The latest age division standard! Criteria for age division of young and old people

People often use youth, youth, middle age and old age to describe a person's age stage. As we grow older, our age stage is also changing. Do you know how to divide it in China's current standards? Let's have a look

China also has its own standards for the division of age groups. In the 1980s, China's relevant departments promulgated China's own age division standards. This standard is divided into five sections, namely childhood, adolescence, youth, middle age and old age.

1. Childhood: 0-6 years old (one year old, the same below)

(1) Infancy 0-3 weeks and months;

(2) The pediatric period was 4 weeks and months to 2.5 years old;

(3) Early childhood 2.5-6 years old.

2. Juvenile: 7-17 years old

(1) The Enlightenment period is 7-10 years old;

(2) The rebellious period was 11-14 years old;

(3) The growth period is 15-17 years old.

3. Youth: 18-40 years old

(1) Adolescence: 18-28 years old;

(2) The mature period is 29-40 years old.

4. Middle aged: 41-65 years old

(1) The mature period is 41-48 years old;

(2) Stable period: 49-55 years old;

(3) The adjustment period is 56-65 years old.

5. Old age: after 66

(1) 67-72 years old at the beginning of aging;

(2) The middle and old age is 73-84 years old;

(3) Old age after 85.

Compared with the age division standard formulated by the World Health Organization, the current age division standard in China is more detailed and clear, which is more in line with China's national conditions. The World Health Organization defines' youth 'as 18-65 years old, which is still unacceptable in terms of the values of Chinese traditional culture. Life has been rare for 70 years. Young Chinese at the age of 65 refuse. However, according to the Chinese standard, the definition of "Youth" is 18-40 years old. In the actual implementation, the definition standard of "Youth" between units is not unified. For example, the Communist Youth League defines' youth 'as 14-28 years old; The National Bureau of statistics defines 15-34 years old; Psychology is defined as 13-35 years old. Benevolent people see benevolence, wise people see wisdom. In the end, I'm afraid how we can achieve reunification depends on the coordination of the government.

Generally speaking, the ancients divided the age in this way: childhood is under the age of 12, and over the age of 12 is called the total angle age of youth. A weak crown at the age of 20 is a youth. Some people think that it is a youth after 18. When you stand at 30, you enter middle age. When you are 40, you are called prime of life. 50 and the fate of God, of course, is old. And 60 carapace, 70 rare. 80 and 90 years old is the oldest old, and 100 years old is the year of aging

World age classification standard:

In 2017, the United Nations World Health Organization (who), headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, made new provisions on the age division standard after measuring the global human quality and average life expectancy. Provide for the introduction of new age segments:

Young people under the age of 44,

Middle aged people aged 45 to 59,

Young and old people aged 60 to 74,

Aged 75 to 89 are the elderly,

People over 90 years old are long-lived.

The division of these five age groups has delayed the human aging period by 10 years, which will have a positive impact on people's mental health and anti-aging will.
