摘要：

This study evaluated knowledge and attitudes of undergraduates regarding nutrition and health of the. aged and students' intentions of pursuing career involvement with older adults. The participants evaluated were undergraduates from three mid-western universities.(n = 1,755). The majority of those surveyed were uninformed and unlikely to pursue career involvement with older adults. Possible explanations for these findings are discussed.
