The aim of this study is to explain the prominent concepts in defining the ageing process, the concept of positive ageing, interventions and strategies that promote positive ageing. In order to achieve this objective, articles retrieved using the keywords within the Web of Science, Ebsco, Scopus, Pubmed and Google Scholar databases were subjected to analysis. With the increase in the elderly population and the life expectancy of older adults, it is seen that there is a focus on issues such as how older adults can not only live longer, but also how they can live better and happier in biopsychosocial terms, how their welfare levels can increase, and how to support their aging processes. At this point, the concept of positive ageing emerges as an extension of the positive psychology and positive gerontology movement that focuses on age-specific issues. Positive ageing is a multidimensional concept that combines various characteristics of good ageing such as optimal, healthy, successful, productive and active ageing with many areas such as health, cognition, activity, affect and physical fitness. Looking at the current literature, it is stated that positive ageing is a more inclusive concept that includes concepts such as successful, healthy, active, productive ageing. However, positive ageing should not be interpreted as a term to replace these concepts. It is thought that there is a need for older adults to understand the aging processes and to implement interventions to promote positive aging. It is recommended that more positive ageing research should be carried out to reveal which dimensions of the ageing process are affected by positive psychology principles and how.
