And knowing how a person evaluates done and lived through, you can set his psychological age. It is sufficient to multiply the "index realizovanna" on the number of years that a person expects to live.
For example, someone believes that his life is half-implemented, and suggests to live only 80 years. His mental age equals 40 years time (0, 5 x 80), regardless of whether 20 or 60 years he in reality.
