Abstract
The aging process of the population is a natural demographic process, which is gaining more and more intensity both in Poland, Czechia and other countries. This is a demographically important issue, as it is related to many aspects of life, such as the social care system, the healthcare system or the pension system. The article presents selected demographic coefficients in the traditional approach, in which the construction of measures is based on determining the participation of elderly people in the total population or reflecting the relationship between different age groups. The article also presents coefficients in potential (static) terms, in which not only the number of age groups is important, but also how many years a person or age group can still survive. The values of population ageing coefficients in terms of potential and traditional demography were calculated on the example of Poland and Czechia.
