2. Materials and MethodsImmediately after completing each interview and listening to it several times, the transcripts of the interviews were written on paper and analyzed thematically. In this study, a selective approach was used to extract thematic sentences. In the process of extracting sub-themes and themes, the researcher reviewed each interview several times in order to clarify the themes. After obtaining the sub-themes and themes of each interview, the researcher merged and identified the sub-themes and main themes of the interviews and described the phenomenon of aging in accordance with van Manen’s method [13].3. ResultsIn the present study 10 elderly people (five men and five women) with a mean age of 76.9 years participated.
