- Summary:
- This survey, conducted by Louis Harris and Associates during June and July 1974, elicited the views of 4,254 respondents on the stereotypes and reality of aging. Two questionnaires were used, one asking 18- to 64-year-olds about their perceptions of how people ages 65 and older felt about aging, and the second asking people ages 65 and older how they actually felt. Demographic characteristics and information regarding attitudes on aging and interests of the aged are also included.
