People (N=120) in late adulthood (60-75 years old) who differ in global estimation of their hithero lives took part in the research. Its primary goal was to identity the differences between four groups of seniors with various specificity of life review in the range of coping with old age stress, self-esteem and the level of hope for success. Methods: Four psychological methods were applied in the discussed project, such as: (Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS); (2) Self -Esteem Scale (SES); (3) State Hope Scale (KNS); (4) Life Review Questionnaire (LRQ) created by Izdebski and Polak.Results: Subjects interviewed with various life reviews differed between each other when it came to chose stress coping styles and hope for success, both on the level of general index and its two dimensions. No statistically significant differences in the range of self-esteem were stated. The presented differences referred mainly to people with a totally different life review. Individuals with a very positive life review had less emotional or evasive attitudes towards the problem than those estimating their hitherto life in a vary negative way. They had also a stronger belief in positive achievement of their goals.
