Japan is the world’s leading super-aged society, with the highest ratio of centenarians per 10,000 people; however, researchers report that fewer older people wish to live longer than those who do not. The most common reason for unwillingness to live long is the perceived burdensomeness of old age on their family. Such negative views on aging affect their physical and psychological health; therefore, the factors for such thoughts should be identified to reconsider it. The data used for the analysis came from 2475 people aged between 50 and 79 living in Japan and were derived from a nationwide random sample survey conducted in 2024. We used ordered logistic regression and tried to find a model that fits the data by applying family norms as an explanatory variable and other demographic variables (e.g., gender and marital status) . People with a strong desire for longevity tended to have conservative views regarding family norms (e.g., younger family members should take care of older family members) .
