    Abstract
    Themes of existence of elderly people are considered in the context of different: different social classes, different residential contexts, different degrees of independence are understood as central components of the differentiated life-worlds. It is shown how significant the subjectively experienced “task character of life” as well as the experience of being needed by others are for satisfaction and a sense of meaning. In addition, risk factors for life satisfaction are identified: these include, above all, isolation and a pronounced need for care. The experience of old people is not solely determined by vulnerability; it also speaks for mental growth and coping skills.
     
    Daseinsthemen alter Menschen werden im Kontext unterschiedlicher Lebenswelten betrachtet: unterschiedliche Sozialschichten, unterschiedliche Wohnkontexte, unterschiedliche Grade von Selbstständigkeit bilden zentrale Komponenten der differenzierten Lebenswelten. Dabei zeigt sich, wie wichtig der erlebte Aufgabencharakter des Lebens sowie die Erfahrung, von anderen gebraucht zu werden, für Zufriedenheit und Sinnerleben sind. Zudem werden Risikofaktoren für Lebenszufriedenheit aufgezeigt: zu diesen zählen vor allem Isolation und ausgeprägter Pflegebedarf. Das Erleben alter Menschen ist nicht allein von Verletzlichkeit bestimmt; es spricht auch für seelisches Wachstum und Bewältigungskompetenz.
