Motivaciones y expectativas de los estudiantes mayores de 55 años en los programas universitarios

The results obtained by both methodologies showed that the main motivations of older students for attending the university program for the first time were to gain broader knowledge, feel active, do something new, increase quality of life, and meet new people. The results of this study are similar to those of previous studies and confirm the findings of other research carried out in Europe and the USA.
