These terms focus on positive aspects of the aging process and do not imply that there is only one way to age successfully. They also use more inclusive language that does not stigmatize those who may not fit traditional definitions of successful aging. "Healthy aging" (B) could also be a good choice, but it may be perceived as more restrictive in terms of physical health. "Adequately aging" (C) and "trajectory-expected aging" (D) are not commonly used terms in the field and do not convey positive or holistic aspects of aging.
