Physical: “Fostering a sustainable and regenerative society” Cognitive: “Accumulating and sharing collective knowledge” Emotional: “Promoting psychological safety and flourishing for others” Social: “Supporting social development in communities” Financial: “Promoting others’ financial welfare.” The right rectangle is labeled “BEHAVIOURS.” Inside, two sections appear. The first section is labeled “Self-oriented behaviors: activities that are directed at the self” and contains five bullet points, each linked to the segments of the circular diagram above: Physical: “Following a physically healthy lifestyle” Cognitive: “Engaging in cognitive training” Emotional: “Practicing emotional self-care” Social: “Building and maintaining social ties” Financial: “Diversifying future financial sources.” The second section is labeled “Other-oriented behaviors: activities that are directed at other people, the environment, or society in general” and contains five bullet points, each linked to the segments of the circular diagram above: Physical: “Practicing sustainable consumption and lifestyle” Cognitive: “Sharing knowledge and experience” Emotional: “Practicing formal and informal emotional support” Social: “Engaging in community life and volunteer work” Financial: “Advancing philanthropy, continued work and financial literacy.” A right-pointing arrow from the rectangle “INTENTIONS” points to “BEHAVIOURS.”Responsible aging framework.
