Ageism, Sex, and Age: A Factorial Survey Approach.
Baker, Paul M.
Canadian Journal on Aging, v2 n4 p177-84 Dec 1983
Uses the factorial survey approach to measure directly the perceived status of various ages, and of both males and females. Results indicate that there is an inverted U-curve of status across the life span, and that the perceived status of females is lower than that of males in the midlife period. (Author/CT)
