The current study aimed to show the moderating and mediating effects of transcendence and death anxiety in the relationship between ego-integrity and life satisfaction to improve life satisfaction in the elderly experiencing physical, psychological, and socioeconomic changes due to various losses. The participants in this study included 144 elderly aged 60 years and over. The Results can be summarized as follows: A significant mediating effect of transcendence was found in the relationship between self-integrity and life satisfaction. A significant moderating effect of death anxiety was found in the relationship between the self-integrity and transcendence. The tendency that ego-integrity indirectly increased life satisfaction with mediated by transcendence was promoted in less death anxiety. Consequently, in order to increase the life satisfaction of the elderly, it is necessary to re-examine the meaning of life and to accept of the past life for promoting ego-integrity and transcendence. Efforts are needed to lower the level of death anxiety, and for this, programs to understand death in old age and resolve death anxiety are needed.
