摘要
The impact of a 1-day, 5-hr intergeneration workshop in changing elementary and high school students’ attitudes toward older persons was assessed. Results indicated that participation in the program significantly improved young people’s personalized attitudes toward old people and their acceptance of old people. The association between age, gender, and attitudes is also examined. The implications of intergenerational programs for improving attitudes are discussed. © 1991 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
