The present study aimed to review the studies related to successful aging in Middle Eastern countries using a systematic review method and a Meta-summary approach to identify the factors affecting successful aging. Forty-three different studies conducted in various Middle Eastern countries over ten years ending in 2023 were subjected to systematic review. After assigning codes and conducting a holistic analysis of the reviewed articles, the extracted cases were analyzed, synthesized, and combined. The results showed that six individual, religious, economic, lifestyle, social, and cultural factors are effective in successful aging. The relevant theories on successful aging that existed in the reviewed studies were studied, and important points such as successful aging theoretical models and the disengagement theory were highlighted as theoretical findings of the research. The findings indicate that physical and mental health, social relationships and support, being with family, having savings and insurance, relying on spirituality, and having a healthy lifestyle are the most important indicators of successful aging in the Middle East.

AbstractThe main purpose of this study was to explain the positive attitude towards addiction through a mechanistic model based on variables such as label, exclusion and feeling the need to use drugs. From a methodological point of view, this quantitative study was an explanatory survey. The statistical population was all the women undergoing treatment in addiction treatment centers of Golestan province in 2021, and 187 valid questionnaires were collected by available sampling method. The test of the research model was done by relying on the structural equation model (Amos26).The results of the hypothesis process showed that the social label directly leads to an increase in social exclusion, then social exclusion has a significant effect on the feeling of needing to use drugs. Furthermore, the feeling of needing to use drugs has a strong influence on the positive attitude towards drugs. In general, the mentioned variables explain 0.69% of the variance of the positive attitude towards drugs. Therefore, a positive attitude towards addiction is a function of feeling the need to use drugs, which itself is a function of exclusion and social label.
