Narrative ageing: an investigation of the conditions of aged life in the north of Zhejiang Province Abstract In 2014, The Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (known as CASS) announced the Blue Book of China’s Society :<Society of China analysis and Forecast (2014)>. In this book, it indicates that in the year of 2013, there have been no less than 200 million old people aged above 60 in our country. 46825

The Officer of The China National Committee on Ageing (known as CNCA) has also pointed out that in the future 20 years, the ageing population of our country will increase at a scale of 10 million every year; What’s more, by the middle of this century, we may achieve a peak of the population ageing, the population of the old people, is estimated to be 487 million, taking an increasing proportion of 35% of the whole population in China. Confronting such an enormous group, it is indispensable for us to pay more attention to their psychological state and life quality.

My project will take the old people, who lived in the Small & Medium-Scaled Cities or Towns in the North of Zhejiang Province, as my interviewees, in the form of recording interview, managing to make the old people tell stories about their past living condition and those most impressive things happened to them in the past with their dialects; step by step, using means of conversations let the mixed feelings beneath their heart drip out of their tongue. Meanwhile, we can observe their expressions, actions at the process of their retelling. Furthermore, I will record these conversations and transform them in the form of literary materials so that to do further research on the feeling when they are telling stories and what they have talked about. As a reflection or, more likely, a mirror, for us to see whether their life quality and attitudes are influenced, or what did their sense of happiness come from. Having done much research works on the literary materials abroad on the aspects of the old men’s recession pattern, life quality and self-recognizance. We may draw an initial conclusion, and put forward a possible way of cultivating the old men’s positive psychological state and of promoting their senses of happiness. To some extent, I am looking for a way of improving the life quality of the old men who lived in the Small & Medium-Scaled Cities or Towns in the North of Zhejiang Province, focused mentally. More generally, I may apply my theory about cultivating positive attitudes towards population ageing to other parts around Zhejiang and even our country.

口述历史：对浙江北部中小城镇老年人心态与生活质量的研究

摘要中国社科院发布了《2014年中国社会形势分析与预测》。这本蓝皮书显示，2013年我国60岁及以上老年人口已达2亿。全国老龄办有关负责人近日也指出，今后20年我国将年均增加1000万老年人口；到本世纪中叶将迎来老龄化高峰，老年人口预计达4.87亿，占总人口的比重上升至35%。面对如此庞大的老年群体，他们的养老心态与生活质量是我们不容忽视的。

此项目将浙江北部中小城镇老年人设为采访对象，主要以录音采访的方式，让老年人用方言讲述他们的生活情况以及记忆中最深刻的故事，采用循序渐进，对话引导的方式让老人口述生活中的酸甜，观察老人叙述时的神情、动作，记录下来。并整理成文字材料，研究老人叙述时反映出来的心态和叙述的内容对他们现今生活质量、生活态度的影响和他们现今的幸福感来源。查阅国内外对老人衰老模式、生活质量与自我心态关系的资料，从而得出初步的结论，并结合当地实情提出一个可行的、积极的老年人养老心态以及提高老年人幸福感的方式，以求改善浙江北部中小城镇老年人的生活质量（主要是精神层面）。并可进一步由此推广到浙江省以及全国老人的积极养老心态上。
