About This Book
The survey was conducted by Louis Harris and Associates during June and July 1974. This study contains the views of 4,254 respondents on the stereotypes and reality of aging. Two questionnaires were used, one asking 18 to 64-year-olds their perceptions of how people 65 and over felt about aging, and the second asking people 65 and over how they actually felt. Demographic characteristics, and information regarding attitudes on aging and interests of the aged are also included. There were four national samples: 1) cross-section of approximately 1,500 adults 18 years and older, 2) an oversample of approximately 2,400 adults aged 65 years and over, 3) an oversample of approximately 360 adults aged 55-64, and 4) an oversample of approximately 200 blacks aged 65 and over.
