Summary/Abstract: Subjective age has been studied in various domains (health, consumption, work), but the works which investigated the subjective age that the students give themselves during their academic development are rare (Pavalache & Rioux, 2014). One-hundred-and-twenty-two Algerian students answered a questionnaire comprising (a) an identification part (b) the subjective age questionnaire by Gana, Alaphilippe and Bailly, (2002) and (c) the questionnaire of subjective age in academic development (Pavalache & Rioux, 2014). The results show that the Algerian students have a tendency to rejuvenate themselves, all the more so if they are of male gender. They show the impact of the societal and cultural factors on subjective age in academic development of university students.
