Peer reviewedAllred, Gladeen B.; Dobson, Judith E. – Elementary School Guidance and Counseling, 1987
Attempted to determine whether there would be a change in 15 sixth graders' attitudes toward aging after intergenerational contact with nursing home residents. Found that increased contact with the elderly during the remotivation group interaction program resulted in a slight improvement in children's perceptions of the elderly. (ABB)
